AN: Hey everyone! Hope you are all having an awesome day! I was happy that I was able to trick you guys into thinking that it was England. Sadly I feel like Canada really is invisible because no one noticed that Russia was cheating on him. Did anyone notice? No one? Pour Canada. I kind of feel bad because I do like Ivan but he has been the bad guy in my stories so far. I like him both as the antagonist and the protagonist so I might start a story with him as a good guy. But for now, he's the villain Anyways, I'm glad you guys are enjoying it. I enjoy writing this :D. I'm sorry that it's a short chapter and it's been a while sense I have updated this. So sorry for the wait, hope you guys enjoy it and have an awesome day!

Recap:

Alfred's eyes widened in surprise. The harshness of Japan's words caught him off guard. The Japan he remembers was a quiet thoughtful man. "W-What? What did I do?" His question earned him another smack across the face.

"Because of you, I am nothing but an empty nation like Prussia-kun. Because of you I lost everything." Japan hissed.

Alfred's heart stopped. "I… did… what?"

Japan stared down at the larger man, his eyes scanning his face. "Do you not remember? Answer me." He commanded.

Alfred stared back at Japan. He stared into his eyes and said. "I do not remember. I don't remember anything that has happened."

A tense silence filled the room as they stared at one another. They observed each other, wondering if the Alfred was telling the truth. Japan loosened his grip on Alfred. "I will refresh your memory Alfred-kun," He forced Alfred up and pushed him into a nearby chair. "What is the last thing you remember?"

Alfred sighed from the chair. He was happy that Japan decided to give him a chance instead of going straight for the kill. "The last thing I remember…," he paused for a moment in thought. "It was probably that year you paid for my Christmas party." He smiled at the memory.

Japan had a small smile on his face but it went away quickly. "You missed much… if you are telling me the truth."

"I am." Alfred confidently stated.

Japan stood still, wondering what to do. After what felt like ages he finally spoke. "World War three started February 16th, 2112 and ended 5 August, 2134. It was a long and horrible war. But before that was your war with England."

"Arthur and I had another war?" Alfred was surprised.

"Yes. It was a Cold war. Like the one you had with Russia. You also introduced your Idea to terraform Mars to the other nations."

"SO IVAN STOLE MY IDEA! THAT BASTARD!" Alfred shouted.

Japan sighed. "Alfred-kun, please focus," Alfred gave him a sheepish smiled and nodded. "The war lasted for a while. You and Britain were at each other throats for quite a while but nothing really changed. None of the other countries thought that it would amount to anything serious. Then one day you went missing."

"Missing? What happened?"

"I do not know. You were missing for years. No one knows where you went or what happened to you. When you returned you refused to meet with the other nations. You became very anti social. Shortly after your return Russia declared War on you. You then appeared on my doorstep asking me to join you… Y-you were my friend. I trusted you so I followed you into the war," Japan's fist clenched at his sides and his eyes narrowed into a glare as he recalled the memory. "Many nations joined the war. It was you, Germany, France, Canada, Greece, and me against Russia, Spain, England, and China. Many other countries got caught in between."

"England was working with Russia?! He hates Russia!" Alfred exclaimed.

Japan nodded. "It was a shock for everyone but… you didn't seem surprised. You seemed to think that it made sense. Everyone else thought that it was weird and that they were going to self destruct. The war continued and as it dragged on many countries started to fall. One day England and China attacked me out of nowhere and your fleet could have made it in time to help me. Instead you ignored me and used the opportunity to attack China while he was focused on me. It was a major victory for you… but my land, my people… I… Was burned," Japan's voice shook in hatred as he glared down at Alfred. "England took me hostage and has been using me as a servant ever sense! I lost my land, my dignity, my pride: There I learned that you were the one who gave England and China the anonymous tip to attack where I was weakest. You sacrificed me so that you could take over China," Suddenly a blade slipped out from underneath Japan's sleeve and he pressed it to America's throat. A drop of blood dripped from the shallow cut that the movement formed. "I trusted you! I cared for you! You were my friend and you handed me over to the enemy! I knew when you returned that you weren't the same but I foolishly believed that you didn't change. Now I run into you again and you are telling me that you don't remember any of that!" Japan growled and pressed the blade closer to Alfred's flesh.

Alfred only felt misery as he looked at his former friend. "I'm sorry," he whispered. "I don't remember any of it. I don't know why I acted that way or how I ended up like that… I…" His words trailed off. A cold tear trickled down his cheek.

"That's a shame. The only one who had the answers was you," Alfred stared at Japan, unsure what to say. He then closed his eyes, wondering if Japan was going to kill him. He got his answer when the Cold blade was removed from his neck.

Japan was looking down at him with a blank expression. "You maybe the Alfred that I remember becoming friends with… I will spare you today but prove me wrong and I will be back to kill you. If you prove that you are not the same as you were during the war then I can help you," He walked over and picked up his helmet. "I was sent her by England to locate the rebels. I will report to him and tell him where this base is. You and your friends have five days to clear out." He slipped the helmet onto his head and walked out the door.

After the door closed behind Japan Alfred leaned back in the chair, his head swimming with what he learned. He gently touched the shallow cut on his neck. Alfred sat there in silence as he thought about what Japan said. He also thought about the flash back he had during the raid. Japan's words kept on bring it back. '… Are they… related…' he wondered.

Nearly an hour passed when he finally stood up. "I better tell everyone…" Brushing himself off He stepped out of the room and went to look for the others.

"WHAT?!" South exclaimed. He stared at Alfred like as if he was an idiot. "Ya just let him walk away!?"

"It's a chance to regain an old friend!" Alfred argued.

Adam nodded. "I'm with Alfred. If we can get Japan on our side we will have someone on the inside."

South frowned at him. "Don't cha already have people on the inside?"

"We do, but they cannot stay in one place for too long or else people will start to get suspicious. And do not forget that Kiku is a nation." He reminded South.

South groaned. "I'll alert the men that we are moving to Revelations and abandoning the base."

Adam nodded. "It will be too suspicious if we move all of them to Revelation. When we get there we will split them up. Some will stay there while other will head to Alpha and Omega." South nodded and went to make the announcement.

Adam put his hand of Alfred's shoulder. "We should head out. Washington is already back at the base." Alfred nodded and followed Adam out.

Days later an old fashion ship sailed across the new waters. Its sails pulsed with solar energy and gathered the energy to power the ship. The crew relaxed as they watched the clouds go by. Some admired the land, the shore that they just departed from, as it faded away into the distance. In the captain's cabin Arthur Kirkland, England, gazed out at the sea. Adjusting his red coat with gold trim, he sat down at his desk. "I was surprised to see you back so soon. I never thought I would see you at the port. After all when I sent you out on your mission I thought it would take you longer." England smiled at Japan, who gave England a strained smile of his own.

"Yes, it was easier than we both anticipated. They are at the old Alpha base, the one that was abandoned thirty years ago." Japan informed him.

England nodded. "I see. We should send someone to take care of them," His green eyes shinned with approval. "I'm glad you figured out their location so quickly. The sooner we get rid of them the better." Japan only nodded.

England went to work on the papers that sat on his desk and Japan stood there in silence. He examined the room, eyeing the many expensive decorations. His dark eyes eventually fell on a picture on England's desk. It was a picture of America smiling. He realized that it was also the only picture in England's quarters. Suddenly England coughed. Japan looked up at England who raised a bushy eyebrow at him. "If there was nothing else you may leave now," Japan gave him a small bow and moved to leave the room. "Wait." England called.

"Yes?" Japan turned back to him with a confused look.

England tossed an envelope at him. "Russia is hosting a party. A Masquerade Ball, everyone must attend," Japan caught it and looked it over. "It's in a month. That's your invitation."

Japan nodded. "Yes. I will make sure to prepare for it." Bowing again he left the room.
