Chapter 1 – The Start
One day, in a dimension not so different from the one of our beloved nations…
"Hey, Bella! Stop for a sec!" For a short moment the belarussian girl stopped the packing of her paperwork and looked up, first not spotting the source of the voice.
The world meeting was just finished and most of the nations where now quickly leaving the room, her brother had went out already and most of them where now following. Well, all except Germany, who had fallen asleep during the meeting and, since no one felt the need to wake him up, Belarus suspected he would probably still sit there an hour later.
Most of the others were blocking the view when leaving when she heard the call again.
"Just wait a second Bella!" Now she recognized the voice and smiled.
"Don't worry Italy, I´ll wait here!", she called back over the talking of the others and smiled, while she packed the paperwork for when she would left.
And then she finally saw the blond hair with the particular curl sticking out, and a brightly smiling Italian made his way to her, in the now nearly empty room.
"Hey Bella, how was your day? I hope you are well, and if not, and did my best to sweeten your day now!", he happily proclaimed and without any further talking handed her a packet, his smile lighting up the whole room.
She chuckled in response. "Now, my day went very well, thanks Darling! There weren't even many problems at my house today!"
She couldn't help but join his smile, which never failed to cheer her up after a hard day. And he seemed happy to see his friend like that.
"That's great! Well, then your day is going to be even better Bella!" Bella. Another thing that always made her smile, seeing the Italian using her nickname as a compliment and vise versa.
Then she took a look at the package.
"And… What is that? What do you made for me again Flavio?" Her smile went into a smirk. "How often…"
"It will look great on you, I promise! And instead of this grandmother rosé you could really need some other colours! Like…", he opened the box with a dramatic fashion, "A pastel shade of orange! Extravagant, but still definitely decent enough for you and the colour being just as warm as your smile!"
She sighed, but still looked with awe at the beautiful dress.
"How can I thank you for this, its so pretty!"
"Oh please, you don't have to! You love I love making clothes for you, and your happy reaction is enough for me!", he responded and blew her a kiss, "Enjoy Bella! I now need to hurry, or else my brother is going to be mad again, but we will see each other tomorrow!" With a dramatic swing on his heels he turned around and hurried out of the room, where his younger brother had left minutes ago.
While Belarus was left behind.
She wasn't in a hurry to get home, since her brother was already at the house they were staying for the meetings already, and so she decided to just take a walk for the moment.
After politely waking up Germany from his sleep and telling him that the meeting was long over.
She slowly went down the street, looking at the shops on the side and enjoying the calm, autumn afternoon, the smell of the rain from before in the air and the cold water under her feet, the sun now shining through the clouds though.
The rays of light shining on her a letting the young woman look like an angel, bathing her light blonde hair in a golden shine and warming her up.
"A surprisingly nice day!", she hummed and nearly felt sad when she got close to her temporary residence, getting dragged down by her thoughts since she knew her siblings would wait. And most likely discuss something in an overly… passive aggressive manner.
She let out a sigh and dragged herself to the door, unlocking it as slowly as she could and actually surprised when she didn't heard a discussion in the background.
"Hello? Victor? Irina?" She looked around the rooms, just to finally find a note on the door to the living room.
"Out shopping… Okay, that's a nice change, they actually went together!" Belarus smile came back and her day went from good to great.
"That is really lovely! A good day at my place, a new dress from Flavi, and my siblings get along for once! Jehey!" She let out a happy squeal and spinned across the room. And while she enjoyed having the house for herself for once she decided to first try her new dress on.
With a smile she looked over herself in the mirror, the dress not being much different from her old one, but definitely having Flavios extravagant touch with the wavy bow around the waist, decorated with her name written on the end in a small elegant font.
"Anastasia… Oh Darling, you never cease to surprise me", she giggled and spinned around the room again, letting herself fall on the couch.
"This is a nice day…" She smiled to herself as she slowly drifted away, blissfully unaware of her surroundings.
And so she barely realized the wind that started to flow around her.
"Mh? Did I left the door maybe open?", she though and looked up just long enough to see herself being caught in black.
"What the… What? What is going on?" Still half asleep, but already slightly panicking she looked around her, just to see the darkness has build itself all around the girl.
"What? No, no no no please no. God no please get me out get me out!" Her slight panic had turned into hysteria by now and as the ground below her faded she could nothing do but scream as she fell...
