"Colonial!" Riza said sharply. Roy was trying yet again to sneak off.
"Lieutenant. I didn't see you. Aren't you supposed to be with the girl and the Fuhrer?"
"You ran off. You have a huge amount of paperwork. Come on." Riza grabbed Roy by the collier of his shirt and dragged him back to his office. "There is something more. The girl, she's homunculus."
"WHAT!"
"Don't shout. But... The symbol Ed-kun said that all of the Homunculus have... It was on her shoulder."
"And now she is with the Fuhrer, who also..."
"According to Ed-kun and Al-kun, yes."
"Does he know that you know what the symbol means?"
"Not that I know of. As shocked as I was to see the symbol... I acted as if it was a tattoo that anyone could get. I am sure that he doesn't know anything. Yet."
"Yet?"
"Ed-kun said that all of the Homunculus have odd powers other than being immortal -so to speak. He said that a woman called 'Lust' and finer nails that can cut through anything. Envy... can take on any form. Wrath can fuse with anything. Gluttony can eat anything. Sloth... she can look like a puddle of water. The homunculus who died... Ed-kun called him Greed, he could re-arrange his molecular structure to create a extremely hard shield over his body. And the last, the Fuhrer... Ed-kun doesn't know what he can do. He just has the ultimate eye. But, Ed-kun said that the Homunculus have to eat red stones before they are immortal. I don't think this girl has had any. But if the Fuhrer and his secretary give her some..."
"We'll have another one of them to deal with. Wait!"
"Hmmm?"
"The homunculus' names... They're the seven sins... Lust, Envy, Greed, Wrath, Gluttony, Sloth, and Pride. One called Greed died. Now, another one of them appeared."
"So you think she'd be called 'Greed?' But..."
"Where is Fullmetal-one?"
"I don't know. I think he was heading North... Winly-chan said something like that."
"Perfect. With Havoc in the hospital and rebellions in the north..."
"You think the plan will work?"
"Of course . Now, we just need to unleash it. We need to find a way for you to stay here... So then the plan will work."
"Lieutenant Kain."
"Oh... right... And he had a medical exam today. Find a way to manipulate the records."
"Yes sir!" Riza saluted and walked to the door. She turned before opening it. "Colonial. Paperwork. Now." She left, closing the door firmly behind her.
