When they start everything out, ed and al are over at winry's house making her a birthday present. when they start the alchemy, she starts to cry and den, her puppy starts to bark, they run over to her and that's where the story begins. when they are going home, they're talking to their mother, trisha elric, and they ask her if she's mad at them for doing alchemy. she tells them she's very proud of them. later that year, ed and al run up to her with little horse like things and show her them. al begins to tell her that his isn't nearly as good as ed's, and she says their both beautiful. when they then go over to winry's house, they are greeted to her and her grandmother, pinako crying. she then tells them that her parents are dead. ed and al walk home with sad looks on their faces as they see their mother walking into the house with a basket full of vegetables. they run into her arms and start to cry. yet another year later they could be found running to their house with baskets full of vegetables for their mother. ed opens the door to find their mother lying on the floor barely breathing. they run to her side crying out 'mom'. after she dies, the boys are devistated, and they attempt to bring her back, but the alchemy fails and takes ed's right leg, and al's entire body. ed cuts off his own arm to save his younger brother, he uses it in a transmutation to attatch his younger brothers soul to the suit of armour in the corner of their fathers work room. the seal that keeps al to the armour is made with ed's very own blood. (watch later episodes to find out more) al carries his brother over to winrys house, and says to them that ed will bleed to death if they don't help him soon. when ed tells pinako that he wants auto mail, she tells him that he's crazy, he also tells her that he wants to join the military, and she tells him that the military is brutal and makes you do things and kill people, but ed still protestes. while winry attatches the auto mail, ed refues to cry, because the pain is nothing compared to what his brother had to go through. when the finally get on their way to central city, before they left, they burnt down their house so that none of the memories of their mother would stay with them...
