Chapter 6: Niki's Day

When Brann and Danni left to look for work, I was finding shelter. However, finding is for losers. I was going to BUILD something, and shelter was too tame a word for my plans. I was gonna need pipes, cables, steel beams, plexi glass- the list went on and on. With this in mind, I hit the streets to find some poor sap who would get all this for me. Walking around, I saw a café. Perfect. Walking in, I saw the familiar green hair of my FAVORITE FMA character. OMG IT'S ENVY!

Envy's POV

Boredom. Bored, bored, bored still bored. The plans were at a standstill, there was no one to kill/maim/torture/impersonate/crush their hopes and dreams. In other words, nothing fun. There wasn't even anyone to impersonate! I was sitting in a café in clothes that covered WAY too much skin- and my usual clothes DID NOT make me look like a girl! Stupid Lust… then I heard what sounded like a high pitched squeal and felt VERY afraid for some reason. But that was idiotic! I was a homunculus, I was ENVY, I had nothing to fear! NOTHING! Greed didn't know what he was talking about, I KNOW NO FEAR! Compensating my foot. And I'm not a drama queen! Father was just in a mood when he said that. Looking around for the source of the noise, I saw a girl, no, woman- this was definitely not just a girl, with pale skin, thick, shiny brown hair and the brightest, most insane looking smile I've EVER seen. Even crazier than mine, and that was saying something. She was wearing a very flattering pair of denims and a shirt in a style I hadn't seen before, it had a bunch of straps and showed off her shoulders. It was a conscious effort not to drool. She walked straight up to me and I found myself staring.

"Did you know that flour under pressure creates an explosion bigger than lit gunpowder?" I blinked; where had that come from? I realized my jaw was hanging open and quickly closed it.

"Uh- No. I didn't." I made a mental note to test that theory- preferably somewhere heavily populated where I can blame it on some idiotic innocent. Fun! The girl grinned at me,

"Yup! We should blow up something." OH. MY. GOD. Was this heaven? This was amazing! She was talking about bloodshed! And in this delicious accent that made me feel like my innards were about to implode. This might be the one human, if she was- I was starting to doubt that, who was my equal! Did Lust have a sister I didn't know about or something? With her shiny hair and sweet scent and shining eyes- wait, when did I become some poetic sap?!

"When?" I found myself asking her. Wait- was I giving her control? What was wrong with me? She tilted her head, thinking and I couldn't help but think cute. And the way she pursed her lips? Dead sexy.

Niki's POV

I couldn't help but internally grin, Envy had this confused puppy look on his face that I just found adorable! Kinda like Renji. Bleach rocks! And we were gonna blow stuff up together! It was practically a date!

"How bout now?" I grinned at him, "I have to get some supplies, so let's set fire to somewhere high tech." He was nodding so hard I thought his head was going to fly right off. I let myself have a few happy moments thinking of dismemberment and how hot Envy would look splattered with blood before pulling myself back to reality.

"There's this new company," Envy told me, wearing a sadistic grin that made me feel slightly faint, "all steel and pipes and stuff. Real futuristic, it would look great as a smoking wreckage." Oh god, please kill me now. This was heaven. No, this was me taking over Hell and having a fucking awesome time of it. I gave him my own sadistic smile,

"Sure."

(Line Break that is cowering in terror of Niki)

This was perfect. Oh so very perfect. All the supplies I needed, two fucking huge explosions, one was flour, the other gunpowder, and the most goddamned amazing guy of all time. Just kill me now. On second thought, don't. I want to wrap Envy around my finger first.

"Can you help me carry the stuff I need?" I asked him, pulling out the puppy-dog face. He had a kind of dumbfounded expression and nodded. It was so cute and perfect. I chatted to him about blood and guts and fire and all that wonderful stuff that gives most people nightmares. Somewhere along the conversation he got this dreamy expression and kept staring at me. He was just telling me the most delightful story about a three-way murder and explosion that was apparently too graphic for the manga because I'd never heard of it before when I realized we were close enough to the future base of operations that I couldn't let Envy come any closer. It was time to shake him.

Envy's POV

"Envy?" Her voice was low and sultry and that accent was killing me. I was practically intoxicated by her presence after she shared some tips on mutilation and impossible crimes.

"Yes?" I answered, thanking God, the Devil or whomever the fuck was listening that I didn't stutter and then, oh god in the names of the seven rings of Hell. She was kissing me. It was fiery and impassioned and the way she moved her lips- oh Satan. Oh bloodshed and gore and mother-fucking God- and then she was gone. I looked around frantically and realized that the supplies I had been holding were gone, and Niki had vanished. Well damn. I just stood there for a bit, one thought echoing through my head-

What the fuck just happened?

Niki's POV

Ok, you can kill me now.
