Martel gripped her weapon tightly, still prepared to strike. But at Kimblee's words, she turned to Greed. Should they listen to the former State Alchemist or not?

GREEDO
He have heard Kimbley, and took one step back. Only one. These brutes in front of him seemed to be no problem. *And who are you dear sir?* he mocked the leader of the group. *A tomb thief I presume. Or some other rat, that have stepped in the wrong corridor? You should turn back, or somebody may get hurt.*

As Greed stepped back, Martel stepped forward, raising the metal bar that was still clenched in her hand. "You should listen to him" she hissed to the thugs in front of them. She looked at Greed and said, "If you want to leave, you can".

"Dear brother," called the voice. The long, resounding vocals of a blade escaping it's home shimmer through the air. "Do you not recognize my voice?"

Martel felt her body become more tense. She recognized the sound of a blade being taken from its sheath, from years of doing it herself. She glanced at Greed, her eyes telling him that he could run at anytime, before readying herself to attack.

((Alright... I have a feeling that Pride was created AFTER Greedo was sealed, so they are not supposed to know each other. But what da hell...))
GREEDO
*No, but I have a feeling that I guess correctly who you are, since you know my name,* said Greedo while grinning widely. *Now this is something we'll all enjoy!* He took of the coat and let it fall on the ground. Taking several steps forward, he changed his body completely, gaining very dark blue colour and diamond hardness. His long teeth clicked together. *You can hide that sword, 'cos you'll just break it.*

(( Whoops, oh yeah. Well, let's just flow with it. Besides, Dante sent Pride here on a specific mission to kill Greed, so he does at least have some background. And while we're at it, why do you call him GreedO?))
"You realize you're making our dear mother worry?" He said, a few lights coming back on and illuminating the corridor. "I would suggest you come back, before you anger her..." Fuhrer Bradly took a few steps forward, the armed soldiers around him following and taking aim at the two. Kimblee, still hidden around the corner slipped around the side of them, positioning himself in a dark corner around the area between Greed and Bradly.

((The same reason why I use name Scar-san. Just to be a bit different...  And Envy stays Envy, I couln't think of any addon)) GREEDO *So she has another Homonculi at her disposal?* he ask sniggering. *And what your name may be? Wrath not, I've heard that is a little brat. So who are you? Sloth? Pride? Lust?* He took another step forward. *Or did she finally invent something original, something else than a deadly sin? Oh, I'm a shepard of the sins!* Greeedo mimicked Dantes voice. *Pretty dull, don't you think my friend?* |

"Pride's my sin, if you wish to call it that." Using this time to forge a plan of attack, Pride heeds Greed's words and sheaths his court sword, realizing exactly what his skin was made out of. "I'd call it more a virtue, if you ask me." The soldiers to his left and right stand at the ready, fingers on their triggers. Some of them, however, seem confused. It seems Pride forgot that these soldiers are human. ((whoops)) No matter. "As for Dante's naming skills, at the very least if she makes another of us she'll have to think of something new," Pride smirked.

"Greed...." Martel whispered as she watched him become covered in the black material. "How....". She shook her head slightly and blinked, unable to speak. She looked at Bradley, now able to see his face more. Martel hissed as she felt a surge of anger rush through her. "You" she hissed glaring daggers at the Fuhrer.

GREEDO
*What do you mean?* Greedo's eyes widdened. *You mean there are seven of us already?* So he'll have to fight six of homonculus to get to Dante. And that was something he doubted he'll succeed any time soon. He'll have to gather a lot of allies and servants if he was to finish her off. *Well, but I think Dante will be spared of any dilema of naming her next sin. It will bear the name Pride, and only one of us is getting alive from this meeting. I hope you understand.*

Martel suddenly lost control of herself, her anger was surging through her. In a fit of rage she lunged at Pride, extending her arm to knock him to the ground. The metal bar was still clenched tight in her other hand, and she prepared to shove it into Pride when she got close enough. "You're going to pay for what your soliders did to us!" she screamed at him, lifting the bar and once again jumping towards him.

Pride's eye squinted, "Child, you need to learn your place, especially when the grown-ups are talking." Without hesitation, the soldiers each fired on the lunging chimera. 10 machine guns blaring at her, not to mention Pride's own court sword, positioned in a way to slice through her extending arm, and his free hand empty so as to grab the bar should she somehow make it that far. Kimblee, here without any ammo, drew back and went around to flank Pride and his minions from behind.

At the bullets being fired and the sword being unleashed, Martel gasped. By some miracle she was able to dodge most of the bullets and manage to whip her arm away. However, a bullet did fly into her shoulder. The snake-chimera was only able to get behind Greed once again before she fell to the ground, holding her bleeding shoulder.

"You should keep your pet on a leash, or perhaps a cage. We ARE in a prison of sorts, after all." Pride sheathed his sword, and began to step forward. "Kimblee, you pathetic waste of flesh. Don't even bother trying that." Kimblee froze in place. How the hell did he see him, especially being on Pride's blind side? "As for you, Greed..." his face brightened as an idea came into his head. "It's so sad that two of my brethren have to die, but such is the fate of a traitor."

Martel winced in pain as she felt the blood dripping from her shoulder. Her eyes were filling with tears, but she couldn't tell why. Because she was hurt? No. She had been hurt before and she never cried. "Because I failed" she whispered sadly. That was why. She had tried to take revenge for her comrades and protect Greed, and she had failed.

GREEDO
*Stay back!* Greedo shouted at Martel. He stepped right between the files and her, his carbon body protecting her. *You are not immortal, so don't do anything foolish!* He was not angry at her, her leap attack was reckless, but sign of loyalty. And that was a good sign indeed.
*What did you say, Pride?* he sneered at the homonculi before him. *Did another of you run away? Who is he?* His heart beated fast. If on of the sin break up from Dante's group, maybe he could find him and convince to join him. A homonculi sounded like a powerfull aly.

Pride smirked gleefully, in a creepy sort of way. His tone became that of an obvious lead, "Whoops, it appears I've said too much. Oh well, not like you'd look for her anyway, considering she's with those Elric boys." He turned to his armored companions, resting his hand on his eye patch. "Lady Dante, it was too late." The soldiers around him lowered their weapons, staring into his eye.
"By the time I got there, Greed had already fled the scene, that coward." His smirk quickly dropped from his expression, stopping dead center of the group. "However, there were a few stray chimera that apparently knew of... us, and since my troops overheard them...I had no choice." He continued walking through the crowd of armored men, each of them turning to face him. By the time he stepped into the shadows, disappearing from sight, all ten of the soldiers suddenly fell to pieces, literally.
And from the shadows, a flying length of bandage and a small stick find their way between Greed's legs and to Martel's feet.

Martel looked at the items that landed near her. She knew what she was supposed to do with them. But she doubted she would be able to dress her own wound, so looking up at Greed she asked, "Can you help me with this?"
At the mention of Chimera, she froze. Terror swept over her and it showed in her face. What happened to Loa and Dorochette? "What have you done to them?" she yelled into the shadows, trying to stretch her arm.
But, as it was arm with the injured shoulder, all her stretching did was cause the wound to bleed even more. Yelling in pain, Martel retracted her arm, and grabbed her shoulder once again, trying to stop the bloodflow slightly. However, she knew that the wound would have to be dressed before she lost too much blood.

GREEDO
CHIMERAS
He was frozen as Pride was leaving the scene. But he was not reckless and did not follow him. He wasn't a fool, and will not risk any trap. He didn't changed his form and while staying in hard-carbon body he leaned over Martel and examined the wound. *Brave act, yet foolish,* he whispered to her, as he tended her injury. He wasn't any kind of medic, but had some common knowledge about first aid. *Promise me, that you will think better next time.* he said to her. He didn't have wish to lose what seemed to be his most loyal ally and she was also a women. A women...
Loa, Dorchet, Bido and the others were in the lab with the Sewing-life waiting for their new master to arrive.
*What's taking them so long?* Loa asked in worry.
*Don't worry, Martel will take care of him,* Dorchet assured him, patting his shoulder.
*Yeah, I bet she will. Did you notice the looks they exchanged before. I could feel the love in the air,* Bido laughed.
*Anything for Martel to be happy. And I trust this guy,* Dorchet shrugged shoulders. *His enemies are our enemies. We are together in this.*
