Hi everyone! Here's the next chapter! I just painted my nails and typing with like, two fingers, so this could take a while…
Oh wells! Anyways, here ya go for the next chappie! (I always wanted to say that!)
Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia or any of its characters. If I did, Italy would be my personal chef every day. (PAASSTTAA!)
Alice froze. The person who had called her name sounded a lot like…
"ALICE! ALICE! OVER HERE! HEY ALICE! ALICE ALICE ALICE ALICE…" yea that was defiantly Jade. Probably no one else on earth could be that hyper.
"She can probably hear you! Why don't we go over to her instead of screaming and attracting attention?" some one shouted at Jade. Beverly. Jade was always getting on her nerves. Come to think of it, their relationship was a lot like Germany's and Italy's.
"Uh, who are they?" America asked. Alice had forgotten he was there. "Oh, uh, those are my friends I was looking for." America raised an eyebrow, but before he could say anything except, "Uuuhhh…" Jade came up and said, "ALICE! ALICE WE HAD MISSED YOU SO MUCH! DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED? YOU KNOW, YOUR TVS REALLY FUNKY IT MADE US ALL TELEPORT HERE IS THAT WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU TOO? OMIGOSH IT'S AM-"was what she screamed out before Beverly tackled her, and said, "Are you insane? We're trying to lay low and you're not helping matters!"
"Well, it's really great to see you guys too. Barely two seconds and Beverly is strangling Jade. You haven't changed a bit." Alice gave a worried glance to see if American had understood Jade's lovely little speech about Alice's TV and about her recognizing him, but luckily he seemed to have not understood most of it. Probably because she was screeching and because of how fast Jade could talk.
"Hey, Alice. It's been crazy around here. I think they're all going insane." Hailey said with a nod to the rest of the group. "Hello Alice." Emma said with a some what creepy smile.
"Hey Emma. You know, I'm surprised you didn't kill anyone when I wasn't around." She greeted her friend. "Yes, I know. Amazing isn't it?" Emma replied.
"Ok, so, uh, guys, this is America." Alice introduced to America, who was still standing there, looking a bit over whelmed. All her friends already knew America, but it would seem weird if they already knew him and a bunch of random facts about him. So silently they all agreed to have Alice introduce them.
"And America, these are my friends." Said Alice, gesturing to the odd group. "This is Emma, who's tough and kind of mean, but, like, gentle at the same time if that makes sense." Alice said. Emma nodded to America, making no reaction to Alice's comment about her. "Beverly's the blond commanding one, Jade's the extremely hyper one with green eyes." She continued, pointing to each of them. Beverly nodded to him, while Jade jumped up and down, and greeted him with a hyper, "HI!"
"This is Rose, Ms. Flirt-A-Lot, Hailey, the sophisticated, or acts like she's sophisticated, one." Rose smiled in a flirty at America and batted her eyes, while Hailey muttered to Alice, "I'm very sophisticated." who ignored her.
"And finally this is Maggie, our think-carefully-about-resources-and-even-more-carefully-about-about-money director, and Carrie, who's a little reserved and quiet, and waaayy to polite, but sweet." Maggie nodded to him and said, "Hello." While Carrie said, "Hello. It is a pleasure to meet you, Mr. America."
"Whelp, that's everyone in the gang. They'll probably freak you out sooner or later, so be prepared." Alice finished, turning to America with a smile. America had finally regained himself, and said, "Hey dudes, what's up? I'm America! It rocks to meet you all!"
Alice tutted and rolled her eyes. "You could take manner lessons from Carrie." She turned back to all her friends. "OK! So how have all you been?" Hailey muttered "Well aside from going slightly bonkers from these idiots, a lousy greeting from a friend we've been searching for weeks, and no way to get back home, just jolly, thanks."
Alice rolled her eyes and said, "Oh calm down Hails. You're supposed to be sophisticated, remember?" she gave her friend a warning glance, reminding her America was still here, and they couldn't talk about how they got here.
"Hey, how did you guys get here anyway? You kind of just appeared from no where. And what country do you come from? Where'd you come from, anyways?" he asked as though he had just thought of it.
So much for not talking about it. Alice wasn't sure what to say. "Um, no comment, that's true, not saying, and, uh, a place. That answer your questions?" she asked. Before he could answer, she grabbed the person closest to her, which was Maggie, hand and said loudly, "Hey, why don't I introduce you to everyone, else, ok? They would probably want to meet you!" She quickly pulled her away to a random direction, and everyone followed. Emma stopped in front of America, and said, "Stop asking questions." menacingly. America nodded quickly. "Uh, yea, ok, whatever you say, man! Just don't hurt me!" Emma found it some what amusing a country with a huge army was scared of her. She just nodded and followed her friends.
Alice figured all the countries would be in the Allies meeting room. They seemed to go there a lot for no particular reason. Sure enough, they were there.
"Hi peoples! Meet my friends or die!" Alice announced as she strode into the room, still holding tightly onto Maggie's wrist, who was trying to get free. All the guys gazed at her in surprise.
"Ah! So you have found your friends, eh? They look lovely! Why don't you introduce us?" France said, smiling. "Hey Mr., no hitting on my friends." Alice said threateningly.
She then pulled Maggie in front of her, and grabbed her by her shoulders instead. Maggie winced at her friend's amount of strength. "This here is Maggie. She is most like China." Alice pushed Maggie into China, and both of them toppled over. "This is Carrie." Alice said, grabbing Carrie and holding her by the shoulder like she did with Maggie. "She is most like Japan." Alice pushed Carrie into Japan, who caught her. They looked at each other with surprise, and then jumped apart. Alice noticed that neither of them liked people invading their personal space. That could change. "This here is my good friend, Jade. She is most like Italy." She pushed Jade into Italy. Both yelled, fell over, and then just lied on the ground whimpering. "Here is Beverly." Alice said, grabbing her friend, who struggled but was unable to get free. "She is most like Germany." Germany caught her easily then stepped away. Beverly nodded thanks to Germany, then both glared at Alice. "This here is Hailey. She is just as insane as you, Britain!" Alice said cheerfully, before proceeding to push her onto Britain. Hailey noticed what pretty green eyes he had, and blushed. Britain likewise noticed her stunning green and gold ones, and blushed as well. Hailey got off quickly, saying, "Sorry." hastily, and helped him up. "Here is Rose, who might be even more insane than Hailey with her obsession with boys." Alice said. Rose didn't even try to struggle, and Alice guessed would probably happily be pushed into a guy. "Gee, France, that makes her just like you! Yes, including the guy part, don't think I haven't noticed." She pushed Rose into France, who caught her and said, "Are you ok, madam?" Rose gazed up at him and said dreamily, "I am now." Alice rolled her eyes, and then grabbed Emma before she could run away. "Last but not least, is Emma, who is just as evil as you Russia!" She pushed Emma towards Russia, who sidestepped and let her fall. She grabbed his shoulder, more to bring him down with her than for her to get up. They both fell hard onto the ground.
"Ah, I believe I just did some good in the world." Alice said dreamily, looking at everyone who was either sprawled on the ground groaning or had gotten up and was glaring at her. "Well, I see you're just as insane as before." Muttered Emma, getting up off the ground, ignoring Russia, who was getting up too.
"Dude, are you like, trying to kill your friends and us at the same time?" America said, laughing while looking at the scene. "Hey, you didn't give me a chick!" he complained, turning to her.
"America, you can be forever alone. Or with Prussia or Canada, seeing how they will probably also be forever alone." She said, turning to him and grinning. He laughed. "Yea, right! Canada's my brother, and Prussia's insane. Plus, I'm not gay. Hey, you didn't get a guy, I noticed." He added, raising an eyebrow. Alice's heart skipped a beat when she realized she had left her and America by accident. It wasn't like she had meant to, right? She pretended she had noticed and didn't care. "Well, unlike SOME people, I like being forever alone. Guys are jerks. No offense."
"Whatever, man. I've seen way hotter chicks than these people. I could get all the girls I want!" America declared. "Then how come you're single if you're seeing a bunch of prettier girls every day?" Alice asked him, a sly smile on his face. America hesitated, but was saved when Maggie and China came up to Alice.
"Hey, that was rude of you!" China said crossly. "Yea, why'd you push me into China? Are you mental? " Maggie demanded. (Cough yes cough) Alice shrugged innocently. "I was trying to make a point." She replied calmly. Maggie lost it and started chasing her around, while Alice laughed the whole time. China and America watched them. "These girls are weird." China said, evidently confused at the girls attitude, so much different then he was used to.
Finally, the girls were forced to give up the chase, Maggie held back by Rose and Hailey. Alice was still laughing. "Ah, well, it's late, we better get off to bed." She said finally, wiping tears from her eyes.
"Assuming I'll be here tomorrow, unless these guys murder me in my sleep, can I take days off of training and such to show the gang around?" Alice asked Germany. He nodded, and then got yelled at by some Allies members for keeping up the training while they were at a peace treaty.
Alice's friend's said two things, one of them being, "You actually have a house? Oh thank goodness!" and "You joined the Axis when you got here? Are you insane?"
Some noise died down, as the boys looked at the girls. "How do you know what the Axis is?" Japan said, looking surprised. All the girls were at a speech loss for a moment, then luckily Maggie, being the quick thinker she is, said, "We heard around about it. Duh. How else would we know it?" She asked, pointing a finger upward like she did often and putting a hand on her hip, with a look that said I'm-so-much-more-superior-than-you. Everyone else except Alice nodded quickly.
They all had more questions about it, like what did they mean when she got here? Do they really mean it when that's how they know the Axis? Where did they even come from?
But before they could ask anything, Russia said, "Wait, a house? Alice, I did not know you owned a house? How did you get it?" Alice glared at him, but it was no use, he had closed is eyes with his trade mark innocent/happy expression. She sighed, then ignored the question. "Well off we go! Jade, come on, get up, don't make me send Beverly after you. Maggie, I would rather you not choke me, thanks. Come on, Carrie, Emma, Hailey, Rose. Off we go, off we go! Anways, uh, bye guys. See you in like, a week or something." She was out the door before anyone could comment. "A bit stubborn-headed, isn't she?" Britain said. "You're telling me." Hailey muttered before following her out the door. Maggie followed too, muttering stuff under her breath. Beverly grabbed Jade, who was still whimpering on the ground, by the collar of her shirt, and with a nod to Germany, was out the door. Rose blew a kiss to France and left, quickly followed by Carrie, who didn't glance back at Japan. Emma was the last to leave, bumping shoulders with Russia on the way out. Her hard brown eyes met his exquisite purple ones, and then she was out the door.
"Hm…somehow I am not convinced they have home." France said. America slammed his hand into his fist, and said loudly, "I say we go follow them!" Everyone just shrugged, not really caring one way or the other, and went out the door and into the shelter of the bushes, following the girls.
"So, I am guessing we do not have a home to live in, then?" Carrie asked. "Pssshh, no, but who needs one?" Alice replied, "Sane people." Hailey muttered. "So apparently not you." Britain snickered at her comment in the bushes, then got hushed harshly by everyone. Luckily he didn't seem to be heard.
"I am very sane." Declared Alice. Emma snorted. "Um, you pushed us into the guy we were most like. That's not exactly a great way to greet people." Maggie nodded. "I am going to have a huge bruise on my back!" she complained. A chorus of "me too!"'s echoed her. Alice rolled her eyes. "You guys are a bunch of wussus." She said.
"So if we push you into Mr. America, you would not mind?" asked Carrie somewhat pointedly. Alice patted her on the head, and said loudly, "First of all, hon, you need to stop calling him Mr. America. He's not your boss. And second, America's weird." "So do you not think any other guys are weird?" Jade asked. "Well…" Alice said hesitatingly. Then she said defensively, "I'm trying to get you people together! See the difference?"
"Not really." Hailey said, rolling her eyes. "You could ASK our permission, I mean we hardly know them except in-well you know, and you don't need to get us together, like, LITARLLY." She said. Alice waved her arm in windmill fashion. "Of course I do! It's all part of my master plan! And besides, who needs permission when you can just do stuff, anyway?" In the bushes everyone except America was agreeing in their head she was a lot like him.
"Well, we can settle matters whether or not I'm insane and that I should have or not have pushed you into the guy of your liking: tomorrow!" Alice declared, picking a spot on the ground to sit.
"What do you mean? We all have agreed all ready you need to go to a mental institute and that pushing your friend into a guy wasn't a great way to meet him." Hailey pointedly said. Alice scowled at her. "Why do you hate me?" she complained.
Now everyone in the bush except Britain was thinking how much Hailey was like him. And that her relationship was Alice was a lot like his with America, just Hailey got along with Alice better, and they were friends.
"Look, can we settle this tomorrow? I need my beauty sleep, and all this stress will make me break out!" Rose cried. Everyone rolled their eyes but settled down. At that moment, America decided to jump out of the bushes and confront the girls.
"AH-HA!" he shouted, causing all of them to scream, except for Beverly and Emma, who just look somewhat startled. All the guys followed America out of the bushes.
"I knew it!" France declared. "I told you they did not own a house, did I tell you not?" "Yea, we heard." Britain muttered.
"Were you stalking us?" Alice demanded. "Yes! And you don't own a house or anything!" America replied. "Well, thank-you captain obvious." Alice muttered, while Beverly pointed out, "Well, what are you going to do? Following us was pointless." She said in a commander voice.
Italy glanced at Jade, and then said excitedly, addressing all the girls, "You can stay at my house! I wouldn't mind!" "Italy, you live at my house." Germany said, with the blue line thingies down his face. "Can they please stay? Please please please please please?" Italy begged like they were a group of puppies he wanted to keep.
"Uh, hey, don't we get a say in this? We're perfectly fine staying on the ground for sleeping." Alice said firmly, until Jade broke in and wailed, "No! I don't like staying on the ground! Can't we stay at Germany's house?"
Beverly gave her a shut up look, and then said, "It would be rude of us just to barge in." America laughed, and said, "Well, we're all on a peace treaty right now, dudes! So you have to stay at our house, cause otherwise it would be rude!" he said loudly, pointing a finger in a random direction. The guy-country people gave him a weird look. Since when does he care about being rude? They wondered. Some of them suspected he just wanted to get closer to Alice.
"Ok! So, every week, you'll switch houses! All or our houses are big enough to keep all of you, cause we're rich! Ha-ha-haa!…ok so you'll be staying at China's house first ok?" America said loudly even though they were all right there. "Wa?" China said, obviously surprised and confused.
"That's right! And you don't get a say in this! Now, off you go!" America said with his usual grin on his face. Alice glowered at him, and he just smiled.
Ok, well that's the next chapter! Alice's true insanity come's out! Hooray! Oh, and she'll be like that for the rest of the story. She really, uh, STANDS OUT let's say. Ok, so remember to review, and the next chapter will come soon!
