Life in Color

Dear Readers, I hope you like my new story! Also, seeing I wasn't able to find any recently added countries that had no help from the other countries, I decided to create my own. I hope you like her!
"Alright, everyone." Germany said, getting the attention of the other nations, "A new country is joining us today. She is the island country of Zoablanca, and I expect for this meeting to go well, as it is her first time. However, any offenders will be shown no mercy." He looked pointedly at France, his brother, America, and quite a few others. France + Women = Bad news, period. It was a given with him, whether he was around women or not, and was made all the worse when England was around. Prussia and America added to the chaos before the other countries got involved, and then it snowballed from there.
"Dude, no offense, but none of us have even heard of this country, so how are we supposed to do that when we don't know a thing about her?" Germany sighed.
"I have no idea, which is why we need to make a good impression with her! Her country is a leader in the jewel industry, but is very animal- and environmentally-friendly. Which is an example some of us should follow." Germany directed the last part towards quite a few countries, who blushed and avoided his eyes.
"When's she going to get here?" England asked. Germany rubbed his temples.
"If I knew that, then I would tell you. As it is, she could come in at any-" It was at that point that the doors opened. The countries turned to see a young, tanned woman enter. Her eyes were the deepest blue, like the ocean, her red hair was so long is nearly touched the floor, and she wore a light green t-shirt with soft pink flowers, along with a long, multicolored skirt. Her feet were bare, wearing no shoes, and in her hands, looking very out of place, was a gray briefcase.
"Hello, new friends." she said softly, bowing, "I'm Zoablanca, and it's nice to meet you." Straightening up, she calmly walked to her seat, ignoring the stares she got from everyone, especially the boys, where even Greece was staring at her. Her seat was between America and Canada, opposite from Russia, and she put her briefcase in her seat before facing Germany.
"Mr. Germany, is it alright if I went to the podium to talk about myself and my country?" Her words seemed to snap Germany out of a daze, as he quickly nodded. Nodding back, Zoablanca went to the podium and began to speak.
"As I have already told you, I'm Zoablanca, an island country in the northern Atlantic between Canada and America. My human name is Lehua Tsubasa, which I prefer to my country name. My country does well with mining the jewels on our island, which is where most of our economy is based. Another part of our economy comes from all of our conservation services, helping to protect our animals and nature itself. Now that we have finally come out of isolation, I hope that both my country and I can grow, from experience and economy. However," she leaned suddenly forward, now looking darker than she had before, not as light and happy, "I've heard of your histories, and my country is peace-loving. If you try to wage war on us or drag us into one of your conflicts, you'll be wasting your time. Wage war on us, and even though we want peace, we won't hesitate to defend ourselves; try to bring us into a war with someone else, and we'll act like Switzerland when he deals with trespassers. Don't underestimate my country, for we WILL give you all a run for your money. Even Russia and America would have a hard time with us, I'm sure." This made the nations look worried while the aforementioned ones frowned. If she thought she could take them on that easily, then she was wrong. However, they weren't ones to ignore warnings, so they wouldn't make a move against her. Yet.
Then, as quickly as it had come, her dark side disappeared and she smiled, "I hope to have a wonderful time with all of you! Any of you are welcome to visit my home at any time, as long as it isn't for any purposes I have already mentioned and you contact me beforehand." She then cheerfully went back to her seat, placing the briefcase on the table as she took her seat.
"Ah, yes, thank you, Zoablanca." Germany said, being polite by using her country name, "Well then, with such a warm introduction of yourself, I hope you get along with the other nations and learn more about them, including myself." He then went on to call Austria up for his presentation.
As the meeting wore on, Lehua noticed all the stares she was getting, mainly from the boy nations, especially Russia and America. The girls, however, were glaring at her for some reason she couldn't understand. The meeting also seemed to stay on track, going peacefully, which surprised many of the nations. They weren't used to having this much time to solving the world's problems without interruption.
Shortly afterword, the meeting was stopped for break, and it was one of the very, very rare times no one wanted to leave. Lehua, however, excused herself to go to the bathroom and go outside for some fresh air, as she hadn't seen Ottawa before, where the meeting was being held.
"Anyone else notice how calm and confident she was?" Prussia asked, for once not wanting to proclaim how awesome he was, "She's a bit strange, especially challenging you guys like that."
"I agree with Prussia." Japan said, "Before any hasty actions are taken, we must learn more about her. It would be both strange and rude to declare war on her right after she joined us."
"Well, if she saw my military, then she wouldn't be so confident." America said, frowning.
"Da." Russia nodded, not smiling at all, which seemed to increase the creepy feeling around him.
"Yeah, well, none of you boys may have noticed," Hungary voiced, "but all of you were staring at her like she was some steak on a stick."
"For once, I have to agree." Liechtenstein surprisingly said, "Even you were were staring at her, big brother, along with the Nordics and Netherlands." That made all of the mentioned nations blush, even Norway, Netherlands, and Sweden.
"Did you stare at her because she was prettier?" Ukraine asked, eyes narrowing menacingly, which was unlike her.
"What if we told you we have no idea?" Lithuania asked sheepishly.
"What if we told you we don't care and would still kill you?" Belarus said, bearing her teeth in a snarl, making Lithuania hide behind Estonia.
"Well, I'd like to take her up on her offer to visit!" Italy proclaimed, not sensing the tense mood, "She seems very nice and cute!"
"I bet that's because all of you like her!" Belgium shouted, being very unlike herself and pointing accusingly at the men.
"No f***ing way!" Romano protested.
"HOLD IT!" France, surprisingly, roared. When all attention was on him, he continued, "She is very pretty, and all of the boys, including myself, seem to have a eye for her. However, it is making you ladies jealous, no?" This time it was the women who blushed, "If it will make you feel better, I propose a contest."
"What contest?" China asked.
"All of the nations, both men and women, will try become Lehua's friends, and the men will try to get her to like them. Whoever Lehua chooses to love will be the end of the contest, and none of us can go after her."
"...For once, frog, that's a bloody brilliant idea!" England said, "This way, we can find out more about her, who she likes, and the girls won't hurt us all that much!" Many of the women glared at him in response to that.
"And if she doesn't fall in love?" Spain asked. France shrugged.
"Then the contest is invalid and no one goes after her, or she allows herself to become free game to anyone." he answered.
"I don't like this." Poland said, "What if she finds out? She'll hate all of us for sure and go back into isolation!"
"That's a chance we'll have to take, isn't it?" Latvia sighed.
"If everyone agrees, then the contest is now underway!" Australia said. No one said a word, all agreeing with the contest, though some more reluctantly than others.
I know, I'm still going to do my other Hetalia story, but I just suddenly got this idea and had to write it! Also, like I said in my other story, I do not like to use cuss words, so I will blot most of them out. Also, who do you think Lehua will end up with? And other thing, as the girls are jealous of Lehua getting all the attention, they will be somewhat OOC. Anyway, READ & REVIEW!
