So here we go, Arizona!

x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x

Arizona was different than most of her siblings. Most of them, the girls for instance, were all special and talented. She wasn't as talented, but her personality is what stood out. She was strong, in fact one of the strongest states of her siblings, but of course she could never be as strong as her younger brother Alaska. She was indifferent and never spoke upon her dark, tanned face. She was once Spain's child, so she looked much like the country himself. Her hair was a dark, luxurious brown, and she was short but very stocky. Her broad shoulders made no match for fashion shows, like her big sister California, but they were ideal for mining and hurting anyone who dared to hurt her family. Her eyes were slanted and they were an oak brown. Her stance was always ready to jump.

Arizona was born into the care of Indians, so they taught her to live off of the land. She would teach her own people sooner or later to mine and go to the Colorado river themselves, as they would eventually in her future. She farmed corn most of her life, hunting also. Spain also raised her at one time, trying to teach her to be playful, nice, and cute, but her personality was much too strong. She eventually fell into America's care one day.

That was Arizona, a state working on her own, until the end of time.

For this occasion, of showing her Uncle around, she wasted her precious time grumbling while she made hats and shoes and clothing for herself, so she would impress him (even thought she acted like she didn't give a crap,) She had beautiful beaded things attached to her clothes, though she never fancied such things.

England had arrived earlier that morning, in fact all of them had, from Alaska's house. Arizona had taken an earlier flight, so she could prep for such an event. Nothing like her cheery old parent, Spain, she never knew how to entertain her guests. Simply, she gave them food and shelter and a place to chat while she went on with her life.

All of her lower family came out of the plane, Hawaii, Alaska, and New Mexico. They were all smiling, and for once, she saw Alaska with a big goofy grin on his placid face.

Arizona waved her hand to them slowly, not making much enthusiasm with her gaze. England furrowed his large eyebrows, bowing lightly.

"Ello there, Miss Arizona." said England. Arizona didn't flinch, nor seem to acknowledge he had never been here before.

"Buenos." Said Arizona. She looked at all of them quite blandly, and motioned to a car not too far away. "We can go where ever you really please, I don't care. Please don't damage any part of my home."

Under her breathe, Arizona always whispered "Ditat Dues," under her coarse voice, which meant "God Enriches," which was true, her land was full of treasures waiting to be discovered.

The first place the five of them went to was the mines. They went looking for ores, and they actually thought they would find some gold. Of course, they found bits of copper here and there, but due to safety issues, they were not able to go farther in. They went white river rafting in the Gila River, and personally, everyone had a pretty good time, other than Arizona, of course. She had done this all the time, so it was kind of starting to wear off on her as a bit boring.

All of her siblings were seeming to enjoy themselves, so they sparked a small, tiny flame in her heart and soul. Of course, she didn't need to show emotion, because she never did anyway. She was the Silver state; she knew everything shone in their own beautiful way. She was, "Arizuma."

"Arizona, what do you like to do here, when your all alone?" asked little Hawaii. All of the states and England looked over at Arizona.

Arizona blandly looked out the car door. "Driver, take us the Grand Canyon National park, please." She said.

Everyone looked at each other in shock. They had all thought the Grand Canyon was in Nevada, for Pete's sake! But no, part of the extremely large park was also embedded in Arizona too, wouldn't you know. It was a long and tedious drive, going all the way north to the border of her state. It was starting to get late, but they remained on the top of a large cliff.

"This..." Arizona whispered softly, hearing the wind blow in her ears. "Is what I do when I am here, by myself."

The scenery was large and orangey; the rocks seemed to glow in the dying sunlight, and the cactuses stood higher than you could see. Rocks were splayed out, but you could see animals getting ready to slumber, and the snakes chattering away.

England then understood this young girl. She was alone, she was a person who loved and would forever enjoy her home. Smiling, he took her hand and said, "But you aren't here by yourself anymore, are you?"
