AN: I decided to post the beginning because I lost my flash drive with the rest on it and I wanted to post something. Enjoy and Review!

Disclaimer: I don't own Hetalia. Just my OC's.

"It's 8:30 and we are still missing people" Rhode island said looking through the cluster of states. "I don't even see Delaware here, why'd he tell use to come out here if he wasn't even going to show up." He turned to the half dead Massachusetts and continued to rant. Not too far from them a cluster of states consisting of New Mexico, Utah, Wyoming and Nevada all discussing the long trip.

"It could have gone smoother that's all I'm saying." Utah said defending himself.

"Well you can't really blame them." Wyoming said.

"I'm not blaming them I just think next time we should consider renting one to our self for a more enjoyable trip." He turned to Nevada and New Mexico. "Why don't you guys join us I'm sure with all of us combined we'll have enough money."

"I'm broke." Colorado said joining the group. "But Wyoming will pay for me" he put one arm around Wyoming "Why is he paying for me?" Wyoming rolled his eyes.

"You're not broke and I'm not paying for you. We were talking about the trip back home."

"Oh…I don't need a ride home."

"Did you already make arrangements?"

"Nope I'm going to stay here with Alfred."

"Are you sure Alfred wants you staying around"

"If he doesn't then he can pay for my trip back."

Not far from them many eastern states were talking and somehow got on the topic of Canada.

"I just want to know if we make Canada a state are we going to just make the whole country a state or annex the providences as states." Vermont asked.

"I think if anything we would have the providences join as states if not we would have one state bigger than all fifty of us combined." Connecticut replied.

"To be honest I think we should get rid of some states not add new ones" New York cut in on their conversation. Pennsylvania emerged from the side of the house and joined the western states.

"Hey Colorado come here for a minute." He whispered and spoke to the younger state in private. Colorado smiled and began to scream nonsense.

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HELP I FORGOT WHAT I WAS GOING TO SCREAM ABOUT! INVADE CANADA AND MEXICO! DOWN WITH THE EMPIOR. I SEE DEAD PEOPLE! YOU'RE NOT REAL! " This began to get on everyone's nerves immediately until finally no one could take it anymore.

"AND YOU'RE ADOPTED!" Massachusetts snapped. Colorado's eyes grew wide.

"…what?..."

"Yeah haven't you ever noticed how different you look from the rest of us in the east?" She said with a smirk. Colorado began to freak out. Rhode Island pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.

"What have you done?"

"I'm sorry, I'm tired and he pissed me off." She yawned. "I guess I went too far…but it's best he finds out know." Just then Alfred walked out of the back door quickly all eyes turned to him as he was tackled by Colorado.

"Alfred why didn't you tell me I was adopted?" Alfred looked at him confused. "You're all adopted; I never thought it had to be said. I thought it was obvious, I have adoption papers for all of you that I had to sign that made me your legal guardian."

"Do you still have them?"

"Legally speaking…yes…and I know where they are."

"Not legally speaking?"

"There…somewhere…In the house…maybe….probably."

"That's reassuring."

"I see everyone is here wonderful" Delaware smiled setting down a large box.

"And where were you?" Rhode Island said frowning.

"I just wanted to make sure everyone got down here. I realized I never said what time zone we are in-"

"WE ARE IN THE EAST SO IT'S GIVEN WE USE EASTERN TIME." Rhode Island shouted.

"Yes I'm sure everyone knows that now but-"

"Let's just start shall we…what's in the box?" Virginia said with false enthusiasm obviously wanting to get things back on track.

"I'm glad you asked." Delaware smiled, opened the box and pulled out a megaphone.

"Everyone line up." His voice echoed through the device. He pulled out a bucket filled with paper. "Now draw a paper from the bucket they're numbered one through twenty-five and find the person with the same number." One by one the states pulled a number and searched for there partner.

"Twelve" North Dakota read he turned to his brother. "What's yours?"

"Five"

"Then who has twelve?"

A blonde girl stood in front of him her eyes were blue, her hair medium length, and straight, tied in a pony tail. She was dressed in a red shirt with a white stripe down the side and matching shorts.

"You're number twelve?" South Carolina asked.

"Oh not you? Can I trade with someone or better yet why don't you trade with South Dakota."

"NO TRADEING!" Delaware's voice boomed through the megaphone.

"But-" Delaware held up the megaphone as he passed them

"No exceptions unless you and your partner might kill each other…" he switched off the megaphone. "…and that's mainly for New York." He finished and walked away.

"I want to be with my brother, it's not fair…you're not even the good one…"

"Excuse me, you aren't a prize yourself. I mean isn't your brother the one with Mt Rushmore and what do you have, that's right, nothing. I on the other hand helped a defended us from English attack and was a vital part to the revolution that established our country."

"A tree stopped the British attack."

The two began to argue as the rest of the family continued to look for their partner. California was paired with Colorado, Texas with Alaska, and West Virginia with Pennsylvania. One by one they lined up with their partner at their side, all facing a large forest. New York was the last to find his partner, Alfred, the two stood next to Cal and Colorado in the middle of the line.

"Alright everyone stand next to your partner I'm going to come around and tie one of your legs together. Today's event is a three legged race. You must work as a team to navigate your way through that." He pointed to the wooded area in front of them. "I will be waiting in a spot towards the middle with a prize for the first team to make it there."

"What's the prize?"

"Win and you'll find out." Delaware started at the end of the line and began tying the partner's legs together.

"Hey Delaware I have a question, how are you going to manage to get up there before us?" Montana asked as Delaware tied one of his legs to North Carolina. James smiled.

"I know what you're thinking but tony is giving me a lift so there is no short cut you can follow." He finished tying the two together and moved to the next pair, New Mexico and Kentucky.

"We can always follow Tony's ship." New Mexico said in a quiet voice.

"Yeah for the two seconds you see it, I'm sure that will get you far." He moved on to South Carolina and North Dakota. South Carolina watched as he tied a complicated knot around their legs.

"Is this a boy scout knot?" She kicked her leg in front of her to examine the knot knocking North Dakota on his back.

"Ow" South Carolina smiled.

"Oh I'm sorry." North Dakota got to his feet only for her to do the exact same thing sending him on his back.

"Stop that!"

"Sure thing."

"Thank yo-" She flung her leg backwards this time he fell flat on his face.

"Ok know I'm done." Out of the corner of his eyes North Dakota noticed the pair next to them as Delaware tied their legs together.

"Hey how come Washington and Oregon get to be together?"

"Cause we drew the same number." Both grinned.

"Funny how that happened."

"Are you implying something?"

"I think I am." The three boys began to argue.

Delaware was a few states away from the middle Alfred seeing so of the states already start to go at it sighed.

"I wonder if your uncle has this problem with your cousins…maybe we should have had a large family reunion with them." Alfred's statement seemed to catch everyone's attention.

"NO NO NO NO NOOOOOO! WE ARE NEVER DOING THAT…NEVER THEY ARE SOOO ANNOYING AND WEIRD and quite frankly I just don't like them."

"NO ONE LIKES THEM…"

"They're not that bad…"

"YES THEY ARE!"

"Wait we have an uncle?" Texas asked.

"Do you mean uncle Sam? You know for an uncle he's not very good he's never once gotten me a present or come to any of my birthdays." Colorado said. Alfred turned to them.

"I'm talking about Mattie."

"Who?" Most of the southern states asked in unison.

"Canada. He comes every year for thanks giving with his kids. Texas don't you remember I told you hang out with Alberta last thanks giving Mattie said you guys had a lot in common. "

"Alfred the only thing I remember about thanks giving is the cowboy's game after that everything is blurry. I never met anybody named Alberta." Texas scratched her head.

"I don't like them last time we went over there one of them called me a hoser. I don't weather that was a compliment or insult." Utah frowned at the memory.

"Well what did you do before he called you that?" Rhode Island asked.

"Uh…"

"By the sound of that pause I'm going to guess it was an insult."

"So I broke his play station 2 I thought it was a sniper with that red light, I think he should have thanked me that I was willing to risk my life and punch a sniper for him. I could have died."

"You punched his play station?"

"I meant to save his life."

"Well it doesn't matter what you were doing that's the past and we aren't having a family reunion with the Canadians so stay still so I can tie you guys up." Delaware finished the pair he was on and moved on to California and Colorado.

"You might as well give us the prize now no way anyone is going to beat us. I'm awesome and I have an awesome partner." He put his arm around Cal. "Right?"

"Yeah…"

"You know we should come up with a team name…how about…Gold…or something to do with it since we both had miners."

"How about team gold rush."

"That's great!" New York watched the two. It was obvious Cal wasn't too thrilled about his current situation. He turned to Alfred.

"We'll be the Yankees." Cal frowned as New York chuckled. "You guys might as well give up, Me and Alfred are going to win this right?"

"HAHAHA RIGHT!"

Tony approached the group drinking from a juice box as if this was an everyday occurrence. His ship laid by the pool behind them. He was suppose to give Delaware a lift to a spot in the forest, this week Alfred had said the states were coming to spend time with him. He himself had mix feelings about the idea and the states themselves. He stood next to Delaware as he finished tying the last pair.

"Hey Tony you about ready?"

"…"

"Great!" He rummaged through the box and pulled out a gun that would be used for track or cross country and handed it to tony. He grabbed the megaphone again.

"Ok when you here the gun fire go-"

*BANG*

The gun fired and in less than two seconds both Cal and New York took off at full speed dragging their partner with them. The others were about to join them when Delaware stopped them.

"Wait I forgot to give you guys your map."

"Yeah a map would be helpful." Rhode Island said pulling his leg that was tied to a non cooperative Arizona.

"What about Alfred and-" West Virginia asked conserved.

"Doesn't matter they'll find their way eventually." Massachusetts said waving them off. Delaware quickly gave them the maps and the each took off. Half of the pairs ended up tripping before even making it to the forest. All took off except for Texas and Alaska who still stood at the starting line. Texas turned to Alaska.

"Do you want to win this?"

"It doesn't matter to me."

"Great then we'll walk." She turned to Delaware. "You gonna go?"

"Of course." He chuckled.

He and Tony took off in the sky as Alaska and Texas watched as they disappeared in the sky before they themselves took off into the forest.

AN: So about this…first I want to say North and South Dakota are identical twins since they both became a state the same day while the Carolinas are fraternal because they entered at different times. Tony is going to make more appearances in the story along with other special guest ;)
