A/N: After watching FMAB, I felt I needed to give this anime a little something. I know my main storylines are based only on InuYasha. Still there was a voice inside my head that wanted to tell my version of Edwards return and marriage to Winry. I hope I can keep this true to all you FMAB fans. Thanks and enjoy. I own nothing all characters belong to the great Hiromu Arakawa.

As he set in the train seat traveling back to Resembool, Edward couldn't help but feel more then ready to return to the life he left behind. After more then a year away traveling to different counties to the west, his mind started to think about Winry more each day. Part of him couldn't help think he was like my father, leaving his loved one all alone worrying about him. Though his father was actually preparing for something, where as he was just exploring. So after finding little knowledge in the west he was now heading home, to start his life with her. Slipping his hand into his pocket, he then pulled out something silver. Looking down at the locket in his hand, a smile come to him. He was so nervous the day he proposed to her, the only thing that came to him was alchemy. He started chuckling as the memory of that day flashed back to him.

*Flashback*

A beep blush covered Ed's face as he swallowed hard before letting his words go. "Equivalent exchange…I'll give half of my life to you, if you give half of yours to me."

Of course Winry was surprised and a bit disappointed in him. "Come on Ed, must you treat everything like alchemy? The whole equivalent exchange is just nonsense."

Ed still red in the face from his question, was getting a little upset by her words. "What'd you say?!" He questioned, not sure how to really take in her response.

"Aaaaaah, it's nonsense. How about I just give you my whole life?" There was a moment of silence between them until, Winry realized what she just said. "Uh, maybe not all of it…90..maybe 80 percent, 70..that's not enough..but 85 yeah, 85 that's a good number."

It was at that moment it hit him and Ed couldn't help but laugh at her words. He was almost in tears from how hard he was laughing at this special woman in front of him. Of course Winry was getting angry at him. "What?!" She asked, still he kept laughing even harder. "W-What! Shut up!"

Still Ed continued to laugh, but not for the reason she thought he was. "I'm sorry really." He managed to say, while holding his sides laughing.

"Edward?" She said, still a little red in her face.

Taking a deep breath to control his laughter Ed managed to get out his true feelings. "You are so incredible, you knocked equivant exchange flat on its butt in just a few words."

"And what does that mean, are you making fun of me?" She asked confused.

"Not at all." He told her, as he pulled her close. "Thanks for cheering me up, I'll miss you. Good bye, for now." He told her, as he hugged her tight.

Finally realizing the truth behind the laughter, Winry returned his embrace and told him. "Come home soon."

*End Flashback*

"I'm not sure what surprised me more her answer or how she knocked the whole equivalent exchange on it's butt. Either way I'm so glad to be returning to her. I just hope I don't get a wrench in the face for not calling before coming home." Ed said to himself, before the whistle blew announce its arrival to the station. There were so many memories going through his head as the train stopped allowing the people off. "You'd think my ass would have splinters in it from all these damn train rides I've been on these past years. First as a dog of the military, and then a traveler exploring the west." He gave a long stretch along with a yawn! It felt good to be back in Resembool. Looking around the train station he noticed how quiet it really was here. "It's going to seem different not traveling like this all the time, but I think it's time I slow down." He pulled the silver locket from his pocket once more and opened it. Inside was a date scratched into the one side, much like his old state alchemist watch also had a date. "Well Winry I hope this date works for you, after all I know I can't wait to finally settle down and just be with you forever."

His walk to the Automail shop and Winry's home gave him time to think of old days as well and of his brother Alphonse. While Ed traveled to the west, Al went east. 'I wonder if Al settled down yet? After all he was always more mature then me, and May Chang is in the east. Who knows they might have hooked up, she seemed interested in him before she headed home after the big battle.' He grinned thinking of his younger brother marrying into royalty, after all Al did deserve a happy life now. Not paying attention to the road ahead, Ed's foot found an uneven spot in the road causing him to fall. There was a pop and then the sound of a screw hitting the ground a few inches away. "Damn, just my luck. I knew I should've tightened that before I left, Winry's going clobber me for sure now." After getting himself back on his feet Ed found it hard to work his leg properly, so for the rest of the way he basically limpped the rest of the way.

Most of the day had passed till Ed made to the Automail shop, the sun already starting to set. It seemed so quiet and almost heavenly here, that is if one didn't dwell on the horrible past that hunted this area. Even as an adult, Ed still couldn't fully forget his life after his mother's death. And it wasn't just because he still walked on a mechanical leg. What Ed and Al went through in their young adult years will more then likely follow them till their deaths. A true caring heart will always remember the bad times, and the mind will always make you think of ways you could've changed those times. Some memories of their past good and some so horrible you want to forget and never see again. Still there was one thing here that was extra special. "Hey Winry, I'm home!"
