Chapter 4

Northern Ireland couldn't concentrate in organizing the papers that England ask him to prepare few days ago and was very curious after Scotland came to ask if England ever visited his place. When he said "No", Scotland gave a saddened sigh which intrigued Northern Ireland's inquisitiveness for it was VERY rare for Scotland to look for England and it seems like he was worried or anxious about him or something. Before Northern Ireland could ask about it, Scotland thanked him, waving his hand while showing his back to him, and left, nation-hopping.

Northern Ireland paced back and forth in his room, impatient. "Did something happen to England?" he thought, looking pensive. He looked at his clock above the door frame of his study room. There was still time for him to finish his given task, he thought. He sat on the nearby sofa and crossed his arms and legs, thinking what to do. His curiosity won't go away easily and he knew that very well. Finally, after whole ten minutes of self-decision making, he decided that he will look for Scotland and let him spill what he is hiding. Northern Ireland dashed out from his mansion and did nation-hoping.

"Abducted?!" This time the whole nation exclaimed in astonishment then immediately shut their mouth after realizing that they were still in the public area. Wales hushed them, miming his finger before his lips. Germany harrumphed, embarrassed along with the nations, but soon regained his composure and got their attention. He suggested if they could discuss the topic further in the cafe where they are just standing right in front of it. The nations nodded in agreement and entered the coffee shop.

As soon as they entered the cafe, the aroma of coffees and cinnamons welcomed them. They sat at the vacant area and ordered their respective beverages to the waitress. Few minutes later, after receiving their orders, the nations are all ready to listen to the story from the Celtic nation.

Wales was sitting beside France while America and Canada at the opposite side of the table. Germany, Italy and Japan sat at the nearby vacant seat.

"Ok, returning to the topic, how sure you are that Angleterre is abducted?" France started to open the topic.

"We are not also sure about that, France but the blood stained in the carpet made us uneasy so we decided to search for him. Just a few minutes ago, Ireland told me that Sasan-, England wasn't around in Oceania, the whole country in Oceania. That doubles my anxiousness." Wales said trying to sound nonchalant as much as possible but that didn't work to some nations. France and America's eyes widened for a moment in bewilderment. They knew that England was in bad terms with his brothers. They felt that its kind a cute for the brothers of England to be worried about him

"So you admit that you are worried about Angleterre?" France asked Wales, wearing a mocking smile in his face. Wales flinch in his question and his cheeks was turning pinkish in color.

"I-er, y-yes, I'm a bit w-worried about him. I am his elder brother after all" he stammered, avoiding the surprised gaze and grins from the nations around him. "Anyway, we are not sure of our hypothesis and that is why we are searching for England"

"Can we go and check his study room? I want see how ravaged his room is" Germany suggested.

"I was curious about that too" Japan said.

"Me too" followed by Canada

"Who?" His white polar bear asked after drinking his hot milk tea.

"I'm Canada..."

Wales rubbed his cheeks and thought, deciding he should let them see the crime scene or not. While Wales was busy in his thoughts, Canada glanced over to his brother. He was sitting there in silence, probably worried about England. He knew that America didn't want to admit that feeling just like Wales did but his silence did show him that he was worried about him. The other nations noticed about him as well.

"Fine" Wales finally said the word that the nations where waiting for. "But in two conditions. First, you guys will help me finding England in different countries. Second, don't ever tell the others about this situation"

"Why not?" Italy inquired.

"I want to avoid further trouble and curious people, obviously. Plus, I don't want to make chaos either." Wales said and sighed deeply. The nations gazed on another and nodded. They understood what Wales meant

"Sure. We agree with your conditions." America said.

"Then let's start searching for him then." The nations drank all their drinks, pay to the counter, and left the cafe. Wales assigned each country the areas where they will be searching for England. America was assigned in North America continent, Canada in south, Italy and Japan in Asia, France in Europe while Germany and Wales in Africa.

"Let's all meet in England's place" Wales said receiving nods from the nations. They gave their short farewell, determining to find England and left as they nation-hopped to their respective continents.
