"Gilbert!" I heard Feliciono fling open the door to my portion of the house, where I had banished myself after i had disowned my brother, and run to my room. "Gilbert!"

You can nomally tell someones emotions by the sound of their vocie like if they are angry, sad, embrassed and such. Well feli was sheriking out of pure terror, amd the look on his face only confirmed it.

"What? Feli what's wrong?" It scared me to see Him this frightened. Most of the time when he was scared he played it up to get Ludwig to come with him, but this was no act.

He pointed franticly to the door gasping. "T-they... they are...coming!"

"Calm down. Its going to be ok. " feli looked at me and started to take deep breaths. When he stopped gasping for ar I continued. "Who's coming?"

Tears striked his cheeks as he cried in fear. "The Allies! Their coming but Ludwig won't leave. I know you are upset with him but I need you help. You promsied you would do anything for me. I need you to keep that promise. We need to get Him to leave. If we don't they will kill him!" My heart stopped. I won't be able to live with myself if anything happened to ludwig again. Plus Feli look so desprate I had to help.

I heitated before nodding hoping I wasn't make ing the wrong deasion and decided that it wasn't, nothing was wrong if it meant Ludwig was ok. With that I ran to the door and up to Ludwig's study.

He was standing over his desk looking at a map of all his conqured land. He uniform had blood on it from the battle field. He looked like he had given up on everything.

"You were right, Gilbert. I admit it." I hated the way he sounded, like all his dreams had been crushed. I already knew there was no way to convince him to retreat till a better time. So I started formulating a plan in my head.

"Go change you clothes." Both Ludwig, and Feli turn to me. Feli looks shocked, while my brother was confused. "If you won't leave then atleast look nice." He didn't responde right away, but slowly started toward his room. Feli hovered behind him as if to make sure nothing happened to him.

I really didn't know what i was thinking but I acted before I could change my mind. Before I knew what I was doing I had my knife out and cut across my arm enough to draw quite a bit of blood.

I took off my jacket and wrapped it around the cut to collect the blood. It hurt like crap but ignored it. When I though my jacket was throughly bleed on I wrapped some bandages around my arm and put it back on. Some of the blood had dripped on to my pants so I was thankfullI woundmt have to repeat this with my legs.

I messed up my hair which was pretty easy to do with the way I normally kept my hair. I hadnt sleep well since I disowned Ludwig so my eyes were bloodshot and I had dark circles under them. I think I could pass as the power behind this war.

The other two walked in as I was looking at my reflection.

"Glibert, what happened!" Luddy started to rush forward at the sight o fthe blood but I waved my hand impatiently trying to shut him up.

"It doesn't matter right now. I need you to act as if I started the war." He opened his mouth to protest but I keept going. "Don't ask questions. Just do it." I heard shouts from the solider that Ludwig had stationed out side and crossed to the balcony. I heard my brother telling Demo to go hide and the door shutting.

I was still trying to find what had caused the commotion out side when the door banged open.

"Dude. You're going to die." I turned to see Alfred in the door way, with the rest off the allies, pointing a gun at my brothers head. I saw his trigger finger tense and quickly run and shoved myself in front of him, at the same moment Feliciono jumped on His back lowering the gun and causeing him to shoot me in the stomach.

"Brother!" Star flashed across my eyes as i heard some one call me. I compulld to the ground gasping in pain. I wrapped my alreay injuried arm around my abdimane and slowly stood up.

I placed my self in front of my brother who had placed a hand on my shoulder and back to keep me from falling. I didn't let my pain show on my face. I did a quick scan of the room to see if anything had happened to Feli in time to see him dash behind Ludwig.

"What the crap Prussia! This has nothing to do with you. Get out of here." Francis pushed his way to the front of the group. He had been. Captured so I knew i couldn't fool him but I could try to get him to go along with me.

"I don't want you punishing my brother for was I did." I gave him a hard look. I knew he got my message but I didn't know if he would go with it.

"You guys think he could do this on his own?"I saw the allies all pause as glance at eachother while still watching us out of the corner of their eyes. It was obvisous they had.

"Well you were wrong. It was all me. I planned this. I just forced him to do the dirty work. I am his big brother, after all. He listens to me." I try to grin amd hold my arm up as if it was common sence. The others seemed to be seeing the realism in my words and started to raise they had lowered once I was in the way.

"Well you'll have to come with us then." I thought quickly then nodded.

"Fine as long as you can promise that nothing happens to my brother. You can take his weapons, put him in jail for a while, whatever, but you can't kill him." I glared at them daring them to say otherwise. I must have looked tough because i saw Arthur step back carefully, as if I could take him when I was this injured.

"We'll see what we can do." Matthew stepped out from behind the others. He walked up and pulled my away from Ludwig and handcuffed me behind my back. I winced when had gripped my cut a little to hard.

They allies followed us as they took me to a car. We drove til the decided we were safe and matthew tok me to a doctor.

"Can't have you bleed to death before your trial. And that will take a while since we are still at war with Japan" he watched at the doctor gave my stiches on my stomach and arm. From the looks he gave me i thought he might have seen though my act but never said anything about it.

After the doctor was finished with my had walked me to a room that would serve as my prison cell till my trail.

I was fed three time a day, a meal of bread meat potatoes some veggie and water, by Matthew. I didn't do much for the first few weeks besides rest amd eat. As I started to heal I started to contiue exersizing, though I had no intention of exscaping.

It was about a month later when matthew gave me some news.

"Japan surended under the condition he wouldnt be killed. Italy didn't do all that much and surdender not long after under the same conditions. So you are the only one that's going to have a real trial. Theirs will end about the same as Germany's. They disband their armies and pay back their debts. You won't be so lucky." With that he left he put down my food and left.

The next day I had another surpise.

"Brother." Ludwig came in holding my lunch tray. I smile at him.

"How did you get in here?" I made room for him on my bed next to me. He put the tray on my lap and sat down.

"Canada let me in. He said there was no harm in letting me talk to you. beside they are having your trial." I smiled knowing that Matthew fudged the rules so I could see my brother.

"I have to ask you some thing." I cock my head to the side to let him know I was listening as I eat. "I thought you hated me. So why did you do that?"

I glance at my brother. His hair was a mess and he looked tired. I felt bad that I was sleeping perfectly while he was up all night worrying.

"Feli asked me to." He winced so I added the next part. "And I could stand by and let them kill my reason to live" I smiled and wrpped one of my arms around his shoulders. "Besides this war is my fault. I I had been fast you would never stopped being holy roman Emire. If I hadn't restoreed you tou wouldn't have been a nation. If I had been a better brother you wouldn't have turned to the Furher for support."

He looked shocked. "What do you mean?"

"I mean that the war is my fault. Could I be any clearer?" He shock his head in frustation like he did when we made that promsie.

"No. I mean the other part about being you reason to live." I smiled wider.

"I mean just that. You are my heart beat, figuritivley speaking of course. If your heart stops beatting then so does mine. So for both of us don't let ou heart sto beating." I didn't know where all this heart felt, gushy stuff was coming from but it seemed to work.

"What are you saying?" I threw my head back in fruststion and sighed. My brother could be so dence at times.

"I'm saying that I did it for you! You have me wrapped around you little finger. If you asked me to do anything I would do it!" He seemed confused still.

"What about being a 'servent of evil' as you said before?" He looked uncomfortable, like he was afriad I would change my mind.

"Well I guess i have been a servent of evil since you where born. We are brothers. If we are ever reencarnated I would want us to play togather and stay as close as possible." I pulled him to me in a hug, wrapping my arms around his neck. He hesitated before hugging me back and burying his face in my shoulder.

I heard the door opend and looked up at Matthew. Ludwig pulled away and went back to his normal serious self.

"Your trial is over." My heart skipped a beat.

"And?" I didn't want West to listen but I knew he wouldn't leave until he knew what my fate was.

"I am to esscort you to your exacution." I nodded. My smile was gone but I wasnt upset. I was keeping my promise after all.

Ludwig went to find Feli while I walk silently to where I was going to meet the firing squad.

When we got outside I saw a crowd of people that were going to watch me exucuation. I quickly spotted my family and friends in the group. Rodrich with Eliza. Van with lilly. Ludwig with Feli. Antonio with Lovi. Francis and Matthew. Eliza and Lilly were openly crying, which was rare for both of them. Feli was crying burying his head in Luddys chest. I felt my hands being tyed behimd a post.

I could tell that my yougest brother had tears in his teas but was refusing to let them fall. I knew because he was so much like me, and I wouldn't have let him see me cry.

I saw the fire squad get ready and quickly flashed him my brights smile before I heard the guns go off and my world went black.
