I always wonder about that time that the Grim Reaper showed up in the Hetalia comics and hence my explanation of the situation from the side of the kids.

Sometime Around World War II

Kid smiles at the beautiful day. The sun was shining and no cloud in sight to ruin the symmetry. Now if only he could get David to let him build!

David gives a grin as he stacks another block, knowing that he is aggravating Kid's symmetry obsession. David gives another sheepish but unrepentant smile. His smile slips into shy smirk, "How do you wake a grouchy and ill English nation?"

Kid gave a jolt at his friend's random question, "Is he doing so to be insufferable or is he just sick?" Ask Kid while he leaned forward on his spot.

"Sick," confirmed David as he stacks another block.

Giving a thought, Kid spoke, "Get him annoyed or bothered and force him awake."

"That it?" Ask the personified state.

Kid frowns, "What does Mister Alfred usually do when you're sick?"

David hummed, "He prepares us food while Mother cooks some mysterious Hawai'ian remedy that makes us gag and look forward to Dad's tamed food. When that fails, Nana makes some medicine that taste weird but helps," Giving a pause he continues, "I think the scaring good. And nicer then finding some mystery dish or trying to get Nana to make something."

That right, Mister Bunnymund hates Mister England. Kid frowns, "What scares Nations?"

David looks as unsure as him.

Kid sighed and continues his block building.

David suddenly grinned, "Let's ask Mother! She will know!" David stands up and runs, splaying sand and dirt.

Kid rolls his eyes at the other person. He stands up knowing that the State ran to Madam Amelia.

David skids to a halt at the women in a pale blue gauzy dress, who looks like that she is sleeping in her hammock. "Mama! Mama! Can you help us?"

She gives a long sigh as she stirs from her rest. She turns her head and strokes David's tan cheek and said, "What is it? I was relaxing by the sound of the fountains," she gives a lazy eye look at the very small birdbath fountain next to her.

David beamed, "Mama, can you help us?"

Madam Amelia smiles and says, "Of course, if I can."

David jumps in excitement, "You know on how Mr. England seems sick. Well, me and … and Kid thought that scaring him would make him better!"

She smiles softly as she gave an odd look, "Death, and being forgotten." She then leans back on her hammock, "Now wake me when your one of your fathers gets here."

Kid scrunches up his face, "But Father can not actually be here."

Madam Amelia groans, "Not literally, now let me sleep."

David bounces a bit before he grins in excitement. He grabs Kid and precedes to drag the reaper to the large house, "Can you do that weird scary aura thing that your Dad and Asura does to normal people?"

Kid puffs up despite being bodily dragged, "Yes, Father even said that I could beat him someday."

The State gives a mischievous grin, "Lord Death left one of his cloaks here and if we can't get your brother to help, we can use the stilts, and you can pass as him."

Kid stumbles again and asks, "Why do you have stilts?"

David gives a shrug, "Stuff shows up all the time. We stop caring what shows up after the Excalibur incident."

"Excalibur incident?" Ask Kid.

David shrugs, "Nana showed up with Mr. Sanderson and an obnoxious sword and a few other stuff. West was really sad when he found out his favorite legendary sword is a real jerk."

"Huh," said Kid.

"Yeah, after that odd stuff pops in often, Mr. Sanderson claims that he had accidentally connected the house to 'the Dream', and can not disconnect it, whatever that is," nodding David, "Let go find Dad, he knows where the cloak is."

Kid frowns, "Don't you also need him involved in the prank on England?"

David gives a grin, "Duh."

If you are wondering who Mother/Mama/Madam Amelia is, she is an OC. She is the defunct Kingdom of Hawaii. I mentioned her in chapter four.

Kid and David (Nevada) are about 5-6 years old.

West is short for West Virginia. If you're wondering which sword I was talking about, West's favorite story growing up are King Arthur and his court, now think of a legendary weapon in the story plus a character in Soul Eater.

I was dismayed to learn the Kid really is around 13-15 years old and had not age slowly like I thought. But since I already set the story up that way I decide to ignore that tid bit of canon and keep the changes I had made.
