Chapter One – Before Their Eyes

"Lalala… (sigh)" a young girl danced around on her tip toes. She stood in front of Central HQ. Her hair was relatively long with big bangs and a strand that stands up like Edward Elric. Her hair then split into two "dog ears" and long thin braids dropped to her knees. The color was like a mix of brick red and a medium brown. Her summer dress was white and black. The length was sort of un-modest for her age. Thin black spaghetti straps held the dress in place on her shoulders. Bows and chains decorated the front and back. Knee high black boots…long black arm warmers which came up to her shoulder were also apart of her attire. She wore a choker necklace with the exact symbol Edward Elric had on his red coat.

"I wonder if Little Big Brother is here" her faced took a worried expression. Her back and shoulder blades had a tattoo of angel wings which were a dark grey color. She walked into the entrance of the HQ.

"Hello, may I help you miss?" a military person asked.

"Um…yes. Could you show me where…uh…Edward Elric is?" she asked timidly.

"Uh, yea sure. Wait right here." He left through the back door behind the desk.

The young girl sat down on a nearby couch and looked at her surroundings. The man continued down a narrow hall and went inside an office where someone sat in a chair but turned away from the door.

"Hawkeye ma'am? There's a young girl here to see Edward but there's something bout her that seems off, do you want to show her to Edward or should I?" the man stuttered.

Riza Hawkeye turned the chair around to face her informer. "I'll go I guess." Riza stood up and followed the man out of the room back to the girl.

"Hello miss, how are you?" Riza bent down to be the girls size.

"Good…but I want to see Ed" the young girl said like she was on the verge of tears.

"Ok ok…well follow me then." Riza led her upstairs and to a door that had 'Elric' engraved on it. Riza knocked the door.

"COMING!" Edward called. Riza and the girl could hear Ed trip and fall on his way to the door. The girl started to giggle. The door opened and Ed stood there with a big goofy grin on his face.

"Ed, this girl is here to see you." Riza patted the girl on the back. Ed looked down at her.

(More character POV's sorry )

Edward's POV –

She looks so familiar! But who does she remind me of…I cant think of a name.

She looked up at me with medium blue eyes. Riza walked away towards Mustang's office…I know those two are gonna end up together eww.

"Little Big Brother!" She leapt at me and hugged me around the waist. She called me… 'Little Big Brother'…Nina used to call him that…wait, no this girl couldn't be…or could she…NO! Nina was transmuted into a chimera and was destroyed! I felt the tears rise up in my eyes.

"Brother? Who was that?" I heard Al call from inside the room. The girl quickly released me and ran inside our room.

"Big brother! You promised you would come back and play with me! You never showed up! What happened to you guys! Why weren't you guys back there waiting for me?" She slurred her words, she was talking so fast.

I closed the door and I could tell Al had the same thoughts I did when he looked up at me.
