Moving on!
So, do we like the idea of the 2p's? Yes? No? Maybe? ^ ^
Also, I don't know why, but I've been really, really, REALLY happy these past few days, with no reason, just... happiness. And the fact that it's just happiness out of nowhere makes me even more happy, like, "I'm so awesome I don't even need a reason to be happy, I just am" kind of thing. And that's, like, so great because the exact opposite used to be true. I was upset and cried over the smallest thing; I might've had clinical depression, but I'm not sure because bam suddenly it's gone and I see the beauty in life and I JUST WANT TO SAY THIS:
I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY LOVE ALL OF MY FOLLOWERS, ALL OF THE PEOPLE WHO TAKE TIME TO READ THIS STORY, YOU'RE ALL SO IMPORTANT TO ME AND I LOVE ALL OF YOU AND YOU'VE HELPED THIS STORY ALONG ITS JOURNEY AND IF YOU'RE EVER SAD JUST REMEMBER THAT I LOVE YOU ALL SO MUCH AND I THINK I'M GOING TO CRY LIKE SERIOUSLY THAT'S HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU
I WISH THAT I COULD BOTTLE UP THIS HAPPINESS AND SEND IT TO YOU BECAUSE IT'S AMAZING AND IT'S LIKE LITERALLY NOTHING HAPPENED I'M JUST HAPPY
IT'S THE BEST FEELING IN THE WORLD
I WISH YOU COULD ALL HAVE IT TOO
BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU DESERVES IT.
Okay. I just really, really needed to let that out.

And yeah, at first, I did think France was a pervert, because, well, he is a bit. But I sort of let that blow up into something that it wasn't, and added that into the story. But then, I was wandering around the internet and saw a picture of him that literally made me cry and feel like a horrible person and I just ;-;
I really wanted to break the fourth wall and give France a supportive hug at that moment.
But I understand a little bit better, and I changed it. Sort of. ^ ^
And also, yes, France has a fabulous sense of fashion, and is a great cook~ We must never forget that, ever.
Alfred-San- I'm happy I made you happy. :D
"I... I really don't think this was a good idea." Chugoku whispered, drawing her knees up to her chest.
"Um... it'll pass. It'll definitely pass." Dakota didn't sound so sure anymore. The plane was trembling so badly that it was difficult to stand for more than five seconds without falling over, and the shaky noises were rattling more than ever.
The plane jolted suddenly, and they were all thrown to the side. "Bloody hell!" England yelped as he woke.
Carolyn covered her ears, tears streaming down her face as she tried to contain her panic.
"We're going to die..." Chugoku whimpered.
"Shhh! Don't say that, Adri, we're gonna be fine..." poor Dakota was trying her best. "Someone wake up France." she said as she poked Russia into consciousness.
England shoved France unceremoniously with a grunt of "Oi, Frog, beauty sleep's over."
Em's voice came one over the intercom. "A'ight, the storm's getting really crazy, in case you hadn't noticed. We're going to have to jump."
"Crap." Dakota whispered.
"However, there aren't enough parachutes for all of us, so some of us'll have to double up. I don't want any b-tching from any of you, comprende? First complaint I hear gets to jump without a parachute. Lookin' at you; France, England."
France huffed and crossed his arms, England was content with sticking his middle finger up at the speaker in the most gentlemanly way possible.
"Alright, there are five parachutes total. We hope you experienced the best flight possible, b-tches."
America and Em came out of the cockpit, their arms full of parachutes. "You should know the drill, count to three then pull the string." Em said as they handed them out. "Those of you with glasses or other loose objects, put them someplace where they won't fall. Move it, people, let's go!"
After a moment of struggling and everyone reaching for a parachute at once, Em and America managed to give all the duos a parachute. China put his hands on Chugoku's shoulders before she could say anything. He had been acting strangely ever since the world meeting.
Russia and Dakota joined hands. "We're in this together?" Dakota asked.
"Da!"
England made his way over to Carolyn, who was still in her seat, frozen in fear. She hadn't moved an inch. He placed a hand on her shoulder, and she fliched. "Ahm, Carolyn, love, we should get going..." He straightened up a bit. "I've taken the liberty of ensuring you don't have to jump with that frog." He glanced cynically at France.
France dramatically placed a hand over his heart, roses appearing in the air around him. "Excuse me? I'm sure Mademoiselle Carolyn would be much more comfortable jumping with a gentleman such as myself."
"Gentleman, my arse." England muttered under his breath as he helped Carolyn up out of her seat.
"What did you say, eyebrows?!"
England decided to let it go, just this once. It wasn't exactly the perfect time to be arguing right now, and poor Carolyn looked traumatized.
Nora's POV
'Yikes..." I thought, watching the ex-nation and recalling a certain One Direction Fanfiction I'd collaborated with Carolyn, Em, and Dakota on. I turned to the rest of the Axis Powers and put my hand on the back of my neck. "Haha, well, you guys, I'm pooped. That fight really sucked the energy out of me, you know? And, wow, look at the sky! It's getting pretty late, huh? Well, I guess I'd better go to bed and rest up! Night!"
And abandoning every thought of explaining what was happening tonight, I hightailed it past Prussia and into the closest guest bedroom I saw, then shut and locked the door.
I shuddered as I was hit by a cringe attack.
After a minute or two of flailing my arms, trying to wish myself out of existence, and rolling around on the floor, I let out one final nonhuman noise of regret before standing up and changing into a nightgown I found in the closet.
I snuggled into my bed. The window probably showed a breathtaking view of German countryside, but right now all I could see were the stars and the moon. They were so bright. Out here, there were no city lights to block them. I had always loved traveling to different places, because in the part of New York where I used to live, you couldn't see a single star out there. I loved just laying in the grass and watching them twinkle, thousands and thousands of miles away, and I wanted to be one. I wanted to be able to make people happy, to be a beacon of light, and shine with a light so brightly that even people that weren't with me could see me and be encouraged. The stars always filled me with hope.
Man, I'm really emotional about stars.
I closed my eyes.
Third Person POV with Suko
Suko sighed. This sucks balls, she thought unhappily. She was trapped down in Germany's basement until the Axis Powers decided what they were going to do with her.
Not only was this more boring than watching paint dry, she couldn't move. The ink around her wrist contained a paralyzing poison that had seeped into her skin and made its way into her veins at the speed of light, but after a few hours, it was starting to wear off. She could now wiggle her fingers.
With a great effort, she pushed herself off of the bench she was lying on. She barely caught herself from landing on her face.
Alright... she began shaking herself until her phone slid out of her back pocket. She was still figuring the new technology; it was confusing, but she was getting used to it. It had appeared around the same time her counterpart had - she guessed that since they were perfect opposite reflections, it would cause a ripple in the whole space-time-sh-t thing. Something bad would happen or something like that. The only thing that differed from Nora's phone was that Suko's was black.
Suko wasn't the only one with new technology, the other second players of the four returned countries had the same version of phone each of the girls had.
With a few more wiggles, the phone fell to the ground. Suko began pushing herself backwards using only her fingers. It was slow and tedious, but at least she was getting somewhere.
After a minute or two of this, her fingers and back ached, and she was hovering over her phone. She groaned. Endure, she thought, just another minute of this. You're the badass chick that no one wants to run into on the streets, this is nothing!
But holy fudge, this hurts my hands.
She held herself up with one hand, and unlocked her phone with the other, then started texting.
Suko: how the crap did nora escape
Speirell: wtf r u talking about
Speirell: she didnt
Suko: then tell me why the hell im paralyzed trapped in germanys basement
Speirell: crap u were right i just checked n shes not here
Speirell: the f-ck u mean ur trapped at germanys
Suko's fingers trembled. Her hand was killing her.
Suko: exactly what i said im in his basement
Suko: hurry up and get me but be careful
Speirell: whatever on my way
Hahhh. Suko collapsed and rested her fingers, her phone squished under her chest. And now we wait.
If only she had know about voice texting.
Back at their shared living quarters, Speirell flipped the table. "How on earth did you manage to screw up this one?!" she shouted.
Tassland swallowed and defiantly stared back at Speirell. "It wasn't my fault! After we left the cell, I tripled checked and made sure all the locks were in place!" She was just a bit timid in comparison to the rest of the second players, but she was still ready for a fight. If need be, she was deadly with knives.
"Tch." Speirell growled and started pacing. "Now we have to go all the way to Germany's house and bust her out without being caught. The boss is gonna be livid with your arse."
Tassland stood up. "I'm telling you, it wasn't my fault!" A vein throbbed in her forehead. Was Speirell really so dumb that she would jump to conclusions like that? "And you saw it yourself, the door was still locked from the outside!"
Speirell grabbed her bag and headed for the door. "Whatever. I'm going."
"Yeah. I'll stay here and wait for the boss." Tassland dropped back down into her seat.
"B-tch." Speirell slammed the door behind her.
"Jerk!" Tassland yelled after her.
Seriously, how the heck did Suko get herself into this? How did Nora escape?
The wind howled through the trees. Speirell shivered and looked up at the sky. Storm clouds were rolling in; she probably needed to pick up her pace.
A whisper flitted through the air. My dear child, it is not too late yet.
Speirell stopped in her tracks. As everything clicked into place. A bitter grin made its way to her face. She spread out her arms and stared up at the clouds. "Is it, mother? Is it really? I think if you really meant that, you wouldn't have let Nora free. You wouldn't have trapped Suko."
There was no answer.
"Yeah, I think you've already picked a side." Speirell muttered with contempt. She spit on the ground. "If it wasn't too late, you wouldn't have gotten involved."
Speirell began to run.
Suko tested her hands.
They moved.
Finally, she thought, before working on her arms.
Nothing.
Suko sighed. Her stomach grumbled. Her hands and back were sore. She could only move her hands and fingers, and she desperately needed a stretch.
Hurry up, Speirell! Geez, what's taking so long?
As if on cue, she heard a tapping on the window, before hearing it screech open.
She heard someone drop down and footsteps shuffle towards her. She was pushed over onto her back.
Speirell grinned at her. "Wow, you really can't move, can you?"
Suko took advantage of her free hands to give Speirell the finger.
Speirell rolled her eyes. "You got yourself into this mess. Here." she propped Suko up and pried her mouth open. "Don't choke." she said, tilting her head back and pouring a liquid down her throat.
Suko felt the liquid making its way through her veins, and after a few seconds, she could move again. "You are the actual best."
"Nah, I just didn't fancy carrying you all the way back."
"Whatever. Let's go."
And with that, the two girls climbed out of the window and into the dark, cold night.
The place to which they returned might have been home, but it was much darker and colder.
