The next day, America was driving his friends to the Mansion.

"Man.... this is really far from the city... we're sure Ames not leadin us to his murder den?" Australia said. The group chuckled. Suddenly, the road stopped at a dead end, and America parked off to the side.

"Ok, we're almost there," America said.

"...we are? We're standing in front of the thickest forest I've ever seen," Canada said. America smiled, his eyes glowing white. His friends knew that America had magic, but they never really saw him use it in the city, especially since those with magic were heavily hunted (not by the government, mostly just by petty b*tches).

America pushed his hands out, and suddenly, a path cleared. They got back in the car, and after a while of driving, they got to the mansion.

"Ok guys, be warned, the states have been here for years without having to deal with outsiders. Just be nice and go easy on them," America said.

"Yeah... wait... are all these people related to your mother?" France asked.

"No... the people in this house were primarily abandoned children, destitute wanderers, and overall unfortunate souls... somehow, they all ended up here, and were gifted with magic," America said.

"Interesting...," New Zealand said.

"I only let you five know about this place because I trust all of you, so don't make me regret it," America said, before opening the front door. They walked into the empty foyer.

"Where are they?" Canada asked. America looked around, before chuckling.

"Hello Rhode, where is everyone?" America asked, kneeling down and letting Rhode onto the palm of his hand.

"They're in the ballroom! I was just getting Roger," Rhode shouted (he's tiny now, so it takes more effort for him to be heard). Suddenly, a small mouse scurried up Americas leg and joined Rhode on Americas palm.

"Erm... so... why is there a mouse?" Britain asked.

"I think there might be more around here, Tennessee likes playing by the window so who knows how many mice he's lured in!" Rhode exclaimed. Britain and France seemed perturbed by this. America rolled his eyes.

"If we see any more of Rogers brethren Tennessee will be sure to lure them away from us," America said. He took Roger in his other hand, and tossed Rhode up into the air. Rhode returned to his normal size, and landed on his feet. He took Roger, and motioned for the guests to follow him.

"This way, Gentlemen, the others are very excited to meet all of you," Rhode said. As they walked, France was whispering questions to Britain.

"You've been here before, are the states nice?" France asked.

"They are a friendly bunch... a bit different than the people in the city, but nice nonetheless," Britain said.

"I just hope we make it out alive," Australia joked.

"You should," Ohio said, popping out of nowhere.

"Ah! God, you scared me!" Australia exclaimed.

"I have a tendency to do that," Ohio said. The guests glanced at each other, but when they looked back at Ohio he seemingly wasn't there.

"Ohio, make sure the others know we're coming," America said, as if he was still in the room. In fact he was, but the guests couldn't quite figure out where he was. They got to the ballroom, and walked in to see the states just vibin.

"Ayyyyyyyyyyyy Ames here!!! And he brought a buncha white dudeeeesssss!!!!!" Arizona exclaimed.

"That is a distinction without a difference, regardless of color they are still five new dudes in our house," New York said.

"Oh I can't call someone WHITE anymore??? Sjws man," Arizona said, shaking his head. America sighed.

"Anyway... everyone! these are my friends New Zealand, Canada, Australia, and France... y'all already know Britain," America said.

"Hello! We'll take your coats," Minnesota said, duplicating. They took their coats, and put it on a nearby coatrack while Pennsylvania was offering the guests drinks. She was holding about twenty drinks in the air with her telekinesis, and some various liquor options in case they wanted it spiked.

"Ah, It's a bit warm," Australia said, but suddenly ice appeared in his drink. He looked over and saw Alaska nod at him. Suddenly, there was confetti.

"Hi!!!" Missouri exclaimed. They went on socializing and partying, but America was slightly concerned.

"New York? Where's New Jersey?" America asked. New York sighed.

"He's been missing for a while now... and we did a count of all of the furniture in the house, he doesn't seem to be hiding as furniture... unless he is and we miscounted...," New York said. America hummed in thought.

"That's odd... I hope he's alright...," America said.

"Yeah... Louis was even thinking about trying to connect to the ghost realm to find him... I hope we don't get to that point," New York said. America nodded, but suddenly noticed something.

"Not to undermine the whole 'New Jersey' situation but that is a beautiful necklace! Where'd you get it?" America asked. New York smiled, slightly blushing.

"Oh... just a gift from someone...," New York said. America smiled.

"Who?" America asked, curious as to why New York was blushing.

"Oh... um... I'm not sure... my secret admirer," New York said. America laughed.

"Aww that's so cute!! Who do you think it is?" America asked. New York shrugged.

"I'm not sure... but he always leaves me these notes," New York said, taking a few out. America smiled at them, but then noticed something.

"This one... it's handwriting is a bit different, don't you think?" America asked. New York compared the first note to the latest one, and realized he was right.

"And hold on... this handwriting is familiar... Delaware! Can you just write your name on this?" America asked, taking a small notebook and pen out of his pocket. Delaware walked over to them and wrote his name on the notebook. They compared the handwriting to the first letter...

"Delaware... you left the notes?" New York asked.

"Don't get the wrong idea, New Jersey had me write them for him... at least, he did before he disappeared," Delaware said.

"But he's still leaving these notes! Who's writing them now?" New York exclaimed.

"I assume it's him... I mean, nobody knows where he is so it's not like he's asking any favors... let's find his handwriting and see if it lines up!" America said. And so, they decided to go through New Jersey's room, which looked almost like a prop storage area that is also livable.

"Look! A To-do list from years ago that he probably never looked at after he wrote it!" Delaware said. They compared that to the most recent note...

A 100% match.

"New Jersey?! Dammit, that means he was just humoring me this whole time?! Where the hell is he though? Why is he hiding?" New York exclaimed.

Suddenly, they heard a scream. They rushed back to the ballroom, but were relieved to see Massachusetts on fire.

"Don't worry guys, I'm chill," Massachusetts said, putting himself out. The guests, realizing he was ok, sighed a breath of relief and laughed it off with the rest of the states.

"Your friends are amazing, I'm surprised you hadn't invited us sooner!" Canada exclaimed.

"We'd love to have y'all over more often! Lord knows it's nice to have some fresh faces 'round here!" Texas exclaimed. Florida just made a happy lil gator noise and hugged his new bestie Australia.

But off in the distance, someone watched through a window.

"More magical beings...? We can't have that...,"
