Edward observed the confrontation between the two boys. He felt bad for them. Their mother was worse than his father. Maybe humans weren't so different from mermaids.

The younger brother seemed to be close to Edward's age. Edward thought his spiky green hair was similar to seaweed. Why would he wear his hear like that? Edward pondered.

Envy leaned back over the safety rail of the ship and Greed went back to helping the crew sail the ship. Envy let out a dramatic sigh. "I'm never going to be happy." he muttered, thinking no one would hear him.

Edward frowned. "I know exactly how you feel..." He replied, not meaning to say it out loud. His eyes widened and he clamped a hand over his mouth.

Envy turned he gaze down to the water where he thought he heard someone reply. Upon not seeing anything there, he nervously chuckled and mumbled "I'm going crazy," under his breath.

Edward was grateful that the darkness concealed him. Had the other boy seen him, he could've been in a lot of trouble.

Edward continued to admire the human boy. He was definitely attractive, even with seaweed hair. His violet eyes were impossible to ignore. They contrasted his pale skin. He was much paler than his brother and mother. More than anything, though, Edward admired his legs. He wanted legs more than anything else!

The water suddenly got violent. The boat started rocking wildly with the waves. There must've been a storm nearby. Edward was used to rough tides and thought nothing of it.

Envy, on the other hand, was clinging to the safety rail for dear life. With a swift jerk, Envy was tossed into the violent waters.

In an attempt to call for help, Envy swallowed a few mouthfuls of salt water. It stung his lungs. He began to panic. When a particularly big wave dragged him under, Envy gasped, swallowing even more salt water and went into shock. He couldn't move and had no idea where the surface was. In his state of shock, he was dragged down by the rip current.

At first, Ed didn't realize what had happened. When he suddenly heard people calling for the boy he had just moments ago been admiring, he panicked. When he saw Envy go under, he was pulled out of his shock and dove into the waves in an attempt to save the boy's life. He didn't care if he got caught. He knew what it was like to lose a family member and didn't want the boy's family to have to go through what he did when his mother had been killed.

Edward swam after Envy's unconscious body. The human would surely drown if Ed didn't get him to the surface soon. He grabbed Envy around the waist and pulled him towards the surface.

When Ed reached the surface with Envy, he could no longer see the boat. Ed made the decision to bring Envy to the nearest land, which the boat had been sailing towards before the storm hit.


When Envy woke up, he was laying on the beach. The sun was just above the horizon. He laid there for a while before the events from last night replayed in his head. He sat up quickly and took in his surroundings. How the hell did I wind up on the beach? He heard a splash to his right and turned to look in that direction.

Edward peeked out from behind a rock. He wanted to make sure the green-hair boy was okay. When said boy looked in his direction, Ed his back behind the rock.

"I know you're there!" Envy called to Ed. "I saw you." Envy frowned when he received no response.

Ed's heartbeat rapidly increased. He couldn't expose himself to the other boy. Father was right. Ed worried. Humans are dangerous!

"You're the one who saved me, aren't you?" Envy asked quietly.

"Yes... I am." Edward replied in a soft whisper.

Envy stood up and tried to walk towards the rocks where the other boy was hiding. Unfortunately, his legs where still weak and the sand shifted under his feet. Envy fell to his knees. "Listen... I'm weak. I'm not going to hurt you. Could you please come out from behind the rock?" Envy practically begged. He didn't realize how desperate he sounded until after the words had left his mouth.

"I can't..." Ed said just barely loud enough for Envy to hear. "I'm glad you're okay, though."

Envy was about to reply when he heard a loud splash. He knew the other boy was gone. Where could he have possibly gone? Envy was curious. He figured that the other had to live somewhere near here.

Edward swam out to sea. If he hurried, he'd be back to the palace by midday. His father was going to be furious. Edward tried to think of an excuse for his disappearance, but to no avail. The best he could come up with was that he was exploring underwater caves and had gotten lost. Edward also sincerely hoped that Roy would be gone by the time he returned.


Greed had been torn apart over the loss of his younger brother. Even if they fought constantly, Envy was still his little brother! It didn't help that their mother seemed like she could care less about the situation of Envy's death. Greed started blaming himself. He went for a walk along the beach to try and calm himself down.

When he spotted Envy sitting in the sand staring off into the horizon, he thought he was hallucinating. "E-envy?" He questioned in disbelief. Envy turned to face his older brother. "Envy!" Greed shouted and practically glomped him.

"Greed, calm the f*ck down!" Envy shouted, startled by the elder's actions. He was being clung to and didn't appreciate the invasion of personal space.

"Calm down?" Greed pulled back and stared in shock at Envy's reaction. "You want me to calm down? I thought you were dead, Envy! I'm not going to calm down!" tears began to stream uncharacteristically down Greed's face.

Envy murmured an apology and returned his brother's affection, albeit reluctantly. It was kind of nice to think that Greed actually cared about him, but Envy's mind was on the boy that had saved him and then disappeared.


For some strange reason, I found this chapter harder to write than the previous two.
