"Shhh! They're waking up!" A hush voice scolded the rest of the countries. The five watched intentively as the human slurred awake. "Ice to meet you!"

"Dude, seriously?"

The human observed their surroundings, seeing the five Nordic countries' eyes on them.
"C-countries?" They scooted away from them.

"Brother, what are they speaking in? I don't get a word they said." Iceland tugged Norway's sleeve.

"They're speaking in Old Norse, I believe you and Finland do not know how to speak it, no?" Norway replied.

" From what I heard, Old Norse and Icelandic are quite similar... " Iceland scratched her neck.

"I only got a grasp of it, I didn't feel like learning the whole language itself. " Finland crossed their arms.

"Of course you didn't. "

"Svíaríki¹? Why are you dressed differently?" The human noticed the familiar quiet country staring at them.

"Y/N... Why didn't you come back that day? You promised that you've returned." Sweden frowned at the memory where he had waited for them to return for decades.

"I was returning back from the German kingdom with some wine but I took a wrong turn. "

...

The young adult waved goodbye to their new friends that they somehow managed to make.

They headed back to where they call their homeland with a stash of supplies to make it through the journey.

"I left the map..." Y/N muttered, looking back at their tracks. They are unable to go back, their supplies would not last through the journey back.

They look at the two different tracks, trying to rack up their brain for what route they took. In the end, they took the one on the left. Walking through the snow, the temperature began lowering with each mile they took.

(Imagine reading this as a national geography narrator.)

They took a look at their supplies, and there weren't that much left. Y/N had to resort to hunting for food. They settled near a cave where they would rest in for a day.

They took the materials that are needed to craft a spear. Hiding within the bush, they awaited for a prey. A small rabbit hopped around, they seek for the right opportunity to strike.

It was a success, though it could only last Y/N for a while. Y/N has to hunt for a bigger animal. The human sat in the cave with a tiny fire that was just enough to cook the rabbit meat.

They sat down, contemplating about their life decisions, chewing on the hot meat. They took a glance at the wine that they had brought, hoping that they could make it to their best friend's house alive.

They leaned against the hard wall, closing their eyes.

...

Y/N woke up to a bunch of portals opening and closing. Some were even shooting lasers, destroying the trees. (Not so team trees of them)

They watched as the portals singlehandedly exterminated a huge range of trees. Thankfully, the cave is a safe space, or maybe not... A portal opened up, and unfortunately, a laser shoot out.

Now the cave is left without a top.

"Screw it."

Y/N took their belongings and made the dash for it, dodging each and every of the hot lasers randomly shooting out.

Whoever is opening the portals up is really having a difficult fight right now.

Random objects began coming out of the portals. Every time would be an unimaginable object or possibly a living being.

A wet substance poured onto them, making them drenched. "Since when do those aim downwards -"

"WAh?!" Y/N nearly dodged a flying sheep that was aimed at them, falling on their butt. But it was not the time to rest as glass was lunged at a high speed at their face. They immediately picked up their feet, merely escaping before it explodes their head.

They felt their hands freezing, and they might suffer a frostbite after this hectic event. Despite all that, they continued to push through until the frozen lake.

Leaning against a hard object, they tried to catch a breath before cold water was dumped on them from above.

They couldn't do a thing, the cold was taken over them, and they were too tired to do a thing.

...

"Here, I was planning to give you this wine." Y/N smiled, handing Sweden a very vintage wine.

"Uh, I think that's expired. Swe, I don't think it will be a great choice to drink it." Denmark remarked. Sweden looked at them before opening the bottle and drank it.

" Well, let's conduct an experiment then! " Sweden smiled, wiping his mouth. Y/N smiled in delight, thinking that Sweden had accepted their apology by drinking the wine.

"Hey, Svíaríki, let's hang out again. It's been a long time ever since we last hanged out."

"Yeah.. a really long time."

"Let's go stargazing!" Y/N grinned, getting of the bed. The countries watched as they ignore their existence and walked out of the door. They looked out of the window, seeing that the sun was already setting.

"Not when your in that! We got to find you a new clothing!" Sweden skedaddle after them, pulling them back by their scruff.

"Since when did Sweden have a love life?" Denmark pout, crossing their arms. " though it kinda explains why he was sad."

"Huh what do you mean?" Finland tilt their head from curiosity, Iceland too leaned in, wanting to know.

"Finland sweetie, you see, Swe was a very cheerful young lad back in the days." Denmark sat on the bed, urging others to sit around them for story time.

"We would usually meet up every week or so, but for what reason Swe stopped visiting. Fin, when you gained independence from him, he was really quiet and intimating no?"

"Yes...I was shivering at how he stared at me, sometimes I wished that I had never gained independence when I remember that look."

"Took him like a really long time to force him out of his shell. To be honest..this is the first time I seen him this happy in ages! Oh my! My old Swedie is coming back!" Denmark smiled, seeing that his friend gaining back his true colours.

Author's note:

Svíaríki¹ - Swede Kingdom(basically Sweden yuh)

Ramadan is here :3
I hope Muslims that are fasting aren't pushing themselves to do physical activities. To be honest, I'm really impressed that some of my Muslim friends still continued to do physical activities 😭.

I like to think that Sweden was in his emo teen phase before meeting with Y/N again :3

Edit: my new phone is not trustable when updating the story too ong 😭
