"Look, do you even remember anything before the bomb?" Danny hiss as he wrap his fist around the boy's collar. His green eyes dull as he stare into the boy's eyes. Tears staining his rosy cheeks.

"I'm sorry, I do not." The boy look to the ground as he sighs. Reaching into his pocket, he pulls out a small bloody envelope address to Danny. "I found this in my pocket. If my few memories from this Akota serve me, you're Danny."

"Hold him," Danny releases him to Blake and Arthur. " I don't trust him."

Danny quickly rips the top of the envelope as he pulls out a letter. Opening it, Danny scans it also his face becomes too pale. Clutching the letter as tears roll down his cheek slowly as he looks to his siblings.

"She was being executed in a month time," Danny falls to his knees as he wept. He covers his mouth as sobs escape from his shaking body. "Akota would have chosen suicide over being gun down, but was talk out by him. His name is Caleb, he was one of the guards that watch her. Unlike others, he would chat with her and discuss events and family. When a bomb went off in the building, she was about to escape, but saw Caleb was dying. She choose him as the next North Dakota in her place. She wrote a letter before she disappear."

"I am sorry about your loss," Caleb looks at everyone. "If it helps I know a lot about the government's plan. I never did like my boss."

Arthur smiles at Blake nods, whom nods at Danny. Looking around, all the countries and states were smirking. He sighs heavily as he rubs his forehead.

"Let's hear your plan."

Alfred was leaning against the cold white wall as he came to. There was blood coating his blue jeans as blood rush back to his feet when he stood up. Rubbing his eyes, he limps towards his broken mirror. Wincing as he notice his bloodshot eyes and bruise face. His blonde hair seems to have darken with the emptiness in his heart. Something, or someone was missing, and he has not seen anyone since the introduction of the coming president.

"Is anyone here?" His voice broke into a cough as tears seems to run down his bloody cheeks. Touching them lightly as he looks around confuse on why he was crying. Closing his eyes, he could see a mental picture of the United States in his head. Most of the map was gray, but there was a black spot towards the top middle. Gasping as he realize one of the States was missing.

The doors were slam open quickly as David strolls in. His icy, dark blue eyes seem to have harden as he punch Alfred in the jaw. His breathing was uneven as he pulls out as cripple photo. Alfred hisses loudly when he lands on the chilly floor.

"Do you the this person? Is he a state?" David screams when when he pushes the photo into his face. "Because he had help two states escape from their cell. Then we are missing one person."

Looking at the photo, Alfred could gather the information on the boy with silver hair in the photo. Looking down so his bangs hid his eyes, Alfred shook his head. David clutch his teeth tightly; he gets up and leaves Alfred alone.

"Who is that boy?" A voice whispers quietly when the doors close.

"How long have you been there Nate?" Alfred smiles as a skinny boy with short blonde hair steps out of the corner.

"Being the most forgotten state in the North comes in handy." Nate shrugs as his light blue eyes twinkle. Brushing his light brown hair out of his eyes, he smiles sadly. "Who is that boy?"

Looking at the photo, Alfred hums lightly when he looks over at Nate. His blue euro shining bright as he haws at the point.

"He might be our key to freedom."
