Disclaimer: Hetalia and the Hunger Games are not mine, M'kay?
Here's chapter 4.
Enjoy.
Feliciano waited in the large waiting room alone. He sat on a comfy large armchair, trying to figure what he should do. He didn't know how to fight, he wasn't that smart and has the attention span of a squirrel. He's not a warrior who should go fighting others to the death gladiator style, he's a chief who specializes in pasta for goodness sake! For him to win would be a miracle. I have to at least try, he thought to himself. He heard the door open and turned his attention to Kabasal who was speaking to someone as he entered.
"You get ten minutes to speak with him. You may give him a gift if you choose but it will have to count as his country gift. I'll leave you with him," Kabasal finished. Lovino walked in and staggered back as his brother tackled him in a hug.
"Get off of me! I came here to talk to you," Lovino grumbled.
"Lovino, I'm so glad to see you! It's horrible here; it's cold, Kabasal doesn't want to talk to me, I've been alone here for an hour and I haven't eaten anything yet," Feliciano rambled. "So how are you? Did they get mad or something because I volunteered?"
"No, but our friends are heading to the airport to head to whichever country they think will win. Those assholes didn't think you'll make it but I know better. You're a Vargas! You share my blood and it's about time you show it. When you go out there I want you to make your country proud and get out there alive. You understand?" Lovino asked him. Feliciano nodded in response.
"But that's not I came here for. I wanted to give you this," He said as he took out a box. Inside was a pin shaped as a white circle with a green Italy in the middle. The design reminded him of how he would draw the earth as a kid, not remembering completely how the other countries look like so he would just draw his own. "It was Grandpa Romero's, he always said it was his lucky pin and that's why he was able to make it to the Olympics all those years ago. He lost it on the day he had to compete and lost the game. He believes it's because of this pin that he lost. But later that day he found it in Grandma's purse. She was having complications on getting pregnant at the time and on that day when she had the pin, she discovered she was pregnant with Papa. Papa had this pin when he proposed to Mamma. Now I'm giving it to you and you're going to win the Hunger Games and you're going to tell your grandchildren about how you won and saved Italy. Don't lose it, you need the luck," Lovino said. He handed the pin over to Feliciano who looked it over.
"I-I don't know what to say," said Feliciano. He looked up and saw that his brother was holding back tears. Feliciano opened his arms and Lovino accepted the invitation for a hug.
"Don't die, Feliciano. If you died, I would still have time to leave the country and save myself but I would live an empty life without my stupid brother by my side to mess things up," Lovino told him.
"I know, I promise I'll live," whispered Feliciano.
The door clicked open and Lovino shoved Feliciano away and sniffed as he had not been caught crying and hugging his little brother. He looked back to Feliciano and nodded before walking out. Kabasal waited at the door and closed it behind him as Lovino left.
"Feliciano, we'll be leaving in thirty minutes. If you need to use the restroom please do so now because we're not going to take any rest stops.
"I'm fine," said Feliciano.
Kabasal then turned serious and sat down at the armchair across from Feliciano.
"Take a seat Feliciano, we don't have much time so I should tell you this before we go to the ships. This isn't the first Hunger Games ever held. The Atakano's hold one for every planet they conquer and they never go fully through with their promises. They don't let whatever race they conquer live peacefully alongside them. No, they turn you into servants and slaves. The majority of the Kingdom of Guraster is not Atakano, instead it's the races they've conquered over the years. Yet they rule over us with an iron fist. They make sure you end up saving your country from death but not from pain."
"In the entire history of the Hunger Games, never has anyone volunteered to take anyone's place. Yet here you are, taking the place of your brother. And then there was that Russian man Ivan who didn't even let them have a chance to announce tribute to volunteer. We have watched over you humans for weeks and I have to say I have never seen such a determined race that will do the insane for the ones they love. The power and drive that the Atakano's have is driven by greed and that power can never compete with the drive of passion."
"They conquered my planet long ago and I was chosen as tribute. I survived and so did my people but they couldn't leave it at that. I used their own Arena against them to win and they killed my family as punishment. They say there are no rules except win, but there are many. Yet they are all unspoken and every time someone breaks one. They will do the same to you and your people, I know this. One of you will win and one of your countries will survive yet they'll find something, anything, to use as an excuse to punish you," Kabasal explained.
"W-why are you telling me this?" Feliciano asked, completely confused on how exactly he fits into the equation.
"I'm telling you this because after all this time, we are finally going to revolt. We could never do such a thing, we have waited for the right moment, right race and right circumstances. Your race is the one to lead us to victory and to take the Atakanos out of power. We formed a secret society call the Circle Order and we have worked for most of us to be representatives at the same. We will work together and organize the tributes to make alliances during the games and prepare you for our plan. We'll be able to save your planet and hopefully prevent anymore race's to go through what we have."
"We'll wait for the right moment during the games to revolt. Matara and the Council of Guraster are the only one's with brains among the Atakanos but that's all they need to stay in control. We'll play the Sponsors and Gamemakers into unknowingly helping us with our plan. We'll make these games the most intense that they'll be so distracted that we'll be able to catch them off guard. I've already gone through this with your President and I've already checked to see if the others make the other countries aware. Unfortunately we won't be able to save all the tributes, we don't have enough members as Representatives. So not all the tributes would be in on the plan but they would die for a greater cause. The Atakanos always wait until the Games are entirely over to destroy whatever they need to destroy. We'll stop that from even happening and we'll be able to save the entire planet and most of the tributes."
"So what do you say Feliciano. Are you willing to risk everything to save your planet?" Kabasal asked.
"Yes," Feliciano answered.
"Good. I'll update you throughout the next few weeks and tell you on which tributes to ally with," said Kabasal. He got up, stretched and walked to the door.
"I'll come and get you when it's time. Thank you for taking out side, I promise you won't regret it," He said as he left, Feliciano watching, left to wonder on what will happen next.
That's it for Chapter 5, hoped you enjoy. Favorite, follow and review if you like :D
