Day to night, dark to light,

Fall the sands of time.

Let the years like the gears

Of a clock unwind

In your mind walk through time

Back to better days.

Memories, like a dream,

Wash tears away.

"Please there has to be something I can do, please anything." I stopped halfway through due to my sobbing, "Bring them back! I want to leave BRING THEM BACK PLEASE!" I collapsed on the floor completely worn out. I looked around me and all was covered in red. Blood their blood exact, the only thing completely untouched by the blood was the clock on the wall. My restart button pretty much. One turn of the hands on that cursed thing and I could restart this again, the result wouldn't change at all though. It never has in all these times. Always ended up in their blood all over the walls, Germany was the last one to fall in this loop.. He died protecting me even though I knew what would happen to him. All of them always die protecting me, I'm not weak at all I will show them I'm strong. I'm strong and smart…. I know I have to sacrifice myself to escape, that's the only way because I put my name in this book.

I pulled myself off the floor and looked at the wretched thing. This is the stupidest thing and the smartest thing I've ever done. 'Fratello and Spain must have been killed also. I never saw them die though that's odd.' They must have died when I was sleeping because I didn't feel Romano's pain. A choked sob erupted from my throat. "Why did I do this? I should have held the door open when we got in last time. IDIOTA".

"You know I could help you and save your friends" I whipped my body around confused, no one is in this hellhole minus me and those damned things.

A chuckle sounded "You're me from this universe how pathetic? I can't believe I'm the same as some weakling just like my fratello"

"Who are you? If you can help me then please do," I pleaded; "Please come out" A midnight black mist appeared in front of me and formed into…. Me. Well a version of me with light purple and red eyes in an old Italian military uniform I would rather like to forget. A small hat with a purple feather was on top of his head with the same curl as me right next to it. I looked at his hands both covered in black gloves and one had a knife in it, the end of the blade was tinted red while the rest was polished perfectly.

"Why are you me or a~" "No I'm not weak and useless like you! But I'm here to make a deal with you to save your friends and your brother" "What is it?" "I can bring all your friends back but you will have to give me something as special as them. I will not be taking their lives do not worry…Do you accept my deal, Feliciano?" I thought about what he would take. There's nothing as special as them, nothing more precious than them alive and happy. "Tick tock you're clock is ticking even faster. Those things are closing in our location, so choose quickly and wisely"

"I'll accept your deal but first who are you?" He walked forward holding his hand out. "My name is Luciano, your other self. Now shake hands to seal the deal" I walked over and grabbed his hand, I was pulled back and then felt myself being jerked forward. I felt the worse pain ever in my stomach region and then felt the familiar warm red liquid on my jacket. "I said I would take something as precious as your friends in return and I did. You're just as much of an idiot as I thought. Goodbye Feliciano and also" He paused and leaned in to whisper into my ear " "I lied have fun with your dead friends. Viva la Italia"

A sucking like sound was heard when the knife was pulled out of my stomach and I fell back onto the ground. No this can't be.. I don't want to die! I want to see Germany! I want to see Fratello calling me an idiot when I try to hug him. I want to hear Prussia and France's laughs. I would even want to eat England's cooking… "Why do they take so long to die? Kuro's counterpart took a very long time to die also" Luciano's voice drew me out of my thoughts and I noticed stray tears running down my face. I didn't think I had any more to shed after the 15th time loop. That's the one where I lost him last and the thing almost killed me before I could say the chant. No Feliciano stop, focus on getting to the clock room to rewind the clock.

I started to weakly crawl trying to get to the clock room, when I felt a foot stand on my back. I heard Luciano chuckle to himself. It wasn't like my chuckle, this one was full of evil and sarcasm. "Don't try, you'll bleed out before you can get to the room. Actually I would like to see you try" he removed his foot from my back. "Go on weakling. Try your best". I knew I wouldn't make it by myself; he just wanted to laugh at my pity. I decided if I was going to die, I was not going to give him the satisfaction. All my pain and suffering will be done, and I'll be able to be with the other nations happily, I'll be able to be happy and smile again. Almost there, I could feel myself walking on thin ice, underneath the ice was the black abyss of death.

"WeLL noW tHaT yoU and ThE REsT Of the 1PS arE out oF the WaY. LOnG LiVe THe 2PS" That was the last thing I heard before I was pulled into the cold, deep, black abyss.

I would tell you an amount of time if I could, but later I opened my eyes to see a meadow. Golden grass with flowers of every color and some colors I didn't know of dotted the golden grass. The sky was a beautiful blue with the sun shining brightly, though I could feel no heat. Just like the day before I entered the mansion, before every time loop. My eyes glanced across the meadow till they locked sight on a figure well many figures in the distance. As soon as I saw the figures, I broke into a sprint towards them.

The first person who came into focus was my fratello, he was glaring at someone or something, probably Spain. Then two figures came into focus at the same time, my allies, my beloved best friends. I stopped a couple feet in front of them and just looked at all the nations. They were all fine and okay, no bruises or broken limbs, no blood, not even a scratch.

"You know Fratello we've been waiting for you to join us, especially that potato bastard of your's. I'm sorry for what your bastard of a 2p did to you. I wish I could of been there to help." I blinked a couple of times and then responded, "It's fine Romano, I missed you so much, don't worry we'll talk later. I must go see Germany and Japan now though" He nodded "I have to deal with an idiot and his trio, so don't worry about me" He walked off back to the Bad touch trio who have joined Spain in the time Romano was talking to me.

When Spain my brother he was immediately engulfed in a hug by the said spaniard, causing a slight smile to pass over my brother's lips. If you weren't myself or Spain you wouldn't notice such a quick and beautiful thing, being trapped in the mansion so long made me forget what seeing people smile felt like. I smiled at the sight and walked over to Germany and Japan.

In the way over I could hear England and America bickering over something stupid. The last time I saw them, America was protecting a blind England while I ran far and fast. I shook my head to get the memory away and continued walking. I stopped in front of my destination again, and looked up. "Long time no see Italia, we've missed you up here." "Welcome to the safest place ever Italy" I was happy to see that where Germany once had a deep head wound there was only a long scar, and there was no blood running down Japan's face.

NO, Italy stop you're out, you're free the monster can't get you and your friends up here. "I've missed you two also, I'm just glad we're all safe." I looked around and saw all the nations doing their own things. Prussia and France was teasing Romano about Spain, while Spain was trying to help Romano. England and America were still bickering over some useless thing probably, I noticed a somewhat transparent country next to them watching them bicker.

I looked around the meadow for Russia and China, and was confused until I saw China sleeping on the floor cuddling his panda with Russia laying down next to China, Russia's arm around China. Russia did this every time China went to sleep in the mansion, he would protect him.

"Italy for once, Well I can't believe i'm saying this but, there's a kitchen here and Romano stocked it full of every type of italian food, against all of our's wills. I haven't had pasta in a while, would you mind making Japan and I some?" Japan nodded in agreement to what Germany said.

I haven't made pasta in a long time, so many years, maybe over 5. In the mansion, I was too stressed to cook. If it was possible my smile widened "I'd be glad to make you two and everyone pasta. Now show me where this kitchen is per favor?" They started walking and I followed. Maybe dying wouldn't be bad, except for the 2ps taking over our world. Will we still feel our countries pain from wars and such? I'll worry about that later I guess.

At the place opposite of where Feliciano was, still stood the violent, bloody, italian standing over his 1p's body. "Guess I owe Oliver for creating that monster along with this terrible place." He walked out smiling sadistically to himself, ready to greet his and his allies new empire, 'mostly my empire' he thought to himself. The outside was similar to what Feliciano was seeing a bright blue sky with the sun shining down, truly beautiful. What wasn't known was that the sky would soon turn red because of the wars that will be fought, the air will become foggy with the dust from explosions, there will be no birds chirping only the sounds of screams in the air. "Welcome to the empire of the 2ps, The empire that will never fall!"
