Chapter 9
"Veeee~~~ I like them."
"You can't just trust everyone that smiles at you. I think they're hiding something."
"Ma petite Alice, you always think that. I on the other hand think we can trust to stay with these men."
"We can find out anything they are hiding we stay with them, Da?"
"Anya has a point aru~. But I don't want to be stuck with someone as crazy as that China aru~! I'm not even sure if he is a guy."
"Oh China, how wourd it be possibre for both of you two to be women? Have you not been paying attention?"
"I really don't want to stay with the Hamburgler there. He might eat me!"
"Oh and you weren't ever like that you pig?"
"Hey that's rude Alice! At least I didn't have to get laser hair surgery on my eyebrows to keep them from growing into a caterpillar!"
"Oh now who's being the rude one here?!"
"ENOUGH!"
Everyone turned to Monika who had finally snapped. "We came here to settle zis and we aren't leaving this room until we do! We have no money, no food, no shelter, and no knowledge of this world so I think it would be best to take up their offer and stay with them, are there any objections to this?!"
It was silent, and then Feliciana raised her hand. "Ve~~ Monika? Do you think I could take a photo later on?"
"Sure, whatever. Now does anyone have anything important to say?"
"How do you plan on getting us home?" François asked quietly.
Everyone's faces turned to Monika who had taken charge of their meeting. She sighed. "I don't know, but we will find a way. If anything we have to get back soon before any more Kaydoms come through." Everyone had totally forgotten about that issue.
"I think it would be best to stay with them." Amelia sighed disappointingly. She didn't like having to contradict herself but she wanted to get back to fighting their war as soon as possible.
"Da, I agree."
"Oui, I agree as well."
"Hai!"
"Fine aru~."
"Veee~~~ Si!"
Everyone turned to Alice who had her arms crossed. She looked at everyone and finally gave in. "Alright fine, if it means that much."
"Okay then. If everyone agrees than the motion is carried. Also, I would like meet every other morning for training so that we don't become rusty. We will discuss location later on after we scope out our areas. Does everyone agree?"
Everyone simultaneously answered "Yes."
They brought the men back in and gave them their answer. America and England seemed to be disappointed but everyone else had already become somewhat comfortable with the idea. The girls said goodbye to each other and went with their doubles to their new homes.
"Thank you very much for your hospitality Mr. Germany. I will be sure to pay you back in any way I can." Monika thanked him as they sped down the road.
"No need to pay me back. I only ask that you keep sound down to a minimum and to pick up after yourself."
"Of course," the rest of the drive was silent so halfway through Monika put on her headphones and ended up falling asleep to her music.
The ride with the Americans was just a constant argument about who was the greater hero.
China kept hugging Chun and she would keep pushing him away angrily. The only issue other than Chun's annoyance was that China was driving while trying to hug her.
Japan and Sakura began a long conversation over anime and the upcoming festivals as they rode in the train. "Oh you stirr cerebrate festivars here? You are so rucky!" Japan looked at her in shock.
"You mean you don't cerebrate horidays or anything?"
"No, It's too dangerous and prus the war keeps me from using any of my resources for such things."
"This war sounds terribre! What you are fighting for?"
"Perhaps I sharr terr you rater, I am very tired right now." Sakura pretended to sleep when she really just didn't want to think of the War anymore. Aside from the confusion and the hospital, she enjoyed the peace in this world.
The Russians stayed silent the entire time though the aura felt like someone was about to die.
François and France began a long, drawn out conversation over how it was dangerous for France to drink wine and drive.
"Vous idiot, you're going to kill us both!"
"It doesn't count if it's wine! Don't you know that?"
"Um…erm…I forget...It's been a few months since I've had any."
France looked at her in horror, "How do you sleep at night?!"
"I often don't. I had to reserve most of my wine because of the War."
France handed her his entire bottle. "Take it, I've never heard of such a travesty!"
François looked at the bottle in awe. It had been a while since she held a wine bottle, so when she took her first sip it was as though she had fallen through a rainbow of sunshine and happiness. Also, she got very drunk on the way home and fell asleep.
Then there was the car ride with Alice and England. The two were constantly fighting over who made better scones and whether having a king or queen was better. It was as though the two were an old married couple (don't tell them I said that). Alice was in no mood to argue after an hour so she cast a spell that forced her to sleep, leaving England nothing to do but focus on the road in frustration.
Life was going to become interesting for sure.
