:) Chapter fourteen is finally out, sorry everyone I thought I already put this chapter out.
Chapter Fourteen
I watched as they made their way towards the house not bothering to look up meaning the others had done as I said. Good! Ivan walked ahead of them as if expecting something to happen which meant the allies knew where they were or at least what remained of the allied powers. That also gave us the advantage since they weren't expecting us to be here. I turned away from the window and quietly walked out of the room to go find some of the others. I'll make sure Ivan doesn't get to the door.
-X-
I managed to find them without being spotted and told them who to go after before taking my place near the door. I waited in the old room I had somehow grown attached to since discovering some of its hidden secrets. I heard creaking and glanced down the hallway to notice a rather tall figuring walking towards me but I knew that he couldn't see me. He stopped in front of the door with the long scratches engraved on it hiding the windows. I watched as he tried to open the door and got rather mad when he couldn't, he was so busy hitting it and trying to get it open that he didn't see me lean against the wall near a long window in front of the door.
"To bad you can't get it open Ivan." I whispered making him jump and turn to me my brown eyes meeting a bright purple.
"How did you get out?"
I pretended like I didn't hear him, "You'll never get in there."
"Oh and why not?"
"Because I'll make sure you don't." I glared making him flinch.
"You'll make sure?" He said laughing. "How?"
"The same way that I'll ensure both sides won't end up destroying each other love." I whispered walking around him like a predator stalking its prey, "You'll be surprised by what I can do when I want to keep something horrible from happening again."
"Kiku open the door."
"Mmm…No." I smirked when he narrowed his eyes.
"Whose side are you on Kiku?"
"Mine." I replied laughing quietly and creepily, "I refuse to take one of the two existing sides so I created a third, the true axis I suppose, I have some rather interesting allies."
"Like Germany, Italy, Spain, France and Prussia?" He laughed mockingly, "You're all to funny Kiku dear."
"Not just them Russia." I glared as we started circling each other and the sounds of battle soon broke out downstairs as I expected, "The Baltic's and Belarus are helping me as well."
"Belarus!"
"Yes Belarus is helping me, she's tire of this forsaken war as well."
"Kiku listen to me she will only betray you."
"Why should I listen to you?" I asked smirking evilly, "You're the one that was going to lock us in the library while you made your way here to destroy the stained glass windows that tell the story I told you about just so you can bring us back to tell us that it was all in our heads. You knew the allies would find you here and this was going to be the last stand where you would have made my nightmare a reality. Tell me if I'm wrong Russia because I know you all too well."
His mischievous glare was even smiling, "You're very clever Kiku but not clever enough now open the door like a good boy."
"No." I mischievously answered making him anxious, "No one is getting in there as long as I hold the key to it."
"Hand over the key."
"I purposefully lost it Russia to make sure you never got in there to destroy the only memory this world has of the last."
"It will be for the better Kiku."
"No it won't." I hissed, "How will repeating the past solve anything! I refuse to allow anyone destroy the world we live in for the sake of jealousy."
"Kiku." He said seriously holding out his hand, "I don't want to have to fight you."
"Well it looks like it'll come down to that anyway so why not start?"
"Kiku they're all tied up." Someone said.
I looked down the corridor to see Belarus standing there smiling at me and glaring at Ivan. That was new.
"Kiku listen to me you have to put more trust in me than her now give me the key."
"What about China?" I asked her.
"Locked in one of the rooms." She smiled. "Do you want me to get the others?"
"Yes that will be great thank you Belarus."
"Kiku listen to me!" Ivan yelled drawing both of our attention, "She is only going to betray you Kiku! She is working with the allies; she'll come back up here with Alfred and Arthur not the others."
"You'd think if she was going to betray me she would have already done it." I replied yawning like I was board, "She let me drive us here, she gave me the keys to her car, she helped me and the others get here before you, and she made sure to help the others ambush you guys."
He was staring at me wide-eyed, "Kiku you can't trust her like that."
I looked past him as she left and somehow I doubted what he was telling me but at the same time I had a feeling that told me he wasn't entirely lying.
"I'll trust who I please Ivan." I said backing away using the darkness around us to hide, "If I have to fight all of you by myself in order to prevent the past from reoccurring then I will do just that."
He turned and glared down the hall as Belarus returned smirking at him as I realized that I did the right thing by hiding. He was right she came back with Alfred and Arthur but she looked more than pissed off as she side glanced at them.
"I brought you here now you will let Ukraine go." She hissed.
"Very well." Arthur said motioning to Alfred to let Ukraine go.
I watched as he released his grip on Ivan's other sister and Belarus immediately ran to her to make sure she was alright.
"Where's Kiku Russia?" Alfred asked.
"Not here."
I looked at him in shock, he was still protecting me even though they could threaten to harm both Belarus and Ukraine and despite me saying that I would take him down if that is what it took to succeed in my plans.
"I have my doubts that Belarus would lie to us and risk Ukraine's life." Alfred smirked.
I watched as Ivan narrowed his eyes, "Like I would tell you where he is."
"Doesn't matter we'll get rid of that stupid story beyond that door." Arthur interrupted.
I smirked as I watched Ivan step away to allow them to attempt they side glanced at him as they both tried to open the door. I had to suppress a laugh when the struggled to try and bust it down.
"Where's the key!" The both shouted.
"Don't know Kiku wouldn't give it to me before he left and now I don't know where he is either."
He was only half right, he knew I was hiding in the darkness created by the shadows but he didn't know exactly where. I quietly made my way back to the room and opened the window; I had to get out of here before any of them found me. To my horror the window opened with a loud screech causing me to look back as I stood on the ledge. All three of them came bursting through the door making me smiled as moonlight glittered into the room from behind me as I remained standing in the window sill. I was amazed even more by how big the window was, I was standing straight and I still couldn't reach the top of it.
"Kiku come here and give us the key." Arthur chimed trying desperately to keep me where I was.
I watched as Alfred started moving around trying to position himself so he could grab me if jumped.
"Well it's been fun but I'm afraid that you'll never be able to get into that room as long as I'm alive and if I have to fight all three of you to ensure that happens than don't think for a minute that I won't do it." I smiled.
"Kiku!" Arthur yelled.
"I'll meet you in the forest, this ends tonight." I glared as I let my body fall back out of the window.
Wind surrounded me and I glanced next to me to see the darker me grab my hand and close his eyes. I did the same knowing the landing wouldn't kill me especially with the bushes below. I hit the ground hard and managed to get up to see the path towards the tree. Something was pulling me towards it. I looked up to see Ivan sigh in relief, Arthur glare and Alfred punch the side of the window hurting himself no doubt. I smiled and ran down the path. It won't be long.
