Romano POV
"Veneziano! Snap out out of it!" I screamed, Fear and terror of loosing My brother were blotting out common sense.
I ran, And tackled Feliciano, sending us both flying.
"No!" Japan called, and i looked up to see Vietnam make a run for her gun, So in a vain attempt i tried to make a flying leap, and landed ontop of her.
I Tried Desperately to stop her from grabbing the gun, but damn, she was strong!
"Get off me you Bastard!" She screamed.
"No chance!" I snarled back.
I stole a quick Glance over my shoulder to see Ita- I mean Feliciano Wrestling with Prussia.
Suddenly if felt someone punch me in the back the head. Explosive pain shot through me, And i felt dizzy.
I heard a click and looked up to see none other then Germany, pointing a gun at my head.
Vietnam slipped out from under me, and went to stand next to Germany.
"Potato Bastard, If I Ever, Get my hands on you, You will pay! oh you will pay so much, you bastard…" I spat at the blond haired man, meaning every word.
He narrowed his eyes at me. "Well we will have to stop that from ever happening…." He said darkly.
He pointed the gun at my head, and prepared to shoot.
"Put down the gun." I felt my whole body tense up, and i saw, standing behind Germany was japan. This fact by itself was not reassuring at all, But my giant machine gun in his hands made smile with relief.
"Japan, I take back very bad thing i ever said about you…" I said with a grin.
Japan Looked like he wanted to say something, but before he could, he fell to ground, And behind him, Was Russia, who was holding a big metal pipe.
"We're just going in circles…" I moaned, Then a thought struck me.
"Russia, may i ask the time…?" I asked slowly.
Russia looked curious, then said, "I believe its 2:25."
"Oh thank god…" I sighed.
Vietnam smirked. "If your thinking about the idiot outside, He's Locked up in a closet."
I Groaned, Then raised my head. "Wait, if we're here, then were's Prussia and Feliciano?" I asked.
Russia's eyes widened.
I looked over where Feliciano had been fighting with Prussia, To see that Prussia was on the ground unconscious.
"Shit!" Cried Vietnam.
I wasn't sure if i was happy or sad. On the one hand, Feliciano could be a murderer and we just released him on the world, But then again, That also means that Italy got out alive.
My brain started hurting, or might be the blow from were Germany hit me is causing a concussion, because everything looks a bit blurry…
I vaguely Felt my head hit the floor before everything went black.
"Germany, I think we need a Team name."
"Team Name?"
"Hai."
I felt drowsy as i laid there next to My friends, It was our very first night on a deserted island.
"Italy and i thought about it earlier, What do you think about axis?" Asked Japan.
"Axis?" Germany said thoughtfully.
"It mean, We our all connected together by an axis, And when we prevail, The world will turn on that new axis." Japan explained.
"Abstract, i was thinking fire death team." Said Germany.
"No, it Better to You's with are metaphor" Japan said stiffly.
"If you say so…" Said germany, Then he smiled. "In Germany You'd have to say, Achse"
"Sound bad ass." Said japan.
"In italian it would be asse!" I said suddenly, making both Japan and Germany jump.
I smiled, and wen't back to sleep.
I saw the world revolving around us, Just me, Japan and Germany!
I looked up to see Germany and Japan had gotten up.
I popped up and grabbed my white flag that always kept under my pillow, But the allies were no where in sight.
"What is it guys?" I asked turning to them.
My blood turned to ice, as i saw not just Germany and Japan, but every single one of my friends, All faceless, Were holding up guns to my head.
"Italy, You betrayed us…" Said Germany.
"I thought you were our friend." Said Japan.
"No! I'm sorry! I just didn't want to fight anymore!" I cried, feeling tears well up in my eyes.
"Italy, we can no longer trust you, i am afraid that you will be alone in death." Said Japan.
I backed away. "N-n-no! Please! I'm sorry!" I moaned, Big wet tears now fell freely.
I felt so alone, All alone…
"Italy, Don't worry! Just take my hand!" Said someone.
I looked up to see the holy roman empire.
"H-h-holy rome…" I whispered.
"Yes, Its me, i've returned after many years… Come with me and we can finally be one.." He said sweetly.
I reached out, and almost touched his hand, but something stopped me. "No one related to me would ever fall for such a rouse."
I turned to look and saw… "Grandpa Rome…." I said in shock.
"What? No, Come over hear, Italy, and we can be together forever!" Cried holy rome.
I looked back at holy rome. "W-what? But.. I already Explained to you… The reason My grandpa fell… Was because he got to big, and fell apart…." I said looking at The holy roman empire.
"Thats my boy! He's trying to trick you into turning to your dark side!" Said Grandpa rome, and i turned to stare at it him.
"Shit…" Said a slick voice.
I whipped around, to see… Me. But not me, i.. It, was wearing all slick black, And its hair didn't have my curl, and its eyes were glowing red like blood.
"Who the hell are you…" It asked.
"My own grandson dose not recognize me? I am the Roman Empire!" Cried Grandpa rome with again.
"Well that obvious, but in what form our you in our mind." It said slickly.
"I am just a humble grandfather, can't i visit my grandson?" Asked Grandpa rome.
It glared. "Well to bad. He's mine now." And suddenly i felt cold metal press against my throat, and i slammed my eyes shut.
"Ahh! Help me Grandpa rome!" I screamed.
I felt the knife vanish from my throat, and warm arms wrapped around me.
"What! How the hell…" Said the slick voice, and i opened my eyes to see he was standing about five feet away, clutching his hand, witch was stained red.
"I hate to hurt my own grandson, but you need to leave Veneziano alone, Feliciano." He saids seriously.
I looked up Grandpa rome.
"How the hell do you know my name!" He asked Furiously.
Grandpa rome smiled. "How could i not? You out mu grandchild, after all." He said with a kind grin.
"Grandpa rome, who is he…" I whimpered.
"I'll explain later, But now we need to get away from hear." Said Grandpa rome.
"No! Stop!" Cried Dark me.
Grandpa rome snapped his fingers, And everything vanished into white for a second, then we were standing in a field of flowers.
"Ah… So beautiful…" I whispered.
Grandpa rome smiled. "This is your happy place. Hear, anything you want can be real, you just have to believe it." He explained.
I thought of something i wanted deeply at the minute, then i felt something warm in my hand.
"Ve! Pasta!" I cried, and started eating.
"Heh! I thought you would chose something like that, but we need to talk about that person you saw back there." He said seriously.
I looked up at him, and the pasta disappeared with a pop.
"What was he…" I asked slowly.
Grandpa rome sighed, and ran a hand through his hair.
"He is, in a sense, you." He said tiredly.
I felt horror consume me.
"No! He's not you.. Well… He is and isn't. Let me explain it simpler." Grandpa rome paused for a moment and looked thoughtful. "Well, you know how you always feel good, and out nice and sweet? Even when people our mean to you?" He asked.
I nodded, not sure what to say.
"Well, when you just deflect those comments.. Well, no, its more like you shove them into a bottle in the back of your mind, and since your so nice all the time, you have a lot of bad thoughts in your bottle, and when you saw Germany being so cold, they just over flowed, creating that… Feliciano is what he calls himself." Grandpa rome explained.
I stared up at him. "What do i do…" I whispered, looking down. "Germany left me, and i'm all alone now…" I said sadly.
Grandpa rome put a hand on my shoulder, smiling widely.
" I know you'll figure it out, you are my grandson after all!" He said warmly. "Now, first order of business is to get your body back, but you'll have to summon Feliciano hear." He said Seriously.
I flinched. "No! I can't! He'll try to hurt me again!" I cried.
"You have to face your fear. I will help you, [but i won't be able to maintain physical form when he enters..." Said Grandpa rome.
"I… What then?" I asked sheepishly.
Grandpa rome smiled. "All you have to do after that is what you always do!"
I looked up at him, confused. "What.. Wait! Why are you fading!" I cried, and it was true! His dashing figure was now see through, and getting more and more transparent by the second.
Grandpa Rome smiled at me again. "I'm sorry, Italy, But my form can't stay hear much longer. Feliciano is trying to get in, and his presence is Interfering with mine…" He said with a bit of regret in his tone. "I wish i could have stayed longer and talked with you more…" He said sadly.
"No! Don't leave me!" I cried in fear.
"Italy i wont leave you! I never have! You just won't see me. Be brave, i love you, and i trust you to do the right thing, Ve~" He said, and he faded away completely.
"Grandpa rome leave you again?" Hissed a familiar voice, my voice.
I turned around and saw Feliciano standing there.
I didn't know what to do! Grandpa rome told me to do what i always do, But.. Well its worth a shot!
I let the image of a white flag pop into my mind, And i felt my fist grasp its handle.
"I surrender! White flag! White flag!" I cried in terror as Feliciano ran forward at me.
"No mercy!" He cried, and his fist collided with my face, and i flew backward.
"What do i do… I wave the white flag grandpa rome.. isn't that what i do?" I whispered, pain shaking my entire body.
I saw Feliciano charge me again, this time a knife was in his hand. "Italy's days of weakness die hear! I'll make us great, but to that, the oldest be replaced by the new!" he shouted and posed the knife to strike.
"What do i do!" I whimpered, and suddenly, an image flashed in my mind, of someone i cared for…
"Germany… Save me!" I screamed, and i saw a flash of silver metal, and slammed my eyes shut.
"Italy… I will always save you."
I felt my eyes fill with tears. as i gazed upon Germany, who had blocked the blow with his arm, blood flowing freely from the wound.
"I'm sorry…" I whispered, and the blond german smiled.
"What for? I've been an ass in the waking world, i should be apologizing to you." He said regretfully.
"Don't you remember, italy? He tricked you, and kicked you when you were down! he's the reason i'm hear!" Feliciano yelled.
I looked at Germany, who looked down.
"Thats why i'm hear to save you, i know i can't make it up to you right now, but i can start it." He said firmly, and ripped the knife out his arm, and turned on Feliciano.
"Find the door! I'll hold him off!" Germany called over his shoulder.
I looked at him. "But what about you-" I started to say but he cut me off. "I SAID MOVE, SOLDIER!" He yelled at me.
I nodded with a salute, and ran in the other direction.
"GET OUT, AND STOP ME!" I heard him yell.
I looked around, and saw a big brown door, and charged in that direction.
"No! Stop!" I heard Feliciano's shrill yell, and stopped to look over my shoulder.
To my horror, I saw him slice the knife through Germany's throat, then he charged toward me, leaving Germany's body to hit the floor.
"Run, Italy!" I heard Grandpa rooms voice in my ear, and i turned around threw the door open. "No!" Screamed Feliciano.
I walked forward, and Felt like a wave hit me, images, memories of fighting Prussia then escaping Russia's mansion flooded my brain.
"Ahh!" I cried, and i opened my eyes.
My breathing was horse, and i felt my heart beating a thousand miles per hour.
"G-g-germany.. Grandpa rome…" I mumbled.
I suddenly looked around, and saw i was in Big bro's car… "Big bro!" I yelled when i Realized he wasn't hear.
"What… Happened… Wheres Big brother spain.. and Japan…" I murmured.
I saw that keys were already in the ignition, but the gas tank was empty.
"Damnit…" I swore, and got out of the car… It looked like i was on the swiss border with Germany.
I started walking forward, feeling my heart drown with loneliness.
My brain started replaying all the horrible events of the day.
My heart stopped when i thought of Romano. I had left him… I had left them all…
"Don't. Move." Said a voice.
I froze. Now of all times… Well… I was on his territory.
Before i knew it i was on my knees with tears in my eyes.
"Just fire… I've screwed up worse then ever before…. And i can't fix it this time.. Theres no one left to turn to…" I said, letting the tears fall.
Switzerland Paused for a moment, then said, "Fine."
I heard him cock the gun, and i waited for him to pull the trigger.
"Wait, big brudar!" Came a soft voice.
It shocked me for a moment, and i looked over to Switzerlands little sister, Liechtenstein, standing there, looking at me with pity.
Switzerland froze for a moment. "Liechtenstein, go home, This is adult business." He said coldly.
She flinched at his tone, but she didn't move.
"But… i… Please don't shoot him switsy…" She pleaded, her eyes big and wide.
I felt overwhelmed, everything was.. strange…
"Why…" I asked slowly, only half aware of what i was saying. "Do you care….?" I asked softly.
She looked a bit flustered at the question.
"Don't talk to her like that!" Shouted Switzerland, pointing his gun at my forehead.
"Because… I… I don't think anyone really deserves to die…. No matter what they do.." She said quietly.
I looked at her, her big green eyes made me dizzy… So dizzy…
I fell to the ground, and blacked out.
Hi again! I hope this chapter was ok. I worked hard on it.
Uh.. Nothing to say, sorry its a cliffhanger again, but the next chapter is already halfway done.
Also, i'm sorry about the accents... I tried.. but i ended up killing them, so i had to go and just write in my own.
Ok, bye!
