Mettalise's POV
"wh-where am i?" all that was around me was white…. Like clouds almost…. I couldn't see that much, and that was probably due to the fact that it was really foggy around me.
"Denmark…." I faintly heard my name being called…. Something in my mine switched and my body began to move towards it without my consent…. I had no control over my limbs. I couldn't even feel my body, like I was weightless or something. It was really weird… I looked down, and saw me floating, my feet at least an inch above the ground. It was creepy to say the least, like something you'd read about in a fairytale… "Denmark….." I heard my name being called again, this time a bit louder. The person or whatever it was that was calling sounded eerily calm, and almost peaceful with calling my name out. creepy with a capital C.
"Denmark…. Come to me my child…." By now I was turning my head, looking around me at all angles…. No one was around me. All that was there were shadows and mist. "Mettalise baby come to mama~" the voice called creepily sweetly, and I started to get scared; who wouldn't? "W-who's there?" I called back, thinking for some reason maybe that'd get whatever it was to shut up. I heard a soft laugh, and a blinding light appeared in front of me. I shielded my eyes, wincing from the brightness, and looked up when it faded…."m-mama?" I asked softly, feeling my eyes grow large, staring at a beautiful woman; she had long wavy blond hair, and sharp blue eyes. She wore a simple blue Viking dress, and tattered brown boots. She had a sword at her hip, in a case. She nodded her head once, "yes. It is I my dearest." She said, and smiled softly before coming closer to me until she embraced me in a hug. I hugged her back, feeling warmth and comfort sweep over me; it had been so long since I hugged my mother…. I haven't seen her or touched (hugged in this case) her since I was a child… around twelve or so.
She didn't let me go, she held me close to her as if I was a child once more; and I didn't want her to let me go…. I wanted to stay with her, feel love and compassion from someone again…"mama…. I-I missed you.."
"I missed you too my little angel…. I missed you too." she said, and stroked my hair. I guess when I jumped my hair gel got washed off and my hair wasn't straightened anymore… so I guess it looked nice and soft. "why….?" She asked after a while. I blinked, confused, "why what?"
"why did you jump Mettalise? Why?" she asked, sorrow flaring in her crystal blue eyes. I backed away, trembling from the subject already,"i-i-" I couldn't finish my sentence…. i burst out crying hysterically.
"shhhh…. Shhhh my baby…. Shhhh…." I felt my mother's arms surround me again, and she rocked me back and forth slowly.
Scandinavia's POV
Why…. Why did my beautiful, strong daughter do this? Why did she jump…. I knew she was depressed… but I never imagined in a thousand years that the gods would let her jump, let alone that her sisters would let her jump either…. But it appears both groups let me down…. They let Mettalise down…
I still didn't get why either…. She is such a beautiful, strong, brave woman…. She is absolutely talented in many things… she had a good head atop her shoulders…. She wa- is so smart. Smart enough to know what she did was wrong….
I held onto her for a while longer ebfore I pulled back, but kept a grip o her shoulders. I looked down into her eyes, and sighed softly,"mettalise, you have to go back, it isn't your time yet."
"but mama-"
"nej buts young lady. What you did was incredibly wrong and incredibly stupid, im not disappointed in you, but im upset that you did it. Okay? I still love you… but you need to understand that what you did was not fair to your people or your sisters." She glared slightly, starting to get mad…. I knew this would happen if I said this.
Mettalise's POV
I glared at my mother; how could she say that to me?! Im the one being bullied and verbally abused by my fucking so called sisters! They didn't give a flying fuck about me and they never have! And as for my people, they didn't even care of my existence…. No one ever has! I pulled myself out of her grip, and got a defensive look on my face, "I'll have you know, mother, that I absolutely know I made the right decision! I am not loved by those bitches at all! Mom, they've been bullying and verbally abusing me for so many centuries! And im not loved by any other nations either, no one cares! No one even cared I jumped! Mom, I've been so tired of the constant taunts and remarks for so long… I couldn't take the pain any longer, and I decided to do what was best for everyone. So don't you even DAREtell me what I did was stupid! I wanted to do it, so I did." My voice had gotten louder and louder as I went on, and by the tie I stopped, I was yelling and crying…. And managed to get the attention of all the ancient/dead nations… I shut up instantly, my face pale(well paler than ebfore at least) and I felt myself tremble, and more tears went down my cheeks, "i-I don't know what got into me i-I'm sorry mor…" I whispered softly, and I felt my mom's arms wrap around me again, and she held me close, rocking me softly. I heard someone approach, and felt another set of arms go around me, this set from behind, and I heard some soft, but low humming. I kinda reconized it, but barely…. It took me a while to put pieces together and realize that my father was hugging me as well now.
"shhhh…..dont cry …don't cry…." He whispered softly, and soon both of my parents pulled away once I had calmed down. They exchanged a look before my father offered me his hand. I looked at it for a bit before I took it, and my mom took the other, and they started leading me to a golden bridge that glowed in the the very beginning of it there was a goldish white shimmering veil that was translucent. I looked at both of them curiously and a eyebrow raised.
"this is the way back home. You must go back and get better. We'll be waiting here when it is your time." my dad said bluntly, and he bent down to place a kiss on the top of my head, and so did my mother, but she kissed my forehead. "your father is right. We'll be here when it is your actual time to come back, okay Mettalise?" I nodded slowly, giving in. they both nodded curtly, and hugged me one last time before stepping back so I could step through the barrier. I was about to take a step forward ebfore I stopped, turned around, and ran back to them, throwing my arms around them, hugging them. "i-I don't want to go, I don't want to leave you!" I sniffled, and they exchanged another look, and gently pried me off. "please, go. Before its too late." They whispered; I could tell it was hard for them to make me go, but they had too… I nodded softly, and started to walk through the barrier, slowly starting to make my way back to life and in my body.
Brigitte's POV
I was in the hospital room with the other Nordics and several of the other nations; everyone was devastated that Denmark was "dead" and even more upset that she committed suicide… we all felt to blame, and it was obvious that several of us felt even more guilty than the others because several of us were just sitting there staring at her body with such agony and grief it was unbearable…Germany and Austria had to leave the room after bursting into hysterical sobbing, and Spain, France, Prussia, Russia, and Norway had to follow them to join in on hysterical crying (yes, Norway was In fact sobbing her heart out). the air around us felt cold and empty….. truth be told, everyone adored Denmark for her personality, bright smile, and happy shimmering eyes…. She always could break up a conflict and get everyone laughing and smiling again, and she always just kinda lit up the room when she came in…. she was the glue that kept everyone together I suppose…. We were in the room until about midnight, when I say we, I mean every nation; no one left the room…. No one wanted to leave…
Beep…Beep…Beep
The heart monitor was very slow and very weak…. The doctors had told us that Mettalise was in a coma…. But the thing that kept us all somewhat at hope was the heartbeat…. It made us hope that metta would live after all…perhaps she would be okay after all.
