He heads to one of his many transmutation circles only to be met by the Elric brothers, who have deduced his location by noticing a pattern in his movements, but before they can engage him once more, the Freezing Alchemist puts his plan into effect and - with an odd new display of Alchemical power, causes each of his Transmutation Circles around the city to react simultaneously, erupting in gigantic, growing mountains of ice. He is discovered by Colonel Mustang, who he identifies as the "Flame Alchemist" but escapes capture by using his ability to transmute water to counter Roy's flame alchemy.

However, he is drawn into a trap when Edward arrives and displays his own impressive abilities - performing alchemy without a circle and resisting Freezing's boiling alchemy with the use of his Automail right arm.
