I... am back with an all new chapter of Hetalia no Kaizoku! I wrote most of this at 3 in the morning, so be grateful, loves!
I don't own Hetalia! Now Read and Review like the wonderful people I know y'all to be!
When Antonio, Arthur, Ivan, Ludwig, Feliciano, Kiku, Yao, Natalia, Toris, and Alfred reached their destination, lots of people where happy. Alfred was practically glomped by Matthew, Francis sighed gratefully, Lovino discreetly looked Antonio over for any wounds. He was very happy when he discovered the Spanish pirate was perfectly okay, but he wouldn't show it. Yao and Wong Soo leaped on the Japanese pirate, who threatened them with his katana if they ever did that again. Eduard, Raivis, and Feliks pretty much jumped on Toris, who nearly died because of this action. Katyusha and Natalia latched themselves on their brother, who sighed and his sisters' wierdness. Gilbert immediately checked on his baby brother, who was slightly embarassed at the attention. Elizaveta and Roderich looked over Feliciano, glad that no harm had come to him.
"I'm glad to see the Kiku-and-Alfred-beat-up-Sadiq-and-his-gang plan went well." Elizaveta stated.
"Of course it went well!" Alfred shouted, "I'm the hero after all!"
"You git!" Arthur looked like he was going to kill Alfred, "Do I need to remind you that you were the one who was kidnapped in the first place?"
"HAHAHAHAHAHA! Silly Artie, that's all in the past! As a hero, no as a human, I look foward to the future instead of dwelling in the past! Who cares who was kidnapped? I was still the hero!"
Arthur sighed, "Whatever you say, git."
"Why are you always trying to down me?" Alfred asked.
"What?" Arthur was taken aback, "I don't TRY to. It just happens. You can't blame me for speaking my mind, can you?"
"If it hurts my feelings, I can." The American replied without hesitation.
"Oh, mon lapin, leave poor Alfred alone." Francis laughed amused, "It's not his fault he was caught. I'm sure he did not want that to happen, but there are somethings people just can't help."
"Shove off, frog." The Brit huffed, "If we wanted your bloody opinion we would have asked for it."
"I can add my two cents whenever I feel like it, my lovely Brit."
The Englishman blushed bright red, "E-Eh? What did you just call me?"
"Are you perhaps going deaf, mon lapin?" The Frenchman smiled charmingly, "I called you my lovely Brit."
"Bugger off, you bloody wanker!" Arthur's face burned red, "Don't give me such stupid pet names! It makes it seem like- like- Just don't do it!"
"Oh?" Francis raised an eyebrow, "Why? What does it seem to imply, mon cher?"
"I see no reason to tell you, you bloody nancy!"
Ah, your cruel words hurt my poor heart, mon ange." Francis put a hand over his heart for emphasis.
"How many times do I have to bloody tell you that I can't speak your froggy language?"
"I'm standing right in front of you, rosbif, so there is no need to yell at moi."
"I'll yell as much as I like."
"Oh? So, you don't feel like yelling anymore? What a quick change of heart."
"What are you talking about, frog?"
"You're not yelling anymore, ma douce."
... "Shut up!" Arthur barked.
"It seems there is never a dull moment with a tsundere around." Kiku smiled slightly.
"Tsundere?" Feliciano repeated.
"Hai." Kiku nodded, "A tsundere is a character such as your brother or Arthur."
"Don't say character." Lovino huffed, "It makes it sound as though we're in a story or something."
... You ARE in a story or something Lovi. You're in manga, anime, doujinshi, and fanfiction... All of you are... Anyway~
"Eto, perhaps we are in a story, Lovino-kun. How would we know?"
"You think too much."
"You would do well to think a little more."
"What do you mean by that?"
"I mean no offence, Lovino-kun."
"Don't apologize, I'm trying to be mad at you."
"Ah... I see. My apologize."
The tsundere Italian opened his mouth to snap back but sighed instead, "Whatever."
"Lovi is so forgiving~" Antonio cooed.
At this comment, Lovino turned bright red, "Shut up, stronzo! Nobody asked your opinion!"
"Eh? Did I say something wrong? I only told the truth. You ARE forgiving. And cute. And tsundere. Te amo!"
"Haven't I told you a million times. Not. In. Public?" Lovino barked.
"Lo siento!" Antonio began to fret, "But I can't help it, Lovi, mi amor. It just seems that the words want to be said, and they just come out on their own! On the bright side, the words are ALWAYS true~"
"I-Idiot!" Lovino blushed brightly as Antonio kissed him on the cheek, "Futtiti!"
Antonio grinned smugly, "Oh? You want to? Really? Well, I'm more than willing to oblige~"
"Maldito bastardo!" Lovino was envied by the reddest tomatoes all around the world at this point.
"E-Eto, Antonio-san, I believe you should stop teasing Lovino-kun." Kiku frowned, "That shade of red does not look healthy."
The Spaniard looked his lover over and agreed, "Sí, you're right, but I can't help that Lovi is so easily embarassed and easy to tease."
Feliciano smiled 'watching' over the scene. Wheather or not Lovino had wanted to believe it, he had gained lots of friends. They both had. Of course, Feliciano was popluar to begin with, but it seemed people didn't really like Lovino because of his cold attitude... If only they got to know him better, like the pirates.
Ludwig looked over at the Italian beside him. What was the story with Feli and Vash? The German was curious, and that was a very rare thing. Should he ask directly? Should he wait for Feli to tell him? Should he ask someone else about it? Should he just ignore the whole thing? Decisions. Decisions.
Well, Ludwig quickly made him decision. He turned to face the friendlier Italian, "Hey, um, Feliciano?"
Felciano, with a cheerful smile, turned to the German, "Hmm?"
"Ah, well..." Ludwig trailed off. Maybe this wasn't such a good idea. Even as this thought crossed his mind, he tried again, "I-It's just I was wondering, um, if you'd, well, ah..."
"You want to know how Vash and I know each other, right?" The Italian's smile dropped for half a second before coming back full blast.
"I-It's just-"
"I can't blame you for being curious." Feliciano interupted, "After all, you're not the only who's been wondering." he paused, "I'll share my story with you on one condition."
"What's that?" Ludwig blinked.
"Don't tell Lovino anything that I'm about to tell you." Feliciano replied with a look that would make the devil himself retreat with his tail between his legs.
"O-okay." Ludwig nodded.
"Vash and I met when I wandered into Switzerland once. I accidently trespassed on his territory, and he treatened to kill me if I didn't leave quick enough." The usually friendly Italian began, "Appearently, I didn't meet his standards of quick, so he shot at me. His sister saved my life. She ran into the yard and told him to stop. Vash will do anything his sister asks of him." he paused, "Anyway, she let me stay for lunch a an apology." he giggled a bit, "Not a good first impression on his part, but his sister was nice, so I stayed. The food was good, too. We talked through lunch, and Vash and I seemed to get along well. I was invited to go the next weekend, so I went. The food was okay, and the people were nice. Eventually, I began to stay longer than one or two days. I would stay three or four. Once I even stayed for five." he paused to think, "He was a mercenary at the time, and I was a little Italian boy with too much time on my hands, but sooner or later we developed feelings for each other. Lovi had no idea where I was going, but he didn't seem to care, even now he's never brought it up. I guess that's beside the point. In the end... The last time I went to their house, they weren't there, but there was a note."
"A note?" Ludwig repeated. Well, that was better than leaving nothing...
"Mh." Feliciano nodded, "I even remember what it said." he paused, "Dear Feli, if you have found this note, it means Lilly and I are gone. I was offered a job that I couldn't refuse. I had to take Lilly with me. You and I are just friends now. I hope you'll find someway to forgive me. I just didn't want you to be used against me. I'd hate to see you hurt. Love always, Vash." he sighed, "And that was that. In such a short time someone I loved disappeared without any sort of warning. I didn't know what he meant or what job it was, but now I do." he looked directly at Ludwig, "Of course, now our feelings for each other have changed. I don't think he was expecting me to have found someone else though..."
The German bit his bottom lip, "Be honest with me Feli." he paused, "Would you rather be with me or with him?"
The Italian looked thoughtful for half a second before quickly responding, "You."
Ludwig seemed surprised by his lover's reply, "R-Really?"
"Certamente!" Feliciano nodded, "I've moved on Ludwig. I don't see the point in trying to hold on to past feelings. That was then, and this is now. Plus, Vash was always a little trigger-happy..."
"Wise words coming from someone like you, lieben." Ludwig chuckled.
Feliciano tilted his head to the side, "Is... Was that an insult?"
"Think of it as a compliment, liebe." The German replied.
Feliciano smiled bright, "Okay~"
"Feli, stop talking with the squiggley things!"
"Sorry, Lovi~~~~"
"Shut up..."
The nicer Italian giggled as Lovino scoffed and went back to his 'conversation' with Antonio. Feli looked at Ludwig, "I don't really know hat Lovi means by squiggley things, but I think when I apologize he gets angrier."
"I think your brother is insane." Ludwig coughed.
"Oh, Luddi, Lovi isn't insane~ He's just..." Feliciano paused, "sociallly awkward?"
"That's one way to put it." The German sighed.
Kiku was conversing with the other other Asians. Yao yawned, and Wong Soo looked around boredly.
"There's nothing to talk about or do~" Wong Soo whined.
"There's nothing even remotely cute here either." Yao sighed.
"Eto," Kiku paused. What could he say to make his brothers not as bored? To make them stop complaining? The Japanese pirate looked around, and frowned. At this point, there was nothing he could do. So, he had two options. Either he could stay and listen to them whine and complain, or he could talk with someone else who wouldn't gripe. He didn't like either option. Honestly, he felt like yelling at his brothers. He tapped his foot impatiently while the cmplaining continued, "E-Eto, perhaps it would help if you two weren't complaining. i'm sure there is something we could talk about." he silently added, "Perhaps." Louder his continued, "w-We won't know if there is though unless the two of you stop complaining." It didn't stop. Kiku's eye twitched, "Y-Yao-san, Wong Soo-san, please lower your voices." They became louder. Kiku's eye twitched twice, "E-Eto..." There was no other choice. The Japanese man pulled out his katana and barely missed his brothers in one swifted movement.
Yao and Wong Soo looked at Kiku shocked, "K-Kiku?"
"Quit complaining, or I will kill you both right here and now." Kiku breathed.
"S-Sorry!" The Chinese and Korean pirates squeaked timidly. The Japanese brother really knew how to get them to shut up. If only he would lose his temper more often...
And there you have it. Mainly written at 3 in the morning. I was fulled on and McFlurries and cookies.
