"Come on, Ita-chan, West is mean to everyone please stop crying." Gilbert was sitting with him on the couch. Since coming out the forest Feliciano hadn't stopped crying so the had no choice but to end training early. Of course he was an expert of crocodile tears by now. Ludwig was in the kitchen making him pasta to try and stop him from crying. Feliciano looked at Gilbert as cute as he could manage and stopped crying his fake tears. The Prussian kissed his forehead smiling and playing with his hair. The snow was starting to thaw.

"Hey, Ludwig." It was four in the morning when Feliciano walked into the Germans room. Ludwig smiled at him tired.

"Yes Feli?" He was to tired to be grumpy. A gun was pressed against his temple.

"You will do as I say, wont you Ludwig? You will help me take over this puny world and all it's weak people." Ludwig looked at the Italian and nodded. Feliciano smiled an wicked little smile far different from his usual idiotic smile and kissed the German, taking the gun away from the blonde's temple. It felt good to know he didn't have to kill Ludwig after all. Gilbert had said 'Yes' straight away so he wouldn't have to kill him either. If only the rest would give in so easily, though he had planned everything carefully so in the end they would join one way or another. Still it was to easy to attack them yet. He ended up climbing in beside Ludwig instead of walking back to his or Gilbert's room. Maybe this would all go perfectly for him. He could end up living happily with Gilbert and Ludwig and being king of the world. First attack started at 7am.

Planes were filling the skies and bombs fell down on Japan. Kiku could hear them screaming for help, children were crying as the explosions went on. Yet Kiku was helpless, a bomb had hit the phone and power lines. He couldn't call anyone for help, it was impossible to relax while his people died outside. Painting the city red with their blood, yet no one knew who it was attacking. Until there was a cheery knock at Kiku's door. The Japanese man picked up his sword and approached cautiously. It was just Feliciano, Ludwig and Gilbert.

"Quick get inside." Kiku quickly brought them in and locked the door behind them. Thankfully it wasn't the enemy coming to get him, he thought before two guns were pressed to his head.

"Thank you, Kiku, good to know you can co-operate with us. Sorry but we had to attack otherwise we would never get you to surrender." The Italian smiled evilly, his voice was deeper than usual. He kneeled down to look Kiku in the eyes. "Can you hear it Kiku, children out there will die along with the other people unless you surrender and join us." Feliciano grinned as he heard a girl die just outside Kiku's house. The Japanese man wanted to spit in the man's face. This was not the Feliciano Vargas he knew at all.

"Never." The Japanese man said stubbornly. Ludwig and Gilbert pushed the guns closer to his head.

"Shame. I liked you, Kiku but if you must choose your own pride over your people and Arthur, looks like you will have to die." Feliciano stared out the window smiling as the people died knowing he had caught the man's attention. Kiku looked at the window hearing a voice he recognised outside among the screaming.

"…Fine, I surrender." Inside him the Japanese man was screaming at himself not to give up but his voice betrayed him. The guns were removed from Kiku's head and the Italian smiled at him.

"Much better. Ludwig tell them the Japanese have surrendered, drop the last of the bombs before we leave."
