Chapter 2: Where is she?
Slovakia looked around the first floor with a piqued interest. She looked through all the rooms and sighed when she went to the next door next to the stairs that led to the 3rd floor. She fumbled around with the doorknob and gave up.
"I wonder why it's locked…" Slovakia murmured. She shrugged her shoulders and traveled downstairs to find Scotland.
When Slovakia reached the first floor she looked around and heard murmuring. She followed the noise and found two men.
"Russia!" She smiled as she ran over to the tall blonde man. She hugged his arm happily and he smiled in response.
"Slovakia." The Russian smiled.
"You're all right." Slovakia grinned.
The man, Russia, wore a khaki military coat and a scarf over his neck. He had green military pants with regular military boots. His hair was a platinum blonde color and he had the most beautiful shade of purple eyes.
"Da. So is Canada." He said, pointing to a timid man next to him.
The man next to him looked at Slovakia very nervously. He had wavy blonde hair and a stray curl. He had on a fuzzy military looking parka. His eyes were blue and he had glasses on his cheeks. He also had a white bear in his arms.
"I'm sorry, Canada!" Slovakia said nervously.
"It's all right." Canada said shyly.
There was a loud crash as a large figure appeared out of nowhere.
"So does anyone else have an extremely bad feeling about what might happen?" Ireland said as they stood in front of the front door.
"Just because America shot his gun?" England retorted.
Ireland ignored the comment and looked around. She tilted her head around the small pool of blood near the door. She went over and looked at it.
"Is everything all right?" England asked.
"Yeah…" Ireland said. She stood up and ran over to them as they ventured towards the kitchen. Ireland waited for them as they decided to explore the library. She looked around and noticed something was off. Ireland held out her palm toward the wall across from her and a silver spear appeared in her hand. She leaned against the wall and kept a watchful eye.
"What're you carrying that for?" England spat as he exited the library and looked at his sister.
"I have a bad feeling about what's going on." Ireland said. "And the hairs on the back of my neck around standing on end." They both looked at her shrugged as they entered the kitchen.
"See! I was right!" A girl called out. Canada looked over and saw his big sister pointing at the creature in front of them with a silver spear. Both the men next to her freaked out at the monster that he, Russia, and Slovakia were facing.
"What the heck is that thing, aru!?" China hollered.
"Don't worry about it, Mr. China." Slovakia called out. "Mr. Russia knows what he's doing!"
"There's something about that statement that makes me feel uneasy…" England frowned as he took out a book. Ireland brandished her spear and stood in front of them. China took out a pair of curved swords and joined Ireland.
"Well, you all took your time." Russia grinned. "As you can see we're busy, so you can leave this all to me, da?"
"No, aru!" China hollered.
"I agree with China." Ireland said. "This thing looks WAY too dangerous for you three to take on by yourselves."
The monster in front of them was HUGE. I mean, there was a memorial or a statue and then there was this thing! How Russia and the others dealt with it was something they really didn't want to know.
"Get out of here, sis!" Canada called over to his sister.
"Yer kidding me, right?!" Ireland puffed. "I'm yer big sister! If England can't beat me, nobody can!" Ireland charged at the monster. She lunged her spear towards its side and felt the attack connect.
"Gotchya." Ireland smirked as she quickly pulled away from the monster. Before she could do anything, she felt a strong force pick her up. She struggled as she felt her feet rise into the air.
"Oi! Put me down!" She hollered as she held onto her spear. The monster flung her towards the wall. Ireland quickly reacted and bounced off the wall and onto the floor. She charged for a spell and attacked the creature the same time Russia did.
"Not much damage…" She frowned as she retrieved her spear.
"Not much at all…" Russia said darkly. Ireland and Russia attacked the creature once more and were joined by another force. They both watched as the monster withdrew its attack. China stood by their side and readied himself for another attack.
As they attacked, Canada and Slovakia tried to heal them with the few spells they knew with England's help. The attacks became ineffective as their battle dragged on. Ireland frowned as she stood away from the pair and the monster. China and Russia eventually got that she wasn't fighting back and stayed their distance.
"What's wrong, aru?" China asked.
"We can't harm the damn thing!" Ireland frowned. The monster looked like it was charging for an attack. Ireland and England quickly chanted a spell and a force field hovered over them as a bright light appeared.
"Just in time…"Ireland panted.
"Bloody hell is that thing?" England said through his breaths.
They all backed away from the creature. The monster looked over at England and walked towards him. Ireland's eyes narrowed and she quickly raced over to him. Something fast flew towards the monster and stuck it. A white blur became recognizable as he stood next the Russia and the others.
"Stay away from my friends." The man in white demanded.
"J-japan!" China cried out.
"Great to see ya, can we kill this thing before we get reacquainted?" Ireland jeered.
Japan nodded and helped them with their assault. The battle dragged on like it did last time and but with Japan's help, they managed to kill the monster. Ireland and China used a combined attack on the creature to finish it off.
"That's more like it." Ireland grinned as she put away her spear. "Are you okay, England?" Ireland asked as she helped him up.
"Are you bloody insane?" England retorted. "I should be asking you if you're all right!"
"I'm doing just fine!" Ireland growled.
"And they're doing it again…" China sighed. Japan shook his head and looked around.
"Are you guys all right?" He asked.
"Yeah, we should all be accounted for." Canada grinned.
"What was that thing, aru?" China asked.
"You're kidding." Japan said astonished. "You guys have fought that monster before, right?"
"You must be crazy." Ireland said. "This is the first time I've seen it."
"Same here." England nodded.
"How strange…" Japan murmured. "You all got here first."
"Careful with the term "you all"," Ireland warned, "Slovakia, Scotty and I just got here."
"Are you kidding me?" England frowned. "You got here before us!"
"Oh come on, you bloody liar." Ireland scowled. "America sent me a text message from your bloody phone to meet you here. We waited outside and assumed that you all ran in."
"Ireland's right, aru." China said. "We haven't been here for even an hour."
"He's right, da." Russia said. "China sent Japan a text message and you replied from somewhere around here."
"All right, blokes," Ireland sighed, "can we go before my head explodes?"
"I agree with Ireland." Canada nodded.
"There's a room on the second floor that we've been using as a base." Japan said.
"Let's go, aru." China smiled. Everyone followed Japan out of the kitchen and Ireland stayed behind to watch the rear. Ireland watched as England and China ran off with Russia behind them. She looked around as Canada waited for her.
"Are you okay, Ireland?" Canada asked.
"Where's Slovakia?" Ireland asked. Canada looked around.
"She was right next to me a little while ago…" Canada murmured.
"I know this is bad, but we don't have much to do besides to leave…" Ireland frowned. Both Ireland and Canada reluctantly followed the others as they wondered where Slovakia went.
