Yay Chapter twenty one is up! Enjoy!^^
A few weeks later everyone but Lunetta was discharged for the hospital
"I'm curious why hasn't Lunetta been discharged yet?" Nikolai asked one day when he went to visit her with Wolfgang
"My parents said that it's because she's the embodiment of the city. Most of the city went up in flames so she feels the affects from it more than mein mutter or Onkel. But mein Onkel fells it more than mein mutter because Rome used to be his city when they were two separate countries." Wolfgang explained
"Then why was the city of Rome born to North Italy and not to the South?" he Russian asked confused
"That we don't know. Romano thinks it's because our great grandfather the Roman Empire like North Italy more but Luna keeps asking the same question. That's why she mostly stays in Madrid with Lovino and Antonio. Gilbert wants her to live with him but the choice is always hers." The blonde answered
"But why? I mean you and Marcello stay with your parents but why doesn't she?" Nikolai pressed
"Because they both know she won't listen. Lunetta is strange. I act more like Germany except for the fact I hate training and would rather run from a fight instead of fighting back like Italy.
"Marcello is the perfect mix of both of our parents. Then Lunetta, well we really don't know where her personality came from. She' like Germany in the way she trains 24/7 and has to keep everything clean, She's like Italy in the way she loves art and cooking, but the rest of her is completely her own.
"Another reason she's not forced to live in one place is because your father still technically owns her as a Russian territory so really if she wanted to she could go live with him anytime that she wanted to." Wolfgang told him as they reached the Italian girl's room only to find that she wasn't there.
After asking the nurses and coming up empty the boys returned to the room to find the window open
"Did she climb out the window?" Nikolai asked
"We're on the sixth floor!" Wolfgang stated as he also looked out the window
"Yeah but that tree goes up to the eighth floor and the branch looks like it might hold her weight." Nikola told him as he headed for the elevator.
"Where are you going?" Wolfgang asked
"To find your sister. You might want to call your parents and tell them she snuck out of her hospital room." The Russian told the German as they entered the elevator.
Once outside Wolfgang called his parents and Nikolai headed for the part of the city that had burned
"Now where are you going?!" the blonde asked as he caught up to the taller teen
"Simple if she feels the effects of the fire more than your uncle or your mother then of course she would want to see the aftermath for herself." Nikolai explained as they neared the scene.
Sure enough there was Lunetta walking around barefoot through the wreckage dressed only in a pair of cotton pants and a button up sleeper shirt. She looked lost in the way she just seemed to sort of wander aimlessly through the burnt streets.
Wolfgang called his parents back to tell them that they had found the missing girl while Nikolai walked over to her and got her attention
"Luna look at me." He all but whispered. But it was enough as she turned her wide blue gaze to meet his mismatched one
"It hurts Nikolai and I don't know how to ease the pain." She whimpered turning back to the charred remains of the city block where they stood
"I thought that if I saw it with my own eyes it wouldn't hurt as much but it's still the same. I still feel the throbbing in my heart and I just want it to go away!" she cried before breaking down into tears in his strong arms.
Once she calmed down Nikolai picked her up bridal style and carried her over to her twin brother who had found her cross necklace in the rubble
"I believe this belongs to you." He told her handing over the pendant that Germany had given her when she had turned five
"I thought that I had lost this!" she said happily as Nikolai passed her over and they returned to the hospital.
When they returned Lunetta stole her brother's cell phone and kicked the guys out of her room before hitting speed dial three
"Hey Gwen you up for a little getaway?" she asked when the blonde answered
"Lunetta what are you talking about?" her friend wondered
"Simple you, me, Alice, and we can see if maybe Hera, my aunt, and a few other female countries want to on a vacation together." Lunetta explained
"Fine I'll ask my parents and see if Alice wants to go. But aren't you still in the hospital?" Guinevere asked
"Easy fix once I hang up the phone. I'll call you back with the details and too see of you can come." The Italian told her before hanging up and calling a few more people.
In the end Lunetta was only able to get Alice, Guinevere, and Hera to go with her since everyone else was busy. After stealing Nikolai's shirt and her brother's pants, Lunetta then discharged herself and headed home to pack.
When their daughter walked in both Germany and Italy were speechless
"Lunetta you should be in the hospital!" Italy told her
"I'm fine and can't stand being in that place." She replied as she went up the stairs to her room
"Wolfgang what happened to your pants and why isn't Nikolai wearing a shirt?" Marcello asked staring at his older brother
"Luna stole them along with mein phone." He answered as Lunetta threw the clothes back at the boys
"I only needed the clothes because I didn't have any there and I took your phone because mine was destroyed in the fire and Vater won't get me a new one." The Italian girl explained handing over the phone
"I'll be gone for a few days maybe even a few weeks. If any of you need to contact me don't. I really just need time to myself." She said as she walked out the door.
"Lunetta where are you going?!" Ludwig demanded as he chased down his daughter
"I need to get away papa so I'm going on vacation with Gwen, Alice, and Hera to a nice quite island for some much needed relaxation. The hotel we're staying at is owned by China and America and is very private and has one of the best spas around.
"I need this papa. I'm tired of being surrounded by men all of the time and after that fire everyone treats me like I could break any second and you having me on suicide watch didn't help matters!
"So until the time I decide that everything is fine in my own life I won't be back. Ich liebe dich papa but I just simply need to be alone with my own thoughts right now." She told him as he pulled her into his arms
"I love you too and take as much time as you need just remember to come home." He sighed as she kissed his cheek and ran off towards the airport.
