1. Beckoned now by the snow-white backdrop,
Copy !req
2. I go into a yet unseen world
Copy !req
3. Lost as I traveled
Copy !req
4. under a gray sky,
Copy !req
5. with a different map each day,
so many dreams ran together
Copy !req
6. I wonder if someday,
even with my modest stride,
Copy !req
7. I'll be able to get beyond those clouds
Copy !req
8. Falling raindrops provide
a persistent diffuse reflection
Copy !req
9. as though able to see into my heart,
wounded for acting tough
Copy !req
10. Beams of light crisscross
Copy !req
11. and shoot on forever without
announcing where they're headed
Copy !req
12. Faint afterimages burn into my eyes
Copy !req
13. Wherever I am under this sky,
Copy !req
14. I should still arrive at a yet unseen world
Copy !req
15. Hey, is anyone there?!
Copy !req
16. Al! Answer me!
Copy !req
17. Where is this place?!
Copy !req
18. Damn.
Copy !req
19. Ling, you dumb prince!
Copy !req
20. Dumb? What do you mean, dumb?
Copy !req
21. Ling?
Copy !req
22. What a thing to call the prince of a nation!
Copy !req
23. You're all right?
Copy !req
24. You're...
Copy !req
25. What?
Copy !req
26. You're not Envy, turned into him, right?
Copy !req
27. Now, look...
Copy !req
28. If you want, I can recite the
entire hotel room service menu!
Copy !req
29. All right, it's really you.
Copy !req
30. What about you?
You're not a fake, are you? You bean...
Copy !req
31. Who're you calling a bean-sized runt?!
Copy !req
32. All right, it's really you.
Copy !req
33. I have to ask, where is this place?
Copy !req
34. I'm pretty sure we were swallowed
whole by Gluttony back there.
Copy !req
35. There's no way the inside of
his belly could be as big as this.
Copy !req
36. Yeah, but...
Copy !req
37. ...look.
Copy !req
38. That's the run-down house we were just in.
Copy !req
39. What's more, over here is...
Copy !req
40. The lieutenant's car?
Copy !req
41. The fires all around are probably
the colonel's, aren't they?
Copy !req
42. Yeah.
Copy !req
43. Which means, we really are
inside Gluttony's belly?
Copy !req
44. I dunno. But it is pretty clear
that this isn't a good place.
Copy !req
45. Let me borrow this.
Copy !req
46. What's wrong?
Copy !req
47. Ling, look at this.
Copy !req
48. Is that Al's?!
Copy !req
49. If it's just his hand, that means
that Al wasn't swallowed.
Copy !req
50. Thank goodness.
Copy !req
51. I'll bet Al's worried, though.
He doesn't know where we are, either.
Copy !req
52. Awaken conveniently, my telepathic powers!
Copy !req
53. Elric Telepathy!
Copy !req
54. - Come in, my brother!
- You can just do that by yourself.
Copy !req
55. There are all sorts of buildings
and skeletons scattered around.
Copy !req
56. The time periods are all mixed up, though.
Copy !req
57. Is there even a way out
of here in the first place?
Copy !req
58. I don't know. If there isn't, I'll make us one.
Copy !req
59. Make us one? Where?
Copy !req
60. All right, let's have the torch.
Copy !req
61. I get it.
Copy !req
62. Let's see...
Copy !req
63. I didn't hear it hit bottom.
Copy !req
64. The wall! Let's find a wall!
Copy !req
65. Yeah! However big this space may be,
Copy !req
66. if we keep going straight,
we'll reach the edge of it!
Copy !req
67. We should then find an exit!
Copy !req
68. I didn't find her.
Copy !req
69. Where could Shao May have gone?
Copy !req
70. Are you sure she wasn't eaten
by a stray dog, or something?
Copy !req
71. Stray?
Copy !req
72. Sorry, I was kidding!
Copy !req
73. She...
Copy !req
74. Shao May is a giant bearcat,
Copy !req
75. who has been sick from birth,
and never grew very big.
Copy !req
76. I took her in when her mother abandoned her.
Copy !req
77. Ever since, we've grown up
together, like sisters.
Copy !req
78. My clan, the Chang clan, is the
lowest-ranked clan in all of Xing,
Copy !req
79. and we wield next to no power.
Copy !req
80. Maybe that's why...
Copy !req
81. Maybe those whose positions
are weak are drawn to each other.
Copy !req
82. Mm-hmm, maybe at first, it was out of sympathy.
Copy !req
83. But we've lived together like family,
Copy !req
84. and gone through hardships together...
Copy !req
85. and she has become an
indispensable part of my life.
Copy !req
86. There have been many things that I've
been able to endure because of her.
Copy !req
87. Crossing the desert is something
that I only got through because of her.
Copy !req
88. Yeah, but there was no need for
you to cross it in the first place.
Copy !req
89. Why, for the sake of something
as ridiculous as immortality,
Copy !req
90. would you intentionally...
Copy !req
91. If I don't return with the
way to gain immortality,
Copy !req
92. present it to His Highness
the Emperor, and gain his trust,
Copy !req
93. our clan will continue on until it perishes.
Copy !req
94. That's why I came to this country...
Copy !req
95. ...with her...
Copy !req
96. - Shao May!
- Ah, don't cry anymore! I'm begging you!
Copy !req
97. Sir?
Copy !req
98. There's still some time left
before the sun comes up.
Copy !req
99. There will be fewer military police now.
Copy !req
100. You're going to help me look for her?
Copy !req
101. He's a good person.
Copy !req
102. His people were wiped out
in the civil war earlier.
Copy !req
103. That's why...
Copy !req
104. ...maybe he feels some kinship
for the survival of your minor clan.
Copy !req
105. Well?! Aren't we going to go look?!
Copy !req
106. Yes, we're going!
Copy !req
107. It sure is tiring...
when our footing is like this.
Copy !req
108. Yeah. What's worse,
after all this, there's no exit.
Copy !req
109. I'm starving.
Copy !req
110. Once we get out,
Copy !req
111. I'll feed you as much as you like.
Copy !req
112. You can eat as much as you like,
and sleep as much as you like.
Copy !req
113. Ling?
Copy !req
114. l-I've had it.
Copy !req
115. Hey, now, throwing in the towel?
Copy !req
116. What a wuss.
Copy !req
117. You're going to collapse here, too?
Copy !req
118. Get up! Walk!
Copy !req
119. Move forward! Come on!
Copy !req
120. Go on.
Copy !req
121. You spineless wimp!
Copy !req
122. I'm going!
Copy !req
123. I'm not going to let myself croak
someplace like this, after all!
Copy !req
124. I really am going to go, all by myself!
Copy !req
125. I really, really am!
Copy !req
126. I thought you were going.
Copy !req
127. I'm not going to let us both go down!
Copy !req
128. You've got people waiting
for you, too, don't you?
Copy !req
129. And if you've got strength enough to talk...
Copy !req
130. If only... we had something to eat...
Copy !req
131. You know something, Ling?
Copy !req
132. Leather goods are edible.
Copy !req
133. Just about there.
Copy !req
134. Here.
Copy !req
135. There's no... athlete's foot, right?
Copy !req
136. Does it look like there's any, you bonehead?!
Copy !req
137. Whew, I'm full.
Copy !req
138. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
139. For what?
Copy !req
140. This is all because you were protecting me.
Copy !req
141. It's nothing. Compared to the
training I went through as a kid,
Copy !req
142. this is no big deal.
Copy !req
143. It sucks that we don't know
where this place is, though.
Copy !req
144. But we're still alive and kicking,
so we can look for a way out.
Copy !req
145. You sure are positive.
Copy !req
146. I'm just stubborn about staying alive.
Copy !req
147. If I give up even a little bit,
Copy !req
148. I get Al's iron fists and
angry howls flying at me.
Copy !req
149. What is it?
Copy !req
150. Something's coming.
Copy !req
151. Is that?
Copy !req
152. Oh my, it's you guys, is it?
Copy !req
153. It's Envy, all right.
Copy !req
154. Tell me the way out of here!
Copy !req
155. That's pretty ugly of you, Edward Elric!
Copy !req
156. Shut up! A man will do anything to survive!
Copy !req
157. - For shame! For shame!
- Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!
- Unfortunately...
Copy !req
158. ...there is no way out.
Copy !req
159. You've really gone and done it now.
Copy !req
160. You even got me, Envy,
dragged into this, as well.
Copy !req
161. Where is this place?
Are we really inside Gluttony's belly?
Copy !req
162. We're both inside his belly,
and not inside his belly.
Copy !req
163. Fullmetal pips... er, Alchemist,
Copy !req
164. you've realized what this place is, haven't you?
Copy !req
165. Now that you mention it,
the moment that Gluttony swallowed us...
Copy !req
166. I've felt that sensation before somewhere.
Copy !req
167. You remember it, right?
You experienced it in the past, after all.
Copy !req
168. The Doorway of Truth!
Copy !req
169. B...
Copy !req
170. But, it wasn't like this there!
Copy !req
171. It was an all-white space, with a doorway.
Copy !req
172. Yeah? So that's what
the real thing is like, huh?
Copy !req
173. The real thing?
Copy !req
174. Gluttony is a failed attempt by our Father
Copy !req
175. to create a Doorway of Truth.
Copy !req
176. He's... what?
Copy !req
177. But Father couldn't create one,
not even with his power.
Copy !req
178. This is a defective Doorway of Truth.
Copy !req
179. I guess you could call this the area
between reality and truth.
Copy !req
180. Between?!
Copy !req
181. There are no exits, nor any ways out.
Copy !req
182. All we can do is use up our strength
and wait for our lives to end.
Copy !req
183. Guys,
Copy !req
184. all we can do is wait around in here to die!
Copy !req
185. Oh, man...
Copy !req
186. I'll be damned if that's true!
Copy !req
187. Don't go telling us crap like that, Envy!
Copy !req
188. Hey!
Copy !req
189. There isn't any exit?
Copy !req
190. We're going to die here?
Copy !req
191. Hey... Hey! Hold on! If I die...
Copy !req
192. What's Al going to do?
Copy !req
193. I promised him! We're going to
get back to normal together!
Copy !req
194. Damn it!
Copy !req
195. Doorways and creating things aside,
just who is this Father?
Copy !req
196. Is it Fuhrer Bradley?
Copy !req
197. Bradley? Ha! No, he's just a Homunculus.
Copy !req
198. I knew it.
Copy !req
199. The 5th Laboratory...
Copy !req
200. Human lives used to make...
Copy !req
201. ...Philosopher's Stones...
Copy !req
202. Homunculi...
Copy !req
203. If the Fuhrer is one, too, then are
you guys behind the Ishval War?
Copy !req
204. Ishval?
Copy !req
205. I've never had a job more
delightful than that one.
Copy !req
206. Do you know what the trigger
was that started the uprising?
Copy !req
207. As I recall, a military officer
Copy !req
208. accidentally killed an Ishvalan child.
Copy !req
209. Yes.
Copy !req
210. And I, Envy, am the very
person who shot that child.
Copy !req
211. Um...
Copy !req
212. I heard from Mr. Yoki about
what happened to Ishval.
Copy !req
213. That felt so good.
Copy !req
214. The civil war flared up right before my eyes,
Copy !req
215. all over one bullet.
Copy !req
216. Man, that was a real thrill.
Copy !req
217. Ah, and incidentally,
Copy !req
218. the officer that I, Envy, turned myself into
Copy !req
219. was a moderate, who opposed
the military's intervention in Ishval.
Copy !req
220. And the guy...
Copy !req
221. ...he couldn't even account for himself,
and was court-martialed!
Copy !req
222. You humans really are
easily manipulated creatures!
Copy !req
223. So you're the one who shot that innocent child?
Copy !req
224. Who ruined our home,
and drove out the Ishvalans?
Copy !req
225. The one who made Scar
so hell-bent for vengeance?
Copy !req
226. The reason...
Copy !req
227. ...why Winry's parents were taken from her?
Copy !req
228. Why, you!!
Copy !req
229. What?
Copy !req
230. He didn't even flinch.
Copy !req
231. You wanna fight, you punks?!
Copy !req
232. Ed, get back!
Copy !req
233. We're all going to die here anyway.
Copy !req
234. Let me show you something
neat before you pass on.
Copy !req
235. Did you see his footprints when
we were fighting in the forest?
Copy !req
236. No.
Copy !req
237. You mean...
Copy !req
238. He's unusually heavy for his size.
Copy !req
239. His true body is quite...
Copy !req
240. Damn.
Copy !req
241. What is this?!
Copy !req
242. How is he a Homunculus, a man-made "person"?!
Copy !req
243. What...
Copy !req
244. ...do I do?
Copy !req
245. I don't know.
Copy !req
246. What do I do?
Copy !req
247. Father will be mad at me.
Copy !req
248. Father? You have a dad?
Copy !req
249. Yes.
Copy !req
250. The person who made the Homunculi?
Copy !req
251. Yes, he made us.
Copy !req
252. Where does the mass he swallows go?
Is it some kind of trick?
Copy !req
253. Think! Think!
Copy !req
254. We promised each other we'd
get back to normal together.
Copy !req
255. What good will it do to give up?
Copy !req
256. Gluttony!
Copy !req
257. Take me with you!
Take me to where your father is!
Copy !req
258. Okay.
Copy !req
259. You are a sacrifice, after all.
Copy !req
260. Ah, right! I'm a sacrifice.
Copy !req
261. What does that mean, "sacrifice"?
Copy !req
262. As for that matter,
Copy !req
263. the only ones that have
been confirmed at present...
Copy !req
264. ...are the two Elric brothers.
Copy !req
265. What about Dr. Marcoh? Isn't it about time...
Copy !req
266. There's also Kimblee.
Copy !req
267. He doesn't have the nerve
it takes to open the doorway.
Copy !req
268. Come to think of it, what about Mustang,
Copy !req
269. the other sacrifice candidate?
Copy !req
270. The Fuhrer said he would like
to have a nice long talk with him.
Copy !req
271. Why are you keeping me alive?
Copy !req
272. In order to allow you to
understand your position.
Copy !req
273. How long has the military
been bowing to the Homunculi?
Copy !req
274. This has all been set up
since the birth of this nation.
Copy !req
275. So you've been watching us struggle
Copy !req
276. and snickering to yourselves for all this time?
Copy !req
277. Your hands that were trembling
at General Hughes' funeral...
Copy !req
278. Did you fake that, too?
Copy !req
279. Everyone makes too great a fuss
over the death of one soldier.
Copy !req
280. He must have at least known
that there was a possibility
Copy !req
281. that his uniform was what he would be buried in.
Copy !req
282. General Hughes' child...
Copy !req
283. Could there be anything more
noisy in the middle of a funeral?
Copy !req
284. She truly did grate on my nerves.
Copy !req
285. I thought you had a child, too!
How can you say that?
Copy !req
286. You mean Selim?
Copy !req
287. He's a very good boy.
Copy !req
288. What if he were to find out
Copy !req
289. that the father he looks up to is a Homunculus?
Copy !req
290. Is that a threat?
Copy !req
291. It won't work.
Copy !req
292. He will never be a way to get to me.
Copy !req
293. But your case is different.
Copy !req
294. She can be used to get to you.
Copy !req
295. Lieutenant Hawkeye!
Copy !req
296. What is it?
Copy !req
297. Someone from the
Personnel Bureau came by earlier.
Copy !req
298. They informed me
Copy !req
299. that I was being assigned to duty
at the Southern Command Center.
Copy !req
300. What?!
Copy !req
301. And it's not just me, either.
Copy !req
302. Lieutenant Breda is going to
the Western Command Center,
Copy !req
303. and Warrant Officer Falman
has apparently been transferred
Copy !req
304. to the Northern Command Center.
Copy !req
305. Lieutenant Hawkeye?
Copy !req
306. Yes, sir.
Copy !req
307. I'm Yakovlev, from the Personnel Bureau.
Copy !req
308. Personnel Bureau?
Copy !req
309. And I'm Storche, assistant to the Fuhrer.
Copy !req
310. Please take this.
Copy !req
311. Are these transfer orders?
Copy !req
312. That's correct.
Copy !req
313. If I may look at them...
Copy !req
314. What's this?!
Copy !req
315. What kind of implausible assignment is this?!
Copy !req
316. Where are you being whisked away to?
Copy !req
317. "Starting tomorrow,
First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye
Copy !req
318. is assigned to the Central Command Center...
Copy !req
319. ...as an assistant to the Fuhrer."
Copy !req
320. And that's that,
Copy !req
321. Colonel Roy Mustang.
Copy !req
322. - Let us out!
- The pain!
Copy !req
323. Ah, delightful, delightful...
Copy !req
324. Damn, there's nothing delightful about this.
Copy !req
325. Yeah, no doubt.
Copy !req
326. Ling!
Copy !req
327. Ed!
Copy !req
328. Can you make a weapon?
Copy !req
329. Leave it to me!
Copy !req
330. With this sea of blood,
Copy !req
331. there's no shortage of iron.
Copy !req
332. You've got lousy taste.
Copy !req
333. What part? It's pretty slick, isn't it?
Copy !req
334. Can we take him?
Copy !req
335. I'm not sure. I mean,
what with the way he's built.
Copy !req
336. What's worse, he broke two
or three ribs in that last attack.
Copy !req
337. I'm in pretty similar shape.
Copy !req
338. Nonetheless, we have to
pump this guy up full of hurt!
Copy !req
339. Gluttony, are you sure this is the right way?
Copy !req
340. Mm-hmm.
Copy !req
341. But this way is...
Copy !req
342. This is...
Copy !req
343. Your Father is in Central?!
Copy !req
344. Let it all out, Let it all out
Copy !req
345. We don't have to act so brave
Copy !req
346. The graffiti flower that someone
Copy !req
347. was drawing on the wall trembles
Copy !req
348. Nobody knows their own uniqueness
Copy !req
349. Along the long, long road, there will be
days where we lose things, find things,
Copy !req
350. become suddenly lonesome,
and break down crying
Copy !req
351. Let's turn the tears and pain into stars
Copy !req
352. Let's light the lights that shine on tomorrow
Copy !req
353. Holding up our little hands to them,
let's make stardust together
Copy !req
354. and a brightly shining eternity...
Copy !req
355. The day may come when we say goodbye
Copy !req
356. The seasons will still make their rounds
Copy !req
357. Though I may wander a little, I'll still walk
Copy !req
358. Still walk with you
Copy !req
359. Let's make sure that much doesn't change
Copy !req
360. Is the soul that works behind the
scenes a signpost to the future?
Copy !req
361. Young man, you must fight,
Copy !req
362. if you are to bump into the truth,
Copy !req
363. and learn the depths of the darkness.
Copy !req
364. Next time on Hagane no Renkinjutsushi:
Fullmetal Alchemist,
Copy !req
365. Episode 26: "Reunion."
Copy !req
366. I will not say goodbye,
Copy !req
367. because I believe the day
will come when we meet again.
Copy !req
