Red Room
Chapter 1: School that Gilbert Dislikes
Hello, if you are a new reader, I ask that you read White Room before starting this please. To my returning readers, Hello ^^
Welcome to the first chapter of the first arc of Red Room. Just some things I'd like to say about Red Room itself first:
1. Red Room's character 'tags' (I don't really know what to call it, the character a/1 and character b/2 things XD) will change for every arc, and will be marked by the main characters/ main paring, depending on which it falls under.
2. Generally, arcs are going to be 5 chapters long, but some aren't, and there will be occasional filler chapters that aren't a part of any arc in specific, and might not even take place in red room's timeline (although it will not be an event that would take place in colored room, but maybe in some part of white room. If that is the case, I will probably specify the time period.)
3. Voting for the next arc will usually be from when the 3rd chapter goes up to when the 5th chapter goes up.
4. I can't remember what it was DX I remember the last two now :D The 1st chapter is generally a bit all over the place and is more of an introduction of the characters in the arc.
Lastly, the uploading schedule is going to be the same Monday/Tuesday and Friday/Saturday updates for the most part. Please bear with me, as this will be somewhere around 42 chapters long.
Anyways, please enjoy the chapter.
Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia, only the plot.
"Good morning, Ri-Ri!" Elizaveta called, running to catch up to her best friend.
"Guten Morgen, Eli." Maria said, pausing for a moment to allow the other to catch up with her. "How are you today?"
"Good! Are you coming over tonight?"
"Of course I will, we always spend our Friday nights together. I might be a little late, the new teacher mother has gotten me wants me to practice for a ridiculous amount of time." She huffed.
"I really hate that old bat that you call a teacher. Anyways, it's alright, I'll make sure to get everything ready then." Elizaveta said.
"Alright…" Maria glanced down at her watch. "Verdammt, we're going to be late now!"
"We'd better run then." Elizaveta said, before sprinting.
"Hey! Wait up, Eli! You know I can't run that fast! I'm out of shape compared to you!" Maria called to her, and heard the others laughter in response. She sighed, a small smile making its way onto her face before she ran after Elizaveta.
Basch looked to his left, smiling at the sight of his sister sleeping. Due to their fathers job changing, they had to move to a different part of their country. They'd soon land in Istria, which was far from their hometown, Castia. Soon, they'd be going to a new school...
Basch wasnt too worried- about himself that is. For the most part, he had already accepted it and as far as he could tell, Lily was too. But that wouldnt stop him from worrying, like he already was.
But there wasnt anything he could do about it now. He looked out the window, spotting their destination in the horizon.
He'd just have to wait and see how things would play out, wouldnt he?
Gilbert sat in his English classroom, bored as the teacher droned on, giving a lecture. He decided to pull out his phone, since he felt the teacher's lesson was unimportant.
TheAwesomeGilbert: Unawesome teacher won't shut up D:
EmbraceTheLove: Mon ami, I believe that is the point of school -_-''
TomatoesAndSiestas: The gym teacher isn't here today, so I think I'm going to take a nap ^0^
TheAwesomeGilbert: Really? I'll probably skip that class then. (Also, hush Franny. I know that)
FrustratedMonika: Bruder, don't you dare skip class again. Just because Opa is out of town doesn't mean that you can skip classes.
ShortAndQuiet: Bruder, aren't you supposed to set an example for us?
TheAwesomeGilbert: Moni, quit being a killjoy DX And I am setting an awesome example, Wolfgang. You just can't appreciate it.
FrustratedMonika: I have to be the responsible or else no one will.
TheAwesomeGilbert: Yeah, yeah, whatever, West. Hey, Franny, Toni, have any plans for afterschool?
FrustratedMonika: ._. Bruder, please tell me you aren't doing anything stupid.
TheAwesomeGilbert: Maybe ;)
TomatoesAndSiestas: No, I can go out as long as we don't stay out too late~ How about you, Francis?
EmbraceTheLove: I was actually planning going somewhere. I suppose I can tell you guys, but you can't tell, okay.
TheAwesomeGilbert: I won't, and Moni wont either, right?
FrustratedMonika: … Fine.
EmbraceTheLove: You know that huge Mansion we saw the other day in the woods? I want to go check it out, I saw someone from town go in it the other day.
TheAwesomeGilbert: An adventure? I'm up for it!
TomatoesAndSiestas: I'll go too~! :) Just we can't stay out too long, alright?
FrustratedMonika: I'm going to make sure you stay out of trouble, Bruder.
ShortAndQuiet: I'm not going. Have fun *waves*
Haha, I had fun with this chapter, although it's a bit shorter than I would have liked, but it'll have to do.
I don't feel like I captured Basch well enough though. I think I'll be able to get his personality down in the next chapter though.
I don't support texting during class… just I can imagine them doing this (or at least Gilbert XD). As a guide, in case you couldn't tell who was who:
TheAwesomeGilbert= Gilbert
EmbraceTheLove= Francis
TomatoesAndSiestas= Antonio
FrustratedMonika= Monika
ShortAndQuiet= Wolfgang
I know many of you are now wondering who exactly Wolfgang is. The answer to that is, Wolfgang is Holy Roman Empire. I do support the HRE=Germany theory… but its more fun for writers when we don't C: As to exactly why I chose Wolfgang to be his name:
Ludwig is the name of a German Composer, Ludwig van Beethoven. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is an "Austrian" (At that time, it was the Holy Roman Empire, but its current day Austria) composer. I felt it was fitting to name him that.
The names of the different regions of their country is a bit irrelevant (at this point, anyways), but I'll list them here. Also, all the regions get their names from the Latin names of the 7 virtues:
Castia= Chastity (Castitas)
Terant= Temperance (Temperantia)
Aritas= Charity (Caritas)
Istria= Diligence (Industria)
Paien= Patience (Patientia)
Humtas= Kindness (Humanitas)
Hilitas= Humility (Humilitas)
Unfortunately, the next chapter will not come out for at least a week, as even though next week I don't have school, I will have family over for at least half the week = no using the computer, and I do have other schoolwork I have to finish in the first part of the week. I do apologize for this DX
Review please c:
P.S. The last chapter of white room should go up within the next hour, I hope.
Translations:
Guten Morgen= Good Morning
Verdammt= Damn it
Mon ami= My Friend
Bruder= Brother
Opa= Grandfather
