Chapter 10:
Levels of Sanity
Pain. Everything hurt... I looked down at what was left of my body... Me legs weren't broken, they were crushed... He'd used his pipe like a whip on my back... Again... And again... And again... No matter how much I'd begged... It hasn't stopped. I hadn't prayed like that in a long time... Not since... A long time... He'd been drunk last night, and targeted Latvia. No one hurts Latvia. I'd stepped between Russia and his prey... He hasn't taken that well... Not only was he drunk... He was extra insane last night... Some days he was almost normal... Not last night... Last night he was just crazy... I didn't know why... But it'd been raining for days, and I could hear him yelling with his boss even from my cell... Something wasn't going well...and he took it out on us. Countries are stronger than humans... He would have killed me otherwise... I couldn't move. I could hardly breathe...but Latvia... Latvia was fine. Just a few bruises on his face... Not... Not like me. I tried to sit up, but I couldn't. With almost no unbroken ribs... Not happening... I moaned. Everything hurt... Everything... Only my left arm wasn't smashed...though a few fingers were...
I heard my door open and I shuddered... Was he back to finish me? It was Latvia... I smiled sadly. I didn't want him to see me like this... I was still soaked in blood... Wounds untreated and unbandaged... I was a mess... I smiled sadly at Latvia again...
"P...Prussia..." I could hear the tears in his voice...
"Hey..." I scared myself with how horrible my voice sounded...
"You didn't have to do that!" He ran to me, taking my better hand and sobbed...
"Hey... Hey don't cry..." I teared up too... My tears mixing with my blood again... It scared Latvia... "Please... Please don't cry..."
"Even you're crying..."
"Please..."
He nodded and wiped first his tears, then mine...
"I'll go get bandages..." He sniffed.
I nodded.
"No need." We heard from the door way. I jumped, shaking almost as hard as Latvia did... It was Russia...
He set the bandages down on the table and walked over to me...
I shuddered... No please no...
He picked up my right arm... He looked it over gently, and snapped it. I heard more bones crack and I screamed in pain... Then looked at my arm... He'd set it... Not destroyed it. I looked up at him confused.
"I didn't know what I was doing last night... Prussia... I sorry..."
I blinked. Russia... Apologising!? I just stared... We're those tears in his eyes!? What was going on!?
"Sh..." Russia pet my face... "I will heal you now."
"Spasiba." I knew he wanted that. I winced as he touched my back. He washed wounds he'd given and bandaged me. I looked up at him confused.
He only sighed.
It scared me. Russia acting so different. I didn't like it. I was so confused... "R...Russia..." I dared to speak...
"Da?"
"Let me see my bruder... Please..."
He shook his head "Nyet. You belong to me now."
I sighed now. So even like this Russia was still Russia...
When he finally left Latvia came back in, trembling...
"Is that what you meant by a sane Russia?"
He shook his head. "Nyet... He... He beat you last night to heal you this morning... So you'll like him... And want comfort... He tried it with all of us.. It works..." He trembled.
I bit my lip. I refused to let Russia win like that... But if he kept doing this... I didn't know how long I could hang on... His 'comfort'... Felt... Good...
