Konichiwa! Here is the second chapter. The story begins pretty much from here on in.


Notes:

'Flare it up and...'- This is England's demon summoning song. It can be found on Youtube and I recommend listening to it. It's creepy yet cool but it's England so it's sexy!

'...Ganbare England-san'- This means "Good luck England"


Tanoshimu!


"Right so now that's done I'll move onto this bit..." England muttered under his breath.

"I really don't think this is a good idea..." Flying Mint Bunny whispered to Tinkerbell.

Tinkerbell and Uni shook their heads. All three of them knew that no good could come of this and that England was definitely going the wrong way about the situation. Leprechaun and Captain Hook came in with smiles upon their faces.

"We locked the doors so they'll think yer still out." Leprechaun explained.

"What's England doing?" Hook asked.

"A huge mistake." Tinkerbell said as she watched England draw the final part of his pentagram.

"You remember that one day last week?" Flying Mint Bunny asked.

Both the Leprechaun and Captain Hook nodded grimly as they both had a very vivid image of what had happened last week...

-Flashback-

Everything was going wrong. There wasn't much point beating about the bush: England was losing money-fast. Countries had suffered through money problems in the past of course but none as bad as this. Most countries weren't as willing to help others anymore. It was every man, woman and child in Sealand's case, for themselves. England was one of those countries and his unwillingness to help others in the past now affected him in the present.

"I guess I'll have to start sucking up to some people..." England sighed.

"I don't know if I'd use that term but yeah it's the best place to start..." Tinkerbell admitted sheepishly.

Uni nodded too and threw back her mane. Flying Mint Bunny flew around England once to show him he had her full support. England nodded and dialled up the number of the first of many countries.

"Ja, zis is Germany shpeaking." The serious German's voice said on the other end as he answered the phone.

"G-good morning Germany." England stuttered.

"It's afternoon here." Germany said bluntly.

"Really? Wow by how much?"

"Eins minute."

There was an awkward silence but England still pressed on.

"Right. So hey Germany?"

"Ja."

"I-I wouldn't mind forming a temporary alliance with you! For your sake! Not for mine."

Again, there was another awkward silence before England heard the sound of Germany hanging up on him. England was a little put out but he didn't let himself get discouraged, instead he called up another country. It took a couple of rings and eventually England got through to Russia's answer phone.

"Dombray Utra. I am busy right now but please leave a message and I will get back to you. Then I will call you and you will become one with Mother Russia. Da...?"

England was about to leave a message, but after hearing the answering phone he decided against it. Next he called up China.

"Ni hao. China speaking."

"China I need some help with my money. You're the only one that can help since I can't call that Frog Face and I tried Germany but he's too serious and Russia told me to become one with him so form an alliance with me!"

England said that a little faster than he meant to and to make things worse he may have been a little pushy. He hoped that China wouldn't be affected by this and he set his hopes too high.

"...Ai ya..." China sighed.

Then China promptly hung up. England tried phoning numerous countries but...

"Sure I will 'elp you. Now 'ow about you come round to my place and we can... Sort things out..."

They all...

"...Ganbare England-san."

Turned him down.

"Please help you're the last person there is!" England begged.

"No no you have the wrong number! This is the box of tomatoes fairy!"

England hung up on Italy, his last hope who just turned out to be a coward as usual. All countries had turned him down, well France didn't but England didn't enjoy the idea of becoming France's new 'pleasure slave' or something.

To make matters worse, all countries were now officially aware of his situation and the World Conference was next week. They'd all surely make fun of him now.

"Nothing else to be done..." England sighed.

He took out the newspaper and began searching in the job section. In any other situation, England would have found some of the job offers amusing, but now that was not the case.

Friend needed- Will pay maximum of £10 for a friend. (I would use other currency if I could but the closest patch of actual land is England and... Well £10 is all I have) –Sealand

Pleasure slave wanted- Feel like making some money working for me? All you have to do is fulfil my wild desires and a maximum of €100 an hour! –France

Waitress wanted- Currently hiring waitresses for Cafe Spain. Willing to pay any kind of currency, pay specified upon hiring. Good pay. –Spain

Become one with mother Russia- Pay: Satisfaction of becoming one. –Russia

"Any luck?" Asked Flying Mint Bunny as she flew over to England.

England shook his head as Tinkerbell sat on his shoulder and read the adverts that England had just been reading. She giggled slightly and then whispered into England's ear.

"You might make a good waitress." She giggled.

"That's a woman's job. It doesn't say anything about waiters." England told her.

"So? I still think you'd make a good girl, or a waitress."

"Don't be ridiculous."

England folded up the paper and then went upstairs to get some sleep.

-End of Flashback-

"Now he's actually contemplating it!" Tinkerbell exclaimed.

"What? Being France's pleasure slave?" Captain Hook asked.

"No!" Tinkerbell hissed. "Being a-"

"Alright now to get this show on the road!" England beamed.

"Uh-oh." Said England's magical friends.

"Flare up and burn it down.
From corner to corner with that hellfire
Don't leave a single trace
Burn down even their souls..."

Several of England's friends gulped as he chanted the eerie song. Flying Mint Bunny even shivered violently and flew into Captain Hook's pocket.

"Flare up and burn it down
Answer my calling right now
Burn down those fools with
A crimson flame..."

Then England's pentagram flashed green, enveloping England in the sea of white light. His magical friends held their breath, praying inwardly for England's safe return.
