Mace (Molossia)-Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington D.C, 12:00 PM-April 5th, 2024

Mace sighed as Annie and Rosa argued with each other. They were going to the Natural Science Museum before going to the National Portrait Gallery. It was a compromise the two had made. Rosa wanted to go to the Natural Science Museum because she wanted to see the animals. However, Annie wanted to go to the National Portrait Gallery because she wanted to see the art there.

The compromise was that they would play rock, paper, scissors and whoever won, they would go see what they wanted first. Rosa won and Annie wasn't happy about it. Mace was assigned to keep them in check with Ren's help at the start of the day because of course, he had to. Mace didn't know why Alfred wanted a state's help with this.

He hadn't done this before, maybe because the countries were here and he didn't want them to expose them. He didn't exactly know. Whatever the reason, Mace could take care of them himself, he didn't need a state's help. They were about to turn onto 10th St. NW when a voice called out.

"Molossia?!" A familiar voice called out. Mace was glad he was wearing the attire he normally put on for the other micronations. However, he didn't know how to explain why he was with three other people they didn't recognize. He could say that the others were micronations as most of them were, but Ren was a problem. Mace glanced at Ren as he turned around, hoping she would get his message.

"Sealand! Wy! What are you doing here? Where are the others?" Mace answered with his arms crossed.

"Well, we had to follow the countries to their meeting as we wanted to get in! However, we got kicked out again!" Sealand groaned, "So we decided to explore."

"What about the others?" Mace asked.

"We left them as they didn't want to follow us!" Sealand answered. Wy nudged Sealand and pointed towards the others behind Mace, "Who are they?"

"They're other micronations that are located in America." Mace introduced, stepping back so the other two could see them.

"Why didn't you tell us?" Wy asked.

"Because who would want your younger siblings following you around." Mace answered, Annie and Rose looked hurt at that.

"I'm older than you, Mol." Ren announced as she stepped forward. Ren was 4 inches taller than Mace, standing at 5'6 while Mace stood at 5'2. It was quite easy to see who was older in terms of height.

"Damnit!" Mace cursed in his head, Ren wasn't supposed to do that! Mace internally panicked as Sealand asked who she was.

"I'm a micronation, specifically, the Republic of New Connecticut. You can call me New Connie, Connie or Ren for short." Ren answered, confidently. Mace sighed internally, she did have a name ready.

"Nice!" Wy smiled, "What about those two?"

"I represent the micronation, Aynvaul, you can call me Annie!" Annie announced.

"I represent the micronation, the Conch Republic, you can call me Rosa or Conch!" Rosa announced as well.

"Awesome!" Both Sealand and Wy shouted, Ren giggled.

"Soooooo.....what do you want to do?" Wy asked.

"We were about to head to a museum! Do you wanna come along?!" Annie inquired.

"Sure, sounds like fun!" Wy answered, Sealand nodded alongside her. Annie looked at Ren who was looking through her wallet.

"We have enough for everyone." Ren declared as she shoved her wallet back into her pocket.
