A young girl walked down the streets of central, clutching a golden necklace. The red stone shone brightly under her hands. "What the hell is wrong with this thing!" she growled to herself. "It's never done this before!" her dark brown eyes dilated as she looked directly at it. She heard her stomach growling and slipped her hand in her pocket. "Nothing…" she mumbled, then turned her attention towards a hot dog stand. "Well………" she said to herself. "If I don't get caught, it's alright……..yeah…………………………right." she said to herself and snuck up behind him, not realizing that she was directly in front of HQ. She reached for a hotdog and was about ready to run away until he turned around.

"Stop thief!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, his voice was gruff.

The girl wheeled around and looked at him, before beginning to dart away, not realizing the patter of feet behind her. One sounded normal, and the other had a strange metallic ring. Suddenly she sped up , and looked back, still running. Before long, she managed to run straight into a poll. She put her hand to her forehead and she laid sprawled out on the concrete. "Great……..now it's bleeding? I knew it, I really gotta stop getti-" she was stopped as a pair of amber eyes stared into hers.

"What the hell were you doing!" he asked. "Stealing! In front of central no less, where'd you get that kind of self confidence!" he asked angrily.

"Well, I-I was hungry, and I'm broke………..and I-I didn't have any cash…..!" She said defending herself, trying to run away as she pushed herself up, her brown, wavy hair falling in her face. Her black tank top looked tattered and old and it showed her belly button. Her baggy beige shorts looked like men's clothes and she tried darting away from him. He suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"STOP RUNNING AWAY!" he screamed as a red light surrounded them. "What the hell are you doing!"

The girl looked him straight in the eye. "I didn't DO anything!" she screamed. "It's my stone! I-it's been acting up!" she yelled angrily.

"Well what's happening?" he asked.

"Well, gee, If I knew that then I wouldn't be screaming bloody murder as we travel into oblivion, now would I?" she asked. "No, I'd do something to stop it!"

Just as she said that, they fell out onto some kind of porch. The girl looked around. "Where the hell are we?"

"I should be asking YOU that question!" The boy yelled, his red overcoat blowing in the wind along with his blonde braide. "You're the one who brought us here!" His black leather clothes shined de to the way the sun hit them.

The girl got up. "ME!" she growled. "YOU'RE the one who touched me!" She growled. "And obviously we're going to have to be here for a while." Something suddenly popped into her mind, a name. "So deal with it, Edward Elric!"

Ed looked at her strangly. "How do you know my name?"

"I just do!" growled the girl. "And since we're gonna have to deal with each other, MY name's Kristy." She said, just as the door swung open.

A tall man stood there, wearing a kimono. He had black hair and pale skin. "Who are you and what are you doing here?" he asked. "Are you one of Tohru's friends?" Kristy and Ed looked at each other.

"Well, I'm Kristy, and this is Ed" Kristy said pointing to Ed. "But I dunno what we're doing here, or who Tohru is…" she said simply as a pale, brown eyed girl with long brown hair came to the door. She was wearing a dark blue sailor suit school uniform.

"H-hello!" she stuttered, smiling. "Would you like to come in and have tea? I just made some." Kristy and Ed nodded.

"Yes, thank you!" They said in unison and got up and went inside. "Where is this?" Kristy asked.

"This is the Sohma house, in Japan, why?" Tohru asked, still smiling as Kristy and Ed looked at each other, wide eyed, then back at her.

They once again spoke in unison, nearly screaming. "We're WHERE!"
