The commotion was instantaneous. A quiet Asian man in a smart suit cleared his throat. "Miss Dixie, what proof do you have?"
She laughed rather harshly, but stopped, fearing she had made him feel bad. "Hm… Well, I have the most solid evidence I could possibly come up with. America?"
America jolted as if something had pulled him into this world. "You're human. I mean…. You're a normal human. I could feel it the moment I saw you. You're not… connected to me anymore."
"This is no big deal. Whoever wants to can go and be a human," said a giant of a man, with light hair and a scarf. "Tell me, are there the side effects?"
"None, really," she said, "but there is one major issue with this. It didn't work this way for me because I was not an active nation when I took it. But if someone- anyone- who is a nation, which pretty much includes everyone in this room if I'm not mistaken, takes this and becomes human… All of you do. And there's a damn good chance you won't remember anything from your past."
There was a collective gasp. Nations sitting near each other consulted with wide eyes and disbelieving faces. I looked at Germany to quiet them, but he was just as out of it as America. I hit the podium with my hand and a sudden hush blanketed the room.
"So I guess it is my responsibility to fix all this chaos that I brought in. Don't bother looking for my supply, you'll never find it. But I encourage you to go home. Think about this. Talk to your loved ones. And come back here in three months and we will take a vote." With that I put the bottle back in my satchel and left.
*cue dramatic music* Thanks for reading! Please review! And if you want, include how you think a certain nation will react. I kinda have it in my head already, but it would be cool to hear some thoughts from others. Next chapter is the beginning of a long journey for our friends Germany, Prussia, and N. Italy...!
