We Are The Axis Allies! (Hetalia) 3
"And Russia took them all out on his own?" A surprised Italy questioned; he was tightly holding on to his pet cat, Pookie. "That's so scary!"
"It was epic! Like nothing you've ever seen! Glad you're on my side otherwise I'd be toast!" America chortled as he patted Russia on his back.
"Toast?" Russia smiled innocently. "You would not be toast, you would be dead. But I like you, America. And some day, you'll even become one with me."
"As if anyone would want to become one with cold, unforgiving Russia. They'd be better off with me." The three countries turned to face the elder Asian country. "No one wants to be freezing all day, everyday, for their whole life. In China, we have beautiful summers with lots of festivals for both children and adults."
As China spoke, fireworks randomly appeared in the background on a dark, starry night. Russia's smile returned; he even chuckled.
"You, too, will become one with Mother Russia."-Whilst those countries talked amongst themselves about Russia's triumphant victory against those disturbing assassins, the others were having a small meeting. An intense meeting.
"And this was left after Russia defeated those- what did you say they were?" Germany inquired. The blond was inspecting the button that had the image of the Prussian flag.
"Er. That's the thing. We don't know what those things were." England replied sheepishly.
"They obviously were not human. I mean, they unhinged their jaws! They also have never heard of mouth wash." France added in. Now Japan held the button.
"They must have been working for someone else." The Asian stated surely.
"Hm?" The rest of the nations hummed in question.
"Well, if you think about it, if they were the only ones truly after, whatever it was they were after, would they really give up that easily?" It may have been a rhetorical question, it may not, but the nations didn't answer. Japan continued. "They also seemed rather uneducated. All they did was run. No combat skills, no speaking, and no faces."
"Black magic!" England interrupted loudly. His fellow countries looked at him. A blush took over his cheeks.
"Oh don't go on about your little spells again, Britain!" France nagged; England sneered.
"Little spells?! This is years of traditional family black magic! Have some respect!"
"If anything, you probably sent those things after us!" France accused. Germany and Japan looked at England, expecting some sort of reaction.
"Wh-what?! Are you mad you.. frog?! Wh-why would I even bother?!" England protested while shaking his hands rapidly.
"Enough! From both of you!" Germany intercepted; he pinched the inner corners of his eyes. "So, Britain, you think mein Bruder had something to do with this?"
"Well, all the evidence clearly points to his direction." England replied as he crossed his arms. "Austria is missing, whom Prussia has had several 'confrontations' with, Prussia as well is not here, and the button we found."
"If I may interject for a moment." A soft Asian-accented voice spoke up. "Yes, the evidence does point to Mr. Germany's brother Prussia, but is he really this..." Japan trailed off.
"..Smart? Nein." Germany answered and deadpanned.
The Aryan's older brother really wasn't this educated to know how to properly kidnap a person. And to summon such demonic creatures, even less. Their assumptions had giant craters. But could it be another country helping him? Switzerland held this vengeful attitude towards the elegant nation, but he would never harm Austria. On the contrary, he would try to help rescue Austria.
It just didn't make any sense. Why would anyone want to kidnap Austria anyway?

"Big brother?"
"Hm?"
"I was wondering... if we could go to the park today?"
"The park? For what?"
"I wanted to give breadcrumbs to the baby ducks by the pond."
"..."
"Big brother?"
"We'll go for a little while. I have some paperwork I'd like to finish."
"Ah, thank you, big brother!"

"Damn it, Germany! Let me out!" Hungary, who is currently entrapped inside a dark closet, pounded on the door. "If you won't look for Austria, at least let me out so I can do it! Germany!"

Germany sighed and bit his bottom lip. "Alright, let's have a quick meeting. The only way to settle this is if we gather information from everyone."
The others agreed. France went to the other room to retrieve the rest of the nations, but found them conversing with a strange female. The French blond had never seen this woman before, but she didn't seem at all threatening. He called to his fellow nations.
"There is a woman talking to the others. She looks worried." Two sentences out and France was gone. Miss the opportunity to meet a female? Not France.
"An unknown woman?" Japan questioned; he turned to Germany.
"I have a bad feeling about this." Was the German's only reply before they walked out of the room to the giant lobby.
When the last of the countries arrived, they found the girl to be somewhat homely. It wasn't that she was hideous, but it seemed as though she didn't bother to fix herself up. She was thin, tall, and had dull, gray-blonde hair. However, when the nations entered the room, a sense of relief entered their bodies. The strange woman spoke.
"Now that you are all here, I have a favor to ask of you." She stated quickly.
"Hold on just a minute. Who are you to ask us for a favor? We don't even know you." Germany spat out incredulously.
"There really is not much time for introductions, but you are correct." The woman spoke politely. "My name is Syrceri, and I am currently deceased." A blanket of disturbed expressions covered the countries' faces. "And to put this simple enough, my brother is one of the most powerful practitioners of dark magic and he wants to take over the world."
...
"HA!" England exclaimed proudly in France's face
