A/N: This one is a SUPERVILLAIN version! I wanted to nod to classic comic/cartoon badguys. Also I thought it would be fun to have a twisted and demented Roy Mustang. This is meant to be a little outrageous. Also I wanted to tweak the whole character base, Hoenheim's "Brother" who is only mentioned in the story would be an AU version of Father. Please don't forget to tell me what you think!
Riza stepped into the dark office a sheaf of papers in her hands. The business suit she wore clung to her hourglass figure accentuating her curves.
"What is this?" The dark haired man at the desk asked. His deep voice was curious as she stopped before him and offered the packet.
"The final piece." She announced in a sultry tone. Roy's sable eyes gleamed bright with excitement at this.
"So what kind of weakness does our enemy boast?" He asked taking the papers. Riza flicked the desk lamp on and bright light illuminated the two. Riza pushed the shade down more so it didn't blaze in their eyes.
"Two of them. Brothers like our enemies. They are unfortunately left alone while their father is away on business. And they are completely ordinary." Riza replied. Her voice was cold as she tapped a picture of two blond boys in suits.
"This is good work Riza. With these two we can finally implement the final attack. And once this is done our vengeance will be complete." He smirked.
"Shall I lead the men on this one?" She asked eager to see action. Her brown eyes glowed with impatience.
"Actually I was hoping you could help me with something else." He replied giving her a suggestive look. "Havoc and Fuery can handle the little bastards. I want you by my side tonight."
Riza nodded. "Anything for you Roy." She took the photos and the paper with their address on it and started to leave the office.
"Riza, you know where to find me." He said pleasantly.
"Why would I know that?" She asked playfully not turning to look at him.
She left the rom and then briskly marched down the halls to a large conference room where a group of gentlemen sat chatting about little things.
"We have orders." Riza said stepping into the room. They all turned to look at her eyes bright and shining. They were always eager for battle.
"Havoc and Fuery will be off to capture our targets. We want them completely unharmed." She commanded looking at the two men.
The blond Havoc grinned, "Ooh I've never kidnapped anyone before." He murmured.
"You better be careful not to kill them in the process." The bespectacled Fuery warned.
"That's why you both go." Riza reminded.
"The rest of us will stay here and go about our usual work. Breda and Falman will finish preparing the trap. We need it ready by sunrise." The other two men in the room nodded and left.
Havoc and Fuery rose looking at Riza. "Chief wants you close tonight doesn't he?"
Riza nodded a concerned look in her eyes. "He struggles with it more than the rest of us do."
She watched them all leave before turning off the light and leaving. The halls of the building they operated out of were dimly lit. The carpeted floors kept her heels from clacking as she stepped down a corridor and then turned to a lage pair of double doors at the end of it.
She opened the doors and slipped inside. She checked her watch and sighed when she realized it was eleven P.M. She had spent most of her day working hard on this final little bit.
The room was bright this time with the lights from the ceiling all on. The floor and walls were covered in stone and tile. The only object in the room was a large California king bed made of wrought iron.
The spread was a simple clean black.
Roy entered from the bathroom on the side. He shut the steel door behind him and smiled at her. "I take it the group is all off to work?"
"Of course." Riza replied.
"Then I ask you for your help tonight." He murmured. She closed the gap between them.
"For you anything." She promised gently. "Ever since that day my life belongs to you."
He took her face in his hands and kissed her. She melted into the passion he displayed and he guided her towards the bed. The two rolled on top of it. Roy pulled back to breath. His dark eyes were full of desire.
Riza looked into them and saw what he really needed. A moment where he could feel human again.
He undid the pins in her hair deftly. She returned the favor by popping open his dress shirt.
Fingers tangled in her hair as his lips pressed against hers again. Fingernails clawed into his back desperately. Gasping for breath they parted just barely. Riza looked into his eyes and begged him to come to her.
The pair melted into each other as adrenaline and passion possessed them.
The next morning Roy awoke with Riza snuggled against his chest. Her warm body against his made him smile. Then he remembered that they had things to do and Roy attempted to escape the covers without waking Riza.
She turned over but remained asleep.
Roy looked at the walls and floor and nearly swore aloud at the black scorch marks scattered around. Roy went to pick up his clothes from the previous day and sighed when his pants crumbled into ash at his touch.
Riza stirred and opened her chocolate eyes. "Roy?" She asked.
"Right here." He assured.
She rose and looked at the room. She said nothing at the sooty reminders of his power. When she walked by him half naked wearing his shirt he could just see the scar on her spine at the base of her neck.
He followed her into the bathroom dumping the unsinged clothes into a hamper. "How did you sleep?" He asked.
"As I always do beside you." She replied. "Nightmares?" She asked not needing to explain.
Roy closed his eyes. "That Damn Hoenheim and his brother will pay for what they did to us." He growled.
Riza put a hand on his exposed chest. "That is what today is about." She agreed easing his soul.
They showered and dressed quickly.
Together they marched for the conference room. Roy was in a pair of black slacks, white dress shirt, black tie, and black leather jacket. Riza wore a simple skirt and blouse with a similar leather jacket.
When they entered the whole gang was together with two frightened new faces.
"Edward and Alphonse." Roy hissed. The brothers looked at him and their golden eyes grew wide.
"Welcome to my humble abode." Roy grinned vicously. "You are the guests of honor!"
"What do you want with us?" The older one demanded.
"My dear Edward, we want your father." Roy answered pleasantly. "He is the root of my troubles and I wish to amend that fact."
"Who are you?" Edward asked in confusion.
"Who?" Roy asked darkly. His eyes lost their friendly gleam and he stepped right in front of them. Fire ignited on his finger tips and he waved it close enough for them to feel the heat.
Shocked the elder brother glared. "You are the villain my father is trying to stop!"
Roy's eyes faltered down at the ground as he made an ugly face. He clenched his fists tightly. Havoc almost smacked the teen for saying it. The others held their breath or sighed.
"He is not the villain!" Riza snapped. Her brown eyes flashed with contempt for the children.
"I am the victim. Of your father's damned experiments." Roy said when he was in control of his emotions.
"My father is a good man. He made the heroes known as Team Genesis!" Alphonse argued.
"Yes, Genesis." Roy sneered. "Before that your father destroyed the lives of six people a decade ago. Most were simply visiting the hospital for a flu vaccine, others were there for injuries. Your father collected these six and did the unthinkable. He committed human experimentation on unwilling and unsuspecting subjects."
"My father would never," Alphonse fired back.
"He would." Riza said looking intently at them. "We are the proof."
"What?" Edward asked more confused than before.
"Listen kid, your father thought we would just rally to his cause, but when we realized what he had done to us we made our escape. We didn't even fully understand the extent of our transformations."
Roy made a hand gesture and Riza stood stock still her eyes seemed to glow as they scanned over the room. The brothers watched as her gaze landed on a chair made of steel. The furniture slowly began to melt.
She blinked and turned away.
"I've heard my father talk about eye experimentation. He said it would be the equivalent of laser vision."
"Do not think so lowly of her eyes." Roy snarled. "She has the best vision in the world, she can indeed melt things with that look, but she can also see through things." He said menacingly.
"You have already witnessed the power of Havoc and Fuery. Breda!" Roy ordered.
Breda walked up to the boys and asked them the most insane algebra question ever. Edward looked dumbfounded. Alphonse stared in awe. "Mental improvement." The younger boy whispered.
Then Falman who simply lifted the boys into the air without touhing them. "Telekenisis." Edward hissed.
"What about you?" They asked Roy as they were placed back on the floor.
He gave them a warning glare. "Fire." He whispered and the space between them lit up with a roaring blaze. "Your father wanted someone who could master the element man was only capable of harnessing. Unfortunately your father was a fool to think that fire could be tamed. In times of great emotion or when unconscious I can not control this power. The reason I hate your father so much more than I would is because of what this power has done."
The boys looked at him eager to hear the tale.
Roy gritted his teeth but continued. "After we escaped, we were found by paramedics, we passed out after using our powers the first time. In the hospital I lost control of my emotions. So did these five. We were all despodent and full of fear. The nursing staff tried to ease our spirits but to no avail. And then I had nightmares about what little experimentation I had been awake for. I awoke to screaming and smoke. I had caused the hospital to catch fire." Roy rubbed a hand over his face trying to finish the story. He shook with rage and Riza spoke up.
"In the end that fire killed several people. If not for our powers he would have been sentenced to death though he did not willingly commit arson." She said gently, mournfully.
"I am a fugitive thanks to your father." Roy growled.
"Maybe if you had stayed you would have learned how to overcome your emotions." Edward replied evenly. The fire between them grew inching closer until he could feel his brow dampening with sweat. The flames licked closer with each second until they were about to singe his eyebrows.
"Roy!" Riza cried out and the flames dissipated.
"I don't expect you to understand." He said giving the boys a distasteful look before leaving. Riza followed after quickly.
"You kids are awful." Havoc growled.
"H0w long before your father and his creations come for you?" Breda demanded running a hand through his red-brown hair.
Edward looked like he would stay silent but Alphonse wanted to say soemthing. "He could be here at any moment. You won't even know it."
"Ha!" Fuery admonished. "This may be a fully functional business, but it has the most advanced defenses you could imagine."
With that the two were left tied up in the conference room.
"I'll kill them!" Roy yelled.
"Don't." Riza begged.
"I want their father to suffer!" He roared.
"He will." She assured.
The two stormed down the halls to a room with a large screen and many computer banks.
They took two seats at the front and waited.
At noon the system alarm blinked. The screen showed the enemy approaching. Seven idiots in brown suits and one older man in a lab coat. They walked up to the front doors. "As instructed we have come for my children." Hoenheim called.
The door opened and they slowly entered.
Then Falman and Breda sprung the trap. Falman telikenetically separated the group forcing them into different corners. That is when Breda's containment units sparked to life effectively sealing one of the seven heroes in each.
Hoenheim stared in shock. "Who are you?" The older blond man demanded.
"Guess." Roy's voice echoed through the halls.
"Please just let my sons go." He begged.
"Not on our life Hoenheim." Roy growled.
A door opened. "If you want Team Genesis alive then follow the lights."
He stepped through the open door. A hall with two ways greeted him. The one to his left had been lit. He took it.
Then a door and he opened it. He was greeted by blackness. Suddenly orange light sprung up in the sconces on the walls. In the center of the room were his sons. Along the wall were five people. Four men and a woman in black leather jackets.
Roy stepped towards Hoenheim from the front. "Greetings Hoenheim."
"Why are you doing this?"
"Do you not recognize us?" Roy asked a little taken aback.
"Have you been the one attacking the members of Genesis?" Hoenheim asked.
"Yes." Roy grinned, "And so much more." He added grimly. "You created six before Genesis. You did it without permission and they rebelled. They escaped but not before promising vengeance."
"Generation one." The scientist breathed.
"Yes." Roy said closing the gap. "You made us monsters, now I believe you owe us." Roy said.
"What?"
"For putting us through the shame and humiliaton, and for defiling our humanity."
"I thought you would appreciate the chance to make a difference." The scientist replied.
"No!" Roy fired back. "You wanted good little robots to do what you were afraid of doing."
"I merely wanted to make you great."
"And none of us wanted that!" Havoc shouted impatiently.
"You will now pay." Roy said fire forcing Hoenheim into a corner and suddenly one of Breda and Falman's containment units came up from the floor and closed around him. There was enough space between the charged bars for him to see his sons.
Riza picked up a gleaming metal breifcase beside her and held it on her palms horizontally. Roy opened it and pulled out a large syringe filled with a cloudy white fluid. He thumped the glass tube to force out any airbubbles then gave it a test squeeze. Dribble escaped the end of the needle.
"Which one first?" Roy asked his enemy. "Edward or Alphonse?"
"YOU WOULDN'T DARE KILL THEM!" Hoenheim screamed trying to grab the bars and getting shocked in the process. Sweat dripped from his brow as his harried golden eyes begged Roy not to do it.
"Kill?" Havoc asked from the corner. "The Boss doesn't kill anyone. This is your own special brand of superhuman juice."
Hoenhem stared in disbelief. "No one knows how to do it!"
"Except that the serum enhanced our brains and we reverse engineered your work by studying our blood." Breda said grinning.
"No." Hoenheim begged. "They are just children, not ready for such power."
"Neither were we." Roy growled.
"I accept it!" Edward yelled defiantly. "I'll take whatever power you can offer, the old man refuses to make me a hero."
"Brother no!" Alphonse shouted.
"My son please do not be so eager for power!"
"Too late." Roy approached the boy and pushed the needle deep into his forearm. Then he pressed the plunger in slowly. "This will hurt."
Everyone watched. Hoenheim yelled any offer he could but Roy pulled the empty syringe away and stepped back.
Edward stiffened then began to writhe in pain. He fell from his chair convulsing on the ground. "What have you done?" Hoenheim begged.
"Settled a score." Roy spat.
Riza had a second syringe in her hand and offered it.
"NO NOT ALPHONSE TOO!"
He did the same to the younger brother. When the two were lying uncouncious on the ground Roy looked at the scientist who had begun to weep.
"Don't act like it was so different than what you did to us." Riza said as she approached him. "You brought this upon your own head."
A containment unit enveloped the boys and then they moved out of the building along with the seven so called heroes who hadn't even been able to escape the traps. "I send you all home now." Roy said waving goodbye as they were loaded onto an airplane. " He and Riza climbed into the cockpit.
As they took off they could hear Hoenheim calling to his sons desperately. When they remained comatose he wailed promising that Roy would not get away with it. Roy chuckled as he shared a smile with Riza.
"I look forward to beating him in the future."
"I pray we never lose."
