After that, we were rushed down to the first floor, where the offices were. We were then briskly walked into an office, and forced into a chair.
"What's happening, Nico?" Lise squeaked, squeezing my hand. We then heard the voices of Jonesy, New York, and Sealand outside.
"Axis children? So that's what I had to pause my Pokemon game for? How can there be Axis children?" said a voice that I figured was New York.
"The test results don't lie!" Jonesy insisted.
"I'll go notify my big brother, and the Axis and Allies!" said Sealand.
Axis and Allies, what? I thought.
"Whatever!" yelled New York. "I'll have to go explain to them what's going on. They must be terrified."
New York then entered the dorm, walked to the chair behind the desk, and looked at us hard. He was wearing nothing but Snoopy pajamas.
"I guess you guys would like to know what's happening, right?"
We nodded.
New York sat back in the chair. "You know World War II, right?" he asked. "It was America, England, China, Russia, and France vs. Italy, Germany, and Japan. Of course, the Axis lost."
"Hey, that's what we were learning about in school today!" Lise exclaimed.
New York nodded. "Well, after a country loses a war, they usually get some form of punishment. They have to pay taxes, give up their land, et cetera. But the end of World War II was different. Since the Axis had committed such crimes against humanity, there was a new punishment given. The members of the Axis were not allowed to have any more children for a hundred years."
My eyes went wide. "It all makes sense now! Italy and Germany were a part of the Axis, and we're their kids!"
New York nodded. "Exactly. And since your parents broke this rule, there will probably be some form of punishment for them." He paused, and looked at his watch. "Whew! Look at the time! It's already 11:00. You guys should be exhausted!"
I then realized that I was. Lise, actually, had fallen asleep.
"We'll send you to one of the extra bedrooms in this building. And tomorrow, we'll get you two sorted out. Maybe you will even meet your parents.
