Everyone looked down and saw Sealand standing on his floating fortress. The behemoth metal stronghold looked almost dwarfed by the height of the cliffs, but the kid in the sailor uniform could still be clearly seen, waving from the highest deck.
"Ahoy there!" Sealand called again, "I read about what was going on from the internet! So I came to save you guys!"
"Not you again!" Britain shouted, "Why do we have to be saved by you? Little brat-" A grappling hook hit Britain in the face, then fell and lodged into the turf at their feet.
"Sorry!" Sealand called up.
"Why you little-!"
"No time," France said, "Everybody go!"
"How?" China asked, standing by the rope on the edge.
Without a word, Australia took of his belt, threw it over the cord, and slid down, "Come on guys!" he shouted over the wind.
Everyone else slid down one by one. Kumajiro and Jessie clung for dear life on Canada's jacket, nearly choking him.
"Ve! Scary!" Italy said as he approached the edge.
"Go Italy!" Germany said, "I'll be right behind you."
"No!" Italy screamed, "I don't want to go! It's to scary!"
"We don't have time!" Germany yelled. The tornado creature was almost on top of them!
"No!" Italy panicked.
"GO!" Germany roared, then looped his own belt around Italy's hands and pushed him. Italy screamed as he slid down the line, then touched down on the deck, landing on his face.
Germany turned the face the creature before him, with another unearthly groan; the monster opened an abyss like mouth and lunged forward.
"It's going to swallow him!" China shouted.
"GERMANY NO!" Italy wailed.
Germany stared at the creature with defiance, blue eyes meeting the red one, then the demon tornado slammed it's face down against the cliff with such a force that chunks of rock blew into the air, throwing up a white dust cloud. The groaning wind began to die down and the back cloud body of the creature began to disperse.
"Hard to port!" Sealand shouted and the boat began to turn away from the cliffs.
Italy sunk to his knees, clinging to a metal pipe and sobbing quietly, "No..." Italy whimpered, "Not Germany no!"
"Wait," America broke a hole the drama, "Didn't Germany die last time?"
"Well, we thought he was dead," France said, "But what's your point?"
America sighed, "I really need to find a sidekick that doesn't DIE!"
"This may not be appropriate right now America-san..." Japan said.
"But it's true!" America said.
Then suddenly Jessie the koala leaped onto Australia's face, "Crikey!" he shouted as his head whipped around, "What's gotten into you?-" Then everyone turned and looked into the sky and saw a small shape drifting toward them.
"What in the world?" Sealand asked.
"GERMANY!" Italy shouted.
Yes, Germany sailed down to the deck of the fortress on a parachute, landing with a "thud" and then an "Ompff!" as Italy tackled him. Everyone crowded around Germany as he pushed Italy off.
"How are you alive, aru?" China asked.
"Uh, guys?" Canada said, pointing.
"And where did the parachute come from?" Britain added.
"Guys?" Canada tugged on America's jacket, but still no one noticed.
Germany shrugged off the chute, "I've made a habit to carry one vith me vherever I go... But that's not important!"
"You're right!" Sealand shouted from the upper deck, everyone turned to look at the small child, who held a sort of black book in his hand.
"What the heck?" America raised an eyebrow.
"I was trying to tell you that Sealand was being suspicious..." Canada muttered.
"Britain," Russia said, "That's one of your magic books, da?"
"I was wondering where the hell that went!" Britain fumed, "Put that down Sealand! It's not a toy!"
Sealand grinned and began to chant an evil spell.
"Um, does anyone else notice that Sealand-san is a bad guy?" Japan asked.
"That's right fools!" Sealand laughed, "I've been given power! And now, no one will ignore me! And I'll finally be a country!" The book in Sealand's hands began to glow.
"Run!" Australia shouted.
"To late!" Sealand smiled. The spell went off with a giant flash and all the good guys hit the deck unconscious...
(( I think I like it that we added Australia into this, he's a really fun character to write for. Also, did you guess before that it was Sealand? If you did I award you this invisible magic bicycle! If not, then an invisible duck will do... Quack!))
