Disclaimer- I don't own FMA. Wish I did, but alas...
Envy couldn't believe that he was dead, but he was, and there was nothing he could do about it now.
The first thing he noticed was that wherever he was, was dark, filled with a crushing silence, unbearable pressure crushing in on his chest; the pain, oh how he wished for it to just end...but it did not, it continued to feel as if he was still being burned by Mustang's flames, even if in the end, it was he himself that had caused his own demise.
Suddenly, or maybe not so suddenly, as time was strange here, a narrow line of light appeared, slowly becoming wider, as if a set of doors were opening. A sense of panic started to settle in, he knew that whatever was on the other side of the assumed doorway, wasn't something that he wanted to meet.
Inevitable. That's what it was. It was inevitable indeed that he would reach the light, just as it had been inevitable that he was to die. Nearly seemed like justice, with how it was the friends of one of the humans that he had killed, and colleague of so many others, that had been the cause of his death, even if the humans did not strike the final blow against him, they were the reason he had died.
How he wished that he hadn't done the things that he had. But Father had made him do it. He in fact envied Greed, both of them, for having the strength and willpower to be able to escape out from under that man-no-monster's first.
It was too late now, no time for him to right his past wrongs, no time to switch sides, and no time to ask to be forgiven. Indeed, it appeared to him, that he was out of time, had been out of time for some time really.
Yet he still thought on this, on how every time that he had tried or thought of leaving, something would take over, forcing him to complete whatever task had been assigned to him, making it just a little bit harder to be able to leave each time, slowly locking him into the back of his mind.
He was too late to try getting away from Father, for that monster to let him leave. So he accepted the inevitable.
And the inevitable came.
Yo, 3vil here, this could or could not be a one-shot, but I'm not gonna post a story off this unless people want me to.

Edit-11/7/15- Fixed some inconsistencies and such, it started bugging me after I recently re-read both my work and FMA.
