Chapter ten
Japan's POV
One morning I received an odd letter from an unknown person. The letter itself was not too bad however. It told me that someone had in fact found Koneko, that she was alright, and that she would be returned to me in a few days. All of this was good, but it did not stop me from wondering where she was exactly.
After reading the letter, I showed it to Greece. He seemed happy with the news, especially since it meant that she was still alright. We would just need to wait a few days for her.
England's POV
It had been three days since I sent Japan the letter about Koneko, and since then I had spent the time studying her with Germany. I had not found too much about her in those few days, but I was hopeful and had one more day. On that day, what was interesting me about her was the fact that her personality seemed to change.
At the meeting the girl acted like a happy little girl. During the time I studied her however, she seemed to act differently. Instead of smiling she would frown at us and act grumpy. At first I theorized that she was simply upset about Germany and me fussing over her in what I could assume as an odd way. Then while I was petting her head I noticed that her accent was beginning to change.
Wanting to get Germany's opinion on this, I called him over to listen to her. He agreed that it was rather odd, and asked me what this meant. I thought for a few minutes before I finally said, "well, she is made of clay; which is known for retaining things. Perhaps she has been absorbing our personality and more. Not just ours either, she most likely had been doing the same thing to everyone else who has had contact with her."
"What do you mean by more?" Germany asked me.
"I'm not exactly sure how to put it, it's more of a hunch, but she may be able to absorb other parts; knowledge, language, that kind of thing," I explained.
"Is it harmful?" He asked while eyeing her. I failed to have an answer to this however. If she had been absorbing other people's personality and such, then the same was true for her absorbing from me. I did not feel any different however, so I decided that I had some more things to look into.
When I told this to Germany, he was silent for a moment before replying, "Remember England, you only have until tomorrow evening. Then she's going back."
As he said this, the girl looked up at the two of us and with a huff whined, "No! I want Otousan and Pateras now."
To this Germany made as if to pat her head, only to stop himself and reply, "Soon, Koneko, just be patient."
She gave out another whine before sitting down on the corner of the desk and trying to ignore us. A few minutes later, I could hear slight sniffling from the area she was in.
As always, please review~
