Summary: Edward Elric from various points of view.

Chapter 15: Epilouge

He decided to use the Great Hall as the location for calling on The Gate. The space had to be large enough to draw a transmutation circle with a three-meter long radius and the only other available area was the Quidditch field- which was immediately ruled out due to its lack of cover, allowing any and all to sneak a peek. Ed made sure to apologize to Albus beforehand in case he accidentally caused irreversible damage to the Great Hall.

When he first came to this place, he had a mindset that he would not leave until he'd found a path. When he first came to this place, he was amazed that their form of magic dealt more with actual magic rather than science. When he first came to this place, he was annoyed by the false information on alchemy printed by uninformed imbeciles- until he realized that whatever alchemists this world had played a different role, ones that did not include being a dog of the military, and had different rules, ones not involving the law of equivalent trade, the principle he had lived his life by.

Edward Elric was not certain of the outcome. He did not know if doing this would result in him losing another body part or if he would lose his life. The 'good' and 'bad' did not outweigh each other; that was his equivalent trade.

But even as he was drawing the circle, he thought of his one true purpose and why he had to do this. "Al.. Winry.. Sensei.. Colonel," he added after a grudging pause, "I want to go back to you. I want all of us to be together, just as we planned all along."

And so, with all his hope riding on that one clap, Ed activated the circle.

His last thoughts were those of his little brother.

And that is the end of Mr. Elric, my first FMA crossover! This version was edited on October 23, 2005 and as you may have noticed, all the author's notes have been deleted to reduce clutter.

For anyone who is new to Mr. Elric, know that there is a set of side stories occuring within the Mr Elric storyline and a sequel titled Endless Moment for anyone who's interested. The side stories are found at my Livejournal linked from my profile and Endless Moment is archived here at fanfiction dot net.

I hope you enjoyed reading Mr Elric (with all its ridiculously short chapters) and I hope you enjoy reading Endless Moment even more seeing as it's a 'real' story and not just a collection of thoughts. Thank you!
