Hello everybody~ I know it's a bit odd that I am updating faster than usual, but that's what happens when I finally have too much free time. Any way, like always, comments and ideas are always welcome. Now, let's get this chapter started!
"M-My puppeteer... W-What happened?" Luciano asked as he stood up, Italy just looked away in response, which made both Gillan and Luciano even more worried. "Trust me... You wouldn't understand..." Italy sadly implied as tears began to stream down his face. "My puppeteer, please, tell me what is troubling you." Luciano pleaded as he gave Italy a hug, but Italy gently swatted him away before he could. "Like I said... You wouldn't understand..." Italy replied, this time a bit more firm. However, Luciano didn't notice, so he continued pleading. "My puppeteer, please tell me, I only want to help you." "Enough Luciano." Italy replied, sounding slightly irritated. "M-My puppeteer, please, I-" "I SAID ENOUGH!" Both Gillan and Luciano immediately backed away in shock, they had never heard their puppeteer yell at them before. After a small period of silence, Luciano mumbled, " I'm sorry my puppeteer, I didn't mean to anger you." With a sigh, Italy replied, "No, I'm sorry. I honestly didn't mean to snap at you like that, I'm just... Frustrated that's all." "Is it about the pendant?" Gillan asked, getting Italy to sigh and nod in response. "Si, it's trying to get me to agree with Alfred, and it's trying to talk me into helping him hypnotize the mini nations too..."
"Than if it's causing so much trouble, why don't we just destroy it?" Gillan asks. Both Italy's and Luciano's eyes widen in realization. "That... Might actually work." Italy replied, after thinking it over.
~Meanwhile~ "This asshole over here kept on moving out of the f-cking way right when I was about to catch his ass!" Lovino growled, Spain just sighed in response. "Oh Lovi, you really need to keep an eye out for walls when your running." "Shut it tomato bastard!" Lovino growled again as his face turned red slightly from embarrassment and anger. "Aw~ You starting to look like a cute little tomato again~!" Spain cooed, getting Lovino to knock him down to the floor with a big headbutt. "F-ck you tomato ass!" Lovino screamed as he turned redder. "Ugh... My head... What the hell happened..?" Everyone turned back to find that Matt had slowly gotten up, only slightly noticing that his shoulder and the back of his head were bleeding. "Well your see Matt, somehow your double had hypnotized you when you had let your guard down. And because of that, we lost Luciano again." Francois informed."Well shit." Matt muttered. "Well now that all the fighting is out of the way, can I get a little bit of help in getting Oliver, both of the Russia's, Prussia, and the Baltics into the living room so that I could patch them up please?" Flavio asked as he picked up Oliver.
"Fine, I guess I could lend a hand." Matt grumbled as he tried to pick up Ivan, only for Spain to pick him up instead. "Lo seinto mi amigo, but you need to go and wait in the living room so that you could get patched up." "Oh please, I have gotten hurt far worse than this and you know it." Matt argued as he picked up Viktor. Nearby, Hungry picked up Prussia, while the 1P Baltics picked up their 2Ps.
~Meanwhile~ "My Puppeteer, I think we should ask Arthur what would happen before we try anything." Luciano inquired as Italy took out his pendent. "Hmm... Your right. I don't wanna risk anymore than what we are risking all ready." Italy answered, after thinking it over a bit. "When Arthur comes back, I will ask him what would happen if the pendent breaks." Both Luciano and Gillan nodded in response as Italy put his pendent back in his pocket. "When Arthur comes back, I shall tell him that you need to see him." Luciano informed with a bow. With a sigh, Italy replied, "Ok, and you don't need to bow to me by the way." After, Italy left the room. "...As you wish." Luciano replied as he fallowed Italy out of the room. "...I hope you know what your doing my puppeteer." Gillan stated to nobody in particular before he too, left the room.
~Meanwhile~ "Their we go~! All patched up~!" Flavio inquired as he finished patching up the last of the countries, which was Matt. "Finally." Matt grunted as he got up from the chair he was in. As soon as they had entered the living room, Flavio was having a hard time finding the first aid kit. Forgetting that he had put it in a nearby drawer after he healed Luciano after he got himself hurt. "Ugh... My head... What happened..? Why am I tied up?" Everyone turned their attention back to Matthew, who was currently wiggling in his bounds. His eyes were no longer red, they had returned to their natural violet. "Um..." Matthew looked at everyone in confusion. Why was he tied up? And why did he suddenly want to return to Canada? After a moment, Matt untied Matthew and explained, "Sorry about tying you up like that Chick-a-Dee. But you weren't exactly yourself at that moment." "I wasn't?" Matthew questioned. "Nope, you were under that hoser's control. And, surprisingly, you somehow managed to hypnotize me as well." Matt answered.
"And to make matters' f-cking worse, we also lost Luciano again!" Kuro growled. "$1.00 in the swear jar please~" Oliver giggled as he put his swear jar in Kuro's face. "No. F-ck off." Kuro grumbled, pushing Oliver's swear jar away. "$2.00 in the swear jar please~" Oliver pestered as he put his swear jar in Kuro's face again. "Ugh, fine!" Kuro growled as he put $2.00 in Oliver's swear jar. "Thank you poppet~" Oliver replied as he put his swear jar away. "Whatever." Kuro huffed as he sat on the couch. "Um... Why do I have a sudden urge to go back to Canada though?" Matthew asked, all the rest of the countries looked at him in confusion.
~Meanwhile~ "Were back! And we got pendents galore! One pendent for every mini nation that we know of." Alfred gloated as he walked through the front door with a box full of pendents, with Andres and Aurthur following close behind. "Ve~ I'm so glad that you came back sa-wow! Those are a lot of pendents." Italy remarked as he looked at the box in Alfred's hands. "You got that right! There's no way that the others will defeat us now!" Alfred laughed as he sat the box on the couch. Italy looked at the box in worry, if Alfred succeeds in his plan, than he would no doubt become unstoppable. "My puppeteer, are you alright?" Arthur asked, snapping Italy out of his thoughts. "Hm? O-Oh, si, im fine. I need to talk to you by the way, fallow me." "As you wish." Arthur replied as he fallowed Italy, leading him into Italy's bedroom. "Arthur... When I say 'now', I need you to fight against Alfred and I, no matter what. Ok?" Italy commanded. "As you wish." Arthur responded with a bow. This got Italy to quietly groan, "Please don't bow to me, it makes me feel guilty. Any way, I have something to ask." Arthur nodded, signaling for Italy to continue. "What would happen if the pendents break when someone is under their influence?"
"The person that is under the influence of the pendent will get fully taken over, permanently. Because it would free the magic that is inside of the pendent. The same goes for those who are under the hypnotic effects of the pendent." Arther informed, making Italy pale greatly in response.
