I'm about to lose my mind, you've been gone for so long, I'm running out of time, I need a doctor, call me a doctor, I need a doctor; doctor to bring me back to life~
Skylar Grey – I need a Doctor
It had been a long time, over a thousand years and it felt like only yesterday that he was told that he wasn't coming back
"What do you mean, he's gone?! Italy's waiting for him to come back, this cant be happening!" Hungary said with a state of disbelief
"I'm Sorry Ma'm, but there was no one that came back with the name of Holy Roman Empire, the only thing we found that belonged to the boy was a push broom"
a man came beside him and handed him the broom and gave it to her "I'm sorry this is the only thing we could find of him, my deepest condolences" he bowed and walked away
Hungary gripped the broom and started to shake, what was she going to tell him, he was supposed to be back this week
"Miss Hungary, who was at the door?" Italy came out; a bit older looking now in appearance, appearing as a young teenager, still wearing the same color dress that he wore as a young country, amber eye's full of curiosity. She quickly hid the broom behind her back and spoke, trying to hide the pain in her voice
"Ita-chan, I thought you were still cleaning?" She had a fake smile "I finished a while ago" he smiled; looking out the window
"Hungary, I'm so happy right now" she blinked "why is that?" He smiled even more as he explained "Because Holy Rome is finally coming home after fighting for so long" he turned to her, hands behind his back "I'm so happy! We'll finally be together!" he smiled the biggest grin that Hungary had seen since he first met him
"I-is that so? I'm glad to hear that Ita-chan!"
His smile quickly disappeared as he saw that she was in discontent "Miss Hungary, what's the matter? You seem unhappy; did something happen?"
he then noticed that her arms were in an unnatural position, even them being behind her back, she swallowed hard; sweat forming on her brow
"Wh-what are you hiding" he stepped forward, causing her to flinch and step back a bit
"Miss Hungary, what are you hiding from me!" Feli's voice rose, he hated it when people kept secrets from him, she then looked at him with a tearful face
"Ita-chan….." she swallowed hard again "Holy Rome…won't be coming home, he's been declared dead even though there was no dead body" she said sadly, Feli started to tremble
"T-they can't do that! It's wrong!" he cried out not wanting to hear her, he had to come back, they made a promise!
"But they can, Italy, anyone that has been missing for more than 10 years are officially declared legally dead" this couldn't be happening he wanted this to be just a bad dream
" This was all they could find of him…"she finally showed what was hidden to him, it was the broom that he had given to him….it was now covered in blood….still wet from it being retrieved from the fields of battle where he fought
He reached forward slowly, arms shaking as he grabbed the bloodied broom. He started to cry in sorrow as he realized that he wasn't coming back and dropped to the floor, clenching onto the only reminder of him…the only memento that held the memories of him as Hungary pulled him into a reassuring hug and finally crying as well
