I had this all typed up. And then I closed the window. Not happy. If the chapter is shit, it's because I messed up and got lazy with re-typing.
Disclaimer: You know the drill. OTHER CHAPTERS.
"We need a game plan for what to do. We need to protect ourselves and the other nations." Germany stated.
"And get the captured ones back!"
"Yes, Italy, that too."
"Maybe," Italy suggested, "we should warn the other nations."
"No," America said quietly. "This is like a war. We don't know who to trust. Blind trust is a very bad idea. Maybe we could just fight back. They're just three kids, and we outnumber them anyway."
"America-san, that's a bad idea, as well. They may just be kids, but they still captured two nations. Canada-san is hard to take down, and we've all seen how violent he can get in hockey. Romano-kun may be a coward, but he can be tough when he needs to be."
America. America! Hey! Hey, Alfred! Pick up the phone, you bloody git!
America jumped, pulling out his cell phone and putting it on speaker.
"What's up, Iggy?"
"Care to explain why there are three kids at my door at 10:30 at night? Trick-or-treating is your bloody tradition, isn't it?"
Japan and America locked gazes, eyes widening in horror.
"Iggy, back away from the door. NOW!" America barked.
"What?"
"England-san, please, back away from the door! Don't answer the door!"
"What the bloody hell is wrong with you? It's just a few kids."
"Trick-or-treat!" the three kids shrieked, their voices muffled by the door.
"England, please! DON'T ANSWER THE DOOR!" America yelled.
"Why not?" England shot back.
"Look. Those three 'kids' captured Canada and Romano, and even had the guts to attack Japan. Do NOT allow yourself to become their next victim!"
"Okay. I'll stay away from the door. Happy? Or should I sneak out the back door and run over to your house?"
"Japan's."
"What?"
"I'm at Japan's house, actually."
"... Fine. I'll be there soon."
"Thank you."
Click.
"Thank goodness, we prevented another attack!" Germany said, a relieved smile on his face.
Meanwhile...
Lock, Shock, and Barrel watched as England left his house through the back door.
"Drat! Looks like that Japan person warned him somehow," Lock stated, annoyed.
"Looks like we need to find another victim," said Barrel.
Shock walked over, looking triumphant. "There's another guy next door, completely unaware. Let's go get HIM."
Back at Japan's house, about a half hour later...
As England walked up to Japan's house, he heard rustling in the nearby bushes. Diving in, he grabbed the collar of the person hidden in the bush.
"Hey! Not awesome! Let me go!" the guy England had captured yelled.
"Prussia? What the bloody hell are you doing?" England asked.
"I was out on a really long walk when decided to visit Japan, but his door was locked when I got here," Prussia explained. "I hung out for a while, looking for a way in, but there wasn't one. After about an hour, I was ready to give up and would've gone home, but then West, Italy, and America came over to his house. Now, I'm just spying and being awesome to figure out what's going on."
"Well then, what are we waiting for? You're ready to go in now, right? Brilliant. Let's go." Grabbing the silverette's arm, England dragged him up to Japan's door and knocked.
GOOD NEWS. GOOD THINGS CAN COME FROM RE-WRITING. In the original, Iggy got captured, causing America to freak out and almost slit his wrists. So... yay. Now he's meeting up with the good guys.
Happy Holidays, merry Christmas (belated, I know), etc etc.
Next chappie will be back in Halloween town. Check chapter title from next chapter on for character who has 1st person POV.
