Tucker had left the house at a leisurely pace until he disappeared from the view range of it. Holding Nina by the hand and tugging Alexander along on the leash, he turned from the busy street down towards the deserted warehouses and labs.
Nina soon starts to be afraid, but he sooths her and silences Alexander's barking by a rough tug at the leash.
He arrives at the doors of the 5th Laboratory and knocks hesitantly - hoping that nobody will be mad for him coming earlier than he was told. He starts to get nervous and a bit afraid himself.
Doubt crawls up his back, leaving goosebumps on its way up his spine and he shivers. Cold sweat runs down at the sides of his face - is this right?
He swiftly thinks about fleeing, but at the same time he stops. He tells himself to be a man and if this creature has the information about the Philosopher's stone, he will be quite a powerful man too. And famous. AND acknowledged. AND- What do THEY want in exchange for the information?!
His grip on Nina's hand tightens and the little girl senses her father's discomfort. She asks loudly, in a child's voice full of fear: "Daddy! Daddy, can we go home?"
He replies in a low whisper: "Hush, darling, Daddy will protect you..."

The door suddenly opened. A long, dark and cold corridor was to be seen behind them. And there stood Envy. He looked at the both sides of the street. Empty. *I'm glad you've come,* he then said to Tucker. *You have made the right choice. Come quicky inside, we cannot let them duscover our position!* He lead them inside. The door closed and locked. There was no way back now.

Nina presses tightly to Tucker's leg and starts to cry, sobbing: "Daddy. Daddy! I am afraid! Let's go home!"
Tucker knows there's no way back, so he just soothes Nina by caressing her hair.
Alexander barks loudly at Envy and Tucker has to hold him down on the leash.
Tucker looks to Envy. He can't deny he is afraid, but he is no longer doubtful.

*Follow me Mr. Tucker. I will show you the place, where you will carry out the research.* He went through the corridor. *We have a laboratory here, one you have never seen before. The military underestimated your talent, but we will use it here. The time of great deeds have come!*

He strolls around, guided by Envy - his mouth slightly gaped open. Nina holds tightly to his hand and sobs continuously, while Alexander growls towards the homunculus. "So..." Tucker asks cautiously, trying to shoo the quiver out of his voice, "What will you have me to do... Create the Philosopher's stone? For you? Are you an alchemist?"

Wrath:
Wrath suddenly appeared from the shadows and strolled up to Envy's side. "What would you like me to do." he asked Envy with an evilsh child grin on his face. Though he didn't know what exactly was going on he had a feeling this would attract that boy whose arm and leg he had. Maybe I can finally take his other arm and leg from him. He thought excitedly.

((myslím že na noze))
Envy stoped and laughed. He turned to Tucker. *Alchemist? Me?* he laughed once again. *No! I am something more. But I cannot do alchemy. That is why we need you. And yes. You will create the philosophers stone. Now, follow me and...*
He stoped once again. He looked at the small child in amazement. *Who...?* He was stunned. He saw the lines an his arms and legs, as he had. He saw his purple eyes. *This cannot be!* he whispered. *Are you... are you Homunculi?*

(( I am playing as Homunculi Wrath already since we don't have a Izumi))
"Oh, you didn't know. Sloth sent me, she didn't think you could do this on your own without messing it up." Wrath responded iwith cockiness and a evil child laugh.
"So what do you want me to do?"

*But... why didn't she tell me so? How...?* He shook his head. *No matter, it's good thing you are with us. Finally!* He calmed down a bit. *There isn't much for us to do, right now. In Lior everything is going as planned and...* he went with Wrath aside, whispering so Tucker couldn't hear. *He,* pointing at The Sewing life alchemist, *must do some job here. Then we must attract the Full Metal shortie to this place. We only need some patience. What did Sloth tell you?*

Wrath whispered back to Envy "Not a whole lot more then that. I don't really know what is going on here and I really don't care, I just want that boy to get here so I can finally get what I want from him." He said with a devilish glint in his eye.

"Thats fine with me. Makes the taking much easier."Wrath said with a evil grin. "What are we supposed to do with them?" Pointing at Tucker, Nina and Alexander. He smiled at Nina evilly.

*These are to prepare the grounds for the Elric boy,* whispered Envy back to Wrath. Then he came to Tucker. *Now, Mr. Sewing-life, follow me! We have much work to do!*

In the meantime he stood there, dumb folded There's... MORE of them... of, of... "H-homunculi!" He had read that name somewhere, once. He never paid attention to it, but one thing still clinging to his mind when such was mentioned, was fear.
He thinks of a quick run for the door, using the time given by the two monsters whispering to each other. He lets go of Alexander's leash and grabs crying Nina into his arms. His creeped out face gives him away and his quick launch for the locked door makes it obvious enough.
What have I got us into! Oh no!

Wrath notices a chunk of metal laying on the floor and transmutes it to his arm so it becomes a sharp knife. He walks behind Tucker with his knife arm visible to Tucker. "If you try run again I will get you with this." Wrath threatens him with an evil sneer. "Your my ticket to that Elric boy and I won't let you go until I get what I want from him."

Freaks out big time - shoves Nina behind himself if that lil freak was about to stab.
No threats from his side yet - he is a too big piece of a coward, even this run was a record on his scale.
He looks uneasily at Envy: "F-fine... show me to the laboratory..."

*Please, Mr Tucker,* said Envy in calm voice. *It is really a stupid thing to try to run. Afterall, we are on the same boat. We have the same goal, don't we?* He comes closer to him, looking straight at Nina. *But if yoiu would want to repeat this kind of stupidity, I fear that the little one will have to suffer,* he threatened him, smirking.

He covers Nina up with his bigger frame as she only stares in horror.
Tries to sound like he's got himself under control, which he doesn't: "T-take me to the lab t-then."

*Then follow me!* Envy leads him through another door, leading to next corridor. He points to the door to the left. *There you will be doing your chimera research. We have everything needed. There was one alchemist here before you, but he abandoned the research. He left a lot of... things behind. You can continue in his path.* Then he continued forward. He opened another door. *And here is the main thing!* He lead him to an immense room, filled with alchemistic arrays and containers with red water. *We had already started, but you must finish this!* He went to one container and turned the tap. A drop of red water fell down, turning solid as it hit the ground. Envy picked it up and handed to Tucker.
