*3 Years Ago*

You stare aimlessly out of the train window. You were on your way to Central to see your uncle, Roy Mustang. (Yeah he's your uncle in this storyX'D) The train stopped in a small town, Risembol. Only 2 passengers got on, that being a short guy with long blonde hair in a braid and a suit of amour... Wait... a suit of amour???! You glance at them, curiosity over came you.

"It isn't nice to stare, ya know..." The short one mumbled crossing his arms.

"S-sorry. I didn't mean too..." You mumbled. Being the snoopy person you are, you asked a question that as soon as it left your mouth, you instantly regretted it. "Why are you in a suit of amour?"

"Oh... I-I um..." The amour spoke. You noticed he had a voice of a young teen... (Btw you are both 13)

"No, never mind. I'm sorry, that was very rude of me. You don't have to answer that..." You quickly said with a apologetic smile.

"It's fine..." He said. The short one kind of gave you a dirty look but you shrugged it off. You sat back down in your original seat by yourself. "Y-You can sit by us if you want..." You hear him speak. A small smile formed on your lips. You glanced at the two, the short one looked pissed but you sat by them anyway. You sat next to the boy in the amour despite there being hardly any room but the shorty scared you, even though you were much taller than him.

"So what are your names?" You asked.

"I'm Edward Elric, the Fullmetal Alchemist." The short one said like he was the best person ever.

"Never heard of you..." You mumbled. Ed rolled his eyes.

"Okay whatever..." He says. You glance at the boy in the armor. Perhaps they were brothers? Maybe he was the oldest? You thought.

"I'm Alphonse Elric but you can call me Al... I'm his younger brother." Now named Al stated. You had a surprised look on your face.

"Oh, I thought that you were the older brother..." you slightly chuckled. Ed glared at you.

"What is that suppose to mean...?" He asked crossing his arms.

"Nothing..." You quickly say, you didn't want to offend a State Alchemist. "Well I guess I should introduce myself now... I'm (Y/N) (L/N) the Fire Alchemist" (yeah you're an Alchemist^_^ Similar Alchemy to Roy!)

"You're a State Alchemist too?" Al asked. You nodded in response.

"Are you related to Colonel Bastard?" Edward asked. You tilted your head.

"He means Roy Mustang..." Al corrected.

"Oh yes I am. He's my uncle. Is that a bad thing...?" You asked concerned.

"Better not be a bastard like Colonel Bastard." Ed mumbled. You scoffed.

"Brother! Don't be rude!" Al said sternly. You smiled, he was so much sweeter than Ed you thought. The train must of went over some bump of some kind cause it caused you to fly up on your seat. The bump also made Al's helmet to fall off. You hesitantly pick it up, when you glance back up at him you noticed he had no head...

"Al...?" You murmured. You were now fully curious on what's going on. Al takes the helmet from you and sighs.

"I guess I should be truthful to you (Y/N)..." He trails off. Al and Ed both explained what happened to them... They lost their mother at a young age... So they decided to bring her back using human transmutation... They both lost something. Edward his left arm, Alphonse lost his whole body... Ed sacrifice his right arm to bond Al's soul into a suit of armor... Al pointed to some type of marking that was inside of the armor. "This blood seal keeps my soul bound to this armor..." He explains placing his helmet back on. You were speechless for a couple moments.
