Hello there, this is my first fanfic, and I apologize for such a short Intro, but please don't be a hater on purpose... •m• I just write because I enjoy it, so I hope you enjoy it too! Please let me know if I should continue~ •w•

He had to keep running. Running was the only thing standing between him and certain doom. Sadly in this case, doom did not mean death, the fate he would receive if he were to stop running would be by far worse than death... And so he ran, but no matter where ran through these crowded streets he couldn't lose her... He couldn't stop. He won't stop. He could feel his lungs about ready to burst as he ran through the rainy, cold, damp, dark and crowded streets. He ran into an empty alley hoping to lose her there but as he turned into the alley his heart sank. A dead end. There was no where left to run and fighting had never been his forte. He figured pleading would be useless at this point but it wouldn't hurt to try right? He pulled out a white flag as he saw her shadow cast upon the entrance of the alley, he let out an involuntary whimper. 'Oh Germany... I'm so sorry... I should have paid better attention in training. Please forgive me.' The last thing Italy saw before blackness was the cold and calculating smile of a young woman.
- "Let the world meeting begin! And just remember, that through excessive talking and yelling at each other anything can be possible! So let's begin with our first problem of the day-" the obnoxious American was cut off and they weren't even five minutes into the meeting yet! Canada sighed, knowing this would be a long meeting. Germany spoke up and interrupted America before he could continue. "If I may America, I have some rather upsetting news to discuss before we begin." Canada noticed a sad and worried looking Japan shift uncomfortably, however America continued speaking before Canada could think anything more of it. "Sure dude, go right ahead!" He said cheerfully although Canada was convinced that his brother just saw this as an opportunity to procrastinate the meeting. Germany stood and America sat, he cleared his throat and looked around the room, as if to make sure everyone was there then he began to speak. "As some of you may have noticed Italy is not here today, Japan and I went to try and find him. However when we searched his home country all we managed to find of him was this." Germany held up a white flag made with a simple piece of cloth and sticks, the nations there gasped as the took in the sight. Canada was shocked, Italy? Missing? What could this possibly mean...? Germany continued to speak "We have reason to believe that whoever has taken Italy is targeting nations. Many of you have seen Italia in battle and know how quickly he can retreat, only someone who could match his speed would be able to catch him. No regular human would have been able to catch him otherwise." The nations took this in and sat in a shocked silence. 'T-targeting nations? Why would anyone do such a thing?' Canada thought. Even his "hero" of a brother sat in stunned silence clearly thinking what everyone else was thinking; Why? Who? What? When? Where? ...How? Germany continued yet again "I highly recommend zhat you stay vith another nation at all times during zhis time of crisis. I vould also like some help finding Italy so that we can make sure he is alright..." Germany looked worried for his...good friend and by the bags under his eyes, it was clear he hadn't slept for a few days. Much to everyone's surprise however Romano was the first to raise his hand and say "I'll help you, you damn potato bastardo..." A few moments later Spain, America, Prussia, England and Japan raised their hands. Canada decided to raise his hand as well and silently wondered if anyone would even notice his hand in the air. Germany looked around with a hint of a smile written across his face. "Thank you all. And zhat is all that I had wished to say. America, you may continue." America stood up, yet the bright and happy energy that had been there previously had disappeared. It was needless to say that the meeting didn't go as usual.
