One day she's making cookies with her mother. Another day she's at her mother's funeral. As weeks passed by, her father became different. He was once a man who always helped the towns people. However, after her mother's death, he was always buried inside his office. Although, little did she know that something a lot bigger was going to happen, forever changing her life. After a few weeks turned into months and soon enough years, the young girl became furious with her father. This was not only because she had to take over the responsibilities from both her parents, but mainly the fact that had barely seen her own father after her mother's death. So one night, after working hours to only get enough cash for a couple days. A flash of light reflects by her window. Before she could even understand what was going on, the echo of her father's screams reached into her room. In an instant, she rushed towards him. Fading one limb at a time, she runs into her father slowly attempting to perform... The ultimate taboo, human transmutation. The girl, filled with terror, tries to break the transmutation circle, attempting to rescue what remained of her father. Unfortunately, nothing stops it, leaving him with little remaining. Falling down to her knees in despair, her father makes his last attempt to being a good father. Crawling with one arm forward, he lures his daughter into the circle with him, letting him whisper his final words. "I'm sorry... I love you." Before she knew it, a flash appears again, taking her away into white room. What remained in the room was only three things. Herself. A huge black door. And a black shadow, resembling what seemed to be herself. This was the start to a new beginning. This is the start of the Musical Alchemist.

You fall to the ground, unconscious. Ed's grin turns down and his eyes widen in horror. A bright yellow light fills the room. He traces the thick black vine that reached out from the machine into your heart. Ed's knees gives up from under him. Al rushes in. "Brother, what's-" Ed turns to Al, tears and desperation filling his eyes. "She's gone, Al. She's gone. And it's all my fault!" Al's eyes widen as he stares at the figure behind his brother. Your body was vaporizing slowly. Al points towards you, shaking. The yellow light swallows your body, along with the vine and Ed's machine. Ed turns and hangs his head as everything falls silent. Al stands there wordlessly. Ed blinks away his tears, determination set in his eyes. "She's gone, Al, but I won't allow that. It's not a fair equivalent exchange." Ed looks up at Al. "We're going to bring her back." ~ Something weird is up. Your powerful alchemy powers were admired all through the land, and yet no one seems to know what alchemy is. That is, until you meet Edward Elric and his brother, Alphonse Elric. The two are fascinated yet understanding of your powers, and Ed is able to teach you some alchemy, though he won't tell you how he knows. Through many hardships with the Elric brothers, you begin to grow close to them, and even start to fall for Al, but he doesn't feel the same. Ed, though, falls for you, and you couldn't help but feel bad. You don't realize how you feel about him. That is, until Ed sacrifices the most important thing to him to be able to keep you by his side. ************ This story is based on the original FMA series after the Conqueror of Shamballa movie. If you want to read one for FMA:B, I'll have one up soon, as I'm not quite done with the series yet. But for now, enjoy!

There is no more romance between Ed and the reader. Slowly going through the chapters and editing them, they're marked with <edited> so if you're reading this for the first time then I recommend not reading a chapter until it's edited because the plot is changing drastically and it probably wont make any sense if you read it unedited.
