This Is War- a Hetalia RP -{OFFICIALLY ENDED}-

[Zelda Prouvaire]

(No, no, Orange, it's fine! I just started school as well, things will probably get busy for me, too! You don't have to apologize! I'm just glad you can get on at all!)

[poptart_kaii]

(I go to school tomorrow. ._.)

(I don't remember either, but they could, if you want. I'm fine with whatever ^.^)

Poland looked up and nearly jumped out of his chair when he saw Latvia sitting across the table from him. He was more jump than usual these days, and the fact that he often found himself lost in thought didn't help with that much. He had been thinking about Lithuania a lot- he really missed him. The brunette had always been much better than him at talking to people and explaining his thoughts, and Poland used to rely on that, since he himself usually got nervous around people he didn't know well. He also missed Lithuanian as his friend. He had been one of the few people that bothered to get to know Poland, and tolerated his odd quirks too. He snapped himself out of his thoughts again and gave the boy across the table from him a weak smile, resting his chin on his hand as he propped his elbow up on the table. "It was alright. Nothing new really. My boss is just worried, but we all are, right?" he replied with a shrug, but was unable to contain a dejected sigh. He didn't mention Russia's threats or how likely an invasion was- he didn't want to scare Latvia too much.

Addison slowed her pace a little so that it matched her brother's, walking side by side with him. "When the war is over? I don't know Mattie. This war... it reminds me of World War II. Remember that one? Lots of needless overtaking of helpless countries and far too much bloodshed without a valid reason behind it. When this is over, I think it will take a while for all the nations to recover from the destruction and loss. It always does. I'm more concerned with what state the world will be in, you know? I mean, with the way things are going right now, it looks like Papa and Russia are each going to own large portions of the Earth. It's like the colonization days all over again, and at least as brutal. With that in mind, if the countries don't rebel for their freedom, then it's likely that eventually it will come down to Papa fighting Russia for... world domination. It sounds kinda silly doesn't it, like something out of a story?" she mused with a sigh, looking rather tired. War was stressful and she hated the pressure of it. The feeling that she needed to protect everyone she loved was rather overbearing and it hurt to know that Mattie or Aussie could get hurt or worse during this chaos. But then again, no one really liked war, did they?

Fiji sat in the bunker for who knows how long, just thinking about the outcoming events. What if this entire war turned out to be a World War III? If that was the case, many would die, and after the war it would just be terrible. Large Wars meant falling into debt for many countries, to lower food supplies, to send their entire nations into downward spirals. It only harmed them, and millions of others. Fiji really wanted to know how much more of this arguing and fihting that this planet could take before it decided to give up them. She looked down at her feet, thinking of her people now. How much more could they take of it? Wars only brought sadness and hardships among the humans, if they were won by their country, then it would pride and rejoyce, but those feelings of loss would never escape them. To experience something like that firsthand was truely something awful, and cruel. Fiji wished she could go up against Russia, but thinking about it now, she knew the odds were against her. She was one of the smallest nations, to fight Russia would really be suicide. But after all she had said, could she back out without looking lik a total coward to the other ountries? To her people? Honestly, Fiji wasn't sure what she should do after this moment of silence. What would become of her familia, Spain, and Costa Rica? What would become of them after the war? Fiji sighed, getting to her feet. Grunting in pain, she walked on, heading towards the battle-field.

(Sure, yeah, the first invasion of the battle! Let's get the ball rolling! Maybe Antarctica and Fiji could join them...Nighttail, Ling-Yao, you guys okay with that?)

"Yeah...I've been pretty worried lately...especially about Russia. Was he there?" Latvia asked, even though he wasn't sure if he really wanted to know. He could tell that Poland was keeping something from him. There was no way he could come home from a meeting and appear so nonchalant--stressed, certainly, but still not seeming all too concerned about their current state. As much as he dreaded any answer Poland would give him, Latvia couldn't help but decide to question him for more details for what exactly had been said at the meeting. Yes, he was younger in physical age than the rest of the countries, but he knew it was imperative that he knew just as much information as they did, for the safety of himself and more importantly, his people. "Look, Poland...I really need to you to tell me what happened during the meeting. I...I don't want to be in the dark on this. It will probably scare me, but I need to know. It's really important, Poland, for my entire country. So...please. Don't hide anything from me."

While meditating, Kaiiyen seemed to step over a boundary. She felt like she was part of the earth, she could feel it breathe beneath her, sleeping peacefully. She was everything, she was nothing. Everywhere, and nowhere. In the sky, in the ground. Many colours, yet none at all. Through all of this happening, on the outside she looked like an ordinary girl meditating. But in the mind, in the very essence of her being, she was sailing through the seas, flying through the sky, walking jungle paths, all at once.

Poland sighed and shut his eyes for a moment, trying to collect his thoughts. "You're totally right. Okay, no, Russia wasn't at the meeting. Not today at least. Probably has more important plans elsewhere." he started with a frown, staring off to the side for a moment before refocusing on what he was supposed to be telling Latvia, about the meeting he had just come home from. "But... he has been threatening an invasion of the remaining ex-Baltic nations, you and Estonia, as well as my country. He's been making a lot of threats, actually, lately and honestly, it makes me nervous. I don't know if there's any hope if Russia does decide to invade either of us. He has already taken over so many other countries." Before he could say anything else about his own fears that could worry Latvia further, he shut his mouth. Poland crossed his arms on the table and rested his chin on them with a deep frown, looking more than a little worried himself.

(Alright, sounds good ^.^)

[pappuppy]

((Sure thing!))

Latvia swallowed and nodded, suppressing a shudder, recalling the last time Russia had been gent on overtaking his country. His people had put up a fight, but in the end they had been under Russia's will just as the other Baltics. Poland was right; if Russia wanted their countries for his empire, he would have them in the end.
"O-Okay...I know what you mean...and I agree with you. And I'm nervous, too, Poland. You're not the only one. I guess we should prepare for...this, right? I mean, we can't just let him get us without fighting back. We can get our armies ready in our own countries, but what can we do for ourselves? Like, what if they find your house?" Latvia bombarded Poland with questions, wanting to be ready when the inevitable occurred.
(Good...can we start that now? Oh, and Lenna, I'll post for Canada on my next post, okay?)
