Denmark, Copenhagen 1:30am
Cold winter nights, the sounds of falling snow was heard. Two figures held in their arms children, on had a boy of 6 who was knocked out while the other had two babies in his arms. They were hurrying, the need to meet with the others, then they heard it shouting from behind them.
"Dammit, come one we need to meet the others." Stated the one with boy.
"If I go any faster the babies will wake up."
"Better that then have their father's axe or sword in you right."
"Yes."
"kommer tilbage her kidnappere, bringe tilbage min søn og niecer." (Come back here you kidnappers, bring back my son and nieces)
"Their getting closer, what now."
"We use our fire power."
With that a bomb was thrown behind them, and the men ran into the night.

It was calm and the young boy was asleep his brother was asleep with him because of a bad dream. They were out, so they didn't feel the cold air come in as a dark figure came into their room. They didn't hear the figure go over to them and grab them.
They were gone the next second, as their mother enter their room, as fairies told him what was happing he was greeted by a blunt object to the head, and he was knocked out.

"Ve, give them back." Stated a shaking Italian along with his brother who was cursing the men who had his son and his niece.
The said children were 3 and 5 and were trying to get away so they could get with their mothers.
"Mutti."
"Madre."
"Christen, let my bambino." Stated crying one.
"Bastards let my Milo go."
Both mothers were silenced by being hit in the head.
14 years later
America and England were in a grocery store when they were bumped into. The two looked to see who it was, but the said person started to run away, and the two being themselves ran after her.
"Come back here." Stated the American as he ran after the person.
"Help, Søren, William." Called the person that the two were chasing.
"Tina, what's the matter prinsesse?" (Princess) asked a voice.
That's when America and England came to the three and then saw the trio, and their jaws dropped.
The eldest seemed to be about 20 with gravity defying hair which was the color between white and dark blond. His eyes were a sky blue and he had a smile on his face, which turned to a frown when he saw the two men. He wore a red t-shirt and blue jeans, and he crossed his arms and looked at the two before him.
The man next to him had dark golden hair and wore a green sweater that matched his eyes. He also had thick eyebrows. Which were covered with glasses, and he looked at the two strangers. He also had a frown.
The last one was a girl, she was the one that ran into the two. She had golden blond hair and wore a dark blue summer dress with matching sandals and head band. She had gripped the eldest shirt and hid her face in it.
"What's the matter?" asked the sky blue eyes as he looked at America and England.
"Well, she kinda ran into us dude, and she ran away." Stated America.
"Is that true Tina?" asked the other blond as he went to her level.
"I thought it was bad guys like Milo, and Al told us."
"Tina, I'm sorry about that sirs."
"Quite alright, I should think a girl would run to her parents in a time of need." Stated England.
"Parents, oh no were not her parents."
"What?"
"You see, Tina here is, Søren's cousin." He motion to the gravity blond.
"Oh, I see and are you two together?" asked America.
"You git why would you ask them that?"
"Well in fact we are."
"You are?"
"Yes, we been together for how long now I don't know."
"7 years." Søren replied his eyes softening.
"Yes, but we know each other longer."
"Uh, William."
"Yes, Tina."
"I hate to break up his moment but you know that the others are waiting for us."
"Oh, quite right, oh we didn't get your names."
"I'm Arthur."
"I'm Alfred."
"Charmed, I'm William Kirkland, and my lover over here is Søren Køhler, and the cutie you met is Tina O…"
"I'm Tina Oxenstierna. I'm 14 years old and I love cute things. I also know that when William and Søren go out they do other things to…." A hand was clasp over her mouth by a blushing Søren, and William hit a laugh.
"I'm truly sorry, Tina means well but she can ramble on."
"Yea, and sometimes it's not right to do that." Stated Søren who was glaring at the girl.
"Well, anyway would you two like to come with us for supper?"
"What?" Søren and England both said.
"Alright we will."
"Good, I'll handle the bags, Søren why don't you take Tina and show the men our car."
"Yes sir." Stated the two.

"Alfred do you think?" asked Arthur as they were following a beat up Chevy van.
"About what?"
"Don't tell me it hasn't crossed you mind, these kids might be the missing kids, the boy William is the same age as…"
"Arty, I know that you and the other moms are sure the kids are still alive but I don't know."
"Alfred, we know because it's true you dolt."
"I just don't want you heart to break."
"I know, but I'm sure that these are the ones."

They arrived at a two story house, it was brick but it seemed a little outdated. Alfred went to help Søren with the bags as William opened the door. Tina walked over to Arthur and grabbed his hand, and Arthur felt his hand melt a little.
"Come on I want to show you ever one."
"Okay, Alfred I believe I'm going with this lovely lady."
"Hey don't go running off with my Queen."
"You dolt don't say such things." Arthur said as he started to blush.
"Don't worry, you should hear the names that William calls Søren." Tina said as she led the man into the house.
The T.V. was on and two boys were playing a video game. Tina went there first, she walked in front of them and smiled.
"Alan, Milo I would like you to meet Mr. Arthur."
Alan was a boy about 17 with dark blond hair and a Cowlick coming out of it. He had green eyes under normal eye brows. He wore an" I love hamburgers" t-shirt and shorts. He looked at Arthur and Tina and just nodded.
"Hey, Chica can you get out-of-the-way so we can play the game." Stated the other boy who was about 17.
His hair was a mix of brown and red, with chocolate-brown eyes. He wore a black t-shirt and ripped jeans. As he stood up Tina flinched which didn't go unnoticed by Arthur who eyes went back on the boy.
"Yes, sorry Milo."
"MILO VARGAS CARRIDO WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO THAT POOR GIRL." Arthur turned to meet a pair of hard blue eyes.
A woman of 19 years came up, and she wore a pair of running slacks and a black top. Her blond hair was pulled back into a pony tail and she wore fingerless gloves.
"Nothing, Chris just asking her to move out-of-the-way…"
"He's right Chris. "
"Alright, oh and who's this guy."
"I'm Arthur Miss…"
"My name is Christina Beilschmidt, I'm Milo's cousin."
Before Arthur could say anything there was a frantic steps going down stairs. He looked to see a white hair purple eye boy. He wore a white tee with jeans and he had a panic look on his face.
"Henri what's the matter?" Chris asked as she turned to the boy.
"She's at it again."
"Who's at it again?" asked William as he and the other two men came inside.
"Henri where's Belle?" Søren asked.
"In her room, People made fun of her again, I'm afraid she won't go this weekend."
"Tak Henri, Chris can you help Will with supper I'm going to have to have a talk with Belle."
"Do you mind if I tag along, I mean if it's not too much trouble?" Arthur asked.
"Alright, but one step out of the line I'm kicking you out."

"This happens often?" asked Alfred as he looked at the children.
"Yes, you see Bella is mute, which makes her the target of bullies. We try hard to make sure that she's okay, but sadly we can go everywhere with her. I wish people would be more understanding about it."
"I agree, my sister might not talk but she's smart and good with her hands. She made the clock over there."
Alfred looked at the clock on the wall, and his eyes went wide in awe. It was maple wood, stain dark to show off the designs on its surface. It was two wolves that were howling, their jaws lead into the clock face which on its boarded looked like the moon. An owl was sitting on the top of the clock its gaze looking striate at Alfred as if it was alive.
"Wow, so when meant this weekend there's something going on?" Tina nodded, she walked over and gave a flyer to Alfred.
"It's a contest, the winner gets 10,000 dollars. Bella has worked on her project for this for about 4 months."
"Don't remind us, we have to carry it." Stated Alan.
"Don't be a soil sport, you know that Bella has worked hard the best thing we can do is help her win."
"Alright, Alright man, his guy is going to think you're my dad instead of my brother."
"No way man, I know what a dad's like and he doesn't act like it." Alfred said.
Yea, he protects the ones he loves, me I couldn't even save mine children not to mention I almost lost England.

"Belle, come on let me in." Søren stated as he knocked on the door.
The door opened and Arthur followed the boy in, he had to guess that this was the girls room it had three beds. The colors though were a little off, one was light pink, one was a light green, and the last was dark blue. On that bed was a girl sitting looking out the window she then looked at the two men.
Her blond hair was so blond it was almost like snow, and was in a braid that went to the center of her back. She wore a blue t-shirt and blue jeans, and in her arms was a stuffed wolf that she had a tight grip on.
She turned her face to the two men, Arthur saw sad sea blue eyes underneath glasses. She bit her lip trying to act brave in front of them.
Søren sighed and walked over to the girl and gently placed her on his lap. He then started to sing, much to Arthur surprise a lullaby, and since he was a nation could understand it.
"Den største eventyr er, hvad der ligger forude
I dag og i morgen er endnu ikke siges
Chancerne ændringerne er alle dine til at gøre
Formen af dit liv er i dine hænder til at bryde."
(The greatest adventure is what lies ahead
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said
The chances the changes are all yours to make
The mold of your life is in your hands to break.)
"Den største eventyr er der, hvis du er fed
Slip det øjeblik, at livet gør du holder
For at måle betydningen kan gøre dig forsinke
Det er tid, du stoppe med at tænke og spilder dagen."
(The greatest adventure is there if you are bold
Let go of the moment that life makes you hold
To measure the meaning can make you delay
It's time you stop thinking and wasting the day.)
"En mand, hvis en drømmer og aldrig tager afsked
Hvem tænker på en verden, der gør tro
Vil aldrig vide lidenskab
Vil aldrig vide smerter
Der sidder ved vinduet
En dag vil se regn."
(A man whose a dreamer and never takes leave
Who thinks of a world that is make believe
Will never know passion
Will never know pain
Who sits by the window
Will one day see rain.)
"Den største eventyr er, hvad der ligger forude
I dag og i morgen er endnu ikke siges
Chancerne ændringerne er alle dine til at gøre
Formen af dit liv er i dine hænder til at bryde."
(The greatest adventure is what lies ahead
Today and tomorrow are yet to be said
The chances the changes are all yours to make
The mold of your life is in your hands to break.)
The girl seemed to smile at the song, the voice was calming to her. She then looked at Arthur then motion at her holder. Søren on seeing what she was pointing at he smiled and replied.
"Belle this is Mr. Arthur and Arthur this my Bella Oxenstierna Tina's older sister and the know lover of all middle earth here."
"Oh, so you like reading J.R. Tolkien?" Arthur asked, and the girl nodded and jumped off her cousin's lap and went to the book shelf and grabbed a book.
She walked over to Arthur who saw that the book that she had, it was a worn copy of the Hobbit. He smiled as he saw the glow in the girl's eyes, and then he saw the gentle smile on the elder teen.
"Who's you're favorite character?" Waiting for the girl to answer, the girl ran back to the bed and grabbed something off the dresser and started to write.
Bilbo and for the lord of the rings it's Leogas.
"Hum, I'm a Gandalf myself…"
Okay, so can I call you Gandalf?
Arthur let out a laugh, and when Bella got bothered she turned to Soren who saw the writing was smiling and laughing also.
"Is everything alright in here, or are you picking on poor Belle again." William asked as he came from the door, and Bella showed him the note and then he looked at the two men.
"I hope you two are happy, you utterly made fun of her." Then he started a long speech to the two.
"Oi, now she's laughing at us." Stated Arthur.
"Oh, that's it come here you bogorm." (Book worm)
"Leave her be Søren. Now it's time for supper."

It was late when Arthur and Alfred left, but they promised they would come back that weekend and would call some friends to help lift the wardrobe that Bella had made. They had calls to make, two of them to the Nordic nations.
