Dear Diary,

Everyone has a story, a beginning, a start. So this is mine, it is simple, like my life is simple.

My name is Madeline, when I was little, before I was a country, a colony, before I was even on the map. I lived with my twin sister Abigail. At that time neither of us had last names. Those we gained from the countries that adopted up.

Like I was saying, I used to live with my sister Abigail. We lived together until one day...

We were fishing down at our favorite river. It was our favorite because it ran through both of our lands. "Maddie are you waddy to go?" Abigail asked, but I wasn't paying attention. I had seen a little white mass a few yards away.

Bobbing and flailing in the water. "Abigail... Do you see that?" I said running to the white mass in the water.

"Maddi! Where are you going?" Abby cried running after me. I didn't listen to her instead I kept running. "It's a bear!" I shouted when I was about 5ft away from it. "It's going to drown!" I grabbed a tree branch and leaned out farther; I managed to grab the bear but lost my footing.

…Splash…

"Maddi!" I heard Abby scream but I couldn't keep my head above the water. I felt myself being pulled upstream, my lungs filled with water. Nations can't drown through, it's just really uncomfortable. I just closed my eyes when I felt the bear licking my face. I sat up and looked around, the familiar forests and trees were gone. Worst of all, Abigail was gone… And I was all alone. I started to cry. Then bear snuggled his nose against me, reminding me that I wasn't completely.

Over the years the bear never got any bigger or older. He always stayed by my side, he even talked to me.

"Mr. Bear… How come you can talk?"

"Because."

"Because Why?"

"I stand for that wildlife portion of Canada, being a part of a Nation I can do such things."

I giggled; he sighed and said "I'm not really a bear." I giggle more.

"Yes you are, you have paws and fur."

"I may look like a bear but I can talk… Do you know any other bears that talk?"

Later that day. He told me his name was Kumajirou and the was my token (Whatever that meant). Kumajirou and I were together for hundreds of years (just us) before a man dressed in blue came and changed everything.


~Chapter ending~ I wanted Kumajirou to semi make up for losing Abi so I went OOC and gave him the ability to talk… In complete sentences, like a person. I couldn't have Maddie being depressed…. Love Maddie…
