So this chapter may or may not be long so, like the last chapter, I'm going to keep this short. Like I said last chapter, this is probably the climax of the story. I am trying to make the countries part very short because I want to show off a certain event only in the continents POV. I don't want to spoil it so I'm just going to stop talking. I DO NOT OWN HETALIA OR THE CHARACTERS. ALL CREDIT GOES TO THE ORIGINAL OWNERS. THE ONLY THING I OWN ARE THE THINGS I CRATE. (the continents and oceans) Please enjoy!
(Country POV)
After the scare with the Red Eyes, the countries had put extra security measures at the monuments. The countries weren't at their monument though. They had called a real meeting in Paris the day after. They held it in Paris because France made them. The others really didn't care so they agreed.
"Ok, so what are going to do?" Russia asked.
"Those Red Eyes are up to something, but what is it?" Prussia said trying to think.
"Damn them!" Australia said," They think they can just waltz in here and destroy monuments and possibly kill hundreds of people!"
"I guess those people are relying on us to do something now…." Canada said.
"How in the world are you guys going to do that?" China asked.
"Well," Spain began," Maybe we can start with their base?"
"Their what?"
"Oh yeah, I forgot. We were supposed to tell you guys but because of this we couldn't. We, as in me, Italy, and Romano, found the Red Eyes' secret base in the mountains. We led Germany and Japan there and we were going to tell everyone else." Spain continued.
"We were supposed to get in contact with Mr. America and Mr. England but this happened," Japan told everyone.
"Well then," England started," if that's so, we need to go to that base immediately."
"He's right," Ukraine said," We need to go now! Oh and make sure Belarus and Russia are separated." She whispered that last sentence so Belarus couldn't hear her.
"Ok then," America started," To-"He was cut off by screams outside.
"Oh great, what now?" Australia said looking out the window. He noticed the danger immediately but before he could speak France's boss ran through the door.
"The Red Eyes" his boss panted," It's today! The Eiffel Tower!"
"He's not lying! Look!" Australia pointed out the window. Sure enough there was red smoke from the top of the monument.
"The guards on top randomly popped up at the bottom. They said the Red Eyes were there and teleported them down. We tried to get up there but they created some kind of barrier to prevent us from getting in!" France's boss panted again.
"What!? Now!? I know they said possible tomorrow, but really!?" England frantically said.
"We need to go there now!" France said running out the room. The others followed without question. When they arrived, they saw a huge crowd gathered around it. Police were struggling to keep the crowd away. The countries were allowed access through the police barrier.
"What are they doing?!" France said.
"The monitor shows what the helicopter sees," one of the officers said.
"They're setting it up right now; they say there's another person who is not a Red Eye up there fighting them and winning." The monitor lit up. They were right, there was a man fighting them, but the countries were surprised to see the resemblance between him and America.
"Is it just me or does he look like America?" China said in amazement.
"No, it's not just you," England said shocked.
"Oh great, now there's two people that look like me…." America sighed.
"What are they doing now?" Australia asked. They weren't fighting now, they were talking. The next thing that happened was something the countries will never forget. One of them started levitating in mid air and then…
(Continent POV)
It was 9 in the morning when all the continents woke up. They sat in silence for the entirety of breakfast. They were all too nervous to talk. Finally Europe broke the silence.
"Ok, since the "plan" isn't happening until sunset, what should we do till then?"
"Like what?" Asia asked curiously.
"Sight seeing?" Europe suggested.
"Sure let's see the things they are about to blow up…" North America trailed off. Europe didn't say anything. She knew this had been a hard time for him, it was best not to say anything. The next few hours went by slowly and awkwardly. They barely talked and when they did they were between only two of them and the conversation was them whispering.
"Ok guys," Europe said in the loudest tone they've heard all day. She wasn't even yelling she was just regularly talking," We need to leave now. It's about sun set there." All the continents gathered around her and she apparated them to an alleyway. They walked out to see the streets of Paris full of joyful people. They were blissfully unaware of the upcoming attack. The continents made their way through the crowd to the Eiffel Tower. They stopped in front of it and looked up at the top.
"There it is," Europe said," Are you ready?"
"More than I'll ever be…." North America responded.
"Stay here," Europe told the others," I'll be right back." The others just stood there, looking at the top. They wished North America luck before he left. Europe took him to an alley way and said something before he teleported away.
"Remember the plan…"
"I will, don't worry."
"Ok, just be careful."
"I will." Europe then apparated him to his location. She walked back to the others who all looked sick. She joined them and looked up again.
"Please work…." she thought to herself.
North America felt his feet touch the ground when he arrived on the stairwell. He did as he was told and waited for the Red Eyes to arrive. He peered out the window of the door to see two police officers standing guard. He waited, nervous minutes passed. Then it happened. He heard a noise of something touch the ground. He looked out the window to see the Red Eyes standing there.
"Who are you!?" the guards asked. He saw one of the Red Eyes teleport them somewhere. He hoped it was the ground. Then one of the members shot a column of smoke in the air with a bang. He knew that the people were watching. Now was his chance. He stepped up to the door and pushed it open arriving on the top. The Red Eyes noticed him immediately.
"Ah, right on cue," one of them said.
"Where's she!" North America said angrily.
"Right here," another one said pointing to a hooded member standing there," We have her under mind control. The only way we'll give her back is if you fight us and win."
"And if I lose?"
"You die." North America looked scared now. He knew if he died the two countries will spontaneously be in serious pain. He thought to himself. Then North America spoke.
"Deal!" He knew if Europe was here she'd kill him herself. However, she wasn't there. She was on the ground with the other continents and people looking up in fear.
"You're a brave one," one of them said," Well since this is your death wish, we have something to say."
"What?"
"You know Ocean, right. A friend of your mother's."
"Yeah, why?"
"Well when she died and the continents started to drift, other oceans were created. They were us."
"Wait, your oceans!?"
"Yep. The 5 and only oceans." They then went up and said their ocean and human name.
"Why did you kidnap my sister then and spy on our meetings?"
"Hey now, enough with the questions. We and you have a deal now. Let's see who wins and then we'll speak."
"Fine," North America said drawing his weapons.
"Ok then, guys let's do this!" All of them, including Antarctica, started to fight. Somehow North America was able to dodge projectiles from Arctic and Antarctica. He started by shooting, but they were able to defect and counter the bullets. He decided to use the swords instead. One of them, which he remembered his name to be Atlantic, was throwing punches and kicks like crazy. Unfortunately for him, he kept missing. The others were doing random things that rarely hit. He was trying to hit one of them with the sword with no luck until one of them came running up and he brushed them slightly on the arm. It was enough to show blood though. He kept fighting and honestly it looked like he was winning. Then something unexpected happened. The Red Eyes must have known they were losing. Why? Well they stopped the fight.
"Stop!" Atlantic yelled," I have an idea…"
"W-what?" North America and the other oceans looked confused and exhausted.
"Dude, what are you doing?!" Pacific yelled as he made Antarctica levitate off the edge of the platform," That's not part of the plan!" North America knew what was happening. He was mortified.
"I know," Atlantic said," It's called winning." He went over and touched Antarctica's forehead. She was free from mind control. However, when you are freed from mind control, you faint. As soon as she was freed from mind control, she fell. She was falling straight for the ground, to her death. The next thing North America did was what Europe would call "The most reckless thing ever done." He didn't know what made him do it, it was an instinct. When she started to fall he ran to the edge of the platform past all the Red Eyes and jumped. He was falling to the ground as well. He looked down to see all the people terrified and then he saw the countries staring in shock some even looked on the verge of fainting. Then he saw the continents freaking out. He knew Europe would be furious with him now, but he didn't care in the slightest. He had to get to his sister. North America knew somehow Europe would be able to figure out a way. Then he remembered something. He did the signal mid air for them to apparate out of there. Europe seemed to know.
"What the hell!? You idiot!" Oceania was screaming at him even though he knew North America couldn't hear him. Europe saw him do the signal.
"That's it!" she exclaimed," Come on we need to get in within 20 feet of them!" The others knew what she meant. They started to run through the crowd. They ran to the police barrier and went around it. They didn't care that the countries would see them. They had to save North America and Antarctica, for the countries and their sake.
He was so close. North America was inches away from his sister and coming close to the ground. He saw the continents run through the barrier and the police and countries trying to stop them. He reached out an arm a grabbed Antarctica's. He grabbed her so she wouldn't hit the ground first and then….
Europe saw him grab Antarctica she heard the countries yelling," What the hell are you doing?! This is off limits!" For once she didn't care about the "rules". She yelled "Apparition" as soon as North America reached his sister. Her timing couldn't have been better. Right before they hit the ground they disappeared. All 8 of them disappeared out of sight. The countries were shocked and confused.
(Back to Country POV)
"What the bloody hell was that!?" England said stopping when the continents, or mystery people since they don't know they exist, teleported away.
"It looked like magic," America said catching up to him.
"I know that, but what happened!"
"The monitor showed the Red Eyes teleporting away as well," France said," They left after those people did."
"Is there any way to get audio of their conversation before the fell?"
"No, the helicopter was too far away."
"This is so weird," Australia said walking up," You know how the one that fell looked like America."
"Yeah, why?"
"One of the ones that was on the ground looked like me. Another one looked like Japan and China. Another one looked like the Nordics, England, France, and Germany. My point is they all looked like a mixture between the countries. All of them really reserved to the countries in the same continent."
"Hey England, can't you use that magic stuff to see who did this?"America asked.
"No, there was a barrier and that deflect magic remains."
"Damn it," Romano said," We were this close then, NOPE!"
"Calm down, fratello," Italy said.
"Whatever this is it isn't good…"
(Back to Continent POV)
All 8 of them went tumbling into Europe's house. Antarctica was still with North America.
"You- you" Europe began" I don't even know. That was so reckless, but if you didn't do it she'd be dead! I honestly don't know anymore…"
"Is she ok?" Asia asked going over to Antarctica.
"She's fine," Europe said getting to her feet," It takes about a day to wake up after being released from mind control."
"Hey dude, are you ok?"
"Huh, oh yeah. I'm fine." North America said.
"Now what?" Central America asked.
"We can't stay here," Europe said," They know where I live and possibly where you all live. They might try and take her again. We need to move somewhere until it's safe to return."
"So where do we go to?" South America asked.
"Anywhere but here….." They then left the house. North America had to carry his sister since she's not conscious. They didn't know anything anymore. However, they did know one thing. No continent nor country was safe.
DUN DUN DUN! Yep that was an interesting chapter. Funny enough this whole fanfiction came to be because of this one event. I used to think of some awesome scene where someone jumps off something confronting death for a family member. The problem was I didn't have characters to use it with. I ended up reading some Hetalia continent fanfictions and was inspired. Now that children is how a story is made! Or at least in some cases. Anyway see you for chapter 13! Oh and I should also mention that next chapter will be just country POV.
