Al fights Barry the Chopper whilst Ed faces Slicer the Homicide, both of which are souls of murderers affixed to armor. Ed struggles in his battle due to his automail breaking due to a bolt Winry had forgotten to add, and is particularly troubled when his opponent turns out to be a pair of brothers. Al initially has the advantage in his fight, until Barry suggests that he never existed and was just a doll made by Ed. Al contemplates this as a possibility, since Ed had something he was afraid to tell him. Ed manages to defeat Slicer by using Scar's destruction technique, but before he can get any information the two brothers, they are killed by Lust and Envy. Ed tries to fight back, but his automail arm breaks and he gets knocked out by Envy. Before Barry can get the upper hand on Al, he is saved by Ross and Brosh. Envy and Lust destroy the lab, but not before carrying Ed out and handing him over, since he is an important sacrifice.
