A/N: okay I realized I never brought the boys back, so this chapter is dedicated to the boys, and their opinions of the girls and all and their life in general. I'm not 100% sure what I'm doing with the girls, but so there is no confusion, this is during the birthday party when Romano is taken by Steph. I also realized that I don't all ways spell correctly even though I'm positive I am so hopefully no spelling mistakes in this one. if so just let me know and MAYBE I'll get around to fixing it lol. enjoy ^_^
Steph: I can't sleep.
Me: What the hell do you want me to do about it? trying to do a chapter here.
Steph: okay... Enjoy then.
The sun shone brightly on five boys, all sitting round at the nearby beach where a birthday party was being held for Lovino in Spain. Andrew was going through paper work, sighing here and there, Al was staring out at the ocean, Calvin was doing some martial arts in the sand, Zonn just stood there watching everyone, and Jeff sat beside Andrew, lad he could turn invisible whenever he wanted to, which was how he sneaked out of the party, and watching Andrew do work now. They sat in silence for a long time, no one saying a word, until Andrew lifted up a piece of paper, and Jeff's eyes went wide slightly. "She wants to do what!" Andrew and Jeff looked at one another, and then at everyone else, who was confused.
"What is it?" Calvin asked aloud for everyone.
"It's... Well... apparently, America want's to... umm... have legal authorization over Northern Ireland, instead of England. She wants Northern Ireland as her territory... Holly has changed since she took over America... I'm not sure I want her in charge of me and my country."
"but I thought you loved her? If you really love her, you'll love her for who she is, no matter how she changes. qui?" Al cocked his head to the side. Andrew just shrugged, unsure of what to do.
"Well, think of it this way, Hungary can't force you and Jeff together no more, so you'll be farther away from Hungary. She never steps onto American soil, that I know for a fact." Zonn spoke matter-of-factly.
"Perhaps... Arthur will be heartbroken, but maybe Holly will see Northern Irelands potential and let us become a country of our own." they all nodded in agreement, "Okay then, I'll make this official and sign it. I now belong to the United States of America." He gave a small smile, but had an uneasy feeling. He continued onto his papers, when a messenger arrived, panting. the boys stared at him a moment until Jeff recognized him. "Hey... You're my dads personal messenger to the president of Canada. What are you doing here?"
"Matthew Williams... is dead... was told to... tell you that... you are... Canada now... That's all." and he spun, running back to wherever he came from. They stayed where they were in shock, except Jeff. he just bowed his head and shook his head.
"I guess it was only a matter of time before this happened..."
As the boys all followed Jeff back to his hotel room, there were documents waiting to be signed. He sighed, walking over and sitting down. Andrew sat beside him, showing him how to work with the documents. The others watched, having a feeling they would have to learn sooner or later. After some time, Jeff explained. "Matthew was a wreck when he found out Gilbert was dead. He stopped eating, all most never left his room except for meetings. Kumajiro was the one doing his work, and finding out he killed himself, came as no shock to me." they all nodded, in understanding.
Jeff walked into the room, sighing from work that day. Andrew looked up, a bit apologetic. "So, hard day at work today?"
"tell me about it... Will it get easier or will it all ways be like this and I just get used to it?"
"A little bit of both. Need a shoulder rub?"
"yea, one of your shoulder rubs would be great." Andrew laughed, as Jeff sat down, back facing him, he began rubbing his shoulders and neck. there was a flash, and Hungary popped out from behind the sofa, scaring both men. "Elizavetta!" she laughed, as both men jumped behind the sofa chasing her out of the house. She got away before either one could lay a punch, but they were glad she was out of the house at least.
"Elizavetta?" they turned to see Calvin, both nodding out of breath. "I'd get your breathing under control. she might take a picture and say you just had sex." both faces pale and immediately started to control their breathings.
An hour later, Zonn and al walked in, "so did you guys hear? two days ago at Lovino's party, he announced that he was handing over his lands and stuff to Steph, or rather, Russia."
"What!" was chorused around.
"Ma cherie Steph would never do such a thing!"
"Face it al, she's Russia now. she has his psychotic need to be one with everyone." Zonn commented. Alfred, pouted, crossing his arms.
"so, Zonn, how did Lovino become one with Steph?" Andrew asked.
"Well, He walked in a room after Steph entered, they came out, Steph dragging him by the hair, curl included, forced him onto the stage, made him give the speech saying he was giving South Italy over to Russia, and then she dragged him out. Holly tried to stop her but, she decided she couldn't do anything. something about a hero not being able to save everyone."
"Wow, they both changed haven't they?"
"Yes, they have. The other girls didn't change though. why is that?"
"different personalities." Calvin interrupted. They all stared at him. "Yao told me, he said when a child is taken in to be the next nations leader, when the old one dies out, if the personalities are far too different, the new nation representative, has drastic changes, and eventually dies. Some last longer than others, sometimes not. it's why we no longer have children to take over."
"Wait... so the only one who would know anything about this is... Yao? What about Toris?" Andrew asked.
"Did they ever find the bodies of the nations?" Jeff asked.
"no, they didn't." Calvin answered, "But it is a bit suspicious. Last I heard, they were invited to a tea party Holly was holding."
"Can she cook?" Al asked?
"Yea, I've had her tea. it's amazing." Andrew replied, dreaming back to when they had tea together when they were younger. they stood around, finally everyone filling into the living room to the chairs and sofa.
"So, she can cook, so she didn't accidentally poison them from unable to cook like Arthur." Jeff replied. Andrew looked troubled, and was called on it by Calvin.
"She can cook, but thinking about it... she uses a special flower... lily, but... her favorite flower is the Oleander."
"the oleander?" chorused.
"One of the most deadliest flowers. she told me it was her favorite, and that it could be mistaken from the oleander... you guys don't think she used that flower do you?"
They were silent as they all looked at one another. they were all thinking the same thing, 'was she crazy enough to kill the nations?' Calvin stood up, "I think we should ask those alive, who attended that meeting, what happened. Beginning with Yao, because he was there, but he has not gone missing or killed." they all nodded, Andrew volunteering to drive.
Once at the Chinese man's home, they walked up, Walking in right after Calvin. "Father? I am home, and my friends and I have some questions for you."
"Aiya! I wasn't expecting you home for another week!" Yao came out, and hugged Calvin, who hugged back in return.
"Father, you remember my friends, Andrew, Alfred, Zonn and Jeff."
"I do. So nice of you to stop by Aru."
"Father, we have a question to ask of you. Who all was at that tea gathering?" They all noticed the paleness of Yao, before he answered.
"Not many, Aru. Just a few Nations, Aru. I'll go start the teapot, Aru!" and he tried to scurry off into the kitchen, but Calvin, having been taught martial arts from Yao, used such skills to block his way.
"Father, we know that tea gathering had something to do with the nations deaths. we need to know, who all was there!" He glared at Yao, who caved in and broke down in tears.
"I can't! They'll kill me, both of them will kill me..." he sobbed.
"Father!" Calvin got down and grabbed him into a hug. "Father, it's okay, we just need to know so we know who to blame. we'll investigate more and stuff, or you can tell us Russia's weak spot and we'll start a war."
"No! Don't start a war! We are peaceful now, that is all that matters!" They looked at one another.
"Then what does it mean if Romano gave his land to Steph?" Andrew asked. Yao looked up sharply at that.
"She did what, Aru? He did... No... No, Feliciano won't go for it, and Ludwig will start the war for him, Aru... Spain isn't here to do it, Aru... Oh no, Aru... this is bad, very, very bad, Aru..."
"Father, in order to prevent this, we need to know everything. What happened?" Calvin asked, and Yao gave him a pleading look, before bowing his head, and telling them everything.
They all were walking back to Andrew's home, and they began making plans, but in the end they had nothing. Andrew suggested "We can all ways do what the girls did, and kill our mentors."
"No. Then we would be no better then them, however... we could all ways get them sick, so they are bed ridden, and take over their work. it'll help us get the motions going for war and then not give the work back until the war is over. That way we can finish what we started, and hopefully finish Holly off." Calvin decided.
"Holly? You make it sound like she was the only one involved." Andrew countered.
"Andrew, think about it, the only one of the five who could have came up with the idea, is Steph and Holly. Holly is the only one who is willing to touch the Oleander, and know how too. Holly was the only one who served the tea. The girls didn't come out until well after the tea was served, and according to Yao, they all seemed uneasy. We can't go by Steph because she's just turning into Russia, however, Holly should be more cheerful and dumb, for taking over America, but she's more unstable than anything. so out of all the girls, who seems more likely to think it up, and put everything in motion, and be happy and not feel guilt about their actions?" They all murmured a chorus of Holly's name. "So agreed, we go after Holly, and do as I suggested? Make our mentors sick?" they all nodded.
For weeks they tried to get the nations sick, and in the meantime, Holly only became worse, as did Steph. Holly took over Canada, very discreetly. It was then, that people began to fear her most. She had taken over a strong country, without anyone knowing, until a whole week later. Steph had control over Southern Italy, Yao and Lithuania refused to come to meetings, and no one had a clue what was going on, except the Representative of Northern Ireland, who only had to report to Arthur, and the underling Boys, Calvin, Al, Jeff and Zonn.
"What if... we asked Holly to get the nations sick? I mean ask her how to. if she knew about the Oleander, I'm sure she would know a plant to make one sick long enough for us to do what we want." Zonn suggested. they all looked around, then shrugged, murmuring it would work.
