Why now? (Discontinued)

First Loop - Part One

Kiku turned around to see Jay hugging him.

"Thank you, Jay."

She smiled greatly and nodded before going back to where Romano was sitting with Feli.

"Alright, dudes. The hero wants to go that way," America said pointing towards the hall that leads to the left.

England glared at America before giving in. "Fine, I will go with the git to make sure he doesn't get into any trouble."

Canada raised his hand too. "I'll join England and Am-"

"Alright fine. It iz decided," Germany boomed. Everyone split up and look around."

"Germany! Germany! Can we go to the right hall? Please?" Italy asked while jumping about.

Germany sighed and pinched his temples. "Yes, fine."

"Yay!"

Prussia nodded. "Nice! The awesome me wants to go!"

Japan raised his hand.

Germany pointed toward Japan and said, "Germany acknowledges his good friend Japan."

Japan nodded. "I wish to rook upstairs."

"By jourself?  Are jou ok vith zat?"

"Hai."

"Don't Japan," Feli whispered, "Don't do it."

"Alright, then it's settled. Let's get moving."

The scene changed from the Axis splitting to a much more morbid scene. Even a country that has faced the worst wars would quake in their boots from this.

"Japan!"

"Itary? Is that you?"

Italy started crying, "Si, Japan it's me. What happened? How did you get hurt?"

Japan looked downcast. "We aren't alone in this house. There is a monster too strong to beat-" Japan winced and took in a slow breath of air. "Itary. You need to get everyone out of the house."

Italy's' crying started to get harder. "But what about you? I'm not leaving you. Germany! Germany! Germa-"

"Shh-" Japan whispered "-We don't want the Thing to come back."

"No! I can't just abandon you Japan."

Japan looked up at Italy with pleading eyes. "For your sake and everyone else who is here. Get them out of this house."

"No! Not without you! You're going to make it. Germany and Prussia will come and they'll be able to save you!" Italy rambled while panicking. He had wrapped Japan's wound with fabric from his white flag. Italy put pressure on the wound to stop the bleed. Desperately, he worked in an attempt to save Japan.

"I'm sorry, Itary."

Japan died with his eyes open to the heavens. He was leaned up against a white piano with blood covering the keys and pooled on the seat and at the feet of the piano. Japan's blood was everywhere and even coated his own white clothes.

Italy cried softly, "You shouldn't have died. We're countries! We can't die!"

He closed Japan's eyes and got up and tried to clean himself of Japan's blood. It wouldn't work, the blood just kept spreading and spreading making Italy's silent tears fall faster.

The countries stared at the screen in terror. Everyone shed a few tears other than Feli, Jay, and Yao who were weeping at the sight for different reasons.

"That didn't happen," Kiku stated in horror from seeing his own death. "I'm alive. I can't die." Kiku turned to Jay and Feliciano. "How come I'm still alive?"

Feliciano shook his head and looked Kiku in his eyes. Kiku felt terrible seeing not just a Holographic Italy cry but the real one too.

Jay also looked up, her crying subsided. "It is real. It just happens that someone saved you by putting themselves through hundreds of years of torture."

Kiku's eyes widen. He looked down remorseful. "Feli. He did it, right?" Kiku asked looking at Jay. "He's why I'm alive?"

Jay shook her head. "No. He's the reason why all of you are alive."

"He did what?" Romano yelled.

He turned to his brother, who was still crying. "You did what?" He asked again softer.

"I did what I had to. In there, in that house, we weren't countries. We were human. If I had left without doing anything I would be living a life without all of you."

"Italy! Vhat ist wrong?" Germany asked running into the piano room with Prussia.

"He's gone," Italy muttered. "Japan died."

Prussia scoffed. "Impossible. We can't die. Let me look at him."

He got down next to Japan. Prussia checked his breathing and heart rate. Then after repeating himself a few time he shook his head.

"Vhat is it brüder?"

Prussia turned around to look at Germany in the eye. "He's dead."

"Nein! How?"

"Zis house isn't safe. I don't know how he died but if Japan can die then all of us vill also die soon if ve don't get zhe hell out of here."

Germany nodded and grabbed Italy by the wrist and pulled him out of the piano room. 

"Come on Italy ve need to get zhe others and get out!"

Italy nodded silently and started jogging to keep up with the German brothers.

They headed downstairs towards the entrance. All wondering how to get out while keeping each other safe from the Thing they don't know anything about. Well, other than that it could take out one of their best fighters.

***** So really sad. I tried to not make it sad.

That's a lie I tried to make it sad. Anyway, I would have done the whole thing but I haven't uploaded in a while and I have a few other ideas I'm trying to write at the same time so this was my compromise.

I hope y'all are ok with the lockdown and all that jazz. Just stay healthy.

Love y'all! Bye!!!*****
