Author's Note:This chapter is definitely M for Smuttiness. Just thought I'd warn you.
Scene six: Under Central
"Mmm, I would have sworn he would have brought him here." Greed placed a hand on his hip while scratching his head. Alphonse felt his soul become somewhat heavier as he glanced around the cold empty room. He couldn't help but wonder what Envy was doing to Ed right now. The thought made him shutter.
"Is there anywhere else you can think of? Anywhere at all?" Greed let out a sigh and narrowed his gaze, thinking hard.
"Honestly this was my best idea. It's not like Envy has so many hiding places. There had been someone else held captive down here but they must have gotten away." Al looked over his shoulder to see the word 'Vengeance ' smeared across the wall. The tiny space was a bit of a mess and he wondered if it was Envy's doing. It looked as though whoever trashed the place was angry and that made Alphonse even more concerned for his brother. What he didn't realize was that they were being watched from above. Even though Envy had managed to go unnoticed, the fact that Alphonse was looking for him was irritating. However nothing pissed him off more then knowing that Greed was helping. He had never trusted Greed anyway, least of all this new one considering who he'd been before he was Greed. The guy was too close to the Elrics. Envy really didn't like the prince however he knew he didn't have a say in any of Father's choices. He was the only person that the homunculus even bothered respecting. And that only came due to the fact that he was the one who created him. Just watching Greed and Al moving around below was enough to make Envy's anger explode. He would have given Edward back once he was done with him. What was so wrong with toying with this one sacrifice? He had considered just leaving Ed alone for a couple of hours before telling Al where he was. But now, that was not the case. Now he had to make an example of him. Now the real pain was going to begin.
"Man, this guy doesn't know how to pipe down!" Greed placed his hand on the side of his head. Ling was being less then cooperative at the moment, due to Envy's presence. It didn't seem to matter how much he complained though, Greed was not going to give into his request and let him take over.
"Come on, we're just wasting time here." Just as they were leaving, Alphonse glanced up at the nearby vent to see it was empty. Without a second thought, he exited the room.

Undisclosed location
A soft dripping was the only sound in the room now as blood rolled down the side of Edward's face and off his chin to the floor. He felt tired and dirty. His shoulder and arm ached from supporting all his weight. Every so often he would bother to open his eyes only to see the same surroundings. The sight of his blood puddling around him caused his stomach to twist into a knot, bringing back that same old sick feeling. It felt like hours since Envy had left him here, trapped in this room and in this unnatural position. Considering that Envy only beat him when he was present though, Ed would put up with the silent discomfort. Of course it wasn't that silent for him.
They never stopped, always crying out, screaming, yelling. There was nothing he could do for them though. There was nothing anyone could do for them. For the most part, it seemed that they had quieted down a little when Envy wasn't around. Tilting his head back, he squinted up at the single light bulb hanging from the ceiling. Trying to push himself up some, it gave his wrist a small amount of relief. He could see from his position that the skin under the chain was rubbed raw and in some places, it had torn, soaking the chain links in crimson. As gruesome a sight it was he couldn't help but wonder how bad his other injuries were. After so long he couldn't take the strain on his leg anymore and dropped back down. Moving had managed to alleviate the pain some however when he finally had to move again it caused the chain to tighten around the open wound, making it sting as a result.
He hissed at the burning, biting the inside of his mouth in order to distract himself. It didn't work. The pain started to subside and almost become numb after so long. Heaving in several deep breaths, he tried to settle some even though he knew there was no way he was going to be comfortable. Just as he started to doze off, there was the sound of a door slamming into a wall. He jolted slightly, reawakening the pain in his wrist. The other souls started to grow louder, panic evident in their tones. The slamming of the door was followed by feet stomping towards him. Just by the sound, he could tell that Envy was mad. Closing his eyes tightly, he kept his head low and his jaw firmly shut. The steps marched right up to him and stopped. He could feel Envy standing behind him. Edward visibly tensed up as a shiver shot up his spine. But despite how obvious it was that he was scared, Envy just didn't care at this point.
Roughly he yanked the teens head back by his blond strands that were handing in his face, receiving a strangled sound that brought a maniacal grin to his face. Edward opened his eyes slightly, still very aware that by doing so the homunculus might smack him around. He was immediately greeted by Envy's face, too close for comfort but he didn't bother trying to get away.
"That stupid tin can you call a brother doesn't know how to stay out of my business." The statement brought some hope to Edward's heart. Maybe that meant Al was close by and he only have to hang on for a little longer. Unfortunately the small amount of relief was short lived when Envy moved faster then expected. Forcing the blond's head forward again, he hunched down behind Ed and grabbed onto his waste and moved him into another awkward position. His wrist instantly started to bleed again, this time running down his arm. Thinking quickly, he took hold of the chain as best he could. Trying to think straight seemed impossible at this point, let alone grasping the situation. "And since I can't really harm him, I'll just have to take my frustrations out on you." Edward felt Envy move in closer to him and he feared what that statement entailed. Without saying anything else, Envy decided to show Ed what he meant. There was no warning as the homunculus slammed himself into Edward from behind. A scream tore from him as a pain he'd never felt ran through his lower half. Envy was inside of him in one swift movement, enjoying the intense response he got. He had after all already tormented to teen mentally as well as physically so why not go to the next level? And besides all that, there was something about torturing a human that brought out a sexual appetite that needed to be satisfied. Envy didn't see the harm in getting something else out of the bargain too. It wasn't like Ed had anything better to do with his time. Edward tried to struggle as best he could however Envy had all the advantage. He withdrew from the blond's body only to thrust back in. Edward screamed again, unable to keep his agony silent.
