A/N: Alright, so today, be prepared for a lot of like, details and stuff. I'm going to explain how each state looks but like just their hair color and what they wore to the meeting. I like detail, is that so wrong?

Chapter Two

The meeting had begun. All the states sat in chairs with their numbers on it. Only number 50 was vacant.

"Alright dudes and dudettes, let's start this meeting with the pledge." They all stood, even Japan, and said the pledge. Well, Japan didn't say the pledge; he just stood to show respect and whatever.

"… with liberty and justice for all! Okay, today's topic, the not so recent oil spills! Who's up?" America looked around at the states. "Alright, Louisiana, wait! I didn't introduce everyone to Japan!"

America face palmed and motioned for Japan to stand up. "That is alright, America-san-"

"No, no, no, you deserve the right to know everyone! Let's start with Delaware, the first state, then Pennsylvania, the second state." A girl with short light brown hair that was in pigtails waved. She wore a white blouse and blue skirt.

"Then came New Jersey," A short, pudgy man with reddish-brown hair nodded. He had red suspenders and black pants with a white button down shirt. He was also wearing one of those old timey caps. "and this is Georgia, are those new pearls?" but the blond state didn't get to answer because America was on to the next one.

"Connecticut," they fist bumped and Japan saw he had a bandage around his head, "Massachusetts," A boy with messy dark brown hair waved. His feet were up on the table and he was wearing a navy blue sweatshirt and baggy jeans. "This is Maryland," her long golden hair was up in a bun and she wore a black skirt suit. Maryland pushed her glasses up onto her nose a bit more.

"South Carolina," he pointed to a boy with auburn hair in a brown suit. Next to him was a girl with long brown hair in a very formal looking dark blue dress. "Then New Hampshire, and this is Virginia," another girl, this time with long black hair in a loose bun. She was wearing a red jacket and blue pants.

"You already know New York, this is North Carolina," a girl with auburn hair in a side ponytail wearing a brown skirt suit adjusted her pearl necklace and checked her hair. "Rhode Island," a respectably short girl with brown hair in pigtails and glasses waved. She wore a white shirt and black pants. "Oh, and that's Vermont." a teenager who looked like a spoiled rich kid sneered at the two countries. He had blond hair that was smoothed back and wore a red and white checkered sweater vest.

"Anyway, we have Kentucky, and Tennessee," a blond young woman wearing a white pants suit smiled and waved. Next to her was a boy who looked considerably bored with brown hair and a black suit. "This is Ohio, and that is Louisiana, she is one hell of a cook," a woman with dark skin and black hair in a braid down her back smiled warmly, she had on a short sleeved turquoise dress with pockets and a collar. "Thank you America," her voice was soft. She fixed her head band.

"No problemo. This over here is Indiana," a dude with longish brown hair and a race car jacket smiled at the two. "Over here is Mississippi," a boy with skin like an Avocado and short dreadlocks nodded. He wore a gray suit and red tie. The boy next to him had long black hair in a ponytail and wore a white shirt with a loose tie. "That's Illinois, and this is Alabama," a young man who looked like Mississippi but with different hair nodded, he wore a navy blue suit.

"This is Maine," a young woman looked up at them. She had short red hair and was wearing a plain black skirt suit. "That's Missouri," a young man with brown hair in a, um, mullet, nodded at them. His suit was anything less then sophisticated.

"Arkansas," a girl with short, dirty-blond hair and a maroon skirt suit gave them a small smile. "Michigan," a boy with dark brown hair in a black suit adjusted his blue and white trapper hat. "Florida," a surprisingly young looking boy with a Mickey Mouse hat smiled at them. He was sitting next to Louisiana and she kept fixing his tie despite his apparent annoyance.

"That over there is my man Texas," a boy who looked very similar to America nodded. He had brown hair like America's, glasses like America's, and the same stupid smile. He was wearing a white shirt with a sheriff star and a cowboy hat. He played with

"Iowa, she has great potatoes!" Iowa obviously annoyed said, "That's Idaho America…" He patted her head, messing up her neat dirty blond hair that was in a bun. "Whatever! Here is Wisconsin," a girl with long blond hair and a light blue suit nodded sleepily.

"Over we have California," the girl had blond hair that was up in a ponytail and a dark green suit. She smiled. "And that's Minnesota," another blond, this time a boy, but with hair that went to his chin. "Oregon, he's what you would call a 'hipster'," the hipster rolled his eyes and adjusted his hipster glasses and hipster bow tie.

"That would be Kansas, right next to West Virginia," a girl with brown hair and one with black hair smiled. West Virginia wore a blue jacket and red pants. Kansa wore a plain brown dress.

"Next we have Nevada," a young man with dirty blond hair, a white shirt and black blazer. "That over there is Nebraska," America pointed to a girl with brown hair and freckles. "next to her is Colorado," she smiled at them and fixed her dark brown hair and purple blazer.

"That's North and South Dakota," they were two identical boys with black messy hair. "and Montana," the tan state waved a little. His black hair was wavy. "Then Washington and Idaho." Washington didn't smile at them; he just cleaned his glasses on his black turtle neck. Idaho smiled sweetly and blew her brown bangs out of her face.

"Over there is Wyoming and Utah," Wyoming had short brown hair with a few clips. She was next to Utah who had black hair that fell in front of his face. "Oklahoma, that was an average musical," Oklahoma made a face at America, "and New Mexico." The state smiled, he looked very similar to Montana.

"Then the triplets, Arizona, Alaska, and-"Alaska interrupted him. "Hawaii's late." she said. "Right… Well, now we can get on with the meeting!" America went back to his seat and just then the doors burst open. The Secret Service agents that had been stationed around the room instinctively jumped towards the door but when they saw it was just a teenage girl they backed off.

"I'm here!" Hawaii announced. "Took you long enough…" Massachusetts mumbled, but not low enough. "Hey, I was at a luau and forgot okay? My boss came though and we made it to our plane." She was only wearing a pair of shorts and a bikini top under a shear pink sweater.

"Wear is your turtle neck and blazer?" Alaska stood and pulled Arizona up with her. They were both wearing a black blazer and turtle necks. "Sorry, I was rushing!"

The state sat down and the meeting officially begun. Louisiana was first; she had a whole speech prepared on oil spills and some other stuff. In the middle of the speech, Vermont raised his hand. "Yes Vermont?" Louisiana asked.

He stood and turned to America. "New York is listening to her iPod." Everyone turned to the girl. Massachusetts, who was sitting next to her, nudged NY in the elbow. She opened her eyes and pulled out the head phones. "Yes?"

The states exploded with laughter. I guess they found this action funny. Well, it more the look on Vermont's face when she didn't get in trouble. "What was it this time NY? More of those 80's bands you love so much?" NJ laughed.

"Fall Out Boy." she replied simply. "Sorry Lou." NY said to Louisiana who waved it off. She continued with a smile on her face and a few other states joined in. Japan was enjoying himself. At one point, he was asked his opinion on Immigration in the U.S. Of course, he wasn't too familiar with the topic, but lately he had watched enough American news to have an opinion.

After the meeting, some of the states personally thanked him for coming. That included Louisiana. "It was a pleasure to have you!" She had said.

"The pleasure was mine Miss Louisiana." Japan bowed.

"Please, call me Jemima." they said goodbye and Japan was escorted outside by America. "That was awesome! They really liked you." America was very pleased with himself.

"What do think about brining them to the meeting tomorrow in London?"

Japan was speechless. He was imagining each countries reaction to the states. Some of them weren't so good…

"I think that is a great idea." he said, to spare the American's feelings. "Awesome! Well, see you then!" America ran off. Japan waited for his car to bring him to the airport when he saw Hawaii. She looked very cold. He walked over to her, "Hello Miss Hawaii." She smiled but when she saw who it was, it vanished.

"Hello Japan."

"How are you?" he knew she looked familiar and he defiantly knew the name. What was it?

"I have been better. Can I ask you something?" She turned to him a bit.

"Anything at all."

"Do you- do you know, how many years it has been?" she asked him, a sad look in her eyes.

"Since what?" he slowly remembered. "This year will make it 72 since you hurt us. But at the time, you thought it was only America you hurt. How wrong you had been. It was me, I was hurt."

"December 8, 1941." Japan remembered. "It was December 7 here though." Hawaii told him. "I am sorry for what happened 72 years ago. I hope you can forgive me." he bowed and she stared at the ground.

"I have healed; still, I didn't expect to see you ever again. I was shocked." she shivered. "You seem cold, here," Japan gave her his jacket. "Oh, you don't have to do that." she tried to resist, but gave up. His jacket was super warm!

They stood in silence until a white car rolled over. "This is me." Hawaii took off the jacket and handed it to Japan. "Take it, I will see you tomorrow." he opened the door for her, and the confused state went inside.

"Wait, tom-" but the door closed and the car started driving…

A/N: That was a lot… It took me like, three days to write this cause I'm super lazy. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it like I did writing it… So, see ya next time!
