Italy heard Lithuania's cries down the hall. Germany jumpped at the high shrieking sound and turrned his head towards the door. "Was that Lithuania, screaming?" Germany said shakily. Italy clinged on to Germany. The other Baltics hid behind Russia as every one in the room froze for a second. Russia brought out his "Magic Cane" and stood up.
"Lets see what happened in the hallways, da?" Russia said showing no fear nor concern. Everyone nodded as every one followed Russia outside, Latvia close behind him. Opening the door, heavy air filled the room making every one fearful of what to find of Lithuania. Everyone walked slowly through the darkness until Russia stopped. Bringing his cane up to his chest in a defensive position, he smiled.
"Is any thing wrong sir?" Latvia spoke, more like shook out. Latvia was holding onto Russia's scarf shaking and trembling. Estonia right behind him doing the same.
"Da, these gates, in front of the stairwell, they weren't this wet when I last saw them."
"What that at the bottom of the gates!" Some one screamed.
There laid Poland, blood drizzling out of his mouth, looking blankly to Russia, with a lifeless, fixed stare. Every one jumpped back at the sight of Poland's dead body.
"Woah! What happened to Poland!" Belarus asked. Spain looked like he was ready to throw up, along with other nations at the sight of intestines and guts clinging onto some bars of the gates. England gulped and looked like he was about to say something, but never said any thing. Hungary turned away and placed her hand over her mouth.
"Wh-Who killed Poland? And why i-is he like this?!" Italy said, covering his eyes and wimpering. Germany held Italy close as into comfort him. "I don't know Italy." England looked at the body closer and noticed there were no fingers." I think Poland just slipped at the wrong time, hopefully..." Ukraine tried to believe. England, Looking at the sight, he slowly turned away and pinched his head, thinking. France on the other hand stared contently at the railings, noting they have collapsed.
" I don't know if this would be a clue but, le railings, they seemed to have collapsed."
England looked back, noting the railings too. " Wait, Poland's fingers, the railings." England pieced the evidence together. "Poland didn't die accidently, this was all planned. A set up to kill us in the first place." England explained.
"You see, Poland wouldn't of held the railings if he had some steps to climb back up again. Either the steps disappeared or he was planned to die. Second, that extention cord points to the fact that some one, probably Lithuania, tried to save Poland from those spikes, rising slowly. The railing must of collapsed and amputated his fingers. making him slide down and slide to his doom, unable to get off in time, he died, sliding down leaving Lithuania to cry out in agony. This means one of the killers must know how to put on a perfect trap."
"My, My England. You found it out so quickly huh? " France said.
"Magic sense." England prided in himself.
Latvia looked up while the others agreed with England's theory. Seeing a shine of something, he opened his mouth as it shot out at him. A robotic arm caught Latvia in a tight grip around the waist as Russia turned and tried to hit the robot arm, failing to do so, Latvia was pulled else were at high speed, screaming out to Ivan. " LATVIA!" Estonia cried out trying to catch up to him. "ESTONIA!" was the last thing heard from Latvia to the group.
Sealand walked though the hallways with a toy chain saw, specially made from America, and a white sheet draped over him in the appearance of a retro Halloween ghost. "Heh, Wait till Jerk England get a load of this." Sealand told himself as he saw Latvia hitting a robotic arm, flying past him at high speeds. "Latvia?!" Sealand cried out, following him into a room where he saw Latvia being carried into. The door shut harshly and locked itself. Sealand tried opening the door but it refused to open. "Latvia! What are you doing?!" Sealand cried out hoping Latvia would answer back. No response. Noticing a glass wall near by, he peeked in seeing Latvia in the center of an empty room, next to him, a Russian Roulette.
Latvia got up recovering from blood rush and looked around, there were three doors on two sides of the room he was in. Then he heard two unfamiliar voices. "Oh ho ho, Hello dear Russia. It is us the killers. Dont bother asking questions since this is pre-recorded. Here is the Entertainment room. nice and cozy isn't it?" Latvia shivered at their voices.
"Here we are gonna play a game we love to called Gamble, Kill, Maul. See the machine right there? You will play against the computer to a game of Better Hand. Try and stop on cards that add up higher than your opponent, but don't go over 21. Win and we open one possible exit. Lose and we unleash mechanical Tigers. Don't worry, only five of them won't kill you. One will. That's when the Russian Roulette comes in, yes? Just hope you shoot the right one. Ok? Got it sweety? Bye!" Latvia screamed at the word kill. He banged the door as hard as he can, Hearing Sealand trying to open it.
"Sealand?! Help me please!" He heard growling coming from one of the doors. The floor electrocuted him. Again the speakers came on again. " Oh did we mention if you try and to get out, we will electrocute you. this is a warning. Next time, we'll put the room at enough voltage to kill ten cows." Latvia had a choice, play and hope the fates are in his favor, Lose and hope he kills the right one. He trembled at the decisions. " If you don't hurry up and play, this room will catch fire soon." The voices mocked him. He slowly came up to the machine and the screen showed cards scrambling, he clicked stop and he got cards only known to him. The scores showed on the screen. Com 20. Latvia waited. Player 21. Latvia sighed and a door opened up. He crawled through the door only to find out it's a dead end. turning back he was greeted with a familiar voice.
"Try again Love."
He stopped his cards and they turned over instantly. Com 18. Player 20. Another door opened up only to lead to another dead end.
"Try again "
This time Latvia gave a frustrated sigh and clicked the stop button again. Com 15. Player 22. Latvia gave a cry of fear. Hearing six multiple tigers walking towards him at the same time, he dashed for the Russian roulette and hoped. He tried shooting one, no bullet. He tried shooting another, no bullet. Another, no bullet. Another, a bullet finally shoots out and the tiger fell.
"Ding Ding! Correct, you get to live another day! Erm, hour?" The other mechanical tigers fell and all doors opened. Latvia was greeted by Sealand who hugged him. "Latvia! that was awesome! How did you know that was the real tiger!"
"Well, real tigers don't have red coats and black stripes, rather orange coats and black stripes." Latvia felt safe again, for at least another hour. He walked out with Sealand by his side. They took a step outside where the ground clampped together with steel teeth, as in the form of a bear trap, narrowly missing Sealand. Latvia screamed, then was silenced as his skull became squished between the teeth. Sealand stood there, horrified, trying to piece together what just happened. Russia finally arrived, falling to his knees as he saw Latvia, Headless, trapped in a cage which resembled a bear trap, with a lion, feeding off the fresh meat. Sealand ran to England who was equally horrified. The entire group stood there, weeping, terrified, and shaking.
-oo000oo-
"Darn it you killed the wrong person!"
"Well sorry! I didn't control where the arm went, I thought for sure Russia would stand right there, not that cry baby Latvia!"
"At least thats one less nation to take care of. But, England seems to be quite the investigator, along with Italy and Germany... hmm"
"What are you thinking about this time?"
"How about we open the gates on the stair wells to the public?"
"Oh now I see, that Reserved Room, right?"
"Yep."

Sorry if this wasn't descriptive or was over descriptive, I haven't had much sleep lately and my thoughts are all jumbled up lately. Please review so I know what I can do to improve the story. I'll try to make this more descriptive and clearer next chapter. I tried but I don't think I was descriptive enough for this chapter.
