Chapter 3

Romano woke up an hour later, only to find Italy gone. He got up quietly, he didn't want to wake up Julchen who was using him as a pillow. He walked into his kitchen and saw that his fridge was open. " What the hell... " He closed the fridge and went back to the living room to find his friends awake.

Julchen said " Lovi? Whats wrong? " He shook his head and said " Nothing " Egypt said " Your lying... " Romano ignored her. They heard a scratching sound coming from the stairs. They approached the stairs and saw, Italy. He was pale, looked dead, his eyes were completely white, and he had blood in his mouth. Julchen covered her mouth to keep from screaming. America whispered " Dude, I...is he a z...zombie? " Italy turned his head and faced them. Romano said " I...Italy? " The zombie Italy just stared at them. Romano turned to his friends and told them to run.

They did, but Zombie Italy was too fast. He got Egypt, ripping her through out. America yelled " Gupta! " Romano grabbed his arm and said " It's too late, she's dead, so is Italy... " America pulled out his gun and said in a grim voice " Cover her eyes. " He was referring to Julchen. Romano said " Why, bastard? " He said " Do you want her to see me shoot Italy in the head? " Romano fell silent. America made the gun click and pointed it at Zombie Italy who was eating what was left of Egypt. Romano covered Julchen's eyes to keep her from seeing. America fired the gun shooting Zombie Italy in the head.

The house fell silent. Romano sat on the floor head in hands sobbing. Julchen had thrown a blanket over their friend's dead bodies. America said " Dudes? What the hell just happened? " Romano said nothing. Julchen said " What the fuck do you think just happened! Our friends are fucking dead! " America fell silent. Romano said in a shaky voice " I want to know why my brother and Gupta are fucking dead! " Julchen's phone when off, they all fell silent.

She answered it, it was her brother Ludwig. He sounded like he was panicking, he said " Julchen, where are you!? Something bad is happening, I don't know what it is... " She told him where she was then she sighed and said " I...Italy, he's dead... " Germany said nothing. There was a crash on the other end of the phone, a scream, then silence.

Julchen said " L...Ludwig? Ludwig? Ludwig!? " She dropped the phone shaking. Romano hugged her and asked her what happened, she didn't speak. All she could hear was her brother's scream.
