IN FRANCE AND CANADA'S ROOM…
Canada (soul) was pacing the room.
"Mattieu, could you stop pacing? It is getting on my nerves."
"It's getting on your nerves? I know that something is wrong with Germany and Italy and Alfred and England were definitely acting weird. Plus, I accidentally overheard a conversation between Japan and Switzerland and even they were acting like they've switched places! I know that this is some weird magic but I'm gonna KILL whoever has hurt Alfred, I swear…"
"Attendre… did you say Alfred is hurt?"
"At least his soul is. We are practically twins so I can kind of tell when he's hurt."
France stood up and grabbed Canada's hand. "We need to see Arthur."
"But, Francis…"
"If your brother is hurt, and if their bodies have switched, then Alfred's body will be in their hotel room. We need to see if he knows anything. Plus, I've got a feeling that somehow, Angleterre will know physically what Russia is doing to his significant other's soul and his body. He might need comforting if anything else"
Canada and France just stared at each other for a moment before rushing to Alfred and Arthur's hotel room.
"ANGLETERRE!" Francis yelled. "WE KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE AND THAT YOUR BODIES HAVE BEEN CHANGED. WE NEED TO SEE YOU!"
A weak voice replied "Go away, bloody frog."
"Please, Arthur. We think we might have some answers that can be solved. But, we need to see you. I know my brother is hurt!"
There was a very suspenseful silence before they heard the lock click and the door open to reveal a very tired Alfred.
"It's all my fault." He said with a British accent. "It's all my fault."
"It's not your fault. Let's talk, okay?" Mathew said in Francis' body.
Arthur stared at him before understanding what had happened.
"Come on in, then."
"So, Angleterre, tell me what happened."
"Alfred and I had just figured out what happened and who did it."
"Who is it?"
Arthur's soul paused before opening his mouth. "I can't tell you."
"WHY NOT? MY BROTHER IS HURT! I NEED TO KNOW!" Mathew shouted at him. Both Francis and Arthur (souls) looked at Mathew (soul) in surprise.
"You never get worked up like this." Arthur said staring at Mathew in surprise.
"Well, in case you don't know, I'm already under stress from this," he said pointing at his body, "plus, the fact that I know Alfred is in pain is putting me under added pressure to make sure he isn't killed!"
Arthur flinched at this. He knew what Alfred was going through too. His body was under a lot of random pain and it was affecting Arthur's soul.
"What are we going to do?"
"Well, Angleterre, tell us who is at fault for this um…"
"Problem?" Mathew offered.
"Yes."
Arthur paused for a moment before blurting out, "It's Ivan."
"That's what I figured." France (soul) said.
"So, is anyone else involved?" Arthur asked before weakly sitting on the bed.
"Japan and Switzerland have switched. They were the most inconspicuous but I overheard a conversation of theirs accidentally. Japan wouldn't say half of these things unless there was some oil or some kind of bribe. Germany and Italy, well… it's pretty obvious."
"Huh. Are you sure that's it?"
"Positive. Everyone else was completely baffles during the meeting and the others were merely trying to pass it off as normal so…"
"Well, what are we going to do about it?"
"I don't know. Perhaps Germany could do something? He's the strongest of all of us." Canada mused.
"We should go ask him. He is the best other than Japan about battle strategy. If we could get both of their heads together…" England started.
"It would work" France said.
As they left to go, there was another strong wind. Arthur gasped as he realized what the wind was and looked at France and Canada to make sure they wouldn't leave but nothing happened. Then, it must have been…
"We need to find the others now. I think something bad just happened." England said and he sped up. Once they arrived at Germany and Italy's room, they heard a scream that DEFINETELY was one of surprise and shock. But it wasn't Germany's or Italy's voice…
