The next day, it still kept raining. Pole really didn't like that. He really wanted to see his brother again. At least he still had Texas and Saharya to be there for him. Little did he know, Texas would be leaving soon. There was only two more days, and then he's gone.

There was a note on the wall by a closet telling the dates for future meetings and when people would become independent. He turned around to make sure no one was watching him (there wasn't) and pulled out a paper to write everything from the note down. Everyone else was doing something that apparently he couldn't join since he wasn't there as long as the others.

A couple minutes later, there was a knock at the door. Pole put the paper back in his pocket and unlocked the door. It was UN.

"Oh hello Pole! I know that you sadly couldn't come with the others but I'm just here to check on you." UN said, trying to stay a bit happy.

"What's wrong UN..?"

"Oh nothing, I just wanted to tell you that everyone's gonna be independent in a couple days.. including you."

"Wait.. really?"

"Yes. I am not lying about this." UN muttered under their breath. "You know what? I guess I can take you too." They teleported Pole there. It was going to take a little bit of time.

.............................................

Meanwhile, everyone else was at some sort of ceremony. As they passed a sign that read "Ceremony Of Independence", it was true that they were not ready for this. All of a sudden, Pole appeared after he got teleported by UN.

"Poley!" Texas was so happy to finally see his friend appear. They both hugged and kept going.

"Hey Solar, my dad literally was here for this before he became independent." Rikulandia said, at least trying to be nice.
"At least that Postmomen guy that's your dad is fucking dead!" Solaria replied, trying not to burst out laughing.
"Hey! This ceremony shit was still around before UN was born!"

That was true. The independence ceremony had just came back after UN stopped it for 10 years. It would always be at the end of the year, just so everyone could be there. Everyone waited behind the building as the audience gathered at the front doors.

UN walked up to the stage, grabbing the microphone, trying to test it.

"Testing, testing, hello?" They tapped on it a couple more times, "Hello? Alright good. Come on in everyone!"

Everyone that waited at the front walked inside as soon as they could and sat down. Some people started to record, others just talking to people. It seemed like everyone was just having fun, waiting for the ceremony to officially start. UN walked off the stage and went out the back doors, getting everyone prepared.

"Okay guys, you know what to do. We've talked about this last meeting right?" UN reminded everyone.

"Yeah, but is Mimmy here?"

"Of course he is, Pole. I'm sure of it."

UN checked the time on their watch as the sun set and the moon rose. They were excited to get this started, but at the same time, they were nervous about something going wrong. They knew Mexico did bad things to Texas. They saw it for themselves. Luckily, nobody bad was there. Not yet, anyways.

Meanwhile, America and D.C. kept waiting patiently with some of the other states as everyone kept talking amongst themselves. Florida pulled out his phone from his pocket and played some music quietly as more people arrived nearby. Australia and some cities came in and sat down.

"Aussie!!" Florida gave Australia a big hug as the cities talked to each other.

"My god, I can't wait!" Austin said excitedly.
"I can agree with ya on that one." Dallas replied smugly.

San Antonio and Houston got their phones ready to record. UN walked up to the stage and picked up the microphone.

"Hello everybody! We will start the festivities shortly. For now, you can meet up with other family members and wait patiently. Thank you!" UN walked off the stage, microphone in hand.

"Oh my precious baby!!" Saharya's mother, Nanatime exclaimed, tears in her eyes. "My only child will experience this!"

Around an hour later, as everyone else walked in and took their seats, UN walked up to the stage.

"Hello again everyone! Oh, and hello newcomers." They took a breath. "After ten years of this ceremony.. not being held due to people being independent quickly, We have brought the independence ceremony to its return."

People started to clap and cheer in the crowd.

"Thank you, thank you. Now, this year as our ten year comeback, we have six people here that will be able to come up to the stage and say what they want to say. We will start the ceremony shortly."

As they walked off the stage, everyone in the crowd began to cheer, waiting for the first person to walk up to the stage. However, they didn't know that it would take a while for it to start.

Meanwhile, UN was backstage, trying to get everyone prepared.

"Okay, I know most of you have stage fright, but you guys can do it." UN assured, trying to make it clear. "Just try your best. I'll be here if you need anything else. I'll be standing right here so nobody sees me, but they can see you, okay?"

"But UN, what will you do for short people like me?" Pole asked.

"I'll adjust the microphone stand thing whenever it's someone's turn so it can go to their height. Any other questions?"

"Yeah, what about Mimirm? He's already independent." Solaria said.

"Oh, well he will still have to be here anyway. I'll let the audience know about that. I will return in just a bit." UN walked up to the stage, adjusting the microphone stand to their liking.

"Hello everyone! I am so glad you could make it tonight for the ten year comeback of the independence ceremony." People clapped and cheered as UN took a breath. "Let the festivities begin!"

UN called Rikulandia up to the stage.

The festivities have begun.
