Worth of Words; Chapter 2: Raise Your Head and Rise From the Ash's! I want to see your smile again
Scene Stop!
V appears suddenly,
"Sorry about that folks!" the green haired girl apologized with a happy grin on her face, "For those of you who don't know may names Vi-real! But people call me V for short, and I'm…" she truck a pose, "The hero!"
"Anyway let's bring you up to date, I came to visit my super awesome hero friend Alfred Jones, who had been MIA and not calling or texting me! So anyway I found his brother Matthew or Mattie for short he's cute!" she giggled
"Anyway, I found out that Alfred, who I later found out is the representation of the U.S.A, freaky right, moving on…I found out he was attacked and basically a half dead zombie and made it my mission to bring his attackers to justice!"
"I later found myself fighting and kicking their asses! Because the hero always wins! I still can't believe I got to fight countries, well representations, same deal" she smiled triumphantly
"Anyway on with the show!" she said flashing a double peace sign, "V is for victory!"
Scene Play!
Matthew smiled as she watched as V and his brother talked, Alfred was improving over the past weeks. He was eating and acting more like himself, which was a big relief to Matthew. It was a complete turnaround right after lunch, he and V had went to the hospital and found Alfred…laughing. At first they were bewildered and shocked to find his brother actually laughing, until they found out that Alfred had been watching the television when suddenly news broadcast came on, someone from the hotel where they had had their meetings at heard the ruckus V had made when she was fighting the other countries. Ambulances were lined down the streets as paramedics took out the semi-conscious men and rushed them to the hospital.
Alfred continued to laugh at the coverage, apparently seeing the others beaten, bloodied, and bruised created a spark in the blond nation.
"Hey Alfie!" V said as the blond looked at the green haired girl, "I bet I can eat more hamburgers then you!" she said
"You're on!" Alfred said without hesitation on the other line
"Brother don't you think you should take it slow, you only been out of the hospital for a few days" Matthew said taking the phone from V. Alfred was still on bed rest until he got his strength back, plus the doctors wanted to make sure he was healthy.
"Don't worry bro I got this!" he said smiling as he lay in his bed at home, "But seriously bro I'm just happy to be out of that hospital and back in my own crib. Seriously I couldn't take anymore hospital food" he laughed, but still made a grimace.
"Well I hope you get well soon brother and we'll see you after the meeting" he said, currently on their way to the world meeting
"Yeah get well soon Alfie!" V called from the side causing another laugh from the blond, "Don't worry I'll be back in no time, good luck. Oh! And bring some McDonalds after the meeting! I'm serious I need some burgers like asap!"
"Right…well we'll see you after the meeting, bye" he said before hanging up the phone.
"Alright, let's hurry and get to the meeting" he said as V smiled and gave a thumb up, "Right!"
In the meeting room, nations were taking their seats, though most of the major nations were bandaged, considering they healed rather quickly the wounds were minimal to say the least.
Suddenly the room became quite as the door opened and all eyes turned to see Matthew and V. Eyes watched as the two took their seats. Matthew sat in his regular seats as V sat next to him. Glances surrounded them, though most were on V for obvious reasons.
'Great she's probably come to finish the job' was what most were thinking along those lines.
"Alright let's get begin the meeting" Germany said clearing his throat calling the meeting to order, "Right…now then…let's begin"
"Hold on west!" not even a minute into the meeting, Prussia was raising from his seat abruptly, "What is it bruder?" the German asked
The albino male pointed an accusing finger at the green haired girl, "Why is that hündin here!" he yelled, "She viciously assaulted us and damaged the awesome Prussia's face!" he yelled
"Now just a moment…"
"Oui I have to agree with Gilbert, she should not be here" Francis said, small patches on his face and sporting a black eye. Soon the room filled with murmurs and looks from the other nations.
"Now wait just one moment!" Canada said as all eyes turned on the Canadian nations, "Your all being to brash, this is supposed to be a world meeting" he said
"Well of course you would defend her; she didn't beat you bloody and unconscious with that damn bloody guitar!" England yelled, gaze around his forehead and a patch on his cheek.
"He's got a point Matthew" Francis said sporting a black eye and a few band-aids on his face
"Are you joking we have fights in this room all the time" Matthew said his voice higher than his regular higher tone.
"That may be true but they were between nations and countries" Austria piped in next him Hungry nodded, "Truth, I do believe she went overboard"
"How can you of all people say that Elizabeta? I mean for maple sakes you beat Prussia daily with a frying pan?"
"Well that's because Prussia is annoying"
"Hey!" the man yelled obviously offended
"Mund halten Sie verdammtes Arschloch!", V suddenly yelled causing a few wide eyes in the room, "V? You can speak German?" Matthew said with much surprise
"Huh? Yeah, I've decided to brush up on my world languages so I wouldn't miss anything during the meetings. Anyway I'm will not sit here and be insulted!" she said banging her fists on the table glancing at the albino known as Prussia.
"Yeah and I won't sit here and not know what's going on, as a hero…"
"Oh no you don't!", England said banging his hand, that wasn't in a cast, on the table, "Don't for one bloody second think that you're the damn hero!" the Englishman yelled,
"Now hold on this is supposed to be a civil meeting!" Matthew said though their meetings were never really that organized because they always had to stop because of a fight or disagreement broke out.
"It is, but she has got to go" Francis said rubbing his cheek, "My poor bones can't stand looking at her, she is a brute"
"te faire foutre!" she yelled causing the French nation to gasp, "ma parole! She just insulted me in my own language!"
"I'll tear out your tongue and beat you with it!" Francis cringed
Matthew rolled his eyes, he couldn't believe how they were acting, nations, it was laughable, and they were more like children who were angry because they got beaten at their own game.
"Like hell!" V said banging her fist again, "I am not leaving Mattie alone, especially with any of you" she said emphasizing her full distrust of the others, "Don't think I'm not done with you"
"Don't be such a baby" a cold voice said, looking over eyes saw a female with long silvery hair and a dark blue dress with a bow.
"Um who is she?" V whispered to Matthew, "That's Belarus, Russia's little sister" he added as V made an 'o' shape
"I do not believe my big brother Russia was defeated by such a scrawny little worm like you" her voice dripped with ice as she glared daggers at the girl, V made a small scoff before looking her directly in the eye, they were now only mere feet from each other. The tension was high, the sir felt thick as the electricity of rivalry surged between the two,
"You want to go toe-to-toe with me" (Korra reference. Ha!) V eyes never left hers
"Bring it you green haired bitch" she growled back
"Oh I'll bring it and I'll even give you the first punch!" she growled, "Anyone who condones what these bastards did deserve to get back handed!"
"That is enough you two!" the two looked over to see Germany standing, "I want you both to take your seats and let's get this meeting over and done with!" he said sternly and the two took their seats, "Now then let's get down to business and no more interruptions!" he warned as the others nodded and continued with the meeting.
"Alright, let's begin again. Is there any new business?" he said and suddenly a few hands raised, "Before this begins let me reiterate that is better have nothing to do with the girl" he tensed and a lot of hand's went down,
"I have some news!" V said raising her hands
"Now hold on I object!" Arthur said
"Overruled!" V said
"Hey I'm running this meeting!" Germany yelled
"I agree with potato bastard the bitch has no say" a man who looked exactly like Italy said, "Calm down big brother Romano" Italy tried to calm his brother down
"As rude is he is, I must agree with Romano, you can't talk at a nations meeting" the German nation said as V stood from here seat
"Well it's funny you should mention it because as off today I am a nation!" she said putting her hand on her hips as gasps filled the room,
"You cannot be serious!" Arthur yelled
"Nope this is coming down from the big guys themselves, plus all the world leaders signed off on it" she said, "As of now I am Alfred's a.k.a America's substitute, but still just as awesome hero!" she declared, "Kinda like when Superman took over for Batman, but more awesome-er !"
"But…but…"
"So ta-dow how do you like me now!" she exclaimed "Plus the leaders thought it would be best since the whole 'thing' that happened at Russia's house" she said looking over at Russia before taking her seat
"Aiya I don't care who is in charge! Let's just get this damn meeting done and over with!" Yao yelled annoyed by everyone talking over the other, he was currently bandaged and gazed on his arms, his neck, and parts of his face.
"Right and as your new awesome leader this meeting going to go smoothly, just follow my awesome hero voice and everything cool!" she declared, it was like dealing with a female America, "And if you have any complaints you can take it up with my complaint department" she said pulling out her guitar hearing a series of gulps at the girls instrument, "All right let's start the meeting!" she smiled after taking the gavel from Germany who gave a reluctant groan as the meeting was taken over by the green haired female.
After the mind numbing meeting all the nations, save for Matthew quickly left for their own homes.
"Well that went well" V said
"Though I think you may have raised a few eyebrows with your super satellite proposal" he said earning a laugh from the two, "Yeah proposal…so what do we do next?"
"Um excuse me?" looking back they saw someone entering the room, "Italy?" it was Feliciano. The timid Italian was holding a basket of some sort, "Um…I wanted to give these too you" he said
"Huh?" opening the basket he was met with the sight of small little red fruits, "Tomatoes?"
"Yeah, I wanted…I mean I heard Mr. America was out of the hospital and wanted to give them to him. I picked them myself" he said as V and Matthew looked at the Italian man.
"Why are you giving us this?"
"I…well…I'm sorry" he bowed his head small whimpers escaping his lips, "I feel horrible…no terrible about what happened to America. I…I was there and I couldn't do anything to help, please forgive me for being so pathetic!" he cried tears spilling from his eyes onto the floor. Suddenly he looked up as something was placed on his shoulders, looking over he saw it was Matthew
"It's okay Feliciano" he said with a small voice, "Yeah cheer up Italy!" V said
"But…"
"Feliciano it took a lot of courage to do what you did, thank you" Matthew gave a small smile
"So…is Canada still angry at me?" he said eyes down casting, Matthew shook his head
"No, to tell you the truth I wasn't really angry with you. Alfred said that you had nothing to do with it"
"But…I still could have helped…"
"Don't worry about it Italy" he said as a smile came on the males face tears still streaming down his face, "Graci!" he repeated as Matthew and V smiled
"Hello?" looking up at the door suddenly saw Japan entering the room, "Japan?"
"Kiku?"
"Forgive me for intruding" he said politely with a bow, "I just wanted…I mean, I wish to apologize" he said
"I know it may not mean much, but I have been feeling despair in the pits of my soul for what happened to Mr. America" he bowed clasping his hands together, "Please accept my deepest apologies, my actions were disgusting and unforgivable. I don't expect either you or Mr. America to ever forgive me, just please let him know I am deeply sorry" he said tears straining his eyes as he continued to apologize over and over again.
"Oh, (sniff)" V wiped tears from her eyes,
"Um…Kiku that took a lot of courage to admit and while I'm still upset, you seem to be deeply regretful…" Matthew said patting the others on the shoulder.
"Hey I got an idea, since we're all at a cease fire for the moment, let's go visit Alfred and cheer him up!" V declared
"Are you sure…we don't want to be where we're not wanted" Kiku said knowing the American would probably not be too happy being in the same room as his attackers.
"Don't worry Alfred's doing a lot better! He'll be ecstatic to see some new faces!" V said with much energy, "Alright troops let's move out!" she said as she pulled all three males with her.
To be continued….someday…
