It started off like any raining meeting day really. Well expect for the fact that I woke up that morning with a horrible headache and was trying to stay awake to listen to whatever Germany was saying. Normally it would have been easy to sneak a nap being surrounded by a mass of other nations but apparently I didn't get the memo that the rain meant I didn't have to come in. So instead of about forty of us it was only about fifteen.

With it being so small I was surprised they were letting me sit next to Australia since all he ever does is doodling penises all over his notebook and make crude yet very funny comments. Then again he was being quiet; in fact it was all very quiet. I glanced over at France and England as they sent glares at each other than to Turkey and Greece. Turkey was writing some kind of notes while Greece looked like he normally did. Asleep.

I shifted in my seat as I yawned, if Greece could sleep in a meeting this small than I didn't see why I couldn't. So resting my chin on my arm I closed my eyes. I was only out for a few minutes when I heard the familiar sound of Germany yelling. "America, pay attention."

Slowly as I opened my eyes I let out a groan knowing that all eyes were on me, "I was listening."

"Than what was I saying?"

While I wanted to shrug I sat up slightly, "You were talking about what you're always talking about, gun violence with our young people."

"I think that's just you, git." I looked over at England as he looked away with that stupid smug of his before looking back at Germany who was still looking for answers.

I shook my head feeling a strange sensation wash over me, "Anyway how people are…killing each other and how…" I stopped noticing how slowly the world around me was well it's hard to explain but it was as if I was in some old movie or television show and the colors were muted.

Germany picked up on my confusion after a moment, "America?" He asked as he took a step forward as Australia took a hold of my shoulder.

"I'm okay just," I blinked and the colors around me returned, "Just tired I guess."

This time he nodded, "Why don't we break for lunch than?" He gave me a soft smile and I gave him one in return. "I think we could all use one."

"Thanks Germany." I said as I slowly stood up to stretch followed by a few others hoping it would help with my headache.

As France grabbed his coffee cup he motioned over to Greece, "Should we wake him up?" He said as he took a sip, "So he can at least feed his cat or whatever he does."

"Oh sure." Turkey said with a wide evil grin as he looked down at him. "I'll wake him up." With that he slapped the other hard across the back of his head. Normally the other would have sat up or at least opened his eyes but to Turkey's surprise along with most of ours the sleeping nation didn't move an inch. "Hey Asshole, wake up." Turkey grabbed him by the collar and yanked him up. "Greece?" He asked this time with slight worry in his voice. "Hercules?"

This time Greece's head slumped back limp and for the first time I noticed he wasn't breathing. "Dude put him down." I rushed over followed by most of the others as Seychelles held tightly to France.

Russia got to him first as Turkey just stood by the window staring with wide eyes at the other nation. After a moment of checking him over followed by me and Germany we all shook our heads we knew there was nothing we could do for him, "He's cold…"

"He's been dead for a while." Someone said quietly as the room just stared at each other.

Finally England cleared his throat, "Germany…do you have a procedure for this?"

"Ja, I do." He said with a sigh as he draped his jacket over the dead man, "Lock the door and everyone call your bosses."

Quickly Ukraine shook her head as tears threatened to fall, "I'm not staying in here with him."

"We were with him for three hours already." Her sister said as she sat down with her phone, "Not like it's any different."

"It is different."

"Irene, just sit down." Slowly she did but never took her eyes off of the mass under the jacket. "So Ludwig what do we do after we call our bosses?"

"We wait." He answered as he tried to get his boss on the line, "If a human did this we need to let them know and well…"

While I was thinking it Hungary was the one that said it, "And if it wasn't a human?"

"Then it was one of us." Italy said with a rather odd cheerful smile, "And we'll have to figure out who did it."

"We? Feli there's no we here. We have to let our people solve this."

"So Interpol?" I remarked with a chuckle as I leaned back in my chair, "What do we say? Hey this dead guy is Greece and one of us other countries probably killed him. I mean that's a total sign of war but figure out who it was anyway, kay?"

Canada nudged my arm as he shook his head clearly not amused by my comment, "Not the time. But…what will happen to his people?"

"Or us…" We turned back to Seychelles who hadn't left France's side, "What if they're not done?"

Suddenly I spoke up again, "Well than kid we'll catch the murder and bring him to justice." While it came out of my mouth I didn't recognize the voice at first. It was stern, deep and reminded me of how I use to talk in the in the early 20th century. It got me another strange look from the group as again the world around me started to lose its color as off in the distance I heard the strange tick tock of a large clock.
