Leaving the ones you love is a tough choice, but it has to come someday. But who would expect it to come at such a young age? You may not have experienced being forced away from your family, but I have. Its the worst thing that can happen to anyone in this small world, and Fate happened to choose me. Hohenhiem was my father, and he was a good parent. I only knew my mother, Trisha Elric, for about 3 years. Then, one night, he left with me in his arms on a journey into the more rural parts of Resembool. Father trained my alchemy skills to the level of a State Alchemist, but it was my decision to join the military or not, and I chose "No". There really was no reason why I chose No. My instincts had told me to choose that. Â Father said my choice was different from my twins, Edward, and younger brother, Alphonse. They wanted to be State Alchemists for reasons that I did not know.
My story really started when I was 10 years old; I was with my very best friend Patricia Robertson, a rich girl with big dreams. She'd go crazy if you said "Powerful" because she loves that word. She always thought she had powers, like flying and all that. In fact, because of her crazy attribute, I found out that she could be my worst enemy. Let my story begin.
A scream was heard from outside Patricia's mansion, and everyone ran out to the back yard to see what was wrong. Once seeing the dreaded scene, everyone screamed, except for Elysse and Patricia. "Oh, my lord!" cried one of the maids. Blood was everywhere on the table outside the backyard, where Patricia had been injured. A knife was stabbed into her hand, and in addition to that, the blade had gone through the table! When Elysse pulled the knife out, blood started to spill all over the table. "Patricia, I'm sorry. I wasn't looking!" Elysse wailed, her eyes starting to get teary. Her clothes had specks of blood on them. They had been watching the men at the bar using knives to try to stab their victims hand while both were drunk.
"It's alright child" Mrs. Robertson soothed, while putting her hand on Elysse's shoulder.
"We know you didn't mean to do it. A little girl like you wouldn't do such a thing like this on purpose. Patricia has known you for years. We all know it was an accident and we don't mind at all, but with Patricia injured like this, she wouldn't be able to play with you in a couple of weeks." Mr. Robertson explained, while taking Patricia's hand and examining it. Patricia grew angry, pushed her dad away, grabbed the knife, and charged at Elysse. Her servants quickly grabbed her and held her tight.
"Patricia! What were you thinking?" questioned Mrs. Robertson, her hands to her mouth.
Patricia replied with a little smirk on her face, "What else, dear Mother? I want to kill her! A pay back! She stabs me, and I stab her back. It's a great deal!" She then turned to Elysse, her eyes filled with a crazed passion. She insanely laughed, "I promise you Miss Elric, I'm going to hunt you down! Every step of the way I'll be watching you! Don't forget that I keep promises and never break them, so keep a look out..." Patricia began to laugh like a devil and everyone thought she was going psycho, but she wasn't. It was true; she did want to kill Elysse. Elysse fled, tears streaming down her face. Once she reached her house, she ran up the stairs grabbed some money and ran back down the stairs. Her father was out in the market, and he would never see her vanish. Before she walked out of the door, she turned to face her house, and saw that she'd be leaving her home and never coming back. With that she ran off, disappearing into the distance.
Years passed and Elysse was now 15. She was having a great time exploring the world. She had been to every city in Amestris, and even to Liore and Ishbal. Because of her personality, sense of judgement, and alchemy skills, she always had food and shelter every night. Sometimes, Elysse felt lucky that she never became a State Alchemists. Apparently, they were called Dogs of the Military, and hated everywhere. One sunny morning, she was browsing the shops when she saw someone familiar. "Hmm" she wondered, thoughts flowing to her head. The boy she was looking at was standing next to a suit of armor. He was quite short, but he had the same golden eyes as she had, and the same color hair. She finally figured it out. It was her twin, Edward! But where was Alphonse? And who was in that suit of armor?
"EDWARD! I MISSED YOU!" Elysse screamed, bolting up to her brother. She hugged him so hard, and nearly squeezed the life out of him.
"Who the heck are you!" Edward wriggled out of Elysses grasp. He inspected the insane girl. Golden eyes, blonde hair, the same signature cow-lickit couldnt behis best playmate next to Winrynot after so many years.
"E-Elysse?" Edward asked. As Elysse nodded her head up and down feverishly, Al commented, "Brother We havent seen Elysse for about 12 years ever since dad took her away that one night" They all suddenly mashed into a group hug. Who wouldnt, especially if it was a long lost sibling? Elysse started asking questions rapidly, and Edward and Alphonse told the whole story, from her disappearance, to how much they hated Hohenheim for leaving, to the attempted human transmutation, to where they were standing now, etc. For a few days, Elysse couldn't get it off her mind that they were back together but soon, she faced the fact, and joyfully went along with her brothers on their journey.
