~ Last Chapter ~

Emil nodded along as Tino suddenly brightened up, "So what do you think? He will he your new partner!" Emil looked up at Tino and smiled with a blushing face. "Thank you, I love it..." Tino just smiled.

"Now for the mission?" asked Tino tentatively. Emil just nodded. Meanwhile Mr. Puffin just stared.

"Our target, the tower of doom!" cried Tino right before he and Emil put on their cloaks to go to their secret headquarters, fearfully dubbed as "the tower of doom".

"Tino, it's not funny anymore," Emil stated deadpanned, "you should at least change it to 'the Great Leaning Tower of Doom' or something. But seriously, it's not funny anymore..." he said with sarcasm.

Tino hummed to himself as he considered the thought, "Great idea!"

Emil deadpanned once again.

Splash! The water from the traffic splashed back onto the sidewalk. Tino and Emil tried to avoid it but they got splashed anyways. But thanks to their waterproof cloaks they didn't get wet.

"I wonder what mission I will get..." thought Emil out loud, trying to imagine them. He spoke in a soft voice so only Tino can hear.

"I dunno... But I hope they give you an easy mission," Tino voiced his opinion.

"But I want to have harder missions! I mean the last mission is to track down a cat!" Emil whined.

"But it had important information with it, plus it can claw or bite you to death." stated Tino, trying to convince Emil that it was a hard mission. (A/N: haha! It sounds like a Hibari cat! Hibari as in Hibari Kyoya from Katekyo Hitman Reborn~!)

"But still it was super easy!" Emil complained back.

Tino sighed. He knew that Emil was a very skilled kid but he was one of the youngest people in the Hetalia secret agent base but he always complained about his Rank K missions and wanted to move to Rank D or C. "Well, I guess it would be a harder mission since I'm going with you but I still have to make sure we don't get killed so don't choose super hard ones." Tino tried not to get Emil's hope up too much without hurting him but it doesn't seem to work that well.

"You're coming with me to the mission?" asked Emil brightening up.

Tino internally cringed, "Yeah, maybe..."

Emil childishly cheered, "Yay!" totally dismissing the "maybe" part. That earned a look from a random pedestrian walking by. They continued walking towards the tower with a happier mood. At least from Emil it is.

'I still hope that he would take my consideration to thought. But knowing Emil, he wouldn't. Hopefully he will be wise and choose a good mission. Through I still need to talk to Eduard about the oncoming meeting; I forgot when it is... I hope that Mathais and Berwald will be back soon...' Tino thought, 'Through I also wonder why Emil didn't bring Mr. Puffin out. Mr. Puffin sure can get a view from town like this!' and after that thought Tino started thinking about other random things that almost made him pass by the tower. Well, he did and Emil had to snap him out of it and get them back on track.

Once they entered the tower they found out that many members were there. I mean more than normal. So basically people squishing each other so they can get to their destination. The HQ itself was pretty big so there wasn't much squishing but there are still some squishing. That was a bad sign.

There are always three main possibilities if a lot of the members are present at the same time. First there could be a super big mission that they all have to work together and do or that they finished their missions at the same time or it could be that many people came back from a big mission. Hopefully it was the latter one of those three.

Anyways there are many groups like the Nordics but contain different members made by the higher ups like, for example, the Axis Powers a.k.a. Axis and the Allied Forces a.k.a. Allies. They were always completing on who's better through the Axis a losing to the Allies at the moment. But there are also other groups that the members made up so some members are in multiple groups. For example, the Bad Touch Trio, The Asians, The Soviet Union, The Baltics, The Eyebrow family, and etc. Funny how each member came from a different country or nationality except for the Italian brothers and the German brothers. Some members prefer working alone than in groups.

Emil and Tino started greeting the members that they know. Tino waved and ran over to Edward as Emil spotted Kaoru in the crowd with his Asian "family" so Emil decided just to say hi and tried to find some good mission. He and his "family" were nice enough to greet him and wish him luck on his next mission. Before he left Kaoru asked him his gathering. Emil, surprised, said that he didn't know so Kaoru sighed and filled Emil as much as he can. After Emil thanked Kaoru for the information and started to look around.

After looking around for some time he took notice that no one was really taking any missions. Of course they were looking at them, talking about them, and fooling around but none of them is actually taking the missions and claiming it as their own.

He went towards one of those boards. They were all rank D missions. You see every mission had a rank. Z being lowest and TS as the highest but both TS and S missions were rare and usually the boss would give them the mission in private. So the ranks in order from lowest to highest are:

Z, W, O, L, K, E, D, C, B, A, S, and TS.

Talking about the boss, nobody had ever seen him, well, at least talked to him except for the Italy brothers. They were direct relatives. There is actually two bosses, one called "Rome" and other called "Germania". While Rome ran the whole organization, Germania helped as a vice-boss. Only the German brothers ever seen the vice-boss, just like the Italy brothers, they are direct relative of Germania, through some people claimed to see him and he was more... German.

Back in reality Emil was wondering around looking for people. Then two familiar heads seemed to stand out from the crowds. Mathias and Berwald. Emil called towards them, trying to catch their attention.

"Mathias! Berwald! You guys came back earlier than I expected," Emil called out monotonously.

Mathias and Berwald seemed to be in a deep conversation until Emil called out. "Oh~ Emil!" shouted the Danish, waving his arm in the air.

Berwald just turn towards him with the same scary face. Well, it was normal for him anyways.

"Wh're's T'no?" asked Sweden trying to spot his "wife".

"Talking with Edward," was Emil's immediate response.

Berwald left after hearing that his "wife" was talking to Edward, trying to find him.

"So, Ice, how was your day?" asked Mathias, cheerfully.

"Beautiful," Emil said with dripping with thick sarcasm, "As if it's a sunny day."

Mathias almost winced at the sarcasm. 'As cold as ice, indeed,' thought Mathias. "Oh really? So... Any missions these days?"

"Yeah, chasing random cats..." grumbled Emil.

Mathias sighed, 'Guess Icey isn't happy about his missions again...'

"Hey..." started Emil as Mathias looked at him, "Do you know why we are called out here? It seems like there is something big that's going to happen, like those big missions that involve everyone..."

Mathias cringed, "I sure hope not or that would be very troublesome..."

"Haha. That coming from a very troublesome guy." chuckled a voice beside Mathias, from another group.
