[01:32] ---
    The "Promised Day," which was to come.
[01:35] ---
    There were those who moved
    forward their preparations

[01:37] ---
    for this day that would shape their destiny.
[01:42] ---
    And so, time moves on, until the spring.
[01:46] ---
    The Promised Day was about to arrive.
[01:58] ---
    Is this a festival?
[01:59] ---
    It's the Spring Sheep Festival,
    a Resembool institution.
[02:04] ---
    Sorry to interrupt you on a day like this.
[02:05] ---
    We'd like to replenish our water.
[02:08] ---
    Sure thing. Take as much as you'd like.
[02:10] ---
    All right, unload the tanks.
[02:37] ---
    Looks like no one's home.
[02:39] ---
    We're here, miss.
[02:57] ---
    It smells like home.
[03:04] ---
    Oh, there's automail all over the place.
[03:07] ---
    Don't touch any of the pieces in progress, okay?
[03:21] ---
    Ooh, it's so dusty in here.
[03:39] ---
    What's wrong?!
[03:42] ---
    Edward Elric?!
[03:45] ---
    Intruders?!
[03:47] ---
    Ee-yow!
[03:50] ---
    What are you guys doing?
[03:52] ---
    Ling?!
[03:54] ---
    You guys are Kimblee's men!
[03:58] ---
    Huh? You guys are from Briggs.
[04:01] ---
    You've pursued us all the way here?
[04:04] ---
    Hold on, hold on, hold on, lower your guns!
[04:06] ---
    --Hey, Ed... what in the world is going on here?!
    --You lower yours first!
[04:10] ---
    --It's a really long story.
    --Where did you guys come from?!
[04:12] ---
    --And what are you doing in my room?
    --Is Kimblee with you?!
    --Kimblee's got nothing to do with us!
[04:15] ---
    --I like to look outside while I eat once in a while.
    --Hear us out!
    --You expect us to believe you?!
[04:18] ---
    Whatever, just put your guns down!
[04:20] ---
    Don't shout!
[04:22] ---
    Shut that dog up.
[04:26] ---
    This is a girl's bedroom! Get out!
[04:40] ---
    I was worried.
[04:42] ---
    Y-Yeah... I'm glad you're okay, too.
[04:46] ---
    Isn't Al with you?
[04:50] ---
    Ed! Al is at the train station,
    together with Mr. Miles!
[04:55] ---
    They're leaving before long!
[04:56] ---
    If you hurry, you might make it in time.
[05:04] ---
    What's wrong? Aren't you going?
[05:10] ---
    We're wanted men in Central.
[05:14] ---
    It wouldn't be good if anyone saw us.
[05:17] ---
    Yeah, but...
[05:30] ---
    The sheep festival, huh? That takes me back.
[05:36] ---
    We're just about ready to leave.
[05:38] ---
    Right.
[05:43] ---
    I sure hope the next time you come back here,
[05:45] ---
    you'll have your original body.
[05:49] ---
    Right.
[06:05] ---
    Winry?
[06:12] ---
    Welcome home.
[06:14] ---
    I'm back. Sorry to have worried you.
[06:20] ---
    I see we have some more foul characters about.
[06:23] ---
    We're terribly sorry for all the commotion.
[06:25] ---
    We are soldiers from Briggs.
[06:28] ---
    We've been assigned to escort Miss Winry.
[06:32] ---
    Ling, it's you, right?
[06:35] ---
    Huh? Are you one of this guy's friends?
[06:40] ---
    I'm Greed. Pleased to meet you.
[06:44] ---
    Huh?
[06:51] ---
    And so, these guys are now working for me.
[06:54] ---
    Why did you come here?
[06:56] ---
    To get ourselves ready.
    His automail needs maintenance.
[07:00] ---
    I want him in tip-top condition.
[07:02] ---
    Have a look at him later.
[07:04] ---
    You're the one who made his automail,
[07:07] ---
    so I can't do any of the fine tuning.
[07:10] ---
    Mm-hmm, okay.
[07:17] ---
    Is that right? Liore is
    getting back on its feet, huh?
[07:22] ---
    Good. That's been bothering me.
[07:28] ---
    So, how come Al is with Major Miles?
[07:32] ---
    The folks from Briggs are
    going to be doing something
[07:35] ---
    at some training ground in the east.
[07:37] ---
    Al thought he might be able to
    help out there, so he volunteered.
[07:42] ---
    I see.
[07:44] ---
    Ed, your father went to Central
    a little before we left.
[07:48] ---
    I hear he's in some slum named Kanama,
[07:51] ---
    so go see him, and get the full story from him.
[07:58] ---
    The Promised Day is almost here, right?
[08:04] ---
    I heard about it from Greed.
[08:07] ---
    The day is a chance for us to get back to normal,
[08:10] ---
    but it also could mean a
    huge tragedy for the country.
[08:17] ---
    Listen...
[08:19] ---
    What?
[08:21] ---
    Take Granny and Den, and run
    away to some foreign country.
[08:27] ---
    What do you mean, run away?!
[08:28] ---
    What good is having only
    those close to you get away?!
[08:30] ---
    --Ow-w-w-w...
    --Can't you do anything to stop the
    country from getting messed up?!
[08:34] ---
    I'm gonna stop it!
[08:35] ---
    I'm going to stop it, but there
    is that one chance in a million!
[08:38] ---
    Don't give me one in a million, or even a billion!
[08:41] ---
    Those guys are about to do
    something awful, right?
[08:44] ---
    So slam the door shut on it,
    and protect the country!
[08:47] ---
    And then, Ed, both you and Al come
    home with your original bodies!
[08:52] ---
    I'll do anything to make that happen!
[09:01] ---
    Sheesh, you make it sound so simple.
[09:03] ---
    What is this? It's not like you to get discouraged.
[09:07] ---
    --Hey, Ed!
    --Ah, the girl doesn't know when to shut up.
[09:12] ---
    Ed!
[09:22] ---
    Nice girl you have there.
[09:24] ---
    She wants to have it all.
[09:27] ---
    Nothing good comes of
    wanting something too badly.
[09:32] ---
    Look here, I wanted someone who
    was dead, and this is what I got.
[09:36] ---
    Are you sure?
[09:37] ---
    "I want to see someone who died,"
[09:40] ---
    "I want money," "I want women,"
[09:43] ---
    and "I want to defend the world,"
[09:46] ---
    are all things that the heart wants,
    or in other words, desires.
[09:51] ---
    If I had to say, greed is neither good nor bad.
[09:56] ---
    You humans get tripped up
    because you presume
[09:59] ---
    to assign value ratings to greed.
[10:10] ---
    You're leaving at this hour?
[10:12] ---
    We planned to leave today,
    even if we hadn't run into you.
[10:18] ---
    Thanks for servicing my automail.
[10:24] ---
    If you happen to see Hohenheim,
    give him the message from Trisha.
[10:29] ---
    Okay, okay.
[10:30] ---
    Ed, I...
[10:32] ---
    You make sure you keep yourself hidden.
[10:37] ---
    We're going to put an end to
    all of this on the Promised Day,
[10:40] ---
    and then come back home,
[10:42] ---
    so bake us some apple pie and wait for us.
[10:47] ---
    Mm-hmm...
[10:57] ---
    Aah, I put in a good day's work today.
[11:00] ---
    Then again, are you sure
    we should be doing this?
[11:04] ---
    The Promised Day is almost here.
[11:05] ---
    What else are we supposed to do?
    Mr. Marcoh and Scar haven't come yet.
[11:10] ---
    For Pete's sake, where are those two,
    and what are they doing?
[11:17] ---
    Doc!
[11:18] ---
    Oh, it's you guys!
[11:20] ---
    Don't "Oh, it's you guys" us!
[11:22] ---
    Where have you been
    traipsing around all this time?
[11:25] ---
    All right... Let's head off for Central.
[11:32] ---
    You know, it feels kind of funny, doesn't it?
[11:35] ---
    Imagine, us former soldiers
    working together with an Ishvalan.
[11:40] ---
    Yeah, yeah, for us, Amestris
    is the land we were born in.
[11:46] ---
    Our families are here.
[11:47] ---
    But now, Scar, who rebelled against this country,
[11:51] ---
    is now taking action to
    save this country. Think of it.
[11:55] ---
    Don't get me wrong. I'm not
    saving the country. I'm changing it.
[12:02] ---
    I'm acting to make this country,
[12:06] ---
    which rejected the Ishvalan people,
    acknowledge our presence.
[12:10] ---
    In order to change the world,
    you must first be changed yourself.
[12:16] ---
    That is how it is, Amestrisians.
[12:19] ---
    --Ishvalans?!
    --But how?
[12:22] ---
    We haven't just been "traipsing
    around" for all these months.
[12:28] ---
    These are friends, who share the same purpose.
[12:45] ---
    I look forward to this again this year, sir.
[12:49] ---
    Well, happily, our exercises are
    being held here this time around.
[12:53] ---
    Having joint exercises in
    the north is quite a pain.
[13:01] ---
    Everything is in place.
[13:04] ---
    We are all set up, as well.
[13:06] ---
    However, there is one small problem...
[13:11] ---
    Problem?
[13:15] ---
    Of all things, Bradley has come to watch us.
[13:22] ---
    The Promised Day is so close,
[13:24] ---
    so I was ready for them to send
    someone to watch us, but...
[13:31] ---
    Well, I guess we'll just have
    to do something about it.
[13:53] ---
    Not again.
[13:58] ---
    The intervals where I'm being pulled over there
[14:01] ---
    are gradually getting shorter.
[14:04] ---
    We have to hurry. If I don't
    get back to my body soon...
[14:20] ---
    I smell him!
[14:22] ---
    I smell him! That's the smell of
    the Fullmetal Alchemist's brother!
[14:28] ---
    You're running away?
[14:32] ---
    This is bad!
[14:33] ---
    I can't fight him very well in my shape!
[14:55] ---
    What is this?!
[15:02] ---
    Not now, of all times...!
[15:18] ---
    You're going to take it easy
    until the Promised Day,
[15:23] ---
    Alphonse Elric.
[15:44] ---
    Hello there, General.
[15:48] ---
    Hmph, I've got no tea to
    serve to the likes of you.
[15:55] ---
    I may be able to invite you out to dinner soon.
[15:59] ---
    You've decided to deliver on
    your promise from earlier?
[16:06] ---
    I must say, you have a large mansion.
[16:09] ---
    Just what you'd expect of the Armstrong family.
[16:12] ---
    You could fit a company--
    no, a whole battalion in there.
[16:19] ---
    If anything were to happen to me,
[16:22] ---
    I could let you have the entire mansion.
[16:25] ---
    It won't fit inside a casket, after all.
[16:29] ---
    You're not going to leave it to your brother?
[16:33] ---
    If it came down to giving it to you or him,
[16:35] ---
    I'd still rather give it to you,
    but only by a whisker.
[16:40] ---
    I'm honored.
[16:45] ---
    Belated though it may be,
[16:47] ---
    congratulations on becoming
    head of the Armstrong family.
[16:54] ---
    Hyacinths.
[17:00] ---
    Selim Bradley is a Homunculus.
[17:05] ---
    Do you know what hyacinths represent
    in the language of flowers?
[17:11] ---
    No.
[17:13] ---
    Ladylike appeal.
[17:17] ---
    You mind your own business!
[17:22] ---
    Well then, I must be going, sir.
[17:26] ---
    Hmph, little punk...!
[17:37] ---
    "The Day Before the Promised Day"
[17:50] ---
    This is so stifling. What do you say
    we avail ourselves of the commotion,
[17:53] ---
    and blow the building Bradley
    is in away with our cannons?
[17:57] ---
    Sir, please don't do that.
[17:58] ---
    Major Miles...
[18:02] ---
    You still can't figure out
    where Alphonse Elric is?
[18:05] ---
    No, sir. The search is still ongoing,
[18:08] ---
    but you don't think the other
    side caught him, do you?
[18:14] ---
    And here, the Promised Day is tomorrow, too.
[18:18] ---
    Your Excellency...
[18:21] ---
    General Hakuro.
[18:23] ---
    Excellency, there is something
    I would like to inform you about
[18:26] ---
    concerning General Grumman.
[18:27] ---
    He's going to use the Eastern
    forces to stage a coup d'état?
[18:30] ---
    If so, it's what I would expect of him.
[18:33] ---
    No sir, the north and east
    joint exercises are a decoy.
[18:38] ---
    Excellency, with Central under lighter guard
[18:40] ---
    while you are here in the east,
[18:42] ---
    the Ishvalan remnants will
    carry out terrorist acts there.
[18:46] ---
    Then General Grumman plans to invade Central,
[18:48] ---
    under the excuse of putting down the terrorists,
[18:51] ---
    and working in concert with Colonel Mustang,
[18:53] ---
    he will take advantage of the confusion,
[18:55] ---
    and take control of the Central Command Center.
[19:07] ---
    Just as General Hakuro's intelligence suggests,
[19:09] ---
    for the last few days,
    Ishvalans have been moving
[19:12] ---
    into the areas around Central.
[19:24] ---
    I am returning to Central. You take over here.
[19:28] ---
    Yes, sir.
[19:35] ---
    That miserable Mustang! How outrageous!
[19:38] ---
    And here, after we've defanged him
[19:41] ---
    by stripping him of any usable pawns, too!
[19:54] ---
    We've stopped.
[19:56] ---
    What's going on?
[20:00] ---
    --Sheep.
    --And us, in a hurry.
[20:11] ---
    Hey, only the engine has started moving.
[20:14] ---
    What?!
[20:15] ---
    What's going on? Hey, stop them!
[20:36] ---
    We've cleared off the sheep from the tracks.
[20:39] ---
    We're headed to Central, as planned.
[20:42] ---
    Let's go! The colonel is waiting for us!
[20:46] ---
    Damn it!
[20:50] ---
    They played you like a fiddle, General Hakuro.
[20:56] ---
    The train that His Excellency
    was in has been blown up!
[21:14] ---
    Tomorrow, everything goes into motion.
    Let's do what we have to,
[21:19] ---
    Lieutenant Breda, Sergeant Fuery.
[21:21] ---
    Knock it off with that "Lieutenant" business.
[21:24] ---
    Right now, I'm just an ordinary deserter.
[21:26] ---
    Aw, the way ahead is as murky as can be.
[21:30] ---
    Once this is all over,
[21:32] ---
    we'll get the colonel to answer for us.

[23:11] ---
    Imagine, King Bradley, dead...!
[23:13] ---
    We still don't know that it's true!
[23:16] ---
    What's going on with the search?!
[23:18] ---
    The troops haven't reached the site yet!
[23:19] ---
    --As soon as their head is gone, they're like this.
    --Get them moving!
    --Don't yell at me! Besides, that's not my job!
[23:23] ---
    --What a squawking rabble.
    --Yeah, but...
[23:24] ---
    Is this any time to talk like that?!
[23:27] ---
    Our commander-in-chief is missing!
[23:29] ---
    --We know that!
    --This could be my chance to act.
[23:36] ---
    Oh...
[23:38] ---
    It is an honor to have you come here.
[23:42] ---
    Calm down, everyone.
[23:50] ---
    I am still here, in Central.
[23:58] ---
    Is it a demon, a beast,
    a monster, cloaked in darkness?

[24:04] ---
    A blast of black wind saves
    the young men, caught in a crisis.

[24:11] ---
    Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
    Fullmetal Alchemist,

[24:15] ---
    Episode 47: "Emissary of Darkness."
[24:20] ---
    Strike a light!
[24:22] ---
    Into the heart of man. Deep into the darkness.
