Chapter 1-The Elder's Feeling.

Munich, November 1929…

After a long trip from the cemetery, that was located from the village that seemed far away from the city. Finally, they made their way into the city of Munich where the truck began entering into the city with a lot of tall buildings along the street. Alphonse(Al) was very amazed with the scenery in the real world(Earth). He looked around himself and all he could express is amazement.

"Wow, Nii-san, that is so great!"

Edward(Ed) grinned broadly as he replied back, "Welcome to Munich, Al. This is the place where Al and I were working on rocket research."

"Nii-san mean, Alfons?"Al tried to make it straight to that person, which Ed nodded with the name, "Alfons Heidrich, a rocket scientist. Just same like me."

"I didn't expect that his face was quite similar with me. And a bit…taller."The young brother chuckled, feeling ticklish in his heart.

Ed said, "Yeah, he got a face quite similar as you. But, he's a different person and had a different personality as you."

Al noticed that his brother was looking very sad, assuming that he still very sad with Alfons' death. He tried to comfort him, "Don't worry, Nii-san. I'm sure that we can continue his legacy so nii-san can always remember him with his accreditation and acknowledgement."

Ed looked at Al, he added, "But, I also want to do it together with you, Al. We continue the legacy of Alchemy. We are always Alchemists and forever will be."

For the first time in the life, they both were began blushing. Each of them noticed the blushes respectively and quickly they turned away, trying to make the blushes gone away. But what was funny in that moment, they felt very hot especially on their faces.

'Al, I'm sorry but…it is true.'Thought Ed in his mind.

'Nii-san, that is so embarrassing…'Another thought from Al, he felt very shy with his brother.

Heidrich's House…

The truck finally stopped at the front of the tall building that used to be an apartment. It was also a home where Ed and Alfons stayed together. Ed and Al got off from the truck as they stood in front of the building. The truck started to move and leaving them.

Ed and Al were standing in front of the apartment, as the big brother introduced to his younger brother, "Al, this is an apartment, where Alfons and I were used to live here. We both lived here before you got here."

He looked down sadly, "Although, this place has give so much memories to me. It is very different now without him."

"Nii-san.." Al was very worried with his brother.

Ed made a slight smile as he continued, "Though he's a little bit stubborn, but he's very intelligent."

Suddenly, without a word or warning, Al hugged him tightly. Ed was stunned a little, wondering why his younger brother did such a sudden thing. Al cried a bit upon Ed's shoulder as he said, "Nii-san, you're really worried me too much. Nii-san don't have to worry because I'm here to be with you. Even though he's gone, but I'm still here to help you and to grow together with you."

Ed was felt astonished with Al's confession.

The younger brother said again, "You don't have to be sad with his death anymore. Because, I'm willingly to offer myself to replace Alfons' place. I promise we will do this together and continue his legacy together."

It gave Ed more amazed with the confession. With a happy feeling that born inside his heart, Ed returned the hug more tighter that Al gave. He began smiling widely as he looked on Al's face and wiped off his tears that still had on his eyes.

"Thank you very much, Al. You made me feel very happy with you. I'm glad you're here with me. If you're still in the other world, I would probably always alone here in this huge world." Thanked Ed with grateful.

Al replied happily, "Nii-san have done so much to protect me. Now, I'm Alphonse Elric, the powerful alchemist will try to protect my nii-san as best as I can."

"Equivalent exchange?" Ed chuckled lightly.

Al also chuckled lightly, wanted his brother to guess by himself, "Nii-san think?"

"I can consider it as yes."Ed grinned widely. Then, they both laughed.

"Come on, Al. Let's go inside, the sun is about to set, the night is about to appear soon."

Al nodded, simply answered, "Okay…"

That Night, At The Balcony.

The night has appeared and the time showed about 9:00 p.m. The people at that time were busy hanging around the city, going for a night date, having a dinner, walking around the city and so on. But, the Elric Brothers were decided to have rest at home since they were very tired from the event last night.

Al was standing on the balcony, leaning his arm on the barrier. He was taking the fresh air at the outside as he watching the beautiful scenery on the Munich city. He was very amazed with the surrounding from the real world(Earth).

"Wow, it is so beautiful." Al was astonished.

He mumbled, "This is what the real world be. Much more beautiful."

Then, Ed met him at the balcony, he was from the kitchen just now, making dinner for them both probably. Ed joined him, standing beside him. He began the conversation.

"Al, feeling amazed with the scenery?"

Al nodded as he turned his look, facing his brother, "It's been a long time we're not met each other."

Ed looked down sadly. He replied, "I'm sorry for leaving you. When I was trying to transmute you to regain your body back…like equivalent exchange, when you returned to normal, having your body back, as an exchange, I will be gone. I don't want you to die, not at a young age like now. You still need to learn a lot same as me."

He looked up to the sky, the moon was shining brightly, "I didn't know that you have lost your memory before this. That's why you didn't remember anyone. But now, you have regained your memory and mostly, you have got back your own body. It is the most happiest thing that I really want to hear. And now, the gate also have been destroyed and there's no way we can return back to our world. Earth, is our new home."

Al lifted his hand and patted his brother, "I want to live here with you and feel the same way as you, nii-san."

Ed smiled widely at his younger brother's decision. Finally, he confessed, touching his cheeks, "Al, I want to say this to you. But before that…"

"Before what, nii-san?"

Finally, Ed kissed him for the first time that never he done it before in his life. That was the first kiss to his younger brother..or actually, it was his biggest crush. He loved his own younger brother more than just a brother. Al, was very shocked with the sudden moment. But eventually, Al returned back with the same kiss.

"I love you, Alphonse Elric. More than just a brother. I love you more than that." Ed confessed.

Al also made a confession to him, "I also actually love you more that a brother, nii-san. That's why I wanted to be with you and to grow together with you."

The big brother was happy with the confession that he made, same with himself. He kissed his lips again and he said softly, "Finally, you got your own body back. I was very amazed that you're really cute now. You're really grown up now. You're now have become the powerful alchemist. I am really proud of you."

Al blushed faintly. He smiled, feeling happy with the compliment from his own brother and his new love. He said, "But you're the most powerful to me."

Then, they both were hugging each other….

"Come on, Al. Let's have a dinner. I have made some meals for us."

"Okay, nii-san!"

They both returned back inside the apartment and walked to the dining room where the dinner meals waiting for them.

"Al, Earth will become our new home to live together…forever."
