NAOMI
In the mines, I learned of Xingese Alkahestry, and that their 'Perfect human' had Golden hair and eyes. "Huh...just like Ed...(and Al)." I chuckled. We exited the tunnels shortly after, and found Al. He brought food and warnings.
We began to walk, when Al collapsed. "AL!!!" "My soul...is being pulled..." "What..?" "Has this happened before?" "No..no! AL! AL! SOMEONE!" I felt tears sting my eyes, "SOMEONE! ED!!!"

EDWARD
I lie there, stabbed through my side, when I thought I heard someone call me. I saw the faces of Riza and Al...heard their voices faintly, but the only one I seemed to focus on was Naomi.
"Let me help you for once! Don't die, and I won't have to. Hold onto these for me."
No. I won't make her cry because of me.

We were forced to disembody Al and carry him seperately. To say he was confused when he woke would be an understatement.
Then, Mei came up with rearranging the pages of Scar's brother's book. Al came up with reversing it. "...! Al! You're a genius!" I cried. Mei drew the Alkahestric Nation wide circle.
We ended up staying in a small villiage of Ishvalans. We lured Envy out and turned them into a lizard. Of course, easier said than done, but with Mei's alkahestry and mine and Al's alchemy, we managed.
But...then Envy said Ed's gone missing. I felt my blood run cold. Everyone started speculating, but I felt numb. "Naomi! Don't worry!" Al said, "This is Ed we're talking about...he's got it!" I hummed, nodding. "Y-Yeah...haaa..." I sighed, shaking. "Al...?" "Yeah?" "I suddenly feel really cold."

We then continued on to Leore. Rose asked about Ed, which Al answered (thank GOD). "Aw...shame. I wanted to see him again." Rose said. I must've made my jealousy a tad too transparent, since Al gave me a weird laugh: "Hoho~~" "WHAT'RE YOU LAUGHING AT!?" "You had a weird look on your face is all. Are you Ed's--?" "BEST FRIEND? YES YEP I AM HAHAHA."
Then, someone approached, and my Jaw dropped. "YOU!?" A chorus of three sounded out. Then, someone jogged around the corner I hadn't seen in ages, "ELYSABETH!?"

Here they were, Van Hohenheim, and Elysabeth Zerro, in the flesh. We didn't really catch up, a tight hug and a whisper was all Lys and I gave: "Ed's dissapeared."
A few moments later, Rose had dragged me to her house and allowed me to take a bath. We talked a bit.
She thanked me for what Ed, Al and I did. "I'm sorry we were so blunt," I said. Rose shook her head. "It's fine. It all worked out. And besides, your bluntness it was makes you such good people, in a way."

Later on, Al, Hohenheim, Lys and I gathered. Hohenheim told us his story, and I aplogized for how I acted in Resembool. "It's fine," He assured me, "Your actions were justified."
Hohenheim told us of the promised day, and I shuddered.
