No one's pov

In this fiction you don't have to think of Third Reich as a cruel, vicious dictator, but as a normal innocent child who had trouble sleeping: it wasn't surprising for him to wake up in the middle of the night for no reason, sometimes even losing sleep. When that happened he would quietly roam around the mansion or sneak out in the garden and walk there until he felt sleepy again and went back to sleep. One night something interesting happened. He woke up at random as per usual and groaned in annoyance, he felt too lazy to get up yet he didn't have any sleep so he had to entertain himself somehow until he got tired again. He reluctantly got up from the bed and started one of his strolls around the mansion. When he got near his father's office he noticed the lights were still on and he was talking on the phone: who could he be talking with late at that hour? The door was slightly opened but not enough for him to peek so he could only eavesdrop the conversation.

- And now, I left the best news last -

- And what are those? -

- Soon we'll get rid of the Tzar, he'll be having some "family problems" and his own people will go for his head -

- Oh oh, what have you done exactly? -

- Some time ago I got quite an unexpected visit: the Tzar's son himself came knocking at my door, asking for help to overthrow his own father -

- That's amazing! But wait- why would he want to overthrow his own father? -

- I really don't care, what matters is that the Russian Empire will get out of the way -

- ...What if it's all just a play? Are you really that careless to trust your enemy's son so easily? -

- Of course not! At first I thought it was a joke and shut the door to his face, warning him not to bother me again if he didn't want a bullet shot in his head, but when he kept coming back making the same help request I thought he might've been actually serious and I could use him to get rid of his father, as he seemed to hate him as much as us. Of course I didn't help him for free, we're already having our own struggles with the war. He somehow managed to get me the money I asked in exchange for some troops and help to organize the putsch, I had some fun with him and he promised to keep his country out of the war once he'd rise to power -

- ...What kind of fun? Please Reich tell me it's not what I'm thinking, REICH HE'S A FUCKING KID!!! DID YOU SERIOUSLY SLEEP WITH HIM?! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HIM?! -

- He didn't oppose to it, in fact I think he enjoyed it as he keeps coming back for more -

- REICHTANGLE I CAN'T BELIEVE IT, THAT'S TOO MUCH EVEN FOR YOU! YOU RAPED A FUCKING CHILD!!! -

- All I've done I did it for you, I was the first to support you in this war when everyone was against you, especially that traitorous scum of Kingdom of Italy who turned his back on both of us -

- That's not the point, I never thought you would step so low. You've changed, for the worst. What happened to you mein Freund? You were better than this, how did you become so cold and evil? -

- So now you would tell me that you haven't killed millions in cold blood? War changes people, there's nothing you can do about it. We're losing, Austro, and if we lose they're not only going to kill us, but also humiliate us publicly and Gott knows what it will be of our lands, our people -

- We're done talking for now, I'm going to sleep. Goodnight Reichtangle, please take care -

Just like that he hung up the phone. Reichtangle thought for a while, had war really changed him that much? So much that his own best friend, more like brother, got repulsive of his own actions? Reichtangle and Austro-Hungary had always been very close friends since their young years, they thought of themselves more like sibilings than just friends. There's always been a strong bond between them and when one thought the other was making a stupidity he would straight up tell him. Had he done a stupidity? It was too late to turn back anyway, he didn't have a choice: if he turned the Russian's son against him they would still stay in war and that wasn't an option given how much they were struggling, having a country out of the way was definitely useful. His eyes started feeling heavy, he checked the clock and realized it was almost 2am. He put in order some papers scattered on his desk then he left his office and headed for his bedroom, as he did so a pair of small eyes silently watched him leave hidden behind a wall. Once his father was out of view Third Reich came out of his hiding spot exhaling in relief, his father didn't see him. He sneaked into his office and picked up the phone, then he called Austro-Hungary again.

- What is it now? -

- Hallo Onkel, it's me, Drittes Reich -

Austro-Hungary and Reichtangle were so close even Reich had started calling Austro uncle, unlike his older brother Weimar who adressed to him more formally. Reich liked Austro-Hungary more than his own father.

- Reich? What are you doing up at this hour? Wait- did you hear me and your father talking on the phone? -

- Nein, I was just having trouble sleeping and I wanted to call you. It's been a while since you last came here I miss you, I'm glad you picked up the phone -

- Well yeah. You know me and your dad are busy leading the war, lately I wasn't able to visit as often but I promise I'll make up for it, alright? I'll bring you your favorite cookies the next time I'll visit -

'Uncle and nephew' kept talking at the phone for about an hour, then they finally hung up. Reich missed Austro, he knew he couldn't visit because of the war but he wanted to at least hear his voice again and talk with him, especially after he and his father had argued as he was hoping to cheer him up a little bit. A yawn came out of his mouth, he started feeling sleepy again. He left his father's office and went back to his room, tucking himself into bed. He didn't quite understand what their conversation was about, he didn't know what rape meant but that wasn't the right moment for him to know. That information would come back useful in the future...
