Chapter 1 - Introduction to the Three

Hayley's P.O.V

"Leave her alone!" I heard a loud voice shout, making me turn around to see who the owner of the voice was.

My cheeks instantly warmed as I saw the very attractive male in front of me. He had dusty blonde hair, with a strand of hair sticking up at the hair line. His cerulean eyes were hidden behind silver glasses; his blue irises flickering with anger and loyalty. The blonde was wearing a dirty, white t-shirt with ripped jeans and tattered sneakers.

But his outfit wasn't what captured my attention, nor his features.

It was the locket he was wearing. My own locket, which was given to me by my father before he disappeared, was on his neck. It confused me immensely as to why I would give the stranger my locket seeing as it was the only remaining memory I had of my father, before he left when I was only a few months old.

"Who are you?" I tried to call out but no sound left my mouth. Suddenly, the scene in front of me transformed to a meeting room.

A long table took up most of the room, and there was a podium at one end of it with countless chairs filled by many young adults. My eyes narrowed as I saw my best friends, Sarah and Shade, sitting next to...me?

Sure enough, there was me; same black, choppy hair, same electric blue eyes, and same punkish style of clothing. 'How can there be two of me at once?!' I thought to myself with a bit of panic.

"Excuse me?" I walked towards the nearest person, who was a young man with olive tan skin and brown hair that had a strange curl sticking out at the side. 'What the hell is with these people and having strange hair?' I asked myself silently. The man ignored me, which only made me upset with his rude behavior.

"Hello~?" I waved my hands in front of him, but he still gave me no response. "DUDE! I'M RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU! LOOK AT ME!" I shouted at him, jumping up and down. No response.

"Ugh!" I groaned before gasping. "Wait...Romano?" I finally remembered who he was. He looked at me with a confused expression before shrugging and going back to the meeting.

The scene changed once more.

My eyes opened and searched around the room I was in.

It was my bedroom. The navy blue walls were still covered with band posters and pictures of my friends, and the cream carpet was still covered with random junk.

I had woken up, and it was all just a dream.

"I need to clean this place up." I noted before jumping off of my bed. "What happened before...was that a dream?" I asked nobody as I picked up the garbage and threw it into the wastebasket. "Of course it was just a dream, but then..." I shook my head. "Don't be ridiculous Hayley, it was only a weird dream; nothing to worry about." I sighed and walked into the bathroom.

It was obviously just a longing fantasy of mine to be with the Hetalia gang, right?

"...but I don't want to wear a dress to our date later."

I nodded at Sarah's dilemma.

Sarah Jackson, my best friend. We met each other when we were 9 at a summer camp for the gifted. I went there for my ability to learn things quickly and perfectly on the first try, along with the fact that I was very advanced in reading and writing; I was in 3rd grade at the time, and I was at a 5th grade level. Sarah went to the camp because of her amazing art skills (most of her art being anime or Legend of Zelda), also because she was really smart.

Sarah has light brown hair that was usually put in a side braid, and sea green eyes with fair skin. She was actually the one that introduced me to anime, which led to Hetalia.

"Would you stop rubbing in our faces that you have a boyfriend and that we're forever alone?!" The girl on my left side complained.

Shade Grey. Her name fit her perfectly; she had midnight black hair with dark brown highlights, and very dark brown eyes that seemed like they were violet in the right light.

Hehe. 'Right light.' That rhymed!

Anyway, Shade is the most athletic out of the three of us and the one the knows the least about anime. I don't think she has actually watched an anime before, which saddens me but I will try to get her to watch anime if it is the last thing I do!

Shade and I met when her dad visited my mother. Apparently my dad was her dad's boss and a really good friend.

Speaking of my dad...I opened my locket and traced the small picture of my mother and father.

My dad had the same electric blue eyes as I did and messy, blonde hair. When I first got into Hetalia, I noticed that my dad looked like an older version of America without glasses and no cowlick. Coincidence? Most likely.

My mother in the picture had chocolate brown eyes that held warmth and comfort, with wavy brown hair that reached her mid back. In the photo, she seemed a lot younger than today even though it was taken only seventeen years ago. I guess being a single mother with a seventeen year old daughter can be pretty stressful.

I stared at the locket for a while until I felt something punch me in the shoulder. "Ow!" I yelped and glared at my best friend. Sarah stuck her tongue out at me and laughed, handing me a cup of hot chocolate. from Starbucks. I didn't even notice that she had gone into Starbucks.

"Thanks." I smiled and took a sip of the hot liquid. I sighed contently as the beverage warmed me up. Sure, it was only November but it was quickly getting really cold. My eyes looked around the park that we were in and I smiled to myself.

"I like New York during the fall-winter time of year." Shade took a sip of her coffee. Sarah nodded in agreement and I adjusted my jacket.

"Hey Hayley?" Sarah caught my attention. "Hm?" I took another sip of hot chocolate and looked at the brunette.

"Don't those people over there look like the Axis and Allies?" She asked me with an excited tone. Shade only scoffed as she knew that Sarah would start to go off about anime and stuff like that.

Sighing, I looked over to where Sarah was pointing and saw a group of eight people looking around with confusion or anger etched on their faces. Raising an eyebrow, I nodded and let out a grunt of agreement.

The group of men looked exactly like the main Hetalia characters, which scared me and surprised me at the same time. Looking back at my two best friends, I raised my eyebrows which clearly said, 'What do you think?'

"They're looking in out direction." Shade said monotonously. I looked back to the men and saw that they were indeed looking at us.

"That's creepy," I shivered. "Let's go." I motioned for Sarah and Shade to leave the park.

The two of them followed me, but I felt as if the Hetalia lookalikes were following us.

"Stalker much?" I heard Sarah mutter, which proved my point correct. "Walk faster." Shade suggested and our small group sped up.

Soon enough we were running through the crowded sidewalks of New York with the lookalikes on our trail.

"What the hell do they want from us?" Sarah panted and looked back to glare at the men.

"What makes you think that I know?!" I shot back with an annoyed tone. "I swear, if they don't leave us alone then I will freaking-"

"-quick, in here!" Shade and Sarah said in perfect unison and dragged me into an alleyway.

"An alleyway?!" I squeaked. "Everyone knows that an alleyway is the worst place to go to when you're being chased by inhumanely hot guys that looked like anime characters." I panicked.

Sarah sighed and smacked me. "Snap outta it!" She growled. I held onto my cheek and nodded. "Thanks, I needed that."

"Now, we need to call the police or something and then we need to get out of this alley." Sarah plotted. Shade pointed at a fire escape at the end of the alley. "We can leave through there."

I took out my phone. "I can call the popo." I smirked before sensing something behind me.

"Finally, we found you."

Dundundun! xD Cliffhanger!

So yeah, I AM BACK FROM MY LONG HIATUS! *Throws sparkles* I decided that I have done quite a bit of PJO & HP crossovers and I wanted to do something new, so I created this crap. *Emo corner* This is so pathetic T-T

The next chapter has a lot more of the Hetalia characters in it, along with an epic fight scene! :D So stay tuned~ c:
