Hello everybody! I literally just got the idea for this story. I know that most FMA OC fanfictions involve a fan falling into to the universe, but I thought, "What if someone from Amestris was sent to Earth and in a time where technology was so advanced, like now, that we don't use alchemy? *gasp* HOLY SHIT A STORY IDEA!" And, now here I am, writing this.

At 12 in the flipping morning.

But hey, at least I'm using my new tablet to do something productive! :D

Anyway, I wanted my story to be unique and different than the other ones I've read in this category, so...here you go.

Disclaimer: Fullmetal Alchemist belongs to the lovely Hiromu Arakawa, so don't sue me please. I'm broke. :c


Chapter One - Human Transmutation


"Al? Ed?"

"Yeah, Dawn?"

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"We're sure."

"But Pinako said-"

"It's the only way we can bring Mom back."

I sighed. Ed can be so stubborn. I thought, biting the inside of my cheek. Ed and Al were my best friends, along with Winry. It was always fun to play with them. But their mother died recently, and the cheerful, playful Ed I knew became so...cold, and distant. I was crushed when I heard the news. Trisha Elric was like a second mother to me. Don't get me wrong, I love my parents, but my mom wasn't very playful, and I hardly ever saw my dad. He was a State Alchemist. When my mom found out I was practicing alchemy like my dad, she was so happy. My dad was trilled, too. He told me in his letters that he was so proud of me, and hopes that I'll follow in his footsteps and become a State Alchemist, just like him.

But if I told him what we were doing with alchemy today, he would not be happy.

Ed and Al told me that there's a certain kind of alchemy called human transmutation, and it can be used to bring the dead back to life. We told Winry about what we were doing, but she said that she didn't want us to do it. It was pretty obvious that she wasn't a fan of alchemy. The first time we attempted to do alchemy in front of her, she got really scared and cried. I don't blame her, though. We were trying to transmutate a doll out of sand, but while it was in the middle of tramsmutating, the sand formed into a ghostly face, and it didn't help that it was swaying. So, I don't blame her for getting scared. But this time, I was scared. Our book on alchemy said that you should never, ever perform human transmutation. I tried to talk Ed and Al out of doing it, but it failed, and now I'm doing it with them. Not only was I scared for my safety, but theirs as well.

"Are you both ready?" Ed asked after getting everything ready.

Al nodded quickly, while I tugged at the end of my yellow sundress and nodding slowly and nervously. Ed didn't notice my nervousness, because he nodded as well, giving both of us a firm, determined stare. I took a deep breath while trembling, making both of the Elric brothers notice how scared I was.

Al put his hand on my shoulder and asked, "Do you need more time, Dawn?"

I shook my head and replied, "No, I'm fine. Just a little nervous."

Al nodded in understanding. Ed didn't say anything, he kept giving me his hard stare, but I could tell that he was concerned, because after Trisha died, Ed changed a lot. He didn't joke around and play as much, and he rarely showed his emotions. But if you knew him like Al, Winry, and I did, you could tell how he was feeling.

"Okay," I said, "let's do this."

Ed and Al nodded. Boy, there was a lot of nodding today. We clapped our hands in unison before slamming them down onto the transmutation circle Ed drew. I instantly regretted it, because my hands started throbbing like no tomorrow from slamming on the concrete. Suddenly, sparks started shooting out of the circle, making me forget my throbbing hands. I kept my eyes fixated on the sparks. After a few seconds, the sparks turned into a black and red portal. The wind blew my chin-length dark brown hair into my face, but I ignored it and kept my eyes on the portal. Then, out of nowhere, giant black hands came out of the portal, making my eyes widen in terror. The hands put their focus on me, but I didn't do anything. I was frozed in fear. One of the hands lundged out to me, grabbing me. I screamed and tears started flowing down my face.

"DAWN!" The brothers yelled.

Ed reached out to try to grab my hand, and I tried to grab his, but the hand's grip was extremely strong, and he was only able to grab my bracelet. But the hand went down too deep, and he was only able to grab my bracelet, it sliding off my wrist. The last thing I saw before the hand pulled me into the dark abyss and I lost consciousness was Ed's face, tears flowing out of his eyes like waterfalls, clutching my bracelet in his left hand.


Chapter One finished! Jeez, it's only the first chapter and its sad...I'm a terrible person.

Started writing at 12 and finished at 3...it's amazing how much I can write in a short amount of time.

By the way, if you're wondering what Dawn's last name means, this is what the website I got it from says it means:

Jewish and Swedish: ornamental name composed of German Blumen 'flowers' and Thal 'valley'.

I'm sorry its so short. To be honest, I thought it would be longer. The next chapter will be longer, I promise.

I will see you all in my other stories or in the next chapter. Peace!
