Nico: Hi again.

I DO NOT OWN HETALIA: AXIS POWERS!

"Mr. Britain! Please open up! I have the growth numbers!" Theodore knocked on the large doors and called out to the country.

"Haud yer wheesht(1), yastupid kid!" came a loud response. Theodore jumped and took a step back as the door opened. There was a red headed male; his eyes were a lime green like Arthur's and his eyebrows were thick like his too.

"Scotland, get back here!" Arthur rushed up to the redhead. "Will you be sending your troops over or not?"

"Tch, you got yourself into this war, ya wee scunner(2), why the bloody hell should I help you?" Scotland sneered.

"Oh, on your bike(3), you rat arsed wanker! It's not just you," Arthur yelled. "What about Ireland and Wales(4)? We're supposed to be in this together! We may have all the British Empire to back us up, but if we can't even agree on our plans, how do you expect us to win this war?"

"You don't get it do ya?" Scotland towered over Arthur. "We declared this bloody war on Germany, and now you want to ally with the Jerries(5)? Who's the one who can't agree on our plans, eh?"

"Just listen to me!" Arthur yelled, his face was turning red. "France didn't agree to our alliance treaty the first year! If we ally with Germany, we can add our navy with their army and we'll be the strongest alliance in the war!"

"Oh aye! And what makes you think you have the final say?" Scotland demanded. "The world may know you as the so called 'Great' Britain and the United Kingdom, but to us yer nothing but our failure of a little brother, England!"

"Shut your mouth!" Arthur yelled. Theodore was shocked. He had never heard anyone call Arthur England; Britain and United Kingdom yes, but never England.

"Look, the North Sea isn't going to protect us forever, Scotland," Arthur calmed himself finally. "A stitch in time saves nine(6). Old frog face isn't going to sign the treaty, and no one wants to ally with Italy. Russia is allied with France, so we can't ally with him either. All's left is Germany and Austria-Hungary who are allied together. We can do this, together we can take down France, Russia, and Italy, while still obtaining all the objectives King George V assigned."

There was a moment of silence as the two brothers stared each other with similar looks on their faces.

Scotland sighed. "I'll inform Ireland and Wales, and get see what we can do to get all our bosses to sign the treaty. You sure you know what you're doing, England?"

"Yeah, I know what I'm doing," Arthur said.

Scotland scoffed before leaving without a sign of goodbye. Arthur watched as his older brother left. Of the four brothers, he was the youngest, and his older brothers' punching bag. Back when he was younger, his brothers would chase him around with stones and arrows.

"U-um... sir...?" Arthur turned around and there beside him was Theodore, slumped slightly, and shaking with stress.

"Oh, Theodore, there you are, I don't suppose you happened to see all of that?" Arthur asked and got his answer when Theodore shakily nodded. "Yes, well, that was Scotland, my older brother, whenever he's not drunk he's criticizing everything I do, and even then he still will, albeit less logically..."

"Um... why did he call you England just now?"

"It's as he said," Arthur sighed. "I represent Britain to the world and the other countries. However, back home with my brothers, I'm England." There was a slight silence and Theodore tried to make sense of what he was just told.

Clearing his throat, Arthur spoke, "Wasn't there something you wanted to tell me?"

"Oh, uh, I have the troop growth," Theodore took out his folder, removed the correct sheets and gave them to Arthur.

"A gain of 10,000," Arthur studied the sheets. Then a smile crept to his face, while his eyes stayed on the sheets. "I believe, soon enough we'll be receiving a large growth spurt in our troop numbers."

Nico: Whoo a guest appearance of Scotland. Why? Well I've always thought of Scotland as the eldest brother (although I'm an not quite sure) of the four. I've also seen a lot of artwork of Scotland, all of them very similar (red hair, lime green eyes, bushy brows, rude persona).

Notes:

1, 2, 3, 6. If anyone read the notes for my recent Austria-Hungary chapter, I was researching some Scottish and British sayings. These are what I found, and yes they will be translated.

4. Back then, the United Kingdom included Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales) and Ireland. In 1922, part of Ireland became independent. In 1927, it became The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

5. Jerry was a name used by the English for Germans. I was mostly used in World War II, but it was first used in World War I.

Translations:

Haud yer wheesht - Hold your tongue/Be quiet

scunner - nuisance

on your bike - a polite way of saying f**k off

aye - yes

a stitch in time saves nine - means: act early and you can save a lot of time

I'm enjoying learning from my writing. I'm learning a lot of languages. I also believe, that in two chapters this arc will be done, and we will be closer to Christmas. Yay~

See you all next time then!
