Well. I would say that I was sorry for being late, but you guys are probably sick of hearing it….. So anyway, thank you to the awesome people who reviewed and messaged me about my story. I love you guys!!! I also love cliffhangers as you can plainly see, so get ready for more of them in later chapters. Disclaimer: I do not own Hetalia, but if I did, every strip would have Russia in it, and he would always be doing something awesome.

Kanna's POV:
The day started out normally enough. Kanna got up to the sounds of Liza cleaning the apartment they shared, and went down to the cafeteria for breakfast. Liza introduced more of her friends, and they actually managed to get to biology on time. Arthur and Alfred didn't have any more fights in History, no little kids were hiding under a teacher's desk, and none of the people she met acted weird. Kanna was almost starting to miss the strange happenings at the school…. But it was dinner when she noticed something. For the past 30 minutes everyone had been leaving in little groups or by themselves. It was getting so that she and Liza were the only ones still at the table.
"Hey Liza?" she said. "Yeah?" "Where is everyone?" Liza looked up from the History essay she had been writing, and glanced up and down the table. "Um, they probably left to go do their, um, biology homework!" she said with the air of someone grasping at straws. She nervously tucked a lock of brown hair behind her ear. Kanna raised an eyebrow. "We didn't have biology homework Liza. If you're going to lie, at least make it believable." The tomboy glanced down again, her cheeks turning a bright red. "I thought we did…." She mumbled. "Last night at this time everyone was going back for 4ths." Kanna stated, trying to draw more information out of her. Liza continued staring at her notebook, and seemed very interested in making sure that something she had erased was fully gone, seeing as she was now using white out on it. "I'm waiting…" Kanna intoned. The brown haired girl slammed her notebook shut and stood up. "I have to go to the bathroom," she said, and then clapped her hands over her mouth. She ran out of the room, leaving all of her stuff.
Kanna stared after her. 'Well, that was weird' she thought. Reaching over the table, she picked up the bright blue notebook on the table. 'I better give her stuff back. I wonder which bathroom she meant. Couldn't be the one in our room, she wouldn't have gone back there. Besides, her key is on the table. So, the 4th floor bathroom maybe?' She climbed the stairs and felt odd doing so, like something was wrong. Then it hit her. There was no one else out walking around. Everyone else was gone. Humming the Twilight Zone theme song to herself, Kanna walked to the bathroom in question. She flung open the door looked around, but there was no sign of Liza. She started opening all the doors to the stalls. 'Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. ' she thought, seeing that the first four were empty. Kanna got to the last stall, and prepared to see Liza standing on the toilet, hiding her shoes from view. Instead, she dropped the notebook.
Instead of Liza, there was a hole in the back of the stall. It went back a little ways, and then started to curve downward, like a tunnel to the center of the Earth. She stepped in and started walking down, tripping every now and then where the floor was pock marked with little ditches. 'I can just see the headlines now,' she thought. 'High school student goes missing, friends and family frantic!' Instead of turning around and going back to her room like a normal person, she continued down, until it leveled off. Once she couldn't see the light from the bathroom she stopped and started feeling her way along the tunnel. Kanna's hand hit something hard, and when she fumbled around with it she realized it was a light switch. She flicked it on, and suddenly the tunnel was flooded with light. She felt better when she could see, and the light kept her from glancing over her shoulder like her instincts had wanted to in the dark. Murmuring was coming from in front of her, and though she hadn't been able to hear it before, it was growing louder every second. By the time the tunnel ended, the murmur was a roar. Many different voices were yelling at each other, making the conversation almost impossible to hear. But one voice rose above all the others, and as Kanna rounded the final corner of the tunnel, she saw whose it was. Liza's.
Hungary's POV:
'Crap. I knew I shouldn't have gone straight here. Crap.' Liza thought. Kanna came down the tunnel, and everyone shut up. Alfred stopped yelling at England, Switzerland stopped saying that Austria could go die (she was on her way to deal with that), and the other, more meaningless conversations also ceased. She looked frightened and Liza didn't blame her. That tunnel is scary the first time. Kanna cast her eyes around, taking in the 3 walls of plasma screens, the really really really long table, and the giant globe where, instead of the countries, our faces made up the map. 'I knew that was a bad idea…..' Hungary cleared her throat. Kanna jumped at the sudden noise and looked at her. We both couldn't think of anything to say, so we just stood there and so did everyone else. Of course, Prussia broke the silence. "Hungary, are we just going to stand here?" he complained. "I don't know what you're talking about Gilbert," I said, putting extra emphasis on his human name. "What's the point now?" he said. "She's here, she's seen the globe, and she's going to start putting the pieces together." "She might not have!!!" I answered him, and he had the gall to look amused.
"Ehem." Said a voice from behind me. "'She' is right here." Kanna said, putting air quotes around 'she'. "And where is here?" she asked, tossing her black hair behind her shoulder. Okay. This was going to take some explaining.
