Chapter 25: Fury, Guilt and Remembrances

Envy could see Edward now.

It had taken awhile for Envy to regain his composure after he realized that Dante was dead, she may have thrown him away like trash, but she was still his mother; at first he had been overwhelmed with sadness, but that didn't last too long and it was replaced with the blackest hatred Envy had ever felt, it was stronger than his hatred for Hohenheim or Greed or any of the foolish humans who tried to stop him.

The hatred was for his pint-sized half-brother.

Envy had turned into a crow and flown with speed he didn't know he had, now he was watching the little brat from his perch on a street lamp, he cawed at Ed, the pipsqueak looked at him, but didn't react.

Good.

Envy was slightly curious as to what they were looking at in the chasm, but it didn't really matter all in all, but still...

Envy prepared himself for the kill, clacked his beak and... was immediately hurled to the ground when another, if not much smaller, quake hit.

Envy cawed in fury and began circling the pipsqueak, then he saw a tiny patch of what was down there.

It scared him.

Envy looked at Ed again and decided to bide his time just a little longer, after all: now that Dante was gone Envy had all the time in the world.

Wrath awoke with a scream.

Alphonse nearly dropped him in surprise, Wrath hyperventilated and shook like jelly for the next few minutes, despite Greed telling him to shut the "little brat" up Al found that he couldn't do it, there was just something so... unlike Wrath in those mewling whimpers, because of his cries they were forced to take shelter in a nearby room.

"What's wrong with him?" asked Martel, Greed sighed in exasperation before saying "I don't think now is the time to deal with the little runt, we should just leave him; more than likely he won't be able to accept the fact that Dante's dead, he'll be a basket case."

Alphonse stood up and clenched his fists "No, I won't leave him, it... it isn't the right thing to do, Mother taught us to do the right thing no matter what, leaving Wrath behind would be just as bad as leaving you or Martel. I'm going to wake him up.", Alphonse went over to Wrath and gently shook him awake.

The young homunculus groaned as he sat up, after a minute of rubbing his temples he looked up at Alphonse... and then looked away, Al cocked his head, "What's wrong?" he asked in his best motherly voice, Wrath hesitated before looking him in the eyes, Alphonse was shocked to see tears in his eyes.

"I...I'm sorry" said Wrath in a soft voice " I'm so, so sorry, I've been so... bad, I-Mommy, I tried to kill her!" here his eyes widened and he began to shake " I remember, I remember Her, She was my mommy, not Sloth. I tried to kill her" he started sobbing, Alphonse felt distressed at the look of misery in his eyes " S-s-she actually c-cared f-f-for m-me and I tr-tried to KILL HER!" he practically screamed those last words as he buried his head in his hands and wept.

Alphonse hugged Wrath as he cried, Wrath told him how sorry he was over and over, Alphonse held him until his sobs became hiccups, Greed looked stunned by the outburst and Martel had joined Alphonse in comforting Wrath without him knowing.

After Wrath had dried his eyes Alphonse asked "How do you remember Izumi when you didn't before?", Wrath shrugged, Greed rolled his eyes and said "I bet it has something t'do with the old hag's death.".

Alphonse nodded and was about to respond when they heard a deep, rumbling moan that was so loud it shook the walls, "W-what was that?" asked Wrath, "That sounded like a roar." said Martel, Greed shook his head again "That didn't sound like a roar... it sounded like...like a yawn."

Greed looked Alphonse dead in the eyes and said "I know that this is obvious, but we need to get out of here. Right . Now"

Alphonse, Wrath and Martel nodded in unison.

Author's note: Take THAT Wrath haters :3 I love the character and I really wanted to make him even more of a Woobie than he already was, I hope I did a good job, let me know by reading and reviewing!
