"This is a very special task you will all be given. You will all have a child to take care of, along with another fellow country to help you. This task is to make sure that each of your countries are suitable places for children to live and that people can feel safe with raising a family there. By the end of two weeks, you will each have spent a week in each other's country while taking care of the child. Please be extra careful, for these Mothers are intrusting you with their children. You will also be told to capture a moment with these video cameras that represent how the whole deal went; Anyway, no child will be over six years of age." The announcement was made, earning curious looks from everyone in the room. Despite this, each and every country had two things on their mind; who were they going to be partnered with, and who was their child that they were going to take care of going to be?
"Now, this meeting has come to an end. The list is over there telling who is going to be partnered with who." The announcer said. In an almost awkward manner, each country proceeded to get up and go look at the list. Some reactions were expected; some weren't.
"Ugh! Why do I have to work with you, you bloody git?" Arthur announced, looking over at Alfred who looked pretty happy with it. He smiled. "Because you obviously can't handle taking care of a child without a hero!" He replied courageously. Arthur rolled his eyes in response.
"Look Yao, you get to be with me." Ivan said to Yao, who looked absolutely horrified. Ivan smiled in a creepily loving way, earning a worried expression from Yao. "I wonder if the child's going to be a boy or a girl. You can be the Mommy Yao-Yao." He said, making him cringe. "That's just creepy! Why would I have to the mother anyway, aru?" He asked, a blush piled onto his cheeks. Ivan laughed. "Because you have mood changes, like ladies." He said. Yao pouted. "You're the one to talk." He added.
"I'm sorry Cuba. It looks like you're stuck with me." Canada said nervously to Cuba. "Aw, you don't have to sorry amigo. Just as long as you're not America, were good." He said, a smile upon his face. Cuba and Canada were both quite happy to be paired together; especially Canada, though.
"Hercules-san, it appears we are partners." Kiku said to Hercules. Hercules smiled gently with a look of happiness swirled in his eyes. Kiku lighted blushed, his hands nervously playing with each other. "I think we will have no problem. You would make a good parent in real life, Kiku." He said softly. A heavier blush flowed to Kiku's face, making him automatically smile. "Arigato, Hercules." He replied.
"Ludwig! I can't take care of a child, this is scary!" Feliciano exclaimed, a horrified look on his face. Ludwig sighed. "I know." He replied bluntly. Feliciano dived into Ludwig's arms, who stroked his head lovingly. "Great. Now I have two children to take care of." Ludwig thought aloud.
"No! Why do I have to be with such a creep!" Seychelles said, looking over at Francis. Francis grinned. "Now, now, madam, I can assure you it will all turn out perfectly fine, non?" She intensely glared at him, despite the fact he was actually trying to be reassuring. She crossed her arms, and flipped her hair out of her face. "I'm not going to let you even breathe near that innocent child." She said, stomping off. Francis was devastated to be so denied.
"Haha, hey Gupta, looks like we're going to have to take care of more children." Sadiq said, his mischievous eyes sparkling. Gupta stared blankly. "I see no problem in this. Let's just get this over with." He replied plainly. Sadiq frowned. "Oh, come on now, let's have a little fun, okay?" He said jokingly to Gupta, who was clearly wasn't amused at all.
"Oh my god. Why. Just, just, why." Vash said, noting that Roderich wasn't exactly happy with the decision either. He breathed in deeply, trying to keep calm. Roderich rolled his eyes. "Don't be such a child. We just need to care for this kid, and everything will be alright. Goodness." Roderich said calmly. Vash calmed down, despite the angry look on his face. "Alright. I can agree to that." He replied.
"Damn! Why the hell do I have to be with such a bastard such as you?" Romano said to Antonio, who smiled and pulled him into an embrace. "Oh, this is so wonderful! I hope it's a girl, I have so many outfits for her that would be so cute!" He said, squishing Romano against his chest. Romano shoved him away, his face flushed. "Bastard..." He muttered, glaring at Antonio who was still blabbing on about the outfits he would dress her in.
"Like, Liet, look! We are totally partners." Feliks said to Toris, who smiled. "That's wonderful! I don't think I would have trusted anyone else to take care of a child with me." He said happily. Feliks beamed. "Like, is that true? That's like, so sweet Liet!" He said, happily spinning around childishly in circles. He soon turned to jump into Toris's arms jokingly; they both burst into fits of laughter.
"What? I thought I wasn't old enough to participate in this." Raivis said, his large blue eyes worried. Eduard smiled softly. "I guess you are. But, don't worry, I'm sure the child will be in good care between the two of us." Eduard said thoughtfully. Raivis smiled sweetly in return. "It will be sort of like having a little brother or sister, right?" Raivis said. Eduard grinned and nodded.
"Oh hell no!" Elizabeta said angrily to Gilbert, who laughed. "I'm not even a country anyone! Haha, guess I'm just to awesome to be left out!" He said proudly, glad to be accepted in something, for he hadn't in a long time. Elizabeta angrily stomped over to Seychelles, who was fuming too. They both started telling each other their situations.
Gilbert and Francis were left there frowning. "This is going to be crazy!" Gilbert said, earning a nod from Francis.
"I have no doubt in my mind that it won't be."
