Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood
Homunculus Fan-fiction
Hi, guys! Finally on chapter 4. Thanks for reading this fanfiction, and I hope you enjoy this chapter!
I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist nor Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.
Greed woke up early and sat up in his tent. He couldn't believe that they were already down to the final four. He knew if he was this close, he had to win the whole competition. His biggest obstacle was probably Envy. He knew Envy always had a trick up his sleeve. Greed had heard Al call for them.
Greed sighed. 'Time for another challenge,' He thought.
"Welcome back, Homunculi!" Al greeted the remaining players. "Today it will be a team challenge."
Lust questioned, "Then how do you decide who goes home?"
"Well, the losing team will face off in a sudden death battle," Al continued.
"So whatever person wins the sudden death battle will get to move on and be part of the final three," Pride smiled.
"Yes!" Al nodded.
Envy yawned, 'This competition is so boring.' He would throw a challenge, but Pipsqueak probably had the most horrible punishment just waiting for him.
"So what is the challenge?" Envy asked even though he really didn't care.
Al smiled at Envy. Al thought maybe Envy attitude was changing. Then again it's Envy we're talking about.
He finally explained with great enthusiasm, "You all we be participating in a scavenger hunt!"
Pride spoke out, "Can we pick partners, or is it by random draw?"
"Um well, the winner of the last challenge was suppose to pick the teams," Al explained, "But since we didn't have a winner for the third challenge, the winner of the second challenge will pick. That means... Lust, you get to pick the teams."
Lust smiled, making it obvious that she loved having all the power. She really wanted Greed on her team, but she knew Greed and Envy never got along. So, if she put Greed and Envy together, they were destined to lose the challenge, and one of them would be sent home.
"Okay, so, I will be partners with Pride," Lust began. "and that means Envy and Greed, you two are partners." She wore a wicked smile.
"Alright then since teams are picked, here is your first clue from the scavenger hunt," Al said, giving the two teams a clue.
Greed ripped the clue from Envy's hands and read aloud, "Go find a palm tree, and dig through the sand that's under it,"
Once Greed was finished reading, he quickly spotted a palm tree. He made this very clear when he yelled. "Al! I found a palm tree!" He laughed and fell to the ground, pointing at Envy.
Since Greed was on the ground, Envy took advantage of that. He stepped on Greed a couple times.
"Aren't you funny?" Envy hissed as he pounded his fist into Greed's chest. But Greed had used his ultimate shield, which made Envy even angrier. The two continued to fight for a couple minutes.
Lust knew she made the right decision. Pride and herself already had a big lead.
One hour into the challenge, it started raining.
"Are you kidding me?!" Envy yelled as Greed and himself pushed their way through the forest. They both knew that Lust and Pride were in the lead, but then they heard arguing.
"Jump in the water!" Lust yelled at Pride.
"No, you jump in the water!" Pride shot back.
'They must be yelling about the clue' Envy thought. The clue had read: jump in the only lake on the desert, and swim until you find a key. Without thinking Envy had pushed Greed into the lake. The rain made the lake muddier and harder to swim in.
"Why did you do that, Envy?!" Greed yelled, his face covered in mud.
Envy laughed and shrugged, "Go find the key."
Lust and Pride finally stopped arguing when they realized that Envy and Greed had taken the lead. Pride was the one to jump into the water and search for the key.
About ten minutes later, Pride had found the key, but Greed was still looking. Pride jumped out of the water. Envy took notice and stuck his foot out, and Pride fell.
"What was that for?" Pride hissed.
"This!" Envy exclaimed and snatched the key out of Pride's hand and ran.
Lust helped Pride up, and they both ran after Envy.
Greed had seen all of this go down and jumped out of the water. If he and Envy could get to Al first both holding the key, they would win the challenge. He caught up to Lust and Pride and was able to get in front of them.
"Al!" Greed yelled.
Al turned around to see all four Homunculi running at him.
Envy turned around, and Greed grabbed on to the key. Both of them stood in front of Al holding the key.
"Congratulations, Envy and Greed, you have won this challenge!" Al cheered.
"What are you kidding me?" Pride complained. "They stole the key from me!"
"Do you have any proof?" Envy laughed.
Lust narrowed her eyes and hissed, "Well, once I get into the final three, you're gonna wish you hadn't cheated."
Al quietly spoke, "Well.. um.. now Lust and Pride you have to participate in a sudden death battle."
Lust and Pride nodded and went to the marked spot on the beach.
"The rules are," Al explained. "the first one to step out of the rectangle you are standing in loses. You may do anything to win."
"So I can use these?" Lust smiled extending her fingernails.
"Yes," Al said backing up. "You may use your ultimate spear."
Lust smiled, convinced there was no way she was going to lose.
"Go!" Al announced the start of the match.
Pride had dodged some of Lust's attacks, and Lust had dodged some of Pride's attacks. This sudden death battle went on for about 15 minutes when, finally, Pride had stepped out of the rectangle.
"I'm sorry Pride, you have been eliminated," Al frowned as Pride got on a boat and left the island.
Then Al turned back to the three finalists. "Congratulations! You're the final three homunculi!"
Lust glared at the two boys, "Game over, boys."
Envy laughed and shape-shifted into Lust, "Game over boys," Envy-Lust laughed and did a hair flip.
"Stop mocking me!" Lust demanded. However, to stop the fight from happening, Al dismissed all the homunculi to their tents.
Greed was so happy that Envy had done that awful trick to Pride. Greed was reflecting on the competition when Lust came into his tent.
"Hey, Lust." Greed welcomed her. "What's up?"
Lust frowned and motioned him to come outside. Greed looked around and Envy was already out there.
"Didn't Al say to go to our tents?" Greed asked.
Envy hissed back, "Look!"
Greed looked out into the distance, and he couldn't believe his eyes. There was a boat on the water, and it was coming this way.
"Al!" Greed yelled.
Al came running out of his tent.
"What is it?" He asked.
"Do you know why a boat is coming this way?" said Greed.
"No, let's call my brother," Al quickly dialed his brother's number.
"Oh, hello Al," a voice said, but the voice had been altered.
Al nervously spoke into the phone, "Um, hi where is my brother?"
"Oh Edward!?" the voice laughed. "Well he is a little tied up at the moment."
Al almost dropped the phone. A picture was sent that showed Ed with tape on his mouth and his hands and feet tied.
"Brother!" Al yelled.
"Who are you?" Envy hissed into the phone.
"Well, you will soon see," the voice laughed and hung up the phone.
"BROTHER!" Al yelled once more and fell to his knees.
All the homunculi stared at the boat. All they could do was wait until it arrived.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter. XD Sorry if Pride was your favorite. Who do you think is coming to the island? And who do you want to see be the final two? Thanks to Victoria Grace for editing my fanfictions. Stay tuned for the next chapter. Thanks for reading. ~Fawfulrox
