TW: Burning, mentions of the Fall of Vicksburg, blood and gore, and as always, a ton of swears.

"Y'know, if we couldn't fight off Valeria, we could always aim for someone else."

"Aim for who?"

"Massiah."

Mississippi was running. Behind him was the city of Jackson, which had become a wasteland. Buildings? Exploded. Lives? Taken away. The city representative of his capital had told him that Vicksburg needed help, even though he was severely injured as well.

"I saw Columbus. The one from Ohio I mean. I dunno what he was planning, but his face... the smirk... Shit's gonna go down." The vitiligo boy reported, his head bleeding from being thrown into a wall. Mississippi only nodded his head and started running towards Vicksburg.

"I swear to Jesus, don't hurt Vicksburg. Anything, ANYONE but Vicksburg. He was the only one I had-" Mississippi muttered to himself when someone stopped him. It was, of course, Ohio.

"Ohio." The state glared at the other motherfucker.

"Hi Sippi. Great to see you literally trying to run your own way to death." Ohio smiled genuinely while stepping away, behind him was Columbus tying up Vicksburg. Mississippi then pushed the northern state away and ran towards Vicksburg, hugging him. Columbus on the other hand, had just finished tying the city up. The knot he tied was...impossible to untie, and with Mississippi's panic, the knot went tighter and tighter.

As the two were trying their best getting the fuck outta here, Ohio smiled in a psychopathic way. Looking at the two suffering, he took out a lighter. "Set them on fire." He ordered and threw the lighter at Columbus. The Ohioan capital then caught it and set the ropes (that tied Vicksburg) on fire.

"Dad..." Vicksburg cried into the southern state's shoulder as the fire started to spread. Soon the fire burned the both of them.

Mississippi only hugged him tightly in response. Glaring at Ohio, he surrendered.

"Happy National Day, Massiah."

"Gah!"

Mississippi jolted up, on a hospital bed. He looked around, seeing a figure walk into the tent he was in.

That figure was Maryland. 

"Oh, you're awake." She said.

"Wh-where's-" Mississippi stuttered, trying to ask where Vicksburg was. Maryland only pointed at the other bed on the other side.

"He's gonna be fine. We can't die, remember?" Maryland comforted, "Yeah I know that Ohio is a fucked up person generally, but... Your city is gonna be fine. Maxwell and Hunter are trying their best to heal him up."

Mississippi only looked at Vicksburg who was sleeping, trying to hold his tears back.

"I...failed..."
