I was 11 years old. I was watching Hetalia Axis Powers. It was on a DVD. Not a bootleg though. A certain episode came on with a warning.
"Not for people with epilepsy or young children. Enjoy the episode!" Since I was a rebel, I ignored the warning. The episode came on. I was a bit nervous though.
I watched anyway. The episode began like normal. The characters were on an island again for some reason. It was during the day. Italy was swimming in the water,
Germany was standing in the shade, and Japan was gathering firewood. Something was in the water though. It appeared to be a person or something. I got a closer look.
It turned out to be my OC. "Wait, WTF is she doing here?!" I exclaimed. I then remembered that I made a few social media posts with her in them, so maybe
Hidekaz Himaruya saw them and added her. She's Japan's younger sister. Okinawa. She washed up on the shore. Japan noticed it in the corner of his eye. "Huh...?"
He said. "What the... Oh!" He said. He thought that she was dead, but then he got a closer look. "Ha, I knew it!" He exclaimed happily. He dropped the firewood
immediatly. He dragged her out of the water by her hand. He poked her face, (why he did that is beyond me,) And she woke up. "Japan, my brother, is that you?"
"Yes, Okinawa. It's me. And Italy and Germany." He said. "Wait, what were you doing in the water?" Germany asked. "I.. I can't remember. I think I was swimming in
cold water. I must have passed out." Okinawa replied. The episode skipped to night.
"So, uh... Okinawa..." Italy said. "I uh... Used to have a crush on you when we were kids. Crazy, right?" "Yeah.. I guess. Would it be weird if one of us still had a
crush on the other?" "No, not at all. Even if it was, who'd care?" Italy said while blushing. "Aw, so cute!" I said. Since I was home alone, no one would be there to
judge me. I unpaused the TV. Japan was gathering more firewood. The scene cut to some animal lurking in the bushes. It had glowing red eyes, a bushy tail, and pointy
ears. I thought it was a raccoon, but this is Hetalia, so you never know. The animal jumped at Japan's arm, and bit him. As it turns out, it WAS a raccoon. A rabid
raccoon. Japan started waving his arms around frantically, trying to get the raccoon off. He grabbed the raccoon's tail, and flung it into the water.
"I don't like animal cruelty, but when they're rabid, put them out of their misery." Japan said with a stern face. Germany was staring at Japan from the trees,
with the look of someone who'd just seen a ghost. I looked at Japan's arm. Nothing APPEARED to be wrong. Did Germany know something that the audience didn't?! Was he
hiding something?! I continued watching. Germany stopped staring at Japan, and looked at Okinawa and Italy. "Big Brother, are you okay?!" Okinawa yelled. "I think so.
It drew a little blood, but I'm okay." Japan replied. "Oh, no. That's not 'A little bit of blood'. That's a lot!" Okinawa exclaimed looking very worried.
"No, I'm f-f-fi-..." Japan tried to say, but then passed out.
I was a little worried myself, so I didn't blame Okinawa, but I tried to relax. I continued watching. Germany still looked kinda creeped out. Couldn't blame Germany
either. Germany walked out from behind the tree that he was hiding behind. "Where did that raccoon go?" Germany said. "I think that Japan threw it into the water.
Why?" Italy said. "I'm going to KILL that damned thing." Germany said with an angry expression on his face. "Wait, what?" I said, and paused the TV. "What the fuck?!"
I yelled. I rewinded the episode, and took a few screenshots with my android Kurio. I continued watching again. The screen faded to black. It cut to another scene.
The scene was Okinawa giving Japan a rabies shot. "Ow." Japan said quietly. "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to hurt you, I w-..." "I know that you are just trying to help,
and I appreciate that. Arigato gozaimasu." Japan said and smiled. "Okinawa, we need to talk." Germany said. Okinawa looked at him. "In private." Okinawa followed
Germany behind some trees. "What?" Okinawa said. "This is serious. I have something important to tell you, but you can't tell Japan." Germany replied. "W-what is it?
Okinawa said. "When that raccoon bit him... I had a vision of his death." Germany said very quietly. "THAT'S why he was staring at him?!" I shouted. "We have to do
everything we can to protect him." Germany said. "W-what if we can't?" Okinawa said. "...You wouldn't want that..." Germany said. "Can't he protect himself though?"
Okinawa replied nervously. "I mean, he has a sword. A.. Very sharp sword. I'm afraid of him because I'm afraid of sharp objects." Okinawa looked freaked out. I noticed
Japan in the background... He looked rather upset. As if he heard their conversation. But... His eyes turned red, and he looked like he was looking out of the
TV Screen. Like... Breaking the fourth wall. This may already seem scary, but it gets worse. WAY WORSE.
