ROFL! An strange story that entered my head. XD I loves Latvia, and I loves Russia! (Giggles) I hope you all enjoy!! I'll work on my other stuff later...Just something to amuse you all....


A teenage Ivan Braginski sighed as he wandered his large home. He was very lonely in this vast land. Sure he had General Winter, but the man didn't offer the companionship he was looking for. Ivan shivered as bitter wind engulfed him. His violet eyes peered around the area; a frown worked its way on to his mouth. "This is new…" He said looking about the foreign land. Ivan squinted his eyes; he spied a tiny home nearly hidden in the veil of whiteness. "A…house?" He grinned wildly running towards the home. Where there was a house there were people. He soon made it to the front of the cozy cottage style home. His dark gloved hand knocked harshly on the door. Russia stood there for several minutes; upon no answer Ivan lifted his booted foot and kicked the door open; he would be damned if didn't get a scrap of human contact. "Hello?" Ivan hollered into the dwelling. Ivan frowned as the inviting looking house offered no warmth; crying made his head perk up. "Hello?" He repeated. Weak crying only returned his calls; Ivan reached the back room where a tiny bundle wrapped in dulling colorful blankets lay on a large bed. Ivan walked over to the bundle looking at the only clear space in it. A tiny face with watery violet eyes stared up at Ivan. Russia leaped back as tiny arms shot out of the bundle. Ivan titled his head curiously, approaching the bundle again; he reached a larger hand out towards the smaller one. The tiny pale hand latched onto a finger, Russia's eyes sparked with interest. Slowly he peered back at the face of the bundle. It struck him finally that this was a baby, a baby that would surly freeze if this home was truly abandoned. Ivan's eyes darted about the residence then returned to the child. 'I did want companionship…' He thought picking up the bundle.

"Ivan, why are you taking another country?" A harsh voice asked making Ivan turn his head. Standing behind him in an ominous dark cloak was the man Russia hated and loved so.

"General Winter!" Ivan greeted as he turned towards the man behind him. The smile never faltered as Russia felt a tug on his scarf from tiny hands.

The General shook his snow white hair. "Ivan that country is not ready yet." He informed the lonely country.

Ivan frowned looking at the tiny being who was content holding onto Ivan's scarf. He mulled over what the general had said and dismissed it when the babe buried their face into his scarf. "Nonsense." He smiled at his distant ally. "It's but an infant; it would be cruel to leave it here in the cold." He said starting to walk out of the home.

"Your decision won't go by unpunished.." The general said watching Ivan run back home with the largest smile on his face.

Upon arriving home Ivan rushed to his bedroom leaving startled servants in his wake. His smile was the brightest any had seen in a long time. The only thought running through Ivan's head was how much this tiny being was going to love him and how they would be together forever. The tiny being squirmed in Ivan's grasp, this place was strange and warm to them. They wanted to explore this new place that this tall scary thing had taken them to. Ivan placed the babe on his bed; he watched the tiny bundle crawl about on the large downy bed. Ivan unraveled the blankets looking for a clue as to what name the child would respond to. Stitched into the corner of the red blanket with white thread was a name.

"Hmm? Raivis…" Russia read aloud making the tiny boy look back at him. Russia chuckled scooping the being up before they could fall off the edge. Ivan smiled as he held Raivis high over his head "You won't leave me, da?" He asked as Raivis reached his tiny hand out to touch Ivan's hair. "Ofcourse you won't!!" He cried pulling the Raivis into a bear hug. "Cause you won't know anything other than me…" He smiled into the curly locks "Da, nothing but me…" Russia smiled as he heard the child giggle at the softness of Ivan's scarf.
