So MissiB wanted me to post the next chapter, so I did! Enjoy and review!
A huge whooshing wind swirled around the room.
I bit my lip as Envy's memories swept into my mind. It happened to everyone. The person's memories you were sending crashed into your mind.
Starting a war.
Watching people die, cackling the whole time.
Obeying his Father.
Fighting Fullmetal Alchemist, a.k.a., Edward Elric.
Dying by fire.
So you were a sadist, hmm? What. . .
I focused on one memory. Envy scared, right before he dies. I sifted through other ones. Hmm, when Lust dies he's quite unhappy. Loyalty? So he's not completely devoid of good emotions. I wonder if he could make it to Heaven.
I pulled Envy back into the room.
"MOTHER!" I screamed over the inferno.
Her golden gaze landed on me.
"PLEASE, STOP THIS!"
Mom watched me for a moment, then halted the power flow. Humility collapsed to her knees, panting.
"I need to talk to you."
-*()*-
"So you think they could survive in heaven?" Mom asked.
I nodded. "I think, if he had to work for it, he could make it."
"I saw his memories too, Kindness. I am not so sure." She looked at me seriously.
"Give me a chance. If I can get him to survive, will you let him in?" I pleaded.
She thought for a long moment, staring at me. "I give him three strikes. Mess up those and he's burning." She swept out of the small room I had constructed a few minutes prior.
I sighed, rubbing my face tiredly. This is up to you, Envy. Don't screw up your chance
After Mom explained something weird had come up in the judging, the Homunculi were each given rooms for a while as she worked it out with Humility and Chas. I led Envy out of the Star Room, down several hallways, up a flight of stairs and down another hallway.
"Your room is near mine." I explained, turning the corner.
Envy was silent, looking slightly overwhelmed. "Heh, don't worry if you get lost. Here we go." I stopped in front of a door.
"This one's yours. We're on the 4th floor of the Mansion. My room's there." I nodded to the door across the hallway.
I pushed open his door, showing a room. It was pretty plain, with a bed shoved against the left wall. A window straight ahead, and a dresser on the opposite side of the bed. A table next to the bed with a chair. A door next to it led to the bathroom.
"I didn't have to sleep and eat in Amestris." he walked in.
"That's nice. You don't have to here, either, but I find it's nice to lay on the bed and think." I said as he sunk on the bed.
"Hah, you think? That's funny." He snickered.
I exploded.
"SHUT UP! The only reason you're not burning in Hell is 'cause of me! If you'd rather be burned by Mustang all over again, then I can send you there right now!" He blinked as I waved my arms.
I pointed at him. "Some respect would be nice! And unless you can prove to us you can survive in Heaven, you're burning!" I turned and stomped out of the room, slamming the door behind me.
I opened my door, my room changing to my mood.
Dark reds and blacks shifted under my feet. Fire licked the walls, and my chandelier lights dimmed, the fire glowing brighter.
"ARGH!" I punched the wall, angry. "He makes me so mad!"
