A/N: Here is China's fangirl. Thank you QueenofEpicFail for letting me use her.
I am so excited. I was clicking around on the Internet, and I had heard about some Hetalia season 5 rumors a while ago but OH MY GOSH IT'S LEGIT! That's right people Hetalia season 5 is on its way. According to the site I found we can expect it sometime this month (January). The only downside is that the animation will look a little different. But I got on YouTube and watched the trailer for it and I thought it looked fine. More new characters are coming, I even saw Romania in one of the screenshots.
Anyway, thanks for the reviews and wonderful ideas. I'm working really hard on all the chapters. After this chapter I'll introduce one more fangirl then have the meeting. That does NOT mean that I will stop accepting fangirl OCs I just feel I've been putting the meeting off long enough.
…I'm pondering the pros and cons of making the characters have karaoke night. Input is welcome.
This is the first chapter I have had to rewrite which I guess is a good thing. I apologize for the original version of this chapter. I redid most of the parts that involve North Korea in an attempt to make him more in character. Thank you Quiet Harmony-chan for pointing out my mistakes. While I'm not exactly happy about having made these mistakes, at least through this North Korea is out of the running for who sent the crates.
And lastly (I'm almost done with this long author's note), I don't know how most of the Asian nations act but I did my best. If you have any pointers for how I can improve any character please let me know.
Important note: As Quiet Harmony-chan pointed out, all of the Asian nations have their own homes. In this chapter all of them are at China's house to celebrate a holiday.
Chapter 9: Country Where the Sun Sets, Aru
China sighed as he picked up a dirty sock that was lying directly in the hallway. The thing was so old and encrusted with grime it was begging to be thrown away and China was more than willing to oblige it.
"Hong Kong! You are over two hundred years old, pick up your socks, aru!" China yelled as he himself took the offending piece of clothing and headed toward the trashcan. Hong Kong poked his head out of one of the guest rooms and pointedly rolled his eyes at the older nation.
"Taiwan, don't forget you're helping Vietnam later. Thailand, stop letting your elephants in the yard, they trample the grass and kill the bamboo, aru." China entered the dining room only to be given a hug attack by South Korea.
"Da-ze, your breasts are mine Aniki!" he shouted.
"I am a male!" China cried as he attempted to pry his younger "brother" off him. "South Korea let go of me!" After a long hard battle China managed to loosen South Korea's hold if not dislodge him completely. The door to North Korea's room open. He leaned against the frame and watched the two nations.
"Can you two keep it down out here, some of us are trying to work."
"North Korea, please help me, aru." China begged. North Korea shook his head and smiled slightly.
"You were the one who invited all of us here, now you pay the price."
"Is it so wrong to want to spend some time with my family?" China asked.
"If you involve him then yes." North Korea said, pointing at his other half. China sighed as he slumped into the dining room. He plopped down at the low table, South Korea still holding onto his back.
"Would you like some tea?" Vietnam asked as she sat down beside her brother. China blew out a breath and smiled tiredly.
"That would be wonderful, aru. Thank you." As Vietnam stood to enter the kitchen she paused, appearing to remember something.
"Oh yes, there is a suspiciously large crate outside addressed to you. I think there might be something alive in there. Thailand's elephants kept watching it."
"Thank you Vietnam." China said standing up and going outside. Just as Vietnam had said there was a large crate in the middle of China's gravel driveway.
"What could be in you, aru?" China asked the crate. What he didn't expect was for the crate to answer back.
"I'm Melody Carter and I'm suffering from skittle withdrawal!"
*Timeskip because I don't want to end the chapter yet and because I haven't used one in a while*
All of the Asian countries, excluding Japan, sat across from the strange girl who had been sent to China. Melody shifted slightly. Her long brown hair swooshed softly against her back and her blue gray eyes peered inquisitively out from her glasses. She had nearly died from happiness overload when China had let her out of the crate. Although she managed to get South Korea off of him, for which China was grateful, having Melody in his place was not much better.
"Aniki, can we keep her?" South Korea asked suddenly. Everyone in the room was surprised except North Korea and Hong Kong, both refused to show emotion.
"I-I guess, aru. It would be dishonorable to simply turn her out with nowhere to go." China said. Melody's face lit up with unmasked joy.
"Thank you so much," She said smiling brightly at South Korea and China.
"Aniki, what will you do with her when you go to that world meeting tomorrow? If you leave her here Mr. Russia will find her when he comes to pick up his order of sweet buns and wine." North Korea pointed out coolly. China paused.
"I don't know, aru. That is a good point. I guess I will have to take her with me but-"
"The pretty girl is dying!" South Korea called out, bringing attention to Melody who had passed out from fear upon hearing Russia's name.
Speaking of Russia he's up next…
