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?
"Yeah, it does....I wish this was all just a story, to be honest, Addy," Canada admitted softly, looking intently at the ground in front of him. He knew his sister was right, that things were most likely going to get worse as power struggles continued. If they could just stop it, though, before the most impact happened, if they could just win the upcoming battle...then they might just have the slimmest of a chance to beat them. Of course, the world would be in ruins no matter who won, but the countries have worked together in repairing and getting back on their feet before, he had no doubt that they could do it again. "But, this battle should end it, right? For better or for worse."
