Hello, there! This is my first fanfic, so reviews are welcomed.

The Gate.

It loomed before me, a massive ornately carved door in a void filled with light.

And behind it was Hoenheim, the man I wanted to kill. I smiled at the thought.

Edward stood in front of me, warning me not to go, but I started opening the gates anyway.

Nobody would stand in my way for revenge.

The doors opened, and I was surrounded by shadowy hands, grabbing at me. Which meant that they were going to take me to the Other Side. I let them; felt them dragging me into the Gates.

And I was encompassed by blinding bright yellow light. I closed my eyes to shield my vision, and it faded after several seconds.

But when I opened them, I saw a metal thing race toward my shoulder out of the corner of my eye.

And then I blacked out.

Which was strange. I was a Homunculus. Homunculi don't suddenly faint; my healing abilities should have prevented that. When I regained consciousness, my whole body was sore, my left shoulder in particular, and I couldn't move from the pain. I also felt something prodding my side, but then I blacked out again.

When I came to a second time, my body didn't feel as sore, but my shoulder still hurt. I opened my eyes, and noticed some ridged leaves plastered on my body, many on my left arm.

Or should I say foreleg? Because I was a green cat. Wait, when I tried to go to the other side of the Gate, I transformed into a dragon, not a cat. And certainly not a green one. It didn't matter, though. I could just transform back into a human. I focused on my familiar human form, willing to transform into that.

But for some reason, nothing happened. Maybe it was the ridged leaves, each about the size of two of my paws? I shook them off.

Still nothing, I still couldn't transform. Did this mean that my healing abilities weren't working, either? Great, this means any human scum can come along and kill me. I sighed, this was getting nowhere. I looked around where I was, thinking that would give me a clue where I was. I seemed to be in a forest, lying on a bed of moss in a circular clearing about 5 yards wide with grass. There was also a fire pit in the center about a yard in diameter, the flames still leaping to escape and wreak havoc upon the nearby grass. On the outskirts of the clearing there was a small pile of torn books stacked in a pile.

I limped toward the stack of books. Maybe I could find some answers in them. I was about a yard from the stack when I heard some leaves crunch behind me. I turned around quickly, thinking it was Ed, back for revenge.

But it was just an orange cat with leaves in her mouth. She dropped them in amazement, and ran up to me. I was confused, but figured she might give me some kind of answer.

The first words out of her mouth were "How the HECK did you heal so fast? Most cats would take a week to wake up after being hit by a car, let alone start walking around! And yet here you are about a day afterwards, walking around my camp!" She twitched her tail. "Maybe I'm not as bad as a healer a I thought."

"Healer?" I stared at her, curious.

She nodded, and seemed to have gotten over her initial shock of seeing me walking around. "I saw that car hit your shoulder and decided to bring you back here. Most Stormtroopers would have killed you on the spot, you looking strange and all."

The fur on my back rose. I didn't trust this cat, even if she claims to have helped me.

She sat down near the fire pit. "Just wondering, but do you have a name?" she asked me, "And are you a Geno, by any chance?"

"Geno?" I stared at her, not knowing the term. "I don't know what that is, but my name? It's Envy"

End of first chapter! I'll try to update sometime this week, so please review in the time being!
