Yay Chapter 11! (I can't think of anything witty to say at this point XDD)
Enjoy!
Within a matter of hours, Hungary's team made it to Austria's base. Switzerland was the first one pumped up and ready to shoot his K31 for practice. Before he went in, Hungary was advised to go in first before anyone else. No told her what happened to her love.
After she went in, the others came in small groups.
Switzerland entered the warehouse las and it was quiet. He couldn't see anyone, except Sealand on top of a cargo box slumped over and kicked his legs against it a little. His sister stood right next to the little nation.
Graciously Switzerland asked Sealand a simple question, "Where's Austria?"
The little micronation expressed sadness and responded sadly too, "Why don't you go to his bed? He's been there for the past two days. Absolutely knocked out cold."
This sent chills down Switzerland's spine. Why didn't anyone tell me before I came in!
Liechtenstein tugged at her brother's jacket, "Brother, I'm scared." Fear and panic filled her face. Shocked from the bad news, "Hold on sis, give me a second." He ran to Hungary to tell her, unfortunately by the time he arrived she was on her knees next to Austria crying.
"Please Roderich wake up! Please!"
Her tears hit his face, but there was no reaction. He sleeped ever so beautifully, like a porcelain doll.
After she cried for a few minutes America gave her a hug. "Hungary, listen, did something like this happened before? We need to know as much as we can. We lost too many of our men."
She still sniffled a little, but was able to blow it off for now. "Well, while I took care of my daily tasks I heard a sudden crash. He limped over his chair where he was writing a letter."
One of England's eyebrows were raised. "That explains the letter from Austria'a story before." He was the only who spoke up, none of the other nations couldn't think of anything to say at that point.
"Anyhow when I saw him he was completely cold and unresponsive. I thought his heart stopped beating. But, when Prussia touched him, I felt Austria's heart beating faster and faster. At the time I thought it was kind of abnormal, but what happened to Prussia had more priority then anything else." Her hands were clenched on her lap. She felt completely useless.
Germany's piercing blue eyes met with Hungary's, "Elizeveta, I'm so sorry for right now, nevertheless we need to join our forces together to stop Prussia all together. In addition, the last thing we need to do is to persecute him for his crimes. I know my own brother, this is not him at all. Another presence has taken over his soul and mind. Yet, what does he still mean by a spell?"
She smiled a little, but the emotional drama took a major toll on her.
In order for her to have a moment of peace Greece, the only one, recommended very calmly, "Let's leave the two alone. Turkey, Sweden, could you two stand guard just in case?"
Those two nodded their heads in agreement. All of the other nations left and the two assumed their positions opposite of each other from the door.
"Man, I cannot believe this. I'm tired of this." Turkey slammed his sword against the outer wall of Austria's room.
He did it a few more times, until Sweden grabbed his sword. "Listen Turkey, we just need to take this one step at a time. You getting constantly aggravated doesn't help anyone. It intensifies Prussia's desires for us."
It was quiet until Germany came to check in on the two. "Hey! Mind if I stand guard here as well?"
Turkey was confused. "But what about our battle plan?"
Germany grinned and was able to ease Turkey's concern. "Don't worry Switzerland for right now will debrief all of our information currently."
"Phew."
All of a sudden a box full of tools was knocked over. Germany had his Mauser C96 on hand this time, "It's Gilbert. Come out!"
"Are you ever tired of being right brother?" Prussia slowly and independently walked out eagerly with that familiar smirk on his face.
Sweden had his viking sword from the old days grasped loosely, "So where are your subordinates?"
At any moment, Turkey was ready to strike that bastard head on.
"Don't worry about those losers. They're only pawns for my game." Prussia treaded ever so gracefully onto a crate.
The Mauser C96 had a bullet that was ready to be fired, "That is really despicable thinking Prussia."
All of a sudden Prussia kneeled down on the ground in pain, "Please Germany," Germany and the others were taken aback. "I need help. I don't know what this presence is." Then Prussia slightly screamed and held his chest tightly. "Whatever this is, please kill me if you must." He cried, "I know it's hard for you to your big brother cry, but I can't take this misery and guilt anymore."
A demonic voice took over and forced his body to contort slightly, "No! You are the key to make your world the way you want to. Do not let these mortals intrude on your goal. You are stronger than them." His body continued to contort and he grabbed his ears to filter out the noise. "Let the power consume you and it will guide you to complete satisfaction." He screamed, with an ear-piercing sound, "STOP!" As he struggled, "Do what you must to stop me!" A painful scream was the last thing.
Then Prussia stood up sulking, "Now, where was I?" He then proceeded to quickly, and silently, kick Sweden and Turkey in the stomach. With another hit to the stomach region, Turkey had a harder time getting up and he wheezed for air. In addition, the kick knocked out Sweden cold.
Then Prussia pinned Germany with a couple of knives, with his arms stretched out, up against a big wooden cargo box. It forced him to drop his gun. These knives were buried deeply and he couldn't move at all. Sweden looked up at Germany, who struggled greatly, "Germany, you take care of Prussia. Turkey and myself will go get the others. Protect Hungary and Austria at all cost ."
"Come on!" He moaned and was absolutely infuriated, "Ugh, if I can grab one of the knives!"
While Sweden helped carry Turkey, Germany pulled his arms to the front and side. After a couple of seconds he was able to get himself free and grabbed one of the knifes. When Germany started to run, time froze as he ran.
For the next five minutes, or rather if anyone could make sense of time anymore, a major event happened.
Prussia entered the room where Austria and Hungary were casually. "Well isn't this a treat?"
"Back off! Don't you get any closer to Austria." Hungary struggled to grab her sword and Prussia grabbed her arm.
"You might want to rethink about retaliating against me."
All of the noise caused Austria to wake up and when he saw Prussia grabbing Hungary and making threats towards her, he jumped out of his bed. "Let go of Hungary right now!"
He didn't realize that he was in a coma and a Glock was pulled out on Prussia (which he hid on himself for while). "If you do not let go of her, I will shoot you right where you stand."
Hungary tussled a little, but it didn't work. Prussia continued to mess with Austria's mind. "You can plea all you want, but the same concept applies to Germany, you won't pull the trigger."
The Austrian nation waved his Glock around, "I am sick and tired of your excuses. I promise to end this whole travesty right here and now."
All of this anger fueled Prussia's fire greater. "You keep on doing that Austria. Let your rage cloud your mind and judgment."
Hungary tried with all of her might to get out Prussia's grasp, but his hand was so tightly wrapped around her arm, he could break her arm from the shear force. He then proceeded to throw Hungary towards one of the walls and placed a forcefield around her. She went all out to break the forcefield, but her fists couldn't even manage to make a crack.
She failed multiple times and that made Prussia laugh, "Ha, well, isn't this a sad sight. Austria all mad and worked up over his girlfriend. What are you the hero? You think that you can save millions of people from me? You can't even begin to imagine the power I have been endowed with."
Austria's fingers were ready to pull the trigger, "Shut up! You really need to keep your mouth closed. So far you have murdered two innocent civilians and I am supposed to feel pity for you? With poor decision making skills, consequences are sure to follow."
Within a flash, Austria lurched forward to bunt the gun into Prussia's forehead. Unfortunately, Prussia retaliated with the needle injected it into Austria's chest.
With Hungary still in the forcefield, "What are you doing Prussia?"
Austria coughed incessantly, "I will not fall for your trick." His coughs produced blood, but this time it was black.
One more time he lurched again, without notice he dropped to the ground. His body twitched and a silver aura surrounded him.
"Elizeveta, I'm so sorry I'm not strong enough to be a leader. I believe that you can drive the others to beat Prussia and his comrades. Don't let him win. Save him."
With everything going in Prussia's advantage, he snapped his fingers. Another black portal appeared and France entered the room. France delivered the ultimatum by grabbing Austria and gave him another injection of the black blood in the exact same area.
All of the black blood made Austria hunch over a little. However, the scary part was the maniacal laugh he let out. A laugh so paralyzing, his eye color changed exactly into like Prussia's.
After he had his chuckle, "My my, I have quite a bit of work to do. Hungary, you little whore, and your stupid friends can't stop us. Ha ha ha."
They left through the same portal and the forcefield diminished. Before it closed, she stood up immediately to catch him. By the time she almost grabbed his hand, it closed on her. Frustrated she punched the wall and time went back to normal.
Finally Germany made it to the room, still with the knife in his hand, confused.
NO Austria! This is not looking good.
A few notes:
Sweden's viking sword is really gorgeous and (I think) can be seen in one of the comic strips with the Nordic Vikings.
The Mauser C96 is the gun that Germany uses in the anime (well, barely used at all), if you want to see it in action, check out the show Deadliest Warrior (Played on the Spike channel) with the episodes of the Nazi Waffen SS versus the Viet Cong. It's actually one of my favorite episodes of the series (check it out when you have a chance) and the weapon is just awesome looking.
The Glock to everyone is a standard weapon that everyday cops carry, but what's interesting is that it's origins are in Austria. Who would've known?
Ok the black blood concept I know, I know, (Soul Eater much) but this idea came to me because in the anime and comics (even with some exceptions) he acts very poised and gentlemen-like. The black blood will nullify his sense and he'll act like never before. Plus think about, if Prussia is able to create portals and forcefields, he is more than capable of creating black blood to make people go bat guano crazy!
Phew, long note this time. XDD
Thanks everyone! Please R&R! ^_^
