No Turning Back

[FMAfanatic1]

In this RPG, we will be creating new adventures for the brothers, while tying them in with the anime series. The same characters, along with some new ones. Both new and old adventures await.


No Turning Back
After Edward and Alphonse Elric tried to bring their mother back, Ed went on to become a state alchemist as they were searching for a way to restore their bodies. Now, Ed's assessment is coming up, and he's pitted against Colonel Roy Mustang, the Flame Alchemist.

Many journies lay ahead for Ed and Al. Here is where we will tell them.

Alphonse Elric
Age: 14
Gender: Male
Main Relations: Trisha Elric (mother) Hoheneim Elric (father) Edward Elric (brother) Izumi Curtis (teacher) Roy Mustang (friend) Nina Tucker (close [deceased] friend)
Background: Al's mother died when he was just 10. Edward and Alphonse tried to bring her back using human transmutation, but it failed and Al lost his body. Edward lost a leg, then sacrificed his arm to bring Al's soul back from the gate and attatch it to a nearby suit of armor. After recooperating, Ed and Al left home when Al was 11 and Edward 12. Now 14, Alphonse follows his brother faithfully wherever their adventures lead them.
Personality: Alphonse is sweet and caring. He's Edward's voice of wisdom, and Alphonse usually acts as a foil for Ed's hot temper.

Alphonse watched his hands as they lay on the circle. Light shot through the rafters and for once, he was happy. It seemed his brother was right, what could go wrong? Suddenly, Al lost feeling in his legs. "Brother!" He yelled. "Al!" Images of their failed transmutation, the creature they DID create, flashed through Al's mind as it groaned and gasped monstrously.

Al jolted from his hibernation state. He looked around the room. It was dark, but he could make out the outline of Ed's sleeping body. He was snoring loudly, sprawled out on the couch. Alphonse smiled to himself. He slowly got up and quieted his footsteps as he left the room. He crept through the hallways until he got outside. From there, he ran. He ran into the surrounding woods outlining the military base. He walked as he entered them. Branches and leaves cracked underneath him as he walked. He suddenly stopped; he had bumped into a tree. He sighed. It was quite large. Alphonse sat on the ground with his head in his hands. He traced a transmutation circle in the dirt by his feet. It glowed brightly when he lay his hands on it. Alchemy was always his escape; a way to make him feel better. That's just what he needed after THAT nightmare. A small metallic, pig-like object was his creation. He picked it up in his hands and remembered when he and Edward had made them for their mother, years ago.

Alphonse noticed the sun beginning to rise. "Have I really been out here that long?" He asked himself. He got up and began making his way back to Ed. "Knowing that lazy bum, he's probably still sleeping." Alphonse laughed to himself.

Alphonse opened the door to the room. He was right, Edward was still sleeping. He had changed positions now, though. His head was stuffed into the pillow, and his butt was high in the air, arms hanging off the couch. Alphonse set the plate of food on the coffee table next to where Ed was flopped on the couch. Al took his spot with his back against the couch, and awaited Ed to wake.

Ed stretched out his arms as he groggily awoke. "About time, brother! It's 10:00!" Ed got up off the couch, stratching his head, still trying to wake up. "Yeah, yeah..... hey! Breakfast!" Ed plopped himself down and began eating. Al sat and watched him. He missed food. He remembered how the meals his mother made, made his taste buds dance with joy when he ate her cooking. But, food was absolete now, in this body.... as well as sleep. "Tomorrow is the day you face off with Mustang, Ed. We'd better get some training in before then." Just then, Al's little kitten came bounding out from under the unused bed in the room. He came and sat himself in Al's lap and he stroked the cat as it purred.

Roy Mustang

Age: ((do you know?))

Background: Roy is a State Alchemist who discovered Ed and Al just after they made their "mistake" and gave Ed the idea of becoming a State Alchemist. Most people call him the Flame Alchemist because of his ability to literaly snap his fingers to make fire. He can do this because he has special gloves that have a transmutation circle imprinted on them. His ranking as a State Alchemist is Colonol and hopes to someday become Furher. ((?))

Personality: Roy's personality is more closed off; he doesn't express his emotions freely. When he has a duty, let's just just say he does what he has to do.

Roy sat at desk in his office on the campus of the military base. He sat there quietly thinking about his face off with Edward Elric. He had peace and quiet until some of the other State Alchemists' abruptly entered the room and started asking all sorts of questions,"Are you nervous?" "This kid's supoosed to be really good at alchemy for his age." "Do you think he has a chance of winning?" Roy looked at them all in a calm state. "Are you kidding me, he's a kid." They all started murmuring things to each other. "I am Colonol Roy Mustang, The Flame Alchemist...I don't think I have anything to worry about," Roy was confident that he could take Edward on with no problem, but as time passed and he heard more and more rumors about Edward he started to wonder if this showdown was going to take a little more work than what he first assumed it would.

After about an hour in Roy's office with the others they finally left and Roy was once again surrounded by peace and quiet. Riza Hawkeye poked her head in,"Colonol?" "Yes, Leuitenant Hawkeye?" replied Roy. "I just wanted to wish you good luck tomorrow and to let you know that I have faith in you." Roy nodded and Riza saluted him and left. Once she was gone he turned to look out the window and watched Riza walk out with a smirk on his face.

Edward stared at Al and his kitten.

"You know we can't keep it, Al!" He got up as he layed down his fork, finished with his meal. Al sighed and continued to pet his little kitten.

"I'm going for a walk...." Ed said. He walked out of the room and started down the hallway. His hair was unbraided from sleeping, so Ed quickly braided it as he walked. Al ran up behind him, kitten in arms. While Ed was braiding his hair, he wasn't watching where he was going, and bumped into Roy Mustang.

"Hey! Watchit!" Ed yelled.

[Dog of the Military]

Roy replies, "Oops sorry, I didn't see you there."

[Feather_Maia]

A vein pops on Ed's forehead.

"ARE YOU IMPLYING THAT I'M SO SHORT THAT YOU COULDN'T EVEN SEE ME!" Ed vigorously panted in anger.

[FMAfanatic1]

Alphonse placed a hand on Ed's shoulder. "Sorry, Major.... don't mind him."

[Dog of the Military]

Oh don't be so over dramatic...so...we have a showdown coming up soon huh? May the best Alchemist win." Roy saluted him and walked off.

[Feather_Maia]

Ed stared after Roy as he walked away.

"Don't worry! I will! And don't forget we have a bargain! Not only will you get me all the info on the Philosopher's stone, but you also will have a furry little houseguest!" Ed pointed to the kitten in Al's arms.

[Dog of the Military]

Roy stopped in his tracks, "A what?" He slowly turned around to see Ed pointing at a small kitten in Al's arms. He smiled and continued to walk on back to his office.

[Feather_Maia]

Ed smirked and turned on his heal. Al attempted to follow, but Ed held up his hand behind him as he walked.

"I'm going to train some out in the courtyard. I'll catch up with you later, Al."
