Envy awoke less than a minute later, and tackled the retreating form of Ed, flipping him around, locking his hands around his throat and placing his face less than an inch away from the Fullmetal's.

"Hohenheim. When did he leave?"

"Wh-" Ed struggled against Envy, to no avail.

"WHEN DID HE LEAVE?"

"Wh-when I was three and Al was nearly two…"

Envy released his fierce grip. "I had him…I had him for longer than you…even if I don't remember," he said more to himself. "I had him for eighteen years…"

He got up and left, leaving the older Elric brother lying on the floor, trying to figure out exactly what he'd just seen.

It was only until Envy was back in the city under Central that he looked in a mirror.
