The whispers...the endless whispers. They were driving him mad, telling him horrifying things. Things that would never have crossed his mind. Or would they have? He couldn't remember.

Running his hands through his dark hair, he watched the shadows around him wriggle and writhe. Their red eyes watched every move he made and every breath he took. Taking a stuttering breath, he pulled his knees closer to his chest and closed his eyes tightly. But closing his eyes made the whispers louder and he let out a scream. He was going mad!

"Leave me be already..." his voice faltered. "You've driven me mad enough, wasn't that your goal? To drive me mad? Well I'm fucking INSANE NOW!" He began laughing at himself, he was insane. He was talking to shadows! "THAT'S RIGHT! I'M INSANE!" He began laughing more and he tilted his head back as if he were laughing at the Heavens. "Who's in here?" A voice demanded as a door slammed open, slowly he looked to his left.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" A man in a gray and black suit demanded as he slowly lowered the knife he was holding. "My, nice suit you have there." He hummed as the man walked closer. "Here, let me help you." The man reached for him and time seemed to slow. Kill him, the whispers were clearer now, kill him now, strangle him. He imagined the shadows snaking around the man, around his throat, and squeezing.

Next thing he knew, he was watching and grinning as the shadows did exactly that. The man's eyes went huge and he tried fruitlessly to pull the shadows away from his throat. "What are you?" The man wheezed and slowly his grin turned sadistic. "Insane, alone, not human and in need of clothes." He hummed before laughing slightly as the life started to drain from the man's eyes. The man fell to the floor with a thud.

Humming still, he stood and began striping off the gray vest from the man. "It'd be a shame to let this suit go to waste." He said to the man as the raspy breaths slowed more and more. "Who are you?" The man asked weakly and he grinned, glancing up from unbuttoning the black button up the man was wearing. "My name is Greed." He purred cheerfully as the man's eyes glazed over and his head fell limply. Greed watched as the shadows retreated from the body and he finished striping off the clothes before dressing himself in them.

He looked down at the suit and smirked, kicking aside the black shoes that sat beside his feet. Leave, before someone comes and finds you. The homunculus started walking away before he glanced back at the body. "Well, can't let it go to waste." He licked his lips and smirked, his teeth as sharp as the shadows'. Slowly the shadows crept closer to the body once again. "And seeing as I'm hungry~." He cooed.

As he left the abandoned shack it began to rain. Was he in a forest? It sure looked like it and he sighed, heading in the direction he could smell and hear other humans. Greed tucked his hands into his pockets and eventually noticed the shadows had disappeared. "Huh..." he muttered before shrugging and ignoring the people he passed as he walked into a town.

Soon he found an abandoned building and went in. He reached up and ruffled his own hair to shake the water out of it. Greed walked to the back of the building and imagined the shadows wrapping around himself and the rafters above him. As he expected they reappeared and supported him midair like he wanted them to. He was safe. For a while at least.
