The sky was blue, grass was green all was peaceful. It was beautiful day and no one could resist going outside to have a fun time well all except America who was staring at the TV screen and hiding behind a pillow.
"Dude that is so scary!" he wailed jumping behind his couch.
"Next on our Harold Horror Hinders marathon we look into The Stairwell" the TV blurted out showing a video of a couple of stairs with bad graphics.
"Dude that looks so awesome!" America jumped up from behind the couch. The next hour or so watching the screen as it told stories of how even the bravest of people ran out screaming from just walking down a few stairs.
"I totally have the greatest idea ever!" he shouted running out of the room to call his fellow nations. America picked up his phone and pressed speed dial number one.
"Bill's Burger Bungalow, would you like to order?" a voice said over the line.
"Opps sorry wrong number" America apologised then hung up he then pressed number two.
"Peter's Perfect Pizza and Burger, what would you like order?" the voice said.
"Crap, sorry wrong number" America apologised again and went on with speed dial number three.
"Bill's Burger Bungalow, would you like to order?" was said once again. America just hung up the phone and went searching for his phone book. When he had found his phone book he called up the Allied Forces for an 'important' meeting.
"This better bloody be good America I had other work to do" England said with his arms crossed.
"Me too" France announced.
"Drinking wine and stalking one of the Italian brothers doesn't count as work!" England shouted from across the table disgusted from what the Frenchmen would call work.
"At least I can hold my liquor" France snapped back.
"Can we just get on with the meeting" China cut in.
"Yes I would very well like to know what's happening" Russia commented. ? also said something but nobody heard them.
"I have another idea to take down the Axis Powers" America announced.
"YOU CALLED US HERE FOR THAT!" England shouted placing both hand on the table.
"Please tell me this isn't another mega chicken plan, last time it gave England hallucinations" France sighed and pointed at the now fuming Brit.
"IT WASN'T A HALLUCINATION" England protested.
"Nope this one's even better" America pleaded. America went to work on explaining his plan to the others which took about 10 minutes.
"So where rocking them in a stairwell?" China said trying to understand the overall plan.
"Yep but that's only one part of the plan" America smirked evilly.
"You've been watching those ghost stories again haven't you?" England asked planting a hand on his forehead.
"Come on guys what could go wrong" America exclaimed.
"I kind of want to try this plan" Russia chimed in.
"Righty-o lets go shall we" England said and quickly walked out of the room as if someone was holding a gun to his head.
"This is going to be so awesome!" America rushed out of the room after England.
"Can I have Italy if this works out?" France asked also running out of the room.
"Well isn't this pleasant" Russia said calmly walking out of the room.
"R'll bring the snacks" China smiled walking out behind Russia. ? also left but it was around the time France left or was it when America left I have no idea.
Step one: Getting Axis to the Stairwell
America and all the other were hiding behind a bush waiting for at least one of the Italian brother to walk past.
"Okay now what we need to do to get all of them there is we find a lion to chase them into a truck that will then transport them onto a plane that will bring them to the destination" America explained.
"Where would we get the Rion from?" China asked.
"Not this again!" England shouted.
"Hey isn't that Italy over there?" ? asked but nobody heard him.
"Hey isn't that Italy over there!" America shouted out and the young Italian looked back. England then grabbed America by his jacket and pulling him behind the bush again.
"Be quiet you dolt" England hushed.
"So what do we go now?" China asked.
"Should we just grab him?"
"We need a lion"
"Maybe we should send a note"
"Anyone got any paper?"
"Why don't we just get Japan?"
"But we're already here"
"Hey where did France go?" England asked looking around.
"Oh Italy!" The Frenchmen cooed making his way over to the Italian.
"France what are you doing!" England called out.
"Dude this isn't part of the plan" America said standing up.
"Ve~ France what are you doing out here?" the young Italian asked.
"Ah my little friend I vas just vondering if you were okay?" he said with a grin.
"I'm fine but why would you say that- VE~! Oh no France you can't be here Germany should be here soon and I don't want a war to start, oh no that would be bad, I SURRENDER!" Italy blurted out.
"What is he doing?" America questioned the other as where they were sitting they couldn't hear anything being said.
"It's okay my little friend I von't be here long I just vanted to-" France was cut off.
"Vat in the blazing hell are you doing here!" a very angry Germany yelled standing behind Italy.
"I vasn't doing anything I vas just- YOINK!" the Frenchmen was saying then grabbed the Italian running off.
"Holy crap, run!" America yelled running after the Frenchman as he run past holding the Italian.
"HEY GET BACK HERE WITH ITALY!" Germany called out running up to the others.
"Bloody hell France you could have just run off by yourself!" England yelled quickly following the others.
"KEEP RUNNING HE'S CATCHING UP!" America shouted looking back towards the German who was catching up fast.
"Just give back Italy and I'll leave you alone!" Germany yelled.
"Where are we going anyway?" China asked trying to keep a steady pace.
"TO THE STAIRWELL!" America answered picking up the pace.
"What is happening here?" Japan asked as everyone ran past.
"Oh it's nothing" ? replied standing next to him.
"Who are you and when did you get there?" Japan asked the strange man.
"I'm Canada" ? said.
"Maybe we should follow them" Japan said walking off with ?.
Step two: Getting into the Stairwell
"Did we just run all the way here?" China asked between breaths.
"I don't even remember running half way" England replied.
"Dude we're here, look it's the stairwell" America yelled pointing at a grey building.
"Um France I think you can put him down now" England told the Frenchmen.
"Quoi?" He asked being completely confused by the comment.
"Italy, you can put him down now" England said pointing towards the Italian. France looked down at his arms to see himself still caring Italy who had fallen asleep
"Ve~ pasta" he said in his sleep.
"Do I have too?" France asked looking back at England.
"YES!" He shouted back in Frances face.
"How are we supposed to get them in there without locking ourselves inside too?" China asked.
"We could just throw him in" Russia commented pointing at Italy.
"No please don't throw me into the creepy building, I SURRENDER!" Italy woke up but his eyes were still closed as he latching onto France who seemed to be happy about it.
"I have an idea" Russia said then grabbed England and pushed him in front of France.
"What are you doing?" England asked seeming a bit scared.
"Just trust me, now Italy why don't you open your eyes" Russia said calmly. Italy opened his eyes and blinked a few time then….
"THE BRITISH!" he cried then ran into the grey building.
"Well that was easy" England mumbled.
"But what about Germany and Japan?" China asked.
"Hey where did Germany go wasn't he right behind us?" England evaluated.
"Yes I vas" a voice said.
"Mother of god!" England almost fainted when he turned around too see Germany looming over him.
"Holy crap dude where did you come from" America quivered behind Russia.
"I'll leave you all alone if you tell me vere Italy is" Germany reasoned.
"He is- vat vas that?" France started to say then was distracted by a noise. Everyone turned around to see a lion prowling around them and it looked hungry.
"Ven did that get there?" Germany questioned then the lion pounced towards him but Germany took off towards the grey building.
"Dude the lion worked!" America yelled jumping up.
"So that's your lion?" England asked.
"Huh, no, where would I get a lion from" America said then the lion pounced again and everyone took off towards the building. As they got into the building the door slammed shut and a clicking noise was heard.
"Um I think we may be locked in" America said trying to open the door.
"Fine we will just have to find another way out" England said walking down the hallway. It was about five minutes until they hear another noise.
"Italy you're not in any danger so come down now" Germany voice rung out. As they came into sight they saw that Italy was wedged in between two pipes near the ceiling and Germany was trying to coax him out of the ceiling.
"Hey dude I think we have more of a problem" America spoke up.
"Vat is it now?" Germany asked.
"We seemed to have rocked ourselves in and we don't know how to get out" China explained.
"Vell that's just great" Germany said then turned his attention back towards Italy.
"Holy crap dude I've just realised" America whispered.
"What is it now America?" England questioned.
"We're locked inside" America whimpered.
"Yes we are locked inside that has already been established" England quipped.
"Yeah but we're locked inside the stairwell" America sobbed.
"Well all of that ghost stuff isn't real anyways, so there is nothing to- what was that?" England was interrupted during his sentence by the sounds of a child crying and it wasn't Italy.
"It sounds like a baby" Germany concluded.
"Where is it coming from?" China asked looking around.
"America do you know anything about zzis?" France questioned.
"Dude I don't know anything anymore" America quivered.
"Like you knew anything before" England said sarcastically walking around.
"Hey I think it's coming from down that stairway" Germany said inspecting the dark and gloomy stairs.
"That isn't just a stairway it The Stairwell" America whimpered.
"Well then why don't you go check it out there also might be a way out down there as well" England said slyly. Germany gave him a cold stare.
"Fine" Germany sighed.
"Yes" England said under his breath and turning around to walk back to the other but was then grabbed by the back of his jacket.
"But you're coming with me!" Germany shouted as if it was an order.
"Wait, what, no, I can't go down there" England panicked.
"And vhy not?" Germany questioned trying to get closer to trying to understand their plan.
"Dude he has no problem" America said pushing England into the stairwell.
"AMERICA YOU WANKER!" England shouted back at him. Germany just stared then walked into the stairwell.
"Make sure Italy doesn't do anything stupid vile I'm gone" Germany told them.
"Dude he'll be fine" America laughed.
"Wait you wankers help me" England pleaded.
"Get moving" Germany said as he walked past him. England glared back at America then started to follow Germany. The walls got closer together, the turns were sharper and it got darker the farer they got. As they both got to the start of the stairs they saw a type of backpack that was connected to a stick.
"What is this?" England questioned picking up. The bag was heavy and seemed to have some sort of generator placed inside of it.
"Give it here" Germany commanded grabbing the bag. Germany fiddled around with it then he found a switch. The stick connected to the bag turned out to be a torch.
"Bloody hell that's bright" England hissed covering his eyes.
"Vell at least now we can see our way down there" Germany said as he started to walk down the stairs.
"Wait we're still going down there, I can't even hear the child anymore" England exclaimed.
"Even if there is no child there still might be a way out" Germany said still proceeding down the stairs.
"Well you can go by yourself" England said turning around to go back. England took about five steps when he heard the crying again but the crying wasn't coming from the stairwell but from somewhere in front of England. It took a moment from England to realise that something was wrong then took off back towards the stairwell and ran straight into Germany.
"Vatch vere you're going" Germany sighed and continued walking down the stairs.
"Um Germany did we pass anything going down here?" England questioned grabbing onto Germanys sleave.
"No, vhy?" Germany replied. England was about to explain what he had heard when the crying started again though once again the crying had become closer much closer. Turning their heads up slowly Germany and England caught a glimpse of a pale face sitting on the ceiling before the light went out.
"TURN IT BACK ON YOU WANKER!" England panicked trying to run back up the stairs but kept tripping.
"JUST RUN!" Germany yelled and took off back up the stairs dropping the backpack. England finally found his feet and ran after Germany. England and Germany got back to the top of the stairs and sped down the hallway back to the others. Right before the last turn Germany slid into the wall leaving a dent where his shoulder hit. As Germany was collecting his strength back up and walk off England Ran into him knocking both of them off of their feet and onto the ground.
"Whoa dudes, what happened?" America asked walking over to the two.
"WHAT HAPPENED, YOUR STUPID TRAP WORKED BUT NOW WHERE TRAPPED IN HERE TOO" England shouted from the top of his lungs.
"Seriously! Dude so there is a monster down there?" America said happily.
"I KNEW IT, this vas all a trap" Germany concluded trying to get up but England was lying across his back.
"Wait, you mean America was right about there being a monster?" China questioned stepping back and holding his arm up to his head.
"YES THERE IS A MONSTER" England shouted getting off of Germany.
"Come on England you must have been having another one of your hallucinations" France said stroking Italy's hair who was sitting in Frances lap.
"Dude I've got to check this out" America said bolting down the hallway and out of sight.
"He's telling the truth there vas this white face staring down from the ceiling" Germany commented walking over to France and taking Italy from him but France wouldn't let go of him so a tug-o-war started over them.
"Should we get America back here?" China questioned looking around the corner where America took off.
"Leave him it's his fault where in this mess" England said getting up and brushing himself off.
"Ve~" Italy said still being pulled buy Germany and France.
"NOPE!" America yelled running past everyone and back towards where they had first came in.
"Well now do you believe me" England said slowly moving away from the hallway where America just came from.
"Oh come on guy it can't be that bad" Russia said calmly going to investigate. Everyone was silent as they waited for Russia to get back. As everyone was focused of Russia Germany was able to pry Italy back from France. About fifty seconds went by when Russia walked back in.
"Russia, are you okay?" China asked. Russia didn't answer but walked right past everyone and back towards the entrance.
"If Russia isn't sticking around then neither am I" England said then followed Russia.
"I zzink zzat I may go too" France stated then left as well.
"Germany I don't get it why is everybody leaving?" Italy asked but Germany didn't answer instead he just walked off like the others.
"I am not staying here" China added then left.
"Wahh why is everybody leaving, did I do something wrong I hope I didn't, Germany please come back" Italy cried out but didn't follow the other instead he turned his attention to the hallway that lead to the stairwell.
"After they went down there they wanted to leave"
: Due to his short attention span Italy hadn't been paying attention to anything that was happening around him.
Italy looked around the corner and stared down the hallway.
"Well it can't be that bad" He said than started to walk down the hallway. Nothing seemed wrong as Italy proceeded down the hallway and around every corner. Italy finally made it to the start of the stairs.
"Ve~ it's very dark down there" Italy shuddered and turned to go back when something so hideous it could scare the devil by just looking at it caught his attention. Its eyes were plain with no colour and lacked any emotion there could ever be. Its arms were long and thin as if just by touching them they would snap. It didn't have any ears or a nose that could be seen on first glance. Italy's face went white and he started crying. The sight of this monster made Italy want to lose all hope for humanity. Italy slowly opened his mouth and screamed.
"SPIDER!" and he took off down the stairway. The small spider ran down the wall in fear that Italy would come back to scream in his face. Italy ran down the stairs two steps at a time to try to get away from the scary spider. Due to it being pitch black Italy couldn't see where he was going and ran into something knocking it over as well. Italy and whatever he ran into tumbled down the stairs until they both fell into a clearing.
"That was totally not awesome" A voice grumbled. Italy looked at the person who he had run into. He was wearing a white coat and a mask was sitting on the side of his face as if he had just put it there to breathe as the mask had no holes to breathe out of.
"Ve~ Prussia what are you doing down here?" Italy asked being happy he got away from the spider.
"I vas here to scare my bruder" He said getting up and brushing himself off and took the mask off from the side of his head.
"Do you know the way out of here?" Italy questioned still wanting to leave.
"Vere is an elevator" Prussia said taking off the coat to revile Gilbird sitting on top of his head.
"Okay lets go then I don't very well like the spiders down here" Italy said the skipped over to the stairs.
"The elevator is over vere" Prussia pointed towards the metal doors placed on the wall.
"Ve~"
Step Three: Getting Out
"Why won't this door open" Germany complained pushing on the handle.
"Dude I just want to get out of here" America wailed pushing on the door as well.
"It's your entire fault where here in the first place" England scoffed as he lent against the wall.
"I said I was sorry" America whined as he started kicking the door instead.
"You never said that" England protested.
"Oh" America replied then continued to kick the door.
"WELL AREN'T YOU GOING TO APOLOGISE!" England shouted.
"Vell I don't see you helping" France interjected.
"Ditto" England replied.
"Hey where's Italy?" China questioned looking around.
"Vee left Italy behind!" Germany exclaimed then ran off back to where they had left Italy.
"Hey, what about this door?" America sighed.
"America I don't think it will open" England concluded.
"I could try" Russia said holding up a pickaxe. America got out of the way as Russia approached the door. Russia lifted his arms above his head and brought the pickaxe down with tremendous force. As the pickaxe collided with the door the top of it snapped off and flew backwards right at England's head. England fell to the floor as the top of the pickaxe hit the wall only to fall back down on top of England's head with a thump. England was then sprawled over the ground with blood dripping down from his head.
"Dude that's no good!" America panicked.
"Is he dead?" China asked poking him.
"Can I have his country?" France bounced.
"No way he's fine" America said walking over to England "HEY, WAKE UP THIS IS NO TIME FOR A NAP, YOU GOTTA HELP OPEN THE DOOR!" America shouted as he repeatedly stomped on his back.
"Ow, what the bloody hell just happened?" England moaned as he sat up. He brushed his hand through his hair only to find it wet but warm. England brought his hand back down in front of his face to see it covered in blood.
"Okay, England dude everything's going to be fine" America spoke up patting him of the back. England blinked a few times and slapped his hand away.
"Dude what was that for?"
"Who are you?" England questioned glaring at him.
"What?" America stuttered.
"This isn't going to be good" China murmured.
"Dude it's me, the mighty America" America reminded him.
"I have never met you" England declared scooting away from him.
"Do you remember moi?" France asked getting incredibly close to England's face.
"Get away from me you bloody frog" England snarled pushing the Frenchmen away with his foot.
"Well he lemembers France" China added.
"How could you not remember me?" America whined.
"Kesese you should of seen your face bruder, it vas priceless" a voice snickered coming down from the hallway.
"It vasen't das funny" Germany voice stood out.
"Ve~ see Germany there was nothing to be scared of" Italy's said as their voices were getting closer.
"Oh yeah that's why you were bolting down the stairway screaming like a little girl" Prussia mocked as they came into view.
"Vat happened here?" Germany questioned looking at England.
"Dude we have a major problem, Russia tried to open the door with his pick axe but the top broke off and flew into England's head and was knocked out and blood was pouring out from his head and when he woke up he couldn't remember me" America panicked without taking a breath.
"You phrased that wrong" England spoke up.
"Huh?"
"You said 'couldn't' as if it had already happened and that I was able to remember you now, but you should have said 'now he can't remember me' which apparently I can't just because I've never seen you before" He explained.
"But you have seen me before" America moped as he decided to lie on the ground.
"Why would I want to be associated with someone like you" England quipped.
"But England dude….." America murmured.
"Okay vee can sort this out later now vee just need to open this door" Germany cut in.
"But what about the monster" China worried.
"We don't need to worry about the monster it was only Prussia trying to scare Germany" Italy said cheerfully.
"And it sooooo vorked" Prussia affirm.
"Yes you did, now how do you open this door?" Germany asked admitting defeat towards his older brother scheme.
"Well you just-" Prussia stoped half way through his sentence as he rattled the handle. Prussia looked back at his brother then went back to working on the door. After failing at that he started pulling smaller handles that were next to the door but nothing happed.
"Deadlock" he muttered.
"What?" Germany questioned.
"The door has been locked from the outside" Prussia replied looking around.
"Well the door did slam shut as we ran in" America claimed.
"But I checked this door before; it can't shut just by slamming it has to manually be locked from the outside" Prussia explained.
"So someone else locked us in here" England divulged.
"Qu'allons-nous faire!" France panicked.
"Hey it's going to be all right even if- what was that?" America was saying when a low but loud grumble was heard coming around the corner, everyone's attention was now on the noise.
"Prussia?" China whimpered.
"Not me" Prussia stood in shock.
"Ve~ Germany?" Italy shivered pulling on Germany's coat.
"Vhat is it Italy?" Germany asked still focused on the noise.
"Where did the door go?" Italy stammered.
With this story I tried putting in their accents to make it sound more like them. This was only going to be a one-shot but after making a HetaOni video \I wanted to make this longer.
If you have any hint's or tips about there accents just send a message and any comments on what should happen along the way (Eg. England losing all memories of America) would be helpful.
