(I DO NOT OWN HETALIA OR LOLLIDICTADOR'S MANUALS. I used TheSingingBard and Blarney-Imp's suggestions for this chapter. Thank you, both of you)

I read the manuals. I got … England and Italy. "Hey Switzerland" I said. "Ya?" he asked. "Can you get my computer? I need to go to the kitchen. The British are here as well as Italy" I said. Switzerland sighed. "At least we didn't get a pervert like France or someone creepy like Russia" he said. "True, true" I said.

He went to my room and got my computer. I went into the kitchen and started making pasta.

All of a sudden, there was a whimper coming from inside one of the boxes. I walked up to the one that made the noise. "Hello?" I asked. 'Ve~ is someone out there? Can you let me out of the box?" the voice said. I opened the lid. I saw immediately tackled by someone. Their grip on me was super tight. "Ve~ that you from saving me from that dark scary box!" the person said.

I recognized the voice, it was Italy. "Your…welcome….can you….let go…of me….there is….pasta in….the kitchen" I said. "PASTAA!" he called and ran towards the kitchen.

Switzerland came down. "Italy is awake" he said. I nodded and took my laptop. I played "Saving Grace" and all of a sudden there was humming that came from the box. I opened it.

England was there. I smiled. "Hello there, I am Rosalinda Carlton but everyone calls me Rose or Rosie" I said and offered my hand out to him to shake. He smiled and shook my hand. Then he walked out of his box. "My name is Arthur Kirkland" he said. I walked over to Italy. "I forgot to introduce myself to you Feliciano, my name is Rosalinda Carlton but you can call me Rose or Rosie. England is here too so after you finish, come with Arthur and myself to show you your rooms" I said.

Italy nodded and continued eating. When he was done with his food, he hid behind me the whole time we were walking with England. They chose their rooms and everyone was hanging out. Feli was still hiding behind me. "Feliciano, don't worry. I am not going to attack you or anything. That war isn't in action here" England said and drank his tea. "Yay!" Feli said and moved from hiding behind me to sitting next to me.

"Well, I have to say something. I will be at work during the week in the afternoon after school until 6:30. So, while I am at school and work, don't destroy anything please. I do have a few places you guys can go to while I am out" I said. "Oh really? Where would that be?" England asked. I pulled out a piece of paper and drew a mini map.

"Okay, for Switzerland, there is a shooting range in town. Town isn't far at all, it is about a 5 minute walk through a scenic trail. Also in town there is an art studio for Italy and a library that England may like" I said. "Ah, thank you for thinking of us" Feli said. "No problem, my school is down the road from main street in town and my job is on main street" I said and smiled. "Just out of curiosity, where do you work?" England asked. "I work at a café" I said and smiled. "It is good that you have a job" Switzerland said. I smiled.

You see, I am single and no way any of the guys in the show would like me. They are all so perfect. I am as imperfect as the come. I sighed. "Is something wrong?" England asked. "No, everything is fine just… thinking" I said. "Ve~ I am hungry" Feli said. "I will go cook something!" England said and ran off into the kitchen ."Uh oh" Switzerland said. I laughed.

20 minutes later, England came back with weird looking biscuit thing. "Here try some" he said. Italy was hiding behind me. I took one and ate it. "Well?" England asked. I smiled. "It is good. Can I put some jam on it?" I asked. He was brimming with happiness and nodded. I walked over to the pantry and looked for some jam. I spotted some Swiss preserves on the top shelf. I tried reaching for it on my tippy toes. Ugh, I was just a centimeter short. Italy walked over a got it for me. "Thank you Feli!" I said happily and gave him a hug. I walked over and put some of the preserves on the biscuit thing. I took a bite. "Yummy!" I said. England was super happy. "You can eat that stuff?" Switzerland asked. I smiled. "It isn't that bad" I said. He raised his eyebrow and grabbed a biscuit and put preserves on it. He took a bite. "It's okay" he said.

I looked at the time. It was 6:00 pm. "Hey, I am going to make dinner for you guys and I have to head out" I said and got up and went to the kitchen. I tied an apron around my waist. "Where are you going?" Switzerland asked as he leaned against the door. "Umm…" I said nervously. I ran my fingers through my hair. "I can't really say" I said. "Why?" he asked getting a little angry. I finished the food. "Secret" I said and handed out the food. "Tell me" he said angrily. "Bye" I said. "You aren't eating?" Feli asked. I smiled. "I will later" I said and grabbed a Tupperware from the fridge, the package from the closet, my roller skates and my skating stuff then put them all in a bag. "Bye" I said and left.

"That was close" I sighed. I got on my bike and went to the abandoned roller rink.

I knocked on the door. "HEY CHARLIE! I AM HERE TO PRACTICE!" I called. My familiar college friend stepped out. "Hey, look who it is! The Silver Bullet herself is here!" he said. I punched him in the arm. "You know I don't do that anymore" I said. "Then why are you here?" he asked. "I need to clear my head" I said. "I have a better way to clear your head" he said and leaned in close. I punched him in the gut. "No way Charlie" I said and walked to the rink. "Why not?" he asked. "Did you forget about your girlfriend?" I said as I laced up my skates. "Riiiight" he said. I rolled my eyes. I put on my helmet and pads. "Why can't you do your paintings instead?" he asked. "I have roommates now" I said. "I didn't know you were looking for roommates" he said. I looked at him. "I wasn't, they kinda just came" I said. "Auntie?" he asked. I nodded. "Ah" he said.

I got in my starting position. "Blow the whistle" I said. He nodded. "Welcome all, we are about to watch the sole star, the girl faster than a speeding train, the one the only-"he started. "Cut it out Charlie just blow the dumb whistle" I said annoyed. "You are no fun" he said and pouted. I glared at him. "Fine, fine" he said and put his hands up. He blew the whistle. I raced forwards.

First, I sped forward to get rid of the feeling that even though he is technically an anime character, I will never be good enough for any of the guys from Hetalia. Next, school. They make fun of me. They make me hate myself. They make me not want to go on. I hate them all so much. The only people who get me are my friends. Then, I remembered how awesome it was to be apart of the roller derby. The fans, the crowds, the thrill and the parties. But, the memory of how Lola got hurt, just so we could win and now ….she can't even walk anymore. It is my fault… entirely my fault. I sped up even more. I was getting out all my anger, regret, sadness and frustration. When I got everything out, I slowed down. Then, I just did a little spin. I walked over to my stuff. I undid my skates.

Charlie walked over to me and sat in front of me. He just stared at me. I looked up. "What?" I asked. "Your speed" he said. "What about it?" I asked. "You have gotten faster. So, what's up? You only go that fast unless you have been training for awhile or something's up" he said. "Nothing is wrong. I just have a lot on my mind lately" I said. "Are you sure?" he asked. "Yes" I said. "But, you should join a team again. They need someone like you…" he started. "I am not coming back Charlie. Ever since what happened to Lola… I just can't" I said. "It wasn't your fault" he said. "It was! If I hadn't been so occupied with winning, I would have noticed and she would not have gotten hurt" I said angrily. He stared at me. "I am going" I finally and got up. "Call me if you change your mind" he called after me. I gave him a thumbs up.

I got on my bike a slung my stuff in my bag over my shoulder.

One more stop.

I raced off. To the hospital. No one was one the streets tonight. I got there fast. I went to the gift shop first. "Hey Rosie!" my best friend Star was here. "Hey Star, I need to get some flowers" I said. "Lola?" she asked. "Yes, why else would I be here besides visiting you?" I asked and pulled out my wallet. "Touché" she said and handed me the usual flowers. "See ya" I said and walked to the elevator. "Bye" she called back. I pressed floor number six. The slow ride up was good. I had time to think.

Lola was my friend. Well, she was more than a friend. She is actually my cousin. She pressured me to join the derby. But, then we both got so caught up. I didn't notice that she was anorexic. I didn't notice that she was getting weaker and weaker. One night, it was the championship. She got slammed into the side and she was so weak that she passed out. She is still weak. I don't know how long it's been. The elevator stopped on her floor. I walked to her room.

She was sleeping.

I set the flowers on the table. I pulled out the Tupperware. I opened it and pulled out a slice of cake. Then, I pulled out the package from my bag. It was a gift. I sat by the window and watched her. "Happy Birthday Lolo" I whispered, using her nickname from when we were little.

( 0_0…. Geez, Rosalinda isn't who we thought she was, huh? This was mainly about her. Okay, Done for now. I DO NOT OWN LOLLIDOCTATOR'S MANUALS OR HETALIA!)
