Endless Grief |Book 2| ❤(Countryhumans) ❤

Coming back home

World War 2, literally the worst time you can exist. Courtney and three other countries were sitting on a train together. The snuck up in the storage room, where there are crates of apples, which they fed on. The train ride was hours, and the children were bored out of their freaking mind, at least they got each other to talk too. Courtney was only scared for Erick, but he has to be safe. Courtney tried to call him, but it seemed like his phone was dead now. Strangely, her phone's battery never went down when she was here so how did his phone die?

"Courtney?" She heard East ask "How did you get here? In our world."

"Its a long story, and I can't even answer that." Courtney chuckled a little "Yeah but the second time I got here was through a friend, a magical one."

"What was your world like?" Italy asked petting Choco, the black purred then she stretched her body. "Is it peaceful or cruel like ours?"

East went up to Courtney and cuddled with her, soon she was surrounded with Chocolate on her lap. Is her world peaceful, no it was never peaceful in her eyes. People rioting and wars are never ending, but it was peaceful as well.

"The world is peaceful, but in other's eyes it's cruel." Courtney answered Italy's question "Nothing is perfect, my world and your world are the same."

Italy nodded then he slowly drifted to sleep, West then asked his question while his friend an brother had fallen asleep.

"What was your life before this?" West asked in a whisper "Before you met my grandfather and father."

Courtney didn't want to look back at her past, it was nothing great.

"It was normal, some struggles here and there, but I only made it through with Erick's help." Courtney smiled at the day Erick came to her house to celebrate Christmas.

Its was a cold day, he gifted her a fluffy coat and gloves. Courtney didn't have anything for him, after all she was broke but Erick didn't mind that. They spend the night with each other while his parents had left to go somewhere, and Erick doesn't want to stay in his empty wealthy house so he visits Courtney in a old broken house. At Least he was happy with her.

"I think you and Erick should be together, the other way." West sighed sleepily "You two would be a lovely......."

West had fallen asleep, Courtney knew what he was trying to say before. A lovely couple, she did like Erick, but she doesn't know if he would like her back. After all, would a clean saint man date a dirty thief? Still even when Erick found out that she steals things he didn't ditch her, which she liked about him. Soon night struck and Country knows they are safe from the phantoms, after all they can't get to her.

Days they have been in the train, and they jumped out as soon they learned that the train only travels to Germany and then goes back to Italy. Now they are back in Germany, some progress made, but also back in square one. They see the familiar houses in Berlin, they are back. West and East were so happy to be back, being homesick for a while ts the best gift they can get. Not to mention it's Christmas as well, one day before Christmas Eve.

Courtney made a decision, she can't bring West or East away from their father. Who she couldn't believe was once someone she called a family, ugh she was so stupid to believe she could change the history. The two got along, that time she was the youngest maybe like two years younger then Reich. And Weimar was probably the oldest, or was it Soviet? Either way it does matter what matters is bringing West and East home again.

"East, can't you believe it?" West smiled widely, spinning in the middle of the streets. "We are home!"

Their paint already started to peel off, so it didn't take a long time for people passing by to recognize them. Courtney took them away to the beautiful home of theirs, now events were playing in her head, after World War 2. West and East would've separated, one will become a communist and the other will be a capitalist.

They reached the gate, which was guarded. West and East entered the place with you following behind as their guest. They were so happy to be home, and everything was put back to its place. Italy and the two young German countries played together. Italy might be able to stay, it's not safe going back to his country.

"Hey guys?" Courtney sighed, she's going to break the news. "I have to leave you three here, where it is safe."

The smiling children frowned, they wanted to go home, but they also wanted Courtney with them.

"Why?!" West asked. "It's safe here, stay with us, father will be back soon."

"That is what I am afraid of." Courtney said "If he sees me he'll force me to leave this world, and I won't be able to finish my job!"

"What is your job?" Italy asked.

"Finding information and things is another long story." Courtney sighed. "But I have to go, and Italy you are going to stay with them."

"No, you need someone to help you, I can help!" Italy shouted

"No, I can't put you three in danger." Courtney commanded Choco jumped into her backpack"West, East make you father happy to see you two again."

Tears where threatening to leave the three countries' eyes as they agreed. Courtney got ready to leave, but before she left she turned back to them. "Don't worry I'll be back, and make sure you two always stay together don't let anyone separate you."

The last one was only for West and East. Courtney can't bare the fact they are going to spilt them apart. East came running to her with some cash so she can take a train to Russia. The four went into one last group hug, Courtney grabbed her backpack and went out after waving them goodbye. At least the three will be safe.
