Dark-Kitty: sob Sad yes I know
XXXXXXXXXXXHis body lay motionless on the cold ground. Eyes open and dilated. The misty gray film coating them, as they were no longer the vibrant purple that would burn with anticipation when looked upon. Cold and dead replace it now. And he had stood there and let it happen. Edward Elric hadn't done a thing when his former rival was slaughtered before him, blood was now pooling around his lifeless body. Envy wasn't one the shed tear, even in the worst of situations. But before he died he had cried and begged for his life. Now he was dead, dried tears and blood stained his flawless face. Edward had sworn that he would kill Envy, even if he died in the process, and yet he had stood there and let another kill him. Realization hit him with a tremendous force as he sank to his knees. Tears streaking down his face as he cradled Envy's lifeless corpse in his arms.
"I'm sorry." He whispered onto deaf ears, "I'm so sorry."
BAM!
Ed woke with a start. Sitting strait p he attempted to catch his breath. Sweat covered his face as he looked around the room slowly, letting his eyes adjust to the dim light that illuminated the small room.
BAM!
His heart skipped a beat as his focused landed on the door. There were some muffled voices outside. He slowly got up and padded over to the door. He was still shaking slightly when he opened the door.
"H-hello?" He managed to stammer.
There standing before him, still dressed in their night cloths was Mustang, Armstrong, Hawkeye, Havoc, Fury, and his brother who had aperrantly left the room to get something. This was the one moment that Ed wished he had a camera.
"Wha?" He said for lack of words.
He and Al had decided to stay at central for a few weeks to see if they could catch a lead on the philosopher's stone. They were currently spending their nights in the dorms at the main office.
"Ed are you alright? You were screaming." Havoc said as he stifled a yawn.
"I was?" He asked stupidly.
"Yes, you were saying something along the lines of 'I'm sorry' and 'I didn't mean to'. And I could have sworn I heard Envy's name in there somewhere." Mustang stated bluntly as a thoughtful expression crossed his face.
"What, were you eavesdropping or something?" Fury asked.
"No, I'm in the room right next to him and I happen to be a light sleeper." The Colonial shot back.
Ed just stood there dumbfounded as the to adults started arguing. Memories of his dream started replaying through his mind over and over again. He paled slightly when the image of Envy's dead body flashed through his thoughts. He let out a small squeak when Al put one of his large metal hands on his shoulder.
"Are you alright brother?"
"Yeah, just a bad dream." He managed to croak out as he forced a smile.
The last thing he wanted was for his younger brother to worry about him.
"Oh, alright then." Al said, he had seen right through the fake smile.
After a while everything was straitened out and every one had gone back to bed. What they had all failed to notice was the pair of eyes watching the conversation through the window in the Elrics room. Piercing purple, filled with confusion. Just what had the elder Elric brother dreamed about? They silently dropped out of sight and disappeared as Ed and Al reentered the room.
"Why would he have a dream about me?" Envy questioned himself sighlently.

It had been a grand total of two hours since Envy had found out that little interesting piece of information. He was pissed. No, he was seething with anger, ready to boil over and wipe out anything within a fifty-mile radius of him. Envy hated being confused, much less kept in the dark about things. Infact, just to calm himself down he had started humming a song that he and the other six homunculi had made up a while back.
"This city high, we make sin," He sung softly to himself as his anger slowly subdued.
It was said that he had hated Greed. But that wasn't true, he loved Greed like a brother. Sins went supposed to have feelings but after five years of pretending to be dead things had changed.
"Is attacked to adore and feel our pain."
He truly missed Greed's stupid remarks and deadly attacks. He also missed Lust, she was like an older sister to him. Even if he was really the older one. He missed Pride and how he could always rely on him for backup. Heck he even missed Gluttony. Wrath was the only person left in his life that he cared about. Wrath hadn't spoken a word since Sloth was killed. Well that wasn't completely true. When Envy had found him a couple days after the incident in the warehouse he had said something.
"Brother." He said softly as he smiled and looked up at the sky.
He had called him brother, and then started to cry. Now being himself he probably would have pushed him away in disgust. But they were all that was left. They were the two remaining sins that had escaped the Elrics attempt to kill them.
He stood up and checked his surroundings before bounding away to go and check on Wrath. What he hadn't noticed was the odd looking man with half moon spectacles, wearing long purple robes and had a beard that reached his ankles.
"Curious." He said aloud, and with a 'pop' he was gone.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXEnvy landed gracefully in front of an old mansion that looked as if t had been abandoned centuries ago. Ivy intertwined around the large door that was boarded up so that nosey little children didn't try to sneak a peak. Well that's what it seemed like anyways. Really the door was working perfectly. The shape sifter walked silently into the house and closed the door and locked it behind him.
"Wrath you in here?" The sin said loud enough for his voice to vibrate off the walls and echo back.
No reply.
"Okay then, make a sound, nock something over." He said just as loudly.
There was a sharp intake of breath somewhere in the hallways upstairs. To the untrained ear there wouldn't have been and sound. But after living over four centuries Envy's senses had sharpened to that of a cat. He sighed as he started up the long winding staircase. When he reached the top he walked to the very last room on the left of the hall. The door clicked when it opened and swung open with a loud creak.
"Wrath you in hear?" Envy asked as he scanned the room for any signs of the boy.
He wasn't there but someone else sure was. He tensed as he took a fighting stance and glared at the intruder.
"Who are you and what's your business here?" Envy snapped as the man turned around.
"I mean you no harm, there is no need to be so tense." The man said kindly, there was something strange about this guy.
"Answer me." He snarled.
The man sighed as he reached for his pocket. And if a chain of events were bound to happen, Envy panicked and launched an attack. Surprisingly the man swerved out of the way just in time. By the looks of him he looked quite old but that meant nothing to Envy as he let out a snarl and attacked again, slowly adapting to the intruders moves. Suddenly the unexpected happened, he disappeared then reappeared behind the unnevered sin, twisting his arm into an uncomfortable position behind his back.
"I mean you no harm!" The man bellowed forcefully as he released Envy and took a step back.
"Ch." He snorted, "You never answered my question."
"My name is Professor Dumbledoor, headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry." He stated formally as he pushed his glasses up off the brim of his crooked nose.
"Professor eh? What's you purpose?" He asked smoothly.
He started reaching for his pocket attain but stopped when the sin tensed up again. He sighed the started to speak.
"I' am here to inform you that you have been accepted to Hogwarts, the school that I run."
Envy's eyes narrowed as he glared at the Headmaster.
"An if I decline because it sounds like a bunch of bull?" He questioned.
"If you would like a demonstration I would be glad to show you just how real magic is." He said with a twinkle in his eyes.
"Fine, turn that vase over there into a toad if you're so great." He said with a smirk as he pointed to an elegant case on a stool.
Dumbledoor sighed as he whipped out his wand and muttered a spell thus turning the vase into a toad. Envy just gawked in disbelief.
"There's just no way." He whispered to himself as the toad let out a long croak.
"What do you say?" Dumbledoor asked patiently.
"Let me think about it." He snapped then turned is back to him.
Dumbledoor let out another sigh as he reached into his robes and pulled out two heavy pieces of parchment and set them on the bed and pulled out an odd-looking pocket watch.
"I will return an three days for an answer." He said as he turned to leave the room.
With a pop he was gone. Envy slowly turned around and eyed the letters that were left on the bed. He walked over and picked them up and scanned the covers. On read,
Envy Elric
Room at the end of the hall
Dante's Manor
Central
This made Envy's blood boil. He hated being compared to the Elrics much less sharing their name. He quickly threw it onto the bed and let out a snort of disgust. The ten read the second one. This time it read,
Wrath Curtis
Under the bed
Dante's Manor
Central
He set the letter down and quirked an eyebrow. He crouched low to the ground and pulled back the loose sheets that were hanging over the edge. And sure enough there was Wrath, shaking slightly. Envy's face softened as Wrath looked at him with large frightened eyes. He sighed and pulled the frightened child out from under the bed. He then picked him up off the ground and set him on the bed and flopped down besides him.
"You heard?" Envy asked softly.
He only got a nod in response.
"What do you think? Should we give it a shot?"
Only a shrug. Envy was use to this by now. Something as simple as a shrug from the boy could mean a number of things. In this case he took it to be more of a 'why not'.
"Wouldn't it be nice to just start all over again?" Envy drawled lazily as he lay back on the bed.
A nod.
"And we now have that chance! Leave Central and all our problems behind." He said, a small smile playing at his lips.
Wrath smiled slightly. He knew how badly his brother wanted to escape the horrible memories they had in Central. He reached over and grabbed the letter that was addressed to him. He took out the contents and looked them over carefully.
"But of course if we did accept the offer you would have to start speaking again." He hadn't noticed what Wrath was doing.
He was currently putting random things from the room into the center. His eyes shone brightly as he counted off the items on the list. Then with a clap of his hands a bright light flared up. Illuminating the rum in blue. Envy sat up and looked at the pile of stuff.
"What the?" He asked confused once again.
Today just wasn't his day. Wrath just smiled and handed him the list of supplies. Envy grinned and took a look at the list making sure Wrath had gotten everything.
"You missed the wands." Envy said with a frown, "Cant you transmute those?"
Wrath shook his head guiltily as he looked down at the floor.
"Ah, don't worry about it, we can ask that Dumbledoor guy were we can find one when he comes back." Envy said as he tried on his newly acquired robes.
"Nice work kid." He said with a devilish grin as he patted Wrath on the head lightly.
"Its still dark out, how about we go and pay O'Chibi-san a farewell visit before we leave?"
An inhuman smirk crept across the boys face as he rubbed his hands together.
"Then its settled." Envy said as he opened the bedroom window.
The two sins jumped and landed gracefully on the wet grass and raced towards the sleeping city.
Nobody knew that Envy and Wrath were still alive. They had been thought to be dead for a little over five years now. Man, they were in for a surprise.
