Chapter Eight: China and Spain are Hopeful
"If they hid their states from us what else are they hiding?" Germany demanded.
"An alien, a whale, voodoo and a unicorn" Prussia said without missing a beat.
"The unicorn I gave him?" Arthur asked.
"Think so" Gilbert shrugged.
"These... states, are they dangerous Aru?" China asked.
"That depends, they are mostly older kids and young teens so to each other, they wrestle but it's all in good fun. They can't make any decisions to harm us either way." Lithuania piped in.
"They are as dangerous as a bunch of teens can be, but with super strength and very intense hatred toward France and England." Belarus spoke.
"Attendre. Quoi!?" France exclaimed.
"Yeah they kinda want you dead, witch is totally unawesome by the way, but can't because then Alfred would be disappointed" Gilbert butted in.
"Are they dangerous." Ludwig demanded.
"SHUT UP POTATO BASTARD OR-A I"M MAKING THEM DANGEROUS" Southern Italy shouted.
"What do you mean by that fratello?" Northern Italy asked, confused.
"Republic has the knowledge and power to kill, all it-a takes is the right about of money" Lovino muttered only his little brother hearing. The younger italy paled a little and turned his head back to Ludwig.
"How many are there?" Japan asked.
"50 is my guess for America" Greece said tapping at his phone before nesting back in to sleep.
"No, 53 states personified for America, then the republic of Texas, the city of Austin, DC, 5 territories, For canada it's 13. For Mexico it's 31. For micronations it's 9 for Alfred and 3 for Canada. That in total is... 116 in total" Finland explained.
"Ok, who knew OF the existence of these... children" Germany asked, hesitant to use the word children.
Southern Italy
Seborga
Prussia
Finland
Sweden
The rest of the nordics
Belarus
Lithuania
The micronations
Then the entirety of Latin America
They all raised their hands.
"Who personally knows at least a few of these children"
Southern Italy
The micronation
Prussia
Finland
Sweden
Belarus
Lithuania
Brazil
Venezuela
El Salvador
Kept their hands up.
"I knew the republic of Texas? Does that count?" Spain asked.

"You knew of them you git?!" England screamed.
"No, hes much different then when you knew him" Brazil laughed remembering the teen.
Brazil met Texas and Vermont first as they were former countries. Texas for 9 years and Vermont for 14, Texas had more experience and was older since he existed since the 1600ish. Trigger happy southerner and angry northerner where terrible stereotypes.
Texas was a semi calm farmer with a love of music and acted like a weird mix of Alfred, Spain and Mexico. Vermont was a maple syrup lover who is always down for a fight.
Nice kids but they were terrifying when given the chance.
"Ar-are they nice?" Latvia asked nervously.
"Yeah! Aussie lets us come to his concerts at Dallas' restaurant and we get to eat whatever we want! Sometimes Francisco, Leta and Veronica join us!" Sealand said excitedly.
"Luca shows us all his really cool pets! Even if they are a little scary. He took us to desney the last time we went to Florida with Marc, Andriana." Seborga added.
"Alec, Alejandria, Anastasia and Cadence take photos so I can use them as references. They ARE ART" Kugelmugel states with emphasis.
"Nixon is good with computers! He's good enough for me to be friends with him!" Ladonia huffed.
"Max, Martin and Jay know how to beat the heat and share their ice cream and swimming pool, that's good enough for me" Wy commented.
The nations where in shock of how well the tiny nations knew of the states.
"I got a message from Birdie" Prussia stated, "He says meet him at a certain house that's a day drive away... This is totally unawesome" He sighed.
"Vhys that?" Ludwig asked his brother.
"Because there being forced, be prepared for a very awesome velcome" Prussia warned, many others nodding.
"Prussia how do jou know these... states" Germany asked.
"Vest, there all under 17. The only one who will hurt jou is Austin when you wake him up or if it's playful wrestling" Gilbirt signed, "I trained Alferd, I barged into his house to check on him a couple of years after his revolution and found 5 kids at the table eating breakfast and helped babysit them after that"

"Fratello?" Feliciano asked
"I lived with him" Lovino muttered.
"Same with me" Natalia said glaring at the other nations.
"Umm same with me..." Lithuania said hesitantly.
"And you?" England asked Peter.
"I had to talk to America so he would let me into his borders so I could try and meet other up and coming nations! He decided to just ask the states that had micronations and Dean said we could meet Molossia! A couple of months later we met Nevada as long as we didn't tell anyone. Then we met everyone else over the next couple of months. We still don't know all of them but we are working on it." Sealand explained with a bright smile.
"Finland aru?" China asked
"I deliver presents to everyone around the world, I had substitutions for years but I got conformation during the great depression" Finland explained.
"I barged into the house I thought he was in then got knocked out with a tire jack" Denmark sighed rubbing the back of his head.
"I found out f'rm m'wife." Sweden said calmly, although he was screaming internally.
"I sensed magic and ran into a few of the Mexican and American states" Norway said flately
"One of Canada's children sailed to far, got lost and ended up in my territory, I had to call Matthew to come and get him" Iceland explained.
"Brazil?" Spain asked.
"I found out through Diego, he came down to watch the world cup and just let it slip amistad his screaming" The brazilian shrugged.
"I was there... and winning" El Salvador smiled.
"Why didn't you tell any of us?" England demanded.
"The states didn't want to meet you so we never mention them. That's their call not ours" Denmark shrugged, it made sense to all of them.
"That makes sense aru" China concluded, children were children. If they didn't want to meet the nations then they didn't want to meet the nations. Simple as that.
China knew children, he loved children and always volunteers at orphanages. If that girl, Delaware he believed was her name, cared for her father enough to threaten England then there was something else to America.
China thought for a moment, perhaps America was more mature then he shows? To keep eyes on him not on the little slip up that his states have had. China wondered.
"Well if we want to get there soon I think we should leave soon, I will be in the bus." Balerus said standing up grabbing her stuff and headed out.
Nations slowly followed suit.
Soon they all are on the bus with Prussia at the wheel. He followed the gps threw the roads of Oklahoma and soon Texas. Then a phone call took over the speakers.
Prussia accepted the call after yelling at the nations to shut up.
"Hey tio" a southern accent greeted.
"Hey Aussie! How's it going? Everything settled? Anything on fire yet?" Prussia asked rapidly/
"Good, kinda and not yet, but i'm in the garden. I felt you cross the border. How long till you get here?" 'Aussie' asked.
"Just crossed 10 hours at the least" Prussia said earning a laugh from the boy.
"Trekking through the pan handle huh?" That earned a fit of giggles that gave Spain a hopeful smile. "Good luck, there should be a lot of food places on the side of the roads so plenty of places to eat, which I recommend. Texan roads get an isolated feeling to them. So you should really eat something. Now on dat note, gotta eat soon. Stupid state, republic fuck up of a motabilism" Prussia laughed with the republic.
"Go and eat, i'll call when ve get close" Prussia said.
"Si senor, i'm going to get to the churros before Max and Jay eat them all. Buenas noches!"
"Gute Nacht," Prussia said before the boy hung up.
Spain had a smile on his face with eyes filled with memories. He was looking forward to this, but he knew he had to be patient, Texas was texas, being stubborn was in his blood. He would have to be patient to gain his trust all over again. But that was okay, He could wait.

The Eighth Warden
Cast out from his knightly order for using magic, Corec has no idea what lies ahead. Leaving his homeland to make his own way in the world, he finds himself linked to a beautiful woman through a mysterious rune. With otherworldly forces manipulating events behind the scenes, the two must seek help to free themselves from the unknown magic. But when the runes continue affecting others, Corec and his companions—an elven druid, a con man with a hidden past, and a thief who wants to be a bard—must work to discover truths about themselves and the world in which they live. I post the chapters here as I write them. There's also a revised version of each book that's collected and published as an ebook and paperback. That version is compatible with the version posted here—the story itself hasn't changed; it's just gone through additional rounds of editing.
8 822RE: Souls War Apocalyse
When I and every other humans on earth have been summoned to the cursed world of Yvelmore, to serve as a front-line soldier in an impossible war against an invasion of nightmarish creatures, I knew right away that something was going to go wrong. I was right. The war? Hell, we lost it so much all the nations of the world have been destroyed and all the races have disappeared. Me? I was a veteran who survived until the end. Was I strong? Fuck yeah of course I was, except ... it was useless, I died like everybody else. The bad news? When I thought it was finally over, I woke up in the past, the moment I was summoned to the beginning of the war. Come on, seriously? Do I really have to go through all that again? What? And everything restarts every time I die? No... are you fucking kidding me? Right? Genre: Action, Adventure, Medieval Apocalypse, Times Loops, Progression, War & Fantasy, Grimdark, Magic, Horror, LitRPG (but RP). Tone: Despair at the firsts chapters (which makes sense for a story that begins with the end of the world, doesn't it?), and lots of humor and stupid situations after to lighten the tone of the story. (Oh, and the MC is NOT a psychopath, a rapist, a hypocrite, or human garbage, so sorry for those who like that, because I don't like that). Note: Expect this story to contain grammatical errors and occasional random conjugations. I am learning English, and I have made a lot of progress, but I still have some gaps. So if you're allergic to it, don't read this story, you would inevitably be disappointed.

Will his sacrifice make the world a better place, or see it burned to ruin? Let's hope he can unravel the intricacies of his new life, and work out his own issues before fate grinds him to dust ____________________________ Side note here, I added sexual content and traumatizing content tags because once the MC gets into the story things start to get a bit dark.
