Disclaimer: I don't own fullmetal alchemist and that saddens me so, but I do own any OC's in this fanfic.

Note: I know that this should be at the end of the chapter but oh well. I just need to say a few things. First of all, this isn't one of those you better rate or I'm not going to finish the story deals. I find that rude and obnoxious. Second of all, sorry if some characters are OOC at times. Every fanfic has some characters at least a little OOC so its not a huge deal. Lastly, I accept flames of any sort. It doesn't matter to me if you send them or not. It's someone's opinion and no matter how bad they are, go ahead and send them. P.S.: I suck at making names up so I'm using different friends' names. Oh and if you have any ideas,feel free to send them to me. I will credit you with the idea. Oh! and I don't know if this is going to form into a Mary Sue or not. I'm going to write this and see where it takes me.

P.S.S.:ok i know that the details are rather sketchy right now but aren't they always at first when it comes to anything fma related?

Maggie Hope had been running down a seemingly endless hallway with many twists and turns. It was dark and she could barely see. It couldn't get much darker. There was a large door ommitting a strange light at the very end of the hallway. It possessed something that scared her and yet fascinated her at the same time. Maggie was getting closer to the door now and she could see strange engravings that lay on it. She had only seen those engravings once before and that was on her favorite television series; Fullmetal Alchemist. Maggie's eyes widened as she realized what she was staring at. It was the gate. As the hallway's end grew nearer and nearer with every step, she could hear voices from the other side of the gate. They were muffled and barely audiable. When Maggie came upon the gate, she abruptly stopped. Slowly, Maggie's hand neared the gate for she was attempting to open it. Her hand must've been a few centimeters away from it when she abruptly stopped. She heard someone calling her name. "Maggie"...the voice eerily said.

"Wha...what do you want from me? How do you know my name?"

"Maggie..." the voice repeated again.

Maggie looked around for the speaker but found no one. At this point, she was scared stiff. She was waiting for one of her friends to pop out and yell "gotcha!". That moment never came.

"Maggie..." the voice began again, this time with more authority

"Maggie..."

Maggie started to cry. She was scared and she knew it. How was she going to get out of there? Was she going to live? She's near the gate so is she dead? These all were questions racing through her head at lightspeed. Then,something she never would've expected happened. She heard her friend,Monica's voice.

"Maggie!" Monica said.

"Help me!" Maggie screamed.

"Help..." Maggie mumbled in her sleep.

Monica just sighed. "Honestly..." she whispered under her breath.

"Maggie look! Edward Elric is here! I don't know how it's possible! Roy is here too!" Monica said in a desperate attempt to awake her sleeping friend.

At this Maggie shot up. "ED AND ROY ARE HERE?" Maggie yelled.

Maggie was a Roy fangirl through and through. It was about the same with Ed.

She looked around expecting to see Ed and Roy. Instead she saw her classmates staring at her trying hard to hold back laughing fits. She had fallen asleep in History class...again. The rest of the class she sat slumped in her seat, thinking that she was going to die from embarrassment. 'I can't believe I did that and I don't think that I can take people staring at me like they are much longer.' The bell rang a few seconds after she thought that. 'Saved by the bell.'

Maggie was about to leave the classroom with Monica when the teacher stopped her.

"Margaret,can I see you for a moment?"

"Uh...Sure."

'Oh no. I'm in for it this time. It's all because of those damned dreams I keep having' Maggie thought.

"Margaret, you've been falling asleep in class everyday for awhile and it's becoming a big problem."

'Your telling me.' Maggie thought.

The teacher continued. Her normally stiff and sour face became soft and caring.

" Is everything ok at home? Your usually a good student and your the last person I'd expect to do this."

"I'm fine."

"Are you sure? I'm just concerned about your well being."

"Yeah. Things have been kind of nuts at home these past few weeks but it's finally starting to calm down." Maggie said as she put on a smile.

"Well alright. If you have any problems just come and talk to me. That's what I'm here for."

"Don't worry I will. I better get going. Bye!" Maggie said as she ran out the door.

The rest of her day was fairly quiet. She went home and fed her dog,Black Hayate(go figure),finished some homework,and fell asleep. It may have been Friday night but she was tired and couldn't stay up later than 8:00. She soon drifted off in a deep sleep...

Maggie had been walking down the strange tunnel again but this time she hadn't been running. The end just seemed getting closer and closer to her by the second. She felt dizzy and weak. Maggie wanted to run away from the gate but couldn't. She couldn't move. It was as if she was paralized.

When she was in front of the gate, everything stopped. Maggie watched in horror as multiple hands shot out and pulled her inside. As she was being pulled farther and farther into the gate,she could feel a lot of information that she never knew being poured into her head. She could also hear someone screaming. They sounded scared. She soon realized that that person screaming was her.

Maggie could see an end to the long "tunnel" that she went through. Those creatures set her down on the entrance(or exit in this case) to the gate. But before they did, they took something in equivalent value for the knowledge that she gained. The next thing she knew, the creatures were tearing off her right arm. She started screaming again,this time louder than before. That physicially hurt her. 'I thought that you couldn't feel pain in dreams ,but I felt that. It's as if that was real. It couldn't be...could it?' Maggie pondered.

The next thing she knew Maggie was falling into darkness...
