Japan waited impatiently as Romania tried calling America for the 5th time. But when Romania had a light frown on his face as he looked down at the phone's screen and pressed the 'end call' button, Japan knew it did not work.

"It's no good. The signal is back, but no one is picking up at all." Romania sighed and slipped the phone back into his pocket.

"I see, that is very unfortunate. What should we do now? I am afraid that America san may be in trouble over there in that time frame." Japan spoke out his worries.

"Well we can't be sure that he is in trouble. Maybe he just misplaced his phone or something. Besides, this is America we are talking about. Even if trouble does not pick on him, he will go around looking for one. It is all just normal, isn't it?" Romania joked as he walked out of England's house, Japan following behind.

"I cannot deny that fact. However, this trouble may just harm him." Japan still could not relax.

"That is why we are going to pay Greece a visit." Romania grinned as he locked the front gates of England's house.

"Greece san? Could you be thinking that Greece san may have a counter spell to get America san back? If that is the case, it would be a great idea!" They may even be able to hide the whole incident from England!

"Nope." Romania popped Japan's hope bubble almost immediately.

"Pardon?"

"If this spell does have a counter spell, I would know. This spell is created by England, and only England would know how to counter it. The only reason we are visiting Greece is to see if he knows anything about the effects of the spell. After all, he created Pandora's story right?" Romania pointed out as he started drawing something in the air with his index finger.

"I see. Umm, Romania kun, may I know what you are doing?" Japan asked curiously as his eyes followed Romania's finger, trying hard to figure out what Romania was drawing.

"Well we are not going to walk there right?" Romania grinned, showing his vampire tooth. "Hold on tight, this may be quite scary for a first timer." Romania instructed as he gestured for Japan to cling on to his shirt.

"H- Hai, but do you mind explaining what you are going to do?" Japan did not like where this was going.

"Just watch and be amazed." Romania smiled as he started drawing circles in the air as rays of light appeared out of nowhere and started circling them, slowly wrapping them up and .

"Na-na-na-na-na-na… Nani?" Japan stuttered as he totally freaked out.

"Don't worry; it will be over in a few seconds." Romania replied calmly, as the light started to slowly fade away. First timers, always making such a big fuss over a normal transportation spell.

As the light faded, Japan noticed the change in environment; they were no longer standing in front of the huge metal gates, but in the middle of an empty field.

Not far away, Greece was sitting in the middle of a pile of cats. A cat was in his arms, staring at Japan and Romania with the same shocked expression as Greece; bulging eyes and widely opened mouth that one can fit a whole apple in.

"Ah, Greece kun! It is nice to see you again!" Japan greeted and bowed politely.

Be nice, it is the solution to everything, especially breaking the awkwardness of seeing two guys appear out of nowhere.

"Ah… Umm. Nice to see you…" Greece replied in his slow and relaxed pace.

"Yo, I see you are still crazy about cats." Romania smiled as he approached Greece and sat beside him, lifting up a brown cat and immediately started playing with it.

"They follow me wherever I go…So… I guess I will play… since I am free." Greece stroked the cat on the head lovingly.

"Greece san, we are very sorry for bothering you, but could we please ask you some questions?" Japan asked as he followed Romania's example and picked up a black cat with a ring of white fur surrounding the bottom half of its face, resembling beard.

"…Go on."

"We would like to know more about Pandora, that woman in one of your myths." Romania got straight to the point.

"Pandora was created by the gods… As the perfect woman. She…was given a box, and was told to never open it." Greece explained slowly.

"Pandora's box, right? She then opened it because she was too curious and that caused all the dark emotions to escape from it, am I right, Greece kun?" Japan asked as Greece nodded with a slight smile.

"So what exactly is in that box?" Romania asked as he held the cat's paw gently.

"Dark desires… Greed, envy, violence, evil, regrets, impulsion, betrayal… The list goes on forever." Greece counted as he sighed.

"Then what do you think of this spell? It is a spell England created based on Pandora." Romania showed Greece the book.

"…To make Pandora reappear… It is just a wild guess, but it may has something to do with memories." Greece replied after staring at the book for a few minutes.

"Memories? Why? Memories are not evil." Romania raised an eyebrow, not getting the idea.

"I… Might be able to… Give you a better answer, if you can tell me the situation." Greece asked as Japan and Romania turned to stare at each other.

Great, now they will have to tell one more person about this.

"So just like that, America san ended up in another time frame." Japan explained with some hand movements.

"So we are hoping to get America out of there without letting England know anything." He did not want to deal with an angry England.

"I… See… You said that… America saw the pirate version of England…?" Greece did not quite get this part.

"America got back to the time where England was about to discover the young America. If I did not read England's diary wrongly, he should be a pirate back then." Romania replied as he thought of the things he read about in England's diary that was hidden under a pile of nicely folded clothes in England's wardrobe.

Some things written inside were really… Interesting. It made him look at England with a new light.

…Japan did not want to ask how Romania managed to find England's diary.

"England san's diary? What was written inside?" Japan asked. He may not want to know how Romania got it, but he was very interested in the content.

"I don't know, I only browsed through it. I am not that free you know. Besides, some parts were sealed with super complicated magic and I did not want to wreck my brain trying to think of a counter spell." Though America's name was often mentioned in the other diary entries…

"I see. What a waste of opportunity." Japan muttered.

"Huh? You said something?" Romania gave Japan a questioning look.

"I was saying that we should get America out as soon as possible." Japan gave Romania a perfect 45 degree smile.

"…If that is the case, then… You should think about… Regrets… and Betrayal." Greece came to a conclusion after some thinking.

"Huh? But why?" Romania still could not get it.

"Ah… I see. Thank you very much Greece san, I know what to do from now. Sorry for bothering you again. I will send you a box of cat ears hairband as a gift of appreciation." Japan stood up, adjusted his clothing, bowed, and dragged the puzzled Romania away.

"Wa- wait! Japan! What did Greece mean? Where are we going?" Romania struggled to catch up.

"Romania kun, I do not like this idea, but we have to go and look for France Kun next. Please teleport us to his house, and if we are lucky enough, Spain Kun would be there as well." Japan sounded like he was determined to die.

Romania did not like where this was going.
