Island
"Nooooooooo!" yelled Lust, "every time a bunch of characters get stuck on an island together things turn out really badly!"
"Not to mention its soooo cliché," added Sloth.
"Do you have a better idea?" Envy screeched.
"Actually its fine with me," Sloth said, "I can just turn myself into water and get away!" And with those words, she was gone.
"Well, one down…" said Greed.
Everyone did that huge dramatic sigh thingy.
At this point, everyone was getting really tired and grouchy, especially Edward who unlike the others, actually needed sleep and food to survive.
"Great – so what do we do now?" he asked.
"Anyone for Celebrity Heads?" offered Pride.
"Nah," said Lust, "there's no point when Envy's playing…"
"That's such a childish bloody suggestion anyway!" said Envy.
"Well what do you suggest then 'Almighty Envy'?" said Pride.

(An hour later…)
"Eating! Eye! Long Fingernails! insert skill here! Carbon! Being Pretty!
We're the deadly sins – you can be one too,
'Cos failing human alchemy is the thing to do!
Killing innocent humans, is the way,
Here's what Colonel Mustang, has to say!"
"The power is YOURS!"
"Oh yeah – I turned into Roy at the exact right time, this time! I usually forget my cue…" laughed Envy.
"Yeah… sorry Edward, that's why it took so long…" explained Greed.
"How could you forget your cue?" demanded Edward, "it went for less than a minute!"
"I have a small attention sp- LOOK! A ladybird!" said Envy.
No one sweat-dropped, they were used to Envy
"Okay," said Wrath, "how do we get off this island?"
"Don't worry," said Pride, "all we have to do is-"
Envy interrupted. "We'll have to split up into pairs to cover more ground!"
"First of all," Lust started, "this 'island' is the size of a swimming pool! There's no more ground to cover! Second, there's seven of us, since Sloth's gone and Edward's here, which means we can't split into pairs, and third, YOU'RE AN IDIOT! Why should we listen to you?"
"Because…" said Envy, "First of all, I'm the oldest! Second, Dante, who rules you all like the pathetic drones you are, is my mother and third, my hair is really damn nice!"
"He's got us there," admitted the others.
"So," Envy continued, "Lust, you go with Gluttony. Greed, you're with Pride."
"NOOOOOOOO!" cried Pride.
"So Shrimp, Wrath, you're coming with me," Envy declared.
They gulped… loudly.
When Envy had ensured each group had gotten as far away from each other as possible, he explained why he had chosen them.
"What do you two have that the others don't?" he asked them.
They looked at each other. "Uhh, we're both short?" guessed Wrath.
"I AM NOT SO SHORT THAT MY IDEA OF A SPACIOUS APARTMENT IS A MATCHBOX!" Edward screamed.
"SHUT UP YOU IDIOTS! YOU'RE GIVING ME A HEADACHE!" yelled Envy, "And yes you are by the way, Shrimp! But no, damnit! Alchemy! You can both do alchemy!"
"So… what do you want? Painkillers?" asked Edward.
"NO! I want a really big ship! One with those huge sails, and a pirate flag, and a ghost crew, and a giant steering wheel thing with 'ENVY' engraved in gold letters, and-"
Edward and Wrath ignored him and made a little canoe.
"Fine, that'll do… aren't you gonna make yourselves one?" Envy asked.
Edward and Wrath sighed. "Alright, alright…"
"No wait I've changed my mind," said Envy.
"REALLY?" they asked, knowing it would be really tiring to make another one.
"What can I say? I'm feeling generous," said Envy, "oh, and you didn't expect me to row for myself, did you?"
They sighed again.
…………………………………………………………….
(Half an hour later, still rowing…)
"Row row row ya boat, gently down the stream! Mer-"
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" cried the two scarred rowers, as Envy reached the high note.
"Hey look!" exclaimed Envy, " I see land!"
"Really?" asked Wrath, turning his head to see.
"HEY! Turn back around! Don't slow down your rowing…" Envy snarled. "But… what's that sign?"
"How would we know? You won't even let us turn around!" yelled Edward.
"Oh yeah, and less talk too! You're slowing down!" roared Envy.
"But we're tired…" Wrath whimpered.
"What did I just say? Hey, I can almost read the sign…It says….an….anime…no!"
"WHAT IS IT?" Edward and Wrath shouted.
"…a…an….ANIME CONVENTION!"
"AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
