Mute by sneakyfox1254

(Y/N) escaped the homunculi, barely holding on to her shredded life, 8 years ago. She was 7. At 11 years old, she surpassed Edward Elric in becoming the youngest State Alchemist in Amestris and the only female Alchemist currently enrolled in the Military. Now 13 years old, she is traveling with the Elric brothers, helping them search for the object they desire most to get their bodies back; the Philosopher's Stone. But over the years that you have known the two boys, Alphonse Elric has grown feelings for you. How will the story end? This may and probably will stray from both anime series. This will be based mostly off of Brotherhood. Edit- 3/14/2016: HOLY SHIT THIS HAS OVER 350 VIEWS?! AHHHHHH!!!! THANK YOU GUYS SO MUCH :3
