It started when I was young. I was a promising you Alchemist; one of the youngest in fact. But you were still younger than me but that's beside the point. I was an idealistic young man who planned to join the military in hopes of creating a strong motorcade for them. Only once I was in the military I became a little different. And that is where I start my story"

Ulrich stood out the front of Central command with a bunch of metal and other pieces "How am I going to this?" he asked forming a transmutation circle "So you're the Dragoon Alchemist" a voice said "And you must be Captain Mustang" Ulrich said shaking the captain's hand. "So you think you can do this?" Mustang asked "Here we go" Ulrich said as the circle lit up, enshrouding the pieces in electricity. Once the light died down standing where the pieces were was now a vehicle "There" Ulrich said brushing the dirt from his coat off. "Interesting, you can transmute materials into vehicles for the military huh?" Mustang asked "Yeah I do, and sometimes there better than the mass produced ones" Ulrich said patting the vehicle "Interesting, when will it be tested?" Mustang asked. "This afternoon" Ulrich said "I'll see you there" Mustang said leaving.

That afternoon Mustang and several other soldiers stood in the arena with the vehicle Ulrich transmuted in the centre "These brave soldiers and I will be inside this vehicle, while these two dozen soldiers shoot at it with these guns" Ulrich said as those near the vehicle entered it "Wait, what!?" Mustang exclaimed as he was pushed inside by Ulrich before he closed the doors. "Are you crazy?" Mustang asked as Ulrich switched the dome on top from red to green. "They'll be beginning in five seconds" Ulrich smiled sitting down and pulling out a book. "Are we sure about this guy?" a soldier said sitting next to Mustang "I don't know Hughes" Mustang said before noticing something "Where's the gunfire?" Mustang asked. "You'll see" Ulrich said as he switched the dome to red "They've stop" Ulrich said exiting the vehicle "Alright let's go Hughes" Mustang said as he and Hughes left it.

"No way" Mustang said seeing all the bullets on the ground "But we didn't hear a thing" Hughes said astonished "He must of bullet and sound proof it to make sure the soldiers stay calm and relax" Mustang said "It's a evacuation vehicle, so you are right" Ulrich said smiling "Interesting" a voice said making the three turn "Ah Fuhrer Bradley" Ulrich said saluting the leader of their country "I see much potential in your future Ulrich" Bradley said leaving with his aide "Yes sir, thank you sir" Ulrich said smiling.

A couple of years later the War of Ishval had began and it was here that Ulrich's nature was turning into something dark, he was building incredible war machines and weapons at a incredible rate "Finally those Ishvalians will be no more" Ulrich said as he transmuted a triple barrelled cannon for the gunners "There, I suggest that building" a gunner said as Ulrich moved the cannon into position "FIRE!" a voice shouted out as a wave of canon fire destroyed the building they were targeting. "Finally we're near the end of the war" Ulrich cackled before seeing a flash of flames "Flame alchemy" Ulrich said fascinated "I could incorporate that into my vehicles which would increase their power tenfold" Ulrich smirked "And there is only one place to find it" Ulrich said

"Roy, how are handling this thing?" Ulrich asked entering the mess tent "Fine, though I wish it was over" Mustang said "That's good, I just wanted to ask if I could see you alchemy circle" Ulrich said smoothly "Forget it" Mustang said "What I was think I could use it to fuel my vehicles" Ulrich said "Forget, if you start using it for a source of fuel, you'll sooner use it for a weapon" Mustang said "I see, you know I bet Warrant Officer Hawkeye could share the secret with me" Ulrich said soon feeling a knife on his neck "I suggest you leave" Hughes said "Fine I'll leave but I will get that secret" Ulrich said. Mustang and Hughes shared a look 'He won't' the look said.

"So the war's over now and I think my quest for the alchemic power of flame will be mine, and for that I need old man Hawkeye's research" Ulrich said as he neared an old shack "Damn" he growled upon seeing its condition "So the old codger up and died did he?" Ulrich asked becoming angry "Never mind I bet that pretty little chick of his Riza would know where I could find her father's work" Ulrich said "And once I have the power of flame; I shall harness the power of the philosopher" Ulrich said leaving the area "But first I need to find that and him" Ulrich said

"Ah finally, I've found you Van Hohenheim" Ulrich said seeing the blonde gentleman "DO I know you?" Hohenheim asked "Just a fellow alchemist who had heard of your ability with all alchemy, I was wondering if I could persuade you to transmute a sleeping elixir for me. I have been having bad dreams ever since the end of Ishval" Ulrich said deceiving the man before him "Yes I think I can, hold on I'll be back in a while" he said. An hour later Hohenhiem had returned with the potion Ulrich requested and in return received 340 cenz "Thank you my good sir" Ulrich said walking off "I have a bad feeling about him" Hohenheim said walking off.

A week later Ulrich was inside the cafeteria of Central command enjoying his nightly coffee waiting for Riza Hawkeye. Which is when he would spike her drink with the elixir and watch her sleep as he took her to a medical clinic he set up "Why gopod evening miss Hawkeye" Ulrich said "Oh hello Ulrich. I haven't seen you in a while" Riza said getting in line for a cup of tea "Here, allow me I have been told I made a killer cup of tea" Ulrich said preparing a cup of tea with the elixir he secured in it "Camomile and rose tea a favourite blend of mine which I got the recipe for from my mother" Ulrich said handing the tea to Riza "Thank you" Riza said taking a sip before feeling sleepy "It really works" Riza said passing out, collapsing into Ulrich's arms.

Riza woke up in an unknown place "Where am I?" she asked before feeling the cold "And where are my clothes?" she shrieked "Gone, my dear and soon I will have those secrets that your father took to his grave" Ulrich said examining Riza's back "quite beautiful" Ulrich said running the back of his fingers down Riza's back making her shiver from fear from Ulrich's touch "You're quite lovely maybe I'll have another use for you" Ulrich said before encountering a patch of scarring "Hm, that will be a problem" he said suddenly hearing a noise "Who is that?" Ulrich asked before he felt something slice into his face "Hughes!" he said seeing his attacker "Drake!" Hughes said preparing his second blade "Think again if you're planning to capture me" Ulrich said creating a smoke cloud "Hughes!" "Hawkeye!" the two officer said "Shit he escape" Hughes said looking amongst the smoke before he helped Hawkeye down and covering her "Come on, let's go" Hughes said

"Damn that Hughes" Ulrich said as he now had a huge gash going from the ear side of the right eyebrow to the ear side of the left eye "I'll will return" Ulrich said becoming strangely sane and swept his hair back "Now for the power of the Philosopher" he said leaving the scene.

Years later, Ulrich was about to conduct his final experiment with creating the Philosopher's Stone. He had captured thousands of humans from the outlying villages "Finally the array is ready" Ulrich said hearing the door open "Visitors I wonder who it could be" Ulrich said seeing the red coat "A child, then the armour must be his guardian "These are the missing people" one of them said, who sounded like a child "And not just them Al look" the other one said in a older voice "Don't tell me" the older voice said afraid of what he saw "A philosopher's Stone!" the younger one said shocked "And not just one by the look of things" the older one said "Multiple stones?" the younger one said asked.

"I better work fast" Ulrich said activating the array filling the building with crimson light "You're too late alchemist" Ulrich chuckled as the pair raced towards him "What do we do brother?" the younger one asked "Who cares create the Heart of Amestris; the largest Philosopher's Stone ever made!" Ulrich said "I got him Al" The older voice said charging forward revealing him to be the child. "Too late" Ulrich said as the heart unleash a massive energy wave.

"Where am I?" Ulrich asked "My base" a sultry voice said "And you are?" Ulrich asked standing up "Gyokuro Shuzen" Gyokuro said "And welcome to Chimera" she said smiling as she helped him up. "Thank you" Ulrich said bowing "Milady"
