"Bruder! Wake up, verdammt!"
A strange white-haired ex-nation was shaking his brother's body, in an attempt to wake him up. After a few minutes, he eventually gave up.
"Gah... this is so un-awesome... Oh! I have an idea!" He suddenly perked up, grinning. "Kessesesese~" he laughed manaically.
"Oi, West! I drank all of your beer!" he called out. Suddenly, the albino's sleeping brother awakened and sat up with a shock, causing laughter from the ex-nation and a sigh from his brother.
"Prussia, did you really- gah..." how very thoughtful of you, bruder..." Prussia's brother couldn't help but crack a smile.
"West! I was really worried about you, you know? I'm too awesome to let you sit there and sleep your whole life!" Prussia declared proudly. "So anyway, I wanted to tell you about this awesome legend..."
All alone. Italy was all alone.
Holy Rome was gone, but at least he was safe, at least he was still alive to carry out the prophecy on his own. There's still hope, he thought.
Then he thought about where he was. On the beach, inside a cardboard box. He had shut himself inside, to hide from the "dangers" of this time period he was currently in. Oh right, I'm never going to carry out the prophecy this way... he said to himself.
But you know... maybe I should just wait a bit... until someone opens the box themselves. I'm getting tired anyway... he said to himself, drifting off to sleep.
A few minutes later, Prussia arrived with his brother on the warm sands of the beach. "Well bruder~ this is where your adventure begins, by the looks of that box over there. Seems suspicious, ja? Why don't you go check it out~" he suggested, pinching the other's cheek.
"Bruder, stop joking around. I need to focus on getting my memory back," Prussia's brother replied. "Oh riiight. You lost your memory. Well not all of it, at least! You still remember me, ja?" the albino asked, confirming. "Of course, bruder," his brother replied, starting to walk up to the box.
"Guess you're opening the box, bruder?" Prussia asked, getting a nod in reply from his brother.
Before anyone could even touch the box, it opened by itself, revealing the Italian nation inside.
"Ciao~!" Italy greeted, as he popped out of the box and waved. "It's nice to meet you! Who are you, anyway~?" he asked, looking Prussia's brother in the eye.
"M-me..?" the other nation blushed, trying to recover his name...
"Oh, ja. M-my name..."
"Si~? Your name is...~?"
"Ludwig. Ludwig Beilschmidt. Germany..."
