A/N: Sorry I took so long!! It wasn't because I have three chapters and three reviews! It's because I lost my train of thought and have been writing other fics. I should work harder. I'm sorry. Please, review. I don't know what you want if you don't review.

Fiona868: Hey, don't worry. I'll do Germany for ya. 3

Disclaimer: I do not own FMA.

Spoilers; if you haven't watched the Fullmetal Alchemist; Conqueror of Shamballa movie yet, go watch it before you read this! It's not so much a spoiler but yeah.

Brother wasn't always the smartest alchemist, no one ever told him to think before he'd done something. Well, today is the anniversary of the most stupid thing my brother has ever done. He gave himself for me. I can't understand what runs through his mind when he only worries about me. Sometimes, I sit back and wonder what would have happened if my brother hadn't left me all alone. Where would we be now?

I got up and left my beloved window seat, which I'd sat at for weeks at a time just thinking. Walking out, I saw Winry sitting at the table drinking water and staring ahead, lost in thought. She'd been like that for a day or so, when I told her she knew nothing about my brother. "You'll never understand! You didn't see all the things he's done for me! You don't know anything!" Her memory is better than I'd imagined. "Hey, Winry." I said, sitting down at the table and flashing her a smile. "Good morning." She replied, still staring ahead. Moments passed before I couldn't stand the silence anymore.

"Winry, I'm sorry. I didn't mean what I said." Standing up, she smiled at me and scooted her water in front of me. "You honestly think I'm thinking about that? You're too cute sometimes." She walked out the door, going outside to play with Den, leaving me awestruck. She acted solemn just to get to me? Ouch.

Walking outside, I saw her and Den sitting outside. Apparently, she was reminding him of all the tricks he knew. "Shake." She said, and the dog lifted his paw and dropped it in her hand. I smiled and walked over, kneeling next to her. "I want to go to Central and see a few people, okay?" She nodded simply and patted my head. "I'll go too." She took Den inside and went to get some stuff. "How long will we be there?" She called from the back of the house. "I'm not sure, bring a lot of stuff." I already had everything ready, I always did. I was all too ready for my brother to show up at the door and take me on some mission.

"Hey, Ed." Alfons said, stepping down the stairs slowly. I laughed out loud at how careful he was being. He'd fallen earlier and was now taking cautious steps every where he went. "Not funny." He snapped, before even getting my attention. I appeared to be reading a book, but really I was watching him above the edge of the book. "What are you doing?" I asked as he stepped off the last step. "You aren't going to fall anymore, Al." He looked at me and shook his head. "That's not why I'm being careful..." Of course not. I thought, smiling to myself. "Alright then. What do you need me for?" Alfons tapped his chin a bit then looked at me. "What do you mean, what do I need you for? You remember that phone call you got? Three days ago? He called again and he needs you now." I sighed heavily. "Are you serious?" It was a retorical question but Alfons answered it anyways. "Yes."

Slamming the book shut I flashed him a smile. "Alright, I'm going. I bet you just want to get me out of the house." He'd been trying to get me out since I'd come here. Not because he wanted me out for good, but because every time I'm home, I get lost in thought and start staring at things. It would be okay at first, until I'd talk to myself. Yeah, according to Alfons, I talk to myself. So I got up and walked out the door, without saying good bye.

Alphonse's P.O.V

Together we stand, hand in hand. We're not going to let anything stop us. It's Ed and I together, finally. All is one. One is all. Life only flows in one direction. You and I are only a tiny part of that great flow. One part of the whole. All is the world. One is me. Smiling, he wrapped his arms around me and held me close. I could tell, he wanted to cry, but he wasn't going to. He never did. Not around me, at least. He'd come back to this world, and I'd followed. He was angry at first but I assured him it'd be the same here, only we'd be trying to get back home, we'd work together.

"So, brother?" I mumbled, looking around this new place. It hardly seemed different, and people seemed to know Ed well, which made it even less different. He looked over at me and smiled. "Something you need, Al?" I shook my head, he must have only heard my voice rather than what I'd said. I felt nervous. He'd told me about Alfons Heiderich, but if he died as Ed was leaving, wouldn't it be weird for him to walk around introducing me as Al? Did anyone even know? "Brother?" I asked again. "Yeah?" He replied, looking ahead. "Does anyone know about the other world?" He nodded slowly. "I'm sure a lot of people do. But most of them are gone... so you don't have to worry about that. No one believes the alchemy part. Only the people who actually survived the fight. Very few." I smiled. "Good... hey, brother?" He stopped and looked over, leaning against a wall. "Yeah?" Looking down, I felt weird to say it in public but I smiled. He was my brother and that's how people would take it. "I love you."

A/N: Yes, that was crappy. Feel free to flame. I know some of you will anyways. This time I need at least TWO reviews on this chapter before I make another chapter. Have fun reading it.
