The teacher was cut off mid sentence at the knocking of the classroom door. A figure peeked their head in, the familiar golden halo made everyone straighten their backbones stiff.
EU scanned the room very quickly, his eyes landed on America who was staring at Russia while he was taking notes. "Your highness you've been summoned to the palace," EU finally spoke.
The class gazes moved over to America. The prince peeled his eyes off his guard then stood up and made his way to EU.
The two of them walked down the long empty hallway together, their footsteps echoed in an orderly manner like a metronome.
"UN mentioned to me that he had a god helping him but I never knew it was you," the prince spoke first. EU glanced at him by the corner of his eyes, "I fell from divinity already so I'm not technically a god anymore."
America smiled, it wasn't mocking but rather pensive, "it's still quite amazing you were once a god."
EU was quiet for awhile, he didn't know how to respond to that statement. After a long moment of silence EU spoke with a solemn expression, "America, if you had to choice to be immortal would you take it?"
Immortality...
It was something little kids would agree to in a heartbeat, after all who wouldn't want to live forever?
But it also becomes your shackle as you watch everyone walk away while you're frozen in time, incapable of taking any steps forward.
A clock with no hands.
Eventually you lose yourself, the original you should've been dead long ago. Which make belief person are you playing this time?
"No I wouldn't take it, but I do hope to at least be able to choose how I die."
EU couldn't see America's expression right now but his tone seemed melancholy.
Noticing they were already at the gate where the carriage parked to pick up America, EU halted in his steps. "Take care," he waved the prince off.
As the god watched the golden adorned carriage roll away from his view, he craned his head upwards to watch the clouds shift to give him a clear view of the sun.
The blazing magnificent sun.
Get too close and you'll burn.
A man adorned in a breathtaking white suit walked amongst the clouds to the reports area where he had been summoned."EU, there have been frequent prayers to the star god in this area of Europe, you should really take care of it, they're flooding headquarters with prayers."
EU's wings fluttered slightly, "I'll take care of it now," he turned to leave with the flip of his sleeve.
Everyone loved EU, he was the model god, he does his job correctly and doesn't have an inflated ego like most of the other gods. The only flaw he had was that he was a bit stiff, but it was given considering he doesn't spend most of his time studying human behaviour.
