Mom!

Look at this, Mom!

And mine. Cool, isn't it?

Ed and Al...

I'm so proud.

Your alchemy skills have improved!

Will Daddy be impressed?

He'll be back one day

so you can show him.

Yippee!

Watch out, you two!

Mom?

Mom!

I'm hungry.

And cold.

I want to see Mom...

The alchemy book had something

about the Homunculi.

You mean artificial humans?

I wonder if we can bring Mom back.

But it's taboo for alchemists

to create humans.

We don't need to tell anyone.

35 liters of water,

20 kilograms of carbon.

4 liters of ammonia,

1.5 kilograms of lime.

800 grams of phosphorus,

250 grams of salt.

100 grams of saltpeter,

80 grams of sulfur.

7.5 grams of fluorine, 5 grams of iron.

3 grams of silicon...

Plus 15 other chemicals.

Adult humans are made of...

readily available products.

All in line with

the Law of Equivalent Exchange...

of alchemy.

We need one more thing.

The data of a human soul.

Is this really okay?

Don't say that now!

But in the alchemy book

it says it's taboo.

Don't you want to see Mom again?

I do...

Okay then!

Ready, Al?

Okay.

Something is wrong!

Al!

Ed!

Al!

Ed!

Ed!

Al!

Ed!

Ed, help!

Al!

Old man, just hand me that ring.

The Philosopher's Stone!

Give it up!

That's awesome!

The Stone does that?

It must be the real thing.

You can transmute without a circle!

You saved my ass!

You're hollow!

What are you two?

Hey.

That hurts.

Get off me!

That...

prosthetic arm...

and leg!

You're...

the Fullmetal Alchemist!

You mean you've heard of me?

Now hand it over.

The Philosopher's Stone!

How sneaky...

- His Holiness?

- His Holiness?

Don't you see?

The pastor doesn't perform miracles.

He conned everyone in town. He's a fake.

Stay away!

I'll kill her!

You third-grade alchemist!

I'll show you what separates us.

Huh?

Focus!

It's been a long time, Fullmetal.

Colonel!

The Flame Alchemist.

Arrest him!

What? Let me go!

I came to town for an inspection

when I heard a puny alchemist

was causing havoc.

Who are you calling puny?

Hey!

What in the hell have you made?

Let go!

I finally found the Stone.

The Philosopher's Stone is perfect

and indestructible...

Correct?

It's another fake...

Ed.

Sorry, Al.

You!

Halt!

- Take him to East Area Headquarters.

- Yes, sir!

Ed.

Reole.

This is Reole.

I know!

You're the famous Fullmetal Alchemist!

Of course!

You became a State-certified alchemist

at 12!

Did you get that name

'cause of the armor?

It's not me that you mean.

It's my brother.

You mean, the shorty?

Yes.

That's baloney!

It's true!

He can do alchemy

without a transmutation circle.

He might not be tall...

but my brother has a big heart.

Okay, you've made your point.

So, ask that shrimpy kid

to give me a shiny new marble stall.

Alchemy is not magic.

It's science. We can't do that...

Don't be stingy.

Like this!

The Law of Equivalent Exchange

applies to objects

when they're transmuted.

Conservation of mass, natural providence,

the four protyles and major elements...

Oops.

Okay.

To create something,

I need material of the same mass.

Water would be transmuted

into something similar.

Nothing you say makes sense,

but in short...

you can't make marble out of wood?

I'm sorry.

Al!

Winry!

It's been ages.

Hey.

Where's Ed?

I'll find the Stone!

Give up!

It's only a myth.

What about that stone?

It had powers.

Like I said...

it was an amplifier.

We're developing a similar stone.

But...

it doesn't amplify much.

The power to transmute a human

would be in the tens of thousands!

Besides...

the Military says there's no Stone.

They're clueless!

What's that?

A State Alchemist can't be subversive!

I need the Philosopher's Stone.

So Al can get back his body.

That's why I slave away

as a State Alchemist.

To access the secret of the Stone.

And to get your limbs back.

I'm not doing it for me!

Al's my priority.

I want to get his body back.

And for that,

you would destroy a town?

For Al's sake...

I'd do anything.

You must obey the State Military.

Find another way.

Forget about the Philosopher's Stone.

Can I come in?

Hey!

Captain Hughes!

Looking good, Ed.

General Hakuro.

Here you are...

Fullmetal Alchemist.

Finally we meet!

You did some demolishing?

And...

I heard you have a brother...

In armor.

He's fixing up the town that I wrecked.

Picking up after you!

I'd love to meet your armored brother!

And hear about your adventures.

Sure!

"A State Alchemist can't be subversive!"

He acts so superior...

The Colonel gets more and more obnoxious.

Well, he did get a promotion.

I guess he has what it takes.

And you don't, Captain?

Hey!

Watch it.

Why are you at East Area HQ?

Not for a demotion!

I came for an inspection.

I'm beat! I just came from Central City.

Ed!

Winry?

Whoa, whoa...

What did you do to it?

You know what I put into this

first-rate automail arm?

Sorry.

What did you do to it?

Let's see, I fought stone beasts...

It's beyond repair.

I'll have to make it from scratch!

Captain Hughes came from Central

on short notice.

For an inspection?

At this time?

That's right.

Could he have a hidden agenda?

Do you know something?

No, sir.

The Fhrer works in mysterious ways.

You're a brilliant officer.

Don't let people

walk all over you.

You know Shou Tucker?

Yes.

The State Alchemist

who transmutes chimeras.

Can you introduce the brothers to Tucker?

Ed and Al, sir?

I want to do something for those boys.

Yes, sir.

Don't be hasty! Please!

I have influence in town.

Listen!

I messed up because

your Philosopher's Stone

was a fake!

A fake?

Do you think there's a real one?

If not, there can't be a fake one.

Right, Envy?

Oh, no.

The real one's gone.

Then I can't be accused

of being a fake either.

Please, Lust...

Can I eat this?

No, Gluttony.

If you eat him...

you'll get an upset tummy.

Can we really stay here tonight, Gracia?

Sure. The more the merrier.

This huge house is ours for a month.

The State Military sure spoils captains!

Ed!

Oh, God...

Is it hard being his mechanic, Winry?

It's terrible!

Only Ed breaks my automails.

Not on purpose...

Don't break it again.

It makes my work look shoddy.

Stop complaining, will you?

Don't talk back!

She's worried about you.

She knew from the damaged arm

that you were in danger.

No! I don't worry about him...

You three grew up together?

Right.

We were born in Resenbool.

We grew up together like siblings.

By the way, how did you two meet?

- You wanna know?

- Yes!

Great! Where do I begin?

Once he starts, he won't stop.

I'll get seconds.

Don't get up. I'll do it.

Mom-to-be!

Al?

Ed!

Al!

Huh?

What was I doing?

You!

Who are you?

I am what you call the world.

The universe.

God.

Truth.

One...

and all.

I am also...

you.

Here's what you wanted.

The truth.

My head hurts.

Don't destroy me.

No!

Please don't!

Mom.

Mom!

Well?

I understand now.

The truth.

I knew my theory was right.

I was so close to the truth

of Human Transmutation!
