So, here's the next chapter~

I hope you all enjoy this story even more so!

Iceland = Emil,

Mathias sat in his chair, groaning.

The injuries on these people were a lot worse then he ever experienced when he was in the village. It was a good thing he used to be in a force or he thought he wouldn't stomach any of this. But the things in the force were a lot worser.

Neither he nor Laura were allowed to leave the infirmary until the day ended. Their lunches were brought up to them and if they needed the restroom they would have used the one that was made in the room.

This was bothersome. It meant they couldn't see anyone in the dinner room. They were pretty much isolated. They had no chances to see if any of their friends were around.

It was a good thing Natalia said she'll help look. They wouldn't know what they would do without her.

Night had fallen and they were escorted to their rooms. Their rooms were arranged by positions. Meaning Mathias and Laura would be in the same room.

They both laid in bed, neither of them being able to sleep.

"Hey..." Mathias said, staring up at the ceiling. "I'm gonna go out."

Laura quickly sat up in bed and stared at the Dane. "Are you crazy!?" She whispered over to him. "What if they catch you?!"

"I'm just going to see if I can find the others," he sighed. "Besides. I'm one of their doctors, they wouldn't get rid of me so easily."

Mathias stood and headed for the door.

"Be careful," Laura called out as she watched Mathias leave through the door.

The halls were dark and quiet. It was barely lit by the moonlight.

Mathias was sure to sneak around, trying not to get caught. He looked around each corner and tried to find what room the others may be in. Their rooms were quite nice, but that must only be since they were the doctors. They didn't have much in the castle.

He went further in the castle, quietly checking each door he passed. He didn't have to look inside any of them, they were all labeled. Which he was quite thankful for.

It was getting late, he was close to giving up when he heard a soft, small sob.

'Alfred? Matthew? Ludwig?' He thought to himself as he rushed over to the corner. As he peeked through he saw a young boy, sobbing into his hands.

It was too dark to see clearly but he could see the boy had short hair. It was longer than Ludwig's so it couldn't be him. His hair was slightly shortens that Matthew, so that leaves...

"Alfred!?" Mathias called out as he ran toward the boy.

The young boy flinched when he heard Mathias yelled out and was even more shocked when he was taken into an embrace.

"It's okay, don't cry," Mathias said in a soothing voice. "I'm here, you don't have to be scared anymore."

The young boy calmed down and cuddle up against Mathias. Wrapping his arms around his neck and enjoyed the attention that was being given to him.

Mathias stood up and rocked the young boy, gently rubbing his back. "It's okay, don't cry." 'Alfred...' He thought. 'I finally found you.. I fi-'

"Hey!"

Mathias own thoughts were cut off as he turned to where the shout had come from. There stood the prince, looking quite angry at him. By anyone he could have been caught by, it just had to be him.

"What are you doing with my little brother?" He asked.

Mathias stared at him confused. "What?"

"My brother," Lukas repeated. "Why do you have him?"

Mathias stood there for a few seconds before he pulled the young boy from the embrace. The moonlight shined on him. He had silver hair and purple eyes. This... This wasn't Alfred.

The young boy pouted when Mathias pulled away, but smiled at him.

Lukas came over and grabbed the child from Mathias' arms, holding him close. He glared at the Dane, before looking down at the young boy.

"Emil..." Lukas said softly. "Why were you out of your room?"

Emil looked up at his older brother. "I had a nightmare so I went out to go to your room but it was too dark to see." Then he turned to look at Mathias. "But then he came." He looked back at Lukas and gave him a small smile. "He held me close and made me feel safe, just like you would always do when I get scared."

Lukas place Emil down and stared at Mathias. "I see..." He called for one of his guards and told them to lead Emil back to his room, he stayed because he needed to have a talk with the new medic.

Mathias nervously stood there, wondering how much trouble he would be in for sneaking out and hugging the prince's brother. Lukas only stared at him for a few moments.

It was then he spoke. "Thank you."

"I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to do it! I won't do it ag-" Mathias stopped his apologizing when he processed what Lukas had just said. "Huh?"

Lukas crossed his arms and looked toward his left. "You heard me, peasant. I thanked you for what you did to my brother. Not many of my servants would have done that."

"...Oh..." Mathias said awkwardly. "Uh... You're welcome?" He then turned from where he came from. "Well, it's getting late. I should head back."

Before Lukas had a chance to reply, Mathias already left.

Once he was back to his room he was greeted by Laura. "Did you find them?" She asked as Mathias laid on his bed.

"No... I didn't find them..."

Even in the morning the medics had to get to work. They were given breakfast but then put straight to work. They'll never be able to find anyone like this.

Mathias was rearranging the medicine in the cabinet while Laura swept. If they were going to work there, they might as well clean up the place.

"I have to admit," Mathias began as he held up one of the many jars in the room. "They have some impressive medicine here. These would have been great to have back at the village."

"The village?"

"Yeah, you kno-" Mathias turned to see it wasn't Laura who replied but the boy he met last night. Emil stood there in the doorway, now walking in. "Oh! Uhm... Hello Emil. What are you doing here?"

"I came to thank you." He took a seat at the desk and looked over to Mathias. "I'm glad you were there for me last night."

'Well, it's more like I confused you for someone,' Mathias thought, but he smiled at the young. "Don't mention it. I'm glad you're better now."

Mathias continued to organize the medicine when he realized that Emil was still sitting there. Kind of awkward if you ask him. He sat there staring as him as he worked.

"Uh... Emil?" He said, quickly earning the gaze of the young child. "Are you perhaps... Bored?"

Emil looked down before he answered. "I don't have anyone to play with here. It gets really lonely..."

Mathias turned to Laura who gave him a smile in return. He sighed but smiled, walking toward the boy. "Well Emil." He place a hand on his shoulder. "I'm not busy at the moment, so how about we play together?"

Emil's eyes widen. "You mean it!?"

Mathias gave him a big grin. "Of course!"

Lukas wondered the halls wondering where his young brother had ran off to. He would usually be in his room, but he wasn't there today. He walked passed the infirmity when he heard laughter coming from the doors. "Did my little brother go through here?" Lukas asked the guards, which they nodded in reply.

Lukas opened the door, shocked at what he saw.

Mathias was currently giving Emil a ride on his shoulders around the infirmity as Laura stood back and happily clapped. The young boy was cheerfully laughing as Mathias lifted him off and gently tossed him up and caught him.

Lukas coughed, grabbing their attention.

"Oh, your highness!" Laura quickly said as she turned toward him. "We didn't notice you there."

Mathias placed Emil down, to which the young boy ran toward his brother.

Lukas looked at his brother then over to Mathias. He kept his gaze on him for quite awhile. Mathias would have thought he was in trouble again. But Lukas didn't say anything to him.

"Come, Emil." Was all he said before leaving the room.

Mathias and Laura stared at the door, even after the prince had left. They were both shocked that they weren't getting yelled at or anything.

Mathias was the first to move, walking back to the cabinet as if nothing happened. Laura then followed behind, continuing to sweep.

They stayed in awkward silence until the guard spoke.

"Hey! We got an injured field worker!"

Both Mathias and Laura stopped what they were doing and looked to see who the patient was.

When the door opened, all they could do was stare.

Don't you just hate it when you get your child confused with someone else's? That feel, man.
