I believe Envy is a guy. A guidebook said that Envy was genderless… I still think he's a boy. In the English dub they make his voice like a woman's, but in the Japanese sub (aka the original) Envy sounds much more male… I was happy. I think he's the coolest! I've only finished the anime, and not the manga yet, so if you have read the manga version and know the different outcome (because I have read up to book 13, I just need to get my hands on the rest, I know it is different…) just please bear with me and enjoy! Also sorry for the course/dirty language.

A hand reached out to him in the darkness of the light from within the gate.

How long he had been inside he did not know, but he did know that his hatred for that bastard Hoheneim had only grown, along with his hatred for human kind.

He took the hand, and slowly he emerged from the gate, after all this time, to be free!

"Ha! That was stupid of you human!" he exclaimed quickly reaching forth and hitting whoever it was that had brought him back into the world.

The distinctive sound of bone cracking, and flesh tearing was good enough for him, that foolish human would defiantly be dead.

"What do you think you're doing?" a voice called out, he whipped around again, transforming into the shape of a military officer. What he saw shocked him.

"How the hell are you still alive?" he asked curiously and angrily, that person, had the stench of a human, there was no way that she could have survived that, and there was no way that she was a homunculus either.

"That's rude, I just saved your ass, and you try to kill me?" she exclaimed.

"I don't give a shit about being rude or polite. So answer my damned question and tell me how you're still alive." He shot back

"I'm not telling you a thing until you learn a bit of manners, you'd think over a hundred years in the gate would let you learn at least something." She told him.

"Fuck you" was all he could think of as a reply. She rolled her eyes at him,

"So, are you going to come with me or not? I have a place you can stay at, of course, if you prefer sleeping outside in fear of getting caught by the authorities at any moment, be my guest. Also drop the act of military officer; I already know what you really look like."

"Ha, do you really think that you know what I truly look like?" He told her with an edge of bitterness

"Yes, I do. Even that more human like form in which you stay in most of the time is not your real form, right? Your real form is really something much more horrible, isn't it Envy?" She suggested with slight malice.

"Just who exactly are you?" Envy asked her with hate.

"Didn't I tell you? I'm not saying a thing until you can ask with a bit of manners." The girl informed

"Fine" he snapped "please, tell me who you are."

"Well, your tone wasn't exactly pleasant, but, you did say please…" She hesitated a moment before replying fully

"I am Mercy"

This was short, because it's a prologue… Review please!
