Hello, everyone :) I'm back again with another story, but this one is going to be a little different. It's loosely based on the movie North Face and tells the story of Toni Kurz and Andi Hinterstoisser using our beloved Hetalia characters. I apologize in advance for the character deaths that will inevitably be taking place. I find no joy in killing off characters, however it is important to the telling of this particular story. I apologize again :( Please enjoy.
I do not own Hetalia or North Face :/
There was a time in which Mt. Everest was not the pinnacle of the mountaineer's career. Within the Swiss Alps lies three very distinct mountains with the names Mönch, Jungfau, and Eiger. The Eiger Mountain was once called the last problem of the Alps, and climbers flocked to its North Face to conquer its treacherous and unscaled heights. Numerous attempts were made to crush this final challenge, but none succeeded.
The death toll became so high that the Bernese police tried to ban any further climbing of the mountain. However, before the rule was set in place, many risked their lives to climb the North Face as other mountains in the Alps were being climbed one by one. In 1935, two Bavarian climbers took the challenge and climbed higher than anyone to attempt it previously. Unfortunately, fate was not on their side, and a sudden storm left the climbers stranded on the mountain face. They froze to death before they could descend.
It wasn't until the summer of 1936 that the North Face was seriously challenged once more. The Olympics were to be held in Berlin, and the nations of the world were itching to show their superiority during such turbulent times. Climbers from around the world gathered at the foot of the Eiger with dreams of being the first to the top. The Nazis were also eager to make history, and they urged German climbers to win honor for their country.
This is where the story of the North Face begins.
