Chapter 5: Purely Awesome Visitor

Gilbert wasn't really sure why he'd tried to help that girl get a real, awesome name like his. Usually, he wouldn't help anyone. In fact, he'd surprised himself by not invading her vital regions right then and there and claiming her as his land. Maybe he should have done that, instead of this…

Annoyed, he shoved another large bite of pancakes into his mouth. No, he couldn't do that, could he? He had no idea how large her army was, and it would have been just him against them. Though, from the looks of her, she probably didn't even have an army.

That said, he STILL would have been unable to do that, somehow.

He let out an annoyed groan. "Damn it, Gilbert! What the hell is wrong with you THIS time?! You're freaking PRUSSIA, the great and powerful nation… For god's sake!"

"Gilbert! Shut up and do the damn cleaning!" Germany yelled from somewhere down the hall.

Gilbert rolled his eyes. "As if…" Grabbing his bag, he threw a note in West's general direction and headed off to visit Seychelles.

Seychelles was about to enjoy a fried and breaded carp with a side of escargot, made by the old granny, at the moment.

"Itadakimasu!" she exclaimed, in the way she'd been taught by a foreign man visiting the country long ago. She took a bite of it and looked up, smiling brightly. "It's delicious, grandma! Thank you!"

The old woman looked happy. "You're welcome, mon chou."

After quietly eating for a few more minutes, Seychelles looked up again. "Hey, grandma… How come I don't have a name? Like, a real name…"

"Hmm? What brought this on?"

She sighed, remembering the episode from a couple days ago. When was Gilbert coming, anyways? "Well, I was talking to Gilbert the other day, and-"

"Gilbert?" The old lady looked surprised. "Is he a friend of yours?"

"Um, well, sorta… It's hard to explain. See, you'd have to meet him to understa-"

There was a loud shriek of feedback, and a voice came over a microphone from somewhere outside.

"Hahaha! I, Gilbert Beilschmidt the purely awesome, seizer of vital regions, also known as the great empire of Prussia, has arrived to bring some awesomeness into your bland little island lives! Niyo niyo niyo…"

Seychelles ran over to help the old granny, who had fallen over in shock. "That… would be Gilbert…"

The poor old lady passed out.

Gilbert was surveying the island when Seychelles was finally able to come out and find him. He was grinning like a madman. Which, considering all things, he probably was.

"You may actually be more awesome than I thought. Maybe. I doubt my awesome sensor would be so un-awesome as to get something wrong…"

Seychelles rolled her eyes. "Is that a compliment or an insult? Anyways, welcome. Do you want a tour, or-"

The albino shook his head rapidly, causing Gilbird to flutter off to a more comfortable position on the island girl's head. "Tour?! Screw that! I wanna swim!" That said, he yanked off his shirt, revealing ripped abs that would have made even France blush (But then, France would have blushed at any man's chest and knocked them onto the bed, wouldn't he?), and ran to the cliff edge, diving straight off it into the water.

After all, he WAS awesome.

Seychelles looked down to see him waving for her to follow. She shrugged and dove, somersaulting through the air for a perfect splash. Poor little Gilbird was flipped headfirst into the deep blue sea, only to pulled out by his awesome master.

The Prussian was already on his back, leisurely propelling himself around. "Now, isn't this a more awesome way to plot world domination?" West would have been so pissed if he knew where his brother was at the moment. He'd be jealous, of course. After all, Gilbert got all the girls thanks to his awesomeness, and all Ludwig had was Italy and some erotic books.

…At least, that's how it was in Gil's mind.

Seychelles giggled, splashing around a bit in the water. "So, what did you have in mind, oh great Gilbert?"

"Well… Even though I'm used to gaining power by fighting, I figured we could join together into one country, then launch an attack to take back some of my old land. I could probably take down and entire army on my own, but I need a base before I can even count as a country again, so…"

The brunette girl paused in her swimming. "Join together? How?"

Gilbert was silent for a moment, wincing slightly. His next word was one he'd never expected to say positively when referring to himself.

"Marriage."

A/N: OMG WHAT? Haha, I'm a genius~ -shot-

Okay. About the granny. I know in Gakuen Hetalia she had a grandfather who sent her there 'n stuff, but I just think the old lady fits better for my purposes.

…Okay. Fine. I forgot about gramps when I originally wrote it. But it fit better in the end. SO HA.

And… Yea. After this is where everything really begins! Hahaha! (Agh… There's, like, 40 more pages to tyyyyype…. ) SO KEEP READING!
