Summary: Rated T for blood loss. "Sometimes the most amazing things can happen...sometimes, no matter how loosely or tightly you hold onto him or her, your love, your dream, he or she will slip right through your fingers."

Disclaimer: If I owned Full Metal Alchemist, the ending wouldn't have been so darn sad and unresolved. Man I love this series.


One day, they left. And only one came back. The mechanic was devastated. She cried and cried. But she refused to believe that he was dead. She waited at the train station every day. His commanding officer took care of her. And she was adamant that he'd come back. After all, he promised.

Years passed, and he still hadn't come back. His brother watches over her because he knows that's what he would've wanted. But they tell her that he's not coming back. She listens patiently, but she knows better. She has the ring to prove it. Although she now wears it on a chain around her neck instead of on her finger. She has the hope of tomorrow. He'll come back and they'll have the family they both wanted so badly. She'll tell him of her love, and he'll accept. He'll decide whether or not to stay in the military. They'll get married and have a son. That is her dream and her reality.

Their love transcends time, space, reality, even dimensions. He will come back one day, and they will be happy. She will be happy.

Oh, I never told you who I was. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am in love with the Full Metal Alchemist. My name…is Winry Rockbell.
