You look around the streets.
Gdańsk really is beautiful.
Poland and you walk together. He points up to the churches that were located here. Pulled you by the shining Amber stands. He takes you across a bridge as well.
The water had small waves on it. Seagulls laughed.
After walking around for a long time, the day was already over.
"I want to show you one more place before we go home." Poland says.
"What are you planning on doing?" Iceland asks, his gaze not frightened and his voice reproachful.
We were walking through the woods, the moon shined and lit our path.
"Finding others, so we can feed them to the beast." I answered.
"How is THAT going to reassure our survival?" He continuous to ask.
"I believe that once it's full it leaves us." I say, starting to get impatient.
"How do you want to know?" He asks.
"Listen." I grab him by the throat.
"Do you think I don't know what I'm doing?" I hiss.
Icelands eyes glare up at me in silent rage.
He's tough and he knows it. We'll see how long he lasts.
Vietnam and India were talking about the kidnapper.
I just sigh and throw a glance at Italy once and a while.
"Lithuania." I hear someone say my name. "Do you know what happened to Estonia and Latvia?"
I shake my head. "No."
"I woke up in the middle of the night and they were gone."
The cold wind made me shiver.
Malaysia, the one who had spoken to me also shivered. I looked at her, then I walk closer to her. We both huddle together.
I wonder what will happen to all of us. We'll see if we even make it to the next day.
You open your eyes. Salty sea wind and the smell of waffles wavered through the air.
People walked through the streets. Poland started walking away and gave you a nod, signalizing you should follow him.
You trot up to him and turn to the left.
The orange sun was sinking in the sea, sending orange and yellow sparkles over the water. Pine trees loomed over you. There was sand underneath your shoes.
"Isn't this the place we went to? Before the Netherlands had found us?" You ask.
Poland nods.
You walk down to the beach. Small waves broke at your feet. Here were also seagulls, laughing and diving into the dark waters.
A small white stone gets washed ashore. You pick it up.
"Amber." Poland murmurs.
You compare it to the stone Poland had given you. It sparkled fiery red next to the glowing white one.
"Here." You say, giving Poland the stone.
"Dziękuję." He smiles examining it, then looking back to you.
You stay like that for a long time. That's when you recognize his eyes. They were reddish, and around his pupil was a amber like glowing shine.
"Twarz twoja jest prześliczna." He murmurs.
"I like your eyes." You say, narrowing yours to look at them better.
Poland smiles.
Then he leans in and pulls you closer to him.
Suddenly Romania stands behind Poland and puts his hand on his shoulder.
His eyes were dull and cold, normally they were warm and friendly or mischevious and even a little reproachful.
Rarely he looked like this.
He stared Poland dead in the eyes.
Poland stared back.
What are they doing? What just happened?
Then Poland looks over to Russia and Belarus.
Russia also stared at Poland while Belarus eyes were rested on you, until she noticed you were looking at her and she looked away.
Poland looks back at Romania. His hands slowly cupping into fists, while Romanias grip and Polands shoulder got tighter.
"Okay that was great." Norway says, shoving himself between the two.
"We should definitely do this again sometime, but obviously some of us are starting to get hungry. Let's go home now." He continues.
Romania and Poland continue to stare at each other, but start stepping away.
"Real smooth." UK grins, putting her arm around Norways shoulder.
"Sure." He mumbles keeping his gaze on Poland.
"Are you okay?" You ask Poland concerned, putting your arm on Polands shoulder.
He jumps, because of how tense he was, but after he calms down he smiles.
"Tak kochanie. Wszystko w porządku."
Iceland's screams ebbed.
Whimpers from behind me started too.
I let my finger run across my bruised face.
Iceland had been stronger than I expected.
I press down on it more.
Pain soared through my head, making my skull hum.
The beast pulled away, leaving the black clouded corpse to evaporate, like all of them did.
I turned around to our new member. Finland glared up to me, just as Iceland had.
I shake my head.
These Countries don't learn.
I sigh while walking up to the house.
Poland stood next to me, very closely.
"What was that about?" You whisper.
He looks at you in a questioning way.
"You and Romania, normally none of you act like this." You continue to pressure him.
He shrugs.
"Nothing important." He murmurs.
Obviously it was important!
But you were too tired for discussions anymore.
You sit down on the couch and sigh. Poland sits down next to you and puts his arm around your shoulder. You close your eyes and breathe in his scent.
He smelled like brown sugar, waffles, mushrooms and sea salt.
You check your surroundings. Cold woods, trees looming high above your head and birds calling out to you.
Something sparkled in the high grass.
You look at it.
A necklace.
Voices emerge from the bushes. You saw them step out.
India, Vietnam, Lithuania, Italy, Philippines. All your friends were here.
Sweden, just like you had, stumbles across the necklace.
"Iceland!" Sweden shouted. She picks it up and shows it to India.
"This is Icelands! He must be close." She says hopefully.
"That also means we're close to him. And it's still night. That means we have to be on a watch out."
You wanted to follow them, but suddenly you hear screams from behind you.
There was a pale picture of Iceland laying on the floor. There was a creature looming over him, slitting his eyes and neck.
You turn around to see if the others had seen it too, but they continued to walk away.
They don't know.
They don't know Icelands dead.
"Obudź się." Someone nudged you awake. You saw Poland handing you a plate.
You take it and some silverware.
Just when you started eating you realized how hungry you had been.
"We're visiting Germany next." Germany says.
"Who put you in charge?" UK asks, crossing her arms.
"I did." He shrugs.
"What do you say?" He asks.
"Awesome."
Thank you to...
