Chapter 9: Another sin
I realize that Greed was born about sixty years before Edward was
born according to the manga, and about two-hundred years according to the
anime. Just bear with and read it. I would also like it if you review it.

Everything was set. The stone was created. The red stones where ready for
immediate consumption, and Dante wanted a new body. " Envy! " Envy came run-
ing to the room, hopping that Dante was doubled over in pain so he could finish her
off. Much to his dismay, it was quiet the contrary. " Envy, do not come out of your
tonight. I cannot promise what will happen to you if you don't." Dante commanded
the bieng that resembled a palm tree. " You're going to have a new sibling
tommorow." " So what?" " Just don't kill him." Dante gave him the look that meant
she would replace Envy with another homunculus, if he did that is. " Alright,
alright. Nothing will happen for a little while." said a resented envious creature.
" Good boy." said Dante." I'M NOT A FREAKIN BOY! " shouted Envy.
That night, Dante created a lifeless body from a boulder, so
she could switch bodies with it at the gate. The body had long, flowing black
hair that was slightly wavy,"( You know, like a certain lusty homunculus.) The
eyes were a hazelnut color with gray streaks. She also had a very flattering figure.
Dante thought to herself, That is one of the best I've created yet. Dante clapped her
hands together and slammed them onto the floor. A flash that was slowly turning
purple with each transmutation, lit the room, as well as a lot of the mountain side.
A circle appeared on the floor, filled with symbols and a single eye in the middle.
After she had transmuted the circle, Dante went to a nearby closet and started
carrying the elements and compounds that would become a homunculus. With
this task complete, she brought out a plate and some red stones and began prepar-
ing it attractivly. Finally, she thought, all is in place. Dante clapped her hands
together and laid them on the pile of powered substances. A flash of purple light,
and the Gate of Truth appeared. " Dante, what do you want now?" said an all to
familiar voice. " Dante replied playfully," You know, I just want a servant that will
be more obedient than the second homunculus you gave me." " For equivalent
exchange to work, human material, ah, you know." Dante closed her eyes and
opened them again in the new body she made. " There you are, the material you
need." The gate slowly opened. Hundreds of black arms came out of the gate
and encircled by the former Dante. The hands crept toward the new Dante, but
something kept them back. In the midst of the scene, a middle-aged man walked
out of the gate. He was musculae, and seemed to be wearing leather all over, save
his arms. His coat had a fur collar on it. The gate simply said," Trade completed,
your trade is material, for the being called Greed."

( In a hospital in Resenbul)
" OHHHH, I'M GONNA DIEEEEE! " a silver eyed woman said. A kind
and reassuring hand connected to a blond said," It's okay Trisha, just push." The
baby's head came out first, then the arms and torso, then, finally, the legs came out.
A now panting and sweating Trisha Elric took the baby from the doctor." Congrat-
ulations," the doctor whispered softly," You are now the parents of a very healthy
boy." He was making a reference to the non-stop screaming of the child during
birth. Hoinhiem looked lovingly at Trisha and said," What are we gonna name
him?" Trisha thought for a second, then weakly, but motherly said," How about we
name him, Edward." The original blonde whispered to the whimpering blond,
" Hello Edward, I'm your daddy." The baby looked at his father with the most
intense golden eyes he had ever seen.

"OHHHH,I'M GONNA DIEEEEE! " A certain woman said as
pain that was experienced before shot through her eyes. Peace could only chuckle.
" Honey, it's gonna be okay. You said that last time when Edward was born. Trisha,
just push." She obeyed and pushed. The head came first, then the torso and arms,
then finally,the legs. The same doctor who delivered Edward also delivered this
baby. " Well Trisha, it seems that this boy is a lot more subdued than when Edward
was born." He was making a reference to the child's whimpering, and only
whimpering. The heavenly trait said to his unknowing wife," What are we going to
name himchild?" Trisha thought for a moment, then said weakly, yet motherly," I
like the name Alphonse," Peace couldn't help but reply," It's gonna take a long tine
for himto learn how to spell that." Trisha faintly smiled, then looked at Alphonse
and said," Hello Alphonse. I'm your mother." The silent child awoke,and looked at
his motherwith the most intense silver eyes she had ever seen.
