Trapped (A Hetalia Mystery Novel)

~Chapter Seven~

Horry sheet, today (July 19th) is my 12th year anniversary of existence.

But! I do not care whatsoever. Well, happy b-day to me.

CANADA'S POV

"Wh-why? Ho-how come you s-suddenly remembered me?" I asked him as I let him in. He obliged and hanged his jacket on the coat rack.

"Welllllllllllll, I was bored. And I had no one to annoy! So I thought of you! Besides, when was the last time we hanged out with each other?"

"Exactly 137 years ago." I answered nonchalantly.

"I. . . . did NOT expect you to answer that. Has it really been that long?" He laughed nervously. I opened my mouth to reply.

"DON'T ANSWER THAT!" He stopped me before I could say anything.

"Alright. What do you mean you have no one to annoy?" I asked as he sat (more like jumped) on the couch.

"Everyone's busy trying to handle the other countries' governments. And others are still trying to track the murderer or trying to figure out who he or she is!" He yelled in a exasperated tone.

"Aren't you suppose to help them? Don't you have a plan?"

"W-WHAT? U-uh, o-of course I h-have a plan! The Hero! a-always has a plan! And i-it's a great plan!" He stuttered waving his hands. I sighed and rolled my eyes.

"Oh really? Then why aren't you doing your so-called plan, eh?" I smirked.

"Uh, because. . . because a perfect plan takes time! Yeah! That's right! HAHAHAHAHAHA!" He laughed his infamous hero laugh and silently congratulated himself for thinking a good reason.

I just half-heartedly laughed at his antics.

"So, what are your plans for today?" I asked him.

"Ughhhhhh, I don't technically have anything in mind so I brought a bunch of stuff and basically do anything!" He started pulling out video games and movies, he froze halfway from pulling a 'World War Z' movie.

"Al? Is something wrong?" I asked concerned.

"Is that. . . ?" He trailed off and started smelling the air. He jumped off the couch and rushed to the kitchen. Oh no, don't tell me. . .

"YEEHAH! PANCAKES!" I sighed. Yup.

"A-Al, please save some for me and Kuma!" I followed him to the kitchen. Please tell me he hasn't ate it all.

LATVIA'S POV

I bit my lip and hugged my legs close as I stared at the object in my palm. I looked at the ceiling of my pitch black room, the horrid memory kept on replying in my mind. I couldn't get it out of my mind. But Mr. Russia was kind enough to let me go to my room early. If only there was some kind of mind wiping gun. Anything to get it out of my head. Because, I saw him die. Right before me.

I saw Estonia die right in front of me.

FLASHBACK

"Latvia, could you please get Estonia down here? It's time for dinner." Mr. Russia said to me with the same childish yet creepy expression of his, making me shake a bit.

"O-okay, Mr. Russia." I quickly got rid of my stutter and quickly went upstairs to Estonia's room.

"Good boy."

I went to the hall where my, Estonia's and Lithuania's rooms were. I went to the farthest room in the hall and knocked on it quietly.

"E-Estonia? Mr. Russia told me to get you. He says it's time for dinner." I called out, hopefully he's not too busy on his computer so he could hear me.

I pressed my ear onto the wooden door to hear if there was any reply. None. I looked at the door skeptically and reached out to grab the knob. But something caught my eye, well my foot mostly. I looked down to see that I have stepped on something thick and wet. It had a dark shade of crimson. Almost black.

'I-is this. . . ? No. . . Oh God, please no!' I started trembling, I was greeted by a sound of what seems like a gun shot. But it was too quiet to be certain. I doubt it would even reach the end of the hall. Then, a thud. And another.

My eyes widened and I started shaking as I reached the door knob and I shakily turned it, I opened the door. I saw him. He was halfway out the window. The creaking of the door must've allerted him.

He looked at me. But he didn't attack me. Instead, he smiled at me. Not the natural smile. It was the smile of a mad man. Almost ear to ear. He flashed me a peace sign and threw the gun in his hand to the floor. Then he jumped.

I was in shock but I finally snapped out of it. I wish I didn't. I saw the disgusting scene before me. A lump formed in my throat but I couldn't yell for help. All I could muster was a terrified scream.

I fell down onto the hard floor and started crawling back into the hallway. I didn't notice I picked up something. My breathing pace quickened and ragged, I started shaking violently. I felt something rising in my throat, I felt like I was gonna throw up. I heard frantic footsteps to my right where the stairs are. I looked to the side to see Mr. Russia, Ms. Ukraine, Ms. Belarus and Lithuania running towards me. They all seemed frantic.

"What's wrong, Latvia!?" Lithuania asked me as he kneeled down. I raised a shaky hand and pointed to Estonia's door. Mr. Russia seemed to understand what I meant and pulled out his iron pipe, Ms. Belarus did the same with her knives.

They walked to the door and opened it. Ms. Ukraine screamed, horrified of the scene before her and quickly rushed to the bathroom, and Lithuania covered his mouth with his hands. Mr. Russia was shocked but Ms. Belarus was only surprised.

"Lithuania, get Latvia down stairs and report this to Mr. Germany. Belarus, go check up on Big Sister Ukraine." He ordered and we reluctantly followed.

"That killer has some nerve to break in my home." I heard Mr. Russia mutter angrily as he clutched his pipe.

ND OF FLASHBACK

I couldn't get rid of that horrible experience out of my mind. But Ms. Ukraine was getting better than me. But I have a feeling that Ms. Belarus thought it was me.

I stared at the small piece of glass in my hand. It wasn't from a window, it looked too plastic. It looks like something from a pair of glasses. But it wasn't Estonia's though. I checked. But no one else knows that I have this and I saw the killer. I'm don't think I could do it.

"Maybe I should visit Wy and Sealand tomorrow. Maybe they could help." I muttered to myself as my eyes began to droop

YAY! I UPDATED! I know it sucks but deal with it.

We're starting to get back on track.

Who do you guys want to see in the next chapter?

Well, that's all for now. Happy 12th anniversary of existence to me.
