Precious

Time was a completely irrelevant concept to Envy, for someone who had been living as long as he had, close to 900 years, and for someone who literally had all the time in the world as he couldn't really die. Living was boring. Not unless one had fun things to do, like playing cat and mouse or cops and robbers. Envy had to laugh at that, what he did didn't really involve children's games. He had toys really, human toys. To occupy his time he would play with humans, maybe impersonating them and then acting like a complete fool and ruining their reputation, or sleeping with a co-worker. It was really a lot of fun. And besides...what else would he do?

After Edward Elric had killed Dante, Envy had pretty much been free to do whatever, after he convinced Ed he didn't really care about the stone and Dante's ideals, he had only been following her because he needed something to do. Ed had let him live but only after he made Envy promise that he wouldn't kill anyone for fun anymore. Envy agreed reluctantly. And for some reason 500 years later, after Ed's death, he had never killed a person for fun yet, he had had to kill a few out of self preservation, but Ed hadn't said no killing period so it was fine. Envy often wondered why he had actually listened to the pipsqueak. But he never came up with an answer.

Right now he was stalking a very pretty girl with black hair and dark green eyes, she was ghostly pale and very attractive. Envy was in his newly acquired look, it wasn't that different from his favorite but since his favorite tended to get him stares he had refrained from using it and made a new one. This one had bright green eyes and still had long spiky hair only it was black and tied back, he didn't want to admit it was slightly reminiscent of Ed, but moving on, he wore black pants and a simple black button up shit untucked and the cuffs were loose. He had grown very fond of the look after a couple of centuries and decided to stick to it, and plus girls just flocked to him and so did guys for that matter. He was following this particular girl because she had rejected him and he wasn't going to let that happen, he smirked as he saw her turn towards a nightclub and go in without a problem, Envy used his magical skills of manipulation, in other words he turned into a drop dead gorgeous woman to get it. He changed back as he stepped into the dimly lit club, the dance floor was fairly packed the bar also had several patrons and Envy found his mark making her way through the crowd and stopping at the bar. He quickly made his way over to her.

"Let me pay for your drinks," he said right in her ear, she looked over her shoulder with a raised eyebrow before rolling her eyes.

"Oh it's you again," she said seeming uninterested. Envy gave a pout then leaned on the bar and looked towards her.

"Oh come on don't be like that, just one drink?" he asked fully intending for there to be more than one. The woman turned to him and Envy got a good look at her cleavage he hummed in appreciation.

"I don't want a drink from you, now excuse me," she gave a nod to the bartender then left the bar. Envy gave a grown and let his head hit the bar.

"No luck tonight pal?" the bartender chuckled. And Envy gave a sigh then looked up at the guy, he was reasonable looking brown hair sparkling blue eyes. Envy would take him maybe if he couldn't get anything else.

"No luck all week actually," Envy said sadly looking at the bartender pathetically, hoping to at least to make him sympathetic. The Bartender gave him a calculating look before cracking up.

"Sorry but I'm straight," he said between laughs and Envy pouted.

"Daaaamn," he whined. And the man laughed again then prepared and handed him a drink.

"Here on me, you amuse me," he grinned and Envy couldn't help but grin back this guy wasn't so bad, he'd be better if Envy could get his pants off but otherwise not so bad. Envy smiled in thanks for the drink. He took a sip and deemed it alright. He'd had better.

"Well then...do you think you could tell me about Miss Sexy-legs?" Envy asked, and the guy laughed again.

"Oh I'd love to see her face if she ever heard you call her that," He grinned, then had to fill a few orders before coming back.

"Her name is Verity, and I wouldn't push her if I was you, she can be very scary," He warned and Envy cocked his head to the side.

"How so?" he asked curious. And the guy smirked.

"Let's just say she's a real...heart breaker," he said and Envy felt there was a deeper meaning to it, Envy smirked.

"Well that just makes me want her more, you know where I can find her?" he asked and the guy looked contemplative for a minute before grinning.

"I wouldn't tell you to save your life, but since you seem like you might actually enjoy it..." he smirked then pointed to a door by the booths near the edge of the dance floor. "She should be through there, but be careful if the boss is here he won't appreciate the extra company." he said, and Envy felt like the warning was meant to taunt him. To make him go, but he could care less as long as he ended up getting laid.

He flounced through the door and found a hall with back offices, he walked down the hall frowning a little until he came to a door that read "Storage" and heard people talking in quiet voices behind it. He pressed his ear to it and found he couldn't make out the words but he distinctly heard a woman's voice. He grinned as he slipped the door open without a sound and slipped in, he felt the cool temperature but couldn't be bothered by it. It was very poorly lit but he could see fine as he made his way towards the voices. Now he was slightly curious, what were people doing in here? He found them standing in the back. There was Verity, looking exceptionally good in her black dress that showed plenty of cleavage. And there was another man standing in the shadow his long hair tied back, his stance strangely frigid.

"Why do I have to wait here?" Verity snapped at the man, who spoke in the same snappish tone.

"Because that's what the Boss told me to have you do," he said to her and she huffed crossing her arms, and turning her face away childishly, Envy chuckled. She was funny. She seemed to have heard him and her head snapped in his direction.

"Who's there?" she demanded. And Envy walked forward a bit putting on a confused facade.

"Well this isn't the bathroom," he grinned and she made a face at him, before she sat on a wooden box.

"Get lost, I already told you I'm not interested," she sighed in irritation. And Envy leaned on the stacked boxes next to him.

"Yeah...but I need a better reason than that." Envy grinned. And she gave another irritated sigh before glaring at him.

"Just get out alright, unless you want to die, I'm this close to tearing your throat out," she growled, and Envy purred.

"Damn, I think you just turned me on," and he laughed at the disgusted look she gave him.

"I'm sorry friend but Verity doesn't go for men, so you'll just have to give up," a voice said from behind him, and Envy felt himself shiver. Why was that voice so familiar? And how the hell had they gotten so close without him noticing? Envy turned around and swore.

"Fuck. Edward?" he gasped as his eyes widened and took in the sight of the person he thought he'd never see again. Those same golden eyes that same blond hair, the same body structure and stature. Except he was a bit different. His eyes were a colder and his normally tan skin was much paler, his hair was tied back at the nape of his neck instead of in a braid. And he gave no recognition of Envy when he saw him. Envy stepped back still slightly in shock then shook his head. No Ed was dead this person wasn't him.

"Uh...s-sorry, I...uh thought you were someone I used to know, never mind" Envy mumbled and looked down, he couldn't stand looking in those cold eyes, not when he was so used to seeing other emotions in them.

"My name is Edward, but how do you know? We have never met," Envy looked up at him; oh that cockiness would never leave him would it? Envy narrowed his eyes at the Edward look alike.

"Never mind I said, it's not a big deal people mistake people for others all the time," Envy shrugged and faked a yawn then started towards the door. "Now if you'll excuse me, it's past my bedtime," he said sarcastically as he started walking but an arm shot out and stopped him.

"You will answer my question first, then perhaps you will have the privilege of leaving," The Edward wannabe said and Envy scowled, he didn't like this guy, the cold demeanor was wrong coming from Ed's body, and that way of speaking, it was all wrong. Where were the swear words? Where was that aura of stubbornness and cockiness? Where was the determination? Where was Ed? No, no, Ed was dead, Envy had heard about it on the grape vine that Edward Elric had died shortly after his brother's murder. And that was the end of it, Envy had been a little upset that he wouldn't be able to bug the chibi anymore, but he couldn't be bothered by one little human. Envy snarled at the blond.

"Get out of my way Shorty," he growled but the last word was barely out of his mouth before he was pinned to the crates behind him. Two strong arms holding him up and a snarling face glaring at him.

"Do not call me short stranger, it will be the last thing you will ever do," he snarled, and Envy just stared at him. Was this guy really just an imitation? Or was it really Ed reincarnated? Envy didn't think it was either, he knew there was something more, but then he realized he was being pinned and couldn't move. Only someone with strength rivaling his own could do that. As Edward looked like he was pleased with the reaction he loosened his hold a bit but didn't let go.

"Now you will answer my question," He said glaring at Envy whose eyes were wide and eyebrows were knitted together. He didn't know what was going on but he was pretty sure that this person was Edward. The one he had known, but he had changed. This was understandable seeing as they hadn't met in over 500 years.

"You...what the hell happened to you?" Envy whispered, and one of the blond eyebrows quirked.

The blond looked at him for a long while before he looked at the other two in the room and gave a nod of his head, they left, Verity looking slightly disappointed.

"I asked you how you knew my name, now answer," he whispered menacingly, and tightening his hold on Envy pushed him harder into the crates.

"Fuck...what the hell is going on? You're supposed to be dead," Envy whispered more to himself than to Ed.

"As you can see I am not in a grave," the man responded and Envy looked at him as if really making sure that was true.

"But you can't be Ed...It's impossible...you just can't be," Envy mumbled.

"I am understanding that you are mistaking me for someone else with the same name and features?" Ed asked and Envy nodded and Ed gave a cold smirk. "You are correct it is impossible, I have never met you before. I do not make it my priority to be acquainted with people such as yourself," he said. And Envy's eyes snapped to his, then he grabbed the wrists pinning him.

"And what the hell is that supposed to mean?" he snarled and started putting pressure on the wrists but they didn't relent.

"It means I don't make it my business to be around those who are weak," He said with a slight smirk and Envy growled before he increased his hold on the wrist to strong enough to snap any normal humans then he brought his foot up and kicked Ed off.

"I am not weak, now let me leave before I get angry," Envy said already trembling in fury. He didn't like being called weak since he was far from it. Edward's eyebrows shot up looking very surprised he had been thrown off.

"You will not leave until I am satisfied, now calm down," he said and Envy was glaring at him straight in the eyes and felt a slight haze from staring at him he felt like taking a deep breath and doing as the Edward look alike said but then he recognized he never did that. Anger was always the best form of persuasion. So Envy blinked and snarled before leaping at the blond and pinning him to the ground.

"Who the fuck are you and why the hell do you look like Edward Elric?" he all but screamed. "And WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?" he couldn't help but adding after he saw that after slamming the man to the ground where he'd seen a few shards of glass on the floor, he'd seen a little bit of blood but then the wounds had healed right before his eyes.

That was something he was all too familiar with, being a homunculus. But he was sure that this person was not a homunculus and he could find no explanation as to what he was.

But before he answered Edward flipped the situation around and had Envy pinned to the floor, with more than just muscles Envy realized later.

"I would like to ask you the same thing, you are as strong as I and could almost withstand my mental attack, this makes me curious," he said contemplatively, Envy's eyes were wide as his body continued to shake in anger, the one on top of him didn't seem to notice. Envy frowned in utter confusion, this look a like had thrown him down a hole and he didn't know how to climb back up. He was pretty sure he was in shock.

"Why do you talk like that?" Envy whispered. He didn't know what else to say, he was so confused, this person was very strong and had mind powers…what?

"I have always talked like this, ever since I was born," he replied, and Envy shook his head knowing that wasn't the truth, but didn't feel like arguing.

"Now tell me what you are before I have to pry the information from you myself," Edward said and Envy just stared at him before replying.

"You first," he said quietly, and he saw the golden eyes darken in anger.

"Very well," and then he lowered his head to Envy's neck and opened his mouth.

"W-what are you doing?" Envy said panicked, but then he felt teeth puncture his skin and then he felt blood being sucked from his neck and into the mouth of the one pinning him down. Envy tried pushing him away but it was feeble, for some reason it felt really good, he didn't want him to stop, but it was such a foreign concept he was sort of freaking out about it.

"Nnn! No! Stop it!" He pushed against the guy after he regained a semblance of control of his body, the man stopped and sat up wiping his mouth he was smirking slightly.

"Your blood tastes different, you aren't human at all," he said, and Envy felt himself shudder at the sight before him, but it wasn't in disgust it was far from that.

"No and most humans don't go around drinking blood," Envy said a little shakily as he felt the puncture wounds on his neck heal and knew his blood was replenishing itself as he spoke.

"And you heal quickly, could you be soul bonded to another of my kin?" he asked quietly, and Envy snorted.

"You kind of need a soul to do that," Envy replied with a little sarcasm, he was starting to remember in a book about creatures of the night, who drank the blood of humans, but he couldn't recall what they were called.

"What do you mean?" the blond asked neither of them really seemed to notice what position they were sitting in, or neither of them cared. Envy was on the floor with Edward straddling his hips his hands were resting on Envy's waist and Envy's were on his thighs, but they didn't seem to mind.

"In order to have a soul one has to be human, you said so yourself, I'm not human," Envy replied, and the blond nodded.

"Indeed, now then, what are you?" he asked and Envy gave him a look.

"I'll tell you if you tell me what you are," he said and the blonds' lips broke out into a cold grin.

"I thought what I just did to you would have been as close to spelling it out to you than anything." He chuckled and Envy heard the laugh of Edward hidden in that, he felt sad for some reason.

"Well obviously not cause I still don't know," Envy replied, and the blond cocked his head to the side fake grin still in place.

"Most would call my kind a vampire," he replied and Envy racked his brain for where he'd heard that before then he frowned.

"Vampires are supposed to be a myth…or should have died out long ago," Envy replied still frowning.

"Well your information must be out of date, as one is right here," he gave another cold laugh and Envy frowned.

"Don't laugh unless you really have something to laugh about," he said sullenly, and the Ed look alike gave him another look as if trying to x-ray him.

"Hmm and now tell me what you are stranger," he said quietly, and Envy sighed.

"The name is Envy please try to remember it, and I'm a…homunculus," he wasn't used to telling people because most people never saw him as anything but human but there was always room for change in a person's life.

"A homunculus? I don't know what that is…but it seems familiar to me," Ed said and looked lost in a daze.

"Well it should, we were always trying to kill each other way back when," Envy said, and from that little statement he knew that this was in fact the same Ed he had known, only he had forgotten his old life and had made a new one.

"But that's not possible, you can not be older than the age of twenty, I am over five hundred years old," Ed admitted, and Envy cracked a smirk.

"Sorry kiddo, I'm over nine hundred myself," he smirked and Ed's eyes widened. Then they narrowed.

"I want to know more, and you will tell me," he said in a low voice.

"Says who?" Envy asked indignantly. And Ed growled and lowered his face close to Envy's.

"I do, and you will do as I say unless you wish for death," he growled and Envy gave a chortle.

"Sorry to break it to you, but I can't die very easily, and I do know how to kill you," he replied, even though technically that wasn't true, but he figured anyone but him would die if their head got detached.

"Very well, shall we make a deal then?" Ed asked, his face shadowed slightly as he looked down on Envy.

"A deal?" Envy asked he was slightly intrigued, after all he had been bored for a very long time, and he needed something to do. "Like what?"

"I will give you anything you want for the exchange of information I want," Ed said and to most this would be a great deal but Envy was not most.

"Well...I can already get whatever I want, I'm immortal, I can look however I want, I don't need food or sleep, what could you possibly offer me?" Envy asked and he gave a small shrug, the smirk on his face not really as cocky as it should have been. Edward looked at him for a moment calculatingly.

"If that's true, then why do you not look as happy as you should be?" he asked quietly and Envy looked at him eyes wide and no answer forthcoming.

"I think you are lonely," Edward said even more quietly, and Envy frowned then pushed Edward off of him.

"Of course I'm not, and why the hell would that matter? I am an endless existence, loneliness means nothing to me," Envy said, his voice was even, repeating words he'd told himself too many times to count. Edward continued to stare at him as they both stood facing each other.

"You say that, but your face is begging for anything but that, you don't want to be alone anymore," he said and Envy scowled, turning away, he didn't need this shit. He started walking away but a grip on his wrist made him stop.

"Let me go," he said quietly. "I don't need anything you offer me, and besides. I hate your face." he said and yanked his hand away and made his way to the door but the moment his hand was on the knob his eyes widened in shock. He felt teeth in his neck again and then lips gently sucking; it was the same feeling as before only this time it didn't stop. Envy felt himself going weak he was leaning against the door being held up by Edwards arms around his waist. Envy knew that Edward was going to take it all this time, every drop of blood was being drained and for the first time in his homunculus existence Envy blacked out.
