[00:15] ---
    Along our endless journey,
[00:19] ---
    whenever it looked like we might stop,
[00:23] ---
    releasing a deep sigh,
[00:31] ---
    we'd begin to take hold of each other,
    but then come apart again

[00:37] ---
    But now, there is nothing more to fear
[00:45] ---
    The powerful ties that join our hearts
[00:52] ---
    will never be broken
[01:00] ---
    Here in this place where we have arrived
[01:08] ---
    after searching for so long, we'll place a period
[01:15] ---
    Turning our sorrow and anger to strength,
[01:23] ---
    our destiny is right beside us
[01:40] ---
    Do you remember, Kimblee, when we first met?
[01:45] ---
    The situation is reversed now!
[01:47] ---
    Don't you look down on me!
[01:52] ---
    Kimblee! Why, you!
[01:56] ---
    Why?! Why is Winry here?!
[02:00] ---
    Here we've finally cornered Scar,
    and now he's taken her hostage!
[02:04] ---
    Stand aside.
[02:09] ---
    You dumbass!
[02:11] ---
    Stop, Crimson Alchemist!
[02:14] ---
    Can't you see Winry up there?!
[02:20] ---
    I wish you would keep out of my way.
[02:33] ---
    Just a moment, Scar!
[02:35] ---
    Mr. Kimblee! It's too dangerous
    to get close to the building!
[02:40] ---
    Fall back!
[02:42] ---
    --A snowstorm is moving in!
    --Hurry!
[02:51] ---
    That was a convincing performance.
[02:53] ---
    It wasn't a performance.
[02:55] ---
    I really am seething with
    anger at how worthless I am,
[03:00] ---
    having to put on a charade like this!
[03:05] ---
    Why did you kill my mom and dad?
[03:10] ---
    Anything I say would only be an excuse.
[03:13] ---
    The fact remains,
    I killed the Doctors Rockbell.
[03:18] ---
    With this hand.
[03:26] ---
    Young girl, you have every
    right to pass judgment on me.
[03:42] ---
    Your arm... You're going to bleed
    to death if we don't do something.
[03:46] ---
    --Winry!
    --I know!
[03:48] ---
    But this is probably what Mom and Dad did, too.
[03:55] ---
    Mom and Dad saved his life, after all.
[03:59] ---
    I think there's some sort of meaning in that.
[04:02] ---
    You... are forgiving me?
[04:04] ---
    Don't get me wrong!
    I'm not forgiving your wantonness.
[04:20] ---
    Winry...
[04:22] ---
    It's all right, I'm not going to cry.
[04:26] ---
    I promised you that the next time
    I cried, they'd be tears of joy.
[04:40] ---
    Hey, Scar!
[04:42] ---
    That may be what Winry says,
    but I still want to beat you to a pulp,
[04:47] ---
    and drag you out to the Rockbell family grave!
[04:56] ---
    --Should we contact headquarters?
    --Yeah.
[04:58] ---
    Miles, wasn't it?
[05:02] ---
    Can I ask you something?
[05:04] ---
    What is it?
[05:06] ---
    You called me one of your people.
[05:09] ---
    That's right. I'm Ishvalan,
    on my grandfather's side.
[05:15] ---
    I wish we didn't have to meet
    like this, my red-eyed brother.
[05:21] ---
    Why do you take part in the
    Amestrisian armed forces?
[05:27] ---
    In order to change the minds
    of the people in this country
[05:30] ---
    regarding Ishvalans from the inside.
[05:36] ---
    I doubt it's going to be so easy to change minds.
[05:41] ---
    There's no telling how long it will take.
[05:44] ---
    But there's something that I can do,
    because of my mixed blood.
[05:48] ---
    I am an Ishvalan pebble,
    tossed into the Amestrisian armed forces,
[05:53] ---
    and in time, perhaps my small
    ripples may become great waves.
[06:00] ---
    And, ironically enough,
[06:03] ---
    it was a native-born Amestrisian
    that made me realize it.
[06:11] ---
    I am the festering discharge
    of hatred, born of that civil war.
[06:18] ---
    I am glad that there are those like you.
[06:23] ---
    Major...
[06:27] ---
    Headquarters? This is Miles.
[06:30] ---
    We've captured Scar in a building in Area D.
[06:33] ---
    Inform Kimblee.
[06:39] ---
    Whatever your circumstances
    might be, I cannot let you go.
[06:44] ---
    You must accept the judgment due to you.
[06:46] ---
    Just a moment!
[06:47] ---
    Who are you?
[06:49] ---
    May!
[06:51] ---
    Dr. Marcoh!
[06:53] ---
    Please don't take that man away.
[07:00] ---
    This isn't looking good, Mr. Kimblee.
[07:03] ---
    The clouds are moving fast.
    There's a storm coming in.
[07:09] ---
    Hurry it up.
[07:12] ---
    Deciphering research notes?
[07:14] ---
    It's ground-breaking
    research that attempts to fuse
[07:17] ---
    Amestrisian alchemy and Xingese alkahestry.
[07:20] ---
    But all of the critical parts
    are written in ancient Ishvalan.
[07:25] ---
    Scar is the only one who
    can read it. So you see...
[07:32] ---
    You're the alkahestry girl, aren't you?
[07:34] ---
    I have orders to bring you back to the fort.
[07:37] ---
    Eh? M-Me?
[07:40] ---
    Don't worry, you're to receive a warm welcome.
[07:44] ---
    Well now, if Scar can't be captured,
[07:47] ---
    and it would be bad if they
    found out that Marcoh is here...
[07:51] ---
    Hmm... It might be best
[07:54] ---
    to hide all of you together at Fort Briggs.
[07:57] ---
    Hold on a second. What do you mean?
[08:00] ---
    Are you telling me we're bringing him, too?!
[08:03] ---
    We need him to decipher
    the research notes, right?
[08:06] ---
    To think that we need this guy's help...
[08:09] ---
    Just hand him over to Kimblee, already!
[08:11] ---
    The countrywide transmutation circle...
[08:14] ---
    ...and the origins of this country...
[08:16] ---
    I heard all about it from General Armstrong.
[08:20] ---
    Something is about to happen
    that is going to engulf all of Amestris.
[08:24] ---
    Deciphering the research notes
[08:26] ---
    is more important than anything, isn't it?
[08:30] ---
    I heard that the Rockbell girl
    is being kept as their hostage.
[08:35] ---
    If we act now, we can disgrace
    Kimblee, and hide her away.
[08:46] ---
    Scar, if you will work with us,
[08:49] ---
    I will postpone your judgment until later.
[08:51] ---
    What do you say?
[08:53] ---
    It appears that I don't have any other choice.
[08:57] ---
    I promise to work with you.
[09:00] ---
    You're sincere?
[09:02] ---
    I swear it on my Ishvalan blood,
    my red-eyed brother.
[09:08] ---
    That's that. I'm sorry, miss,
[09:12] ---
    but you'll have to wait a short
    while for him to be punished.
[09:15] ---
    Okay.
[09:18] ---
    Come to think of it, I forgot about these guys.
[09:22] ---
    --Dispose of them.
    --Yes, sir.
[09:23] ---
    H-Hey!
[09:25] ---
    Just a minute! You don't have to kill them!
[09:27] ---
    There's no value in leaving them alive. Kill them.
[09:30] ---
    No, it's not about value.
    Isn't there any way to let them live?
[09:35] ---
    Hmph, are you showing us mercy? Is that it?
[09:38] ---
    Who asked you, you sentimental know-nothing?
[09:43] ---
    In the bodies we have, we know
    what lies ahead for us, anyhow.
[09:45] ---
    If you're gonna kill us, then do it!
[09:49] ---
    Misters, don't you have families, or loved ones?
[09:53] ---
    Sure we do.
[09:54] ---
    But once we got these bodies,
    they were told that we were dead.
[09:59] ---
    We haven't seen them since.
[10:00] ---
    Don't you want to see them?
[10:02] ---
    Even if we do, there's no
    way we can, in our shape.
[10:08] ---
    Then, you don't want to go
    back to your original bodies.
[10:11] ---
    You're content with the bodies you have, huh?
[10:14] ---
    No way we could be!
[10:15] ---
    Of course we want to go back!
[10:18] ---
    There's your answer, right?
[10:21] ---
    Don't go talking to me
    about "anyhows" or "no ways."
[10:25] ---
    Not without investigating the possibility
[10:27] ---
    of getting your original bodies back.
[10:29] ---
    Hmph, what could you possibly know about us?
[10:33] ---
    What possibility is there of going back?
[10:40] ---
    I'm going back. No matter
    how many years it takes,
[10:44] ---
    I'm not going to give up.
[10:48] ---
    Major!
[10:51] ---
    --What is it?
    --This is bad.
[10:53] ---
    There's going to be a storm.
[10:54] ---
    We can't conduct a snowbound march
    with the equipment here.
[10:58] ---
    We won't be able to reach the fort at this rate.
[11:02] ---
    What do we do?
[11:03] ---
    This is a mining town, right?
[11:05] ---
    Why don't we just use the underground tunnels?
[11:09] ---
    W-What? I mean, as large as this mine is,
[11:14] ---
    there has to be a tunnel that goes
    beyond the mountain... I think.
[11:20] ---
    --That's it!
    --Mr. Yoki!
[11:22] ---
    Give a little credit to the former mine proprietor.
[11:25] ---
    We can make it! The tunnels
    come out past the mountain!
[11:29] ---
    All right. Once you meet
    some soldiers from Fort Briggs,
[11:32] ---
    give them this. I've written
    down what's going on inside,
[11:36] ---
    so they will provide you with shelter.
[11:38] ---
    Thank you.
[11:41] ---
    That leaves the matter of the young lady.
[11:44] ---
    Assuming she comes together with us,
[11:47] ---
    when it comes out that she's gone missing,
[11:49] ---
    the Elric brothers will be the first
    ones they suspect, won't they?
[11:54] ---
    We can handle ourselves.
[11:55] ---
    I don't mean to brag, but when it
    comes to having a smooth tongue...
[11:59] ---
    No, this is the skeptical
    Kimblee we're dealing with.
[12:03] ---
    If you try anything half-cocked,
    it will just make him more suspicious.
[12:13] ---
    Um, I hate to be the one
    to suggest this, but, um...
[12:20] ---
    ...what if I were to be taken hostage by Scar?
[12:31] ---
    Kidnapped?
[12:33] ---
    So what you're saying is, let him go?
[12:38] ---
    Yes, Scar will run away, carrying me.
[12:42] ---
    Ed, you and the others will
    try desperately to stop him,
[12:44] ---
    or so it will look like to those who are after us.
[12:47] ---
    How can you do anything so dangerous?!
[12:49] ---
    My life is in their hands!
[12:51] ---
    So unless I risk my life
    to escape, I won't get away!
[12:55] ---
    But to go together with Scar...!
[12:57] ---
    Yeah! There's no need for you to risk your life!
[13:01] ---
    You guys, stop always, always
    taking everything upon yourselves!
[13:08] ---
    Make up your minds quickly.
    The storm is closing in.
[13:12] ---
    Soon, we won't be able
    to set one foot out of here.
[13:20] ---
    Kimblee's forces are within sight!
[13:25] ---
    Damn it all!
[13:27] ---
    Scar, if you pull anything...!
[13:30] ---
    I know. I will keep my promise.
[13:38] ---
    Us, too...
[13:41] ---
    Take us with you, too!
[13:44] ---
    I know you don't trust us,
[13:46] ---
    so we don't mind if you take us in cuffs.
[13:50] ---
    Mr. Kimblee is merciless to
    troops who can't do their jobs.
[13:53] ---
    One way or the other, we're dead. Besides,
[13:57] ---
    we don't want to give up, either.
[14:01] ---
    You're sure we can trust you?
[14:05] ---
    If you do anything to obstruct us,
    the country could be destroyed.
[14:11] ---
    Including your loved ones.
[14:14] ---
    Hold on a minute! What do you mean by that?!
[14:17] ---
    The Central forces weren't
    told anything about this!
[14:20] ---
    Tell us more! What's going on?!
[14:31] ---
    You're sure about this?
[14:33] ---
    Yeah. You'll be able to rest easier this way, too.
[14:37] ---
    Scar, give us a good show.
[14:41] ---
    All right.
[14:42] ---
    You keep your oath, on your Ishvalan blood.
[14:52] ---
    Miss, your ear piercings.
[14:56] ---
    They're made of metal, right?
[14:58] ---
    If you don't take them out, you'll get frostbite.
[15:09] ---
    Ed...
[15:12] ---
    You hang onto these.
[15:16] ---
    I'll be waiting for you at the fort.
[15:28] ---
    Kimblee! Why, you!
[15:30] ---
    How come you didn't keep an eye on Winry?!
[15:49] ---
    I'm worried about Zampano and Gerso.
[15:52] ---
    Either Scar did them in,
    or they're trapped out in this storm.
[15:56] ---
    Scar won't be able to move, either.
[15:58] ---
    He must be somewhere in this town.
[16:01] ---
    Let's make arrangements for our next
    search operation now, while we can.
[16:05] ---
    Man, this storm really saved our hides.
[16:09] ---
    Please let them reach the fort, quickly.
[16:13] ---
    Major Miles, Briggs is on the line for you.
[16:20] ---
    This is Miles.
[16:24] ---
    What?!
[16:29] ---
    So then, you're the daughter of the Rockbells?
[16:34] ---
    You knew my parents?
[16:36] ---
    There isn't a doctor that went through Ishval
[16:39] ---
    that doesn't know their names.
[16:42] ---
    They stuck to their physician's duty,
    without any regard for themselves.
[16:48] ---
    I'm not forgiving your wantonness.
[16:52] ---
    You must abide this.
[16:55] ---
    And forgive what the armed forces have done?!
[16:58] ---
    "Forgiving" is not "abiding."
[17:00] ---
    You must not forgive the
    wantonness of the world.
[17:03] ---
    As a man, you must be indignant at it.
    But you must abide it.
[17:08] ---
    You must sever the chain of hatred.
[17:12] ---
    If negative feelings come together,
[17:14] ---
    the world will be caught
    in a stream of negativity.
[17:17] ---
    On the other hand, if positive
    feelings are brought together,
[17:20] ---
    we can also make the world a positive stream.
[17:24] ---
    That's the reason why I'm learning alchemy.
[17:31] ---
    Oh, here it is, here it is.
[17:34] ---
    What is this place?
[17:36] ---
    The mine's staff room. In here should be...
[17:39] ---
    Ah, here it is.
[17:41] ---
    See? A detailed map of the tunnels.
[17:45] ---
    Looks complicated.
[17:46] ---
    I can't tell what is what.
[17:48] ---
    We need to go through here, here, and here.
[17:51] ---
    Ho, you're amazing.
[17:54] ---
    Keep the praise coming.
[17:56] ---
    At this rate, we should get to
    the other side of the mountain
[17:59] ---
    quicker than we thought.
[18:02] ---
    Say, Dr. Marcoh, are there any
    hints in those research notes
[18:05] ---
    about how we can get our original bodies back?
[18:09] ---
    There is a possibility.
[18:11] ---
    After all, it is an alchemy
    that we know nothing about.
[18:14] ---
    We've got great expectations, Doc.
[18:16] ---
    Ah, I can't wait to see my family again.
[18:20] ---
    And as henpecked as you used to be!
[18:23] ---
    It's only your daughter you miss, isn't it?
[18:26] ---
    What about you? You were such a drunkard,
[18:29] ---
    your son can't stand you, can he?
    You think you can face him now?
[18:34] ---
    You would have to say that.
[18:38] ---
    Is something the matter, May?
[18:40] ---
    No...
[18:43] ---
    Back in my country, my clan is waiting for me,
[18:46] ---
    but when I think about when I go back...
[18:51] ---
    The Philosopher's Stone
    is made from living people.
[18:55] ---
    No one should be allowed to seek it.
[18:58] ---
    Even without the Stone,
    if he knew how to make one,
[19:01] ---
    His Highness, the Emperor
    wouldn't hesitate to try it out,
[19:05] ---
    and sacrifice a great deal of people.
[19:10] ---
    Just how does one obtain immortality?
[19:14] ---
    It's possible that the answer to that
[19:16] ---
    is written in these research notes.
[19:19] ---
    Let's hurry to the fort,
    and carefully decipher them.
[19:23] ---
    Right.
[19:24] ---
    The fort is no longer safe?!
[19:27] ---
    General Armstrong was
    summoned back to Central.
[19:31] ---
    There are Central forces
    entering the fort in great numbers.
[19:35] ---
    No doubt at Kimblee's behest.
    When we were at the fort,
[19:39] ---
    he was making calls pretty frequently, after all.
[19:42] ---
    Hold on. If the general is gone...
[19:46] ---
    A commander affiliated with Bradley
    will be posted in her place.
[19:50] ---
    Then, what about Winry and the others?!
[19:52] ---
    Hiding them just became difficult.
[19:54] ---
    In fact, if they're not careful,
    they'll fall into enemy hands.
[20:02] ---
    We have to warn Winry and the others somehow.
[20:04] ---
    It will be impossible to
    catch up to them in this storm.
[20:08] ---
    So are we just going to let them go?!
    I'm going after them!
[20:11] ---
    Don't go belittling the storm, rookie.
[20:14] ---
    You'll lose all your strength in
    no time flat, and freeze to death.
[20:18] ---
    There is a way.
[20:21] ---
    A person with a body that doesn't get tired,
[20:25] ---
    and won't freeze to death.
[20:35] ---
    This is worse than I imagined.
[20:37] ---
    Let's see... the marker, the marker...
[20:42] ---
    There it is!
[20:50] ---
    Everything is white. I can't see anything.
[21:19] ---
    What was that just now? My body?
[21:24] ---
    How did...?
[21:26] ---
    It's inherently impossible
    to stick someone's body
[21:28] ---
    together with a different soul.
[21:31] ---
    A body, which by all rights
    shouldn't have a soul in it...
[21:35] ---
    It's being rejected!
[21:39] ---
    My body is pulling on my soul?!
[21:46] ---
    Snap out of it! Snap out of it!
[21:52] ---
    I have to hurry.
[21:58] ---
    Alphonse Elric...
[22:03] ---
    Edward Elric...
[22:08] ---
    And...
[22:11] ---
    Van Hohenheim...
[22:14] ---
    Izumi Curtis, is also...
[22:17] ---
    ...a possibility.
[22:23] ---
    That leaves one more...
[22:41] ---
    A promise that we would have never made
[22:45] ---
    will seek to take our future from us again today
[22:52] ---
    Why is it that even though
    we got what we wanted,

[22:56] ---
    we are unable to offer an honest smile?
[23:03] ---
    These tears welling up
    are fragments born of pain,

[23:08] ---
    not of weakness or regret
