Roy sat there looking down at the disturbing pictures that he had been given. He sighed deeply and put his hands to his head. There was very little he could do besides give them what they wanted. He had no one else to back him up. The Furher was behind it all. He sat back and sighed. Ed came walking in not long after. Ed sat down in the chair opposite of him and smiled. His smile soon faded however when he realized the distressed look upon Roy’s face. “What’s wrong?” Ed knew it was a stupid question. He knew very well what was wrong but something nagged at him and told him that was not all that lied behind the exterior emotions of Roy Mustang. Roy looked at him sadly and shook his head. “I don’t know what else to do. I’ve thought of everything. I have to give them what they want. I have to give you to them…”

Envy had to get punished for what Wrath did. He sighed as he glared at the scars on his skin. They slowly started to fade. Envy growled as he opened the door to the unit. He had to personally clean the mess Wrath did. Why did he put up with the raging fit of midget? Cause the asshole needed him. Envy first made sure the raging thing called Wrath was no longer in the room and then spoke. "Hiya fellows! Enjoying your stay? It's Wednesday, three more days to go!" Envy said sarcastically.

Riza lifted her head slowly to meet the gaze of the Homunculus. She was weak and she was tired. They had not been feed nor had they had anything to drink. Luckily they could be escorted to the restrooms, however they were beaten to and from the place. She unwillingly let out a soft whimper, which alerted the rest of the unit to her distress. She tried to shift and make herself comfortable but failed. Three days. She was a strong woman but she didn’t even know if she could withstand any more pain without being able to build up the strength for it.

"Guess what everybody! I brought you some food and drinks! Now since you’re all gracefully ungaged! Answer my question correctly and you get the food! Answer it wrong then no food!" Envy smirked at them. "Do you really think your good old commander's going to give up Edo-Chan for ya's or leave you all here to die?" Envy smirked; he of course knew all the answers. He knew they'd guess wrong.

Riza’s eyes widened at the word “food”. Everyone else’s did as well. Havoc cleared his parched throat and spoke in a low and cracked voice. “So…we answer your question...and we get food…. and drink? It’s an easy question. Of course he won’t.” Havoc let his gaze fall back to his knees. Fury made a squeal of some sort as if he was totally not expecting that answer. Havoc hoped that Roy would come and “save” them for lack of a better word, but he also knew that Ed was the love of his life. Havoc at least hoped that he wouldn’t give him up for their lives. Love like that didn’t come often.

"So is that the only one who's going to answer? " Envy smirked looking around. "That's it?"

Riza spoke up quietly. It was something she didn’t want to admit but there came a time and place for everything. “He won’t do it. He loves him too much.” Everyone but Fury murmured their agreements. Fury was not willing to part with his image of Roy Mustang. He had to come. He just had too. Fury looked up at havoc and they exchanged meaningful glances. If Roy didn’t come and they were killed would it necessarily be for selfish reasons? They had devoted their life to this man. Fury sat thinking for a few seconds before looking up at Envy with a look of strength that made Havoc smile. “If he give him to you I will personally take the gun and shoot him myself.” There was something most people forgot when they served to protect someone. That person’s family. If Fury were to risk his life for Roy he would do it for Ed as well because Ed was Roy’s partner, and ultimately becoming Roy’s family.

"You fellas are as stupid as you seem. You think that your commander is so great! He's giving up his most prized possession that he took from me and is now giving it up! Looks like Miss Tight Ass is going to personally shoot him. Not like it matters...Your all going to die anyways! Maybe you can rekill him in hell!" Envy barked out a hideous laugh. "Looks like no food for you. Cuz I got the letter stating he'll hand over Dear little Edo-Chan at the lot at three tomorrow. OH well! Enjoy your lives!"

Riza gasped, as did the others. This was not the truth. It couldn’t have been. Fury whimpered and seemed to crawl into such a tight ball that it looked as if he had merged into himself. Havoc however let his head fall back and breath as best he could with his broken rib. Breda barked at them after Envy had left. “What the hell is he getting at?!” Falman shushed him. “It’s standard procedure. He has to follow it. We have to weight out the outcome of the situation. If there is more at stake by not giving them what they want then we give it to them and let the investigation department deal with the rest.” Breda started to bitch and havoc chuckled and winced in pain. Riza looked at him solemnly. “What is so funny Havoc?” Havoc took in a semi deep breath. “He isn’t going to give him to them. He won’t. I know him better then that.”

Envy frowned outside of the door, listening to them talk. He sighed; he knew that it wasn't going to be that easy. He smirked and started down the bloody hallway again. Bastards. I wonder if they'll even notice the doors unlocked. He laughed coldly as he passed the room where Wrath was locked up in and where the Furher was staying.

Roy sat at the table with is head in his hands. He was worried. They had went over what was suppose to happen but he still did not feel confident. If they screwed up just once then Yami and Ed were theirs. And he and his unit would be killed. If they didn’t then hopefully they all could get out without any causalities. He looked over at Ed and sighed. “Are you sure you can do this? I feel really bad for using you as bait.”

Yami smirked at him; He was sitting on top of the table with his feet sitting on the chair. "It'll be a cinch, really." He winked at Roy. "Let's go over this again if you’re worried. "

Roy sighed and sat up straight. “I’m just worried that you’ll do something stupid like try to help me if things get out of hand. He promised me he would get out despite the fact that I was in trouble so you have to make sure you keep that promise Yami. And do not let them take you. If I can’t help you, kill everything in your path to get out.”]

Yami smirked and looked at Roy. "I will, so will he, cause you won't get into any trouble. I can promise you that one. " Or else Ed would probably wither away and die leaving me all alone here in the light. "You can count on us with anything, Royo-chan!" Well me cause Ed's a total blonde. "Let's start on plan A again or else I'll make up a portion of the plan into my own hands and have fun with it!" There was an evil tint to Yami's purple eyes. "Looks like we have a little visitor by the way. " Yami nodded his head to the window.

Roy looked down and sighed. He couldn’t even laugh at Yami’s awkward need to die by the hands of his counterpart. “ When they are untied, you go after the one in charge. Take them out by any means possible then get the hell out of there.” Roy’s conversation was cut very short as he sat up and turned to the window ready to flame the “visitor”.

Envy pouted as he jumped into the window. "Yami-chibi your no fun." He then smirked and glared at Roy. "Don't thing about it flame boy." In Envy's hand was an envelope. "Your crew didn't get to eat today cause they thought you were all glamorous, but it seems you have more loyalty to your unit then to 'ld chibi-Chan. “ Yami growled and backed away slightly.

Roy stood up and moved himself between Envy and Yami. He was not going to even give Envy a chance to even breath on Yami. He would defend him with his life. He glared at Envy in a way that would drive most people under their beds never to come out. “Shut the fuck up! I’m tired of your bullshit.” It took everything he had not to kick the hell out of the green haired homunculus who stood taunting him.

Envy shrugged and his smirk turned into a sinister smile. "I like Chibi-Chan better anyways, he doesn't hid behind his so a called lover like Yami-chibi does. I like wild things, Yami's to tamed for my tastes." Yami looked down at the ground in shame. "Oh well, you'd like these no?" Envy mocked throwing the envelope to Roy's feet. "Don't even think of flaming me, maybe I'll flame you back." Envy glared at the fingers posed for snapping.

Roy almost growled at him in angry. “You talk about him hiding from you, what about yourself? What is it that you are really gaining from this? You could very well do this all by yourself but you are evidently not strong enough so you have to work with the big bad Furher.” Roy mocked him. “Is he offering poor little Envy protection?” Roy chuckled.” I would say that he has you by the balls. He’s screwing you in your ass and you don’t even have time to enjoy it.” Roy shook his head and clicked his tongue. “And to think, I thought that you had it all figured out.”

Yami whined and glared at the two. He wondered if Roy had lost his fucking mind. "What the fuck do you know!? I.... I am strong enough to work by myself! You asshole! I don't need that fuck up of a Furher to help me at all. He just has me at an advantage." Envy growled, charging at Roy and Yami.

Roy’s left hand flew back and pushed Yami behind him and away from Envy and he snapped with the other sending a current of flames the homunculus’ direction. Roy did not hesitate to taunt him even more yelling at him over the roaring of the flames. “What the matter you bastard! Did I hit a nerve? Advantage you say, hmm, I’ll say he has one hell of an advantage over you. He’s going to use you for everything that you are worth, which isn’t much, then he’s going to get rid of you as quickly as he conned your stupid ass into helping him.”

"You think I don't know that?" Envy whispered into Roy's ear from behind him. Holding his arm shape-shifted knife to his neck. Yami was thrown aside, and glared up at Envy. "Don't you dare move, Chibi" Envy growled and made Yami stop from getting up. "He has an advantage over you to. Their going to be snipers all over that fucking lot, just to kill you and your whole fucked up unit. They’re too weak to even run. After all their door is unlocked, they could have left whenever they wanted too” Envy smirked and kissed Roy's neck. "They didn't think you'd come and rescue them like the big bad leader you are. They resent you for even thinking of rescuing them and giving up little 'ld chibi-Chan. The blonde one even said she'd shoot you with the gun you gave her if you did." Envy cooed.

Roy stood there as still as still could be. He had failed horribly to protect Yami and now he had a knife to his throat. Perfect. He was too caught up in his anger to even see the homunculus move. He took a deep breath feeling the blade dig into his skin as he did. “You think I don’t fucking know that it’s a trap. You do underestimate me.” Roy felt bad for what he was getting ready to say and expected a severe ass later if he didn’t die now. “I don’t even plan on walking out of the place alive matter of fact I can almost assure you that I wont. But I will make sure that they. And with all do respect you fucking prick, My unit is a lot stronger then you think they are and they will maim you where you stand when given the right opportunity.”

Yami frowned and glared at Roy. "Stupid stupid stupid." He muttered, making Envy smile. Envy hummed licking a little blood off of Roy's neck. "Let's make a deal then, bastard. How about it? I'll let you all live if you kill off the Furher, and forget I even exist" Envy smirked there would be a catch of course, but it's always fun to mess with human's minds. "What do you say? Hmmm"

Roy could hear Yami and sighed. He had no other choice. Roy flinched as he felt Envy’s tongue on his neck and his deep throaty hum in his ear. He made an awkward face not at all enjoying the violation. “You have some hidden motive. You can kill the Furher yourself. Why do you ask me to do it?”

"Yami and me aren't even supposed to exist moron.” Envy purred. "If you kill him, I was never involved. Don't you understand? If the rest of the government found out about Yami he'd be dissected, tested, probably even tortured?" Envy smirked and licked Roy again. "If I kill the Furher myself the first person their going to be coming after is Edo-chibi, ne?"

Roy listened to his words carefully. The thought of them getting a hold of Yami infuriated him to now end. Roy tried to yank his head away from Envy’s mouth but failed miserably when the blade dug even further into his milky white skin causing even more of if to turn a hideous shade of scarlet. “ How in the hell do I know that you wont back out on your word or better yet add more rules to it and call it fair and come after him when all this is over?”

Envy made a tisk sound with his tongue and moved the blade slightly away from Roy's neck. "I'm done playing games with my little brother." Envy purred. "Why would I go after him anyways? He's no use to me when he's to scared of me to fight back anymore." Envy licked more of the blood off of Roy's neck. "You might want to figure out a way to kill Wrath too. He's the one that tore the shit out of your unit. You'd be surprised how strong the little fuck is." Envy removed the blade, turning it back into an arm. He licked his lips. "I'll only warn you once. Go back on me, you’re all fucking dead.”

Roy was still frozen to the spot from something that Envy said. Roy repeated in his head but it came out verbally as well. “Little brother...?” He was pretty sure he was hearing stuff or maybe he was simply talking about Yami. But it sent chills up his spine either way. If the sin considered Yami his brother, why would he have done the things he did to him?

"Well Half-little brother really” Envy smirked at Roy as Yami got up. Yami growled at Envy, glaring at him. "Shut up!" Yami barked making Envy laugh. "Why should I? It's the TRUTH after all!" Envy shrugged and turned walking towards the window. "I'll see you two tomorrow then. Tootles" Envy laughed, jumping out the window.

Roy stood there for a seconds before rounding on Yami. “Explain, please, what the hell that was all about!” Roy was visibly shaken and he was not happy. There was something seriously wrong here and he was in the dark.

Yami pouted, great Envy has gotten him in trouble, and he's not even the one who spawned Envy in the first place. "It's simple really. The bastard had a child with what's her name, then that child died, and the bastard tried to bring him back. But instead of the darling child they had, they brought back a fuck up really. Thus makes him my 'half'- brother” Yami blinked at Roy tilting his head slightly. "Don’t tell me that Ed didn't tell you?"

Roy’s mouth dropped and he felt a damn inside him break. “NO HE DIDN”T FUCKING TELL ME ANYTHING LIKE THAT.” Roy took a few steps back from Yami and chuckles humorlessly. “So you’re related. Well that explains the temper thing. I’m quite interested to know why the hell information, such as this, was hidden from me, and by your reaction to it being revealed, you had no intentions of telling me. He...did things to you. HE”S YOUR BROTHER!” Roy held a hand to his forehead trying hard to get all of his thoughts back in check. He was supposed to kill the Furher in return for his subordinate’s lives as well as Ed’s and his being spared. Wrath was a rampaging lunatic and he still had to deal with him, not to mention, he had to FIND a way to get to the Furher without being caught or he was as good as dead. On top of it all a newfound discovery about his lover was clearly revealed in all the wrong ways.

Yami flinched at Roy's reaction. He didn't want to stay and find out if Roy finally exploded. "He doesn't care about that! I know who he is!" Yami yelled, turned and into the bathroom and locked the door. He closed his eyes, going to the dark place he loved so much, just to get away from the lunatic of a general.

Roy watched as Yami stormed into the bathroom. Roy went right after him standing on the other side of the door. “You run all you want but I refuse to let you run from me! YOU SHOULD OF TOLD ME THIS...AGES AGO!! This is not something you should have hid from me!” Roy was so half tempted to kick down the damn door just to get him face to face. This was Bullshit in Roy’s book. “How many other things do you have to tell me huh? Any deep dark secret that would give me any clue as to how to deal with some of my worst enemies that you are evidently related to!!” Roy walked away from the door for a few seconds before going back pacing in front of it. There was something that almost disgusted him by the massive withhold of information. It was a bit frightening.

Edward swallowed hard, great everything goes wrong when He's in that horrible place. Ed sighed and buried his head in his knees. He was pretty sure that at any minute Roy would either burn down the door or kick it down. He whined as he heard Roy pave into the door.

The door fell down almost effortlessly. Roy was left standing there looking quite amazed that the damn door was not the sturdy. He glared at the blonde. “You owe me explanation and by god I will hunt you down until you give it to me.” Roy was not one to threaten his lovers and so by all means the thought never crossed his mind when it came to Ed. Until now. He was quite afraid of what would have happened if the boy tried to get away from him once again. He was over reacting, pissed off, and had no control of his emotions.

"Now Roy, Calm down" Ed said looking for a good opening in which he could get away from Roy with. "I don't see what's gotten you so riled up like this." Ed babbled. "It's not like it's my fault Envy's my brother or anything like that" Ed slipped under Roy and made a run for the door.

Roy spun on his heel and ran after the escapist blonde. If Roy had not been expecting the flee he would have not caught him. Instead the reach out grabbed him by the shoulder and slammed him into to the wall just hard enough to make him understand he was not fucking around. “Don’t …you dare run away from me.” His voice was low and menacing. Roy did not want to hurt him. He only wanted an explanation. Why was it so hard to get that out of him? “All you had to fucking do was tell me.”

"You have your explanation right there! The bastard fucked Dante! Is that what you want to hear?" Ed yelled, wincing at the slight pain in his back. "Envy DIED young and was BROUGHT back like Al and me tried with mom! What else do you want to know?! Why should it matter if Envy's my brother or not?!"

Roy glared at him and backed up. “Because you could very well be the only person that can seal him. Because of your lack to notify anyone of this information until now, it’s to fucking late to find out if you actually can or not.” Roy turned around and walked towards the door. “I lost you once to him and I could very well loose you again. And you could have very well prevented all this if you only would have said something.” Roy shook his head.

"Sealing him would also mean sealing my self, dumbass" Ed growled at Roy's back. "Ever think of that?! Even without Envy there's still wrath to consider. He's much more conniving then Envy! Just cause he looks like a kid doesn't mean he thinks like one! Envy's also a hell a lot smarter then you give him credit for! He's been alive for over 400 years! Don't you think he's thought of me sealing him before!? He knows almost every trick in the book! He only acts like at fuckin' teenager to make you let your guard down on his predictability! Don’t you fucking blame me for all of this!"

Roy looked at him inquisitively. “Would it actually seal you considering you are human? Or would it just seal your homunculus part?” Roy was not to happy with himself for thinking briefly about how much easier it would be. “I am quite aware of Wrath and the problem he poses for us. “ Roy didn’t apologize for blaming Ed for this though. He was still pissed and not ready to give up the idea of Ed holding the answer to dealing with the personal space violating homunculus.

"So are you thinking it would just be easier to get ride of him completely? Just like that?" Ed looked hurt as he stared at Roy. Ed frowned and shook his head. "I wonder about you sometimes..." Ed whispered then ran out of the door and out of the hotel. He knew he could be blamed for not telling Roy or anyone else about Envy. He dashed down the road, not wanting to deal with anything at the moment...and knew it was selfish of him to do so.

Roy stood there not speaking. He didn’t even call out to Ed when he ran out the door. He knew very well that what he had said was totally unreasonable and he wouldn’t put it past Yami to kill him in his sleep, which was frightful just thinking about it. He walked over to the window and stared out of it. He was the one now that was required to give an explanation. He sighed and looked down and his eyes fell upon something that had been over looked by all the commotion. He kneeled down and picked up the envelope that Envy had thrown at his feet. He studied it and before even opening it, he knew what was inside. He sat down on the couch and stared up at the ceiling. For the first time since that horrible day, he wished that he had pulled the trigger of the gun he held to his head in the name of the Rockbell’s. As it stood he was going to die anyway. At least then he wouldn’t not of been leaving behind a group of loyal subordinates that we’re being tortured because of him, a homunculus that had proven to him that not all abominations were as evil and uncaring as you may think, and there would not be a pair of golden eyes peering at him every second of the day in his head. There would not be a smile so utterly magnificent that it had turned his world into something he never thought existed, a happy place. He would have never fallen in love with Edward Elric and he would not break his heart in that moment he disappeared from this world.
