Basically this story is an alternate take on what Envy would do as in the anime and manga you all know that he turns into a beast. However in this story he uses another method in order to dispatch Ling and Edward and pulls himself and the two of them into England, where Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry resides.

I might continue the second chapter soon once I get enough reviews, but for now expect to wait. I still have a Durarara/Harry potter fic in progress now.

Please enjoy this story :)

"You bastard!"

"Edward stop!"

He ignored his comrade and advanced to the homunculus sitting comfortably on the slab of stone, his dreadlocks swaying despite the fact that there was no wind. Envy smirked as the golden haired boy sent a metallic fist flying to his face. The boy's arm was not made of flesh and bone, but rather automail, a material that could easily send a normal human being's head soaring out of its socket.

But Envy was anything but human.

He focused his gaze in the arm, which was moving as though in slow motion. The boy himself was also suffering from the same effect, his feet trudging slowly through the scarlet water, scattering what looked like blood drops on to his trousers. His eye color was identical to his hair and was filled with immense fury and hate. Envy then found that he had three options: the first one was to enable the blonde to deliver the punch. It would be a very deadly blow that would literary send him catapulting across the area, but it should be all right considering that he could regenerate. He would leave Edward and his Xingese friend to starve while they search for both him and an exit. Secondly, he could activate a chain reaction within his body cells, causing them to alter and transform him into an inhuman abomination that was horrifying to stare at.

Or he could pursue the third option.

As quick as a flash he reached for Edward's arm and grabbed it, tugging hard at the wrist. The boy screamed as Envy used all of his strength to twist the prosthetic limb until its joints broke and then, as though he were sensing danger approaching, he lashed a foot out at the blonde's stomach. The boy gagged and toppled over into the sea of blood, covering him head to toe with fluids of vivid crimson. There was one last ritual to perform and with a laugh, he pressed down hard on the boy's ribcage with his foot. The boy's howling was like music to his ears, like a melody performed by a very proficient bard.

Then all of a sudden, pain erupted from Envy's left shoulder blade. He turned his head to catch a glimpse of its source and found a steel bladed katana lodged into it. Its blade exhibited an image of the somewhat furious Ling Yao behind him; his eyes squinted to display seriousness. The man briskly pulled out the ruby tinged sword only to have his enemy grip him by the throat. His weapon plunged into the swallow waters and dug itself in vertically so that its embossed hilt was sticking out of the bloody sea. Envy then gave him a wild grin as he squeezed tightly on his neck, relishing the agony that the man was now feeling. The Xingese choked as he struggled to release himself from the homunculus's grasp.

"Stop it Envy!" Edward spluttered as he rose himself to a standing position, clutching his rib with his other hand – the one made out of tissue, flesh and muscles.

The homunculus sneered at the interrupter. "Or else what?" he demanded. "You're going to beat me to a senseless pulp? Hahahaha! In your dreams shorty!"

"That's it I've had it with you!" The blonde alchemist dashed towards him, his hands balled into fists. Envy sensed his next move and in a few seconds the boy joined his partner in an unpleasant hold around the neck.

"Why… did… you do it?" Edward gasped, his voice changed by the constricted grasp around his throat.

"The Ishvalian crisis?" Envy snarled. "Well I was given a mission to perform that task. You probably already know who gave me that mission don't you?"

The blonde started to say something, but was cut off as his vocal cords became compressed. He glanced at his partner who was in a much painful shape than he was. Ling's pupils have disappeared into his eyelids, now putting the whites of his eyes on display. His veins were showing through his skin, his chin flecked with saliva. If Edward doesn't force Envy to loosen his grip, then it would be a matter of seconds before the Xingese meets his demise along with him.

Edward thought of his brother Alphonse. Years ago he had made a promise to him; to restore their bodies back to normal and to undo the sin in which they've caused. He wondered how difficult it must be for him to live without any physical body but a suit of armor. He thought about the moments which Alphonse would complain about how he wasn't able to eat anything, nor feel any pain. What about Winry? Wouldn't her life be ten times trickier if she had to take care of a soul encrusted within a metal body? What about Pinako? And Mustang, and Riza and all the people he knew? And what would Ling's henchmen and his people say when they've discovered that the prince of Xing has fallen to a weakling homunculus. Honestly he didn't even have a clue to whether Envy was that strong.

Suddenly Envy yelled, "YOU'RE COMING WITH ME MOTHERFUCKERS!" and Edward felt himself being dragged along by the inhuman strength of his enemy. Then he realized something.

The well. He wants to push us down there.

He was about to shout something to Ling, but was interrupted by a piercing scream that emitted from his mouth. Envy fell alongside them, laughing evilly as the three of them slid faster and faster into the abyss below.


Great, I guess I'm in heaven now.

Edward's eyes flickered open, thinking that his expectations of lying on a bed of clouds and seeing harp wielding angels gathering around him would be justified. Instead he was facing a concrete wall, smeared with offensive graffiti and grime. A couple of torn up posters were placed in a line, each one depicting an image from an old movie. Two trashcans situated by the wall, positioned so closely together as though they were couples. Sounds of people chatting and cars moving about were heard and it finally dawned to him that he was in an alleyway. He heaved himself up and spotted something else on the ground.

Ling Yao was laying spread eagle on the pavement. Without a moment's hesitation, Edward hurriedly knelt over to examine him, his fingers swooping over the Xingese's neck and wrist, checking to see if there was a pulse.

He couldn't feel one.

He placed his hand over his chest. No heartbeat. He shook the body. No reaction. He shrieked into his ear, his voice attracting a group of passerby's nearby. Still nothing. One man dressed in a waistcoat opened his phone and dialed a number - possibly the police. If Ling wasn't awake in a few minutes, then Edward could be mistaken for murder. Panicking, he performed a CPR on his chest, praying to god that the prince would wake up.

Nothing happened. The prince was dead.

He felt tears forming in his eyes. He had never liked Ling that much, but the thought of how he wasn't able to save a certain girl who was transformed into a chimera and mercy killed began to plague his mind. He thought of Hughes, how he died in an attempt to help the Elric brothers with their quest. He thought of his children and how his daughter would grow up without a father. It was his fault Ling was brought into this mess. The man had kindly accepted his help, whether it was for Xing or his own purposes, he wouldn't know. Breathing deeply, Edward knew there was one last rite to execute in order to confirm his demise. He hoped to god that no one would witness him doing this. Taking in a deep breath, he moved in closer till his forehead was nearly touching the prince's and closed his eyes.

"Don't even think about it."

Suddenly Edward felt himself being pushed off the body as it slowly began to rise. He couldn't believe his eyes. Ling was alive and standing in top shape right in front of him. A scowl representing disgust and irritation was worn on his face as he glared at his surroundings. The waistcoat man who was about to phone the police, then whispered something into the handheld and shoved it into his pocket after staring at them, awestruck.

"Where in the name of Alkahestry am I?" the prince asked.

"Well how should I know?" Edward replied. "But something tells me that we're in a city."

"Excuse me."

They stopped and turned to an old man standing a few paces away from them. He had a long billowing white beard, with spectacles surrounding his kind hearted eyes. He was dressed in a pale robe which made him stick out of place with the other people on the street. He appeared to smile as he moved closer and closer. Edward knew he had recognized his man before. But once he was locking eyes with him, he knew that his thoughts were vindicated.

"Who are you?" Ling inquired curiously.

"I believe we have plenty of time to discuss that," the man replied. "But first let me treat you to a drink at a nearby place. It's just down the end of this alley."

"No thanks old man," Edward sneered. "But we got better things to do."

He had almost turned away until the man said "Edward Elric, I know how to get you home."

Edward stopped on the spot, his fingers twitching with astonishment. How did this man know his name? Was he from Amestris?

But then again there was something oddly familiar about him.

"You do!" Ling also jumped right in the air after hearing about the man's claim. "You really know how to get us back home?"

"Partially yes," the old man replied. "But we'll talk more about it after you've had your meal. You look like you're going to starve to death at the moment."

His smile never ceased on his wrinkled, beard covered face and Edward could see that his eyes kept on darting towards him every now and then. He believed at this point that his thoughts were vindicated.

The man looked almost exactly like his father.


So how was it? I knew I had rushed the ending to this chapter, but nevermind. Once I get motivated enough, chapter two would be epic! Please review!
