ALRIGHT, before we start the book i just want to clarify a few things.

1: i was reading a book about exploration, when i realize Spain/Spanish Empire, would probably be the one to find America first... Soo heh, let's just preten- *gets slapped* Pocahontas messed me up. Anyways I'll do some adjustments. Some examples; Spanish empire found the lower part of America/South America, while Britain found the northern part.

2: I'm not uploading so much cuz I'm working on another book, and animations for YouTube. So expect slow updates. WHICH you guys and gals should go check it out! 'No stress day!' (We all hope for a day like this for us.)

And that's it! On with the book...

"Zuania, what did I say about wondering off like that?"

"I'm sorry. I just heard a noise- i promise I won't do it again!"

"No, i can't have you getting hurt."

...

France's POV

"Oh yeah? Then i bet i can race you to that tree!" Spanish Empire yelled as he took his head start. "What tree!? We're in a forest you moron!" The captain said as he stretched his arms to show the surroundings. He waited a few seconds as he watched the Spaniard running in the distance. "Ugh but if I win that means I'm better than you!"

Both of them have been at it. Betting which one was better. The Brit often stopped to see the plants that were growing near us. Writing it down in his book.

It got darker and darker. He only noticed when he saw another plant, But to dark to properly see it. "Hey, we should probably settle here for the night." He said as he closed his book. I was already unpacking a little. The two boys were too far for us to tell them we were stopping.

So i volunteered. "I'll go let them know. watch the stuff." I said as i went towards them.

Britain's POV

I watched as she went in to the woods.

*Crack*

I turned my head to the direction the noise came from. To see nothing.
I stared for a while before I brushed it off as a animal. All of us haven't eaten, so i decided to make something. "But i need to kill an animal first..." I said to myself. Or so i thought. I heard more movement in the same area i was suspicious about.

Then, a dead rabbit was thrown out of the bush. I backed up a little. There was two bright lights starring back at me. I grabbed Spanish Empire's sword, being the only weapon closest to me. Pointing the Sharp side of it towards the bushes.

"Who's ever there, come out with your hand up!"

A boy.

A young boy came out of the bushes in to the night's light. He had messy long but still short hair, with red stripes going across his face. His left eye was blue, While his right eye was red. I lowered the sword slowly without knowing.

I didn't know how long we were looking at each other. By his clothing i could tell he was a native to this land.

"Hey Bretaña Guess what!? (Britain)" I turned my head to the voice I heard. In the corner of my eye i saw the boy run away.

"Wait!" I tried to stop him but it was no use. The child already disappeared into the forest. "Wait? Wait for what?" The Spaniard said as he moved the branches that were in the way. "What- oh! Nothing!" I said try not to sound suspicious, but totally failed. Luckily no one minded.

"You'll never believe it! I beat this burro in a race! (Donkey)" he said proudly while the captain just gave death glares. "You seriously have to rub it in." "Of course! I'd expect you out of all people to be somewhat good at running." As Spanish Empire said that, the pirate gasped sarcastically. "Is it because I'm a pirate? That i should know how to run fast?"

"What- no! That not what I meant!"
They continue to bicker at each other again. France then noticed the dead animal by me. "When did you get that?" She said leaning down to my level. I was busy inspecting the random appearance that just happened without hearing her. While waiting, she realized i wasn't going to respond. "Hello? ... Hello?!"
"Oh! Sorry, yes?" She stared at me with a disapproving face. "Well what i sayed was where did you get the dead animal, but the moment has pasted for me trying to start small talk." Her french accent was strong with ever word she said. It was completely distracting. It almost reminds me of someone... But with the harshness of her words i couldn't tell.

"Oh sorry about that. I just found it and now I'm making something to eat for us." I was already starting to set up a fire. Not only to cook the rabbit, but to have warmth through the night. I grabbed a stick and tied the rabbit tight around it. Then placed it above the small fire. She nodded to let me know she was listening. Her and i were doing small chat. She then said her good byes and went to start setting up camp. It was nice and peaceful, until i heard a familiar accent.

"So~ how's my favorite person doing?" The Spaniard said, it sounded like he was trying to guilt Trip me. I mean, when is he not?

"What do you want." As i said that i got up and crossed my arms. This kinda sounded like the time he got me to bring him with me. Of course using money, every country's weakness. But for some reason he thinks i have a 'better connection with it'. "Well i just wanted to know how you were doing is all!" "Your lying skills are decreasing by the second." The Spaniard sarcastically acted like that hurt. "You know words have power." He was right, they do. "Alright then, I'm doing fine." He looked at me lifting his eyebrow. "No seriously, you were acting strange. What's going on?"

It's honestly scary how well he knew me. Knowing exactly what I felt like. I didn't really want to tell him about the native boy. he'd probably try and threaten the poor thing to Christianity as soon as he lays eyes on him.

"It's nothing. I swear." I lied. I wasn't proud of it, but it helped knowing all the times he's trick me. "Wait." He took a pause before continuing.

"Are you sea sick?!"
"Oh my- NO." This gained the attention from the French duo. What they saw? Well, a smirking Spaniard and a aggravated British man. "What's wrong with them?" The pirate asked. "Don't ask questions you don't want the answer to." The French lady started to lay out a blanket on the smooth grass. Of course before she did that she got all the little twigs that sticked up out of the way. It was big enough to fit at least three people, but they could make it work.

The moon rised in all it's glory as the sun was taking it's leave.

France was laying down. The pirate was getting more sticks for the fire on the other side of the camp. Spanish Empire was telling stories about him finding the south part of the new world, (We're already fixing it. (⁠ ͡⁠°⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ͡⁠°)) and i was just about to start serving the cooked ribbit.

"Alright, food is served."

We all quietly ate. Tomorrow was a big day, we'd probably be at our destination in one to two days. Just enough time to get back to France, to meet up with jane.

Let's do a break down. We all didn't trust each other, we're in the middle of the woods, and the random appearance. Everything is going to be fine.

Right?

...

"Hurry get out of the way!" He said. But it was all ready to late...
