Okay! Sorry I didn't do this sooner, I COMPLETELY FORGOT! So, I'll say this now: I do not own these characters! They belong to the anime Hetalia! So...yeah! I think that's it.
"Liet. Liet, like, get up!"
Toris opened his eyes as he slowly came to. His gaze moved around, studying his surroundings while trying to remember what had happened. Looking up, Toris saw a face stare down at him, looking concerned, or annoyed, Toris couldn't tell.
"C'mon, Toris, snap out of it! We haven't even gone inside the building, and you've already had a panic attack! Pull yourself together, would you?"
Suddenly, Toris remembered what happened and what he was doing. He shook his head, getting off his knees and standing up. Toris looked over at Feliks who stood beside him, supporting while he got back his bearings.
"I don't think we should do this." Toris said nervously.
"Aw, c'mon, Toris," Feliks' voice held a whined tone as he replied. "Don't back out now, not on your own idea!"
"It wasn't even my idea!"
"Yeah…but you agreed to it!"
"Because you forced me to!"
"That doesn't matter!" Feliks let out a long breath, crossing his arms. "Liet, you can't back out now when you've gotten this far. You won't even tell me what's so bad about it! It's not fair for me! But if you don't tell me, fine. But at least pull through with this."
Toris sighed as he saw the look on his friend's face. The stubborn Pole wasn't going to budge on this one, so there was no escape for the nervous Lithuanian. With a reluctant nod, Toris agreed to continue with their plan to sneak into the large house in front of them.
"Alright," Toris began. "We probably need to go in through an open window. That is, if we're lucky to find one."
"Or…" Feliks interrupted, stepping up to the back door they were in front of. "We could use this." He pulled something out of his pocket, and Toris caught a small glint from the light nearby. It was a small paper clip, just an ordinary bent piece of metal. Feliks winked back at Toris, stepping up to the door and crouching a bit. He then began to poke the point of the paper clip into the lock and twist it around.
Toris sighed again, putting a hand to his forehead. He had taught Feliks that trick in case he were in trouble and in need of help. He really didn't expect Feliks to use that for something like this. Soon enough though, the door silently opened, and the two stepped inside the dark room of the house.
It was definitely dark, almost pitch black even. And the room was silent as well; so quiet, you could hear a pin drop. Toris couldn't see anything, and didn't even know what room of the house he was in. In fact, he could barely make out Feliks' shadow as he pulled Toris along.
"We really shouldn't be here…" Toris said anxiously, glancing around the dark room.
Feliks shushed him and continued to walk for a few seconds. Then he stopped and turned to face Toris, though the other couldn't see his face.
"Do you hear that?" Feliks asked.
Toris paused a moment, listening carefully. Faintly from somewhere in the house, Toris could hear music. It was quiet, barely even audible, but it was there. Certainly a party was going on, judging by the beat of the songs being played. Toris couldn't guess where in the house though, but surely it wasn't close by.
"Hey, what's this?" The Pole's voice suddenly sounded from the silence. "Oh, it's the light switch!" And before Toris could protest, a small click sounded and light filled the room.
Toris glanced from Feliks' proud, smiling face, to the other parts of the room. His eyes suddenly flew wide and his heart began to race. The things he saw seemed to overwhelm him, sending images that popped up in his mind one after another. Only, they weren't images; they were memories. The background suddenly seemed to fade around Toris, any noises being washed away. Toris screamed, and then his world became black.
Toris drearily opened his eyes, the world becoming blurry at first glance. He was staring upwards, also seeing Feliks' worried face staring down at him. But he didn't just see Feliks; other faces were looking down at him as well, mostly holding confused expressions.
Toris gasped quietly, sitting up and looking around. His heart seemed to race as he remembered the reason he had fainted in the first place. The very thought of it made him feel uneasy again, and he had to close his eyes a moment to settle the new dizziness inside him. He opened his eyes again as he head shuffling from the group of other kids in front of him. He looked around to see who was coming forward, only to stiffen as a familiar voice sounded behind him.
"You're okay, da? You're looking like you had quite a scare."
