The Soul of a Shinigami Chapter 4

Alchemy can't solve everything

Maka

A few minutes after the mysterious boy, Ed I think, passed out there was a loud knocking at the door.

"I thought you guys knew better then to keep a big star waiting!" I then whispered to Soul.

"Lock your room." So he did then I opened the door. Everyone walked in and sat down. But just as we sat down we heard Ed regain consciousness. Crap.

"What…happened…?"

"Hey Soul, is that a stalker?" Black*Star asked when Ed opened the door and walked into the living room. He was all wobbly, like a drunk or hung-over person.

"Who's that?"

"Hey Soul! How about you explain everything!"

"It's not cool to tell other people to do things for you."

"Fine, this is someone who randomly appeared in our apartment."

"What?" Everyone said at once.

"Does anyone know what made me pass out, I forgot." He then fell onto one of the couches.

"This." Then Soul's right arm turned into a scythe blade.

"Oh, that, THAT'S NOT NORMAL!" He perplexedly screamed."WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU?"

"A weapon, if that's your question. Besides, it's normal here."

"Yeah, half of us are weapons." Then they all transformed into weapons and their meisters caught them.

"HOLY CRAP! WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PLACE?"

"Nothing." All the weapons changed back. "Besides, you claim you're an alchemist, what's that?"

"Do you have paper?" I handed him some.

"Here" He folded his hands, as if he were praying, then blue lightning shot out of his hands. Like a soul wavelength. All the paper had magically become a small, floating blimp.

"How did you do that?"

"Alchemy." Black*Star then nearly passed out.

"How come his wavelength is special? I thought mine was better than his…"

Al

It has been a few hours since Ed was sucked into the portal. I was now waiting in a military office while alchemists were doing research. Mustang walked up to me.

"We've scanned and scanned and scanned the area, but nothing has come up."

"Come on, there must be something!"

"There's no evidence of alchemy anywhere." Medusa smiled.

"That's because, no alchemy was used. You fools. I found a way to use reality and portal magic. They can't scan for magic. They don't know it exists."

"There has to be something! A transmutation circle on the wall! Anything!"

"If a transmutation circle was drawn it was either sucked up or erased. There is no evidence, I'm sorry."

Ed was explaining where he came from.

"Then we made sure we had all the elements necessary, we had them all. Except something for the soul. Because of that, the alchemy went horribly wrong. I lost my right arm and left leg, but my brother Al lost his whole body. I bound his soul to a suit of armor, so now he's just a walking armor suit."

"That would be really creepy." Black*Star said imagining it.

"Black*Star, don't be rude."

"Oh, sorry."

"How did you get here then?"

"Well, Al and I were sent to investigate this portal thing and I got to close and wound up on that guy's bed."

"I have a name, you know."

"Sorry, what is it?"

"Soul."

"Um, okay."

"So, what will you do now?"

"I don't know."

Chapter 5; coming soon ;)

Title: Finding a way back home

A note from the author:

Dear those who read or write fanfiction because their relatives are not here yet,

Happy lame excuse for candy day!. Yep, I'm incredibly bored. No one has showed up for dinner yet. How'd you like the story? I liked Ed's rage at weapons. ;). Sorry to Al, I know there isn't much of him in this chapter. It's just Ed's side is more interesting at the moment. Once the alchemy world discovers magic there will be more over there. Till then, not much.

I'm not dead!
