    I turn to face Benjamin, a nervous smile on my face. "Right, let's talk in the kitchen." I said, gesturing for him to follow me.
    I led him away from the countries and over towards the large kitchen. I sat on the island in the middle of the kitchen. "Explain." Benjamin said, putting the bag and tray on the bar next to me, crossing his arms.
I begin to explain everything from when I saw them to where he rang the doorbell. After I finished explaining, Benjamin pinched the bridge to his nose, moving his glasses up as he did so. "I thought I've seen everything. Ok what's your plan?"
    I looked at him, confused, "Plan?" I begin to stroke Echo gently, feeling her smooth scales helped with my stress.
    "Yes your plan! What are you going to do with these... human flags?" Benjamin questioned, gesturing towards the kitchen entrance.
    "Well I guess I'll let them stay here." I answered, shrugging.
    "Let them stay here!? Are you crazy!? Literally Third Reich and Soviet Union are part of this group. Not to mention they don't belong in this world!" Benjamin exclaimed but not too loudly.
    I could easily tell he was beginning to panic, and I thought I get stressed easily. "Relax, I doubt they are going to try anything." I said calmly. "Besides where else are they going to go?"
    Benjamin looked at me shocked, his eyes were as wide as saucers. "Your kidding right?"
    I shook my head, "Nope, I'm being serious. They don't know anything about this world and how they are basically countries... a plot of land."
    "I guess your right." Benjamin said with a sigh. "But please be careful, if anything happens let me know."
    I nodded, "Don't worry, I'm not an idiot. Besides... you know nothing gets past me."
Russia's POV
    I watched as the girl and the male disappear behind the wall. I couldn't help but feel ... interested about her. She didn't seem to freak out that much like the guy... Benjamin I think she said his name was. She seemed very calm and at ease, an aura coming off her screaming to listen to her. It surprisingly reminded me of my father whenever he is in a business meeting or really any meeting.
    "Alright, about the girl." My father said, using the similar aura the girl was using. "Should we trust her?" He questions.
    "I think we should, she didn't exactly kick us out once she saw us. Which by the way, I think any person would do." Germany stated, adjusting his glasses.
    "I'm with Germany on this one." I said, placing a hand on Germany's shoulder. "Same here." America said, stepping up to Germany's other side along with South Korea, France, and Britain.
    Poland looked unsure, as he began to fiddle with his fingers. "Are you all really this naive? We don't know anything about her, or what she even does for a living!" My father pointed out, placing his hands behind his back. "For all we know she could be a serial killer or sell body parts on the black market!"
    "Oh please, a girl dressed up fancy like that! She looked as if she was going to a business meeting than going out to kill someone!" Germany argued quietly.
    My father let out a groan, pinching the bridge of his nose. "I'm not saying she is going out killing people. I'm simply stating we should get to know more about her before we can trust her." He stated, crossing his arms.
    "He does ... sort of have a point." France said sheepishly.
    "Whose side are you on?" America questioned, raising a brow, crossing his own arms.
    "It's not about sides idiot, it's about the correct way we should go about this." North Korea said, rolling his eye.
    "What did you just call me!?" America growled.
    "Alright enough!" My father yelled, everyone froze. "Poland... what do you think?"
    All eyes turned to Poland, "I... I think we should get to know her more... but I think she seemed trustworthy."
    "It's settled, twice every month we will have meetings about her and see what we know. Once she is proven that she isn't dangerous the meetings will stop." My father stated. "Does everyone agree?"
    I look around at everyone who gave a small nod, "Yes father."
    My father turned to Third Reich who was sitting in the chair with his legs crossed. "Do you agree to this Reich?"
    "Yes, of course." Reich answered, saying something under his breath.
    "Good then it's settled." He said with a nod.
    At that moment she came back out saying, "Alright everyone good news... your all staying with me!" We all nodded, I gave her a small smile in thanks. "However I have some ground rules."
Your POV
I look around seeing everyone giving me unsure looks. "Rule number one ... don't destroy the house. Rule number two... don't go into my room without my permission if I'm in there just knock. Rule number three no one and I mean no one harms Echo, if I see so much as a scale out of place I will kick you out of this house without remorse. Rule number four-" I stopped, taking a breath to calm myself. "There is a room on the second story that has a bright red door... don't go in there. That is pretty much it oh and don't kill each other." I gave them a bright smile, saying the last one as a joke.
However I noticed everyone look over at Third Reich who just rolled his eyes, "Relax, I'm not planning on killing anyone... at the moment."
I sighed, "Well um... make yourselves at home for now. I'm going to go change into my normal clothes." I turned and walked up the stairs, Benjamin following me.
"How long do you want to stay here?" He asked as he followed me to my room.
"At least a week, just tell them that I got sick." I said, opening the door to my room. "Wait out here, This will just take me a second." He nodded, I closed the door.
I then opened up my closest, grabbing a (f/c) t-shirt that had a cut on the shoulders, exposing them, then chose out a pair of jean shorts. I then went into the bathroom, wiping off my makeup... or as much as I can.
I then walked out of my room, closing the door behind me. I saw Benjamin standing next to the door on his phone. I tapped him on the shoulder, he smiled saying, "Comfortable?"
"Yep!" I answered, walking down the hallway with him by my side.
"So what about your mother? She isn't going to take 'I'm sick as an excuse'." Benjamin asked, placing his phone in his pocket.
"Well ... that's just her problem. Just try and buy me some time." I said coldly, walking down the stairs.
Benjamin nodded, "Alright, I'll keep that in mind. The designs?"
"I'll still work on them, but they might be finished a bit later than planned." I answered formally.
"Understandable, well I'll be off. Just came by to check on ya and deliver your food." Benjamin said.
"Thanks. Talk to you later." I said, giving him a hug. He hugged back in return. Then left out of the door, I then walk to the living room seeing everyone seemed to be just sitting around.
I approached placing my hands on my hips, a smile on my face. "So, what type of games do you guys like?" I ask
"You have video games!" America asked, smiling in excitement.
I giggled, "Yep, any type of game." Most of them except for Soviet Union and Third Reich seemed to smile.
"Do you have Call of Duty?" America asked.
"Yep which one do you want?" I asked.
"Oh, how about the second one. We can play it with the zombies!" Russia suggested. Everyone, who was interested in playing video games, nodded in agreement.
"Yeah sure, I'll go get it." I said, beginning to walk away.
"Thank you um.." Germany said, seeming to trail off.
I mentally facepalmed. They introduce themselves to me but I didn't in return. I stopped walking, turning to them with a smile on my face, "(Y/N). My name is (Y/N)."
