For the the next six days at N.C.I.S headquarters, Envy tried his best to avoid all contact with Alice; Knowing that she would bug him about last night. He still didn't know why he chose to save the little baby or why he still takes pity on the humans. He knows he hates them, but he just was how humans would put it, confused.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Envy thought in his head, "It's bad enough that I've got those guys, but now, all these other questions are coming up in my head! Damn it, why now!?"

Just than Tony came in with McGee and Ziva; Returning after talking to one of the witnesses from the recent killings. "Oh great, just when I didn't have enough problems." He said gritting his teeth. Envy saw that Tony was doing some kind of a happy whistle. Envy let out a smile and chuckled, "Well, someone looks happy. What, you finally find yourself a boyfriend old man?"

"Oh, you're funny." Tony said, "Actually, I managed to land myself a hot date with a model."

"Really?" Envy said, still smiling, "How come you didn't drag him to bed with you."

"HEY! I DON'T OVER THE FENCE YOU KNOW!" Tony shouted.

Envy laughed at him, "GAH HA-HA! THAT FACE! OH YEAH THAT'LL BE IN MY HEAD FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE!"

"Really?!" McGee said, "I know you're a criminal but can at least act mature!?"

"Nope!" Envy said with his sadistic smile. Just than Gibbs and Alice both walked in after having a talk with the director. They both saw that they had stopped arguing about.

"Should I even ask?" Alice said, "I don't think you should." Gibbs replied. "Oh great it's you…" Envy said glaring at Alice. "Good morning to you to." Alice said. Envy just turned away from her and said nothing. "What's with him?" Ziva asked, "I don't think he wouldn't want me to tell you." Alice said to her. "What did you manage to find on the culprit?" Gibbs asked, "Nothing." McGee said, "We even checked all of the suspects alibis they all check out."

"In other words we're at another dead end?" Alice asked. The only thing the three could do was nod their heads. Gibbs turned to Envy, "Any idea who else could've done this?" he asked, "Do I really look like a social kind of person?" Envy asked.

"Envy, remember our deal." Alice said. Envy gave Alice another glare, "I know, I know. But I am being completely serious right now, I don't know anyone else who could've done this." Envy had lied without them realizing it. "Are you sure?" Gibbs asked. Envy nodded his head. Tony let out a scoff, "How do we know that we can trust this guy?" He asked, "I mean seriously, we're doing all the work while he get's to kick back and make corny comebacks."

Alice noticed Envy's eyes had just changed.

"Tony…" Alice said.

"No, no, for once Alice I agree with him." Ziva said, "I don't understand the point of bringing him on this case in the first place? You said that he would help us, but all he has done is just relaxing like he's on a vacation."

Alice and Gibbs realized Envy was giving nothing but silence, but as they say, always watch out for the quiet ones. "Tony, Ziva, you should-"

"Hang on, we're not done." Tony said not letting Gibbs finish, "And another thing, what is with the attitude!? I mean seriously, what is your problem with everybody, I mean what did we ever do to you, huh?!"

Alice & Gibbs soon saw Envy's left eye had completely darkened, which made Alice tremble a little.

"His eye…?" Alice asked, "Why is it like that?"

Than in that moment, Envy soon lost it.

"What you ever did…?" Envy said that was a whisper, that got their attention, "You wanna know, what you humans ever did…?" He said getting up from his chair. Suddenly with all his strength he literally sent one of the desks flying right out the window, with Gibb's team and Alice dodging it.

"YOU REJECTED US THAT'S WHAT YOU DID!" He shouted not caring who heard him, and just like that he continued to rage on.

"I MEAN IT'S BAD ENOUGH THAT YOU KILL US FOR SPORT, AND SEND YOUR STUPID DOGS TO ROUND US UP, FOR YOUR STUPID F*****G EXPERIMENTS! I MEAN, WHY THE F*****G HELL DO YOU THINK THE SEVEN SINS WERE FORMED HUH?! WE TIRED OF PEOPLE LIKE YOU F*****G WITH US AROUND AND SO WE GIVE OURSELVES FREEDOM TO DO THINGS OUR OWN DAMN WAY! AND WHY THE F***** DO YOU THINK I KILL PEOPLE HUH!? I WANT TO GIVE YOU A TASTE OF YOUR OWN MEDICINE, OF WHAT IT'S LIKE TO HAVE YOUR OWN F******G LIFE, FLASH RIGHT BEFORE YOUR VERY EYES, AND TO SEE THE FEAR PUT INTO YOUR HEARTS BEFORE YOU DIE! SO YOU KNOW WHAT!? F***** YOU! F******* YOU! F**** YOU! F***** YOU ALL TO HELL!"

With that being said Envy just stormed right of that building, not caring about the many stares he got as he ran out. This left Alice, & Gibbs team just stunned hearing after hearing those words that came out of his mouth. "Bloody hell…" Alice said, "I have to admit, I didn't see that one coming."

"Whoa… I didn't know he actually felt that way…" Ziva said, feeling a bit of guilt.

"When he puts it like that I feel like kind of a cunt now…" Tony said also feeling a bit of guilt.

"This is what happens when you don't keep your opinions to yourselves." Gibbs told the both of them.

McGee looked at the broken window, "More importantly, how are we supposed to explain that to the director?" He asked pointing towards the damage that Envy had caused, "I mean boss, he did just kick your desk right out the window." "We'll think of something." Gibbs said, "So, which one of you is going to talk him into coming back in here?"

"Maybe I should go talk to him." Ziva said, "No, I should, I've been a jerk to him for most of the time." Tony said to her. Alice then stopped the both of them, "I think I should go talk to him. He probably isn't going to listen to one of you anyway."

Alice then went out of the building, and started looking for Envy.


Envy punched and kicked the wall in the alleyway of which he stood. He was so pissed off at those two agents, he had the urge to kill those two to prove that he wasn't lying.

"I HATE THEM! I HATE THEM! I HATE THEM! I HATE THEM SO MUCH! I WANT TO KILL THEM! I DON'T CARE ANYMORE I WANT TO F****G KILL THEM!"

He then stopped and caught his breath. He soon felt his side hurt, from the rage that he had just let out.

"Damn it all…" He thought to himself while biting his lip, "I hate this… I hate this so much… Why does it always have to hurt whenever I just… Lose it… Damn it, why…?"

He soon sensed someone else's presence within the alleyway.

"If you came here to apologise you can just forget about it!" Envy shouted, "I'm done! I'm done with this damn case! Alight, the deal for me is over!"

"My dear, Envy… Didn't anyone ever tell, that it ain't over till the fat lady sings?"

Envy froze at the voice, knowing well who it belonged. He turned around to see-

"N-no…" Envy said, "NO! NO! NO! NOT YOU! ANYONE BUT YOU!"

Something hit him from behind, and everything went black.


"ENVY! ENVY! ENVY WHERE ARE YOU!?"

Alice searched top to bottom, and yet there were no signs of Envy anywhere in the city. At this point, Alice began to actually worry about him.

"Bloody hell Envy, where did you go?" Alice thought to herself.

She then looked in an alleyway, and saw signs of the wall getting damaged. She knew only one person was able to something like that.

"He was here." Alice said after double checking. Than she noticed something on the ground.

"What have we here?"

She picked up the small object. It was some kind of circular object, that looked like a rock, only it was as flat as a paper and the touch was smoother than any other rock.

"This is definitely not a jewlery."

She at it more closely and realized what it was, "Wait a minute, this is a scale, something like a snake would have. Or a dragon in a story. Why would it be-"

She was snapped out of thought when she suddenly heard a loud scream. She recognised the scream.

"ENVY!?"

She quickly ran towards the direction of where she heard the scream, before she placed the object she found in her pocket.


Envy cried out in pain as he felt more of the flames burn on his skin. He cried out in agony as the goons continued to burn him with their matches and a hot metal object pressed on his side.

A young woman who wore a mask like a bird which covered her whole face sat on the other side of the room and watched as the tortured happened. She had light brown hair which was tied back in a ponytail. She was obviously in her teens and wore a japanese uniform, with a gray jean coat and high heels.

They had stripped Envy from his shirt, which revealed his previous burns and scars, and green skin on his side. That was where the pain had hurt most.

We've been sleeping what you wanted

Got us cornered right now

Fallen asleep from our vanity

Might cost us our lives

"My dear sweet Envy." The young girl said to him with a voice that sounded like a devil, "You know that it was rude to leave me without saying goodbye." Envy was now for the first time in his life in tears, after the hours and hours of being tortured by his former gang.

"Ple… Please…" He pleaded through his tears, "Just let me go… Please…"

The woman just snickered as did the other goons. "My, my, Envy, are you begging?" She asked after she had laughed, "I didn't think you were one to beg let alone cry."

"Just let me go… Please… I beg of you…"

"You should already know by now Envy. What happens to bad little boys when you disobey this little gang. Continue your meddling, my little sins."

Just like that they continued to burn him and this time he shrieked.

I hear they're getting closer

Their howls are sending chills down my spin

And time is running out now

They're coming down the hills from behind

"STOP IT! PLEASE! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!" Envy shrieked with more & more tears escaping his eyes. He then felt her hand right on his cheek, which made him flinch and whimper.

"My dear sweet Envy…" She said with her devilish voice, "I wonder, why you would abandon a young girl like myself, especially one who is a leader like myself."

When we start killing

It's all coming down right now

From the nightmare we've created,

I want to be awakened somehow

"And the most foolish thing you could ever do is work with N.C.I.S on the little murders." The woman said.

"N-NO! YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG I JUST-"

Before Envy could say anything more, he felt a her hand like a bullet go across his face.

When we start killing

It all will be falling down

From the hell that we're in

All we are is fading away…

"Did I say, you could talk?" She said. Envy tried his best not to look weak in front of her, but he was failing miserably at it. She continued to caress his cheek.

When we start killing...

"Even after all the years of going through all the of those big operations, after I took you in, you go up and leave without giving us any regard at all."

"JUST LET ME GO! I BEG OF YOU, PLEASE!" Envy screamed.

"Oh come now Envy." she said, "You should already know by now. After all you did agree to this after you joined the Seven Sins. If you are to leave, you are to be tortured. For the rest of your life. You are forever a dog on a chain. Didn't you say you didn't care if we did torture you?"

She then took a metal heated pole, that a member handed to her.

Envy began to struggle on the straps. "NO! NO! STOP IT! STOP IT PLEASE!"

We've been searching all night long

But there's no trace to be found

It's like they all have just vanished

But I know they're around

Suddenly the pole was knocked right out of her hand.

"WHO THE HELL DID THAT!?" One of the goons yelled.

Envy turned his head and saw a familiar face. "Al… Alice…" He said, shocked to see her.

Alice walked in the room with a knife in her hand. The young woman, who was the leader stared at her. "So you're the one who they talk about in London." the leader said, "The infamous Alice Liddell."

I hear they're getting closer

Their howls are sending chills down my spin

And time is running out now

They're coming down the hills from behind

"I'm surprised that you have heard of me." Alice said with a small smile, " I'm guessing that you're the mastermind behind this little gang?"

The leader chuckled as she rubbed her wrist, "You read me like a book Ms. Liddell." She said, "As you always do, I imagine. I must admit your reputation does proceed you."

"I'll take that as a compliment, Ms. Lady of the Sins."

"Lady of the Sins? Hm, I like that name, it has a nice ring to it."

Alice then turned to Envy, and saw the condition he was in. "If you don't mind, I'll be taking him off your hands now." Alice said walking over to him.

The leader chuckled, "Oh, I'm afraid I can't do that, well not just yet anyway." All of a sudden a gun materialized right in her hand.

When we start killing

It's all coming down right now

From the nightmare we've created,

I want to be awakened somehow

She pointed it at Alice and she just started to fire at her. Alice began to dodge the bullets and knock out some of the goons that went after her.

Envy just watched as she fought, seeing the determination in her eyes.

"I don't understand... Why is she doing this...? Even after... What I have been doing to her, and her comrades... She still takes pity over me... And now... She's here to save me... I don't get it...Shouldn't she be happy that I'm the one...suffering now? Shouldn't she be happy that... That I'm the one in fear...? She shouldn't be happy... That I'm the one begging...? She shouldn't be happy that... I'M the one in tears...? Damn it... Why...?"

When we start killing it all will be falling down

From the hell that we're in

All we are is fading away

When we start killing...

Than the tables started to turn, Alice soon got ganged up by the goons and manage to knock her weapon away. Than they pinned her to her knees. The leader walked over to Alice and the goons forced her to look at her.

"You foolish girl…" The leader said with a chuckle, "Did you really think, you could've actually beaten us? All on your own?"

Than they heard Alice laugh.

The sun is rising

The screams have gone

Too many have fallen

Few still stand tall

"Is there something that amuses you, Ms. Liddell?" The leader asked, placing her hand under her chin.

"Who said I was on my own?" Alice asked with a smile.

Is this the ending…

Of what we become?

Will we remember…

What we've done wrong?

Before the leader could ask, they heard several cars stop right outside of their hideout. Alice kicked the goons off of her and got the leader away from her. Alice then showed them a phone that made a call minutes before she entered the building.

"You are very clever aren't you?" The leader said, somewhat amused.

"Thank you." Alice said, "And like I said before, I'll be taking Envy now."

Just than, several agents from N.C.I.S came in, armed and ready, and just like that there was a gun fight.

When we start killing

It's all coming down right now

From the nightmare we've created

I want to be awakened somehow

Envy still couldn't help but watch as the gunfight had started. He still understand why they were doing this for him. He just couldn't get it, those people, he couldn't understand why they were trying to save him, after all he has done to them.

"Why? Why are they doing this?"

When we start killing

It will all be falling down

From the hell that we're in

All we are is fading away

The gunfight continued until the were less of the goons of the Seven Sins and more of the Agents of N.C.I.S.

"Boss!" One of the goons said, "They're too well organized!"

The leader saw how many agents there were surrounding them. She snickered and said, "Well it looks like we'll have to retreat for now." She said. She turned to Envy who was still strapped to the table. "Don't worry dear Envy, we'll see each other again." she said.

"You're just going to run away!?" Ziva shouted.

"No, I just need to do more planning." The leader simply replied, "I'll be seeing you soon, Agents of N.C.I.S."

When we start killing...

Just than a gust of wind blew right into the building forcing the agents to shield their eyes. When they opened their eyes the leader and the goons were just gone.

"Fan out and find them! And round up the remaining members!" Gibbs said. The team did what they were told while Alice went over to Envy. She got the straps off of him, and helped him sit up.

"You okay Envy?" Alice asked him, while checking his wounds, "Jesus what did they do to-" It was only than until she noticed that there were tears streaming down his cheeks. Alice was surprised to see this coming from him.

"Are you… Are you crying?" She asked.

Envy then buried his face into his legs, and just continued to cry. She honestly shocked to see this from him as was Gibbs team. Alice did the only she could think of. She put her arms around him and brought him close to her chest. Envy didn't freeze what-so-ever, he just cried in her arms, and he didn't care who saw him the only thing he could do was cry.

When we start killing…
