The Son

by Elly194

The day after the first world war ended was when Germnay adopted a baby named Israel as his son and came to love him as his own, to his brother's chagrin. The boy grows up as a Jew, but the time of the Holocaust is approching. Can Germnay proetct his son or will he be one of the Six Million? Whose side is Prussia on? And who is Israel's actual father that left him on the doorstep?

40. Punishment

"Germany…?"

Germany didn't even look up at the Italian as the two Axis powers were ushered from their prison cells. Germany didn't fight back but didn't move either and the American soldiers had to pick him up and drag him along, not even bothering to handcuff him at seeing how broken he was.

"Germany... I'm sorry, please talk to me..." begged the Italian tearfully.

Germany didn't answer but kept his head bowed. Italy bit his lip, not knowing what to say or do, knowing there was no possible way he could make Germany feel better in this situation. He had lost his son, his home, his nation, his freedom, his brother, everything.

America, France, England approached the German and Italian.

"Okay you two," sighed England, shooting a sympathetic look to the German, "you're both going to be taken into the court and it's there you'll be punished for your crimes. Italy, you wont have to worry about as much since you already surrendered but Germany..."

Germany finally spoke: "do whatever you want, it doesn't matter anymore."

America nodded but just as the two axis powers were about to be ushered into the courtroom there was a call of, "Kolkolkol! Hey, comrades, look what I've got!"

The nations turned to see Russia holding a country by the collar of his uniform. Before America could even open his mouth Germany let out a cry of fury and lunged at the nation. He slammed Prussia to the ground, grabbing his neck and strangling him, his face contorted in rage.

"Lud...wig..." choked Prussia. Germany snarled and rammed him onto the ground; the Allies were too shocked to do anything.

"YOU SON OF A BITCH! YOU TOOK HIM TO THAT HELLHOLE AND HE'S GONE! HE'S GONE! I TOLD YOU WHAT THEY WOULD DO, I TOLD YOU, YOU BASTARD! YOU TRAITOR!" he screamed, Prussia began to go wake from lack of oxygen but managed to choke out:

"Ger...Germany...please, I didn't think they would do...that... I thought they would just make him work... as much as I hated him I would want him to..."

"I DONT CARE WHETHER YOU INTENDED IT OR NOT, YOU KILLED HIM AND I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!"

"No!" cried America and the Allies ran foreword. It took a good 5 minutes to get the German to release the Prussian and Germany still struggled, desperately trying to get to the Prussian nation to enact his revenge, struggling against his Allies. Russia grabbed the Prussian nation and yanked him back. The Russian looked at America and said, "under the circumstances, comrade, I think you would be unwise to let them move back into the same house but..." he grinned, "if you want, I could watch over him, he could be a member of my Soviet bloc."

America thought for a minute and glancing from Germany to Prussia nodded before glaring at the Prussian nation and declaring, "sounds like a fitting punishment."

Prussia paled at the prospect of having to be put under the infamous Russian's reign but bowed his head and decided that America was right, he did deserve that much. Germany huffed like an angry bull and watched as his brother was dragged away. Recalling the time when they had been the best of friends tears pricked his eyes and he fell to his knees sobbing once more.

"We were brothers...he was his uncle..." he wept, "you should have loved him, Prussia, he loved you as much as I did..."

Italy cried and America yanked the German to his feet and took him into the courtroom for him to be punished, but even he knew that there was no punishment that he could dole out that would be worse then what had already happened to the man.
