《Secrets of the State》Ew

"Arthur" Although not loud it cut threw the noise like a knife through melted butter.
"Yes?" Arthur inquired.
"Please explain to me why MY artifacts were in your possession?" Austin questioned crossing the room as the states cleared and quickly made their way to their seats.
They knew very well if anything were to happen it was much better to have liability.
"If I remember correctly it was from spai-" "TAKE A FUCKING GUESS ON WHO IT BELONGES TO ENGLAND"
Austin rarely lost control of his emotions, Most didn't even realize he could! Others didn't even know he had emotions
"You busted my lock and didn't think I would notice?!" Austin held the voice of a general, "You're delusional!" Austin laughed at his own words.
"Aus?" Dean asked, he had taken refuge under the table. "You're burning the tile" His voice was smaller but it snapped Austin out of it. Austin physically seemed to cool down, his body was still tense but the floor wasn't at threat of being set on fire.
Austin's gaze shifted from Dean to Arthur again.
A swift movement sent Arthur flying.
Austin grabbed Arthur's coller and landing a punch right on Arthur's face and he slammed back first into the stone wall before falling to the floor.
"FUCK YOU" where Austin's parting words before he turned on his heel and threw open a side door and dissappeared.
"I didn't even know Austin COULD yell," Arizona muttered staring at the door as Ava nodded a long.
"Austin lost his hospitality! The world is doomed!!" Max yelled suddenly before diving under the table.
"Max stop overreacting, just because Austin is mad doesn't mean doesn't mean the world is ending" Alma sighed grabbing the new mexican by his foot and dragging him out.
Quebec turned to England with a puzzled look, "One question eyebrows" "Don't call me that" "What the hell did you do to piss off Austin?" There was a pause in all conversation. "He wasn't event mad at the mystery man when he dove into a freezing lake to escape during ww2"

"Or when he had to stay in Canada afterward with heavy frostbite" Hunter pitched in.
"Or when he had to deal with everyone during the great depression" Calvin muttered.
"The cold war," Miriam piped up.
"Did lose it thought" Oliver said quietly.
"He lost it due to stress not people"
"Oh yeah," Oliver said quietly.
"Threw my Independence he never got upset," Diego said crossing his arms, he was rather curious on what had caused the boy to react in such a way.
"Nor does he express anything but amusement when my experience backfire on him" Madison defended, he'd always laugh when something went wrong.
"I never remember him being anything but cheerful when he traveled to help with trading" Belgium said thinking about all the times she saw the then nine year old. Govert nodded agreeing with the blonde.
"I restate my question," Marc said turning in his chair to look at eyebrows, What the hell did you do to piss off Austin?"
Arthur got up dusting himself before speaking, "Simply tried to return something that wasn't his," Arthur huffed.
"But Aussie door always locked" Benjamin whispered to Samoa. Samoa frowned at that and whipped over to stare at Arthur.
"How did you get into his room, it's always locked," Samoa yelled standing up.
"YOU BROKE INTO HIS ROOM DIDN'T YOU" Sage's voice cut through the air like a gunshot.
A few flitched at the power behind her voice although everyone soon turned to see Fritz had slammed his fist into Arthur's stomach.
"FREDERICK DAVID JONES!" Jackson easily grabbed Frederick before he could blow another punch on the already down englishman. Jackson held Fritz in the air before turning to the other states and nations.
"All of you to your rooms and do not leave them until I say so, got it!"
"Yes sir!" With that the states, provinces and many of the nations ran off.

Elsewhere, Austin paced back and forth in the chilly night. It was snowing but Austin had been threw the icy russian winters in both world wars. The slow and light snowfall was nothing compared to the Colorado mountains and frigged winters he went threw back during his nation's time.
He paced back and forth and repeated that motion until he heard his name being called.
"Austin!" Alfred called running over to the pacing figure. The texian in question looked up when his name was called.
"Thank freedom I found you, it's sub 0 Baby Blue," Alfred sighed slowing to a jog, "Come on sweets, let's get ya back inside." Alfred said reaching his hand out for Austin to take. He knew better than to pressure Austin into anything.
Austin shook his head, "To many..." Austin voice was barely audible over whistle of the winds. Alfred knew what he meant by those simple words, "Hey, why don't you just stay in your room and I'll get you a snack and you can just camp out there until you feel better." Alfred suggested, "Or you can bunker down in my room and stay there for a while. Does that sound good?" A small nod it all he needed to throw an arm around Austin's shoulders and guide him back to the house.
"Let's warm you up you're freezing" Alfred lead him back inside from the back door and sent him straight to Alfred's room. Alfred went to make something for Austin to eat.
Austin steadily climbed the stairs his hand pressed against the wall to keep him stable. Three more flights and he would be on the floor where the adults slept.
He was a little disoriented from the cold it made his head spin as his body fought back the cold and worked to be warmer.
"Well well well" Arthur growled.
"Que?" Austin glared at him from behind his hair. It had fallen out of his pony tail and fell into his face.
"I see you finally have returned, your little stunt shouldn't go unpunished"
Austin made a noise of confusion, he was still hunched over and gripping the railing of the stairs ready to make another dizzying climb.
"Buzz off, paperwork and my bed are calling" Austin muttered turning to continue up the stairs.
"No, I want an explanation," Arthur growled.
"You don't need my medical history nor my reasons, I punched you in the gut the first time I met you and your wondering where this is comin' from. I've always been like dis" Austin muttered climbing up the stairs
Arthur came for him but Nevada grabbed him before he could.
"Cover your eyes!" Austin shut his eyes and turned away as the bright light filled the otherwise empty hall.
"Welp! He ruined it for everyone!" Nevada sighed letting Arthur fall to the floor. Nevada stood at 5'10 and looked roughly 17. Magic once again shifting his body to be stronger. Not a rare occurrence for the states.
"Yeah, sorry," Austin muttered.
"He doesn't like you, don't worry about it, I'll tell dad go to bed or do you paperwork," Dean advised and Austin went back up the stairs disappearing around the corner to go up the next set.
Dean pulled out fit phone a called Alfred.
"Hey pops, I had to wipe Arthur's memory of us... yeah I know dad. He went after Aust. Ok, ok, I will. I'll tell them. Alright."
Dean put away his phone and looked at Arthur.
"Ew."
