Work That Cannot Wait
Alex wakes before dawn the next day quickly writing a note for Ivan saying where she had gone. She opens a portal to the meeting area for her War dogs. Portals and gate ways soon began to open reveling all manner of supernatural beings they take their places at the table. "Welcome I sadly must say I have called you here to prepare for war Japan attacked my younger sister Lucy the personification of Hawaii. This can't go unpunished along with Japan I have been asked in adding the European personifications in subduing Germany and his allies. "Alex say she looks around the room at the face of each clan leader. " Now you do not have to fallow me in this but those who wish to please speak now." Alex once more watches them and one by one they agree to fallow her to war. Alex begins to go over plans with them.
-Ivan-
Ivan slowly wakes taking in that the bed was empty. He quickly gets up then and looks around and sees the note. He reads it then relaxes rising from the bed he goes to the kitten to make something to eat. He glances at the clock to see that it was almost past noon.
Just as he starts cooking Alex steps out of a portal behind him. She wraps her arms around him laying her head against his back. "Can you call England for me latter say I already put plans into action please?" she asks exhaustion in her voice. "Of course eat something then try and get some sleep I'll deal with Arthur." Ivan says softly she nods and moves over to the table and puts her head down on it. He finishes the pancakes he was making putting a plate and silverware in front of her. She smiles tiredly and eats slowly after finishing eating she places her plate in the sink before heading to the bedroom.
Ivan cleans up his spot before heading to his office to call Arthur. Picking up his phone he dials Arthur's number.
/Hello Ivan what can I do for you? /
"I was call on behalf of Alex she has made plans to subdue Germany and Japan."
/Wonderful may I speak with her though? /
"She is asleep at the moment due to having to leave extremely early this morning to talk to her War Dogs."
/Ahh alright then I will let you go I am sure you have paper work to do. /
"That I do. I will see you at the next meeting."
/Alright goodbye/
Ivan hangs up the phone he sighs and leans back in his chair looking at the stack of papers on his desk. Groaning he gets to work in hopes of getting the bulk of it done. Hours pass as he gets most of the work done he looks over at the clock seeing that it was almost seven. He stands up and goes to the bedroom to wake Alex up for dinner.
-Alex-
"Alex wake up love you need to eat." Ivan says gently as he shakes her shoulder. Alex slowly wakes up she wines softly not wanting to get out of the worm bed. "Carry me please" She says softly looking up at him tiredly. He smiles and picks her up and takes her to the living room and places her on the couch be for going to make dinner for the both of them. Alex curls up on the couch putting on a movie.
She grabs a fur blanket and wraps herself in it. She starts to doze off while waiting for food. Ivan brings out two plates putting them down on the table before going to get drinks. Alex wakes up once more picking up her plate and sitting up. Ivan walks back in with the drinks he sits next to her putting the drinks down and grabbing his plate. They sit quietly eating when they finish eating Alex takes there plates to the sink.
She returns to the living room and curls up next to Ivan. Ivan wraps his arm around her shoulders. She slowly relaxes completely into him the movie ends and Ivan puts a new one on "Tomorrow I have to go with the War dog to deal with Germany and Japan." Alex says softly Ivan grips her tighter "Alex you don't have to do this." He says with worry in his voice "Yes I do Japan made it personal when he went after Lucy." Alex say with bitterness in her voice. She sighs and curls up closer to him.
The go to bed shortly after the movie finishes. Alex wakes before dawn and quietly leaves after putting on a deerskin dress and dressing as she always does when going to war. She slips out of the room and portals to the planes that will transport her and the War dogs. They all get on the planes they take off and head toward Italy. No sound is heard on the trip as they all prepare for the coming battles. The hours of the trip pass quickly and soon they reach the landing point.
-Ivan-
Ivan slowly wakes to find the bed empty and panics knowing where she went. He rushes from the bed room and grabs his phone from his office calling Arthur in hopes of him know where she was located. The call went to voice mail Ivan throws his phone down "Alex why, why you didn't have to do this" Ivan mutters to himself pulling on his hair in a panic. Grabbing his phone once more he calls Canada to ask his son to find her. The personification of Quebec agrees and goes to search for his mentor. Ivan sat in the living room staring at his phone hoping that he would get a call from Alex or Quebec. Hours pass and he doesn't move and inch. Yet jumps moments later when the phone begins to ring grabbing it quickly he answers
"Hello "
/Ivan I'll be coming home soon I am sorry I worried you. But I knew if I said goodbye you would convince me not to go and I had to it is my fight more than anyone else's please understand that. /
"You didn't have to go alone Alex we could have figured something out I would have help you. "
/*sigh* I didn't want to put you in danger Ivan Japan is far older than many and is a skilled fighter. Tomorrow I will capture the Italy brothers along with Gilbert and force Ludwig to give up or face me himself. /
"Alex please be careful Prussia will be the strongest even now."
/I can handle him after all I dealt with Japan. I will see you soon Ivan I have to go now we must move on. /
"Be safe Alex"
The line goes dead and Ivan sighs relaxing somewhat knowing that she was still alive and well.
