Misery smirked as she hopped up onto the windowsill in King Bradley's office, waiting for the two Elric runts to arrive. Not that it would matter, really. She wasn't really planning on listening to Wrath lecture them.

"Wrath and Misery will take over babysitting you now." Misery rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Babysitting humans is the worse." She muttered and her breath as she leaned back against the window casually.

Failure concentrating
Body/motor responses hesitating
Soul/ego shaking
Blur between daydreams and awakening
Loss of control and perpetual
Sense that luck and light are fading
No more ruminating
Shake the strife off your life or keep on waiting

That's my situation
Can't escape 'cause to run is degradation
No expectations
Still I fight to bite temptation

Got to be brave as I unenclave
Find the prize is my fixation, I'm
Still holding onto my pride, Oh

Is this the shine of a wine-toasted victory
Or is it just a sad bitter sigh of defeat?
I'll take it either way. If fate is just a play
I'm tying the strings up starting today

Sound the chime, golden time
Steal perfection in its prime
Take your place, poker face
Ready for the race
I will choose to refuse the illusion
And shatter the nightmare

Faking tame, pressure game
Win or lose it's all the same
Pay the fine, border line
Hapless to divine
If there's any how many and when
Will these games find an ender?
What's the last thing I want to surrender?

Misery couldn't help but laugh as both boys gasped the minute they entered the room. "Wrath, is Fuhrer King Bradley?" Ed exclaimed.

"Brother, Look!" Misery smirked as the two stared at her.

"Yumi?" Ed gasped out in astonishment.

"Hm? You mean the little bitch I took this body from?" She laughed loudly. "Now she was fun to terrify, let me tell you." She grinned widely.

"What?!" Ed and Al's eyes could've fallen out of their eye sockets.

"She, of course, resisted at first. And then I take control of her body to find she gone into soul preservation! Ha ha ha!" Misery laughed loud and mockingly at them.

"What are you talking about?!" Ed growled out through clenched teeth. "Who are you?"

"The names Misery, kid." She smirked at him as she held her right hand up, palm facing them with a grin on her face as she waved at them. "You see, I'm not exactly what you might call, impatient like Greed and the others. I like to terrify the soul that used to occupy this body, to the point that they go into such a drastic state over everything. You see,if the mind can take the power of the homunculus, but the mind is too fragile, or if the mind is took stressed then it goes into over drive and," She made a big explosion noise with a smirk.

"What!?" Roy, Ed, and Al gasped out in unison.

"Oh don't worry. The soul doesn't die. It just goes into this somewhat resting state until they can accept the fact that they have lost their body to a homunculus and will very rarely ever be put back in the drivers seat again." She explained with a smirk.

"You did that to Yumi!?" Al exclaimed in shock.

"Mhm. It was quite easy to, giving the fact that she was pretty much only mere inches away from a meltdown." She laughed. "Humans can be such weak foolish creatures."

Misery slowly walked along a sidewalk, down a street of central beside Greed. She recalled the last time she had existed he had been her favorite sibling. She preferred him over all the others. She grinned as the two of them came up to a phone booth where Ed and Al were at.

"I guess she's still safe for now."

"You know it's that type of desperate worry that their gonna manipulate you with." Greed said casually.

"Ling! Yumi!" Misery rolled her eyes.

"How many times must we go through this?" She smirked at him.

"It's Greed." Greed added.

"And Misery. Not this Yumi bitch, Misery. Get it right, kid." Misery retorted as she crossed her arms over her chest.

"Your pal asked me to bring this for you." Greed said as he handed Ed a cloth with blood on it.

"What, Ling did?"

"Yeah. He wanted you to deliver it to some girl." Greed commented, causing Misery to roll her eyes. 'Smooth, Greed.' She thought to herself silently as she leaned against the phone booth.

"How do I know this isn't some kind of trick? If you follow us and kill her..." Greed interrupted the short alchemists rant with a wide grin on his face.

"I've got more class than that, alright? And as a rule of thumb, I don't fight women." Misery smirked at him.

(Yumi's POV)

Everything is so dark. I can't breathe. Wait, why aren't I dead...? Why aren't I gasping for air...? Do I need to breathe..? Several thoughts and memories flashed through her soul.

"Don't tell me you're going to try and start something. It's no fun fighting a woman."

"I told you, I don't bruise so easily. Weren't you listening doll?"

"Are we done playing games now?"

"This sort of thing isn't my style, but if you don't cooperate I won't have a choice."

"Quit laughing you creeper."

"Do you have to act so sarcastic all the time?"

"Hello Doll Face."

"Face it, Doll, you just can't win!"

"You're really making me break one of my rules hear, kid."

"I make it a rule of mine not to fight women."

"Where the hell did you come from, anyway?"

"YOUR MUM!"

"Roa get the armored kid out of here. Dismantle him or something."

"Hey, Doll face, aren't you gonna go with them?"

"A housewife, and a hotheaded brat, what a team! Though to tell you the truth it's not one I'm interested in fighting right now."

"Wait, Greed! Don't die, okay!"

"Wouldn't dream of it, doll face."

"WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE JUST MADE A FUCKING DEAL WITH HIM!? WOULD IT HAVE BEEN SO BAD!?"

She slowly closed her eyes, not ready yet, to face that fact, that she couldn't save him.

(Misery's POV)

Misery let out an exasperated and tired sigh as she laid on her back with her arm of her eyes, thinking. "Is that body satisfactory, Misery?"

"Wrath, right?" She guessed with a small grin. "And yeah. Look at this loot!" She said, gesturing to the pile of weapons which consisted of two grenades, two guns, and a dagger. "This bitch was a bad ass!"

"I spoke with her once. Her views on justice was amusing. At the time, she wanted nothing more than to get her revenge on Envy and I. How foolish." Wrath commented.

"Humans are rather foolish." Misery agreed.

(Yumi's POV)

She struggled but still couldn't open her eyes. It was almost as if they were stitched shut. "Foolish!?" She grinned widely. "I'll show you who the fool is, Bradley. I just have to bide my time." Her grin widened.

"So long as I bide my time and be patient, I'll have my revenge yet. Just you wait, Bradley."

"Just. You. Wait."

No matter how many times we're reborn
I want to meet you here again
I'll hold your hand so we're not separated

We talked until the sun came up in the morning
We held hands until the sun went down in the evening
Let's spend tomorrow and the next day like this too
Shadows and light

Now I wonder
What do you carry in your heart
And what world did you live in?
You can't find warmth alone
Looking at the town with lonely eyes
When I met you
I learned for the first time
Just how much strength love gives you

No matter how many times we're reborn
I want to meet you here again
I'll hold your hand so we're not separated
I can't sleep alone, because I can't dream
On starless nights, I'll keep shining on you
And take you to a place where no anxiety can reach you

I can go anywhere if I'm with you
Even roads that I couldn't walk alone
With you I can walk them, humming as I go
As long as you're here, I'm happy.
