Summary
Edward froze. Slipping his head out from Hohenheim's grasp, he stared into the sun, eyes adjusting to the figure on the balcony. It had Hohenheim's face. And as his father recoiled, asking if that man was the homunculus in the flask, all he could see was that Al's murderer bore the appearance of the only family he had left.
"What have you done?"
"You gave me blood. In return, I gave you knowledge and freedom; now I've given you a body that will live forever."
OR, Edward is born in 1488, and when Father attempts to immortalize Van Hohenheim, Edward is caught up in the circle. Newly immortal, the only family he has left is a man he's grown to resent and his brother's soul, trapped within his chest. Over the course of four hundred years, Edward fights to separate the souls in the stone, because there isn't a world where he won't give up everything for Alphonse.

Summary
“Tell me,” Ling began, voice deadly serious. His gaze was piercing, as though looking into Edward’s very soul. “How many people do you have inside of you?”
--------
Edward was born earlier, to a much younger Hohenheim. Even with a much different start to life, one thing still holds true: he loves Alphonse more than anything, even if his beloved brother does stupid things like run off and join the military at age 11.

Summary
For an articulate man, Roy Mustang suddenly struggled to find the correct words.
Every variation the Colonel concocted within his head sounded flimsy, harsh, or downright wrong. Unsettled and sick, the silence stretched between them for a handful of heart-clenching beats as suspicious golden eyes narrowed, continuing to sear into Roy’s soul. Realization reared its ugly head and delved a hand right into his chest, poisonous claws digging deep as it whispered odious remarks. He stared at the boy before him, feeling as if he was seeing him for the first time, an entire week’s worth of denial crumbling away.
This couldn’t be happening, but it was.
It was happening and he had been willfully blind to it like a pathetic coward. He’d chalked the flush of fever as something as simple as a cold. The same applied to the presumption of mood swings linked to age. Even the odd habits Roy had brushed off as quirks or stress...
Never once did Roy think something more malicious had been at play, until now.
"Edward… I don’t think you are very well right now.’’
[Or, the one where Edward takes a little splash and everyone suffers]

Summary
"But as he kicks a door in and looks down at the family of three huddled in the corner of this sandstone house, white hair and pleading red eyes register in his head as target. And Alphonse Elric lives another moment for every target he kills.
Fullmetal pops the safety off his handgun and fires three times-
BANGBANGBANG
-right between those crimson eyes.
He turns and stalks back out into the street, calvary skirt snapping around his knees as he holsters his pistol and retransmutes his automail blade to slice through the haphazard Ishvalan group trying to brandish muskets at his team.
(Little al-che-mist, something cooes, and he ignores it as arterial spray arcs through the dry air. He has his orders.)"
--
Or; Everything happens a bit earlier, and the Fullmetal Alchemist doesn't have his brother.
