Chapter Two
Death, the Last Homoculi, is on a mission. His mission: avenge his fellow Homoculi. His target is Edward Elric, the killer of his beloved Lust. But how exactly is he going to get to Ed, who is in another dimension? The philosopher's stone is the answer…and he already has it in his possession.
Death picked up his piece of chalk and quickly drew up a transmutation circle. It was large circle with a 7 pointed star in it, each point touching the outline of the circle. Death stepped in the middle of the star and pushed his black cloak behind him. He brushed his green shirt and pants quickly from sitting on the ground creating the symbol. When he finished cleansing his pants, he quickly brushed down his spiky brown hair. Even an evil villain must keep up his looks.
Death was prepared to cast the alchemy spell and he quickly slipped on the red jeweled ring. He flinched as a quick shock shot through his arm, but he was fine. He raised his hands, one of them glowing with the ring. He slammed them down casting the spell, shooting him into the dimension where he would find Edward.
Death appeared in a dining room of a strange house. He looked around at the house and he turned to see Edward staring at him, his mouth open about to feed himself a spoonful of Fruit Loops.
"Who the hell are you?" asked Edward putting down the spoon.
"Death, and you must be Edward." Said Death.
"Yep." Answered Ed.
"Funny, thought you would be taller." Said Death.
"I'm not a shrimp!" yelled Edward jumping up angrily.
Death raised his hand with the stone and snapped his finger. The spell was suppose to turn Edward's arm to heavy stone, but it seemed equivalent exchange was still necessary since the effects backfired. In a puff of black smoke, Death fell to the floor and yelled in pain. Edward stared at mess on the floor. Death, from his neck down, was made of pure rock.
"I guess I should help you." Said Edward.
"There you are!" said Ed, stepping back to admire his work.
On Edward's bed laid a variety of tools and instruction manuals. Death laid with a full body of automail, excluding his head. Death blinked his eyes twice and sat up. He tried to rub his eyes when he saw his hands. HE was in shock and stared at his whole body. His mouth was open and totally shocked.
"You can say thank you. I did fix you up quite nicely, even if you tried to attack me." Said Ed.
"You did some good work." Said Death looking at his metallic body stilling gawking.
"Have to be able to fix my own body you know." Said Edward.
"Thank you, I guess." Replied Death.
"Your welcome, now why did you attack me?" asked Ed.
"Revenge. I am supposed to avenge the deaths of my fellow Homoculi." Said Death standing up.
"Well, they aren't all dead. Wrath is still alive." Replied Edward.
"That's great! I must return to my world then!" said Death, about to run off.
"Wait! You mean you can switch dimensions?" asked Ed, wanting to see his brother again.
"Yea, with the Philosopher's stone." He said.
"If you take me with you, I will tell you why you failed to cast that spell on me." Said Ed.
"I do owe you, and I don't care why I failed. I don't plan to use alchemy again. I will just take you with me." Said Death.
"Really? Thanks! I will get my stuff! Your stone is on that desk near the bed!" said Edward running off to get his stuff.
Death picked up the stone and looked into the red stone. He heard a voice, "Death, I will make a deal with you. For every person you kill, you get one of your limbs back. Your torso counts as one. You have 5 days, and if you fail, the reverse will occur." Said the voice.
Death said, "I agree."
