Chapter 9

The road home

"Kochi!"Envy whispered as they got to a ruined building. It was tall and lonely, the very building where that dreaded Nazi woman leader had used the transmutation circle to get to Amestris and nearly destroyed it. The circle had been long destroyed though and only a huge hole in the ground remained. Envy, was not leading the Elric brothers to that room, but to another, taking a shortcut through a dark corridor, only lighted with a small lantern Al had been so thoughful to bring. It was the night after they had rescued Envy, or should I say that they rescued him near dawn that night.

It was still only 11 at night, and they went so late because it was quiet, with only a few mice scurrying around.

"Envy, where are we going? I've never been to this part before."Ed whispered loudly. He was aware of the danger even if this was a deserted building, "The Nazis have a base somewhere else. Not here!"

"Shut up!"Envy growled in a furious whisper, "You'll see! I have to show you and Alphonse something I found before!"

"And by the way Envy. I forgot to ask this before but how did you get back to your true form?"Al whispered under his breath. The corridor was getting wider as they went and they all scrunched up against the walls.

"I said, you'll see!!"Envy grunted impatiently, refraining himself grudginly, from talking too loudly.

They reached a small hangar where there were rack storages and large wooden boxes. Ed moved his hand slightly over the wooden boxes. Ammo for the guns was stored in there. Most of the boxes' overcloths were ripped or moved to the side and the things inside were quite visable to the three in the hangar. SMG and rifle ammo, hand gun bullets, all sorts! But one box contained something different than the others. Needle tips poked out dangerously from the box. Al would have been pocked if not for Ed with the lantern. He gently removed a needle from the box and read a small sticker on its side. Envy pulled it away and threw it back into the box, tip first.

"Be careful with those. Those are the needles that they used on me to weaken me. I eventually got them out but they weakened me a whole lot. They're poison needles."Envy whispered to both of the brothers. Ed immediately stepped away from the box. They returned to look at the contents on shelves and hanging on hooks. A few rifles, shotguns, handguns and other firearms were piled on top of each other, messily organized on the shelves. Envy grabbed 2 handguns from the shelves and tossed them to Ed and Al.

"Go get some ammo from those boxes over there. You'll need it,"he advised. They did.

"What about you?"Al whispered. Ed moved the lantern towards the box with pistol ammo.

"It's okay,"Envy said, keeping is voice down the most he could, "I can shapeshift."

Al looked over to the things hanging on hooks. Cloaks, boots and uniform were hung from there. Al grabbed a pair of boots close to his size and shoved them on. They were not loud or heavy boots. He gave Ed a pair. He also grabbed 3 cloaks and tossed 2 to Envy and Ed. They had to make use of what was here.

Envy, however, was looking in a corner. A few pairs of jetboots were placed on the ground. He tossed the to Ed and Al.

"Take these instead,"he whispered,"since you can't shapeshift. And I can't carry you since my weight doesn't change. You guys will be too heavy."

The two boys nodded and shrugged them on. Envy grabbed an additional lantern from a shelf and 2 pots of oil.

"We should go."Al muttered. They opened the hangar door and headed out.

It ended up outside, on the balcony.

"Shoot! "Envy whispered,"I didn't take this route!Keep your heads down and turn off your lanterns! follow each other's breaths!"

They did as they were told. There wasn't any other sound apart from their silent breaths and crickets chirping. Ed slowly and quietly opened the door inside.

The trio entered as fast as they could, turning on their lanterns almost immediately. They were in a tall square tower that seemed to reach up 100 feet. Envy transformed into a small snake-like dragon and drifted up a few inches.

"Activate your jetboots!"

The brothers switched on the buttons on their boots and drifted upwards, following Envy. A blue light shone from the top of the tower, out a small hole that could only fit a human. Envy quickly transformed into his homunculus self while Ed and Al easily slipped through the hole. There were walls around the top of the tower, tall enough for a normal sized adult human to stand. How tall is this tower anyways? Ed thought.

A giant transmutation circle was drawn on the side of the tower, near where Envy was standing.

"Just touch it. I think you'll regain your use of alchemy."he said, grinning. It was somewhat and evil grin but his eyes were glittering. Ed knew he could trust him. He knew it.

The brothers reached out and touched the circle lightly.

AN:Wow. I made this up on the spot and I think this was one of my best chapters. Again, lots of description. I think my best chapters are this one and chapter 7:stop.

Hope you all review
