Alright! We can finally keep moving on this! This chappie was a TON of fun to write!

Quick recap: On the way home from school, Astrid, Artemis and Takonna were kidnapped by 4Kids and questioned about the Hetalia cast's whereabouts. The siblings refused to answer resulting in threats at gunpoint. But, to their shock, the Hetalia cast all came to the hideout and gave themselves up as long as 4Kids promised to never harm the siblings ever again. Now, using America's plane, the siblings are on their way to 4Kids studios to rescue their friends! Enjoy!

Chapter 7

"HOW THE HOLY HELL DO YOU LAND THIS THING?" Astrid screamed as they flew closer to the studio.

Takonna ran into the cockpit to help look as they flew over the studio, when a boom was heard. Artemis looked out the window as a large ball of fire whizzed past barely missing the plane. Artemis looked down to see large military guns pointed up at them.

"They have MISSILES? ARE YOU EFFING KIDDING ME?!" she yelled.

"Wait, WHAT?!" Takonna looked out the window just in time to see the 4Kids men fire again.

Both of them ran back into the cockpit. "Sis, next time you decide to steal America's plane, know how to land it at least. At this rate, we'll be shot down!" Takonna yelled, as he started pacing around nervously.

Artemis was looking at the control panel. "I watched America do this once, I think you press this button, but then 4Kids started shooting at us, so I didn't get to see what he did next. Remember? That's when he got shot in the arm."

"Right, it shouldn't be that hard for someone like America to figure out; I mean, no offense, but they guy is only eighteen in human years and can talk to aliens and whales!" Astrid said as she frantically scanned the controls after pushing the button. To their luck, a small shaft opened up revealing what looked like a game controller.

Astrid slapped her forehead, "Only America would program his plane to work like a videogame," she said as she grabbed it and switched it on. Not only was it ten times easier to fly, but they managed to figure out how to open the landing gear and land safely a few miles away from the studio. The siblings peeked out of the window and stayed put for a while to make sure they weren't sending men after them.

"Any idea how to get in, without being spotted would be preferable, as I highly believe that these assholes plan to shoot us." Artemis said, looking pointedly at Takonna. "Well Mr. Smarty-iPhone-carrying-genius-that-can-pull-random -useful-objects-out-of-thin-air, think of anything?"

Takonna just glared at his little sister, and pulled out his iPhone. "Well, since you asked so nicely, no I don't have any ideas, but I can come up with some within a minute or so."

"Oh yeah, cause we have all the time in the world to think of a plan," Astrid said sarcastically.

"Good point. So you got any ideas?"

"Nope."

"We're so screwed."

"Yep."

Finally giving up, the siblings just ultimately decided to wing it and began getting their anime weapons ready.

"You know, it's kinda weird how these things only work on people who can see the characters," Astrid pointed out as she loaded America's pistol.

"Scary too, if we get shot by that thing nobody'll be able to take out the bullet and whatnot, I mean, we could do it for each other, and that's about it." Artemis said, nodding as she looked for something she could use.

Astrid tossed her Hungary's frying pan. "Knock yourself out kiddo." she said, Artemis smiled widely.

"Sweet," Takonna said as he got Britain's old pirate sword,

"Please don't decapitate anyone with that," Astrid said.

"Why not? That would be awesome!" Artemis said.

"In anime, yes; in real life, no."

"Ooooh, riiight. I get it now." Artemis said, "but still, the sword is pretty cool!"

They waited for a bit, until it seemed like the guards were changing shifts, leaving the door exposed. "Let's go!" Astrid said, and they rushed inside.

The first thing that they heard was a scream of pain, followed by one of rage. Artemis knew who the screams belonged to at once, especially the first one. How could she forget? It was the first thing they heard the morning they'd met the cast of Hetalia in their kitchen. Astrid clapped her hand over her sister's' mouth to keep her from screaming as she and Takonna fought to keep from screaming as well.

Artemis threw Astrid off of her, and raced down the hallway, practically crushing the skulls of the 4Kids workers that got in her way using Hungary's frying pan. Her two older siblings raced after her killing anyone she may have missed while giving into their anger as well. "STAY OUTTA OUR WAY YOU SONS OF-"

"Stop in the name of the heart of the cards!" a voice yelled.

The siblings skidded to a halt to see a familiar anime character with spiky hair and a duel disk in front of them.

"Awww great! Now we have to listen to Yugi's 'heart of the cards' bullshit!" Takonna yelled while rolling his eyes.

"And apparently friendship horse-shit too!" Artemis said pointing as Téa joined him,

"Ooooh no! Not that smiley-face-of-friendship bitch!" Astrid yelled loading her pistol.

"I can't believe it! Yu-Gi-Oh had so much potential and 4Kids had to come and ruin it!" Artemis said angrily. "That aside, HYAA!" she said, sweeping through the two of them with the frying pan before taking off again. They didn't kill them, because Yugioh wasn't a god-awful show; if anything it was pretty entertaining, but that's beside the point.

They ran until more anime characters appeared in front of them whose voice acting was so bad it made Astrid cringe. It was Luffy and Sanji; the 4Kids versions. According to Germany the original cast of One Piece had been rescued a while ago and safely transported to Funimation. But 4Kids had made so many episodes that they left behind clones of themselves with the 4Kids edits.

"Oh hell no! I was hoping I wouldn't run into you abominations!" Astrid cocked her pistol, "But I guess now I can rid the world of you anime disgraces!"

"I'd like to see you try, you chicken!" 4Kids Luffy yelled with his wooden voice.

"I guess I'll have to serve the main course early," 4Kids Sanji said in his horribly nasally voice.

"You may want to stop talking, 'cause if you don't..." Takonna began as Artemis looked nervously at her sister's shaking form. The only things that drove Astrid over the edge was bad voice acting, her siblings being attacked, and the 4Kids version of One Piece; now Mt. Astrid was close to eruption and it wasn't going to be pretty.

4Kids Sanji twirled his lollipop (causing Astrid's eyes to twitch and narrow dangerously), "You'll what? You'll-"

"GRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH! SHUT UP! I CAN'T TAKE IT! JUST DO THE WORLD A FAVOR AND DIE!" Astrid screeched and pulled the trigger putting a bullet in both of the clones' heads. Both clones fell down dead and Artemis and Takonna quickly tried to calm their sister. But it was all for naught because the rest of the 4Kids One Piece clones had appeared as well. Astrid's eyes grew wide with absolute rage and adjusted the pistol so it became a machine gun (it happens),

"DIE YOU CENSORED BASTARDS!" she screamed. She pulled the trigger and showered the One Piece clones with bullets killing them all. Astrid panted hard and Artemis placed her hands on her shoulders (or tried to anyway).

"Calm down sis; you got 'em, I swear! They're dead, as in not moving, as in having ceased to be!" she said cautiously. The only other time she and Takonna had see Astrid explode like this was when a bully at school decided to pick on the two of them... they hadn't been bothered since. Astrid took some deep breaths and folded the machine gun back into a pistol.

"That felt good," she said and the three continued on their way until a certain theme entered their ears that made Takonna freeze in his tracks.

"Movin' at the speed of sound! The quickest hedgehog around!...Gotta go fast! Gotta go fast!"

Takonna gripped his sword as the 4Kids versions of Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles appeared in front of them. Astrid and Artemis' eyes widened in terror as the only thing in the world that made Takonna angry stood in front of them. Faster than you could say 'Chaos Emeralds' Takonna zoomed forwards and sliced across the characters necks like a ninja. A second later, their heads slid to the ground with blood spurting from their bodies as they fell to the ground dead.

"Takonna! I thought I told you NOT to decapitate anyone!" Astrid yelled with wide eyes as the blood pooled around the dead bodies.

Takonna stood up straight and flicked leftover blood off the sword, "You didn't have a problem shooting the One Piece cast," he said calmly, completely shutting his sister up. Artemis snapped her siblings out of their killer trances and they continued to sprint down the hallway.

The siblings stopped cold when they heard another scream. "ITALY! Artemis yelled, running faster than ever. "HANG ON!" Takonna yelled. "WE'RE COMING!" Astrid yelled while shooting a 4Kids guard.

Inside a large and heavily guarded room the entire Hetalia cast sat against the wall surrounded by their tormentors who held whips, spiked clubs, and small pistols that were splattered with fresh blood. Italy had just been shot in the leg much to Germany and Romano's horror which explained the scream.

The already injured nations, like Prussia, Switzerland and most of the Nordics, were in more pain than ever and the healthy nations weren't much better. They reminded themselves that this was all to keep the siblings safe and were prepared to take anything they threw at them, even if it meant being censored into a kids' show.

The nation's clung to each other and closed their eyes as the tormentors raised their weapons again when a commotion was heard outside.

The nations' heads popped up at the sound of the sound of the siblings' cries. Italy and some of the other younger characters started crying a mixture of joy, fear, and anger. They were bloodied and bruised from 4Kids' torture, but the fact that the siblings had returned to save them gave them a little hope. "You idiots..." Germany said, smiling slightly, as a three figures wielding a familiar frying pan, a sword and a pistol burst into the room.

"Now, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way. Your choice." Astrid said, winking at the nations before turning her attention back onto the 4Kids guards.

"How the hell did you kids get back in here?!" One of them said, staring at the three of them in disbelief.

"Oh, you know, we just flew a certain someone's plane, no biggie." Artemis said, resulting in several stares at a certain American nation.

"Astrid take the ones on the left, Arty, the right, I'll take the ones in the middle." Takonna said, grinning.

"This should be fun." Astrid said, pointing the pistol at one of the 4Kids guys.

"It would be, if you had more back-up than just the three of you." Said a scarily familiar voice. The three of them gave a start as they watched Mel walk into the room, smirking at the three of them.

"Mel? But you flew away! What the hell are you doing here again?!" Takonna yelled, resulting in a cold laugh from their former ally.

"You're a smart kid right? Surely you figured that out by now."

"Oh shit...you're their leader?! But...but you helped us save the Nordics! What the hell?!"

Mel smiled evilly, "It was all according to plan; I had heard that someone was keeping the Hetalia cast somewhere and I had to find out who. I captured the Nordics just so I could find out who you were and gain your trust," he explained before frowning, "But you three have been more trouble than I thought."

"That doesn't really explain how you flew away..." Takonna said frowning. At that moment an idea came to Artemis, "Unless..." she trailed off. The girl ran towards him and slammed the frying pan dangerously close to Mel's face. An anger mark appeared on his head as he frowned causing his pupils to disappear, kind of like what the nations look like when they get mad.

"Don't attack like that without warning!" Mel yelled when he and the others realized the truth.

"HOLY SHIT HE'S AN ANIME CHARACTER!" Everyone yelled at the same time.

"Then why would you censor other shows? I mean look at you! You almost let your men shoot children!" Britain said angrily, reaching out to take his sword from Takonna.

Mel smiled evilly, "Oh but you see? Censoring is the worst form of anime violence out there. Eventually a show becomes so censored that they don't even know who or what they are anymore. Only very few shows have been fully censored and we would have censored more if that damned Funimation hadn't decided to interfere! But once we censor Hetalia we will move on to even more shows and soon every anime in existence will be the mindless censored slaves of 4Kids!"

Britain was about to take his sword but Takonna gently pushed him down, "You need to rest; we'll handle this," he said.

Astrid folded America's pistol into a machine gun again and cocked it and Artemis wielded her frying pan with fire in her eyes,

"I'd say it's about time these money-grabbing whores went out of business, what do you think?" Astrid asked calmly.

"Let's do this," Artemis said. Mel nodded to his henchmen and one of them pushed a button on the wall. A thick glass wall surrounded the Hetalia cast, trapping them.

"If I'm to be the giver of your demise I don't want your friends to miss a minute of it," Mel said coldly. The nations (who could move) all pounded soundlessly on the glass as their muffled protests were barely heard through the glass. America hit the glass harder, causing a few of the 4Kids guards to jump when a crack appeared.

"I'll give you one last chance." Mel growled at the siblings. "Leave now, and none of you get hurt."

The three glanced at each other and shrugged. "So what? We put our friends before ourselves, especially these guys." Astrid said, firing the machine gun around.

Mel watched the three as they fought, looking for patterns in their styles. Artemis switched between using two hands and one every few hits. Takonna repeated a series of swings of the sword. Astrid...didn't really have much of a pattern, but she had to stop firing every now and then. He pretty much knew how to deal with them now, all that was left was to do it.

The siblings grinned; in no time these 4Kids bastards would be history and it would be smooth sailing to Funimation studios from here! But that one hope was put to rest as Mel suddenly produced a pistol and dashed towards them. Without batting an eye, he fired three bullets faster than the speed of light at the children and red blossomed on certain parts of them.

Artemis cried out, dropped the frying pan and clutched her forearm. Takonna fell to the ground holding his right leg, gritting his teeth in pain. Astrid fell to her knees as she held her shoulder. The nations all cried out in horror and America pounded even harder on the partially cracked glass prison. As the sibling held their bleeding wounds trying not to cry, Mel held up his gun once again; but a loud crash was heard as America shattered the glass surrounding the nations.

Takonna took this opportunity to take out his iPhone. He pressed a button, and in the blink of an eye, the siblings and the entire Hetalia cast was gone. Mel yelled in rage; they had teleported! Everyone suddenly reappeared in the plane outside the studio and everyone looked at Takonna,

"Okay, how the hell did you do that?!" Artemis asked.

"Teleportation app," Takonna answered simply with a smug grin.

"They have those?" Astrid asked skeptically.

"There's an app for everything nowadays," Takonna said before his leg throbbed in pain causing him to grimace. The siblings put their weapons down and allowed the nations to crowd around them. Some scolded them for being so reckless but many simply hugged and thanked them, happy that they were alright. Once everything calmed down China and Germany easily patched up their wounds. Since they were anime bullets and they didn't hit anything vital, they didn't do much damage. The siblings returned the gesture by patching up the badly injured nations.

Astrid then went into the cockpit and tossed one of the game controllers to America, "Let's get the hell out of here!" she said.

You have no idea how fun it was to write the 4Kids One Piece scene! No joke, it is the one 4Kids anime I cannot stand! I would've done exactly what Astrid did if I could because the 4Kids One Piece is an absolute DISGRACE AND SHOULD DIE IN A FIRE!

Jbaron really DOES hate the 4Kids version of Sonic X since he's a big Sonic fan. He was ESPECIALLY pissed at the end of the series when Tails had to destroy Cosmo. In the original version, Tails and Cosmo actually confess their love! But in the dubbed version, they don't EVEN THOUGH IT'S SO FREAKIN OBVIOUS THAT THEY'RE IN LOVE! WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST LOVE 4KIDS!? Look on youtube for jbaron's comparison of those two scenes, you will be shocked!

Oh yeah, and Mel finally comes back so yeah, he's an anime character which would explain the super strength and flying during the Nordic chapter...DON'T JUDGE US! This way we could have a villain of our own since I think we bashed 4Kids enough. Teleportation app! There totally SHOULD be an app for that!

Review plz!
