I woke in a cold sweat and the sound of some really ominous whispering.Still chained to this pipe,but I could see Romano in the corner.He appeared to be praying,and shaking.

"Imsorry....I've sinned...Grandpa forgive me...."

I stood up and the clanging sound made him turn around.There were tears in his eyes and he quickly wiped them."YOU DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING."

"So your religious."He came toward me but this time he really didn't know what to do.Confused and frustrated."What of it?You don't care stupid ragazza."

The itching went away but I was extremely cold and hungry.Those violent shivers wouldn't leave me alone."I can tell you don't want to do this.Was it your brother."

He bit his lip and turned to the side,avoiding my gaze.Lets flip these sides shall we?"I know Spain misses you a lot,we can put an end to all of this."

"That jerk tomato bastard doesn't care!If he did,then when I called him he would pick up.AND HE DIDN'T."

"Let me try."
He started dialing on his phone and then put it up to my ear to hear the ringing.

*ringing*

"Lo siento wrong number señor-"
He voice was kind of nervous,sort of in a panic."It's (c/n)."

"I'm in a pickle right now,but why are you using Romano's phone?Is he there with you?"

I told him yes,and then I could hear his breath hitching and some moving of the phone."W-well just tell him I might not get out of this one alive,just tell him that......can you put him on?"

"Romano.He wants to talk to you."

He put it up to his ear and said hello,followed by a extreme blush."Wait you might not make it out?Where are you tomato bastard?!?"

...

"WE SHALL COME SAVE YOU!"
Romano hung up but then unlocked my handcuffs."Why the change of heart."

He sighed but then smiled."I....Ill tell you later if I can."Opening the door the warm air hit me and it felt really good.I followed him to another room,and I kind of his behind him because of what I was wearing.

"Can Croatia come."
He rolled his eyes and nodded yes.
"Ok jerks enough of the torture I need him."When I peeked out the side I saw Croatia in only his boxers tied to a chair.Blushing I just covered my eyes.

Romano said to wait for him to get dressed but then I asked him another question.It was bothering me for some time so I just needed to know if it's true or not."Romano.Your Italy's brother correct."

He said yeah but it didn't sound really convincing."If we are going to be working together on this one I just want the truth.It confuses me,because he says your brothers but you two are complete opposites."

"OK!Just don't tell him ok he really doesn't know.In reality no I'm his half brother,I'm actually Greece's full brother so just shut up about it!"

I still don't know if he's lying or not,but I'll let it slide for now.The door opened behind Romano and then a pair of arms started choking him.

"AHGHH ST-AGG-OP"

"Croatia stop."
Of course it was him,and he did stop.When he saw me he blushed and Romano wanted to kill him.I was forced to hold him back.

I explained everything to Croatia and then we were all caught up."Ok so what's the plan,like how are we going to get to Spain?Where even is he?"

"Well he told me that he was fighting and old friend,but he's a bastard,so he doesn't have any friends."

"Wasn't Spain a pirate before?"
Romano nodded but yelled at me for being off topic."Britain....isn't with us so.....Would it be France?But they are allies that wouldn't really make sense..."

"Wait Britain is dead?.....MY LIFE GOAL HAD BEEN REALIZED!I CAN FINALLY REJOICE-"

He just went on for a good 5 minute praising about how good it was that Britain was dead.Still don't know why he hates him so much,or is it just out of fear?But France would be a good place to start.

I mean someone could really care for him,I'm just curious who does."Well France is something,but how do we get there?"Said Croatia covering his eyes.

"...hmm I have a plan.Follow me."

I took Croatia's other hand and guided him around for a while but he removed his other hand as well.With the way both of us are looking,it's hard to tell we are even countries.

As we were following,Croatia started talking."Are you sure about wearing that?I mean,it's kind of...revealing."
He was blushing a lot and I could tell that he was getting a little dizzy.

"I'm not to ok with it either but it's just for a while I hope.So just deal with it ok?" He sighed excessively and put a hand around me keeping me close to his side.

"What you've never seen her naked before?What kind of innocent couple are you?"Romano said looking over his shoulder with a smirk.I watched as steam came out of Croatia's ears and he starters shaking.

"W-w-wa-wait!You saw my girlfriend n-naked?!?(c/n) I might need to kill him...."

"No I didn't,I just wanted to see your stupid reaction."Somehow he was right,Croatia's reactions are always funny.

We were walking in the back allies,because being out in the open was both embarrassing for me and just inconvenient.Romano being a Mafia boss and all.

Anyone who saw us either got scared or just respected us just by seeing him with us.Romano had that threatening face I guess,and people must have heard his name around.

We walked all the way to this airplane hanger,and it had the words 'Hasta la pasta' on the side in red.He pressed a button on the side making some stairs come out."Ok jerks come in."

He went to go start it up,and left us awkwardly in the back which was surprisingly comfy.There was a couch,a wine cooler,mini fridge and even i pads on the table.

I picked one up and had to find out where to get a world map at.When I did find a intractable one,I noticed a few things.

First off,U.K. Was wiped off the map completely,now being absorbed by Ireland.He or she must be extremely happy for all of that land.

Next,I noticed that there were some boats off the coast of Spain and France so I clicked on it.I saw A fleet of boats,and then one person on the edge of both.It almost looked like an old times pirate movie.

Both had long swords,pointed toward each other and wearing a ridiculous pirate uniform.One I could tell was France,and the other I'm guessing is Spain.

He has kind of long hair pulled back into a pony tail,and dark green eyes.I noticed someone that looks just like that guy on France's boat,but just tied up to a post.Were they twins?

"We are on course to France,it's going to take us a day or two to get there so the tomato bastard better last."
Romano came on the mic for us to hear.Why does he always call him a bastard?

And why is France battling him,they are on the same team....actually at this point of the war I can't tell if it's a free for all or not.I wouldn't mind just being neutral but I've done too much already.

I stood up shakily and went to inspect the jet.There was a mini kitchen and a bathroom,but there was a nice bed in the back.Looking at the time I wanted to go to sleep,but I wasn't really tired so I went back to Croatia.

"Croatia,what happened to those happy days we used to have."His breath hitched and he faked a cough."W-well we can make new happy times okay?"

I smiled and nodded my head,not really answering my question,but it kind of made me look forward to the future.Avoiding things is a strong point for Croatia.

I saw he was looking at something on his tablet so I peered over his shoulder out of curiosity.He wasn't really looking at anything,just the mass of countries.

"Hey (c/n), I have a question,is there a bed or something back there I'm getting tired *yawn* bed time is calling..."I nodded and pointed to the door in the back and he stood up.I just held his hand and then when he saw the bed kind of backed up.

"YoucansleephereI'lltakethecouch."
He said it really fast but I got the gist of what was said.The strange thing is that he didn't move after that just a nervous stare.Like he was trying to read my feelings on my emotionless face.

"It's fine.Cant we just both sleep here?The bed is decent size..."
I jumped on it and showed him.Rolling his eyes he just climbed in and faced one wall.

I couldn't sleep.
