A/N: Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood or Harry Potter

Hunny: Alright guys? I am baaaack~ Sorry for lack of update! I have only one excuse! I HAVE NO COMPUTER ACESS! Yeah fail right? I only got this chappy done cuz I was able to steal, I mean borrow, my dads old-as-all-hell computer. Also my family has been renovating and we've been ripping up old, dirty carpet and tile and it was REALLY dusty soo yeah. Well that's the truth…hehe Truth…

Edward: Hey! That guy's a creepy bastard! *shudders*

Hunny: Meh~ I find him very… interesting… Anyway a VERY thoughtful reader out there, a Mel7200 (I think, sorry if I screwed up your username

^-^') , asked me to mention what was different about my HP/FMA crossover. Well I'll tell you… It's not in the HP timeline (yet) but the Marauders (though it will eventually lead into that one… later…)! It was just a fit of inspiration that hit me one day to make it so yay originality~ And I know that the Marauders wasn't really given explicit detail on what happened but that's the fun part! Making up my own story line while sticking to a few certain cannon like what year the Marauders became animagi and when they figured out Lupin was his namesake (a werewolf), but other than that I get to have my way with them (…that sounds soo wrong…)!

Ed: Wait so if I'm going to be forced to go to this ridiculous magic school what house will I be in?

Hunny: Heeeee~ You'll just have to wait and see like the other readers~ *evil smile* Well now to end this RIDICULOUSLY long authors note. On with the story! *does heroic pose*


Chapter 1: A Deal


Opening his eyes to the familiar white void, Ed searched for the being he knew would be there. He was right of course. For standing there, almost blending into the background, but somehow not, in all his white glory, was Truth.

"Welcome back Al-che-mist~. What have you come to offer this time for your brother's body? Another arm or leg perhaps?" The being questioned with his large, toothy grin.

Ed was prepared this time. He had thought about what he could possibly give that would be enough for his baby brother ever since they swore to never use a philosophers stone. And he knew what it was.

"Naw, I've got something better for ya" he said, then tapped the imposing black gate behind him. "I'm gong to give you this. My own Gate of Truth!"

Truth's maniacal grin faltered slightly before widening even farther than before and clapped, the sound echoing ominously throughout the vast white realm. "Very good, very good! Its been a while since someone has been able to outsmart me! But you realize that if you give you that gate that you won't be able to use alchemy anymore right?"

Ed's own smirk graced his features as he crossed his arms over his chest. "I know, but I don't care, not as long as it gets me my brother back!"

"Well~ as much as I'd like to take your alchemy… I can't, or more accurately, I won't." That statement almost stopped the blonde's heart.

"WHAT!?" Ed yelled furiously, "What do you mean you won't I-"

"Ah-ah-ah Mr. Alchemist." Truth interjected before the young man could through a tantrum, "I said I wouldn't take your alchemy, it doesn't mean you can't have your brother back, I'll even through in the Colonel's eyesight and your teacher's organs if you do me one. Little. Favor." The smile grew with each word.

That shocked the red cloak wearing blonde, Truth would do all of that? But at what cost? Ed asked just that.

The face of the god got uncharacteristically grim. "There is another world that is tied to ours. One that has little alchemy, but thy have something to make up for it. Magic. Yes, it does exist, maybe not in this one, but in that one it runs abundantly. The rules of equivalent exchange aren't completely ignored though. Instead of taking materials from around them and turning it into something else, they take the energy from inside themselves, witches and wizards that is, and from around them to do amazing feats."

If Ed was stunned before this completely floored him. Magic, something that most alchemists agree doesn't exist, was real. But wait, Ed thought, what does this have to do with me?

"What about this? I'm sure you don't tell this to everyone that comes here asking for something back. What do I have to do with this magic world, moreover, what does the fate of my brother, Colonel bastard's eyes and my teacher's organs have do with this?

Truth's smile returned with vengeance even if it still held that same somberness from before, the severity of the situation must be great. "Why that's the favor~. I want you to go to that world and get rid of a certain stubborn pest and his followers. He shares similar ideas to that of the one you all called the 'Father' or 'the speck in the flask'."

Ed stared long and hard at the being trying to find any iota of joking from his countenance, he found none. Sighing he replied, "How am I supposed to do that? I mean I can't very well just leave and do that. That would take what like ten-fifteen years? I can't just leave my own world that long then just come back and say 'Hey I just came back from a hella long quest of danger and such', yeah that wouldn't go over well."

Truth's reply was unexpected, "No need to worry yourself so much. Everything will be taken care of~ Time flows differently on the other world thanks to a nifty object wizards had made, the time turner. Basically, you could spend, oh, fifty years on that world and it would only equate to about a month over on this side."

Ed was left slack jawed at that, who wouldn't be? But he recollected himself quickly and addressed the next problem, age. "Well even if that is true then I'd still be really old compared to everyone else. That wouldn't be very good now would it?"

The damn irritating smile was still in place, "You would come back here in the appropriate bodily age not to worry~. So will you accept or should I just send you back to-"

"No! I-I'll do it. You win." Ed hung his head, What have I just gotten myself into?

The doors opened behind him causing Ed to turn around thinking that they were for him. To his surprise and infinite delight a sickly, thin blonde came stumbling out of the black mass.

"Al!" Ed exclaimed as he rushed forward to catch his younger brother. Al sent him a weak smile and a raspy reply.

"Brother. I knew you'd come back."

"Of course I could!" the alchemist responded huffily.

The darkness in both gates (the other having opened when the brothers backs were turned) started getting restless and Ed knew it was time to let go. Sending a reassuring smile to the delicate boy in front of him he gently pushed Al into the gate leading home.

Al's eyebrows shot up to his overgrown hairline as the blackness grabbed him and Ed wasn't coming with.

"Brother! What about you!?" the youngest blonde cried.

The state alchemist sent a small smile to his brother. "I'll come back! I swear! It might just take some time so just keep moving forward and I'll catch up!"

Alphonse's eyes watered but he put on a brave face. "Just come home soon!" And with that he was gone.

Even as the black arms pulled him into the gate once again the smile was still present on the god's face as he gave the blonde one last piece of information.

"You're going to have a killer headache when you finally come to you know~"

What?


And then all went black.

Noise. There was some kind of noise around him.

Cold. It was really cold here…wherever here was.

Opening his eyes Ed knew three things. One, that everything was white and much too big. Two, his arm was gone again; he vaguely heard a voice in the back of his head saying that it was for the best if he was to get into a fight. And finally three, he knew exactly where he was, had he been in his own world that wouldn't be strange, but he wasn't in his own world. He was in Truth's freaky magic world and he was at that moment sporting a huge headache near the wizard town Hogsmead. What's with wizards and weird names?

Crunch, crunch, crunch. There was that noise again. Sounded like someone running through this snow. He couldn't really tell. He was going to pass out again.

"…Ther…see…umble…out of nowhe…cross." A woman was talking he could tell that much.

Now a mans, "Yes…I see…calm down Miner…lets bring….castle…"

And back to the ever annoying, welcoming blackness.


Hunny: There! Done! It's over twice as long as the last one! I hope you're happy~ *dodges rotten fruit* He-hey! I said I'm sorry! *runs from the now flaming rotten foods*

Roy: *looks after me and sweatdrops* Niiice… well if you're interested Hikari has a story with her two friends Nessa the Otaku and Kaita the Creeper called "Adorably Lethal" for the Sgt. Frog fandom so yeah…

Grarara: *does the ninja thing and pops outta no where* HI! I'm Hunny's Sgt. Frog version of herself! I am told to tell you that the updates for both that story and this one will be sporadic for the reason of lack of inspiration and the fact that in AL that there are three different people writing it so yeah… *goes back to SF universe*

Roy: Well that was…weird anyway please R&R.

~*EDIT*~

Ja Ne!
