"How did he know?" America asked looking at Russia. Russia lightly shrugged and shook his head
"I don't know, America..." he sighed.

Maine
Maryland
Michigan

New York

And Rhode Island.

America sighed while holding AVI and Hawaii in her arms.

She then paused.

"Who knew the plan?"

"Well my siblings, you, and Germany. Or East and West."

"Who was Reich's favorite child?"

Russia paused

"...East..."

America grabbed her phone looking up at Russia

"Call everyone immediately. We're gonna try to force East and West back into one unified Germany."

"How many more states do we need to get?"

"31." America quickly told Russia. He was very much surprised America could remember their names and middle names without fucking anything up.

"The list of missing states was
Alabama
Arizona
California
Colorado
Delaware
Georgia
Illinois
Iowa
Kentucky
Louisiana
Massachusetts
Minnesota
Missouri
Nebraska

Vermont
Virginia
Washington
West Virginia
Wisconsin
And Wyoming." America later in added looking up at Russia with a light smile

"How."
"That's my secret."
"Huh."

America quickly snapped her fingers, causing her kids to pay attention to her.
They were just kidnapped and nearly killed off they'd listen to their mother.

"Look, guys we're taking you to France's house."

"What???" Maryland, being one of the oldest, was very concerned "why what happened?"

"We just need to get you guys away from this and France is a good-"

"Mom, no." Connecticut snapped

"New Zealand would be a better choice." Pennsylvania then added

America paused and sighed, nodding a bit "I will call your aunt instead then."

The states smiled, a few nodding. She kneeled down, letting the stares surround her in a hug

"I promise to never try leaving the Union again." Mississippi muttered

"I hope so." She sighed lightly, finally breaking the hug.

America and Belarus were at Germanys house in front of the two germans.
East and West.

"West you wouldn't lie to me would you?" America asked first to West

West smiled lightly "I would never lie to you Ms." He chirped a bit

America smiled back "did East tell Reich anything about our plan?"

West suddenly froze to the question. Eying East from the side.

America quickly caught on to it, looking at Belarus with a light nod
"I'm getting some water I'll be back." America slipped away to hide behind the wall and listen in taking out her phone to record.

Belarus looked up at east

"Well did you tell him?"

"No no I didn't." East quickly said.

"Now now, East. Would you lie to me? I let you sleep in my room when nobody else wanted you to. My father took you in because of me. I'm the one who let you live in our home. A change of my mind and my father would've willingly kicked you out and you lie to me?"

East quickly froze at the others words.
Belarus stared into the depths of East eyes, like sharpened daggers pushing into East's heart.

"Did you tell Reich our plan?"

Earth's frozen form slowly melted into a nod of fear. Belarus sat back.

"Did you get it?"

America stepped out from the wall and nodded "mhm."

East and West's faces slipped into panic real quick.

"W-wait what???" West quickly said, grabbing onto East
East was panicking and standing up to take America's phone before it happened.

Suddenly the two in their panicked states had quickly become just a part of one's mind. Germany had fallen to the ground, rubbing his head lightly.

"Bingo." America smiled lightly at the positive response she was striving to get.

"Germany, we have some news for you."
