You wanted another chapter, so here it is. I am sorry to keep you guys waiting like this, but I have to work during the days and don't have access to a computer for most of the day. Enjoy this epic chapter anyway.
Alphonse was following Ozpin, his armor almost too loud given the circumstances. He was thrilled to be headed to the alchemy library. It was his understanding that most of the professors at one point were alchemists. Ozpin himself still practiced alchemy from time to time. The subject was recently forbidden though, due to massive damage to the town of Vale and the surrounding areas. Ozpin understood that alchemy was what they knew, and that is where their answers would lie.
"Take your time," Ozpin pushed a final door open.
Alphonse gasped at the enormity of the room. It was the same size as the library upstairs and filled with books. He desperately wanted to run in, but stopped himself. There was too much to take in. He still stood there, before finally walking over to a bookshelf and taking off a dusty tome. It was on human alchemy, the most forbidden of all taboos. In fact, as he kept looking, some of the titles were familiar and most of them where on human alchemy.
"Sir, why do you have all these books on human alchemy? It's taboo," he asked.
"Here the human body is more resilient than anywhere else within Truth's realm. It is possible for us not to worry about the toll associated with the finding of Truth," Ozpin said.
"Sir, I need to show you something," Al said.
"If it about your body, I already guessed that you are just an attached soul, am I correct?" Ozpin said.
"Yes, sir," Al said.
"Do you know what this is?" Ozpin asked, holding out a large red stone.
"That can't be, but it is. That's a Philosopher's Stone," Alphonse said.
"Correct, do you want to see if we can get your body back?" Ozpin asked.
"How did you get that?" Al asked.
"The Grimm here can substitute for humans in the case of stones. I will open the portal. You need to get your body back," Ozpin said.
"Are you sure about this?" Al asked.
"Yes, I am," Ozpin said.
Ozpin started drawing on the floor of the library. Al recognized the outline of the portal opening to Truth. Ozpin worked quickly on the transmutation circle. The circle was finished.
"There's no turning back from here," Ozpin said.
"Let's do this," Al said.
Ozpin opened the portal to Truth. Alphonse leapt into the portal. He saw his door and the ethereal figure that was Truth. There, too, was his regular body. Truth smiled.
"Your family has no idea how to leave me alone," Truth said.
"I want my body back and my brother's back to normal," Al said.
"What do you have to offer me?" Truth asked.
"This," Al replied, throwing him a Philosopher's Stone.
"One stone is all you have to offer?" Truth chuckled. "That will get your bodies back to normal and then some, but there will be changes that you would not be expecting."
Al gasped as he was roughly thrown into his body and back through his door. There was a sudden coolness to his body, as though he were lying on tile. He realized Truth did as he said. Ozpin looked at him in wonder.
"Are there Faunus where you are from?" he asked.
"No," Al said.
"You are in for a surprise then," Ozpin said.
"Why?" Al asked.
"You have a fox's tail."
Ed was in the other library when his metal arm suddenly fell off. Ed looked down at one of things he took the greatest pride in. His leg was suddenly painful. He was forced to sit down. Ed watched in amazement as his original arm and leg grew in place. He also felt a sharp pinch at his tailbone, but he was no concerned with it. Then, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a tiger's tail. He screamed.
Hawkeye was the first one to find Ed in the maze of that library. She was amazed at the sudden appearance of Ed's original leg and arm. The tail is what really threw her off. She hesitated.
"You are going to see Ozpin now," She ordered.
"Alright," he said.
So there you go Ed and Al achieves their goal, but they are different then they remember. PM me or give me a review on this. Next week I will be doing a service project for my church and I don't know if I will get a chapter up.
