I woke up from the dream I had when I fallen to sleep on the ship ride over to Turkey. My eyes had to adjust to the new lighting of my surroundings. I didn't feel very well and my head hurt very badly. I stood up stumbling as the cart bounced from a pot hole in the ground. I almost fell, but some how I kept my balance. "Brothers..." I slowly started to cry as the cart happen to pass an area that looked a lot like Arthur's back yard.
I fell to my knees and lied my head in the corner of the cart. I had spent the rest of the ride to Turkey's place crying. When I was almost done crying, Turkey opened the cart. I didn't move. I had tried to make myself look dead like Schneetier had taught me to do when ever I was in mortal danger. He came towards me very slowly and placed a hand on my shoulder. I tried not to tense at the touch and out of a feeling in the pit of my stomach, I closed my eyes.
"Get up. I know you are still alive," his voice oddly seemed gentle now. Why it was I had no idea, but at least I wasn't suffering much from damage done to my homeland. I stood up keeping my eyes closed. I didn't want my eyes to be seen. Because every time I cry, they appear whiter because the whites of my eyes become light blue. "Why are your eyes closed? Are you so scared that you don't want to see?" he asked me laughing.
"Nein. I'm not scared of seeing. I would look if I could, but my eyes wont allow it," I told him in a calm voice. I wasn't going to even try speaking any louder than a whisper. He tugged on my arm guiding me away from the cart into his house. He threw me into a room and told me to write a letter to my brothers stating where I was at and how to get me back. I growled slightly at being commanded to write. I did so, but I left a warning in my writing that Turkey would never be able to read.
Somewhere in England, I knew Schneetier was trying to warn my brothers of my absents. Arthur ended up figuring it out and since Alfred and Matthew were going to be there soon, he could tell them and they could go searching for me. When they got there, they already knew where I was. My letter had finally reached them. I knew because some of my blood had fallen on it because I had gotten a paper cut from folding it. Gladly Schneetier just had to get close enough to the letter to pick up Turkey's scent, and she, being a saber-toothed cat, was able to know where to go without reading the letter.
My head started to shake as I sensed Turkey coming into the room. "So are they coming to get you little Reinetier? Or are they going to leave you behind like the single speck of dust you are?" he asked me laughing as always.
I could hold back my tears from the hurtful words, but that helped me lie to him. "No. T-they're not coming for me," I lied looking own at my feet as though I was ashamed of my brothers. Truthfully though, I was glad they were coming and going to sneak up on Turkey. I wiped the tears from my face and then glared at Turkey. He smiled and it made a chill go down my spine.
'What game is he playing? Why do I have to be a part of it?" I thought with anger. I balled my hands into fists. 'I hate you so much! You're such a jerk of a nation, Turkey, and I will never let you see my thoughts or feelings!' After I though about this, he left the room laughing his stupid head off. I growled under my breathe, but then I heard a very familiar sound. It was the hissing of Schneetier. I ran over to the window and shouted her name and in return she let out a sound between a hiss and growl to something to her left. I wait a while and saw Arthur, Alfred, and Matthew run up behind her. My eyes widen with amazement at seeing them again. I heard them shout my name when they saw me and they placed their hands on the window I had stared out. I, in return, also placed my hands on the window, but I could not shout their names because Turkey would hear. "Arthur, Alfred, Matthew! You came!" I said blinking my eyes.
"Of course we came! You are our little sister! We would never let you get hurt. Remember? We made that promise to you earlier," Arthur told me and it made me cry a little that I had forgotten the promise they had made me. "Listen, we are going to get you out of there. We wont like Turkey harm you." My brothers left me staring out the window. My eyes widen with fear and I ran out of the room. If they were going to fight for me, I was going to help. I looked around Turkey's place looking for a weapon I knew how to use. I sadly could find anything, but I did happen to find a crowbar I might be able to use.
"I'm going to get out of here. I have to. For my brothers," I told myself then followed the sound of fighting that had already started. 'I have to be brave, but I don't know how to fight,' I thought to myself as I ran through the hallways. I finally made it to the entrance which was locked, so I had to kick it open. The brightness of actual sunlight blinded me, but I heard and sensed where everything was. "England watch out!" I shouted as I sensed Turkey behind my oldest brother. I ran at a Turkish soldier and smacked him with the crowbar. I may have been blinded by the sun, but I was use to being blind since I rarely opened my eyes around people. This case, however, was very different. I kept my eyes opened. I wanted the Turkish soldiers scared of me when they were acting my family.
Tears streamed down my eyes as I fought. This was my first battle with any nation and I was suffering from it, but the thoughts that I ran through my head made me fight. 'I have to fight. I don't want my brothers to get hurt. Even if they are older than me," this thought rang through my heart and head. I fought as hard as I could with just myself, my brothers, Schneetier, and a crowbar. I heard Turkish soldiers running away from the battle field. I panted and struggled to remain standing. My brothers had no problems as they remained standing cursing Turkey for kidnapping me. I smiled with joy before I fell to the ground with a thud.
