Chapter 9: Together Again

~At Sealand's pond~

Once they arrive at the pond again Sealand goes straight to the edge of the pond, looking straight down, evidently looking to see if he could see where Stormfire was being held.
"Hey, it's alright. She's fine. Just look," Britain says, putting a hand on Sealand's shoulder and leading him over to the portal that looked into the cell that Stormfire shared with France.
Sealand looks at the portal in shock. "Where's Italy and Romano?"
"They got moved" Norway says, "And Finland and Iceland have been placed in the cell directly adjacent,"
"Look! That looks like Canada!" Sealand exclaims, pointing to the newest arrival in Stormfire's cell.
"Who? Oh yeah, America's brother," Britain says, looking into his portal.
"Hey guys! You'll never guess what just happened to Canada!" a loud voice yells. Britain sighs and looks up to see America running towards them.
"He just got taken by a sea monster. I know," Britain says in disgust. "So have Stormfire, France, Italy, Romano, Finland, and Iceland,"
"Wow, dude, why so many?"
"How am I supposed to know!" Britain says, his voice rising.
China sighs in disgust and shakes his head. The western nations were always fighting. "Instead of fighting can we try to rescue our friends?" China says.
"Yes, I agree," a soft voice says. China goes stiff and turns around to see Russia standing a few feet away.
At the sound of Russia's voice, America and Britain stop fighting and look up. "Well, welcome Russia. What brings you here?" Britain says nervously.
"Oh, I was just bored and wanted to come and see what my friends were doing,"
China sighs and shifts away from Russia. He had never been great friends with Russia, no one really was. He knew that now that Russia was here the other countries would work hard to find a way to keep Russia here on the surface while they went down under the water into the prison.
"Russia, how about you lead the group to stay here on the surface. What do you say old chap?" Britain says, trying to hide his nerves.
"Alright that sounds wonderful!" Russia says. "Now who will be staying with me?"
There is silence before Norway steps up. "I'm staying," he says, looking around at the others. Now that Norway had volunteered, others started to volunteer. Japan, Sealand, Denmark. That leaves China, Britain, America, Germany, Spain, and Sweden going down to rescue the trapped nations. With a sigh, Britain beckons to the nations who will be traveling down into the prison. They get close to the portal, join hands, and vanish.
