Author's Note: It's taking longer to write chapters because I'm running out of ideas, so don't wonder why I'm taking so long to write a chapter. I hope you've all enjoyed this story so far because I'm putting a lot of effort in this story than my others. Also, this chapter - to me at least - seems to be short...Oh well. Plus, I'm nearing the end of this story soon!~ Thanks to all who read this story and more thanks to those who reviewed and added this story as their favourites.

CHAPTER SIX

A Finishing Plan - When It Nears The End

"I seriously can't believe this," Envy muttered.

It was about 3 hours after the raid. Envy could hear Ed's noisy snoring from the other bedroom next to him. Finally, after Ed had gone to sleep, Envy could finally flee from the hotel. But how was he going to do it? Was Ed a deep sleeper, or not? Well, Envy had to try it and see what happens. Plus, he had to report to Al and tell him exactly what Ed had told him when they reached the hotel:

"I can't believe that my stupid brother would actually do that to me!" Ed roared once they reached the hotel.

Envy nodded. "He's gone too far," he replied. "I don't know what we should do now. Do you think that he will launch another ambush on us?"

Ed didn't seem to hear Envy, for he shouted, "That freaking bitch! I'm going to hunt him down and he will feel my wrath!" Ed stomped to the bedroom and shut the door, leaving Envy behind. Now Envy did not know what to do. If he left the hotel immediately, then Ed would notice sooner or later. So then he decided to leave after he was so sure that Ed was asleep and would not hear the creak of the door when Envy left the hotel. He quickly went to whatever he thought was Winry's bedroom and looked through the bookshelf. Perhaps there was some interesting information that he could give Al and the others (aka Team Revenge). After looking through random books, Envy noticed something that looked very interesting. A diary. He quickly took it out of the shelf and began to skim through it. Holy crap; she began this diary when she was a child, when the Ishbal war began. Envy smiled wickedly when he recalled that war, the war he started. Anyways, that wasn't what he was here for; to think about those good memories. After looking through a few pages, Envy found something very shocking. It said:

"I don't know why Ed keeps calling me continuously, like, everyday, asking whether I was alright. I mean, I can take care of myself, because I have some useful wrenches for whacking people on the head with (but they're not very heavy…). But it's nice to hear his voice. Anyways, Mr. Garfiel said I could have the day off because there was no work for me to do, so I decided to visit all the other automail shops. I couldn't believe that they had some awesome automail arms and legs that I've never seen before! I'm going to work harder from now on. While looking at the shops, I was instantly reminded of Ed. Well, that was weird, but I did anyway. I guess that's because he always gets his automail damaged and always comes back to me, showing up with a broken arm. After a while, I realised that he mostly gets his arm broken, not his leg. At least that doesn't mean extra work. I think I'm going off topic…hehe. So, after looking around everywhere, I was reminded of Ed. And then it struck me; I'm in love with him! That's all I'm going to say!

Winry Rockbell, Age 15"

Envy kept reading the second last sentence over and over again. Was Winry really fond of that shrimp? He's too short for anyone to like him! Mei didn't even like him after her first good look at him. That was such a good memory; Envy laughed when he recalled that. Suddenly, he heard Ed call, "Winry, come here." Envy self-consciously exited Winry's room and saw Ed sitting on the couch, still angry. "I'm going to get revenge."

"Are…you sure?" Envy asked.

"What do you mean?" Ed leaned forward. "Unless…you're actually Envy?"

"No way!" Envy quickly took out a wrench, and Ed shrank back. Envy stifled a laugh. Duh, he was Envy; the jealous one. "I just think that…what if Al and the others are prepared for us? Then our plan is just a total fail, and then we're done."

Ed stared at Envy for a moment, then replied, "…Okay. I kind of get you. But what if we discuss this plan properly? Then we'd probably succeed and then I can murder that brother of mine…literally."

Envy sighed. Okay, he'd listen, and tell Al the plan so that they would be prepared. "So…what is your plan?"

"I haven't thought of it yet."

Envy almost choked. "Then you should have just thought about the plan before you told me that you wanted revenge on Al and about plans."

"Whatever…"

"Okay…well, it's late now, so I'm going to sleep." That was a total lie, but Envy desperately wanted to get out of the hotel and meet up with Team Revenge. He turned around to go when suddenly…

Ed hugged him!

Envy was about to faint. He was about to yell "Who the hell do you think you're hugging you *!$ing shrimp!" when he realised that he was shape-shifted as Winry, so he had to keep his mouth shut. Instead, Envy quickly stopped the hug and said, "You can do that another day." He quickly ran towards Winry's bedroom and shut the door. That was sooo embarrassing! Ed just hugged Envy; the one that Ed practically hated the most! "Hurry up and go to sleep, you idiot!" Envy hissed quietly.

Envy quickly left the hotel – glad that Ed had not woken up and wondered what the hell was going on – and ran off to the alleyway, where Al told him to meet them. He quickly shape-shifted back to his old form (when I say old, I don't mean by "age old" but as in, his original form. And also, he has such a bad taste in fashion…sigh). But they weren't there. 'Damn that piece of junk!' Envy thought. But at that moment, the suit of armour turned up. "Yo Envy," he said cheerfully, even though he looked really bored. "So…what happened in the hotel?"

"Not much," Envy replied. "Though…" And he explained everything that happened. He reported about Ed's anger and the diary entry that Winry wrote, but he didn't want to talk about the fact that Ed hugged him. They were sooo not gay! It was Ed's fault; not Envy's. But in the end, Envy decided to talk about it. "Sooo…uhh…" Envy had no idea how to start. "Well…"

"Hurry up and talk about it!" Al snapped. "I haven't got all night. Well…actually, I do…hehe…"

"Whatever." Envy rolled his eyes. "Because Ed fonds Winry so much…he hugged me."

Al burst out laughing. "You guys are so gay!"

"WE ARE NOT GAY!" Envy shrieked. "It's Ed's fault; so not mine! It's not like I asked him to, anyway!"

"Ooooh…" Al started to roll on the floor laughing (rofl).

Author: Wait…can a suit of armour roll on the floor?

"It's not funny!"

"Yes it is!"

"NO IT ISN'T!"

"YES IT IS!"

"SHUT UP YOU TWO!"

Both Al and Envy turned around to see Maria glaring at both of them. "You're going to wake the whole neighbourhood with all that screeching." She turned to Envy. "It doesn't matter whether you're gay or not." Envy snarled, but Maria ignored him and glared at Al. "And you – talking about more revenge and evilness and cats. Is that all you talk about?"

"Uhh…yeah?"

"Sheesh!"

"Just go to sleep," Envy muttered. "I'm getting sleepy myself. Plus, what's Ed going to do when he finds out that there is no Winry waiting for him in the morning? Wouldn't he feel suspicious and stuff and suddenly know that the one he was talking to was actually Ed? Then what are we going to do? And he wants revenge on us, but I don't know the plan yet, and-"

"You fret and worry too much like an old lady, man," said Maria, laughing. Envy glared at Maria, but she swept on, "We'll have to talk to Al, won't we? Hmm?" she looked at Al expectantly, as though she wanted him to say something. Al fidgeted with his fingers for a while and replied, "Well…I haven't really thought about that…and-"

"I don't want Ed to hug me again!" Envy interrupted Al. "That is the last thing I ever want to see happen…EVER!"

"Okay! But…maybe you should return to the hotel…Only for a while!" he added when Envy was about to land his fist on Al. Even though it probably wasn't going to hurt as much, Al didn't want to waste time fall on the ground, stand up and probably find his head and put it back on.

Envy sighed resignedly. "Fine…" he answered, "But you'll regret this moment, okay?"

"You won't regret it," Al promised. "I'll make sure of that."

Maria stared at Al. "You have a plan?"

"Yes," Al replied. "And a good one too."

I hope the story met your expectations! Please review!

"And a good one too," Al declared.

"Then what is it?" Envy demanded. He suddenly felt the urge to you-know-what {Can Homunculi do you-know-what?} so he said, "I need to go."

"Wait! Wait! I'm going to tell you!"

"Then hurry up" Maria growled.

"Okay…" Al stopped talking and looked thoughtful.

"There's no time to think!" Author snapped. "Envy needs to _ so let him do his private stuff immediately, okay?"

"Wait! Wait! I got-"

"You got nothing!"

"Geez, I'm going to go to bed," Maria sighed, leaving.

"I'll tell him now then so that-"

"I just did it." Both Author and Al turned around to see that Envy did his _ on the floor for there was a puddle of _ where he was standing.

"THAT IS SO GROSS!" Author shouted. "I'M SO LEAVING! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT MARIA LEFT JUST WHEN YOU HAD TO DO THAT! I SHOULD HAVE GONE WITH HER!"

"YUCK!" Al left with Author, leaving Envy alone.

"Meh," he said.
