Hello again! I am sorry that the last chap was so short. I thought it would be longer on fanfic's format than it was sooo I kinda bombed on that. I am really hoping that this chap will be even longer, so yay! The evil crack bunnies have taken over my mind so I'm not sure if they plan to add some crack into this fic or not…most likely they will.

Okay little snippets of info before you read:

Chapter two: Arrival

It was five till noon and Envy, Iris, and Ed were all making there way down to the Fuhrers office. Ed was sulking because he had to wear the uniform and Iris and Envy were arguing about something who knows what (1). Arriving on time to a mission briefing was a team effort when it came to these three. For one thing, if Ed new about it the day before, it would take two people and someone threatening to call Winry (2). If he DIDN'T know about it then all you had to do was tie him up and carry him to Mustang.

They had arrived about two minutes after noon so they were a bit late, Mustang was not happy with this. He had been having a conversation with the most oddly dressed woman the trio had ever seen. She was wearing emerald green robes and a black traveling cloak; her graying chestnut hair was in a tight bun and she looked to be extremely old.

When the three opened the door Mustang sent them a heated glare and cut off mid sentence to point out the obvious, "Ah, it looks like my subordinates have arrived. I would like you three to meet Professor Minerva McGonagall, please introduce yourselves,"

Iris took a step forward in salute and in a business type way said, "I am First Lt. Iris Frasier the Aquas Alchemist and am right hand officer to Brigadier General Edward Elric." She stepped back and pushed Ed forward. He looked at her annoyed before saluting.

"I am Brigadier General Edward Elric the Full metal Alchemist and am in charge of the security of the fifth Laboratory." His voice was quieter than Iris' but it was able to be heard along with his annoyed tone. He stepped out of the salute and pushed Envy forward, much to the young (3) sins dismay.

"I am the Sin of Envy and Boyfriend of Brigadier General Chibi shrimp behind me." He said all this in a nonchalant voice, not noticing or exceedingly easily ignoring the fact that Ed's face turned crimson and McGonagall looked aghast at the fact that two males would have a relationship other than friendship or brotherhood. There was a moment when Iris had to hold Ed back and muffle his short rant while McGonagall returned her gaze to Mustang.

"What does he mean by 'Sin of Envy' Fuhrer…? Surely no one can actually be a sin…?" Her voice was wary, as if she was frightened by the answer she would get. He looked irritated that Envy had told her his full 'Name' because now he would have to explain this. But just as he was about to open his mouth to speak, he was cut off by the green haired Homunculus,

"I meant exactly what I said. I am the Sin of Envy, I am a created human, and I am a Homuculus. If you don't like it sho"- He was cut off be a hand muffling his mouth. He looked to his side to see that Ed had gotten free of Iris or that Iris had let go of Ed either way, Ed's auto-mail was closed firmly around Envy's jaw making it impossible to speak the least bit clearly. He glared at Ed but didn't struggle. Roy's eyes were wide with distress because he couldn't think of an excuse to tell the professor.

To everyone's relief, and McGonagall's confusion, Iris stepped forward and said, "Eheheh, well you see Professor, Envy's parents were very abusive in a way and when he was born they had hated him so much that they named him the 'Sin of Envy'. They kept telling him as a child that he was worthless and wasn't even human and loads of other things and sooner or later they ended up saying that he was a homunculus and he's basically lived with thinking he's worthless the entirety of his life." She said all this in only one breath and McGonagall looked pain stricken and absolutely ruffled. Envy looked happy, while Ed on the other hand was looking curiously at Envy, considering he still had his hand over Envy's mouth and the sin had a certain light in his eye.

McGonagall looked over at the sin with a pitying gaze for just a moment before her eyes hardened again and she looked back to mustang with a stern gaze, "Well, Fuhrer I will take the children with me," The three teenagers looked taken aback. "But first I need to know this young man's surname." She gestured toward Envy at the last bit and everyone in the room looked confused except for the one charcoal haired man.

"Oh yes, how rude of him, his surname is Van (4)," Envy looked enraged at this, but Mustang had to thank the heavens that Ed had gotten a lot stronger and could hold the sin back. "Now then, you four should hurry and catch your ride."

"We're not packed stupid." Ed graciously replied.

"Oh, you don't need to worry about your clothing," And with that she pulled out an odd stick and gave it a swish, two seconds later all of Ed's, Iris's, and Envy's clothing floated into the room in duffels. "Now, Mr. Mustang's right, we need to leave. Please hold onto this when I say three."

McGonagall had just pulled out, what looked to be, a hair brush from the pocket of her robes. She held it out while everyone looked confused. "Everyone grab a bag and, quickly now, grab hold of the brush. Hurry! 1….2….3!" And just like that all three of the teen Amestrians felt a hard tugging at their navel. Being pulled through a straw was not fun by their perspective.

Ed and Iris landed hard on the stone walkway of a small and tattered square garden, while Envy and Professor McGonagall landed neatly on their feet. Getting up annoyed, the two alchemists followed McGonagall, with Envy trailing behind, up a small path and a few stairs to a door that said number 12. McGonagall knocked once and immediately there was loud muffled screaming from the other side. The door opened hurriedly and the three Amestrians were pushed in quickly. The screaming continued until someone yelled and there were pained grunts and finally it stopped.

A man with shoulder length scraggly dark hair came walking irritably up the hallway muttering to himself about 'wretched mothers' and 'stupid heads of families'. Looking up he spotted the newcomers and welcomed them warmly, "Hello, I'm Sirius, and Minerva who might these three be..?" His eyes were lit with curiosity and excitement.

"These, Sirius, are the new exchange student's Albus has been talking about: Edward Elric, Iris Frasier, and Envy Van." To each in turn she pointed, and each said there hello.

"Hello." Iris.

"Hey." Ed.

"…" Envy.

"Interesting…I say, why are you two wearing military uniforms…?" Sirius asked even more curious as he led them down the hallway into the kitchen. All inhabitants of Grimmauld place were downstairs in the basement kitchen, already eating away at sandwiches and drinking butterbeer. The two alchemists were saved from answering any more questions once they entered the crowded dining room, for all the people in there had stopped talking and turned their gaze onto the newcomers.

"Molly," McGonagall began, "Could you show these three up to their rooms….? I need to get the sorting hat from Hogwarts." McGonagall was looking towards a very plump woman with long curly red hair. She started at the Professors rudeness but replied kindly,

"Of course, Professor. Now before I take you up there how about we learn each others names…? I'm Molly Weasley and these are my children Bill, Fred, George, Ron, and Ginny. And then these young lady's here are Nymphadora Tonks and Hermione Granger. I suppose you've already met Sirius, the man next to him is Remus Lupin. And you three are…?" The three Amestrians were at a loss for words. The shock that they still hadn't been told their mission yet was annoying, yes, but now they had to start living with thirteen people in the same house.

"Oh yes, how rude of us. My name Iris Frasier, this is Edward Elric and Envy Van." Her tone was polite but quick and her movements were jerky, as if she was either nervous or wanted to get this over with so she could be alone.

"Right, now everyone knows each other. Molly, please, show them to there rooms and I will be back in half an hour." With that she turned on the spot and disappeared up the stairs. While the three Amestrians just stood there with blank looks on their faces, everyone in the room had resumed chatting but in quieter voices. Mrs. Weasley shot them an annoyed look before she herded the three newcomers up the stairs towards what seemed to be an uninhabited part of the house.

"Alright you three, the room on the left is Iris's and the room on the right you boy's will share. The others' rooms are on the floor just below us and one of the children will come to get you at dinner. Oh, and there will be a young man coming tonight, his name is Harry and he'll more than likely be mad so please try not to aggravate him too much." And with that she left the three to start unpacking and headed down the stairs.

"First things first, get out of this uniform." Iris called desperately. She and Ed quickly moved into the rooms only to come out three seconds later to swap duffels. After about three or four minutes both came out dressed in jeans and black too-long long sleeved shirts, so they could hide their auto-mail without wearing gloves.

"Right lets see if we can think of a back story for all of us. Envy's already got part of his down but Iris and I don't have a clue, so here's what I propose we do…" Ed started talking in hushed tone in case someone was listening in, and in fact some one was. And for the next twenty minutes said person listened in on the three Amestrians fake back story's, and as soon as they heard Mrs. Weasley call from below, stowed the extendable ear quietly in their pocket and made their way down the stairs.

The three Amestrians came to the foot of the stairs and were met with the sight of Professor McGonagall holding a stool and an old stitched hat. They all had confused looks on their faces as McGonagall called them over,

"Elric, come sit on the stool and you will be sorted." Her voice was stern but worried. She was panicking inside because she thought that military personnel might have a dark and bloody past. When she placed the hat on Ed's head it slid to just above his ears and began to whisper,

"Ahh yes, another tragic pas-An alchemist, my word I haven't had one of you since well over 300 years ago…and you are the son of Hoenheim, my, my, you certainly are cunning but you are also very smart, immensely loyal and very brave. You have all house traits but I think I'll put you in GRYFINNDOR!" The hat's whispers became a yell as the young blonde was placed in his house. He got off the stool and walked back over to Iris and Envy with a very confused look on his face. 'How did that hat talk…?' Thought Ed, he was trying to go over the possibilities in his head when the professor called Iris over,

"Frasier, your next then it's Van and we can al go back to our business." McGonagall had a stern look about her and her aura was immense, but her eyes still betrayed a hint of worry. The old professor placed the stitched up hat on top of Iris's Raven blue locks and again it started whisper,

"Oh ho, so much like the last, an alchemist and a horrible past, not so cunning but immensely book smart and loyal, your bravery is that to be rivaled but I think I'll place you in RAVENCLAW!" Again the hat yelled the respective house and Iris hopped off the stool and hurried back over next to Ed and Envy just as confused as her blonde companion, having similar thoughts running through her head.

Envy walked over to McGonagall without a word and sat on the stool and no sooner had the hat been placed on his head had it called, in a very desperate voice, "SLYTHERINE!" The young sin gracefully removed himself from the stool and strode over to the other two Amestrians; his confusion easily hidden by a mask of cold boredom.

Okay! This was about three fourths of a page longer than the last chapter and hopefully is better than or at least as good as the last one. I'm sorry this took so long to update, I've been stressing a lot lately and my exhaustion is catching up with me. Any who, I really hope you liked this chapter as much as the last so I will leave you all to your chocolate frogs and (maybe some of you are crazy enough) your every flavor beans. Tiny little bit's concerning the numbers in the story:

I don't really have a subject for them to argue about so think something up.

Remember Ed is someone who is afraid of Winry's wrench so you would think….

Envy looks nineteen for Christ's sake, I'm not going to describe him as 'The old sin' that would just be weird.

I'm really, really sorry. I couldn't think of anything else that would work for Envy so I'm kinda using the second anime's plot but the people look like they are from the manga.

Now I bid you ado my friends and loyal story alert peoplez.

Flyer out.
