Again, sorry for the delay! Things got more hectic than I was expecting this semester. But I'm back now! Summer break! So other than working a lot, I have a lot more free time! To try and make up for this, I will be writing longer chapters! I have no intention of ignoring this story completely. I want to finish it. Also, WARNING: NON-CON, GRAPHIC, SEXUAL CONTENT, are in this chapter. I have it bolded, so if you are not comfortable reading it, just skip past it. ^^ All you will be missing is the details. Anything important, I will tie back into the story after.
So enough rambling, and back to what you actually came here for!
The young alchemist lay numb and limp on the wooden table. He knew what was coming. More beatings. More starvation. More torture. The dry air burned his throat and lungs with each breath. Edward would watch his chest rise and fall with each breath.
One. Two. Three. Four. . . .
He would count until he passed out. Since he couldn't control his body, he was left only with his mind. Edward focused on anything he could to try and distract himself from the continuous torture and pain he had endured. This would be no different. But why did he feel suddenly more panicked? Was it because this man before him said the torture would be different? Different how? Or was it because he knew the 'man' standing before him was not human? Envy of all people nonetheless. Envy walked around the table, eyeing the young blond up and down; a grin from ear to ear. Fear and panic rose causing knots in his stomach. Edward felt nauseous. But there was nothing he could do. He was helpless once again. He knew it. Edward no longer tried to fight the paralysis either. There was no point.
"No one is coming for you Fullmetal. They've given up. The military has announced you dead." A sharp pain pierced through Ed's chest.
'No. I'm alive! They wouldn't give up that quickly. . . wait. . . how long have I been here?' Thoughts raced through Ed's mind. Ed's eyes slowly glanced around the familiar room.
"You're becoming the perfect pet Pipsqueak. Quiet, well silent actually." He laughed. "It's nice to watch you law so perfectly still. Your eyes show how you really feel. It's so beautiful to watch the panic rise and the tears build up from the pain. You face twitches ever so slightly before you pass out. Uuuuggghhh! It's absolutely delicious to watch you suffer!" Envy practically is dancing around the room, through his arms in the air spastically. He really enjoyed watching Ed suffer so many times. Edward felt like his heart was about to burst through his chest. He honestly thought he was going to have a heart attack. Panic had taken over and Edward began to try and resist the drugs. "It's futile to struggle. It's not like you are going to leave here alive anyways. Just give up." He grabbed Edward by the jaw, squeezing tightly. Dull pain radiated from his jaw, but Edward ignored it. "It's finally my turn. Now. . . how shall I break you? Oh! I know!" Envy quickly ran out of the room. Ed attempted to look in the direction of the door, but the numbness was in complete control. He struggled against it. Focusing on small muscles, he tried to twitch his toes, fingers, nose, anything. Nothing. The sounds of footsteps pulled him from his concentration.
"Brother?!" a high-pitched voice echoed from the hall. Ed knew the voice immediately. He tried desperately to move again. "Brother!" Al's voice rang in the room. He came running over to the table Ed was limply laying on. Edward stared into his brother's eyes.
'Why is Al here?! Did they find me? Am I safe?!' Ed wanted to smile at the sight of his brother so badly. There was also a strong urge to cry. If he could control himself, he's not sure which emotion would be exposed first. Sorrow. Anger. Fear. Happiness. There were so many emotions Edward was experiencing at this moment.
"The military said you were dead! I knew you weren't! I just knew it!" Alphonse reached his arms out and touched Ed's bare skin. His hands were cool and felt nice against his burning skin. Tears began to well up in Ed's eyes and Al opened his mouth to speak but was abruptly stopped. A loud sound rang through the old concrete room. Edward was suddenly sprayed with something warm. His ears rang horribly, causing Ed's head to pound. He looked up at Al through blurry vision. Something was wrong. He blinked twice. Realization struck hard as his heart felt like it stopped.
'ALPHONSE!' Edward screamed silently. His brother fell to the ground. 'ALPHONSE! ALPHONSE!' Ed continued to silently scream for his brother. Tears began to pour from his eyes. This was a first. He could weep. Edward fought hard against the drugs once again. 'I have to save him! I can't lose him too! No! NO! NO!' A small whimper escaped from Ed's mouth. Ed squeezed his eyes shut tightly, trying to imagine this was all a dream when the other voice returned.
"Oh! Tears! How wonderful!" Al stood by Ed's side once again. He placed his hand on Ed's cheek and caressed it softly, smearing the blood. "This is going to be more fun than I expected. Let's see. . . who else shall we bring in?" Envy was almost jumping for joy. The tears stopped when Ed realized this is what he meant by a different form of torture. He's focusing solely on emotional and mental abuse.
"It's not real. Don't let him get to you Ed." Another male's voice rang through Ed's head. "Focus. There's nothing he can do to you that's any worse than you've already been through. He's just messing with you. Focus. Breathe." The calm and friendly voice spoke gently to him.
'Hughes? . . . I must be finally losing it. . . I don't know how much more of this I can take. . .'
"It's because you're weak." another voice, this one much harsher.
'No, I'm not. I just. . . I can't do anything!'
"No. You've given up."
'No, I haven't you stupid Bastard!'
"Then prove it!"
Edward knew he could handle this. Alphonse was not actually here. No matter who Envy decided to use against him, Ed knew they weren't real.
"What's this? Have you already calmed down Pipsqueak? Aww. That's no fun." Envy pouted. "Guess I'll have to move onto plan B then." He added with a sly tone in his voice. He slowly slid his fingers down, tracing the veins visible on Ed's throat down to his chest. "I'm going to break you." He reminded the blond. "I bet you've never experienced this."
Envy massaged Ed's chest, paying extra attention to his light pink nipples. Anger began to take over Ed.'You've already taken me hostage. Taken my freedom. Tortured me. Abused me. No more! I can't. . .' Rage and fear competed against each other. He knew where this was going. He needed him to stop. He had to do something!
"Oh come on Pipsqueak. No defiance? I'll take your silence as permission then." Envy chuckled loudly, while running his hands over Edward's exposed body. He crawled onto the table and straddled Ed. A slight twitch of Ed's forehead caught the homunculus's attention. Another grin. He leaned down and nipped at one of Ed's nipples, pinching the other between two fingers. Edward squeezed his eyes shut, attempting still to fight. Envy's other hand trailed down Ed's stomach and stopping on his inner thigh to message it.
'Focus dammit! On anything! Mustang! Alphonse! Someone! Anyone! Please help me!' Ed had begun to resort to begging. His attacker's hand grazed between Ed's legs waivered his concentration significantly. Another violent panic attack took over as he was thrown back into reality. A shuddered gasp escaped Ed's mouth as when the hand between his legs became more eager. Ed's head pulsed painfully. Ed was so weak. So tired. All he could do was cling to his willpower and hope for it to end quickly. The hand tightened around Ed's shaft. An unwelcome twinge shot through him as Envy began to stroke him. Edward didn't like how his body was betraying him. He didn't want this. Envy licked up Ed's throat, nipping at the tender skin until he left marks. He moved up and took advantage of Ed's mouth being partially open. He captured Ed's lips with his own, and thrust his tongue deep into Edwards' mouth. He played in the wet cavern, swirling his own tongue around Ed's. Edward felt sick and would have vomited if he could. Edward managed to bit down on Envy's tongue, however not as hard as he would have liked.
"You little shit! I see you are gaining a bit of mobility back. Guess I don't have time to play nice with you." Edward let out a soft grunt of disapproval. "Here. . . I know what will make you satisfied." With those words, Envy transmuted himself. Slowly the glow of alchemy rose up his body, changing him into a very familiar raven haired man. "Now, let's continue shall we?" he spoke.
'Don't use him! Not his face! Not his voice! Please!' Edward pleaded silently. 'Not . . . Mustang. . . please.' Mustang chuckled as he undid his pants and dropped them to his knees.
"I know you've been dreaming of this moment Fullmetal. Just enjoy it." Roy smirked as he began to stroke himself slowly. Edward glanced at the man before him. Edward admitted to himself he was interested in Mustang, but this wasn't Mustang. Nor would Mustang ever have feelings for another male, especially him.
Mustang moaned softly, pulling Ed back to reality once again. The other hand returned to Edward's shaft. He matched the speed he was stroking himself. Edward's body betrayed him again as another twinge of pleasure shot through his body. "You're so hard Ed…ward." Mustang moaned his name, which alone made Ed's heart flutter.
'No! Don't listen to him! It's not him!' Edward argued with himself. He could see Ed's confliction and decided it was enough playing nice. Mustang placed his hands on Edward's thighs and spread his legs wide. Edward let out another quiet grunt. This only made Envy chuckle. He brought his fingers up to his mouth and sucked on them slowly. He was enjoying watching the torment beginning to show itself on Edward's face. He brought his fingers down to Edward's entrance, pushing his pointer finger against it. Ed's eyes widened in fear as tears threatened to escape his eyes once more. He managed to let out a small, almost pleading cry. His muffled scream only encourage Envy to continue. He roughly worked his finger into Edward's hole, causing another muffled scream from Ed. The tears broke free and beaded down his hot cheeks, dripped into his lose hair under him. Edward was slowly gaining control and was almost able to make a fist. His toes wiggled with each attempt to escape. Mustang's finger began to move in and out of the boy, causing little sounds of pain with each thrust.
Before he was ready, Mustang pressed another finger against his hole, pushing in roughly. After only a few moments, inserted a third finger. Edward began to wiggle with each thrust.
"Come on Edward. . . purr for me." Mustang teased twitching his finger deep inside him, hitting that sweet spot. A loud gasp came from Ed and his fingers and toes tensed. "See. I knew you'd like it." Mustang hit the spot again and again. Edward hated how much pleasure he was experiencing. He felt like he was going to cum soon. He could feel the pressure building inside him. He didn't want to. He hated himself. Edward began to pant as he came close to climax, but was denied the release as Mustang removed his fingers from his anus. "One moment my dear little Edward." He walked over to one of the other tables and grabbed a thing of rope. He quickly tied Edwards hands together and swung his arms behind his head for support. Placing his hands on Edward's thighs, he lifted the young man off the table and onto his lap. Mustang's legs hung off the edge of the table. He placed Edward's legs behind his back. "Now for the real fun Ed." He chuckled and placed his hands on Edward's ass, lifting up over his lap. Holding the man with only one hand, he grabbed his own shaft and held it in place as he slowly towards Edward down onto it. His tip pressing against his entrance, dripping with precum and desperately wanting in. Edward's hole twitched with anticipation.
"Pl…s.. don…" Edward mumbled. His plead went unheard as he thrusted hard into Edward's ass. Edward's head dropped back as he let out a painful scream. Mustang gripped Ed's hips tightly, sliding him up and down on himself. Mustang let out a moan. Edward's voice followed. The pain turning to pleasure with each thrust. Faster. Harder. Deeper. The thrusts became more fierce as time went on. The pleasure reached a peek and Edward could no longer contain it; he came. Seeing this pleased the other man greatly but he was far from finished. He picked Edward up and dropped him onto the floor. He quickly rolled him over onto his stomach. Grabbing his hips, he lifted Ed's ass into the air and thrusted violently back into him. Edward screamed again. A sound mixed with pain and pleasure. Once inside the boy again, he grabbed a fist full of blond hair and pulled Edward's head off the ground, allowing himself to pound into him harder. He pulled on Ed's hair each time he thrusted in, causing Edward to thrust back into his cock. Ed couldn't help but moan. With Mustang's other hand, he reached under the blond and grabbed his now hardened erection and began to pump, matching his thrusting speed. Pleasure built up again quickly and Edward felt like he was going to cum again. "Ple…s… Stop…" Edward begged between moans.
"Sounds like you're enjoying it though." Mustang's voice chimed. "What's my name?" He teased. Edward panted and shook his head. "Say my name! Call to your dear General." Edward clenched the all the muscles he could in defiance.
'No. I can't give in.' Edwards panting continued.
The man leaned over Edward's body, lips inches from Ed's ear and whispered, "Please Edward. I lov-"
"Don't!" Edward spat with all his might. Mustang grinned widely.
"Out with it!" He shouted as he rammed himself as roughly into Edward as he could, causing a agonizing twinge to shoot through Edward's body. Edward felt as if his body was splitting in two. The burning sensation was becoming too much for him to handle. He whimpered as tears streamed down his face. He knew he was losing. Another painful thrust followed by another whimper. Mustang grabbed Edward's knotted blond locks and pulled back fast. There was going to be no remorse from the raven haired man for this. Mustang would hate him. Call him weak, a coward, and worthless, but he couldn't endure it any longer.
Edward moaned, "Must…ang!", loudly as he climaxed again. This pushed the other to his climax as well. This imposter had won. He released his seed deep into Edwards. With a deep sigh of relief, he pushed Edward back to the ground. His hot seed dripped from Edwards ass as Envy was no longer filling the hole.
"I'll come back for you later. Don't try anything." Envy chimed cheerfully, shifting back to his normal appearance. He left the room, leaving Edward panting and crying on the cum covered floor alone. Edward's naked body lay in wreck as he began to convulse.
"I'm so…rry… Must..ang…," Edward mumbled before he fell unconscious.
Mustang, Alphonse and Crowley sat around the table, watching Edward carefully. His chest rose and fell slowly. Golden eyes shot open suddenly as he sat up with a deep gasp. Alphonse immediately stood and placed his hand on his brother's shoulder.
"Glad you're awake Ed. How are you feeling?" Al asked, almost cheerfully. Edward looked around confused.
"Where are we?"
"We are in Xerxes." Mustang chimed in. It was hard not reaching out to the young man. He wanted to hold him. He knew it was a bad idea for two reasons, (1) he didn't trust Crowley, and (2) Edward has moments of amnesia after having an episode. Edward looked over at Mustang and made a weird expression.
"I guess I should thank you for helping me back there." Ed snorted. Mustang raised a brow.
"You guess? Next time I'll just leave you to die in the desert then. How about that?" Mustang stood and walked away from the others.
"Wait!" Edward shouted. Mustang turned and waited.
"Yes?" Mustang asked.
"Um. . ." Edward fumbled. He didn't know what to say. He didn't know why he even called out. After a long pause, Edward spoke quietly. "Thank you General."
The men informed Edward of the current situation. Edward remained silent as all the information bounced around in his head. 'I'm going to die. . .' Alphonse could see the look of torment and horror on Edward's face.
"Brother? Are you hurting?" Alphonse leaned closer to Ed, peering into Ed's dull golden eyes.
"Somethings wrong." Edward answered, staring at his lap. Alphonse waited in silence for his brother to continue.
"Out with it." Mustang interjected. Golden orbs widened as the phrase sent chills down his spine. He slowly glanced up to meet the Generals gaze. Fear began to set in. They could all see it.
"Brother?" Al placed his hands on Edwards shoulders. "What is it? What's wrong?"
"I don't know." Edward in a confused panic.
"Edward?" Mustang spoke questionably.
"Don't!" Edward shouted. "Don't say my name!" Edward quickly stood and backed away from the others.
"What's wrong Ed?!" Al asked, stepping towards Ed. Edward shook his head and darted from the room, leaving everyone else confused.
"He's alive." Crowley mumbled, taking down the detail in his notebook.
"Excuse me?" Mustang questioned.
"He had a negative reaction to you. Has this happened before?" He continued jotting down notes. Mustang just shook his head. "Something about his name. Have you spoken his name before? Meaning recently."
"Numerous times over the last few weeks, I'm sure."
"Then he's alive." Crowley stated. Both Al and Roy stared confused at the older man. "His body must be close. I believe his sole is switching between the two bodies. While he may not recall anything while in the other body, it's possible for the body to respond to situations in accordance with experiences."
"He looked terrified." Mustang mumbled.
"No sir. That wasn't fear." Al added, looking down the hall where his brother had disappeared. "That was regret. I know my brother better than anyone. Something happened. He's ashamed. The same look in his eyes. Nina. Hughes. Mom. . ."
"So something has happened just now? With me? How?" Mustang's voice displayed his frustration too clearly.
"Ah. That's the question General. My guess, his body is near, hence the traumatic breakdown earlier. We need to find him. If we lose Edward, we won't be able to find his real body."
"We?" Crowley nodded. "I'm not going to let an innocent young man suffer like this. I want to help." He nodded at Mustang, awaiting approval. Mustang, still untrusting, agreed to the extra help. He was an expert after all. He may be the only one who can truly save Ed. The three men quickly went to locate the missing boy. Thankfully Edward hadn't gone too far. He was sitting on the stairway at the entrance of the temple.
"Brother? Are you alright?"
"Leave me alone Al." Edward pushed his brother away from him. Mustang placed his hand on Edward's shoulder without saying a word. Edward still tensed up. "Don't . . . Don't touch me." Mustang ignored his demand.
"Sorry, but pretty sure I don't follow your orders. Get up. We're leaving." Mustang ordered. Edward said nothing. He remained still. "Now Fullmetal!" Mustang grabbed Edward by the arm and pulled him onto his feet, getting a small whimper from Ed. Mustang was angry. How could he fear him now? He hadn't done anything to him. He was with this Ed the whole time. He couldn't have done anything to him. It wasn't possible. "That's an order." Fiery passion burned in his dark, coal eyes. "I don't know what is going on but let me make myself very clear. I've done nothing to you to warrant such a look. I would never intentionally hurt you. In anyway. I care about you Ed. So, quit looking at me like that dammit!" Mustang wrapped his arms around Ed's shoulders and pulled him against himself. Mustang was beginning to sound almost desperate as he spoke again. "Please Ed. I can take the looks and comments from everyone else. Not from you. Please." Edward's arm shook as he raised them, hesitantly wrapping them around his superior. Edward buried his face in Roy's chest and gripped his jacket firmly in his hands.
"I lo-"
"Don't." Edward interrupted quickly. There was passion burning in Edward's eyes as he glanced up at Mustang. "Say it when you find me."
