Warning: Pirate!England (America: Crap, you don't know what you're in for...)
A decade has gone by, and a few things have changed since then. First of all, Hailey and Francis finally came out and told England and Abby about their forbidden love. The reaction was as expected. Abby's inner Sparta came out, and France went home with fourteen broken bones, two black eyes, and other personal "problems" (more than he already has). Speaking of relationships, Alex and Abby have been going strong as usual.
Dalibora (still called Gwendolyn by England) and Sadiq fell in love recently, and they've had some interesting experiences, mainly regarding her mother's (Hungary's) hatred for the Turk. Mr. Austria is raising little Walachia for Dalibora, and the Micronation is causing the aristocrat some trouble. There are a few new next generation characters that will finally get the honor of being in this story! England is still forever alone- and a pirate?
"Welcome aboard!" The cheery England says, pushing us on his massive pirate ship. He decided to take the entire class of young almost-nations on a little "voyage on the high seas" Even though I'm an official nation, I decided to go to help Iggy out. It'll be nice to have a little break from the other annoying countries (a.k.a. Poland America, and Canada).
Once we're on the boat, England gives me a clipboard with the attendance list, and retreats to the captain's quarters. My eyes try to decipher the Brit's scribbles:
Abby: Daughter of England, VERY DANGEROUS. Present
Hailey: Daughter of Scotland. Also extremely dangerous. Present
Colin: America's son. Virtually invincible (throw off ship at first chance). Present
Mackenzie: not a Hetalia fan whatsoever, but permitted to take the trip (she's a hobbit, so England keeps her around because she's magical) Present
Brooke: what's the point? She wouldn't be here anyway. Not present
Amanda: not present (Speaking of which, they're still missing from the glacier incident. reminder- I need to take care of that soon)
Austin: son of Sweden. Present
Rich: Poland's little brother. Is like his brother in many ways. Present
Matthew jr: The son of Canada. (Who?) Present-
Wait a minute. This means I actually still have to deal with Poland, America, and Canada, just younger and more obnoxious versions of them. I much rather be at my sexy Turkish boyfriend's house right now.
"Stop thinking about your sexy Turkish boyfriend! There are children here!" Mackenzie yells at me.
"I didn't know hobbits could read minds."
"Only the evil ones can, so just ME! MWAAAHAHAHAHA!" She runs away, screaming. I let out a sigh. This trip can't be THAT bad- can it?
Scratch that. I'm stuck on a boat with eight other teenage future ninja nations (minus the ninja part) who are either extremely dangerous or annoying. I didn't think this through. "Attention people!" I announce over the chatter. "You are now part of the crew, and since I'm the first mate, I will be in charge! That means you must do what I say no matter how stupid it sounds! Captain Kirkland will also be in charge, but I have a feeling he will be drinking into the night after dealing with you! Any questions?" my inner Prussian starts to show as I rattle off rules and orders.
"Will there be vodka, kolkolkol?"
"BEER IS MUCH BETTER! Kesesesese!"
"Raki* sounds nice too." Three distinct voices ring in my ears. Ivan, my dad, and my sexy Turkish boyfriend are on the ship with us. I just stand there, unable to utter a word.
"So like, you, Turkey, and the creepy Russian guy are like a threesome, and your dad has to supervise?" Rich asks, twirling his lack of hair with his finger, as Ivan gets an evil look in his eyes.
"Rich, go to the corner and think about what you just said!" I break out of my daze.
"I didn't do anything-" Before he could finish, Sadiq slowly pulls out his kilij**, and Rich slowly makes his way to the corner.
"Ivan, why don't the two of us show these students to their cabins." The Prussian nudges Ivan, before they lead the others (including Rich, who stormed out of time out to get away from Sadiq) to the cabins. Once they're gone, I rush to Sadiq's embrace. His lips brush against mine for only a second before his trademark smirk appears on his face.
"You didn't think I'd make you handle your former classmates without a little help?" he kisses me again. "Plus, Eyebrows and I used to be pretty tight back in his pirate days."
All of a sudden, England comes out onto the deck and acknowledges Sadiq. "Well, it's a pleasure to see my old friend on a ship with me again!" England smiles brightly, before seeing the Russian and the Prussian heading towards us. At that point, Arthur's mood completely flips, and he looks like he's about to explode. "WHY THE 'ELL DID YOU BRING THAT WANKER WITH YOU?" I think he was talking about Russia, but both seem offended. The Brit takes a deep breath. "I'm deeply sorry for my outburst. What I meant to say is that there is no alcohol on this vessel."
As if on cue, the two uninvited guests jump off of the ship. Hailey flies out of nowhere, mace in hand, towards England. "WHAT DID YOU SAY YOU BOGGIN CLATTY DIDDY OF AN ENGLISHMAN***?" she is completely enraged at this point, but Arthur doesn't look frazzled at all.
"I see you've been working on your sailor mouth lately. I have one bottle of whisky especially for you. By the way, since you and Abby seem to have the best sailor mouths of the crew, the two of you will man the crow's nest." he hands Hailey the bottle, and she rushes to find Abby.
"So now there's no alcohol on the ship?" I ask. England nods.
"Yes. All the desired goods are on a Spanish ship that will be soon crossing our path. We're going to raid it."
"This is planned, right?"
"If you say so. One more thing, Gwendolyn, you and Mask are in charge of discipline." The Brit finishes speaking, and enters the captain's quarters, leaving us behind.
"Does he seem a little out of character?" I ask Sadiq (
"Yes, but no. He's starting to convert back to pirate England, but it's only temporary. Anything can happen when Eyebrows is captain. You could fall asleep in your cabin one night, and wake up in a glass box with Spain the next." he shivers from the thought. "Hey, should we go give the students some stupid jobs?" he changes the subject.
"Sure."
Five minutes later, I finally catch, stab, and drag Rich and Colin up to the main deck. "Now swab it! It will build character and muscles you don't have!" I laugh. It's actually kind of fun bossing little versions of America and Poland around. I also have Matthew junior cleaning every speck of dust off of the ship's baby grand, which is over three hundred years old. Austin is doing whatever he does, and Mackenzie is sitting in the corner because she's a naughty hobbit.
"SHIP FULL OF BOOZE AHEAD! KILL THE CAPTAIN!" Abby screams at the top of her lungs. I'm not really sure if she was talking about the captain of the other ship or England (Everybody wants to kill Iggy when he's exposed to alcohol).
The following hour is a blur. Swords are clashing, bottles are breaking, and chaos is amuck throughout the deck of the boat.
Mackenzie: "GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME BASTARDO! YOU HAVE A STUPID FACE, AND IT MAKES ME WANT TO PUNCH IT!
Spain: You remind me so much of my little Lovi! I've been searching for a girl who can understand Romano's swears and anger problems. You're going to be the perfect girlfriend for him.
Mackenzie: I'M NOT MEETING ROMANO, YOU IDIOT! #%*£+^^+¥£€^%^*¥••~%^¥¥• (or something like that, anyway)
Abby (casually twirling a knife in her hand, watching it all go down): So that's why she was invited on this trip...
I finish a bottle of Czech beer England gave me at the bar, and tell Sadiq I'm retiring for the night. Once I enter my room, a dizzy sensation sweeps over me, and I pass out before I can reach the bed.
My eyes flutter open to find that I'm stuck in some sort of glass box. Maybe the Turk is playing a joke on me. He did mention something like this, right? All of a sudden, a familiar voice cuts through the darkness. His emerald eyes pierce through me as I see a knife in each hand. His words are slurred as he enters the box with me. "I think I need a bit of the other before I leave this boat."
When I wake up, I'm in a hospital room with Hailey and Abby staring creepily back at me. My arms and torso are all bandaged, and I feel like a bullet went through my head. "Can one of you give me a recap of what happened? I want to make sure I have a valid reason to attack England after this."
"Well..." Abby starts. "There's no easy way to say this, but-"
"England got all drunk like the idiot he is, and decided to invade your vital regions. Now all of Slovakia belongs to him." Sadiq calmly says, entering the room. "I'm going to avenge you! I'll send my troops and get the land back-"
"No. It's not necessary." As soon as I say it, Hailey and Abby slowly back out of the door.
"Why? I'm trying to help you! I just want you to be secure as a nation! I love you and I want don't want a psycho like Eyebrows getting in your way!"
"He is not a psycho." I growl. "He was just drunk! Weren't you the one who said that he became a different man on the sea?"
"I see how it is, Dalibora." the way he says my name sounds like he's spitting out flames. "I hope you two will be happy together." he turns his back to me, and heads towards the door, stopping at the doorway. "I mean, what you would do without him?" his last sentence wasn't bitter, but sorrowful, as he exits the room.
Tears start to swell up in my eyes when my father enters. I do my best not to cry because the Prussian believes that awesome people never cry. (This is wrong of course. Even the awesome Prussia cries when he thinks nobody is around). "What do you want?" I barely choke out.
"I wanted to see if you were okay. I heard what your now unawesome ex said. Maybe he'll come to his senses, and get back together with you."
"I don't want him back." the words I say surprise even me at this point, but I know it's the truth. After what happened last night, Sadiq and my relationship would never feel the same. "I'm sorry, but can you please leave?"
"Of course, but before I go, let me tell you that the roots of your hair are turning white. You're starting to catch my awesome, and you can't do anything about it! Kesesesese!" He slams the door behind him as he leaves.
Please tell me I'm dreaming.

*Raki is a fermented anise beverage which is said to be the national drink of Turkey
**A kilij is basically a curved Turkish sword
***A "boggin clatty diddy" is Scottish slang for "foul-smelling, dirty, boob (as in idiot)" I've found that about half of the Scottish insults I found meant "smelly", and they all sound pretty amusing.
This chapter took forever. Now I have to write a chapter about Brooke and Amanda- AND Mackenzie meeting Romano. The Amazing Abby (yes, she is actually real) is also writing an extremely long (I hope) chapter (she's amazing and Prussia level awesome). By the way, ARTHUR KIRKLAND IS MINE AND I DON'T CARE THAT IS COOKING IS TERRIBLE BECAUSE THAT'S WHY THE BRITISH HIRE FRENCH COOKS (duh, read the manga. It's true). As you can see, I've turned into an England fangirl, and a person who skips certain scenes because I'm too lazy to switch the rating to M.
Dalibora gives you cyber beer!
Prussia also gives you cyber beer!
Hailey gives you lots of cyber booze!
Spain gives you cyber Advil for your cyber hangover!
Sadiq (Turkey) gives you cyber sexiness!
Abby throws cyber knives in your general direction!
