But what happens when they both find out a secret enemy greater than anything they've ever really known?
A Real Meaning
Chapter One: An Odd Meeting
In the midst of a global depression and intense anger, almost like prophecy, a second war erupted in Europe. Starting with Austria's annexation, then the Czechoslovakian take over, the invasion of Poland by Germany and Russia... all the common knowledge that war was inescapable.
Even in America it was impossible to ignore the war across the pond. Many people tried, until the enemy was bold and stupid enough to attack one of their own ports, Pearl harbor. This enraged the American citizens and it didn't take long before even the isolated America was dragged into the world war.
Nazi Germany was able to claim all of Western Europe, with the exclusion of Great Britain in a matter of a few years as well as create one of the world's most gruesome villainies... genocide. Destruction after destruction, tear after tear. The war became unbearable as stubborn America took a great deal of time to enter. Only becoming involved in Europe due to the Alliance between Germany, Italy and Japan.
XxXSomewhere in EuropeXxX
I walked down the hall with America next to me. We made it to the Allies meeting room. Only England was there seeing as America and I came early. He was drawing the three faces of the axis powers on the chalkboard. I walked up behind him and looked at the faces. It was odd to see our terrible enemies look so cute like the way Iggy drew them...
XxXSomewhere in GermanyXxX
Yet again Germany called for a meeting and as always my two fratellos and I were late, we had to be ready and look presentable whether it was war time or not. This is one of the few times I get to see Japan, seeing as I'm not always allowed near the meetings. I also get to see Germany's infamous older brother, Prussia who I've heard so much about.
XxX
I sat down at one of the many chairs around the table in the meeting room. I never came to this meetings; I always did all of America's investigating legwork, and then put it together for him to present at the meetings. It didn't take long however for England to notice that America wasn't constantly spouting about heroes in his battle plans and France almost immediately recognized my handiwork, so they invited me to come help them personally. I looked back to England and America to see that they had started some fight again. I laughed and took out mine and America's briefcase and prepared our papers when France walked in. Reflexes immediately made me twist slightly away from him and pull down my short skirt to keep him from being too tempted. He was a good guy and all, but it was too early in the morning to be groped... I smiled and waved him over after making sure that my clothes were all in order, I also subconsciously leaned my back up against my seat. Experience had taught me that France has the uncanny ability to unhook girls' bras through many layers of clothes... Feeling confident that there was no way I could be sexually harassed, I struck up a conversation with the Frenchmen while waiting for the rest of the Allies to get here.
XxX
I stood between my fratellos as we entered the meeting hall in Germany; he was readily at the table as well as Japan and Prussia. The moment we entered though the blond male began his lecturing of fratello, Veneziano, "Italy why are you always late? It isn't that far of a distance from your home to here" and so forth. My oldest fratello, Romano, started yelling at Germany for yelling at Veneziano. I just watched in a confused silence.
XxX
It didn't take long for China and Russia to come and we were finally ready to begin. To be honest I wasn't paying nearly as much attention as I should've... usually the occasional meeting was fascinating. But after the 5th fight within the first hour I asked America if he could call a break, which he immediately did, declaring his need for some hamburgers. I walked out into the quiet empty hallway to clear my throbbing head that was still sore from my last mission and pulled out my phone and began checking my email just for something useful to do.
XxX
As things calmed down and the meeting continued I noticed Veneziano taking a nap and Romano looking through his phone that was on his lap. In fact the only ones actually paying attention was Japan and Germany seeing as Prussia had vanished sometime before the meeting began. But then Veneziano woke up and said something causing Romano to start yelling and strangling him from the tension that had been building the whole time. Veneziano clung to me crying and I tried to comfort my fratello when Germany suggested a break that we all gladly took, Prussia returning, a beer in hand. I took the time to go online on my phone after my brother released me.
XxX
I looked at my watch... eh had some time... I looked up and down the hallway and finding it deserted, put in some earphones and listened to my favorite emo-rock band, "Sleeping with the Wishes" and checked my forum on their website. Nobody visited yet which I wasn't too surprised about given how short of time it had been up. So I just typed in on it
"Anybody has the new album yet? I'm getting "Death Drug" later tonight and can't wait!"
XxX
At that moment I sighed going through emo-rock band "Sleeping with the Wishes" forum. There was a post on it "Anybody has the new album yet? I'm getting "Death Drug" later tonight and can't wait!" It made me smile, Romano told me he'd be getting me that after the meeting as well.
"My brother said he'd get me that later today too!"
XxX
I leaned up against the wall humming along to the song I was listening to when I looked at my phone and saw that somebody replied. I hurriedly typed a response
"Neat! I've been meaning to get it since it came out, but I have been waaaaaay too busy for shopping lately..."
Obviously I didn't mention that I had been busy with stuff with the war...
XxX
Eagerly waiting, while eating chocolate, I noticed the reply and ignored the chaotic yelling from Romano. I was being careful to avoid the fact that I was at war and that I was an island in South Italy… Sicily.
"Yeah I've been really busy too! I never have time for anything anymore!"
XxX
The meeting had started up again, but since the three blonde nations were fighting again, I decided it would be alright to check my phone again. I saw another reply and smiled she typed back subtly under the table
"I can relate to that! Haven't had a decent night's sleep in a while sadly... work and stuff yanno?"
XxX
The progressing meeting now back underway, Prussia was forced to listen, Romano's phone was taken, and Italy was constantly awoken. When the annoyed German wasn't paying attention to me in particular I checked my phone and saw the reply, a subtle smile sneaking to my lips as I snaked out my phone from my pocket and replied under the table
"Yeah I've been learning a lot of new thing too, it's just been so stressful lately that I can barely get enough sleep and wake up with enough time to get ready in the morning."
XxX
China began complaining about how immature the Western nations were so it wasn't hard for me to keep checking my phone for a reply. When I got one I responded with
"We must be some kind of secret twins or something because it's the same with me... except being unable to wake up in the morning... that's pretty normal for me! If it weren't for my crazy uncle who acts like a human alarm clock I'd never get out of bed until noon!"
I laughed a little as I sent the message and jumped slightly when I heard Russia say from several feet above me "What are you doing little comrade?" I hid the phone and grinned up to him "Nothing, what about you? Got bored of smiling at the chaos or something?"
XxX
The meeting was running pretty smoothly, although my phone distracted me with my newest reply,
"I wish we were twins, I've always wanted a sister. I only have two older brothers. But I can sleep all day since my brothers don't wake up easily, well my brother's crazy friend comes over at unearthly hours to try and get him to work out with him. It's insanity!"
I held back my giggle as Romano took notice to my phone and poked me, "What are you doing" he whispered as he scooted over. "Ummm... being bored...?" I whispered back with a small hum following.
XxX
Russia just chuckled and looked back over to the squabble that had turned to a fist fight which left me free to check my phone again. I read the new message and typed back
"I don't have any siblings technically... but your brother's friend sounds evil! That's horrible! I would murder someone if they woke me up early just to work out! I would chuck a lamp at their head, roll over and go back to sleep... :P" Somehow in this time the meeting was under control again and I directed my attention to China who was talking about something important that I missed...
XxX
Romano continued to watch me as I replied to my new message, the meeting continuing regardless the vital information I was missing
"You can't do that with him... he's so scary! But my brother's fight all the time so it isn't the nicest thing in the world, my other brother hates my first brother's friend too! It's fun to listen to sometimes though :D" Romano nearly glared at me for the brother part but it came out as a playful glare and he poked my side.
"So is everyone clear on the plan?" Germany said, me, Romano and Italy just stared at him cluelessly.
XxX
Another break was called, but I stayed at my seat to finish the message "Pfft! Bring it! I'm the awesome hero! Nothing can scare me! Haha! Jk, but you brothers sound really fun though!" America tapped my shoulder and said "Hey bro! We covered most of the important stuff... there was some album or something you wanted to buy, right? If you want I can give Iggy the plans for his British Intelligence agents and stuff for you and you can walk down to the strip mall or something! I can meet up with you later..." I put my phone back in my pocket, "Yeah sure, sounds cool! I'll meet you there then!" and I began packing up my papers and notes.
XxX
Germany looked annoyed, no scratch that. Downright pissed off. He started yelling in his native tongue as Veneziano cried and Romano growled. His anger stopped at me when my phone dropped, "And you ask why we don't let you come to meetings?" "I-I'm sorry..." I squeaked as I instinctly leaned back in my chair. When I did that the whole thing toppled backwards and everyone stood, I grabbed my skirt with my hands to keep it from going up. "O-ow..." the tears started to flow from my eyes, my fratellos immediately at my side. "I-I think another break is in order..." Japan suggested, Prussia bolting from the room before Germany could agree.
XxX
I walked over to the little nearby strip mall, almost constantly checking to see if I got a reply on my forum. I figured that the person probably had a life and was getting back to it... despite that being the most likely reason, I had a bad feeling, but I ignored it, my instinct not quite my strong-point...
XxX
A few minutes later I had an icepack pressed against my forming bump and pain reliever shoved in my mouth with water to take my mind away from the pain of my developing headache. Once my free moment came I checked my phone, the thoughts of the wording eluding me and finally replied, "Hero? Heh that sounds funny. Yeah they are but sometimes I'd prefer a sister."
XxX
I was walking in the record store having just bought the new album. I couldn't wait to put it in and listen to it, but I wanted to enjoy my brief free time tonight. After all by tomorrow night I would be working full-time again. I left the store to go see some other shops in the hall when I a poster outside the record shop. It announced tonight's concert of "Sleeping with the Wishes" I noticed that it wasn't but a couple hours drive away, and I figured while I was in Europe, maybe I could celebrate my last free night with a little rock music. I took out my phone to call America and noticed that I had another response on the forum. I replied
"Heck yah I'm the Hero! Well I could always be your pretend sister ;D to be honest I've always been lonely as an only child and stuff... anyway, did you hear "Sleeping with the Wishes" is having a concert tonight? Are you going?"
XxX
The meeting was finally ceased since nothing was really getting accomplished anyway and everyone obviously wanted to enjoy the beautiful weather so I bolted out with Romano, who was going to buy me the CD. As we walked I saw the new post and replied
"Wow really? I'd really like that :3 a concert? Oh my god! I have to go see it! I'll ask my brother~!"
Then I looked at Romano and smiled, "Fratello I have a favor to ask~"
XxX
I had found a nice little coffee shop and was sitting down with a large cup of black coffee. I looked at my phone and smiled at the new post and replied
"I just got permission from my uncle! I'm sooooo excited!"
XxX
Romano groaned and looked down at me as we entered the music shop, "What is it sorella?" "I was wondering if I could go to the band's concert tonight!" I said, the ending becoming shriller as I saw the poster. He sighed and looked at me, "You don't have money for the ticket do you?"
"Umm... no." I said, smiling. "No." he firmly said, buying my CD. "B-but why! Fratello!" I argued, this went on for a while, another lecture of I couldn't always get my way. But he gave in after a while and bought me the ticket, so I replied on the forum
"I just got permission too! This is going to be amazing!"
XxX
I couldn't help but let out a soft "squee" of excitement when my new online friend said she could go too. I quickly responded almost the second she posted
"GREAT! we should totally meet up then! my uncle's just dropping me off and it's always more fun with a friend!"
XxX
"Fratello can we get something to eat?" I asked but he just shook his head, "I'll make you something soon. I don't like German food." "What does that have to do with me?" he just confused me until I heard his stomach growl, "Ah you're hungry too." I opened my bag and handed him a bright red tomato which he gladly took and bit into. The reddish juices slipping down his softly tanned face as he relished the flavor.
"Yeah! That'd be so great, it's going to be so much fun~" I replied to the forum as he ate the fruit.
XxX
I saw America outside the coffee shop looking for me, so I picked up my coffee and walked out while reading the new post I smiled again and replied
"Cool! We should have some code word or something... I know! I'll be wearing a large rose in my fedora hat and I'll have my black and silver jacket! so just come up and say "Draw a Circle" and I'll respond "That's the Earth" that way we'll know it's each other!"
XxX
Romano walked me over to Germany's house where we were staying, we had a bunch of meetings for the next few days, me only attending this one for today, none tomorrow but the rest of the week I was helping during the meetings. I sat in the kitchen when I saw Veneziano already cooking and read my message
"Alright, hmm I don't really know what I'll be wearing yet. I have to see first."
XxX
I was in the car with America driving. He was babbling on about something and I checked my phone again and replied
"That's alright! I'll know it's you if you know the password!"
XxX
I smiled, the smell of my homeland's food, Veneziano was making pasta as usual but he had pizza in the oven too and some other dishes cooking on the stove. I couldn't wait to eat. It would be about an hour drive or so, I'd be taking my plate with me I guessed. I checked my phone anxiously and answered
"Okay so it's a deal!"
XxX
I sent back one word "Awesome!" and set my phone down so I could change for the concert
XxXLater that EveningXxX
I got on a softly flowing ruby dress that went to my knees, a gold colored sash around my waist, gold colored shoes and bracelets, my gold rosary and my hair just being like normal. Romano was doing me the favor and driving me there, I ate in the car and looked at him every so often since he didn't really speak until we parked and he looked at me.
"Call me right after and... where's your jacket?"
"It's warm out fratello, I didn't want to get too hot. And don't worry I will."
He grumbled and removed his seat belt as he slipped his jacket off and handed it to me. I simply stared then smiled, "So you don't freeze either if the temperature drops..." "Thank you fratello. Ti vigilo bene." I said as I hugged him and got out.
XxX
I wore some dark skinny jeans with knee high Italian black leather boots, along with a stylish off the shoulder grey blouse with a blank tank top layered under it. I had my silver and black jacket on and my black fedora had a red and black ribbon as well as a red and black silk rose. I was hoping it would be enough for my online friend to recognize me by, so I just waited outside the gate next to the bouncer guy named Joe.
XxX
I watched as he drove away and I went towards the entrance, almost immediately my eyes landed on a black fedora. I went over with a confused look on my face but smiled lightly, a nicely dressed girl being the owner of that fedora. "Ciao~ ...draw a circle."
XxX
I grinned "...That's the earth~" I held out my hand for her to shake "I'm Victory"
XxX
"I'm Aria, it's nice to meet you Victory." I said, taking her hand and shaking it with a bright smile.
XxX
I took in the sight of the girl before me and smiled even wider. I gave her a thumbs up and said "Cool! you up for some epic music then?"
XxX
"Definitely!" I said, looking over at the bouncer. "Do you like your job?"
XxX
Joe shrugged "It's a job. What can I say? though I must admit it's very easy to pick up girls when you say you work with "Sleeping with the Wishes"
XxX
I laughed, "Yeah I guess so. That must be a pretty nice perk."
XxX
Joe laughed too and said "It is pretty good. Here, let me stamp you girl's hands before you go in" he held out the stamp and the ink
XxX
"Please and thank you~" Aria held out her hand, her Italian joy being obviously contagious.
XxX
I held out my hand too, unable to keep a smile from my face for some reason. Joe stamped our hands and motioned for us inside just as we heard the crowd roar in from their seats. I looked at my new friend and smiled even wider, she just radiated
friendliness and sunshine. As we walked hand in hand to hear our favorite band, I had this feeling that we would make the best of friends.
