Okay, I have good news, and bad news. The good news it that I'm on my last week of school ^0^ The bad news is that I have work experience for two weeks, so I might as well be at school anyway...But after those two weeks is the summer holidays, so I should be able to update more then XD


The moment they were let out of the helicopter, Rosa ran for the nearest toilet she could find. Luckily there was one right next to the entrance on the inside of the building they had landed next to.

Rosa groaned loudly after she had coughed everything up. Her feet had automatically taken her to this room, so she was guessing that that had been her subconsious again. Maybe being connected to a country could be useful at times...

"...Excuse me?" someone knocked on the door of her cubicle. "Are you alright?"

The British girl stiffened. Why was there a man in here? She- ...Wait, her subconsious took her here...and Rosa was pretty sure that England was a guy...

She nearly slammed her head down on the toilet. She was in the men's room!

Rosa opened the door slowly, blushing furiously. "I-I'm fine, thank you"

A blue eyed man with brushed back blonde hair looked at her worriedly. He's German. Rosa's mind immediately told her.

"I...I was a little car sick..." Rosa mumbled "I wasn't looking where I was going...so..."

"I see" the German man said awkwardly "Then I suppose I'll just..."

The door swung open suddenly "Yo, Rosie?" America called "You okay? Also, do you know that you're in the-"

"I already figured that out! And why didn't you stop me? Idiot!" Rosa yelled back, still completely embarrassed about the whole thing.

"Dude, you ran off the moment the door opened. I've gotta say, you can run really fast when you want to..."

Rosa sniffed unhappily "...It's 'got to'...not 'gotta'..."

"America? You know her?" the blonde man asked out of no where, a hint of surprise in his voice.

"Oh, hey Germany" America blinked, as if he had only just noticed the blonde man "And yeah, this is Rosie-"

"Rosa" the British girl cut in. The last thing she wanted was someone else calling her that nickname...

"...Anyway, she's England's sister" America finished.

Germany frowned "...But she looks like a normal girl. How could she be England's sister?"

"Well..." America started uncertainly "She is kind of related to England. I mean, it's not just because she's British, she really is, in a way. Well, everyone thinks of people like her as there sister or brother or whatever, it just makes things less weird. But I guess she's not related to England biologically...or, maybe she is, I don't know how these things work...Maybe she's more like a cousin, a hundred times removed...or-"

"America" Germany said coolly "You're rambling. And half of that I didn't even understand"

"Can we just go?" Rosa begged "Being here just feels...weird" she turned to the German man "And...um...It was very nice to meet you" she said awkwardly. "Since America called you Germany, I guess that means you're actually the country Germany...Thanks for making those advent calenders...and christmas trees too...I really liked them..." When I was five...Rosa added silently.

Thankfully, America decided at that moment to drag Rosa out of the room before she could embarrass herself further.


Sakura opened her mouth to scream, but it only came out as a strangled gasp as they narrowly avoided another car.

"Watch where you're going! Bastardo!" Alice shouted as a series of beeps from the other cars followed them.

Amelia scowled "Why aren't we there yet?" she asked, sipping her soda irritably.

"You're the one who wanted to stop for McDonalds!" Alice replied, swerving suddenly as they nearly hit a lorry.

Sakura and Françoise shrieked at the same time, hugging each other tightly.

"A-Alice, mon chère..." Françoise said after she had composed herself slightly. "Don't you think you're going a little bit fast?"

"What was that?" Alice yelled over the wind "You want me to go faster?"

"N-no, no!" Françoise screamed, deciding to forget about acting calm.

Sakura whimpered. Surely we're breaking any available traffic laws...she thought panickedly.

Traffic laws? I haven't eaten something like that before~

She looked around wildly "Did...did any of you hear that?" Sakura tried to ask, but no one seemed to be listening. She frowned. Where had that voice come from? It had been a man's voice, with an Italian accent. Oddly, it had seemed familiar...

Maybe she just imagined it. Weren't people meant to have hallucinations with near death experiences?

"How soon can we get there?" Amelia asked Alice, not bothered at all by the obvious peril she was in.

Alice looked away from the road for a few seconds to check the device Amelia had somehow attached to the car. "If I break a few more small rules, we should be there in about ten minutes"

The blood drained from Sakura's face, wondering what Alice's definition of 'small' was.

"'Kay" Amelia still seemed oblivious to any danger. "I hope Rosie'll be alright until then...Maybe I can try to call her..." she brought out her mobile, going to her list of contacts.


"The meeting room's in here" America explained as he opened the door for the British girl and the other two nations. The meeting hadn't started yet, so everyone was standing up and chatting to each other quietly.

"So...everyone here's a country?" Rosa asked nervously. Most of them weren't paying any attention to her, but a few were looking at her questionably.

"Pretty much" America said cheerfully "This is a very important meeting"

"I...I'm not going to have to do anything...in front of all of these people...am I?" Rosa asked quietly.

Japan smiled at Rosa gently. "Don't worry, Kirkland-san. I'm sure you won't have to do much" America turned away suddenly, not looking the other's in the eye.

"Good..." Rosa said in relief "Um...you don't have to call me Kirkland. I'd actually prefer it if you'd call me Rosa..." she sighed as she remembered how long it had taken for her to convince Sakura to call her by her first name...

"O-okay...if you insist..." Japan said a little hesitantly "R-Rosa-san..."

Japan proberly would of said something else, if a very familiar song hadn't filled the room.

Never gonna give you up! Never gonna let you down! Never gonna run around and desert you!

Anyone who hadn't been staring at Rosa already turned around in surprise.

America looked at her sceptically "Dude, Rick Astley? I know he's British and all, but seriously?"

"My, my..." France looked like he was trying very hard not to laugh "You certainly have an interesting taste in music..."

Blushing worse then that time in the toilets earlier, Rosa brought out her mobile.

"Yes?" she asked through gritted teeth.

"Rosie?" an all too familiar voice asked "Good, you're alright! Don't worry, me and the others are-!"

Rosa's voice was icy. "Go to hell, Amelia" She clicked the end call button, and then attempted to throw the damn thing out the window.
