America and Japan had just arrived at Russia's house. America tugged on the door handle lightly and then began trying to rip the door from its hinges.

"Damn it, it's locked!" he shouted out

"Obviousry…" Japan said as he walked up to the door and knocked on it politely.

"Russia-san, are you home?" They didn't hear an answer. "He must not be home…" Japan said

"Obviously…" America muttered, not wanting to feel stupid.

"We shourd carr France-san and Igirisu and see if they can herp us out a bit." ((Yeah, I know, I just really wanted to write "Igirisu"))

Japan called France's cell phone and didn't have to wait long before he picked up the phone.

"Bonjour, mon cher. Susciter mots français. I didn't expect you to call back so soon. Fraise gaufre. Now shall we-"

"France-san?" Japan asked. Japan could almost feel the heat of France's blush emanating through the phone.

"O-oh, Japan! E-erm, what was it that you needed?" France said after a moment.

"Russia isn't at his house and the door is rocked (locked)."

"Alright, I'll send China and Lithuania over there. In the meantime, search the grounds, okay?"

"Okay, we'rr do that."

"There wasn't anything else you needed? No? Okay, goodbye." France hung up abruptly leaving America and Japan to search the area around Russia's house.

((Elsewhere))

Germany and Italy wandered around the German town, occasionally stopping at several of the suspicious bars Prussia would occasionally visit. The two walked into one and Germany immediately wanted to leave.

"He's rather a-flexible, don't you think, Germany?" Italy said staring shamelessly at the dancer, "Do you think-"

"Nein," Germany said immediately, searching for someone to ask about his brother. He walked over to the bartender who looked vaguely familiar.

"What can I get you?" he asked politely

"Nothing. I'm looking for my bruder, have you seen him?"

"Not since yesterday afternoon."

Germany coughed in surprise. 'That liar told me he vas going to look over the paperwork for our meeting!' Germany thought to himself

"Ah… vell thank you anyvay…" Germany quickly led the curious Italian out of the bar and went in search of the next one.

((Elsewhere))

China and Lithuania had already hit several of Russia's hotspots without any luck. They were just about to call back to report in when China's cell phone rang.

"Ni hao," China answered

"Japan and America want you over at Russia's place," England said over the phone

"What for?" China asked, curious

"I don't know, France got the call over twenty minutes ago but he only just mentioned it now…"

China could hear England and France arguing on the other side of the phone line. There was a loud crash and the call dropped. China didn't bother calling back and left for Russia's house.

((Elsewhere, and half an hour earlier))

"France, I'm leaving you in charge of the phone," England said, tossing his cell phone to France, "I'm going to ask the other nations if they've seen either of them."

France pouted at the phone as England left. He poured himself a glass of wine and rubbed his finger along the rim of the glass in boredom. He sneaked a glance out the window to be sure England was really gone. He was.

France snickered to himself and quickly dialed a number on the phone.

"Ohononon, if I'm going to have the phone, I should at least make the most of it!"

Ten minutes, one steamy conversation, and one exchange of personal phone numbers later France was pouring himself another glass of wine when the phone rang. He rushed over to answer it.

"Bonjour, mon cher. Susciter mots français. I didn't expect you to call back so soon. Fraise gaufre. Now shall we-"

"France-san?" Japan asked from the other end. France's face went bright red, he had forgotten that this was England's phone. Luckily, he recovered from his mistake and managed to escape the conversation.

Not long after he hung up, his personal phone rang and he resumed his flirtatious voice. Twenty minutes passed and England returned.

"I'm back. I'm hoping you had better luck… France?" England looked over at the Frenchman who was quickly saying goodbye to someone over the phone.

"Have you even been paying attention this whole time?" England asked angrily

"I 'ave! America and Japan called twenty minutes ago asking for China and Lithuania to come over!"

"… And?"

"And… I never called them," France said as England scowled. "I was a bit busy."

"Wanker," England muttered as he called China's cell phone.
