Chapter 1 Mysterious Girl
Disclaimer: I don't own Full Metal Alchemist or Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood
In Resembool, it was a rural and peaceful place. Two of the most-known people in the village were the Rockbells and the Elric brothers. The Rockbells were automail engineers and doctors who help take care of the people injured and those who have missing limbs or arms. Their names were Winry Rockbell, a blonde teenager with mesmerizing blue eyes who loved automail and Pinako Rockbell, a short plump aged woman who take care of her granddaughter. . The Elric brothers were alchemists that searched for the Philosopher Stone, a stone that was created from human lives. Their names were Edward Elric, the older brother and Alphonse Elric, the younger brother.
Their father, Van Hohenheim, left them when they were very young and their mother, Trisha Elric passed away sadly when Ed was 10 and Al was 9. Because they were depressed and overwhelmed of their mother's death, they tried to transmute him her back to life with alchemy which was forbidden. But because the human transmutation ritual went wrong, failing to bring their mother back to life, Ed lost his right arm and left leg while Al loss his body, but was tied by a blood seal to a suit of armor that belonged to their father. To replace the lost limbs, he had automail surgery and walking back on his two feet in one year. He then became a State Alchemist, a.k.a. Dog of the Military at age 12. And now….
In Central….
"OMG! Is that the newest version of automail! Oh, how beautiful it looks. The texture and the designs! Wahl! This is paradise! Ed! Al! Get over here!" Winry yelled from a few stores away and then looked at the other new advanced tools. She was visiting them and last-minute shopping before they would all go visit Granny Pinako in Resembool.
"Brother, how much longer until the train arrives?" Al whimpered while carrying a ton of presents and panting. Al wasn't the only one who was tired. Ed was carrying twice as much as Al was carrying.
"Al, I'm not sure if we are even going to make it to the train on time if we keep going at this rate." He panted from carrying all the gifts and other advanced tools and machines for Winry and Pinako to use for automail.
"Al! Ed! Get over here! We need to pay for this!" she roared while fuming that they were so slow because of carrying the gifts and equipment. She was tapping their foot while waiting when a 14-year-old girl walked by her and gave money to cashier. The cashier then greeted her while wrapping up the items. Winry was then watching her take the items and then handed it to her.
"Um. I don't your friends will be able to pay for that since they're struggling with the luggage so here you go and no need to pay back." The person gently spoke. She was wearing a black T-shirt and pale short baggy pants with combat boots and a dark blue coat, but her face was hidden by her hood.
"Um. Is there a problem, miss?" she asked worried. Winry snapped out of it and then shook her head. Then she gave her a big smile.
"Thanks. I'm Winry. Um, I don't know your name." she asked, while wondering why the girl was hiding her face. The girl froze for a bit at the name Rockbell and then returned the smile.
"You're Winry Rockbell, Fullmetal's automail engineer. As in Edward Elric, correct? My name is -." A large crash interrupted her.
Winry turned around to the door and saw what has caused the loud crash. It was Ed and Al in a pile of the presents that were bought. She was horror-stricken.
"No! Ed! Al! The gifts and tools! All gone to waste!' she sobbed. While the boys…
"WINRY! IS AUTOMAIL ALL YOU CARE ABOUT? WHAT ABOUT-", Ed shouted, but the look-alike who stepped out of the shadows of the store, interrupted him before he could finish. Ed's eyes widened and Al gasped at the scene that happened before their eyes.
The girl took one step up and clapped. Then she put her hands on to the ground. She moved the presents out-of-the-way and into a wagon that she created. Then, she rose from the ground and smiled at Winry.
"There. That way they won't create a mess like this again. Good-bye, Winry." She quickly spoke while ignoring the stares the Elric Brothers gave to her.
"But, I don't know your name yet." Winry said. The girl shook her head and said her name wasn't really important. Then she turned and walked away till they couldn't see her anymore.
"Winry, who was that?" Ed complained. He was still looking in the direction the girl went. 'That voice…so familiar' He thought as he turned to listen to Winry's reply.
"I don't know. I just met her today and she paid for the gifts." Winry replied while turning around to face Ed. He looked like he wanted to know what was going on and chase her. Al shook his head and turned to talk to Ed, but he wasn't there. He looked up and saw him running toward the direction the girl went. Winry started panicking and started yelling.
"Ed/Big Brother! Where are you going?!" they shouted unison. They started to run after him, but he continued running.
"Don't follow me! I'll be back!" Ed yelled back without turning around. "I'll meet you at the train station!" Then he ran he till they couldn't see him anymore.
"Al, let's goes after him. I don't car-"she started to speak, but Al shaking his head before she could finish her sentence. Then he looked at Winry,
"Winry, I don't that's a good idea." He said. "Big Brother has something on his mind. Let's just meet him at the train station." Winry sighed and nodded slowly. Together, they walked to the train station while Al pushed the wagon and Winry walked along beside him and telling stories.
