-- The Pact --

By: Chiruken

Previous Chapter:

�I was wondering when you�d get curious enough to
ask.� Envy crouched down beside Ed and
smiled, an almost wistful twist to his lips.
�What I want, Chibi-san�� He reached out and smoothed his hand over the
golden hair in a strangely tender gesture.
�Is to make a deal.�

Chapter
2

Ed jerked his head away from the
unwelcome�and admittedly creepy�touch of Envy�s hand on his hair, eyes narrowed
suspiciously. �What kind of deal?� He didn�t like the way the homunculus was
looking at him. It made him feel
decidedly uncomfortable and he resisted the urge to act on that discomfort and
squirm. He resented the fact that,
without any effort at all it seemed, Envy could strip away his defenses and
throw him off balance. It was
humiliating, to say the least.

Envy�s eyes narrowed at the blatant
rejection but shrugged it off almost immediately, schooling his features back
into a placid smile once again. �Oh, the
usual sort�you do for me, and I do for you.
Equivalent exchange.� He grinned and
rocked back on the balls of his feet, wrapping his arms around his knees and
holding his legs close to his chest as he rested his cheek against his upraised
knees to regard the blond alchemist with a calculating expression in his
amethyst eyes. �What do you say? Deal?�
He held his breath as he awaited Ed�s response, gaze intent on his face
as he attempted to catch every fleeting emotion flitting across his youthful
and expressive features.

He shifted away and slowly pushed
himself upright, running his left hand along his right arm with a frown. There was something in the other man�s
demeanor that set him on edge, made him infinitely aware of the utter stupidity
of responding to the letter as instructed, arriving in this remote location
alone, without the added support of his younger brother�s comforting presence. �I�m not agreeing to anything without first
knowing the terms.� He answered
carefully, trying valiantly to keep his tone even and not give away the fact
that he was beginning to border on panic.
He wasn�t willing to admit that Envy terrified him, nor the reasons
behind his fear. It was blatantly
obvious the homunculus outmatched him for strength, speed and agility. If he�d wanted to, he could�ve ended his life
at any given moment with no effort at all.
Yet, for some as of yet undisclosed reason, he hadn�t. Ed didn�t like feeling as if he was being
toyed with, but that was the only conclusion he could reach, given the
circumstances. He risked a moment to
glance down to assess the damage done to his auto-mail and sucked in a sharp
breath. �Damn it, Envy! Did you have to wreck it like this?� He looked up with an accusing glare directed
at the homunculus watching him with an unblinking stare that made his hair try
to stand on end. �Winry�s gonna kill me
for busting up her auto-mail again.�

Tilting his head to the side
curiously, he pursed his lips thoughtfully.
�Winry?� He repeated with a
curious frown, raising his hand to tap his fingers against his lips in contemplation. Suddenly he straightened, dropping his hand
to lace his fingers with the other again, hugging his legs close to his chest
as his eyes brightened with sudden understanding, immediately tamping down on
the growing sense of jealousy that flared within him. �Your little girlfriend. I remember her.� He waved a hand carelessly when Ed started to
splutter out denials, face turning red in either embarrassment or anger�Envy
wasn�t certain which. �Pretty little
thing, ain�t she? Blonde hair, blue
eyes�wicked right hook with a wrench.�
He grinned when Ed fell abruptly silent, face going pale as his eyes
widened in alarm. �What?� He took a brief moment to relish the feeling
of superiority that infused him at the alchemist�s reaction. It wasn�t as if he�d actually done anything
to the girl, but of course Ed couldn�t know that. He�d let him squirm for a while with
uncertainty before setting him straight on this matter. In all honesty, he could care less about
Winry Rockbell, if not for the fact that she seemed to have gained the
attention of Edward Elric, and Envy didn�t like that one little bit. He would be the first to admit that he didn�t
like sharing, especially the attention of someone who fascinated him as much as
the young State Alchemist did.

�Y-you didn�t do�� He paused for a
moment, his agitation becoming increasingly noticeable, mind working at a rapid
pace as he went over the last meeting he�d had with his childhood friend and
whether or not he�d heard from her since he�d last seen her. �Anything to her, did you?� He held his breath as he awaited the other
man�s answer. He just couldn�t remember
and he was terrified at the thought that the homunculus might have harmed her
in some way in an attempt to ferret out his weaknesses and use them against
him.

Envy sighed heavily and shook his head
in mock sorrow. �Aw, you�re just no fun,
Chibi-san. You get worked up over the
smallest of things.� He shrugged
eloquently and shifted until he was sitting cross-legged before the State
Alchemist and when his expression darkened with rising anger he waved a hand in
casual dismissal. �The lovely Winry is
fine�sheesh.� He wrinkled his nose in
disgust. �Your low opinion of my
intentions wounds me, Ed, it really does.�

Snorting, Ed transmuted the blade back
into his auto-mail arm, deciding that, for the moment, the homunculus wasn�t
about to attack him. �Oh, really? I wonder why I�d have such a low opinion of
you.� He tilted his head to the side,
widening his eyes in mocking surprise as he affected an expression of dawning
understanding. �Gee, could it be �cause
you�re a self-proclaimed psychotic murderer?�
He spread his hands out to the side.
�Naw, that can�t be it. Must be
your intrinsic charm.� He rolled his
eyes. �What do you think?�

One dark eyebrow lifted. �Do you have a death wish or something?� Envy made a show of studying his nails before
his hand darted out, fingers wrapping around Ed�s throat once again and pulling
him closer until their noses touched.
�Edward, there is a limit to my patience�and you�re really pushing it
tonight.� He shook him a little before
thrusting him away again. �Can�t you at
least try to be civil? Just once?�

Ed winced and rubbed the back of his
head where it had connected with the unforgiving mortar of the wall before
righting himself again. �Ow, damn
it! Stop tossing me around.� He directed a scathing glare at the other
man.

�Stop being a brat.� He retorted immediately, returning the glare
with one of his own. After several long
moments he finally sighed and leaned back.
�This is getting us no where.�

Ed silently agreed and shifted
uncomfortably against the cold floor.
�Just get to the point, then.�

Envy suddenly stood in one fluid
motion, towering over the smaller figure of Edward Elric as he leaned forward
to stare down at him with the same unblinking gaze he�d shown earlier. �What I want, Chibi-san�� His lips stretched
into what Ed thought to be the most sinister expression he�d seen on the
homunculus� face yet. The homunculus in
question was watching every nuance flitting across Ed�s features avidly,
becoming increasingly amused by the varying emotions that were visible in his
expressive golden eyes. �Is�� He lowered
his voice to a whisper, eyes taking on a sultry half-lidded look as he gently
cupped the younger alchemist�s cheek with his palm. �You.�
