Chapter 7: Awaken

Germany- 1915
~

Y/N woke up in a comfy soft bed. The blanket was dark and soft. They look down to see they're wearing black pajamas... did their commander change them into these..? No surely it was a butler or maid.

They looked around and saw a flag hanging on a pale wall. The flag was black and white with a black eagle on the left side. They also saw a pickelhaube sitting on a dresser. Y/N got up and noticed most of the furniture in the room were dusty and old. Cobwebs were at the corners of the room, and cracks were shown from the pale painted walls.

Y/N walked over to a desk and saw an unfinished note, and quail was resting upon the letter with an ink jar beside them. They gently picked up the letter from the dusty and old desk.

"Dear German Empire,
You've grown a lot after the past years, and I've grown old and weak. My body is to the point where it's cracking, I've reached my end. Your duty is to protect what I've created. You're in charge now, and that's what matt -"

The letter was left from there, the person must've been busy. Y/N looked around and saw another door by an old dresser where the pickelhaube laid, bathroom maybe? They set the letter down and went over towards the door. Twisting the knob they opened it to see a bigger and older room. More dusty and worn out, gold glistened from the faint lights that shun from the tall windows.

As Y/N walked inside the room, they saw that bookshelves were everywhere on the walls and books that lay on the old dusty ground. They saw a big king-sized bed with a red old blanket and Crimson pillows. A yellow flag hung above dark wooden French doors with a two-headed eagle on it.

Y/N walked around more and wondered inside a wardrobe. They opened it to see many clothes, mostly elegant old clothes from many, many years ago. Even a golden crown lie on a Crimson pillow in the middle of the big wardrobe.

The young man/lady/person started to try on the clothes, stripping from their dark pajamas and putting on pale and surprisingly clean elegant clothes that hung around. As they wore the old clothes, they walked out of the wardrobe to look in the mirror.... baggy. Sure, the person who last wore these must've been tall... but also dead.

Y/N stared at themselves. The clothes felt warm and comfy. It even gave them some pride seeing themselves in elegant clothes. They tense up once they heard a chuckle, Y/N turned around and saw their commander leaning on the door frame smiling softly at the young soldier. Y/N blushed in embarrassment. How long have he been standing there????

"What are you doing with those clothes, Y/N?" He asked. He started walking towards them. Y/N sweated nervously and looked down, they're embarrassed that their commander watched them wearing baggy and elegant clothes.

"I-I was curious, I'm sorry, commander, don't be mad." Y/N said, German Empire tilts his head, and he smiled at the young soldier.

"Why would I be mad? They're not my clothes and this isn't my room, of course. Besides, you don't look that bad wearing them, I'll even say they could be your own uniform." Commander said, Y/N looks up from the floor. Their own uniforms? How lucky they are, though, of course, the other soldiers would get jealous. Would Gunther and Felix get jealous as well...? Surely not.. right?

"Are you sure commander? What if the other soldiers get jealous of how you're treating me..?" Y/N asked, they scratched behind their neck.

The commander hums and nods, "True, how about this? It'll be your uniform only during meetings and gatherings."

"Thank you, commander.." Y/N said with a smile. German Empire smiled back and chuckled again.

"Please call me Reich."
