(Knight: I'M ALIIIVE!~
And I updated! ZOMG.
Well, I saw Paint It, White the other day and I had this idea…
Yeah.
Feli.
Read on…
I don't own Hetalia, and the reason I haven't updated in so long…?
Siriusly Chibi. BLAME HER :D
Nah, JK…
But I AM SO FREAKING SORRYYYYYYY! OTL OTL HERE!
HAVE A CHAPTER!
PLEASE!
Arthur: I almost wish she DID own Hetalia…
It might be less random….)
Yao lay curled on the floor, listening to the noises outside with bated breath.
Please let them stay longer…
Don't leave…
Whoever it is, don't leave!
There were footsteps, and he heard a gruff voice, and a light voice mixed in with Japan-sensei's quiet monotone.
Then the steps faded and he was left in the dark again.
How could this happen to me, aru?
Ludwig nodded as the small black-haired man showed them to his workroom, half-listening, half keeping Feliciano in check.
The detective was on-edge, jumping at every small noise and always wanting to go investigate anywhere they were NOT going.
After about two minutes of Feliciano behaving like that, Ludwig grabbed him by the collar, said "Excuse me," to Honda and hauled him around the corner.
"What has gotten into you, Feliciano? We are here on business!"
"V-Ve~ I have a feeling like someone is here… Can I go investigate, Ludwig?~"
The older man sighed, slapping a hand to his forehead.
"….Fine. Go. I'll call you when we leave."
"Ve! Thankyou!" The small man turned and scurried into a side-passage that Ludiwg hadn't even noticed, all traces of silliness suddenly gone.
I wonder what he's on about…?
Ludwig decided that Feliciano was most likely just going to find someone to annoy, and left him to it.
"Ah, sorry about that, Mr. Honda… My- er- colleague has decided to investigate on his own… He will re-join us later."
A flicker of alarm crossed the man's face, soon to be replaced by a mask so calm Ludwig wasn't even sure if he'd imagined it at all.
"Certainly, Beilschmidt-san. Now, if you'd follow me…"
Feliciano walked down the passge purposefully.
He knew there was something worng here.
Just a sense he had.
Everyone always said he'd inherited it from his grandpa, but all Feliciano knew was that something wasn't right, and he needed to find out what.
"Ve~ I wonder…"
There was a door to his left, a normal-looking door that one would find in any house.
It smelt a bit odd, though.
He sniffed it, curiously.
Salty… Metallic… Human…
"V-ve…? Blood?" He cautiously pushed the door.
Locked.
Feliciano looked around. Nobody was in the hallway.
He cautiously knocked on the door.
"V-Ve…? Is anyone in there…?"
Yao raised his head, shocked.
A voice.
Someone…
Not Japan.
"Ve..?"
He opened his mouth and croaked out
"…He-llo…?"
Oh my god, please, please, let it be someone, please let them save me, oh dear god-
"Ve!~ I knew there was! Can you unlock the door?~" The voice was clear and bright, happy, too.
Yao was so happy just to hear someone.
"…N-no… I'm locked in. P-Please, help me, aru!" He was in so much pain.
So much.
But there was someone here. Whoever it was, they could help him.
"Ve~ I'll try!~ What's your name? I'm Feli!~" Yao smiled despite himself.
However this "Feli" had gotten in here, why in the world he was there anyway, he sounded so happy, so sure of himself…
"M-my name is Yao, aru…" He coughed, spitting blood onto the floor.
"Hello Yao! Nice to meet you! Now… Where is a lockpick, ve…?" Yao heard footsteps pattering along the corridor, away from him, then back…
"I found something!~" Yao gasped, almost sobbing in relief.
Someone can get me out… Somebody can save me, someone can get me out, oh my god…
There were clicks and scrapes, and then… Footsteps.
More footsteps.
Heavy, booted tread, and a catlike pad Yao only barely heard.
Japan-sensei.
No! NO, NO, NO!
"Feliciano? What are you doing?"
"V-ve, L-Ludwig…!"
Yao nearly sobbed.
So close, aru.
So freaking close.
He bit down on his tongue as the footsteps faded away, as he heard Feli's high voice and "Ludwig"'s gruff one bidding Japan-sensei goodbye, the car pulling away…
Then he gasped out one pain-filled sob, wracking his whole body.
WHY?
The second Feliciano got into the car he started to babble.
"Ve, Ludiwg! He has someone locked up in there! He can't get out and he sounded all hurt and I smelled blood! And he-"
Ludwig clamped a hand over Feliciano's mouth.
"DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU JUST DID?"
The muted detective looked up at him, scared.
"You just attempted to break into a room which we did not have a search warrant for! AND THIS WAS NOT AN OFFICIAL INVESTIGATION! Feliciano! You're meant to be a detective!"
The small man stared at him, then wrenched Ludwig's hand away and said.
"WE HAVE TO HELP YAO!"
Ludwig blinked.
"….Yao…?"
"Ludwig! He was locked in that room there! And there was blood and I said I'd help get him out and-!"
"Wait. YAO?"
"Ve~ Yes~"
Ludwig blinked at Feliciano before grabbing the keys and stuffing them into the ignition.
"Tell me everything!" he commanded, starting up the car and driving out at breakneck pace.
Yao curled up on the floor, trying his hardest to not scream.
It's not fair, aru!
It's just not fair.
He sobbed silently, shaken by the loss of hope.
It's not fair, aru.
(Knight: DO NOT KILL ME.
HE WILL BE OK.
EVENTUALLY.
But yeah, sorry for the Short!chapter…
Blame Siriusly Chibi and FearDaKitteh.
IT IS ALL THEIR FAULT.
Arthur: Oh, really…?
Alfred: Sure about that, dude?
Knight: STFU. IT IS. Anyways, I APOLOGIZE AGAIN AND I WON'T TAKE AS LONG UPDATING THIS CHAPTER! OTL OTL
So, um… R&R PLEASE? I LOVE YOU ALL!)
