SMAWP

What kind of name is that?

I heard the name of our destination again and that's my first thought.

When we arrived after all the hardships at the sea, I pushed the boat to where near the place they could step on and locked the boat on the roots of the trees. I rested myself on it. I sighed deeply.

Ah, I forgot to tell you that Third Reich hasn't woken up yet. Right now, I can hear them figuring out how to make him breathe.

I do worry for him. He may be not used to the sea as I do and he was in the part of the sea that has great pressure. I wanted to help, but considering how I look right now, I cannot go to them. I haven't gone back to normal.

I look at my hands and put them together on my chest. I closed my eyes for--

"Mon amour!"

"AAAHHH!"

The boat shook when I heard the call. I shouted loud in surprise. France chuckled behind me.

"We're thinking you could help us wake up Reich!"

"No, no. I can't. Please go away for a moment." I looked down.

There are seconds of silence.

"You did great back there, mon amour."

"Look what it cost me! Look at me now!" I spread my arms wide and yelled that. "And look! My dress is ruined!" I dropped my hands on the water and made a splash. "I'm ruined! I-I look like a monster! L-Look at my pointy ears- agh! What happened to me?! When will I go back to the real me?!" My voice cracked again and my sight became blurry.

I'm gonna cry again b-because why not?! My husband is looking down at me, seeing me like this! W-With gills- what else can you do to make me worse! Huh, sea?!

"You don't look bad. Look at me."

"I-I don't want to, honey."

"Please, mon amour." Then, I felt him brushing my hair with his hand.

I wiped my tears first, breathed to calm me down a little, and looked up to him. My lips were shivering and tears won't stop forming in my eyes. I quickly looked away.

"You're still you! Nothing changed!" He sounded cheerful. "You still have the flag of the country I love the most!" The boat shook behind me. "You're amazing! With that ability, you can successfully conquer deep seas!"

I raised both of my hands. "Pull me up... please."

"Don't you want me to go down there-"

"NO, FOR GOD'S SAKE! NO! Just pull me."

As I got out of the waters and sat down on the boat, I watched my legs magically go back. My dress is so wet too.

I went with France to where the others are. The countries surround the lying body of the Third Reich. Japan does the chest compression and checks his breathing. She repeats what she did while Italy is whining like a kid that is going to lose his father.

Third Reich got drowned. It means water, I thought.

I knelt beside the man. "Excuse me. Please let me try." I asked kindly.

I put my hand two inches above his lips. I closed my eyes again and breathes. What I'm going to do here is make the water flow out. Focus. Don't make the situation worse.

I did some finger gestures that I think might help me to make it possible.

It took a minute. Everybody went silent as they watch droplets of water going out from the Third Reich's mouth.
