Chapter 1: Equivalent Exchange
Pairings: Kagome/ Edward

(A.N.) I apologize for making you wait so long for this story to come out, but you have to understand that I HAD WORK!!!! GOD DAMN IT! Ok and I give credit to good people who helped me: Thank you to Allison, Moon bunny, and Catsrcool13 (don’t know your name here)
On to the story now!
I hope you like it! ^_^
Oh and one more thing, I wanted to do this for fun just once, at least, pay attention to the very beginning of the chapter.


Humankind cannot gain anything with out first giving something in return.
To obtain, something of equal value must be lost.
That is alchemy’s first law of Equivalent Exchange.
In those days, we really believed that to be the world’s one, and only, truth.

(Enter opening song)

(Its over)


(Kagome pov.)

All I wanted was to see them again…
Did I do something wrong
...?
How can I change my mistake…?

I was born near Central, and like my parents I wanted to become a State Alchemist myself…

Flashback~

“Mama! Mama! Look what I made!” called a young girl
“Let’s see what you made, Kagome” said her mother
“I made some flowers with alchemy!” yelled an excited Kagome
“There lovely” complimented her mother

End Flashback~

…and even though my skills were great, I knew that I could do better. And that one day that I would have the chance to fight along side my parents in the military.

And then it happened, though I pleaded for them not to leave they said that it was their duty and that they promised that they would come back, the Isabal war had begun.

Flashback~

“Please don’t go! MAMA! PAPA! DON’T GO!” screamed Kagome
“Sorry sweetie but we have to go; it is our job to help out at time like this.” Said her mother
“We’ll come back as soon as we can.” Claimed her father
“Now be a big girl and behave your self” said her mother
“Ok, I’ll wait” replied Kagome

End Flashback~

They said that they would come back for me…but it was a lie. When I heard what happened to them I was devastated…

Flashback~

*Knock*
*Knock*
* Knock*
Kagome ran to the door as fast as she could, thinking that her parents had finally came back. When she answered the door it was not her parents but some of the state alchemists, which she recognized, with sad faces.

“What is wrong?” said kagome –she began to fear the worst
“Your parents…they did not make it” said one of the alchemists said
“What do you mean’ they did not make it’?” she questioned
“They where killed in an explosion from a surprise attack, and they could not get away” said another alchemist
“NO!! THAT IS A LIE!!!...they said that they would come back” kagome said
“Come on let’s go …to their funeral”

And with that they left...

End Flashback~


They once promised me that they would never leave me alone…

Flashback~

As people began to leave the cemetery grounds only one person remained to mourn the loss of her mother and father.
Kagome stared at their graves with a heavy heart…

“You said that you would never leave me…why, why did you have to go…I promise I will find a way to bring you back to me… I promise you that”

End Flashback~

After the long years* of researching I’ve finally perfected a way to revive both my mother and father… it may have worked for a while but something went wrong…

(A/N: ok people in years I mean like 1 ½ yrs. Or 2 yrs. Ok? Good now on with the story…oh and one more thing she is at least half a year younger that Ed ok... and one more thing, at this time she is about 6 or 7 years old got that?)

Flashback~

“Ok I think I’ve got every thing now…

Water: 35 Liters.
Carbon: 20 Kg.
Ammonia: 4 Liters.
Lime: 1.5 Kg.
Phosphorus: 800 G.
Salt: 250 G. Saltpeter: 100 G
Sulfur: 80 G.
Fluorine: 7.5 G.
Iron: 5 G.
Silicon: 3 G.

And 15 other elements in small quantities…yup, that is everything to make mom, sooo all I have to do is double the amount to make mom and dad! Yes finally I will bring you back to me…mother, father… I will succeed at bring you back…now all I have to do is create the transmutation circle *sigh* well hear goes nothing…”

There she drew the finale thing she needed to get her parents back, the human transmutation circle… she knew what she was doing was forbidden, and she would face the consequences later for all she could think of now was how she would be able to see her parents again…

“Ok here I go!”

And with that her hands touched the ground, where the transmutation was drawn, it lit up shining with a light that from which you could say that came form the heavens…when it suddenly turned black.

“Huh? What’s going on!?! AHHHHHH!!!”

All of a sudden she could feel the ripping of her own flesh! She took a look at her arm and saw millions of shadowed hands reaching for her. And she was being pulled toward a gate that seemed to pop out of nowhere *flash* as soon as it came it vanished leaving her bleeding* on the ground with knowledge beyond a master alchemist dreamed of having…

*
A/N: Ok the gate and the hands, if you watched the show and read the manga you know what it is ok, ok, good! Ok so it took her right arm ok, so now it is just a bleeding stump. And during the time of the hands pulling her towards the gate it gave knowledge, just like Ed but more because she has succeeded in bringing her parented back but is there a flaw??? Keep reading!

“No…no…this was not supposed to happen! *screams in agony*” kagome screamed

“K...Kagome?”

They were alive her parents!! She succeeded in bringing them back form the dead…but at a price…

“Mom, dad your back!” yelled kagome*
“Oh dear what happened to you!?!?” asked her frightened mother
“I brought you back” was all Kagome could say before she blacked out

*A/N: my friend Allison waves a flag for Kagome; she says for the idiots who don’t get it, it is supposed to be funny! ME= she made me do it!
Shut up!!!-Allison

End Flashback~

They were with me and I would do anything to keep it that way…but fate seem to be against me…I vowed to keep trying, nothing and I mean nothing would get in my way…

Flashback~

Kagome woke up in the hospital an hour later seeing her parents near her, she smiled.

“Kagome please tell us what happened” her father asked

The next hour kagome explained everything about their death and the year of research, also the resurrection. They where shocked to say the least.

“Kagome you know that that is forbidden alchemy! What if you get caught!?” screamed her father
“But I did it for you…” said Kagome
“Yes you did but look what it did to you” her mother said
“It is ok I’ll just get auto-mail mom” replied Kagome
“Are you sure that you want this?” her father asked
“Yes” Kagome said

Later, after the first surgery, Kagome saw her mother and father again smiling at her before the began to” melt”.

“What!?! How can this be there forms should have been stable!! MOM! DAD!
NOOOOO!!!!!” Said an astonished Kagome

Her parents had become a pile of black bloody mush before her eyes…she could not believe it she thought that her theory should have been perfect no flaws what so ever…

“No…what happened?”

Over the next two months Kagome was recovering from her surgery while researching more on her theory…during this time kagome began to train in the arts of combat learning every thing she could know…while also designing her own auto-mail design…after about four months of waiting she decided to try transmuting her parents one more time…

End Flashback~

I guess that, after my second try, I learned those teachings that do not speak of pain have no meaning…
…because humankind cannot gain anything without first giving up something in return.

Flashback~

“Just one more time… ok here goes”
*clap*

Kagome began what she thought was a new theory; she thought that it was better than the last one... one that could by pass every flaw she made before… but she was wrong.

“AHHHHHH!! Not again!! NOOO!!!!”

She watch terrified as the black light came again only to grab and take away her left leg, ripping the flesh just like it did her arm.

“MOM!!DAD!! HELP” she screamed only to realize that her parents were not even human! They had turned into a creature that kept chanting her name it, was sickening.

“No…NO…NOOO!!!! This can not happen I thought that my theory was flawless this time!”

She then dragged her self up the stairs and to the phone calling for help thinking that she could burry the creature later…

End Flashback~

After that I knew that I could not keep reviving my parents because I did not know what would happen the next time…afterwards I got a replacement auto-mail limp for my stump of a left leg.

After a while I heard news of the military coming to get me for my crimes…so I ran…to where I did not know, but it was better that staying in a place with too many memories of my past…
…so all I did was run.

Flashback~

Kagome was packing important possessions* in her bag, she ran to the basement and grabbed her locket that contained a picture of her family. When all of a sudden she heard the smashing of her front door and the calls of the military … she escaped through the basement door, thought to just disappear but the search would continue at the next sighting of her... but that is for another day …

*A/N: don’t ask what she brought with her use you noggin!!! OH BUT SHE DID BRING HER NOTES, JOURNAL, AND STUFF OK!!! Bye-bye

End Flashback~

That is were my journey begins and where it will take me who knows…
