Ch21
Austria followed the sobbing girl to her room. He knocked on the door to hear yelling in Italian and a pillow so soft hitting the door. "H-Hoffnungen? I really am sorry... I didn't mean to ruin everything..."
Hoffnungen pulled the door open for a brief second, then closed and locked it again. "Leave me alone you asshole!"
Austria knocked on the door again. "Hoffnungen... Please forgive me!"
Hoffnungen opened the door widely, but her appearance changed quite a bit, But her voice had stuck the same, which made her sound younger than she looked. "Go ruin some other persons shit, ass-hat!" Austria stared at the little girl, who has seemed to have grown up in the five seconds that the door was closed. "What?"
Austria's jaw dropped. How did this happen? Even when this happened ti Italy, it probably took a couple of hours for him to grow up. Why was she so quick in growing up? And why hasn't her voice changed yet? "Y-You... Grew up?"
Hoffnungen looked down at her state. "What the bloody fucking hell happened to me! Aren't I supposed to grow up slowly?!" Hoffnungen locked the door and ran to her mirror. "I look so mature!" But then her eyes reached her chest. "Why are these damned things so small?" She sat down on her bed and looked at herself through the mirror across from from her. "Besides my chest, I look good!" Finally her voice had changed from a deep and scratch, muscular voice changed more feminine in a matter of seconds. It was still deep. Deeper in fact, but it flowed more like most women. Her voice was still scratchy and scary like a Germans voice usually is, but a lot less than before.
Hoffnungen was so surprised when she heard her new voice. "This must be a dream... I don't sound like myself!" She put her fingers to her lips, and closed her eyes. "I don't sound as scary anymore... I might get use to this..."
She laid back on her bed. "But this still doesn't fix the sculpt I made for Hungary..." Hoffnungen lays there for a couple of minutes before she decides to stand up. She grabs the bag that her sisters belongings came in and packs up everything. She packs her things, her books, hair and tooth brush, paints and brushes and some of her art, then she grabs another bag and puts her the rest of her paintings inside, along with numerous other things. She left her things in her room to talk to Austria and Hungary.
"Hungary... She grew up! Her island is growing and her people are developing. She needs to make her own history..." Hoffnungen stood in the doorway of the kitchen. Shocked. She didn't know what to say as Austria and Hungary stared at her. They didn't know she listened in on the conversation.
"Y-Yeah... I'm leaving..." She said calmly, before dashing back to the empty room and grabbing her things. She didn't even look back at the two standing at the as she ran for the airport. She got on the first airplane to her island and sat quietly on the plane. She sat and thought and thought about what had happened. She just figured it would be alright. But after a couple of hours, She realized that for a nation to grow up, there country must have gotten a government. What kind of government did her people receive? Hopefully not a dictatorship... And the thought of a Monarchy and kings and queens and princes and princesses scared her. What if it WAS a Monarchy? She would have to work along side with them and be scared that one day they'll order her head off. And since nations don't die, she didn't know if her head would grow back or just be detached.
Finally the airplane landed and she looked around the streets. They weren't very different, and everyone seemed happy. Perhaps she was overreacting. She started walking around until she saw a poster on a light post. Vote for me! Was read with an unknown name written afterwards. "Presidents? So I'm a democracy?"
Hoffnungen smiled at the thought, when a familiar voice rung through the air. "Hoffnungen! Dude! Is that you? I can hardly recognize you!"
Hoffnungen turned around to see America standing there. "America? What a surprise!"
America ran up to the nation. She was really tall. She seemed o be as tall as Russia, maybe taller. "Wow! You are SO tall, Dude!"
"Y-Yeah... I'm surprised aboot this as much as you... I only grew up like this a few hours ago..."
America paused. "You mean... You grew up instantly? So far, the only known nations to have done that was me and Italy..."
Hoffnungen put her hand to her forehead "Yeah... I kinda guessed that..."
America smiled brightly. He held out his hand and grabbed Hoffnungen's. "So what brings you here?"
Hoffnungen smiled too, but hers was faked and sad like. "I'm moving here... Austria wanted me gone... And I didn't want to see his face after what he did to my present for Hungary..."
America pat her back, still stretching a smile across his face. "Well, if you need a place to stay, I'll be glad to let you stay with me until I leave."
Hoffnungen was about to speak when another voice is heard from the street behind her. "H-Hoffnungen? Y-You're okay!" Hoffnungen looked in the direction of the voice to see Kappa. What was she doing here?
"K-Kappa? Why the hell are you here?"
America backed away a bit and his bright smile disappeared. "W-Whats going on?"
"Hoffnungen... I truly am sorry for how I acted years ago... I was just so heart broken by your news..."
America put his hand on Hoffnungen's shoulder. "What is she talking about Dude?"
"How much have I told you aboot my sister?"
"You had a sister?"
"Leanne was your sister?"
Hoffnungen shrugged. "Y-Yeah... We formed an alliance and became sisters..."
America jumps up and down. "Another nation! Wow! I can't wait to meet her! Kappa and Hoffnungen look down at the ground, pain in their eyes and aches in their hearts. "Whats wrong?"
Hoffnungen grabs Americas hand and starts walking away from Kappa, leaving her behind. "I've decided that I'll accept your offer..."
America finally sensing the mood of the situation, tried to lighten things up. "Th-Thats great! Canada is going to be so glad to see you!"
Hoffnungen giggles quietly to herself. "And I'm going to be glad to see him."
