Prologue

The only emotion that fills my entire being as I walk through the crowded streets of Lior is hate. I hate everyone and everything I see, especially the little alchemist sitting at the bar.

My name is Scarlet, and you will refer to me only as Scarlet. I look to be about 15 or 16, but that is just what everybody assumes. I am over a hundred years old, and I am immortal to a certain extent. You've heard of homunculi, correct? That is exactly what I am. I am not named after the 7 deadly sins like the rest, but that is because I am not like them.

I do not feast on philosophers stones, and I was not created by 'Father'. I was created by a scientist whose experiment went wrong. I will explain more of my 'story' later, when it is necessary to know.

As far as appearances go, I have thick dark scarlet hair that reaches my waist, which is where my name comes from. My side bangs often cover my right eye. Speaking of eyes, mine are not exactly normal. My right eye, the one that I keep covered, is a dark crimson while my left eye is a forest green. Because of the colors, Envy often calls me Christmas.

I think I have a pretty big bust, but not as big as Lust's. I have an hour glass figure and I'm relatively skinny. I'm about 5'6, so I'm pretty small compared to most homunculi. That is all that you need to know about me at the moment.

Now back to that little alchemist I meantioned at the beginning. Edward Elric. I have never met someone who disgusts me more than he does, except his little brother Alphonse.

How could you possibly want to help this stupid world? While I was human and mortal, I learned just how disgusting this world is. Threatening their own kind, harming creatures just like them. Disgusting. Even now, as a homunculus, I still see how horrid this world is. Everyday I hear people speaking of how they will help the world; pathetic.

They're all pathetic. Every single atom in their weak bodies is pathetic.
