Heat: Chapter 1

It started when he was fourteen, he had been on his way back to his apartment when he decided to go down a shortcut. He realised it was a bad choice when he was suddenly cornered by several chimeara. Immediately he moved into a fighting position, transmuting his favourite spear from the floor, he put up a good fight but there were just too many and a lucky swipe from behind to the back of his head knocked him unconcious.

When he finally came to he found himself stuck in what seemed to be a cell, his hands were bound to prevent him from transmuting anything. He was left there, sat in a dark cell for an unnumbered amount of time, his stomach had stopped rumbling hours ago and now he just felt empty and tired. He leaned back against the wall intent on getting some rest when suddenly he heard the door fly open as a blinding light entered the room, causing him to squint up at the two figures.

"Grab the pipsqueak quickly, the boss says it's his turn," was the deep tinny voice from the taller of the two figures.

"WHO YOU CALLING A PIPSQUEAK SO SMALL HE COULD BE SQUASHED BY AN ANT!" Ed yelled, charging at the two figures. He was sent flying backwards by a gloved fist as the two figures he assumed were guards started laughing.

"Fiesty one, eh number 80?"

"Indeed 18, very fiesty, I see why they left him in here for so long. But he wont be for much longer," Ed froze as he realised he was talking to bodyless armour. He watched in terror as one of the two figures moved forwards, revealing a black suit with the number 80 painted in white on the chest plate. Number 80 grabbed him and threw him onto it's shoulder with a whoosh, sending all the air in his lungs back out, he coughed violently while trying to remember how to breath, jolted out of his stupor.

"Where am I? Where are you taking me?" he managed eventually, the armour just chuckled slightly as it kept moving.

"You are in the remains of Labratory 5 and we're going to the experimentation room where the boss is waiting for you, they've got plans for you apparently, big plans. Hopefully, Ed, you won't have to go through what we did, right 18?"

"Right brother," Ed blinked, then with a gasp he stared at the two suit of armour in shock.

"Fletcher! Russel!"

"Yes, we were captured and brought here, they did this to us and . . ." he didn't get to say anymore because they had reached their destination, Ed found himself dropped into a cage. Looking around frantically he noticed a small golden fox cowering against the opposite end of the cage he was in. His eye's widened when he noticed the array around the cage, desperately he began to throw himself at the bars of the cage, screaming for Russel or Fletcher to let him out. He paused panting for breath at the sound of evil chuckling.

"Edward, my child, it is useless, you cannot break those bars and you cannot escape your fate. You see, from the moment I first saw you after I was reborn, I knew you would and could be greater than ever imagined, it just depended on how you were pushed," two figures stepped out from the shadows surrounding the circle.

"Sloth! Wrath!" Ed gasped, scuttling backwards in his cage, ending up next to the fox that just mewled and shivered in fright.

"Yes Edward, dear, and now as I mentioned, Wrath, if you would be a dear and activate the circle and give him a push to 'greatness'," Sloth said turning to the boy at her side.

"Anything you say mom," Wrath smirked evilly and clapped his hands together, as he lowered his hands everything seemed to slow down for Ed, he lunged towards the nearest edge of the cage a desperate scream tearing from his throat as he slammed against the bars, the golden fox joining him in his efforts, eye's wide in panic. Ed screamed out at Wrath to stop but it was too late, Wrath's hands hit the edge of the array and it shone gold as sparks flew into the air on it's activation. Ed gasped and fell back as pain flared up all over his body, he convulsed as it intensified, unable to scream as it locked up his throat in an effort to prevent him throwing up before he lost conciousness. The last thing he heard was a terrified gasp barely hidden.

Dark Ohhh cliff hanger, I just love these hehe

Light Don't you think it's a bit mean though to leave everyone waiting for the next chapter?

Envy She has no morals why should she care

Light Well she should care what the reviewers (if we have any hint hint) think, I'm tired of having a fire extinguisher ready whenever we get mail just in case of a flamer

Dark Ahh but there is the thing I've never got one yet so readers, please review if you enjoy, if you do I'll think of adding the next chapter, flamers welcome but be prepared for the fire extinguisher hehe
