California quickly ran out the front door, he had just finished changing and was in a rush to meet the other. He jumped over several bushes and darted to the side of the house. He didn't want to draw attention to himself by being late; someone might get suspicious especially-

"Why hello there Cal." Speak of the devil. Cal looked around but no one was in sight, that is, until New York fell out of a tree.

"Idiot." Cal said under his breath as New York got up. "What do you want?"

"So you got my note?" New York smirked as he brushed himself off.

"It's not polite to answer a question with another question."

"And sense when have you ever cared for manners, if I recall you weren't Mr. Manners when we first met."

"What. Do. You. Want." California growled.

"Really that's no way to talk to someone who has what you want. You should be nicer, like me."

"NICE? How's blackmailing me nice?"

"Blackmail is a harsh word and besides it's the only way I could…talk to you without you being rude. Apparently that's not the case." He said the last part more to himself. "Besides if you want to blame someone blame Florida, it's her fault after all."

"SHUT UP!"

"What'd I do, she's the one who-"

"I SAID SHUT THE HELL UP!" He took a deep breath. "You know, I always knew the second civil war would be west vs. east."

"Are you insisting we go to war over this? What a stupid reason to go to war too." New York chuckled.

"I won't hesitate to push the button that sends nukes your way."

"That's a bit harsh don't you think, but if you want to go at war fine. You choose your army and I'll choose mine. Let the best…person win." California frowned at this statement and immediately swung at New York's head.

"W-whoa, careful, you almost hit my face."

"Sorry, this time I'll aim lower." Cal smirked as the other jumped back at his statement.

"Do that and everyone will know about-"

"Shut up!" California snapped. He took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Look, I'll play nice for a while but expect it to end soon, real soon."

"That's all I ever wanted." New York said innocently. They suddenly the leaves above them began to rustle.

They both looked up and saw Pennsylvania sitting on a branch petting Alfred's cat.

"William?" New York tilted his head to the side while California said nothing. Pennsylvania continued to pet the cat oblivious to the world around him.

"WILLIAM!" New York yelled startling Pennsylvania almost making him fall out of the tree. He looked down at the two and smiled.

"Hi there~ I didn't notice you two down there, have you been there long? Well I guess it doesn't matter sooooooooo…..."

"What are you doing up there?"

"Well you see," he stood up on the branch and held up the cat. "I was headed to the back yard when I heard a cry for help. I looked up and saw this poor defenseless creature stuck in a tree. What kind of hero would I be if I didn't stop to help the poor little fellow? I mean a hero must protect even the smallest of creatures because in truth don't they need us the most."

He struck a pose and americat jumped out of his arms. *crack* the sudden movements made the branch supporting Pennsylvania snap. California and New York just stared as William hit the ground face first. The cat landed on its feet on top of William.

"I'm okay." He said as he sprung up on his feet. "I'm okay."

"You shouldn't stand have stood like that, cherry trees aren't that strong compared to other trees."

"Thank you New York, I know that now."

"Just making sure."

"Yes thank you." Pennsylvania dusted himself off and looked at Cal who was sending death glares his way. "Oh New York, can you do me a favor?"

"What?" William picked up the cat.

"Can you give this to Alfred?"

"Uh, sure." New York took the cat and head to the back yard.

"My enemy's friends make great allies. Remember that." Cal whispered as New York passed. Once New York was out of sight and hearing distance William spoke.

"See you're not the only one in this family who can act. I think my performance was marvelous if you ask me."

"Whatever."

"Don't worry everything's going to be fine just leave it to me." He head towards the backyard but paused once he stood shoulder to shoulder with California. "But mess with New York and deals off, I'll take care of him."
