Chapter 44 An Attempt to Say the Truth
"Um, Alfred, excuse me…" Timmy said "Why are you…"
"You could join the dance class later." America said. "For now, Arthur wants to talk to you."
Meanwhile…
"Let's see…" Sealand is seen thinking about something on the corner on the hallway "…if I were to have a dance with her… I KNOW! I'll act like a gentleman! Every girl wants a gentleman right? Besides, if this is the only way on how I would get recognized, then I must take this opportunity!"
"Wow, you seem to be motivated…" a voice said.
"AH! WHO ARE YOU!"
"It's me. Matthew Williams, aka Canada." The voice whispered. Sealand gave out a large sigh.
"I thought it's the enemy."
"Good thing you are not a country and you are not yet recognized. I'm already a country and still not recognized." Canada said. Just then, Sealand saw the three with America and Sealand immediately knelt before Trixie. He said "I do appreciate this, your lady, but would please me my partner for the dance?"
"Wait, who exactly are you?" Timmy asks while being flustered at that scene.
"Wow, Timmy's being jealous at him. Anyways, he's no match to a country like him…" Cosmo said while appearing together with Wanda and Poof. Sealand heard it and sparkles came to him. He held Cosmo at his hands and Sealand yelp "Really? You recognized me?"
"Well, kinda…" Cosmo said. Sealand twirled him around and around out of happiness.
"Now as an act of my recognition, you, my lady, would be my partner on the…"
"Sorry but my heart belongs to someone else…" Trixie calmly said. This immediately shatters Sealand's atmosphere happiness.
"What took you so long?" Britain said while looking at them. He noticed that Sealand is in a frozen solid state.
"Anyways, meet me at the guidance councilor's office. I have to tell you something really important…"
All of them followed Britain, all except Sealand who was still frozen solid. Canada looked back at him and is a little bit worried.
"Simple…" Britain said to himself "I just have to say it to them the truth about the Blue Moon. Perhaps it won't have a profound effect right?"
Attempt 1
"Now, I have a question…" Britain said.
"Wait, where's the…"
"Practicing the dance…" Britain answered Tootie back, knowing that she will ask about the guidance counselor. "Alright, this is extremely important on how crucial this…" Britain noticed that the three are talking towards each other.
"WOULD YOU PLEASE LISTEN!" Britain yelled.
"I feel pity for that country back there…" Tootie said "Trixie, you should take him as a…"
"Well, with you having to solo Timmy? Not a chance…" Trixe replied. At that moment, the two begins to have an exchange in arguments with Timmy shrinking away.
"STOP THE BLOODY LOVE QUARRELLING!" Britain had enough and slams the table so hard that a crack formed on it.
"Wow, I never realize I was that strong…" Britain said. America came in bringing his famous burgers and said "So Brit…" America placed his arm at the table and the table was cut in half.
"Oh great…" Britain said.
"Well, looks like someone had to owe me a loan again…" America commented.
Attempt 2
The table was easily fixed with Britain's magic. Now America went out of the scene, trying to convince that Britain has an economic trick up his sleeve.
"Now, perhaps you three needs to know…" Now, this time, the three kids are now holding an oil lamp with something labeled Made in China.
"ARE YOU LISTENING! AND WHERE THE BLOODY HECK DID YOU GET THAT LAMP!"
"Uncle Yao gave it to me as a gift." Trixie said.
"So, you tried to send a teleportation device to prank China?" Egypt said while talking to Turkey in Cairo, Egypt.
"Yes. Nothing but a nice day to target China as he rubs that antique lamp. You know very well that, how should I put this, I'm the caretaker of genies, so what a genie could do, I could, except changing history of course." Turkey replied.
"Thought you could fool me Turkey…" China said to himself "… if I were to use that lamp, that would mean that it will be made in a metal-plated plastic."
"Made in China?" Britain rubs the lamp to clarify the name and out comes Turkey sending in a rain of papers and debts.
"China, I'm your Feng Shui…'
"First of all, I'm a Westerner…" Britain said "Second… WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!"
"My bad…" Turkey went inside the lamp and all the papers disappeared.

Attempt 3
"Now, you listen…"
"Alright…" Timmy said.
"…this stage you are in enables you to unleash the wand's powers to its full potential. All it needs now is to start the catalyst which may break or make you."
"Yeah, how about that?" Tootie asks.
"I do appreciate on how you seem to be close to each other…" Britain said "…however, being close as in a, how should I say, couple thing is not the goal."
"What do you mean by that?" Tootie said. "I mean, I never became this close to Timmy…"
"And I would not have, well…"
"Trixie, I was well aware that you like Timmy all because of your actions…" Britain said. "However, the goal I want to talk to you is this: could you just reserve that romantic feelings you have for some later time?"
"What do you mean by that?" Tootie asks him."I mean, my whole life is…'
"I do understand you, but…" At that moment, the door was slammed opened and Sealand rushes in, protesting "Trixie! I'm going to admit it…"
"WHAT IN THE-YOU LIMEY SEALAND, GET THE HECK OUT OF…"
"… I won't leave until either of you recognized me as a country." Sealand said "… anyways…"
"Alright, let me handle this…" Trixie said. "Look, perhaps you don't understand why, but really, why are you doing this?"
"Simple. For me to be recognized…"
"I see…" Trixie said "…in other words, you're doing this to prove yourself that you're a country. You know what, what I really hate at a guy is that guy trying to love me for selfish reasons…" This instantly struck everyone presently.
"Let's be stark here…" Trixie said "…you're a country and I'm just an ordinary 5th grader who happens to be popular. The reason why I chose this someone over you because he is kind, helpful and trustworthy…"
"Ehem…" Wanda, disguised as a pink pen on the table, coughed.
"…but you see, you're doing this in the hopes that you will be recognized. I'm so sorry, but that is not the kind of love I want." At that moment, Sealand just slammed the door and went outside.
"You heard it on Trixie's mouth Timmy…" Wanda whispered "…hope you have a better look next…"
"We're not encouraging him Wanda…" Britain said. "Now is the first time I feel pity for him."
"But you're his motherland right?" Tootie recalled.
"He's just a platform at the sea… now I realize why Japan added him on that series…"
"There there…" Latvia said while becalming Sealand down. "See, you learned your lesson. As personifications, we are different."
"Yeah… I know that… I know, I don't need her to prove that I'm a country. All I need is just to process some goods, develop an economy, and they would soon recognize me!" Sealand yelled. "But the problem is…"
"WHAT GOODS SHOULD I PRODUCE!" Sealand yelled. Latvia is happy now that his energetic 'friend' is now back to normal.
Attempt 4
"Alright, back to the…"
"Um, I think I better leave now…" Timmy said.
"Wait where are you…" at that moment, Timmy left the room. The two girls just followed, trying to chase him.
"Oh dear…" Britain said "Perhaps a better time I supposed?"
Note to Readers:
I'm posting the Rewrite of the Trial of the Secret Wish under the title 'Secret Wish Turnabout' in my other account. Despite featuring the countries on some parts, this focuses on what if Britain was tasks into finding a different Defense Attorney, one of the best Japan has to offer. Please nhote that it's a prequel of the whole PODMD series and also mentions the invasions noted on Wishetalia
