Hello and welcome to chapter two for 'Of Cats and Dogs"! Thank you for reading the first chapter and please enjoy th second!^^
Germany never remembered falling asleep. The last thing he remembered was leaving the meeting with Italy and feeling his remaining strength start to leave his body.
Now he was trying to wake up but something felt different. He could feel his arms and legs and could tell that he was on his side but he could also feel his hair covering his entire body and something that was attached to his spine.
Finally opening his eyes Germany found that he was in a box and that he was surrounded by dogs. Finding the strength to sit up he was shocked to find that he was also a dog not only a dog but a puppy.
As he sat there trying to figure out what the hell had happened, the other three puppies stirred from their slumber and looked around. Each of the puppies looked like one of the Nations that had died from the sickness
"Spain, America, Turkey?" he asked as the others looked at him
"Germany?" Spain asked as the blonde puppy nodded
"Dude what happened and why are we Puppies?!" America demanded
"The last thing I remember was being sick with that illness that killed our human half and telling Greece that he would always be like a brother to me and to watch over Japan." Turkey spoke up
"Ja and then Japan and China died shortly after you did. A few months later Spain you, America, and England also died." Germany told them
"Weren't you and Italy the only sick ones left? If so and if you're here with us then that must mean that you died." Spain said sadly as their deaths sunk in.
"Wait if we're dead then is this heaven?" America asked
"If so this heaven sucks." Turkey huffed
"Don't think this is heaven guys. The place outside the box looks too much like the alleyway near the United Nations headquarters." Spain told them as he balanced on his hind legs and looked over the edge of the box
"So what we were reincarnated?" Germany asked
"Who knows dude but I'm starving!" America whined
"So am I but right now we should find someplace else to stay. I don't feel safe in this box and I really want to know why we ended up like this." Turkey stated as the others agreed with him.
Once they had all gotten out of the box the four puppies walked to the front of the alleyway and noticed that Spain had been right and that they were across the street from the World conference meeting place.
Making sure that there were no cars the puppies ran across the street and through the open doors of the conference building
"Idiots! Why leave the door open to a place like this?!" Germany growled
"Who cares at least we were able to get in!" America told him as the four dogs walked around in search of food.
In another alleyway Italy was enjoying his siesta when someone woke him up
"~Ve Germany I don't want to go train today can't we just cuddle instead?" he asked without opening his eyes
"Like Bloody hell I want to know what you and Germany do in the bedroom!" he head an angry sounding British accent yell
"England what are you doing in Germany's bedroom?" Italy asked as he sat up and yawned
"Ah Italy-kun you should fully wake up." He heard Japan tell him as he finally opened his eyes. When he did he was met by three kittens.
"~Ve where are Japan and England? I heard them but all I see are kitties." Italy said perplexed
"You imbecile we are the cats and you're one too." The white and orange kitten with bushy eyebrows told him in England's voice
"Oh he's not going to understand aru." The brown kitty with the ponytail told the first one sounding exactly like China
"Italy-kun do you understand what England-san is saying?" a black and white bobtail asked as Italy looked down at himself. What he found was the body of a tan cat with darker brown spots
"I'm so confused! The last thing I remember is watching Germany stop breathing and then falling asleep on his chest like I always do!" Italy cried making the other three feel bad for making him cry.
"We all remember our last moments before that sickness claimed us but right now we can't just sit around feeling sorry for ourselves." England told them
"England's right aru!" China agreed
"Hai I took a look around earlier and the World conference building is just three buildings down from here." Japan offered as the other three decided to follow him.
It didn't take long for the four cats to make it inside the meeting hall but what they didn't expect was to find four dogs in the middle of a conversation
"Ok so Turkey and America you two should go look for food while Spain and I try to find out what's been going on since we died." a pale blonde dog with icy blue eyes to the other three in a thick German accent.
"~Ve! Germany!" Italy meowed as he ran up to the blonde dog
"Italy?" the dog asked hopefully
"Si I'm a cat now! But I don't know why." The tan kitten told the puppy
"Wow looks like everyone's here. Or at least the ones that had the sickness. Turkey commented
"Did you really have to remind us Turkey-san?" Japan asked
"Well now that we're all together we should try to find out not only why we ended up like this but also what's going on in the world now that we're dead." England told them as they broke up into groups of two;
Italy and Germany,
America and England,
China and Spain,
and Japan and Turkey.
Each group took a different part of the meeting room and quickly found at least an answer to what had happened since they died. Italy and Germany had found an abandoned newspaper
"Hey guys according to the date on this paper we've been dead for twenty years!" Germany called out as he read the paper
"Twenty years?!" the other seven repeated "Ja see." He replied showing them the date on the front page. England looked like he wanted to say something but just as he opened his mouth France, Canada, Prussia, Russia, Greece, and Romano walked in and saw the huddled animals before they had a chance to hide.
