Hey guys I have returned sorry for the long wait of this chapter.

Envy POV

God this stupid girl. What the hell was she thinking. She could've gotten us both in deep shit!!

"Envy?", she said. I gave a deep growl as a reply. I didn't wanna say another goddamn thing till we were home.

When we finally did I threw her across the floor and slammed the door behind me.

"FUCKING HELL LITTLE GIRL!!! What were you thinking!!! You know that we can't leave!! What if we got caught huh? Father could've killed you!!! You know that?!"

Y/n looked at me "I was curious", she simply replied. I groaned and face palmed.

"Let me rephrase that...you would've DIED!!! Does that mean nothing to you?!"

Y/N shrugged and sat up.

"If he needs me so badly he won't kill me. Besides it's not like that matters"

I looked at her shocked. Don't all humans care for their lives?

I growled once again and glared at her. "What's your game girl? What do you believe to accomplish by doing this?", I asked. She simply shrugged. I groaned very annoyed.

"Fucking hell!", I couldn't take it. I needed fresh air. I opened the door and muttered, "Stay here", and walked outside and sat on the porch. I can't read her. I have no idea what goes on through that head of hers.

Y/N POV

Welp, I'd done it this time. I stood up and went to my room. Grabbing one of my father's books, I sat down and started reading. Father's research was making more sense now.

Laying the loose papers he had onto the bed, I began to read another entry.

"A terrible war seems to be upon us...I saw the soldier kill an innocent Ishvalan girl. I had never seen anything like it. But something was off...after he killed her, I saw him go the side and saw a bright red spark of lightning of some kind. And then the soldier claimed he had no recollection of ever killing the girl, claiming innocence. But I saw him with my own two eyes. Tho it might be possible, that the very man accused of the crime was not the one who did it. I don't have proof of this yet but...it has to do with that lighting. Cloning? Perhaps some type of alchemy? Whatever it may be it's very dangerous. I must be sure to keep my cover so that the military suspect nothing. I will find out what has been happening. Nothing will stop me!!"

I looked back at the loose papers of recorded instances of human transmutation, sudden uprises such as the one in Lior. And any reports of mysterious figures creeping about, ones that seemed similar to that of a homunculus.

I was sure of it, I was sure that Envy was the one who killed that innocent girl back in Ishval. That red lightning matches the way Envy can shapeshift.

I've been wanting to find out more and more about these creatures my father had been researching about since his young age of 20.

TW!!!!!

There was still so much to unravel. I got up and headed to the shower, grabbing one of my razors as I went it.

Envy POV

I was growing bored again. Why must this boredom haunt me so? I sighed snd got up and walked back into the house.

I noticed Y/N's bedroom door was closed, so I figured she was in there.

Slumping onto the couch I stared at the ceiling, slowly getting lost in thought.

I didn't understand why Father was keeping her around. She should've been killed from the beginning and yet we have to keep her dumb ass alive. Does she really have no sense of survival?

"If he needs me so badly he won't kill me. Besides it's not like that matters", her words still rang in my head. When she said it I had this weird...feeling. and I didn't understand it. But it was annoying the hell outta me. I heard the door creak and looked over, speak of the devil. She was wrapped in a towel with it over her shoulders and around her entire body. Her hair was soaking wet and dripped onto the floor as she made her way to the kitchen.

She came back out with only an apple once again.

"Really? Is there nothing else in that kitchen that you feel like eating?", I asked. She simply shrugged and took and bite as she headed back to her room. I swear she makes absolutely no sense. Nothing else was said between us for the rest of the night and before I knew it, morning had come.

She came out wearing a simple, f/c(favorite/color), long sleeved dress, with black boots.

I stood up and blocked her entry to the kitchen. "We need to talk", I stated.

She looked up "What's up Palm Tree?"

My eyeball twitched at the mention of that stupid nickname.

"Its clear that you can't seem to get through your thick head that you can't just do anything you want anymore, so we are gonna establish some ground rules. Understand?"

She nodded and sit down to listen more. I took a breath, ready to make myself clear.

"Alright, number 1. Don't go ANYWHERE outside the house without me. If I'm not with you, you don't go. Simple as that. Number 2, enough with the freaky questions and drawings alright? Keep them to yourself! Number 3, Always listen and do what I tell you to, or both of us could end up dead. Number 4, DON'T call me Palm Tree. My name is ENVY and don't you forget it!! Now, is that all understood?"

She looked down, seemingly processing, and nodded. "Undstood Envy", and with that, left into the kitchen. I sighed, maybe now I'll finally keep this brat outta trouble.
