Chapter 3: Auto mail

The Sun was shining outside of Resembool, it was a quiet little town, nothing much to do there besides watching the Sunset. People were bustling about buying items, such as food and stuff for their homes.

Two teenage boys were walking down the streets of Resembool. Their names are Edward and Alphonse Elric. “I can’t wait to get back to Central, can you Al?” Ed stated. Ed has long blonde hair held up in a braid, black pants, black shoes, black t-shirt, and a red coat to go over the shirt.

“Yeah, I guess so brother.” Al said no really paying attention to what Ed was saying. Al had a suit of armor as a body with only a soul. You see the Ed and Al tried to bring their Mom back to life by the use of human transmutation. In exchange for bringing their Mom back was their blood. But what they didn’t know was that they’d have to give a whole lot more then a drop of blood. Al’s body was taken; Ed’s left leg was taken. In exchange for getting Al’s soul back Ed had to give up his right arm. Now here they are searching for the Philosophers Stone, a magic amplifier that can boost ones alchemic power.

(With Christina)

“Ugh. Where am I?” the now limbless Christina mumbled. Christina tried to get up, but realized she couldn’t. She looked down at her body and a searing pain comes ripping right through her. “AAAAAAAAAHHHH!!” She screamed she was in so much pain, that she even lost all consciousness.

(With Ed&Al)

Ed was busy rambling on about how he was going to kick Mustangs pompous a** when he came back to Central. “I’m going to make him sorry” Ed wasn’t looking where he was going during his rambling, and bumped into Al. “Al? What’s wrong? Why’d you stop?” Ed asked his younger brother. Al stood completely still not talking to Ed.

“E-Ed. L-look over t-there” Al said shakily pointing at a body. The body seemed to be limbless. Al then ran over to the body.

“AL, wait up” Ed called out to his brother. When Ed got to where Al was he saw what Al was looking at. A body. It was a girl; she had long black hair, a black school uniform on and horns. But what shocked him the most weren’t the horns it was the fact that she was limbless. “Al? Could she have?”

“I don’t know brother, I don’t know.”

“We’ve got to get her to Aunt Pinako’s quick. Before she dies.” Ed picked Christina up and ran all the way too Pinako’s home.

(With Pinako&Winry Rockbelle)

An old lady with gray hair pulled back into a bun/ponytail (A/N: I’m not sure) was pacing round the front door waiting for Ed and Al to bring home the groceries from the local stand. “What is taking those boys too long” She said, she was patient at times like these, but when it took the boys seven hours too bring home the food she started too wonder how long until her patience will run out. Just then a blonde haired, blue-eyed girl came walking towards Pinako.

“Relax Grandma, I’m sure Ed&Al are just fine”

“I hope your right Winry, I hope your right.”

(With Ed&Al)

“What are we going to do brother?” Alphonse asked his elder brother. He could tell that Ed was worried about this girl, they found lying in the snow. They didn’t know anything about her, where she came from, who she is. More importantly what she is. “She’s not human, Could she be a homunculi?”

“Nonsense Al, how could she be. There’s not a mark of a homunculi on her anywhere.” Ed replied still carrying the severely injured Christina in his arms. “Hey I see Aunt Pinako’s house. Come on!” Ed quickly rushed in the door not bothering to knock.

Pinako saw Ed holding a girl in his arms. “What in the world?” Pinako began to ask confused. Ed placed Christina on the auto mail operating table. Pinako hurried in front of him, and Asked, “Edward Elric what are you doing”

Ed saw the stern look in Pinako’s face and thought ‘I can’t explain to her what happened because I don’t even know myself’ “I can’t explain right now.”

“Why not?”

“Just Can’t”

“Was it the forbidden art of Alchemy”

“I don’t know, but what I do know is that this girl is in a lot of pain and her arms and legs are missing. Looks like a knife” Just then Winry came running in the room.

“What happened to her?” She asked as she just stared at the girl. But what she was really staring at was not the girl but the horns. She looked away as if repulsed by the site. “Well we better start making her better then shall we”

“Yes.” Ed, Al, and Pinako said. And together they worked to build Christina some auto mail that matched her skin tone.
