A functional rescue group, and Matthew in Chibiland
Romano and Prussia had decided it would look suspicious if both of them suddenly left the room together so Prussia let Romano leave first. Then he would meet up with the Italian after five minutes had passed.
Prussia was trying to creep out of the room in super stealth mode, but he was somehow seen by Netherlands. "Hey Prussia what are you doing?" The tall blonde asked.
Prussia grinned and waved a hand at Netherlands. "Oh me, I'm just going out to get some things." Prussia grinned at Netherlands.
The spiky haired blonde crossed his arms and shook his head. "That's bullshit tell me the truth."
"That is the truth I have no idea what you're talking about." Netherlands glared at Prussia and the albino sighed. "How did you know I was lying?" Netherlands smirked. "That's for me to know, and for you to never find out."
Prussia nervously ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "Okay, but come on I don't want these guys to hear this."
Netherlands nodded his head, and followed Prussia out of the room. "Okay so Romano and I decided that trying to find Birdie with that group in there would not work at all, so we're gonna do it ourselves."
"I want in on this…I'm worried about Canada too, and those guys are just going to argue with each other like they do during meetings." Netherlands pointed out bluntly.
"Fine." Prussia reluctantly agreed to the Dutch nation joining in.
When Prussia saw Romano standing in the hallway the Italian was talking with Romania. "Fine bastard I guess you're right." Romano reluctantly agreed to Romania's suggestion, and turned to look at Prussia who was walking down the hall with Netherlands.
"What the hell are you doing here bastard?" Netherlands grinned at Romano. "I'm here to help with your plan to find Canada."
Romano looked at Prussia, who just shrugged. "Whatever, this bastard is going to help us with the magical stuff I guess." Romano pointed to Romania, who smiled and waved at Prussia and Netherlands.
"Well first we should gather some of Canada's personal items."
"I know where Canada's hotel room is, I'm sure we could find some stuff in there." Netherlands offered. "I can pick a lock." Romano and Prussia said simultaneously, the two nations stared at each other in shock. "Don't ask." Both of them said simultaneously again.
"Okay then, I'll go get my things and you three can gather Canada's belongings." Romania walked away. "Meet me outside this building in thirty minutes."
"Come on, Matthew's hotel is just down the street." Prussia and Canada followed Netherlands down the hall and out of the building. "So you and Matteo are friends? " Netherlands nodded at Romano. "Yep, Matthew is pretty cool once you get to know him, but I don't really hang out with him all that often anymore." Netherlands scratched the back of his head.
"Why not? Birdie is awesome." Netherlands frowned. "It's not like I don't want to hang out with him, I just don't have the time to."
Prussia just nodded his head and stopped asking questions for now.
Five minutes later, they were standing outside the door to Canada's hotel room and Prussia was picking the lock. "Hurry up bastard!" Romano was worried that someone would see them trying to break into the hotel room.
Prussia glared at Romano and pushed the door open. "After you Roma." He said with a smug smile on his face.
Netherlands gave the two a strange look, but shook his head and walked into the neat hotel room. Romano also entered and Prussia walked in closing the door behind him.
Canada's hotel room was very neat no clothes on the floor at all, and the bed was perfectly made up. "So what exactly are we supposed to be getting?" Romano asked.
Prussia shrugged his shoulders and began looking around the room. "Personal items I guess." The albino walked into the bathroom and grabbed the toothbrush he saw on the counter. "I think this is pretty personal." He held up his find for the others to see.
Romano rolled his eyes and nudged Canada's suitcase open with his foot. Romano stared at the suitcase in shock. Over half of it was filled with bottles of maple syrup, 'Why the hell does he have this much maple syrup?' Romano examined the bottles, and realized that half of them were nearly empty. "The fuck?"
Romano shook his head and walked away from the suitcase, and grabbed a red hoodie off the back of chair. "Matteo wears this a lot, so it's probably really personal."
Romano turned around to see what Prussia and Netherlands were doing, Prussia was still holding up Canada's toothbrush as if it was some kind of prize and Netherlands was going through drawers.
"C'mon I know he still has it." He moved to the suitcase that Romano had kicked to the side, and began pulling things out of it.
"What the hell are you looking for bastard?" Netherlands ignored Romano and continued to pull things out of the suitcase. He began checking the side pockets of the suitcase, and a grin broke out on his face when his hand closed around the object he had been searching for.
Netherlands pulled out a scarf that matched his blue and white one except it was red and white with little maple leaves on it. "Ha I knew he would still have this!"
"How did you know that was in there?" Prussia stared at the scarf. Netherlands folded up the scarf and walked towards the door. "Canada really cares about his friends; I gave him this scarf a few years ago. Well me and Ukraine gave it to him a few years ago." He said softly. "I knew he would still have it." He added.
Prussia and Romano followed Netherlands out the door and back to the conference building. "Do you think Romania is ready?" Romano checked the time on his watch and shrugged his shoulders. "He should be ready by now."
The three nations walked to the meeting room and met up with Romania in the front of the conference building.
Canada rubbed his head and slowly sat up, everything was blurry and he had no idea how he had gotten here. All the Canadian could remember was falling through that hole, and now he was in a room he didn't recognize and he didn't have his glasses on.
"Oh maple." Canada reached around blindly hoping to find his glasses somewhere, when he suddenly touched something that felt very warm, and felt almost like another person. Canada quickly pulled his hand back and looked up, only seeing a blurry form that resembled the shape of a person.
"I believe these are your's." A deep voice that the Canadian didn't recognize said. His glasses were placed into his hand and when Canada looked up he saw a tall man that resembled Ludwig but with longer hair.
"U-um who are you?" Canada asked slowly standing up. The man glared at Canada, and the Canadian trembled. He felt like the man was looking into his very soul with those cold blue eyes.
"…I am Germania…follow me." This man frightened Canada, but it wasn't like he had any other options so he followed Germania to a doorway.
Germania opened the door and led Canada outside into a snowy forest; the Canadian stared at Germania in shock when he almost ran into a pole. "Am I in Narnia?" He asked in a daze.
Germania pushed tree branches out of the way and continued walking, not checking to see if Canada was following. "Nein it is more like Alice in wonderland, you did fall into a hole after all." Canada thought that this made since and quickened his pace to catch up with Germania. "Well do you know w-why I'm here?"
"You will find out soon enough." Canada frowned at this answer and ducked under a tree branch, the forest seemed to get thicker and it was hard to keep up with Germania.
"Where's my polar bear?"
"You will find out soon enough." Canada groaned as a branch smacked him in the head. "Maple that hurt…" He mumbled. Too focused on his new head injury Canada didn't notice Germania stop until he ran into the others back. "Huh?" Canada watched as Germania pulled out a key and inserted into the…air?
'What the heck is he doing there's no door there we're in the middle of a forest?' Canada thought to himself, considering the sanity of his guide he began to back away. However, he stopped dead in his tracks when a section of the forest the size of a door disappeared and a group of expensive fur coats was revealed.
"W-what?!" Germania brushed the coats aside and walked into the closet, Canada followed afraid that the magical door would close on him. "Are you sure we're not in Narnia?" Canada asked.
Germania opened another door and led Canada into a large, empty room. "Where are we?" Germania pointed to a small door in the corner of the room. That was only knee high and a few inches wider than that. "This is as far as I go, but do not worry there will be others to help you on your journey."
Canada looked at the door then Germania. "Um I can't fit through that. Aren't you supposed to give me some magical drink that shrinks me?" Germania shrugged his shoulders. "Probably, but I'm not going to."
"W-what! How am I supposed to get through that little door then?"
Germania examined Canada then the door. "I think you can fit through it." He said nonchalantly. Canada sighed and walked towards the tiny door pushing it open. He placed his arms by his side and slowly crawled forward edging his way out inch by inch.
About halfway through the little door Canada got stuck, he squirmed and attempted to get free, but it was all in vain he was definitely stuck. "Um Germania…I'm stuck…"
Canada didn't receive a response. "U-um Germania did you hear me?" Still no answer. "Stupid hoser leaving me stuck in this damn hole." Canada muttered under his breath still trying to wiggle out of the small space.
"Where you referring to me?" Canada squeaked when Germania suddenly appeared in front of him. "Wait how did you get out here?" Germania pointed to a normal sized door right next to the one Canada was squeezing out of.
The Canadian face palmed. "And why couldn't I go out that door?"
Germania shrugged. "You didn't ask." He said simply. Canada rolled his eyes and groaned. "Can you just get me out of this door?" Germania grabbed Canada's hands and began to pull. The Canadian tried to make himself smaller hoping it would speed up the process, Germania tugged the Canadian's arms and he suddenly came flying out of the door.
Being the nice person that he is Germania moved back so Canada could face plant the ground instead of being caught. Canada glared at Germania pieces of grass stuck to his face. "You're welcome."
Canada rolled his eyes and stood up, brushing himself off. "Yeah thanks for that."
Germania crossed his arms. "You should really hurry up; you're already late for your…journey."
"What journey?" Canada asked desperate to get some answers from Germania. "You will find out soon enough."
Germania walked through the normal sized door and closed it before Canada could ask any more questions. The Canadian groaned. "Stupid hoser ignoring me." He whispered to himself, Canada sighed and decided what this place looked like since he would probably be here for a while.
It seemed like an ordinary place, just a field surrounded by a few scattered trees nothing special. Though Canada had to admit it was rather pretty, and the mountains he could see in the distance gave the place a majestic feel.
As soon as Canada began to relax, a hand tapped him on the shoulder startling the Canadian out of his peaceful state. Canada turned around to see a very cheerful looking man, with curly dark brown hair, and light brown eyes.
"Hi I'm Rome, I bet you already met Germania didn't you? Germania and I are really good friends he's such a nice guy." The man chattered on endlessly, reminding Canada of a certain Italian nation he knew. Not Romano of course Romano was never happy like this, Canada was referring to the Northerner half of Italy. But anyways back to the cheerful man who was a friend of Germania.
"Y-you're friends with Germania?" Canada asked reluctantly. Rome eagerly nodded his head, and as soon as he got the confirmation, Canada spun around and tried to open the door. Sadly, for the Canadian the door was locked and he had no escape. "Damn hoser, and now I have to deal with another one." He mumbled to himself.
However, Rome didn't hear the Canadian. "So you're Matthew huh? That's nice well I have to show you the way to your next stop so follow me!" Once again, Canada considered running away, but once again, he was in an unfamiliar place, so he followed the strange happy man and hoped for the best.
"So Matthew how have you been? Do you like it here? I like it here it's a very nice place. I just wish that there were more pretty women, I mean the women here are very pretty, but I wish there were more. Do you get what I'm saying, oh maybe you don't. Do you play for the other team?" Canada contemplated smashing his head into one of the nearby trees to get away from the very talkative man, but before he could get away Rome grabbed his hand and pulled him to the side.
"Shhh we have to be very quiet here…." Rome held his breath and pulled Canada behind a tree as a large group of cats walked by.
Canada looked at the cats, then back to his guide. "Why are you afraid of these cats?" He whispered. Rome quickly clamped a hand over Canada's mouth and shushed him.
Once the cats were gone, Rome released Canada and relaxed. "What was that about?" Rome ignored Canada's question and looked in the direction the cats had come from. "They came from the village; oh I hope nothing bad happened to the little ones."
Rome grabbed Canada's wrist and started dragging him along. Canada noticed that they were heading away from the mountains. "Can you please tell me where we're going?"
Rome mumbled something to himself, and answered Canada without turning around. "To the village, I think you will like the little ones, they're so adorable." Rome smiled.
Canada was confused, but he had already realized that he would be confused a lot in this place so he just followed Rome, and wondered what his friends were doing right now.
Prussia, Romano and Netherlands were standing in front of the meeting building waiting on Romania. "Where the hell did that bastard go?" Prussia shrugged his shoulders and Netherlands just adjusted his scarf.
Romania ran up to the trio with a bag in one hand and a black cloak in the other. He smiled at the three nations and took a deep breath. "Sorry it took me so long, I had a little trouble finding the right materials."
"You have everything you need right?" Prussia tried to see what was in the bag. Romania took a step away from Prussia and rubbed at the back of his head nervously.
"Well like I said I had a little trouble finding all the materials, but I think the spell should work…probably." Romania's voice sounded unsure, and Romano became nervous. "What happens if this spell doesn't work?"
Romania casually waved his hand, brushing off Romano's question. "It'll be fine, where are the things that you gathered?" Romania was given the scarf, toothbrush and hoodie, he examined the items closely before giving an approving nod and turning to look at the others. "Now all we need is to find a secluded place to complete the spell."
Canada stared at the tall golden gates looming over him in shock. Rome had told him they were going to the village and he had expected to see a quaint little place. That was not the case at all; instead, he was met with this beautiful ornate golden gate. "Wow is this the village you were talking about?"
"Nope." Rome said popping the 'p' "This is the gate way to her house."
"Her?" Canada asked but Rome didn't supply him with an answer. "Come on the village is right over here." Rome walked to the right of the large gate and Canada followed him.
"Here we are!" Rome exclaimed gesturing to a large group of small houses. "Welcome to Chibi Village."
Canada stared at all of the multicolored houses that made up the village, he towered a good two feet over most of the houses and he began to think this was some kind of joke. "W-what is this?"
"Didn't you hear me? I said it's Chibi Village." Rome looked completely serious, but Canada was still having trouble believing all of this nonsense. 'I feel like I'm in the Smurf village or something.'
"Hey you guys can come out, Matthew is a nice guy." Rome said, and Canada wondered whom the man was talking to.
However, before the Canadian could question Rome, a crowd of chibis ran up and crowded around Canada and Rome. 'I am in the Smurf village!'
Canada stared at the chibis in shock, and slowly began to back away. All of the little chibis resembled the nations of the world.
"What the m-maple?" Canada whispered. Rome laughed and picked up the Italy Chibis. "Everyone say hello to Matthew."
All of the chibis looked at Canada with big eyes, some of them smiling others frowning but they all offered some sort of greeting to the Canadian. America latched onto his leg and began rambling about superheroes. France began a conversation with Canada in French. Cuba latched onto his other leg and started arguing with America. Prussia decided to shoot him in the head with an arrow and got scolded by Hungary, well Canada thought it was Hungary she kind of looked like a boy though.
Rome laughed, "Okay little ones give him some space." The chibis reluctantly backed away and Canada relaxed, but was confused why he didn't see a little Canada anywhere. "Hey where's the little Canada?"
Rome looked to Al. "Al do you know where Matt is?" The little American pointed to a nearby house that was bright red. "He's been in there all day and he says he's not coming out."
Rome frowned. "Why not?" Al just shrugged his shoulders and walked away with a group of five other chibis. Canada walked up to the house Al had pointed out and knocked on the door.
"Go away Al." Canada frowned and knocked again. A loud sigh and some shuffling from the other side of the door.
The door slowly opened and a blond chibi head poked out. "Al I already told you that I-" The chibi stopped talking and stared up at Canada with large violet eyes. "A-are you m-me?"
Canada smiled and nodded his head. "Yeah I am…well I'm a different version of you I guess." Canada wasn't entirely sure how this all worked, but didn't dwell on it.
The chibi nodded his head and grabbed Canada's arm motioning for him to bend down. Canada kneeled down and looked the chibi in the eye wondering what he could want.
"I-I know something that nobody else knows but I'm afraid to tell them. I'm going to tell you because I think I can trust you." Canada nodded his head and waited for the chibi to continue. "N-not here…no one else can hear this." Canada nodded again in understanding and let the little Canadian lead him away from the village.
The chibi version of himself led him far into the woods, away from the rest of the village and sat down near a tree. Canada took a seat next to the Chibi and waited for him to say something.
The space in the cave of awesome had been cleared out so that Romania could prepare for his spell. As soon as he deemed the space adequate Romania shooed the others out of the room, insisting that he needed to be completely focused for what he was about to do and they would only cause a distraction.
Twenty minutes later Prussia was pacing around the kitchen annoying both Romano and Netherlands. "Why is it taking him so long? I hope he's not ruining the cave of awesome." Romano rolled his eyes. "Calm down bastard."
Prussia sighed and continued to pace. "I'm just really worried about Birdie. Whenever stuff like this happens in a movie, something really bad happens. Birdie could be stuck doing something stupid like helping a village of weaklings get back to their happy lives. Because they have someone evil terrorizing them! Birdie shouldn't have to get sucked into that corny movie shit!"
Romano and Netherlands stared at Prussia. "Bastard what happened to staying calm?"
"Yeah Prussia I'm sure Matthew is fine."
Prussia ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "Yeah you guys are probably right, but I just can't help worrying about him." Prussia lowered his head. Romano stood up and placed a hand on Prussia's shoulder. "Stop moping bastard! You're talking as if we're never going to find him! We are going to find Matteo and that's final." Romano glared at Prussia, and the albino nodded his head.
"You're right Roma, I won't give up!"
Netherlands stared at Prussia, eyebrows raised. "Why do you keep calling Romano Roma?" Prussia grinned and Romano face palmed muttering something about dumb nicknames.
"Speaking of that did you come up with a nickname for me?" Romano rolled his eyes. "How about idiot." Prussia pouted. "That's not a good nickname!" Netherlands chuckled and the other two nations continued to argue until Romania called them down stairs to the basement.
"Okay everything is ready now."
