Chap 1: Prologue

Before I start, I might explain a few things. I'm Canada, but also Matthew Williams. It sounds weird, doesn't it? But yes, I am a country.

It's currently year 2050 and World War Three. It started when Alfred, my own twin-brother and USA, stopped going to world meetings and started to shoot missiles at me. But that was just the beginning.

Soon he attacked Greenland, an area owned by Mikkel Køhler or more famous as Denmark. Then he dropped a bomb in Canada. That bomb killed almost half a million of my people.

Soon after that, Alfred declared war against the world. The nordics united. Francis and Arthur, France and UK also formed an aliance. Switzerland and Liechtenstein declared them neutral. China and Russia became allies. Mexico joined USA, strangely enough. And so did North Korea and almost every country in South America.

"Mattias är skadad…" I heard a voice on the other side of my door. It was deep and spoke a language I thought I had heard before, from a very long time ago.

"Jeg vil gerne have ham i vores union" another deep voice. Also a familiar language.

"Jeg er enig med deg, Mikkel" A third deep voice, still familiar language.

"Hefur einhver einhverjar andmæli?" A not so deep voice, a forth familiar language.

'I really wonder who those are. Where are they from..? And what do they want..?' I thought.

Five "Nei" was heard outside.

"Då går vi in." A light voice, from a man said. Sounded like the first persons language or dialect, but not the same fluency or quite the same dialect.

There was three knockings on my door.

"Come in."

Denmark, Norway, Iceland, Sweden and Finland, or known as Mikkel, Aleksander, Aron, Berwald and Tino, entered.

"May I ask on which purpose you are here?"

"We want you to be our ally." Denmark said.

"Why?"

I looked at them sceptically.

"It's complicated." Norway answered, calmly.

"Take a seat and explain, I have plenty of time." I gestured at a big sofa and they sat down in the sofa.

"Well, it started for many, many hundreds of years ago, long before you were found by Francis." Denmark started. "It was around year 1000" He continued.

"All five of us went out to the sea… The trip was rough and at last we arrived to Vinland." Norway calmly said.

"Vinland..?" It sounded so very familiar.

"Yes... Vinland. Though y'might n't rem'b'r it, but it was you. You are Vinland". Sweden, or Berwald, said with a straight face.

"W-what..? Y-you must be mistaken… I-I can not possibly be Vinland."

"Yes you are, Matthew." Finland said, looking in my eyes.

"…How can you be so sure that I am Vinland..?"

"You are not like your brother." Iceland, who had until now been quiet said. "Do you still wear that necklace…? The one made of bronze?"

I froze. I had never told anyone about that necklace, with signs I never had understood and still wondered what they meant.

"How did you know about that necklace?"

"I made it for you; I engraved your name on it… Well, our version of your name, Mattias" Danmark answered.

"But, I still don't understand, why would you like to have me as your ally?"

"We raised you for a short time, but were driven away. We all wished to return and meet you again" Finland, Tino, started. "But after you were found by Francis, we didn't really have our chance. After year 2000 a lot of things happened…"
"So are you with us?" Mikkel asked.

"…" I though for a while. "Yes, I'll join you."

The Nordics rose from my sofa, shook my hand and went out. I looked at my necklace I always wore, but never showed anyone. I had a funny feeling in my stomach. Had I made the right decision?

A/N:

Mattias är skadad - (Swedish): Mattias is hurt(damaged, you get the thing.)

Jeg vil gerne have ham i vores union - (Danish): I (really) want him in our union.

Jeg er enig med deg, Mikkel - (Norwegian): I agree with you, Mikkel

Hefur einhver einhverjar andmæli? - (Icelandic): Does anyone have any objections?

Då går vi in - (Swedish): Let's go inside/Then let's go in.

I thought that Tino would talk swedish too, since finish isn't close to swedish/danish/norwegian/icelandic.
Also, I gave Iceland, Norway and Denmark names~

Norway - Aleksander

Iceland - Aron

Denmark - Mikkel

And thank you Neji/Aneki (she's not on ) for giving me insperation, name ideas etc.
