A/N: Ok I'm sorry this took so long the day I got it typed up I got grounded and also graduation is taking its toll on how much I can write I'm very busy. and finally got a review. Thank you for that it really got me to start the next chapter.
Belarus sat in her room scowling at her knife and talking to herself. She tired of their Italian rulers lies. She wanted to leave and take her brother and sister with her. Italy had her brother chained in some dark basement room. He had promised not to hurt him if she obeyed his orders. She obeyed and still she could him being whipped even nations had a breaking point of when they could no longer hold their tongues during a flogging. She wanted to kill the Italian bastard.
"Bastard von't get avay vith his lies for much longer." She said quietly "Ve'll take care of ze problem von't ve? Yes ve vill then big brodder vill have to love me for sure… He'll have to…" She said and sharpened the already deadly sharp blade. Barely touching it could draw small beads of blood. She sheathed the blade still scowling bitterly. Getting up she left her room to contemplate the different ways she could kill Italy.
Romano was walking down the same hallway and almost ran into Belarus who glared at him. She had the urge to rip the males head off but refrained it would not be in her best interest to do so . Italy would likely execute her if she even touched his "precious frattelo". Romano apologized to her for not paying attention he wasn't rude to women very often.
Belarus walked down a few hallways turning many corners walking silently like a wraith. She opened a door and walked into the room. Her sister Ukraine sat at a small desk knitting a large square blanket. The yarn was thick but soft it was just a little bit of normalcy for her and it helped her keep a level head. "Belarus vat brings you here?" Ukraine asked looking up from her knitting when she heard the door shut "you're getting mad again aren't you little sister?" She asked a bit concerned. She knew how to deal with this although it was not easy since it required stealth which she did not have much of. Well she could but it took more energy than she had on a regular basis with the work she did. Belarus'head twitched in a nod her expression not changing at all. Ukraine sighed and stood her voluptuous chest bouncing a bit as she walked across the room to her sister."Let's go zen and get back before anyone realizes ve are gone." She said and led her sister back into the hallway. She looked around and quickly moved down the hallway with little sound.
Ukraine opened a door and went down a flight of stairs Belarus following close behind."Big Brodder better not be hurt zis time…" She hissed under her breath. She hated seeing Russia harmed he was strong but even he had limits to what he could handle. She continued to follow Ukraine down stairs, corridors and more stairs further down till it smelled damp, musty and very much like mildew. She hated that smell it reminded her of hiding from the Nazi's when they invaded The Soviet Union during WWII. She hated that she had run and hidden leaving her brother to take care of the problem. She kept walking her thoughts wandering around in the past. Ukraine opened the door looking she saw Russia who did not appear to be anymore hurt than the last time they saw him. Belarus walked in quickly and went over to inspect his body to make sure he wasn't hurt "Big brodder are you avake?" she asked standing in front of him.
Russia nodded he was chained to his bed so he couldn't get up his hair was dull and oily from lack of care and food. He opened his eyes and looked at Belarus and Ukraine. His eyes were a little dull but aware. He knew what was going on and he knew the risk his sisters were taking to see him. "Vat are you two doing here?" he asked his voice was a bit raspy. "You know if you get caught you vill be punished for it." He looked at the two of them and furrowed his brow.
"I don't care damn bastard can burn in hell for all I care." Belarus hissed. Ukraine stayed near the door acting as look out. She made sure snitches didn't catch them or worse Italy. At least snitches you could bribe with herbs and extra food when it came meal time. Italy you either found a way out of it or you got punished. Belarus spoke to and left she often had a one track mind with this although it did calm her some she now was less likely to kill Italy. Ukraine stayed though and crossed the space to Russia. She cried a bit but that was pretty typical of their conversations. She told him about gardening with Spain and other things going on.
"Big sister you should leave before you get caught." Russia said to Ukraine shifting he didn't want her or Belarus to get harmed. Italy could be brutal even to women although he suspected if Romano caught wind of that he would be very angry with Italy. He hoped that was so because his sisters could use the help from someone Italy trusts.
Ukraine shook her head "I'll only stay a few minutes longer I von't get caught brodder."She said to him "Do you know vat that screaming vas earlier zis week?"She asked Russia. She had not heard about Canada's misfortune yet. She wondered if any of the people who tended to Russia had said anything depending on what was passed on gossip could be rampant among those that were in Italy's home.
Russia shook his head "Nyet. I heard screams though. Sound like somevon unaccustomed to ze action." He said to her. There were a few people he suspected to be the victim but he could not be completely sure about it.
"I know… zeir voice must be very hoarse now…" she said "vell lets not focus on such dark things da? Ve vill find out who it vas soon enough." She said to him and smiled softly "I'm knitting again. I vas finally able to spin enough wool into a skein." She said happily
"zat is nice…" Russia said to her. At least she could have some small comfort in this place where nothing good seemed to happen.
They were both distracted by the conversation and didn't notice Italy walk in until he spoke "So you've decided to break the rules Ukraine. I didn't think it would be you to sneak down here to visit your frattelo." He said to her a bit mockingly "No matter you have broken the rules and should be punished accordingly." He smirked as he said this he was curious as to whether Russia would allow his sister to be harmed. Whatever the decision was he would still have fun no matter what.
Ukraine jumped and turned to look at Italy there was fear in her eyes but with the determination of an older sibling protecting a younger one was present as well. It was obvious that she wouldn't let Russia take the damage for her mistake. She had stayed too long and it was her own fault she got caught she was glad though that Belarus left when she did "I vas making sure he vas ok. That you didn't break your promise to Belarus.. S-she vas svearing up and down you vere beating him so I decided to sneak down here to make sure zat vasn't the case." She said stuttering slightly it wasn't a whole lie but it sure wasn't the whole truth. She was going to try and talk her way out of getting beaten she wouldn't be able to work well if her punishment was sever. "If I didn't do zis she vould have killed you so vhy not zink of zis as breaking ze rules for survival." She said carefully not wanting to set off a trap of words that would ultimately get her and her sister punished. She could be good with words when she needed to be it was like stealth it just took more energy then she really had on a regular basis.
"You still broke a rule though." He said he smiled in a creepy pleasant way. "No matter what the necessity is follow the rules. Next time inform me directly of any problem." He said to her tilting his head slightly and looking at her with eyes that were big and brown looking as innocent as a doe's eyes.
Ukraine nodded and shivered slightly"Da I'll do z-zat next time" She said losing most of the confidence she had before.
"About your punishment. This once I will let you off with a warning. If this happens again, which it shouldn't, you will find things not so good." Italy said to her. "Now I think it would be best if you left… before I decide not to be merciful." He motioned his head towards the door telling her to leave the room, the expression on his face saying that being quick about it would be best.
Ukraine nodded and quickly left the room glancing back at Russia as she went through the door. She moved quickly and clumsily back to her room she almost tripped on one of the long decorative rugs in the hall but regained her balance and managed to get back to her room unscathed.
