Canada sat nervously at his seat, the large wooden table was surrounded by chairs but Canada was the only one sitting. Everyone else was making awkward small talk in group, considering how everyone in this room was fighting for the same thing.
France and England had broken out into an argument as usual, why couldn't they just admit the obvious…?
France was only hear for moral support anyways, he wasn't involved at all with this dispute.
America was glaring at Russia from across the large wooden table, America was still pretty sour about the cold war and all…
Japan stood quietly looking out the window.
Others were off in small groups talking but no one was in a generally positive mood.
France and England stopped arguing finally and the room was completely silent for a moment.
The slammed open wildly and the snow and wind blew in aggressively, then just as quickly the door was shut again. There was utter silence for another moment. Then within a second the room erupted into a wild frenzy of voices. Once the group had quieted again Canada could see what had happened. America had tackled a tiny blonde girl in a hug and they both were laughing wildly. England sighed. "America… Get off the young lady." He stated, the frustration evident in his voice. America stood up and helped the girl to her feet.
She left to put away her coat and then returned, flashing Canada a friendly smile. "Evening Canada…" She stated as she sat down between Canada and England. Everyone went to sit around the large wooden table. There was hushed murmurs for a moment then Japan spoke up.
"The meeting about the territory of the Arctic is now in session. Are there any opening statements?" He said looking at the two people who had the most power in this dispute. Canada stood up, clearing his throat. "The Arctic has been under Canadian control for hundreds of years and we're not giving the Arctic over Russia anytime soon." He stated bravely, looking Russia straight in the eye. As Canada took his seat Russia stood up in rebuttle. "The Arctic has not been under Canadian control for hundreds of years, the Arctic has been a neutral territory under no country's control for as long as any of us can remember. I am simply requesting an expansion on my borders so that a part of this area may come under my control. It would be wise for Canada to comply." He stated taking his seat once more. America stood up enthusiastically. "I'm not letting Russia expand his borders even the slightest bit, the last thing we need is for his communist ways to spread to our society."
The girl opened her mouth to protest but before she could speak Russia was standing again. "None of us need or want another Cold War and if we wish to avoid conflict it is best if we come to some sort of compromise." He stated, with a far too innocent smile. America was standing once more and pointing at Russia accusingly. "You're just trying to take over you damn commie!" He yelled. Russia's smile grew wider as he started to ramble on about how America was an "Imperialistic Pig" and so on, when a high pitched shriek filled the room.
"Everyone just shut the hell up for a minute!" The blonde yelled, gripping her short hair in frustration. The room fell silent as this tiny girl glared angrily at each person in the room. "Arctic…?" Canada asked wearily. The girl sighed defeated, and looked at everyone apologetically. "I'm sorry everyone, I'll be back in a moment, I need some air…" She said before walking out the room. There was an audible slam of the door and then the room fell silent.
