CHAOS: I know I should be working on my other stories-

Mizuki: You think?

Ren:*hits Mizuki*Let her finish.

CHAOS: Any way, I have severe writers block for all of the fandoms except for Hetalia as I haven't had access to the net for a month of two and the only things I've been able to access where at school and it's all Hetalia so yeah. Any way I made this new story thing, it's going to be on complete just for reference since it's ALL oneshots, and I'll update sporadically.

Ren:*sarcastically*And today's lucky country is*a drum roll is heard in the background*NORWAY!

Norway:*suddenly apears*What the-?

Mizuki: Run. Run for your life.

CHAOS: TOO LATE! DISCLAIMER WOLF-BOY!

Mizuki:*sighs*OneofcompleteCHAOS doesn't own Hetalia-Axis Powers.

Norway: I am still confused as to how I got here...

Summery: This is literally how I think Norway got his cross. I might do something later dictating how. I don't know. Rating: K

~*~!~*~!~Norway's Cross~*~!~*~!~

No one knew how or when Norway got his cross, though there were plenty of theories out there. Some of the nations thought it was something he got from his Viking days, some thought that it had some spiritual connection to the cold blonde (they all had one after all), and some-mostly the Nordics-thought that he was simply born with it.

Another thing about the cross that intrigued everyone, was the fact that if you tried to touch it, no matter if you were close to him or what he was doing, you would have a rather sharp knife at your neck. It also was interesting to them in the fact that he never took it off and you never saw him without it. So when, at the Nordics family gathering, he came into the room without it on, the four were shocked.

"Why are you staring at me?" Norway asked.

"Um, you aren't wearing your cross…" Denmark said, trying to figure out why he wasn't wearing it.

"I can't find it. It probably fell off the table in the night," Norway stated, grabbing some cereal for his breakfast.

Norway looked different without the clip in his hair. Instead of being back, the other half of his bangs was a loud to fall in front of his eyes and covered his ear. He still had the curl floating next to his head but it was a bit harder to spot when you weren't looking for it directly.

This happened for the next several days and by the third day, they could tell that Norway was getting jumpy no matter what he said. Denmark was the first to say anything.

"Hey, Norge, you sure that you don't want to look for your clip? We'll help you look for it," he offered as the Norwegian jumped.

"No, I'm sure that it will turn up soon," Norway stated, looking around the room anxiously.

The other four looked at each other with worry in their eyes, Norway was starting to scare them with how he was acting.

Iceland walked down the hall to the kitchen to grab a midnight snack of licorice when he heard something coming from Norway's room. He knocked on the door, "Hey are you alright, Nor?"

"I'm fine, Island, don't worry," Norway's voice said through the door. Iceland frowned, Norway hardly ever said something to him without calling him little brother, 'Just why is he so worried about that cross?'

Iceland went and got his licorice and walked back through the hall. He paused at Norway's door to listen and see if he was still up and heard him muttering to himself in Norwegian. Figuring that he could at least try to get Norway to get to sleep, Iceland opened the door and his eyes widened. The room was completely destroyed and Norway was sitting in the middle of the room with his head between his knees.

"Nor."

Norway's head snapped up and Iceland noticed the circles under his eyes for the first time. "What are you doing in here, Island?"

"You need to get to sleep, Norway, you look exhausted and need to stop worrying about that cross," Iceland said, trying to drag the older to the bed that had the bedding completely disheveled and scattered.

"No I have to find it. I can't lose it," Norway said pulling his arm back and shaking his head.

"Then let me help because you're starting to scare me."

Norway looked up at Iceland and nodded slowly as he let his arm go. The two looked around the room again, this time placing everything back where it belonged.

After searching through most of the room all that remained was a pile of bed sheets and the bed itself. Iceland handed a sheet to Norway to look through it as he searched through another. All of the sheets were taken out of the pile and folded in a stack at the foot of the bed. Norway sat on the bed and pulled his legs up to his chest.

"I really lost it," he murmured into his legs.

Iceland watched him, "Nor it can't be lost completely. It has to be here somewhere since you had it the day before you lost it."

Norway nodded but didn't lift his head from his knees. Iceland looked down at the ground and blinked, he could have sworn that he just saw a sparkle come from under the bed. Iceland knelt down by the bed and felt under the bed. His hand came into contact with an object that felt a lot like a cross. He pulled it out from under the bed and looked at the cross that had caused so much panic in the older nation.

"Nor, I found it."

Norway's head snapped up from his knees and he reached for the cross and held it in his hands as tears ran down from his eyes.

"Norway, why is that cross so important to you?" Iceland asked, sitting next to the other on the bed.

Norway was quite for several moments, "Because she gave it to me."

"Who gave it to you?"

"Scandinavia. She found me when I was just a new country and completely alone. She showed up and gave me clothes and before she left, she gave me this cross as her promise to return." Norway rubbed his eyes to try and stop the tears but they kept coming, "She never did return and I guess I keep it as a hope that she will return one day."

Iceland rubbed his brother's back as he cried, unable to think of anything else to do. How would he have felt if Norway hadn't kept his promise to return when he got indolence from Denmark? Iceland didn't know and he didn't want to know now.

The next day, Sweden, Finland, and Denmark were relieved to see that Norway had returned to semi-normal and had the cross back in his hair, though they did wonder why Iceland was calling Norway 'Big Brother' of his own free will…

~*~!~*~!~Oh how the world has fallen when line breaks aren't here~*~!~*~!~

CHAOS: This was a completely random thing that popped into my mind some time ago.

Norway:*looking around room*Why am I here?

Mizuki:*pats Norway's back*It's too late. She wasn't kidding about that.

Ren: R&R.
