Chapter 3: Loss
"Who are you?" Ed asked, confused.
I stared at him, stunned by the question.
What was it? Why didn't he know me? Or us, for that matter?
He must be joking, I decided. Taking in a deep breath, I gave him the same stern look a mother would give to her naughty child.
"Ed... that wasn't funny." I said.
He continued to look at me, not a drop of humor in his eyes.
"Ed?" He repeated, playing with the sound. "Is that my name?"
The way he looked and said that finally convinced me he didn't remember me, or anything in general.
Al, having been silent for so long, finally spoke up.
"Don't you remember me, Ed? Your brother?" His voice was so soft when he said it... he refused to believe Edward had a bad case of amnesia. I could tell he was doing everything he could not to cry, yet he was losing; His eyes had begun to water.
I began to cry too. Here we have Ed, back in our home... yet he doesn't remember a single thing. Not a single memory of us... it was like trying to get a stranger to trust you...
Ed paused, thinking about what Al had said, then shook his head.
"What do you remember then?" Al asked.
The I saw his eyes widen as Al asked this. He stared, frozen before finally telling us what he knew.
"All I remember..." He paused to sigh. "All I remember is something called... The Gate."

So it's still short... I'm sorry, but this is how it was...
