Chapter 14

Trapped in a Hat part 2!

Seychelles stared at the hat that just appeared in her room. Who sent it in here? Seychelles recognized the hat as England's, but he already went home for the Christmas holidays and Seychelles didn't feel like going all the way there to return a hat to him.

She laid the hat down on her bed and continued packing her bags. She was the only one left at the academy. Seychelles wanted to go back to her native island and celebrate Christmas and New Year's with her citizens.

Seychelles picked up the hat again and examined it. If she was quiet enough, she thought she heard a tiny little voice. Nah, it was nothing. Suddenly, the hairs on her neck stood up and a she broke into a cold sweat. The door opened and Russia peered in. "Ah, Sey~ What are you still doing here?"

"I had to do a few more extra credit assignments in Economics. Now, I was about to leave. What are you still doing here, Russia?"

Russia?! Eep!

Ok, Seychelles was sure she heard that. Something weird was going on with that hat. Russia looked down at her hands as she put the hat behind her back. "Did you hear something, Sey?"

"Nope! Nothing at all! Uh-?" Seychelles was getting flustered. She really didn't want to keep lying to Russia.

Russia smiled, "Ok. Tell me if you find a hat, da."

"Sure, Russia! Uh, Merry Christmas."

"Merry Christmas to you too, Sey~"

When Russia left her room, Seychelles sighed a breath of relief and and slid down on the floor. She picked up the hat and peered and inside. Inside, there was a tiny slip of paper.

Martha Davis

"Huh? That's weird." Seychelles put the slip of paper back in the hat then she heard a tiny voice saying no. Did that piece of paper just tell her no? "I need to get home. I'm going crazy." Seychelles muttered, "It's probably from being used by England all semester that I've finally cracked."

You're not crazy at all! Don't you know me?!

Seychelles was getting more freaked out. Why was the piece of paper talking?! "Uh, I don't. Sorry?"

I'm Martha! Didn't any of the countries, like Spain, England, or Romania mention me at all? They crashed at my house for a few months!

"Oh! You're the girl they have been staying with? What are you doing in there?"

I have no flipping idea! It sounds like that bastard Russia summoned me! Look, I gotta find a way home! Can you help me out, Seychelles?

"I can try, Martha. Um, I take it you don't want Russia to know?"

Hell to the no! Just stuff me in your suitcase and get me outta here! Russia is gonna freaking kill me when I get out of this hat! Martha sighed in defeat. I really wish I had Sadie with me.

"I'm sorry. Look, what do you need me to do?" Seychelles asked frantically.

If you don't mind, I'd like a flight back to the United States. That would make my day!

"Uh, I'll see what I can do, Martha."

*(Oklahoma)*

Liam was getting bored. He wished…that girl…was here. Wait, what was her name? Martin?

America came into the basement and sat down next to Liam. His memory was in a fuddle. It was getting harder to remember America. He still knew his Grandma Martha, but there was another girl too…

Marble?

Minnie?

Mater?

"Um, America," Liam held the side of his head. It was beginning to pound heavily. "What was that girl's name?"

"What girl?"

"M-Marble? No, I can't remember. It started with a 'M'."

America laughed and ruffled Liam's hair. "You mean Martha? Dude, that's your sister! How can you forget your own sister?"

Liam laughed nervously. "Yeah, um, I'm just out of it. Of course I have a sister..." Why did he blank out like that? He had a sister named Martha, but he couldn't remember a single detail about her.

"Is Martha here now?" Liam asked.

"Yeah, she's in her room. Actually, we are about to go Christmas shopping. I'll see ya later, bro." America stood up and went upstairs into the living room leaving a confused Liam. He still wasn't sure about Martha. Why couldn't he remember her?

Something must be wrong...

*( World Academy)*

All the flights are cancelled? Stupid blizzards! B-But tomorrow is Christmas Eve! Seychelles, use your nation powers to get me home!

"I'm so sorry, Martha. Apprently, there is a huge blizzard in Oklahoma. Looks like we can stay in my dorm until we can figure out another way for you to get home..." Seychelles said as she scanned her room. She really wanted to go home, but Martha couldn't be by herself. She needed to be with someone until she got out of the hat.

Seychelles, go home! Just leave me here or something. I'm sure you want to be home with your citizens, right?

"It's fine. Once you get out of that hat we can make more plans." Seychelles yawned and took down her two pigtails, letting her long brown hair flow down her back.

Can I at least call America and tell him I'm here? My grandma and little brother are worried sick! By the way, where is the World Academy located?

"The school moves around a lot. This year it's in California. Next year, I think it'll be Japan."

Martha couldn't help but laugh. She never knew that the school was here in America. Then America should have no problem getting to her! But, she had to figure out who summoned her. Of course, Russia had something to do with it, but he couldn't do magic. Only England and Romania could. When she got out of this hat, she would have a look around the academy.

Since she was trapped inside the hat, Martha couldn't see anything. She could hear voices and that was it. Right now, she was in a infinite black space. Martha curled up in a ball and hugged herself. It was so cold and she wished for her little brother and grandma to be here. Actually, she was a bit scared. Martha didn't know how the countries could take being trapped in that hat for so long.

Martha dozed off and she berated herself for dreaming about Spain and her having a happy ending. Her blissful sleep didn't last long because she felt someone pick up the hat. Was it morning already? If it was Martha should've been out of the hat by now.

"Kolkolkol, I got you now~" Russia laughed.

Martha's eyes widened. She tried calling for Seychelles, but no one came. They must already be out of the dorm room.

Russia, let's talk about this...I didn't mean to swing Sadie at you. Come on, let's be friends!

"No, to late for that now. You are coming with me. We'll finish what you started, da?"

Martha gulped. Her and Russia were going to fight again? She didn't even have Sadie with her. Martha hoped Seychelles would find her soon and call America.

Spending Christmas with Russia was not part of her plans.

A/N: Next chapter will be a million times better! I promise! And there will be another plot twist...that I'm sure some of you guys will see coming or maybe not. Either way, I hope you enjoyed.

I apologize for the suckish chapter D: Now, off to do my math homework -.-
