Mother Knows Best (Russia x Reader)

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝘁𝐞𝗿 𝐗𝐋𝐈𝐈

The sudden sound of an explosion made both Y/n and Russ freeze in their spots. Instead of screams, all they heard was silence, something felt so off about this, until the moment Russ looked outside the closet, and saw the fire was spread around them, but... it wasn't moving...?

"What is this..." he muttered, Y/n looked around, and her eyes widened, she could see something strange, a figure, in the dark, their golden eyes looking at her, "There they are," said the figure, before jumping out of the shadows and pouncing on the two. With a swift move, Russ moved in front of Y/n, shielding her with his body. 

Y/n closed her eyes for a mere moment, before moving out of the way, Russ stood, having been injured, "RUSS!!!" Y/n shouted, worried, but her voice was not trembling, not for a moment. She quickly ripped her dress off, as she deemed this would be necessary. 

She charged at the person, and with a swift move, uppercut them, although it seemed this was not nearly enough. Russ watched, before noticing that the figure was going for Y/n's back, without a word he attacked the figure and knocked them to the ground, although he didn't have the chance to finish them, as they rolled away. 

Russ went to run after them, but before he could, it seemed that the time began to move, as the fire began to quickly spread around him and Y/n, "Russ, we have to get out of here!" he heard a faint sound, but his body was frozen, what was this? "RUSS!!!" he heard a sound, muffled voice, "Russ!" there it went again, but he couldn't, Y/n without any other idea on what to do, she grabbed him by the wrist, dragging him along. 

"God damn it Russ! Why do you have to do this now of all times?!" she kept making him run behind her as they tried to make their way out of the castle, they ran through the main fall where the party was held, many were injured, and among them was the king himself who was very visibly dead...

"Shit..." she muttered as she quickly shouted, "Poland! Kira! Misha!" and luckily it seemed that the three were all well and on their own way out of the great hall where the party was held. Y/n took one last look at the hall, only to see Slovak smirking above his dead father and almost fatally injured brother. 

Slovak made eye contact with Y/n, a sense of a Russian winter came over her, her body caught the chills, and she felt like falling into a hole and disappearing. His stare told her everything, the way he looked at her, it seemed that he was waiting for this moment for ages, and he was not ready to give up now.

"Get out of here, and don't look back," she saw his lips move, and her eyes widened, without another word, she quickly pulled Russ through the hallways as the time seemed to have stopped again, however, she saw Poland and Kira running through the exit and Misha was with them, something didn't seem right here. 

However, as soon as they reached the exit themselves, Y/n realized... something was wrong wth Russ, "Poland!" she called out as they stood outside the castle, and in the front yard, where Russ was standing like a statue, something seemed to have happened to him. 

"What's wrong with Rossiya?!" she asked, to which Kira came up to further inspect, upon closely looking at him, it seemed he realized what was wrong, "He's phased out, something triggered him to just completely tune out of the reality." 

Russ stood sternly, yet he didn't have any expression on his face, Y/n stood there, worried, "What could have caused this?" she asked, looking at Kira, "Probably the death of the king, the bombing, he's lived through it once before." 

"WHAT?!" Y/n glared at Kira, "And you couldn't have mentioned this earlier?!" she shouted at him, gripping him by his shirt and hitting him hard across the face, knocking him to the ground, "You, fucking, knew that he had this trigger, and you knew this would happen, and you didn't think to tell me?! To warn me?!"
