Written for wiccat, who requested it in my 'request a drabble' post in my livejournal.

She deserves to be shot, for the simple fact that it took me two hours to write a seme!Ed story. XD All in all though, I'm glad she requested it. Helped me expand my wings.

Any remarks on mischaracterization is more than welcome.

I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist.

Ed was shaking.

Envy was smirking, despite the fact that the smaller boy was straddling him, knife to his throat.

"You can't kill me, you know," Envy said, smiling.

"I killed Greed," Ed said, his voice quivering with both anger and uncertainty.

"He was weak," Envy said, and he smiled. "He wasn't like me."

Ed felt something ripple beneath his knees and when he looked back down at Envy, he stared into the face of his younger brothers human body.

"Niisan..."

"You're not my brother," Ed said, though Envy could see the fear in his eyes.

"Then kill me, niisan."

Ed rose his arm, fully intent on bringing the blade that was attached to the end through Al's – no, Envy's throat.

He brought it down, and –

Fumbled. At the last moment, his muscles jerked and it brought up sparks as it scrapped along the pavement.

Ed jumped off Envy before he knew what he was doing, and Envy stood reverting to normal and brushing the dust off himself.

"You might know it's me, but you can't bring yourself to kill me, even if I have coughed up the philosopher's stones."

Ed glared and ran at him, but Envy side-stepped him and buried his knee in Ed's stomach.

"I could be anyone," Envy said, turning into Roy. "Your colonel," Winry, "your little girlfriend," Hughes, "even your dead friend."

"Hughes is not dead," Ed interrupted.

Envy looked slightly put off at being interrupted, but smirked soon after.

"You don't know, do you? He was killed," Envy turned into Gracia, "because he couldn't kill his beloved wife."

"You bastard..." Ed spat.

Envy returned to normal once again. "I'm told that a lo– hey!" Envy gave a start as Ed grabbed his neck and slammed him into the wall.

End closed his eyes as Envy began to change again, and when Envy began to speak with his newly acquired voice, Ed silenced him by covering up the homoculis' mouth with his own.

Ed's blade was buried deep in Envy's body, then drawn up.

Ed didn't open his eyes when he heard the flesh ripping, and only pulled away when Envy coughed up blood into his mouth.

The two of them fell to their knees and Envy fell onto his side, a pool of blood growing rapidly.

Envy offered a weak smile. "I guess this is the next best thing to being human. Thank you, Fullmetal shri..." and he spoke no more.

Ed held the lifeless body long after the blood stopped flowing and had grown cold, not wanting to acknowledge that he had killed another.

"I hate you," he said slowly, wondering if it were just him or if his words really sounded that weak, "and yet..."

He didn't finish the thought.
