previously on "The World Beyond the Gate":While searching for Edward, our hero Alphonse ran into somone he never thought he'd see again...Maes Hughes! After having a chat with him Al vowed to not only bring Ed back but Hughes as well!What adventures await our young Elric brother in this chapter?And who will he meet next?Will who he meets give him a clue as to where Edward is?So many unanserwed questions and only 2 will be anserwed!

"You know Al,it's getting pretty late.You sure you wanna leave now?"asked Hughes looking out the window.It was already sundown.Al smiled"I'm sure!Well,bye!"Al was about to leave when Maes stopped him."Alphonse if you ever need a place to stay you can come back here if you want."Al grinned."Thanks!I'll remember that!"He then waved and walked away.While Alphonse was walking down a dirt path, he noticed a playground with one little girl with long brown hir tied in two braids and a blue dress.The little girl looked oddly familiar.He decided to go there to tell her that she shouldn't be out so late.When he got closer he notecied that the little girl was none other than Nina Tucker!Al ran up to her and hugged her tightly.NIna looked at him like he was crazy.Al got down on his knees and patted her head gently while smileing.he then spoke"Nina,do you remember me?Alphonse?Alphonse Elric?Ed Elric's little brother?"Nina thought for a moment then smiled brightly."Of course I remember you big brother!" ( In case you didn't know in the anime Nina calls Al 'Big brother')Al was almost moved to tears to see that Nina remembered him.Al then stood and asked"Nina,why are you out so late and where's Alexander?""Well,he ran off somewhere a while ago and I was looking for him,then go back to the orphanage."Al looked puzzled."Orphanage?"Nina smiled"Yep!Me and Alexander live at an orphanage with some other kids and sis!"Al looked at her con fused"Sis?"Nina nodded again."Sis is who takes care of us!She's really nice!and she's an alchemist just like you and little big brother!"(little big brother Edward.)Al looked slightly surprised to here that there are alchemists in this world to."Well,I'll help you find Alexander then I'll take you to the orphanage."With that being said the two headed into town hand and hand.

half an hour later

Eventually they found Alexander in an alley barking at a cat.When Nina ran to Alexander the cat fled and Alexander started wagging his tail happily.Nina put her small arms around the pooch's neck causeing Alexander to lick her face."I'm so glad we found you Alexander!Look who elese is here!Big Brother!"Alexander ran to Al,sniffed him jumped up and knocked Al down and started licking his face."Ha-ha!Stop Alexander!that-haha!-tickles!"Alexander got off and Al stood up."Let's go back now Nina.""O.k."Nina replied.Then Al,Nina,and Alexander walked back to the orphanage together.
