"Hurry up Al!" Ed yelled, stopping to wait for the armored boy.

"Coming Brother!" Al called as he rushed up to small alchemist. Ed smiled and shook his head.

"Ok cough it up." He said. Al looked around nervously. "I-I don't know what you're talking about." He stammered. Ed crossed his arms and arched an eyebrow as a mewing sound came from Al's armor. Al sweat dropped as he took a small kitten out of his armor.

"Please Brother, can't we keep him?" He pleaded as he hugged the kitten.

"No." Ed said firmly. "We have gone through this a thousand times!" He added impatiently. Al looked down sadly.

"It was only about two dozen times…" he muttered. Ed's face softened and he let out a sigh. "Look, Al, we can't keep a cat. We are to busy, you know that…" He said calmly. "Now let the cat go."

Al nodded and reluctantly set the cat down, who ran off to chase a mouse that it had spotted a few yards away. Ed shook his head before saying. "Come on, we have to get to head quarters before Mustang pitches a fit." Al nodded before following his brother down the street.

A few buildings down two dark figures watched the brothers from the rooftops. Envy chuckled darkly. "Well well, it looks like we found them." He said with a smirk. Spite looked on with a bored expression on her face.

"So that's them? Feh…they don't look all that special….the way you guys talk about them back at the mansion, I expected someone more impressive….but you are right…..he is short." She said without a hint of interest.

" Don't underestimate Fullmetal, he is stronger than he looks, despite his size, and his brother is no pushover either, though they are still no match for me." Envy replied smugly.

Spite rolled her eyes. "We are not actually going to waste our time with those pathetic humans are we?" She asked with annoyance.

"Heh heh, don't worry Ice Queen, this won't take long at all." Envy reassured her. "Think of it as training."

Spite sighed and nodded her head, as she leaped down the roof with her sensei.

"So what does Mustang want from us this time Brother?" Al asked as they walked down the street.

Ed just shrugged. "Who knows…whatever it is, it's sure to be a pain in the neck." He replied.

Soon the brothers came to a dark alley. "Hey Al, lets take a shortcut through here." Ed suggested.

"But are you sure it's safe?" The younger brother asked nervously.

"Of course it's safe! What can happen?" Ed replied with a chuckle. He proceeded to walk down the alley as Al shook his head and followed.

"Hiya Shrimp! Long time now see!" A familiar voice greeted.

"I know that voice!" Ed thought with alarm as he looked up. "Envy!" He snarled through gritted teeth, as the homunculus appeared in front of them. "What do you want this time, you monster!" The young state alchemist asked, fire burning in his eyes.

"Aww I thought you would be happy to see me Shorty." Envy said as he gave a look of mock hurt.

An anime vein appeared on Ed's forehead as he glared menacingly at his enemy. "WHO ARE YOU CALLING SO SHORT, HE NEEDS A HIGHCHAIR TO REACH THE TABLE!!!!!" He screeched angrily.

"Brother calm down…..you're only encouraging him to taunt you more." Al said in an attempt to calm the shorter boy. Meanwhile, Envy just stood there, laughing maniacally.

Al glared up at the homunculus. "Why are you here?" he asked as he attempted to hold his brother back.

Envy seemed to think for a moment. "Hmmm, why AM I here?" He asked before lighting up. "Oh yes! I was going to introduce you to a new..friend." He replied, as a shadowy figure emerged from out of the ground.

The brother's eyes widened as the shadow dissipated to show a young girl, who did not look much older than either of them. The first thing Ed noticed was the orobouros on her arm. "A homunculus!" He hissed with a shocked look on his face.

"How observant of you." The girl responded dully. She crossed her arms and looked Ed up and down with a bored expression before smirking. "You're right sensei….he IS shorter up close."

Ed growled at her, about to go into another rant, only to be held back by Al. "Wh-who are you?" Al stammered.

Envy smirked evilly. "Meet my new apprentice, Spite." He answered.

Ed's eyes widened. "Apprentice?" He asked in confusion.

"That's right, she is a new homunculus that I am teaching." Envy responded with a grin.

Ed gritted his teeth. "Teaching? Don't you mean corrupting!?" He shouted.

Envy's evil grin just grew wider. "An interesting way to put it but……ya, I guess you're right." He said with an evil chuckle.

Spite rolled her eyes. "Can we go now sensei." She asked in irritation.

"In a minute Ice Queen, just as soon as I beat Shrimp here into a pulp." Envy replied, waving his hand at her dismissively.

Spite sighed. "But they are just a couple of weak humans. Fighting them is a big waste of time…" She said.

"Hey! Don't write me off that quickly!" Ed yelled as he clenched his fists. He clapped his hands together and charged at the young homunculus.

Both Spite and Envy just smirked.
