I own nothing!
Calistrophia: Thanks! I haven't done a Puerto Rico chapter yet...would you mind explaining it to me a little bit before I catastrophically fail do to not understanding completely? :)
Gilbird: I will definitely put North Carolina in this chapter!
Guest: Thanks! :)
Rosemary: Thanks! When I first started that chapter, I wasn't going to do the whole Guam and Pennsylvania thing...but then I started writing. And it just happened...weird how that sometimes happens...:)
It was morning when Pennsylvania and England went back inside.
"So, you don't hate me?" England asked hopefully.
"All I felt was annoyance...but Massachussetts, he really does hate you." Pennsylvania advised. "Stay away from him."
The nation nodded with his eyes wide.
When they went inside, they noticed that all of America's kids were in the same room.
"This is a state meeting." Jacob explained. "We do this to try to resolve some of our problems, although we never really get anything done."
England nodded. It was like that with the world conferences too.
"I'll see you later, I guess..." Pennsylvania waved as he went to go sit next to a strange person who seemed to not belong there.
"Who are you?" New Jersey asked.
The meeting had many chairs scattered across the room. Each of America's children sat according to where they were located on the map. From the sky, it would look like a replica of the United States.
"I'm Delaware." he nodded extremely quickly, happy to be noticed.
"Guys, we have a new state!" New Jersey shouted out loud.
"I'm the first state..." he sighed. (AN: This is actually entirely true. I'm a Delawarian myself, and people from New Jersey don't know where we are. Strange, since English people know...)
"He's not a new state..." Penn decided. "But he should become one with me once more..." Jacob grinned, an entirely new person now.
"Maine!" Delaware ran to the other state.
This was how this fight normally went. Maine and Delaware went on one side, while Pennsylvania and Massachussetts went on the other.
"Please don't fight..." Ohio sighed.
All four states went back to their spots almost immediately. Ohio had this sort of power at this time of the year, election time. Everyone wanted Ohio to vote for the same canidate they did.
"Anyway," D.C. spoke up from where he was crushed in between Virginia and Maryland. "Let's talk about our biggest problem."
"Yes," Maryland caught on. "The nations. I am afraid that they will try to break us apart, especially Russia."
The states nodded, suddenly strangely quiet.
"Well," the newly recovered Texas looked Oklahoma in the eye. "What do you think we should do, lassie?"
Her eyes gleamed, since she rarely got the chance to speak at these meetings. "We should get some guns and some lassos..." she began.
Everyone groaned, knowing fully well where that was going.
"What about you, North?" South Carolina turned to her twin.
Caroline stood up. "We should come to them peacefully. If we ask, surely at least some of them would leave. The ones who stay will probably include Russia. This is where Alaska comes in. Alaska, you are aware that Russia wants you to come back to his house, right?"
Alaska nodded from all the way across the room. "Da."
"So, if you ask him to do something that would suggest you being a little extra friendly towards him-" North Carolina was cut off.
All of the states from the Louisiana Purchase looked up. "A little extra friendly? What if he gets the wrong impression?" the question was innocent enough.
"Russia is, like, Alaska's father!" Florida looked disgusted. "Just, no!"
"Anyway..." the northern Carolina looked up. "Somehow get him out of the main house."
Alaska nodded, at least she had something she could do.
"Can England stay?" Guam questioned, remembering the night before.
Pennsylvania nodded in agreement.
"Never!" Massachussetts cried. "He cannot be forgiven! You, Penn, of all people should agree with me!"
"I believe in second chances." Jacob stood up to give a speech. "If you get a second chance, you can be more awesome than before. England proved last night to me that he has changed since the Revolution and deserves a second chance."
Massachussetts grumbled, but he said nothing more.
"Anyway," North Carolina continued. "The other nations...well, we'll ask again, but depending on who they are, we might have to use other methods."
"Like what?" Palau demanded, he and the three other territories-turned-nations have been stuck in America since this whole thing started.
"We can use our appeal!" California stated.
Everyone looked slightly disturbed.
"That wouldn't work..." Kansas mentioned.
"It might work on France." the Golden state reminded.
"But he's our ally."
They were quiet once more.
"Well," North Carolina shrugged. "We can do that as a start."
"Meeting dismissed!" D.C. escaped the room quickly.
Review! Sorry for the short chapter...:)
