Author's Note: This is my first every Fanfic. I love Hetalia more then any other anime and I tried to make every character as close to their real personality and I am sorry if any of them are OOC. Please no flames, but helpful comments are welcomed and appreciated. I am always looking to improve my writing. Hope you enjoy it.


Chapter 1

Falling

Smoke.

It was everywhere. What had started as a small spark in the back room had turned into a raging blaze that had engulfed the entire rear of the plane. A loud bang to my left signaled the loss of

our left engine. From the cockpit someone was yelling, but their words were drowned out by the

roar of the flames. I felt someone grabbing my arm and pulling me in the direction of the front of

the plane. I gave no resistance as I was pulled along, only followed coughing and trying to get a

full breath. A loud clang sounded from ahead of me and I felt a sudden wind sucking the smoke

out.

Another bright explosion and then I was falling.

On impulse I closed my eyes and spread myself out. My downward plunge slowed, and I did the one thing you never should do.

I looked down.

I was hundreds of feet in the air, and all I could see was white. I gasped and closed my eyes again, trying to think of anything but the seemingly endless drop below. I must have fainted for a moment because next thing I knew someone was slapping me and calling my name. I opened my eyes and yelped as I saw a snow covered mountain below, growing closer by the second. Closing my eyes again I shook my head violently.

"Matt."

They grabbed my shoulders, gripping them hard enough to leave marks.

"Matt"

I could desperation creeping into the strangely familiar voice.

"Mathew!"

I opened my eyes a crack and found Alfred floating a few feet in front of me.

"Mattie, are you okay?" I stared at him in disbelief. That was probably the stupidest question I could think of to ask at the moment. I tried to say as much but the only thing that came out was a pathetic whimper. Alfred grabbed me, pulling me closer until he had a firm grip around my waist.

"OK,'

Alfred said, yelling to be heard over the wind. "We only have a few more minutes at most before we hit." He must have noticed my horrified expression for he quickly added, "Don't worry, the snow is deep, cushion the fall." He grinned at me bravely, but I knew it was all just an act. Alfred was just as scared as I was though I knew he would never let it show. Not after so much time spent claiming to be the hero. No, Alfred would always keep that cheerful grin, no matter the situation. That was one of the many qualities that I had always envied of my brother.

The mountain was up faster and I grasped Alfred tighter. The last thing I saw before I closed my eyes was the mountainside only seconds away.

Then, there was nothing.


Ok, so that's it for chapter one. I hope you all enjoyed it. I will probably wait until I have at least three reviews before posting the next chapter. So please review! Thx.
