A: HIYA! A quick message before you read this special, yes, I am aware that there is WAY more responding to reviews than there is writing. HOWEVER, there is foreshadowing and semi-kinda-spoiler things throughout the bold. So if you usually don't read through it, you PROBABLY should. Since this entire special is going to be the only time that I allow this much foreshadowing. So yeah...ENJOY!

Lily: HELLO EVERYBODY AND WELCOME TO THE FMA DAY SPECIALLLL!

Myra: WOOOOO! *throws confetti*

Lily: If you all aren't aware already, today, October 3rd, is FMA day! And you might be wondering: Lily, why is this chapter so short? Well, let me tell ya. So, this chapter contains semi-spoilers! Soooo...YAH. It's a special. There's a reason the chapter name is what it is. (A/N: I haven't made the chapter title yet XD)

Snowfur: And before you ask, yes, we're responding to reviews in this chapter. So...if you don't want to be semi-spoiled, just skip to the bold part at the bottom.

Ed: Yeah that's great but, where the hell were you?! You left me with them, *points to Roy, Maes, Truth, Ling and Envy* AGAIN!

Lily: READ THE LAST POST. And...when did YOU get here? *looks at Envy*

Envy: I was bored.

Lily: *sweat drops and deadpans*

Anni: *pokes head in* Did we start yet?

Arin: *nods*

Anni: *eyes widen**looks at the chapter**smirks* This chapter is MY LIFE. LITERALLY.

Lily: ...we still have to wait a while for that, Anni.

Anni: 'A while' being like two chapters.

Lily: Whatever...(A/N: This is SUPER random guys but, who else tried human transmutation last night with hopes of going to Amestris? I DID. I have no life, I know...)

Truth: *looks at the A/N* I'm aware you did that.

Lily: Huh? Who're you talking to?

Truth: Hm? I was talking to someone?

Lily: ALSO! As this is a special, I have an announcement for everyone!

SEMI-SPOILER WARNING:

Lily: There are two more MAJOR, and I mean MAJOR, feels moments. Possibly more.

Ed: *eyes widen* Wait, are you talking about m-

Lily: SHUSH. I'm not saying anymore. Until next FMA day.

Maes: Well...A-HWriting does NOT own FMA! All rights go to the original authors and producers and people.

Lily: And with that...ENJOY THE SPECIAL!

It was around mid-summer, in a small town in the state of Maryland. A 5 year old girl with light blond hair runs around in her backyard, chasing a small white dog. The dog jumps on her, causing her to topple over into the grass. She laughs, petting the dog. The sound of grass rustling causes the dog to stop moving, perking it's ears up to focus on the noise. The girl stops laughing and stares at the dog, also listening for the noise.

"...yes, of course! Don't worry Mrs. Summers, I can handle anything!" A young female voice says from in front of the house, followed by laughter. The girl picks up the dog as it starts growling, shushing it. She walks along the side of the house, peeking over the edge to see the source of the voice. Talking to her mother was an average-sized teenage girl with long, dark brown hair. She seemed to be around 11 years old, and the little girl recalls seeing her a few times around the neighborhood.

The older girl turns around, spotting her. She yelps in surprise, stepping back to hide herself. The dog squirms in her hands, wanting to chase after the older girl. The girl smiles, slowly walking towards the side of the house. "Hello? Is anyone there?" She asks, and the little girl freezes in place. The dog takes it's chances and jumps out of the girl's arms and runs to the older girl, barking loudly. The little girl's eyes widen in shock, and she immediately runs after the dog. "No! Bad girl! Come back!" She yells, trying to catch the dog.

As she runs, she bumps into something and she steps back, rubbing her head. She looks up to see the older girl staring down at her. She yelps and jumps, covering her face in embarrassment. "S-Sorry…" she mutters quietly. The older girl laughs. "It's alright, it happens." The younger girl looks back up at her, eyeing her carefully.

"Who are you?" She asks, the dog now sniffing the older girl's legs. The girl laughs, gently pushing the dog away. "I'm your new babysitter!" She says, smiling. The little girl's eyes widen. She then huffs and looks away. "I don't need a babysitter…" The older girl laughs. "Independent, are we?" She looks at the little girl with a smile. "Here, let me tell you a secret." The little girl's eyes widen and she steps closer to the older girl.

"I'm not one to follow rules. Don't make too much of a mess and I'll let you have free reign, okay?" She asks, and the little girl nods excitedly. "Also...have you heard of something called YouTube?" The little girl nods timidly. "Mmhmm. I haven't watched anything on there though…" she mutters. The older girl smirks. "That doesn't sound very convincing."

"M...Maybe a few videos! But...don't tell mom…" she mutters. The older girl laughs. "I won't." She holds out her hand to the little girl, and she gingerly takes it. "What's your name?" The older girl asks.

"Oh! Um...my name is Lily. Lily Summers. What's yours?"

"My name is Anni Sila. It's nice to meet you, Lily."

Everything goes black. The sound of a heart monitor suddenly screeches through the darkness, and the scream of a girl follows.

Lily gasps, sitting up on the couch. She looks around, panting slightly. That dream...she thinks to herself, resting her head in her hands. I haven't had something that vivid in ages. She sighs and slowly stands up, looking around her dorm. It was extremely messy, with clothes and pieces of paper thrown everywhere.

Anni...she thinks to herself, a pang of guilt and sadness stabbing her in the chest. Tears threaten to fall out of her eyes, but she forces them back. "I guess that dream reopened an old wound, huh?" She says, thinking out loud. Lily takes a deep breath to calm herself, and she stares out the window. She watches the people rushing by in the streets below, buying various things from vendors and talking in groups.

Lily spots a group of soldiers gathered at the entrance to HQ, running out to various places. She furrows her eyebrows, and she starts to watch them more closely. Soon, she sees an unmistakable bright red cloak followed by a large suit of armor exit HQ, running with the stream of soldiers. It clicked in Lily's brain about what was going on. Maria Ross had escaped from jail.

She sighs and walks to the couch, grabbing her light brown coat. She puts it on, the black Flamel symbol on the back shining in the sunlight. It's time to make a move, she thinks and heads out the door.

Anni: *stares at writing*

Arin: *sings* Hello darkness my old friend~

Snowfur: *holds back laughter*

Al: ...that clears up things a little bit.

Myra: YUP!

Lily: *smirks* I can't wait to see everyone's reaction to what I have planned...

Ling: Now you're just teasing them...

Lily: I know. MWAHAHA! TREMBLE IN FEAR AT MY AUTHOR POWER!

Ed: *deadpans* Maniac...

Lily: SHUT THE HELL UP SHORTY! And GREAT. A sad song just came up on my Vocaloid playlist. THAT'S JUST PERFECT.

Anni: Is it my theme song?

Lily: Yup.

Al: ...Um...shouldn't we start responding to the reviews?

Lily: Oh. RIGHT.

Roy: The first review is from gsunny6. They said:

Well... As a member of them, the Dramatic Arts are awesome, so I give you a high five and also, I know how school is.

Lily: YEAH! *high fives gsunny6* And yes, school sucks. (A/N: Man, I'm writing a LOT of author's notes. Meh. But yeah, preparing for high school and stuffs. Sh-Shut up! I know, I'm in eighth grade! WH-WHATEVER.)

Envy: Shouldn't you just respond to their other review while we're on this one?

Ed: The palm tree bastard is helping?!

Snowfur: What has this world come to?!

Envy: *glares at them*

Ling: Well, gsunny6's other review is this:

1) you're doing what half the people on this site do with their life. 2) you should look up 'pokemon go honest trailer on youtube. 3) you nerds do know what I meant by that question right? (nerds is a compliment, btws.)

Lily: True. *stares at the review* DAMNIT! THAT'S WHAT I HAVEN'T WATCHED YET!

Arin: Yup. The new pokemon games, Pokemon Sun and Moon.

Lily: I'm torn in my decision now...Rockruff is like, my new favorite pokemon. And I like the Sun evolution better. But I like Lunala better than Solgaleo. UUUGHHH.

Ed: *rolls eyes* The next review is from ThatAwkwardChick. She says:

HAVE ANY OF YOU WATCHED SOUL EATER?

...

Ahem. Sorry. Really obsessed with that at the moment. Anyway...

Yaaaay! Canon ships! Edly, and Snowling, and Alra (don't remember if that last one is correct, but yolo), and so on and so forth. I don't really have much to say here except for the ship thing and telling you that you all are doing a fabulous job! Also: 'Murica!

Lily: *eyes sparkle* YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. MEDUSA IS MAH FAV. AND BLACK STAR.
