RoyShow yourself, Envy!
Roy
Come out now! Otherwise I'm going to ignite your bone marrow!
[Envy comes out, disguised as Hughes.]
EAEnvy [as Hughes]
Hey, Roy. What's up?
[Roy freezes for a second.]
[thinking] Stupid human! He won't kill his friend!
[Roy, furious, blasts the transformed Envy with fire.]
AGH! WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?! YOU DIDN'T EVEN HESITATE TO INCINERATE YOUR BEST FRIEND!
Roy
Maes Hughes is dead. That's a fact. And you invoke his image... you must be a glutton for punishment!
[Roy blasts Envy with a fireball, slamming him into a wall.]
DAMN! I'll show you real punishment!
[Envy charges towards Roy, who calmly ignites Envy's eyes again.]
AAH! NOT AGAIN! AGH...! MY EYES! THEY'RE GONE!
Roy
So I'm curious. Were you trying to get close so I wouldn't use heavy fire? No one told you I could do pinpoint aiming? Too bad for you... BECAUSE I CAN! [Roy blasts Envy with flame once again.]
Roy
You coming back? You'll be left behind... Who's that? A war buddy?
No it's... It's an Ishvallan child... One left dead with no where to call home...
Roy
Let's go... The war is over now.
The fighting maybe, but the nightmares of what we did in this place are far from over. They'll stay with me for as long as I live...I believed in you, trusted you with my father's research, and I applied to the military academy because I hoped to help other people. The way things turned out...it's not what I wanted, but there's no escaping the truth. I can never atone for the suffering I've caused...I have a favor to ask, Mustang. Please, burn this off... Deface my back.
[Envy is crying and screaming sobbing]
DAMN...! DAMMIT! DAMMIT! I've been humiliated...! HUMILIATED! ME, Envy, jealous of YOU?! Of you humans?! I'm a Homunculus! How can this pipsqueak kid see through me? It's the ultimate humiliation...! [starts chuckling] I guess we'll see how long this adorable little alliance of yours can hold up! Oh well, best of luck with that, pipsqueak. [Envy forcibly removes his Philosopher's Stone and shatters it, turning into dust] Goodbye... Edward... Elric… [With that, Envy is gone]
Roy
So he took his own life. What a coward.
You have done well, my faithful sacrifices.
[eyes widening in shock] You mean you actually did it?
[now in a new body fashioned after a much younger Hohenheim] Yes. I have done what I set out to do: acquire God.
Acquire God?! That is impossible!
Unfortunately, it is, given a great enough amount of energy.
Wait, what energy? [he gasps in a horrified realization] THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE?!
It can't be! Does this mean everyone was turned into a Philosopher's Stone?
How many lives were sacrificed for this?
Roy
Amestris is a large country; at least fifty million people.
[May gasps, absolutely mortified]
Roy
What happened? Is it over? Did we win?
Yes, sir. Although, Alphonse hasn't returned from the other side.
It's not your fault, May. It was his decision.
Ed, I've got the toll for him. Take it, it's a Philosopher's Stone. Use it to bring him back.
I can't. As much as I want to, I can't. I promised Al. We'd never use a Philosopher's Stone. [Thinking] There has to be a way to get him back. There's got to be, think dammit. Think it through, just keep thinking.
Edward... Use my life for the toll. Use me to save Alphonse. I've got just enough life left.
No way! I could never do that, you dumbass! This doesn't have anything to do with you. It's our own damn fault. I won't use another human life to get Al back. And I don't care who's at it! Why should you sacrifice your life for our mistakes?!
Because I'm his father. And that's the only thing that matters. You don't know how much you boys mean to me. I just want you to be happy. And I do bare some responsibility for this, this might not have happened if I'd just been there for you. I'm sorry, Ed. I've lived long enough. Just give me this chance, to act like a father for once in my life.
Shut up, you rotten father! You say something that dumb again, and I'll knock you out!
I take it you're here to retrieve your brother. Just how to you plan on pulling an entire human out of here? What's your payment? Do you intend to offer your own body?
Yeah, I've got your payment right here, so go ahead and take it! This thing is my Portal of Truth. So I get to make the decision on how it's used. That right?
Hehehehe! It's come to that? Hehehehahaha! And you're sure about this? You do realize that you'll never be able to perform alchemy again without your portal.
I'm aware of that. This portal, I know it contains every secret alchemy has to offer. However, it's also led me astray. I saw the truth that lies within it. And I became convinced I could solve everything with alchemy, but I couldn't possibly have been more wrong. That was just arrogance.
You're willing to cast it aside? To lower yourself to a simple human?
What do you mean lower myself? That's the only thing I've ever been, just a simple human that couldn't save a little girl, not even with alchemy.
You sure you'll be okay without it? Think carefully now!
Roy
Fullmetal!
Who even needs alchemy, when I've got them!
[Gasping in excitement as he and Ed's door fade] You've done it! That's the right answer! Good job! You beat me! Go ahead! Take him home! The back door's right over there! Goodbye, Edward Elric!
[Ed’s Gate and Truth disappear, Ed sees Al]
Haha, speak for yourself.
Now let's go home, together...
