Chapter 9

AN/ well this is chapter nine. I think this is a major plot point in the series. I notice I have been whipping through his childhood fairly quickly. But I want the plot to move along. It's his fifth birthday now. Keep reviewing.

Harrys fifth birthday arrived with surprising swiftness. It seemed like the years just flew by. Russia was being strange.

"Big brother what's wrong?" Belarus asked.

"Harry is growing up so fast I have to watch him grow older and older while we all stay as nations." Belarus blinked, she'd never thought of it that way before.

"Well big brother do you know what Ukraine would say if she were here?" Russia looked at his little sister, he'd never seen her act so mature and calm.

"I'll bite, what would she say?"

"She would say to stop thinking about the future and focus on the present. Your son is having his fifth birthday and you are in your little mopey world." Russia sighed, she was right.

"When did you get so wise little sister?" she smiled.

"Since we found Harry and gave him a home." Belarus was about to hug Russia. Ukraine took that moment to intervene.

"Harry wants to know if you're going to come out to join us or if we should eat the cake all by ourselves."

"What but the cake's not even ready!"

"Well too bad if you're not out here in five seconds you are not allowed to have cake" She stuck her tongue out as she left the room.

Harry's birthday was a small affair unlike Christmas it was only him, Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. Russia and Belarus quickly joined the celebration.

"What's this I hear about no cake?" Russia asked as he picked Harry up.

\

"You weren't here and I figured it would get you out of hiding." He pouted

"I'm hurt I was about to come out to join you." Harry rolled his eyes and jumped out of Russias arms only to grab his hand and drag him outside.

"let's play tag papa!" Russia followed along behind him smiling happily, Belarus was right he shouldn't worry about the future. Right now all that mattered was Harry's birthday.

The game of tag quickly escalated into a full scale snowball fight between two teams of two. Russia and Ukraine against Belarus and Harry. Harry managed to hit Ukraine in the shoulder when her back was turned. Russia dumped a branch full of snow on Harrys head. Belarus responded by hitting Russia in the face with a snowball. The war was on the teams set and the fighting was brutal. Well in the fun Russian way.

After the fighting was over they all went inside to enjoy the cake that Ukraine made.

"Ukraine, you make the best cake." Russia said happily.

"You can't eat any until Harry makes a wish." Russia pouted

"Can't I have a little bit." Ukraine shook her head and continued on into the kitchen. The dining room was used for special occasions. Harry thought long and hard about his wish. Mostly to annoy Russia. He finally made a decision. Something he wished for all the time. Unconsciously his magic responded to his feelings stirring deep within him, reaching outside and embedding inside the ground all around him burrowing down into the foundation of the very city.

"I wish that I could be like my papa Russia." He blew out the candles. His magic reacted violently when his wish was spoken out loud. Seizing and drawing in the magic buried deep within the walls and foundation within the city of Moscow. Drawing it into himself. There was a strange flash of light that engulfed Harry. It made Harry feel dizzy and light headed.

"Harry what's happening are you alright?" Harry collapsed unconscious.

"Harry, Harry speak to me!" Russia was holding him close.

"Belarus get England over here now!" Belarus quickly ran out the door. She returned with England in tow.

"I'm here what happened?" Ukraine looked ready to burst into tears.

"We don't know there was a flash of light and then he passed out!"

"Well then we'll just have to find out what happened when he wakes up." England said watching the clock.

Harry woke up feeling strange, he was confused and his body wasn't responding the way it was supposed to. He finally managed to open his eyes. Russia noticed he was awake quickly and was at his side in a second.

"Harry thank god you are awake I was getting worried." He helped his son into a sitting position and offered him some tea. Harry took it gladly and took a sip.

"Ah good you are awake Harry, how do you feel?" he turned to look at England.

" I feel weird … like I can feel everything that's going on around me." England raised his eyebrows at him.

"What do you mean everything that's going on around you?" He frowned in thought.

" Like everything in the city. But that can't be only nations have that feeling right?" he asked.

"Well there are some exceptions. The capital cities can have there own personifications under certain conditions ." Harry looked at him for more information

" sometimes if a city is saturated in magic, like London it will have a mind of its own and create a personification. In this case Harrys magic reacted to his wish and absorbed the magic in the city combining to make him into the personification of Moscow." Russia was confused but he was also worried about Harrys wellbeing

"What does it mean?" well it means he'll be just like a nation except on a smaller scale, just city wise. If he dies he'll just wake up in his bed back here and he'll feel what's going on in Moscow regardless of where he is. He will be able to do a mind scan of any resident of his city and anyone who was originally born there. Don't worry Russia he will be perfectly fine." Russia relaxed knowing that Harry would be fine.

"Mr. England does that mean I'll live forever like Papa?" Harry asked.

"Yes you will. At meetings and in formal setting you will be addressed as Moscow so I advise you to get used to it." With that last sentence England left.

"Isn't that great Papa I can stay with you and everyone forever!"

Russia smiled as he drew Harry into a hug. Everything was right in the world as Russia's fears were banished by a small Childs wish.

England returned to his home to spend the rest of Christmas with his capital London.

"Why did you have to rush out so quickly Father?" England grinned

"There is a new capital for you to talk to Harry Potter became Moscow." London brightened.

"Really, that's great! Can I stop spending time with Rome now she scares me."

"No you may not that's rude, even if shes a little bit…. Odd and in any case Harry is Russias capital and will be scary as well." London hung his head but silently agreed. They settled down to drink tea..

AN/ well there you have it the end of Harrys childhood. Next up will be Hogwarts years (I cant wait :3) Me and a couple friends have a comic called Hetalia Apprentices where we are our favourite nations capital and are learning to be that nation. Its where I got the idea for capital cities. Keep voting on my poll and reviewing I want your input
