-Chapter 1-

-Pain in remembering-

Pride sat on the edge of his bed. Envy had left him there while he reported to Father and Dante. It had only been a day since he'd arrived at his new home, if he could call it that.

He wasn't too sure. Something just didn't seem right to him. For the life of him, he couldn't figure it out though.

"It seems we have finally gathered the seven deadly sins, but we still have no stone." a very impatient Dante hissed to the eldest sin. "Well, we might be able to get it if we can find the younger Elric. He ran off after trying to bring back Ed."

"Tell the others to get started on the search. Take Pride with you. Maybe it'll draw the boy out."

XDXDXDXDXDXDXD

"Winry, Ed's gone." a mourning Al cried into her shirt. "Al, I know. It hurts right now, but in time things will get better. I promise." Winry tried to comfort the boy, but in her heart she knew it was no use. Those brothers used to be like peanut butter and milk. They always stuck together.

"It's all my fault! If it hadn't been for me he'd still be here. An eternity in a suit of armor would have been better than this."

"Ne Edo-chibi, wanna hear about your past?" Envy asked a little too cheerfully as he entered the room. Golden eyes gazed into cat like violet eyes.

"You had a brother. We've been given an assignment. We have to go find him. He disappeared." Envy had a strange look in his eyes. There was something about it that Pride didn't like.

"I'm not Edo. My name is Pride. Call me Pride." he chided him for not calling him Pride.

"Ne Edo..Pride...you use to be Ed. Ed died and your brother tried to bring you back. Thus you became a homuclus. We already went over this. If I were you I'd get revenge." Pride had a feeling that he was going to say something like that.

"Let's go then." Pride stated as he jumped to his feet. Maybe this so called brother knew something that he didn't.

"General Mustang, you'd better be doing your work in there." a very frustrated Riza called from her desk as she polished her favorite gun.

The General let out a sigh. He looked at a small picture that Maes had given him after Ed's death. The only thing that had been going through his mind lately was a small blond haired chibi.

Why did fate have to be so cruel? Everyone had been happy. Al had begun to accept that there might not be a way to get his body back.

Roy fingered a small velvet box that he'd been carrying around for some time now. How long had it been? Not very long. All he knew was that it hurt.

Just then the door slammed opened. He'd half hoped that it was his fiery lover, but his hopes were dashed when he saw blue. Ed would never have worn the uniform.

Roy had always secretly hoped that he could have at least seen Ed in it once, but now he never would.

Riza plopped another stack of documents on his desk. She knew how he must have felt. She'd loved Ed like he was her own child.

"Colonel Hawkeye, I'm going to take the rest of the day off. I need a break." The woman just nodded, knowing the reason why her commander wanted to leave. The memories here were just to painful for him. Sometimes they were for her as well.

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

Pride stood in a tree as he waited for Envy to return. "Why couldn't they just leave me dead?" he asked himself. The weird thing was that, that hadn't sounded like him in the least. He ignored it though.

"Ed..." he then tested the name on his own lips. Something about it. It felt so familiar. "Elric..."

The other homuclus had told him briefly about his past, but something about it just seemed like a far away story, kind of like something that you'd tell a little child as a good night story.

"Yo, you ready?" He snapped out of his thoughts as a certain palm tree like homuclus jumped onto the branch next to the young Pride.

He nodded as he followed close to the one called Envy. "Did you find anything?" Pride almost felt like he had to ask that.

"I did, and I have a plan on how to get some revenge. It includes you getting dressed up." Envy replied as he eyed the used to be alchemist.

Some very provocative thoughts passed through his mind. He'd have to have some fun later, but first it was time to work.

The homuclus swiftly traveled through the country side, and before long they arrived at Resimbol. (a/n: sorry if I misspelled that. I've seen it written in so many ways.)

The small, green village seemed a little too familiar to Pride. "What is this place?" Pride asked as he landed gracefully on a roof top next to Envy.

"This was your home place." he replied eying the few houses that sparsely littered the country side. "And, you see that over there. That used to be your home." He pointed to a place that looked like a house had burnt down.

Pride frowned at it. What was that familiar scent? "And that's where your brother's staying. Time to dress you us." Pride looked at his wardrobe.

"What's wrong with what I'm wearing?" "Oh, you'll see."

Roy sat on his sofa. His house seemed so dark lately since Ed had been gone. It might seem unbelievable to most, but Ed loved to see colors in Roy's house.

Roy buried his head in his hands. He didn't want to let go. There was always a small chance that he'd come back to him. Every night, Roy went to bed hoping that in the morning a head full of sun colored hair would blur his vision like it used to do, but every morning, it turned into nothing but empty hope.

Sometimes there was just too much pain in remembering.
