((y/n) pov)
10 yrs later, 16 yrs old
Today is the day I become Papà's capital. North Rome. England, Norway, and Romania are here. "Are you alright poppet?" Oliver asks me. "Yeah, just nervous," I gulp. "You'll be alright poppet, you're strong," Ollie comforts me. "Do you think so?" I ask. "Of course! I have known you long enough to know you are very strong," Ollie starts petting my ears. I smile, liking the feeling.
Norway walks into the room, I don't call him by his human name as only people close to him call him by his human name. "It's ready," He calls out. I walk into the room. In the room, is papà,Zio (uncle) Flavio, and Matthew, Romania, Ollie, and Norway. I do as instructed, and they start the spell. As that happens, I fall unconscious in my body, but I see a forest, and people there. "Ciao? Chi Sei?" I ask. "Rome, I think this goes to you," A lady that looks like Ollie tells a man who looks like papà. "You look like uncle Ollie," I point out. "You know him personally?" She seems shocked. My ears point up at this. "Wh-what is this?" Confusion commences upon them, making me confused. I look around and see China. "China? What are you doing here?" I look at him with a quizzical look.
"As I'm also as old as them, I do it too. How is Japan?" He asks me. "Ah, Kuro is doing good. He doesn't seem like it, but all the axis know he misses you," I reply, making him smile a bit. "Really? How is it obvious?" He asks me. "He compares everything to life with you, and he talks about you a lot. He thinks he's being discreet about it, but it's very obvious," I give my explanation. "Do you know how Greece is doing? Or do you not see him?" Probably Ancient Greece asks. "I only see him during meetings, but from what I've heard he's just been cheating on a lot of people," I sheepishly explain. "Seems like him," She sighs. I answer everybody else's questions, and then they all leave and I'm left with Rome, Britannia, and China. "So you are the child my second son loves so much," Rome over me, making me nervous and my ears fall.
"Rome, you're scaring (p/p)!" Britannia scolds him. He rolls his eyes at her. "Where are you from?" He asks me. "Before I lived with papà, I lived in Quebec, Canada, sir," I address him with authority. "French," He almost looks at me with disgust. "I don't like to consider myself French, but yes sir," I reply. "What do you like to consider yourself?" He asks me. "Italian, sir," I look straight at his eyes. He grins, "Good, and you have backbone too. You can hold your ground. Can you manipulate people?" China answers me, "That child... That child is terrible. (p/p) can manipulate better than you. Than all of us." It's my turn to grin. "I like you. I'm going to give you some abilities with this," Rome accepts me. I nod.
I wake up after I get abilities, and I turn into a capital. "Did they-a accept you? Are you-a okay-?" Papà runs up to me. "I saw-a China there..." I realize what happened. Everybody freezes. "CHINA!?" They all shout. I nod, "And he asked-a about Kuro. They say they-a hate each other but-a they don't even realize they still-a have a brotherly love for each other." All of us shake our heads. "Seriously though, they look at each other during meetings too!" Norway makes a point. "Exactly-a!" I shout. We look at each other with a mutual understanding, and nod our heads at each other. Ollie shakes his head at us two. Papà thanks them, and we all talk for a while.
After a while though, we do have to leave because he has to work at his base as the mafia boss. I stay with Zio Flavio while he gets his work done. Zio Seborga didn't come because he doesn't like papà. I don't call Seborga by his name because we don't get along well and we aren't close even though we are technically now related. Talking about the ritual, I don't know much about my new found abilities. All I know is that my senses are now more flexible so I can reduce my hearing to hear like a normal human if I want, and I can shapeshift into a cat. I get distracted though from helping Zio Flavio with his work.
After a few hours, there's a knock at the front door of the base that I hear, but I don't think anybody else heard. "There's a knock-a at the front door-a. Do you want-a me to get it-a?" I ask Zio Flavio. "Ah, sure-a!" Flavio agrees. I run down the stair quicker than I have gone before. Must be one of the new abilities. I look at the eye-hole at the door to see... Zio Seborga!? I unlock the door, and open the door for Zio Seborga. "Zio-a Seborga?" I ask. "Sì. I have-a to talk to Flavio," He says awkwardly. "Ah, come this-a way," I show him the way to Zio Flavio's room. "You sound-a different," He points out. "Sì. We did the-a ritual and I now-a personify North-a Rome starting today-a. We did it-a this morning-a," I explain. "Wait... So we are fully-a related now?" He asks me. "Sì," I confirm. "That's-a amazing!" Zio Seborga exclaims. I smile back at him with my cheshire cat like grin.
We do small talk all the way there. "Zio Flavio, Zio Seborga is-a here to see-a you!" I knock on the door. "Come in!" Flavio approves in his singsong voice. I open the door and he walks in first. "Ciao, fratello(Hello, brother)," Seborga greets. "Ciao! Come Va?(How are you?)," Flavio greets back. "Did you-a see little (y/n)? Well, not so little anymore!" Zio Flavio pinches my cheeks. "Ow! Zio Flavio!" I react. "Ah, spiacente, spiacente(sorry, sorry)," Zio Flavio apologizes. "I know what-a it's like," Seborga shudders at memories as he talks to me. I leave the room so they can talk about whatever they were going to talk about, and I walk to Papà's room to see how he's doing. I knock on the door. "Who is it-a?" I hear Papà's voice through the door. "(y/n)," I call back. "Ah, come-a in!" Papà exclaims.
I open the door and walk in the room to see some of the other countries there, including Russia, America, Ollie, Matthew, Norway, and China are the only people I know in the group. "Ciao?" I greet them, wary of things that might happen. "I doubt she even speaks English! Is it just cues you are giving her?" A depressed looking man who sounds Polish, speaks. 'So he's probably Poland...' I think to myself. I snap out of my trance and ask Papà, "Zio Seborga is here-a with Zio Flavio, and they said-a they had some-a confidential business-a to attend to. Is it alright-a if I stay here?" "Wow Poland, real mature of you, eh!" Matthew laughs. "Oh, hey Canada!" I use his country name to make a point.
"(y/n), introduce yourself if they don't remember you," Papà orders. "Hello, It's a pleasure to meet you all. My human name is (y/n) but please call me North Rome or Rome!" I introduce myself, and some of the countries whisper among themselves, thinking I can't hear them. "Doesn't (p/p) look a little... too inexperienced to actually take care of the country?" "They look weak." "They would never make it in the world like this!" And one that made me most angry, "They could never fight or even probably manipulate someone. They're too soft!" That came from a rich looking lady that has Russia standing beside her, sighing. He tells her I can hear her, but she just rolls her eyes. So that's when my ears prick up, and everybody falls silent, knowing that they've been caught talking sh!t right in my face. "I would shut-a up if I-a were you," I glare at her.
Everybody falls in line after that, and they all negotiate things. I listen in, so subtly manipulating things so they go our way. "Okay and that-" Ollie just pauses all of a sudden and sighs as he realizes what I did. "You literally just so subtly manipulated everything to go your way and I just now realized it after we have already signed the contracts," Ollie looks at me. I just do a Cheshire Cat smile and roll my eyes, "Everyone underestimates me, and they only realize they did when it's too late. Have fun fixing it up!" They all get confused and Ollie has to explain what I did. Oh my smug grin on my face when Ukraine looked at me. So I proved to my dad and everybody that I know how to fit in this world now...
(As this is the last part of North Italy, what character should I do next? Requests are open.)
