"What?" Riza, Ed, Al, and Winry all exclaimed.

"Hahaha! Foolish humans. Though he is not in control, I have all of Mustang's memories, so I know where you Elrics live, and where you will most likely go for shelter," Pride stated darkly.

"Whatever, this ends now! Whether in Central or here, we will stop you!" Ed yells.

"Boys, I am about to carry out my plan. Ed, when you see your chance, try and detain Roy, and then insult him in any way you think of. And Al, you stay as back-up for Ed, in case something goes wrong," Riza states softly, only loud enough for Ed and Al to hear.

"Okay, got it," Ed and Al replied. Then Ed stole a quick glance at Alphonse and nodded, confirming what he told him last night. Al nodded back and they were ready to begin.

Riza put her gun in her mouth and prepared to shoot, while Al started to protest and tried to get her to stop. Meanwhile, Ed slowly approached Roy from behind and when he was three feet away he clapped his hands and transmuted a rope out of the ground to force Pride to the ground. Then he jumped on him to hold him down as an extra measure. Then he yelled at him and said, "Mustang, you jerk! Look at Hawkeye! Look at what she's about to do, just because you're too weak to fight for control! Will you really be able to live with yourself, even as a homunculus if you knew she had died because of you?"

Pride starts to say something but all that comes out is, "NOOO! You can't control me, I am superior to humans! STOP IT!"

"That's it Mustang, show him who's boss!" Ed yells.

"I'm in control! This is my body and you will listen to me! Hawkeye! Stop it! That's an order, and you know that you'd better follow it!" Roy screams.

"Yes!" Ed cheers. "It's working!"

"Sir... Roy, is that really you?" Hawkeye asks hopefully.

"Yes, and don't worry, that little stunt you pulled along with Fullmetal brought me back, and I won't be leaving ever again. Apparently, Pride is scared of my power now, since I was able to beat him. So therefore, now all of his power is mine and he has been suppressed. Thank you," Roy reassured her.

"Well, I have to admit, it's good to have you back," Ed stated.

"It's good to be back. Thank you," Roy replied.

"No problem," Ed said.

"Also, Al, thanks for trying to stop Riza from doing something stupid. You tried your best," Roy turned to Alphonse.

"It's no big deal. I couldn't just let her die in my presence, no matter how much she might've wanted to," Al replied.

"So, I just thought of something. Maybe you could get something out of Pride now that he's suppressed, you did say that he is now scared of you. Maybe he knows what happened to Dante, because I doubt she died," Edward started.

"That's true. Well, I will try. Here goes nothing," Roy answered.

*Roy Mustang – With Pride inside his head*

*Pride – With Mustang inside his head*

Hey, Pride. Wake up!Mustang yelled in his thoughts.

What do you want now?Pride answered back.

I want to know what happened to Dante.Mustang demanded.

Whatever do you mean? Pride asked innocently.

You know what I'm talking about. Edward says that he doubts she died, and usually, he is right. So tell me what you know, or I'll get angry, and believe me, you don't want to see that.Roy threatened.

Fine, fine. Well, I'm assuming you remember Tucker, right? Pride relented.

Yeah. Roy said.

Well Dante has teamed up with Tucker, and now they are making something along the lines of a Chimera Homunculus that can speak and function normally, though I don't know how far they've gotten. I was banished to the gate after I learned of what they were planning because they didn't want me ruining their plans. Pride explained.

WHAT! Why would Tucker agree to team up with Dante?Roy questioned.

Well apparently she promised him that she would be able to revive his daughter and wife if he agreed to work with her.Pride stated.

But bringing back the dead isn't possible, he should know that! Doesn't he know that she is just using him? Roy stated shockingly.

Probably somewhere deep in his conscious he does, but he really wants to be with his daughter and wife again that he won't stop at anything. Pride explained.

He is just going to be tossed aside when she is done. And we need to stop them at all costs. This could turn out really bad in the future. Anyway, thanks for the information. Roy declared.

Whatever. Hopefully you will use it wisely. Pride said.

Mustang slowly opened his eyes, and everyone tensed. "What I have to say isn't pretty, and might come as a shock," Mustang started, "but Dante has teamed up with Tucker and they are planning to make Chimera Homunculi, that are able to speak and behave normally. Before you ask, the reason why Tucker joined up with Dante is because she promised him that she will bring back not only his daughter, but his wife too, and therefore he is blinded," Roy stated seriously.

Everyone's mouth just stayed hung open, and no one was able to say a word.
