So it's been a while...

Hey guys, I'm back! ^^

Here's a fanfic I've been wanting to write for a while, I hope you like it! I love the Russia/China pairing, and the whole relationship they have. I kind of wanted to approach it from a dark-but-hopeful kind of angle. The other chapters are currently being written so for now I give you the prologue -DUN DUN DUUN-

Disclaimer: I do not own Hetalia (well duh).

Prologue

It was all over.
As the fires blazed, their harsh orange glow was reflected in the man's dark eyes. A single tear left his cheek as he watched his people flee in fear for their lives. This tear lead to sobs as the Chinese flag began to burn.
"No...no..."
He wept as he fell to his knees, despair grasping his heart as all hope left him. Desperately, he tried to stand once more, but in the hysteria brought from defeat, all his power had gone. Stumbling, he fell forwards, landing on his face.

A figure emerged from the hell which lay before him. The long scarf which swayed in the storm instantly gave away the man's identity.
Russia.
The fearsome nation grew closer towards Yao's trembling body. Hearing the footsteps become louder, the man looked up, his eyes filled with hate.
"Why?..." he cried with rage, raising his shivering arm upwards, momentarily grabbing the bottom of Ivan's coat before falling in weakness.
He couldn't.
Yao couldn't bear it.
He didn't even have to see it to know it was there.
That cold, evil smile plastered on Ivan's face.
He hated that smile.
Ivan crouched down as close to the other nation's level as possible, and cupped his face condescendingly.
"So you belong to me now, da?" That innocent sounding voice hid the brutal nature of the country so well. Yao snarled, spitting in Ivan's face.
"N-no..." he growled defiantly. However, internally, Yao was certainly not feeling that confident. The truth was, Russia terrified him. Yao trembled as he felt Ivan's grip on him tighten.
"Yes, you work for me now, da." He taunted mockingly, as he grabbed Yao by his hair, chuckling menacingly as he dragged him along the muddy fields. As he heard the other nation shriek in pain, a sadistic smirk formed on Ivan's lips.

"Victory is mine."

It was within the early hours of the morning at which Yao stirred. Writhing in sharp pain, he gave a gasp as he tried to move. He realised he was in his room. Had it all been a dream? A nightmare which was no more? The sight of Ivan's tall, unsettling figure crushed any hope or optimism that Yao had.
"Y-You..." He snapped, partially in shock as he had not noticed the man entering.
"Ah, you're awake, finally." Russia sounded happy. This was never a good sign. "So we can go now, da?"
The smaller nation looked up, confused. "What do you mean, we?" he grumbled though gritted teeth. He didn't like where this was going.
"To Russia."
No.
This couldn't be happening.
"I made an agreement with your boss. My forces leave providing I get control over the country, and therefore, you. Da?" A letter was placed in Yao's hand by Ivan, who wore a cruel smile.
"...my boss?" As Yao read the letter, tears beginning to build up in his eyes. There was no escape. He could not defy his bosses orders.
Russia walked towards the door to leave the room. "Your things have been packed, we leave tonight." As always, there was not a single trace of remorse in his tone.
Now that Russia had left, Yao could finally let out the pain he felt through his sobs. Never in his life had he felt this scared. Miserably, he curled up in the bed, hiding himself behind the sheets.

"What do I do?"

Yao considered what life would be like at Russia's house. He shuddered, trembling at the thought of a lifetime of slavery. He then looked back to the letter.

"What can I do?"

There was only one thing he could do.
And that was to cry.
Yao cried softly to himself as he came to understand that if he was to save his people, he would have to sacrifice himself.

Everyone loves a bit of psycho Russia~

Sorry it's a bit short, there will be more soon - I promise!

But if you could spare a few moments of your time and leave a review (not that there's much to review XD) I would love to hear your thoughts on what the hell is happening here XDD

Sayonara~
