Me:I'm on a role!
Ed: Well, duh. You already had this chapter and the future four chapters already written.
Me: -- That's not what I meant. I meant that I actually want to type this fic, when usually, I'm too lazy to.
Ed: -- You and your laziness...
Me: ENJOY!
Ed. Aren't you forgetting something?

Ed: Yes. It's the least you can do afer making me suffer so much in this stupid story.
Me: BLAME THE SPORKS!
Ed: --;;; Enjoy.
Episode 4: The Price of a Body
"Fullmetal's what!" Roy yelled. He had just gotten a call from the hospital. "I'm coming over right now!" He slammed the phone back to the reciver. If he was at his office, Hawkeye would have probably told him to go easy on the phone. Just like when he talked to Hughes. He grabbed his coat and Al quickly follwed him, confused.
"What's wrong? Did something happen to Nii-san,"
"Fulmetal locked himself in and won't open the goddamn door! Fuckin' idiot!"
"What!"
Roy banged on the door.
"FULLMETAL! YOU OPEN THIS GODDAMN DOOR RIGHT NOW!"
"Nii-san! PLease! Unlock the door!"
To their surprise, the door opened a bit, and a hand that sort looked liked Ed's, yanked Al in to the room, leaving a bewlidered Roy. There was click, indicating it was locked again.
AL landed on his butt. "Itetetetetete..."
"Hello Alphonse,"
"Wha-? ENVY!"
"Yep! The one and only!"
"Why are yo here and what did you do to Nii-san!"
"I didn't do anything,"
From behind him, a pale, expressionless Ed came out.
"Nii-san!" Al cried, reaching out for Ed.
Envy blocked the way. "He isn't going to respond. Actually, he hardly responds to anything. The closest he would ever do to responding is only to me,"
"Stop lying! Nii-san would never listen to the likes of you!"
"Really? Is he too stupid not to even listen to his own kind? He isn't your nii-san anymore. His name is Pride, and he's one of us,"
"NO! HE ISN'T ONE OF YOU! HE'S HUMAN!"
"Humans have souls,"
"So does Nii-san!"
"Reaally?"
"WHat are you trying to say?"
"Do you really think he has a soul?"
"WHat are you saying! He has a soul!"
"Not anymore,"
"What!"
"Internal organs wasn't the only thing he handed over to the truth,"
"No..."
"Yes. He gave his soul,"
"No!"
"Why do you think he's freezing? Why ddo you think he has shallow breating? Why do you think he doesn't show any emotions at all?"
"..."
"Luckily, we have his soul,"
Envy took out a silvery orb thingy that was wispy.
"Give it back," AL said quietly.
"WHat did you say?"
"I SAID GIVE IT BACK! GIVE BACK NII-SAN'S SOUL!"
"Nope. The fun just started.. Besides..I have orders from Otou-sama. And I always did want to see you two try to kill each other,"
"Nii-san would never try to kill him! Same goes for me!"
"Really? We'll see about that," Rnvy laughed. He grabbed Ed and took off from the window.
"NII-SAN!" Al yelled, dashing to the window. But Envy and his brother was no where in sight. Al's knees gave out and he started to sob. "Nii-san..It's all my fault...I'm so sorry..."
The door burst in to flames and Roy came in.
"Alphonse! Are you all right? We heard yelling, and I thought it called for some drastic measures... Where's Fullmetal?"
Al pointed out the window, still sobbing.
"Out the window...?"
AL nodded.
"Doctor, may I take him home?"
"Yes, you should,"
Roy led Al out of the room.
Me: YEPEE! ANOTHER CHAPPIE DONE!
Ed: YOU'RE GONNA MAKE ME AND AL KILL EACH OTHER!
Me: Eheheheheheh...
Ed: CURSE YOU YOU STUPID AUTHOR!
Me: WAIT!
Ed: What?
Me: YOu have a girlfreind.
Ed: WHAT! WHO SAID YOU CAN MAKE ME HAVE A GIRLFREIND!
Me:...Umm...
Ed: WHo it is?
Me: Gun chick
Ed: GUn chick? ...Riza?
Me: Yep!
Ed: SHE'S HALF MY AGE! ISN' T THAT ILLEGAL OR SOMETHING!
Me: SCREW LAWS! I HATE EM! THEY CONFUSE ME TOO MUCH!
Ed: I can't belive this...
