A Thief full of Hearts
Preview: What if Italy was a Thief? What if he was smarter than most people think? In this story Italy is a good for nothing thief and ends up robbing Germany's house! To only be saved by Prussia. But, what happens when two countries fall in love with the same country? Maybe, some competition? Or war?
Chapter One
(Italy)
Italy had his eye stuck to this thing for months. He just couldn't get it
out of his head. I have to steal that Emerald! He thought, if I do, then i'll be
able to get at least two months of Pasta! I'll never starve again! Then, he
decided tonight is the perfect night to have a nice robbery. With the cool
spring breeze and no moon above the city of Venice, the timing couldn't be
better. As he waited till the night was still and no movement on site. He
peeked around the corner of the ally and to see that all the lights of the
Emerald keeping house was of, except, for one room on the bottom floor that
had the dimmest of the dim lights. Probably just a candle lit. Its to dim to tell
if anyone is there though. The young Italian thought.
He slithered his way to the house almost unnoticeable. As Italy threw
his grappling hook he kept his eyes on the candle lit room, not sure if
somebody was there or if anybody would suddenly look out the window to
see him crawling up the wall trying to rob them. He carefully and swiftly
climbed the wall with no problem. The walls were made of brick and not
very smooth so there was some good cleavage. When he finally got to the
room that contained the Emerald, his breath became soft and slow, his feet
on there toes, and himself as light as can be. He tip toed all the way to the
Emerald which was encased in an air tight glass seal. Pfft, this'll be easy!
What silly person would do the worst type of security for something as big as
an emerald? Italy thought to himself smiling with satisfaction. As he reached
slowly towards the glass he heard heavy footsteps coming this way, he
whipped his head quickly, making his curl bounce crazily.
He has to move fast before- "VAT THE HELL DO VOU THINK
VOUR DOING VOU ITALIAN FREAK!" a tall, blonde haired, blue eyed, muscular
man yelled right at Italy. He pulled out a gun and pointed it at Italy. I have to get out of
here fast! Before this German eats me for a late afternoon snack! Italy thought rapidly,
"V-ve, Please sir, i'm just a poor Italian trying to make a living! I-i didn't mean to make
such a racket! Please let me go!" He begged, but, it seemed like this German would not
put his guard down. Ok, time for plan B. "LOOK! ITS THE BRITISH!" That made the
German turn around and say, "VERE? VERE!" That gave Italy enough time to take the
glass seal off, grab the emerald, jump out the window, and nimbly land on his feet.
"HEY! GET BACK HERE!" screamed the German, then followed close
behind him. Shit! So he's the cop kind. Well that sucks. Italy ran as fast as he could.
Jumped over cars, dodged poles and bikers, ran through allies and streets, but it seemed
like this guy would not give up! Oh man! I'm about to give up! I can't run like this
forever, and it seems like every heartbeat he just gets closer and closer. Italy looked
around to see if anything ANYTHING that would make this guy stop following him.
But then- "Oof!" "Sh! Or do you want to get us both caught?" a voice said. As Italy
looked up, he saw a tall, dark figure that was covering his mouth. "Grr, vere did
he go now?" The German that was pursuing him said, and reluctantly heading back to
the direction of his house. The figure waited a few before removing his hand from Italy's
mouth. "Thanks mister, but, I have to ask, ,why did you help me in the first place?"
"Well, we're both the same right? One thief to another? We gotta help each other out I
guess. Besides, i'm to awesome to let a fellow thief get caught by that awful Germany."
the man said. "So, um. Do you have a name?" he asked, "Oh! Ve, i'm Italy. And you?"
"The awesome Prussia! But, you can just call me Prussia. I'll give you special
permission." he exclaimed, "Ve, so that mans name was Germany? How do you know?"
"Well, um, because i'm awesome thats why!" ok, I seriously doubt that, but, whatever.
As long as i'm away from that Germany guy. He seemed scary! "Oh." Thats all Italy
could really say without being rude. Even though he was just a thief he still didn't like to
be mean.
"Well, I guess I should head to bed. I'll just sell this tomorrow. Ve, goodnight
Prussia." "Wait!" Italy stopped right in his tracks. "Do you really have a place to sleep?"
All Italy could do was shake his head. "Then, um, do you want to come over to my
awesome place? I mean, just for this night, I don't want you to make it unawesome! It
takes skill and hard work to get it that awesome!" "Ve! Thanks Prussia!" Italy turned
around and gave Prussia a big hug of thanks. Italy could tell that Prussia was a bit
uncomfortable so he let go. He still couldn't see Prussia that well under the thick night.
Italy followed Prussia through rows and rows of allies until they finally got to the
back of one of the allies where a door was. He led Italy threw the door and to see a
small, dark room with one small bed, a sink, a mini fridge, and a half bathroom.
"Awesome, right?" "Mhm!" Better than finding a quiet corner in a dark ally and curl up
into a little ball to fall asleep. He thought. "You can sleep in my bed. I'm awesome
enough to sleep on the floor."
"Thanks." Italy said, finally getting to see Prussia's face. It was a pale face with
crazy, snow white hair, and piercing red eyes that seemed soft and quite pretty. He's kind
of handsome, Italy shook his head dismissively, what am I thinking? He just a
thief-mate, helping another thief-mate out! But, why does he have to be so nice? The
other thieves are so hostile and cruel. They'll beat anybody up if they get the chance. So,
why this one? As Italy thought about this he slowly fell into a deep sleep. Wondering
why this country had been so nice to him.
Ok, so this is my first story and i'm still working out all this stuff!
I'm really sorry that this chapter was so short but I will work on that! Thanks for reading so far!
