Boredom is such an interesting thing…as I'm sure you've all had experience with.

DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING! If I did, Envy would still be alive and Umbridge would've had hell during Harry's fifth year.

"Thanks for looking after Edward for us," Trisha Elric said to her best friend. Standing next to her was Hohenheim, who smiled and nodded.

Lily Potter smiled back, holding a baby Edward in her arms. "It's no problem. I'm sure Harry will be happy to have someone to play with." She laughed as Edward squirmed in her grasp. She looked at Hohenheim and they traded a glance, like they were saying something to each other.

Trisha tickled Edward and told him, "You be good now, alright?"

Edward laughed, hugging her hand. Trisha chuckled, looking up at Lily. "You sure he'll be safe with You-Know-Who out there?"

Lily nodded. "We've still got the Fidelius charm on the house. You-Know-Who won't be able to find the house unless our Secret-Keeper tells him. And we've got trust in him."

Trisha smiled, kissing Edward on the head. Hohenheim stated, "Even if something does happen, that bear will be able to catch everything. Make sure that it's pointed towards Harry and Edward in case we need evidence of something happening."

"Of course," Lily replied.

Edward's parents turned and left, as Lily turned back inside and placed Edward down next to a young Harry Potter. The two stared at each other before Edward tackled Harry. James walked in, chuckling. "They really hit it off," he said, looking at the two. "Edward's grown."

"Yes, he has," Lily said. She looked at both of them fondly.

"You're not remembering about when you met Trisha, are you?" James asked.

Lily replied, "Why not? We're such good friends."

"Yea, but it took a while," James stated. "For the first few years at Hogwarts, you two hated each other's guts."

Lily smiled. "Yea, but we did get past that. It's funny, how she was in Hufflepuff. I remember always thinking that with her attitude, she should've been in Slytherin."

James shook his head. "She was too sweet for that, maybe not back then, but we've always got to trust the Sorting Hat when it comes to these matters."

Harry had pinned Edward to the ground by this point, but Edward managed to push Harry off. Lily chuckled, saying, "I'd better put these two in bed before they hurt themselves." As if in response, Edward yawned, but tried to grab hold of Harry. Lily scooped both of them into her arms and went to Harry's room.

James shook his head, a smile on his face. He was about to go back into the kitchen when there was a bang. James spun around in time to watch the door explode into tiny fragments. Through the door walked Voldemort.

"Avada Kedavra!" Voldemort shouted, killing James Potter.

Upstairs, Lily heard the commotion and spun around. She watched as Voldemort entered the room. "Move out of the way and I won't kill you," Voldemort told her.

"Never," Lily replied. She screamed as she, too, was killed.

Voldemort approached the two babies. He looked between the too, before pointing his wand at Harry. "Avada Kedavra," Voldemort breathed, but found that the spell ricocheted as he was killed from his own spell. The teddy bear sitting on the dresser catching everything that happened through the camera that Hohenheim had placed in it.

Hagrid found the two later. He looked down, before picking both of them up. Edward squirmed from pain at the lightning-bolt scar on his forehead, but Harry was sleeping peacefully, without a scratch on him. Hagrid heard a crashing downstairs and turned in time to see Hohenheim and Trisha enter the room.

"Hagrid. Hagrid, what happened? We saw James downstairs but-" Trisha asked, cutting off her own sentence when she saw the body of her friend lying on the ground. She looked away from Lily; not wanting to see what became of her friend, but knew all too well about what happened. Tears rolled down her cheeks and she gripped Edward in her grasp, like she never wanted to let go. She started comforting Edward, but the wetness of her face didn't help convince him.

"I'm sorry about what happened," Hagrid apologized.

"What for?" Hohenheim asked, sliding the teddy bear into his jacket. "It's not your fault that this happened. The most you can do is make sure Harry is sent somewhere safe." He looked at the last Potter, saying, "Grave things are going to be coming, and the wizarding world is going to need this boy."

"What about Edward?" Hagrid asked, looking at the young Elric with concern.

Trisha replied, "We're going back to Amestris. Maybe there Edward can at least live a somewhat normal life with his younger sibling."

"Why don' yeh take Harry with yeh? He'll be safe with yeh," Hagrid asked them.

Trisha shook her head. "Harry must grow up here, in the world his parents knew, just like Edward must grow up in the world that we know." She smiled, saying, "I hope that someday, Harry and Edward can be the greatest of friends, just like Lily and I were."

Trisha walked over to Hohenheim, looking at Hagrid. "Please, find someplace safe for Harry." They disappeared with a pop.

"Don' worry, I will," Hagrid promised. He got on the motorcycle and started making his way to Number 4 Privet Drive, where Harry would live with his relatives until the time came for everything to be revealed.

/AN

Yes, if it was essential to the plot I would've had Trisha take Harry. I didn't because it's the opposite of that. Harry needs to live his life, without the scar to make this work.

And for clarification, the teddy bear Hohenheim was talking about at the start was the one he picked up when they arrived later.
