Disclaimer: No matter how many times I wish upon a star, I will never own Hetalia nor Maximum Ride.


Don't you just love the feeling of the wind blowing through your hair, with your wings flapping easily in the sky, and your family laughing beside you, as if there wasn't a care in the world?

Well, scratch the last part because we were all very aware of blood thirsty wolf-men known as Erasers that were out to kill us all. And the whitecoats. And stupid old Jeb.

So, technically, we had a lot of 'cares' to worry about.

But, hey, we should enjoy our freedom while it lasts.

I breathed in the crisp fresh air, flying over to my best friend/second in command, Fang. "So, nice sunset, huh?" I asked, idly staring at the beautiful mass of oranges, pinks, and reds up ahead.

He nodded in response, watching the sunset as well. Typical of mister tall, dark and silent over here.

Angel, who wasn't as angelic as her name, flew over to me, as Gazzy, Iggy and Nudge played tag up ahead.

"Max," she started, her big baby blues staring up at me. "You know Dr. Martinez?"

AKA my mom. "Yeah, what about her?" I replied, my tummy rumbling at the mere thought of her. Man, I could really go for a chocolate chip cookie right now...

Angel brushed a stray blonde hair away from her face, before saying. "She has something important that she wants to tell you. And I think we should see what it is."

"Hm, ok then. I was thinking of visiting her anyway; we're close to Arizona and it's getting late," I said finally, curious about what she might have to tell us.

My leader instincts kicking in, I turned to the rest of the flock. "Guys, we're heading to Dr. Martinez's house, okay? It's late, and I'm pretty sure we're all starved. I know I am," I told them.

"Yeah! I'm so hungry I could eat, like, a horse! But a cooked one not like a smelly horse with fleas cause that's just gross. Ew, who would even eat a live horse? I bet Fang could. I swear, Fang's got a thing for eating weird creature thingys. Like remember that one time he caught us a weasel and it was sooooo nasty like I nearly-"

Iggy clamped a hand over Nudge's motor mouth, making her pout. She was a good kid and all, but I swear, that girl could talk my ear off.

When we finally arrived at my mom's house, it was around 9 o'clock PM. We all landed swiftly in her backyard, whipping our wings in before anyone could see them.

I then opened the door, letting myself in. I didn't need to knock since I was after all Dr. Martinez's daughter.

She was sitting in the kitchen with Ella, when she caught sight of us.

"Max," my mom called, smiling, as she walked over to hug me. She turned to the flock. "Hi kids," she greeted, motioning to the table. "Help yourselves."

They did just that, stuffing their faces like the half-starved bird kids they were. I joined them, before gulping down a large glass of chocolate milk. Ah, I love the stuff.

My mom took a seat at the head of the table, before announcing. "You guys came just in time. I have something to tell you all."

"We know," piped Angel. "What is it?"

My mom smiled, before pulling out something that seemed to be a bit too familiar. A uniform. "I've signed you all up. You're going to school."

I nearly spat the chocolate milk all over the table, coughing violently. "What?" School?! We didn't go to real school since...well, never!

"That's right," Mom said, much to the incredulous looks on my flock's faces. "You're just kids, and after all you've been through, I thought it's best that you guys get a chance to have a learning experience."

Iggy scoffed loudly at that. "Learning experience? Seriously?"

"Yes, seriously," Dr. Martinez answered, walking over to us. "This is a special school for special people. Well, specifically speaking, it's an Academy."

"Oh cool!" exclaimed Nudge, bouncing in her seat. "Are there dorms?"

My mom nodded. "Yes there are. And uniforms as you can see," she held the uniform up higher, making me choke. Oh god, there was a skirt. My worst nightmare has come true.

"And what exactly is this academy called?" I asked, not too thrilled about the skirts.

"Gakuen Hetalia," both Angel and my mom answered at the same time. "Also known as World Academy," Angel chirped, smiling innocently.

Angel...I thought. That little she demon read Dr. Martinez's mind again.

Hey! I heard her voice ring in my head. I'm not a she demon.

"Hey Dr. Martinez," Gazzy chirped from his spot, turning to the dark haired woman, his mouth full of Cheetos. "Is the school in America?"

"Yes. And you guys will be starting next week."

I widened my eyes. "Next we-?!"

"Just to try," she interrupted smoothly, tucking her curly hair behind her ear.

Fang and I exchanged looks, and I could tell he wasn't too thrilled about the idea either. Same with Iggy. On the other hand however, all the younger kids actually looked exited to go to school.

"...fine," I grit out, sighing in defeat. We'll go just for their sake. "But if there is even a whiff of danger at this 'World Academy'," I started, standing up sharply. "Then we are flying the heck outta there."


Hope you guys like! This is my first Maximum Ride/Hetalia crossover fanfic!

This takes place after TAE, so Max, Fang, and Iggy are 14, Nudge is 11, Gazzy is 8, and Angel is 6.
