World War 2- During Pearl Harbor
"Sir! Sir! We were just bombed at…" the attendant stopped where he had burst into the office.
America was on the ground, curled up in pain.
The president looked up from where he knelt next to him on the floor.
"We know. Who?"
"J-Japan. On Germany's orders." As he said the last bit a loud sob could be heard.
" Calm down Alfred, things will be fine. We will not stand for this…"
Tears rolled down Alfred's cheeks, though he knew not if they were from pain, anger, or sadness.
It didn't matter from what anyway; he had figured they wouldn't…
World War 2-Afterwords
He wouldn't let this end like World War 1. He would not leave everyone scrambling to find something to stand with. That is why he offered to give everyone money to help pay off debts and kick-start their economy with.
He had already gone around asking most of the countries if they would accept his help, and some had and some hadn't. He had one last person to talk to though. The person he was most afraid to see again.
Standing at Germany's door, he reached down and rubbed the jagged scar that he could feel even under his jeans. He stopped, scolding himself. It was a nervous habit he had picked up through this last war, and something he had to stop.
"This scar… it was Japan's fault…" he said to himself under his breath, scolding himself for being so anxious. But the memory echoed through his mind.
"On Germany's order…"
No, he has no reason to fear, no one hates a hero… Germany couldn't hate him. They had both done equally terrible things to each other… It would be hypocritical to hate… he hoped.
He swallowed and finally raised his hand, knocking on the door.
"Hello?" the voice that answered the door was tired, and its owner even worse for wear.
"Germany…"
"Oh it's you America…" his voice was exasperated. " Go away. We have enough problems without you around…"
"Germany, I want to help. I don't want to leave you in the dust to fight your way back up alone… like before. I can help you pay off your reparations… I can…"
"No America. I don't need your help…"
America stared at him. At this point he would have bid any other country farewell and left them behind, but for some reason, he couldn't let it go. He couldn't do that, not to Germany.
"Germany… please… let me help you…"
"Nein…" the blond put a hand to his head like he had a headache, and looked like he wanted to slam the door in the other's face. " Nein… just go away!"
"Germany…. Please…. Let me help you! Put your pride aside! If not for yourself, for your people!" This plea wasn't as unheard as the others, but it didn't help him. It only made the other angry.
"You're so pushy America! Just leave me alone and go play hero somewhere else!" With that, the German seemed to give in to what he had wanted to do sense he had opened the door, and slammed it close.
With that, Alfred fell to his knees and cried. He just wanted to see Ludwig smile again.
History: America only joined WW2 when he was bombed in Pearl Harbor by Japan. I was reading about this, and it was apparently on Germany's orders that Japan bombed the US, and they did even though they were kind of not so happy about it. So yah. xD
And at the end of WW2 the US DID offer to help a lot of country's pay off their war debts, ESPECIALLY Germany. The US was very afraid that something like ths would happen again, so they didn't want to leave everyone in the position that lead to it last time. I am sorry if it is a bit repeditive.... I am not exactly sure how to explain it ^^;
