Chapter Two: Manchuria
September 18, 1931
Kiku looked himself over in the mirror, eyes hard as he thought of what was to come next. Manchuria was his and China would not stand in his way of what was rightfully Japanese, even if it meant taking it by force. His hands clenched into fists by his sides. Yao did not control him, Yao was not anything to him, Yao was someone who needed to stay out of his business or be put down like the old mongrel dog that he was. This would be the last time that Yao interfered with him. Wordlessly Kiku turned and fastened his katana to his back before heading out the door where a few men were waiting for him. They bowed to Kiku who returned the gesture before heading off to where the rest of the troops were gathered for the invasion.

The target was Manchuria and its 730 mile railway. The land was given to Kiku by Ivan after the Ruso-Japanese war but of course Yao denied it seeing that Ivan had given him the land several years earlier in a treaty. That didn't stop Kiku though and in just a few days his troops had occupied almost every city along the railway.

"Wow, Kiku's army sure works fast da-ze" Yong Soo mumbled a bit worriedly as he and his brother walked along the road with their troops towards where they would be meeting up with Kiku and his men "I feel bad that we have to help him invade teacher"

Heyong Soo glanced over at his twin brother and placed a hand on his shoulder, smiling a bit to try and reassure him "I'm sure this will roll over soon. Kiku is just trying to prove a point to teacher"

"I know but I hate it when we all fight da-ze. I don't see why we can't all just get along like we use to" Yong Soo said before he bit his tongue hard as Kiku appeared before them, dressed in all white with a expressionless yet somewhat sinister look on his face.

"The past is the past Yong Soo" The Japanese man said smoothly "You are both under my control so I expect you to forget about any feeling you have towards the enemy at this time. Am I clear?" The Korean twins nodded and Kiku smiled ever so slightly "Good, now come with me. We still have more work to do"

"I don't like this da-ze" Yong Soo mumbled in Korean as they followed a little behind Kiku.

"Just do as he says. This will be over soon and then we can go home and have kimchi together" Heyong Soo whispered back before they slipped into uncomfortable silence. In truth both knew that this would not be over soon.

In a few months their armies had occupied Manchuria with little resistance or casualties on their part. "Ahhh!" Yao snarled as he punched through a wall "Ungrateful brat! How dare he!" He snapped and knocked another hole in the wall "He thinks he can just walk in and take Manchuria from me aru! Little brat!" He kicked one last hole through the wall before panting heavily and stepping back to calm himself before he brought down the entire house.

"I don't think I have ever seen him so mad before" Jia-Long mumbled as he and his brother watched Yao pace back and forth over the length of the room.

"He does tend to be a bit more level headed than this but I think Kiku finally made him snap" Chen mused as he cleaned his glasses with the sleeve of his green robe.

Jia-Long frowned and stood, walking over to Yao with a bit of a hard look in his eyes though his face still emotionless "You hardly did anything to stop him. If you really cared that much you would have done something about it instead of just yelling about it like a child. Now stop throwing a tantrum and start planning on how to fix this" He stated firmly.

Yao instantly froze and glared at his youngest son before he took a deep breath and sighed "You're right Jia-Long, I'm being childish aru" He mumbled.

"How about I make you some tea" Chen suggested and stood, slipping his glasses back on and smiling warmly "It'll help to calm you down"

"No I'm fine now" Yao said, brushing the offer aside "Just leave me alone for a while. I need to do a bit of thinking aru"

The two nodded and walked quietly from the room, heading down the corridors that lead to their bedrooms. "We've never really seen a war before" Chen mumbled as they walked, a bit of curiosity lining his words "What do you think it will be like?"

"No one said we were going to war" Jia-Long grumbled back.

The Macau teen shot him a glare, his gold eyes locking with his younger brothers "Oh come off it Jia. You and I both know what is about to happen little brother. Once a dog tastes blood it wants more. Do you really think that Kiku will stop with just a little bit of China when he could have the whole thing? It's only a matter of time"

Jia-Long bit his lip and looked down wordlessly knowing he didn't have a retort. He hated when Chen was right. He wished Meimei was still here instead of in Japan with Kiku. He missed his sister. She was usually the one to make sure he and Chen didn't try to kill each other. He could only hope that she was alright considering everything that was going on right now.

"I think I am going to bed now" Jia mumbled before walking off swiftly to his room and shutting the door behind him. Jai-Long ran a hand through his shaggy hair before flopping down on his bed and giving an exhausted sigh. He lay there for a few minutes before reaching to his bedside and grabbing the telephone there. The half Chinese boy dialed in the number and waited a bit before it connected "Hey, it's me…Yes I know what time it is in London…No nothing's really wrong but I was wondering if I could come see you a bit earlier this year…Because I want to…Alright, see you soon dad…bye" He hung up the phone and curled up in bed again before drifting off into restless sleep.

Arthur frowned as he hung up the phone, brow crinkled in confusion. "Strange"

"Who was that Arthur?" Dylan asked as Arthur returned to the dining room where the rest of the family was eating.

"It was Jia" He replied to his Welsh sibling as he sat back down at the table "He said that he wanted to come home earlier than usual this year. I know that Japan has been messing about with China but I didn't think he would be that shaken up about it"

Scottie snorted "Forget about the bloody yellow brat and let's talk about something more important like those Fascist bastards in Germany, bloody krauts. When are ye going to do something about them?"

Arthur ignored his brother and went back to eating though inside his was on edge knowing something bad was on the horizon.

Not to be rude or anything but…I better not get any problems for the names. Dylan seems to be a good Welsh name to me (A lot of my family is Welsh) and Scotland seems to always be called Scottie. I'm pretty sure most people call Taiwan Meimei and North Korea Heyong Soo but if not, that's what I'll be calling them in this story. I've never heard anyone really refer to Macau as any specific name so I named him Chen. Hong Kong is named Jia-Long in this, no argument, end of story. I HATE it when people call him fucking Japanese names in stories and it will instantly turn me off a story if I see him called anything but a Chinese or even an English name seeing that he's both Chinese and British. Any Chinese name I'm basically fine with but you can't call a Chinese boy a Japanese name! Huff, okay, better now.

Also! I don't want to insult any Japan fans but in the future chapters (Nanking, Pearl Harbor, Battle of Hong Kong, etc.) he will be much, much worse because Japan did some pretty bad things as did Germany who will also be pretty dark in this story. Just giving Japan lovers a warning…Anyway, review please, and nothing mean.
