"SOMEONE CATCH THEM!" A angry and gruff mans voice shouted out after the people who were currently running away from his stall, with most of his store in their arms.The nearby guards startled awake by the sudden disturbance, only to realize what was happening and quickly getting up and running after the thieves.
"Russia! They're right behind us!" A panicked girls voice shouted out to the taller male, who was darting in and out of the surrounding crowd, carefully holding a basket of fruit by his side.
"Just follow me!" Russia yelled back to her, his free hand darting in and out of the people's pockets who were unfortunately placed near by the two criminals during the chaos.
The plaza they were currently committing multiple crimes in was filled with many citizens either shopping, working, or lounging around, making it rather easy for the two people to slip away from the officers who were chasing them into the crowd.
The two hurriedly ducked into a nearby alleyway, pressing tightly against the walls opposite each other and holding their breath.
Multiple guards passed by the alleyway in a rush looking around frantically the crowd of people and yelling something that both of the criminals didn't quite catch.
A few moments passed of forced silence before Russia carefully peeked out of the alleyway and scanned the area around them, there were no signs of the police anymore and everyone just carried on with their own business. It was as if the two criminals didn't just rob a man blind of his food and multiple others of their money.
Russia turned to face the shorter girl "Come on Poland let's go." He muttered quickly, pulling up the hood on his cloak to hide his face and picking up the other basket of fruit that was in Polands arms, balancing both of them on the sides of his body.
Poland shook her head up and down enthusiastically, a bright smile of her face, before pulling Russias hat that he had given her down and tightly wrapping her own cloak around herself.
Together they exited the alleyway with Poland practically hiding behind Russias massive figure.
Both of them secretly prayed to the gods that nobody would call out the mysterious lumps on their backs that showed through their cloaks.
The duo came across a few guards asking around for "two mysterious individuals" but they successfully avoided getting spotted and made their way to the nearby forest.
Their way there was uninterrupted and they walked a bit to a lush green clearing not to far from the plaza they were just in, birds chirped all the way there and Poland looked around in awe, excitedly pointing things out to Russia around them as they made their trip to there.
It didn't take long for the two to reach the clearing, with Poland stripping away her cloak while walking, revealing a pair of white wings that stretched as she did, but still keeping on Russias hat.
The area surrounding them was full of countless flowers without a hint of civilization in sight, well besides the massive castle the loomed in the distance just over the trees that blocked most of it.
Russia looked at it with disdain as he set down the baskets of fruit and emptied out his pockets of all the things he stole.
"Phew!" Exasperated, Poland swiped the sweat on her forehead with her arm before plopping onto the grassy ground floor.
Looking over to her, Russia bent down to quickly rummage around the pile of goodies, his eyes landing on a flask of water.
Grabbing it, he swiftly walked over to the female sitting on the floor and with a slight smile on his face, held it out to her.
The girl eyed it with temptation before looking back up to the other male.
"Come on Rus, you should drink it, you have to be in your best shape tonight." A smile creeped onto her face, not quite reaching her eyes though.
"Oh please" he scoffed, sitting down beside her "Ill have plenty of chances to steal more while I'm there" a sly smile etched on his face.
She playfully pushed him on his arm, somewhat knocking him over "Well if you do have a chance to steal more water, make sure to at least grab something else worth a lot of money to!" There was a pause before she added "And lightweight, I don't want to be stuck carrying something all that way down"
A small chuckle exited Russia before he responded "Alright then, how about we split this water, and while I'm getting Mr. Fancy pants you can go get some more supplies for when we leave tomorrow." He turned to look at her.
"Deal." She said triumphantly, quickly snatching and downing half of the flask of water before handing it back to Russia.
Russia took small sips while looking all around him, the sun wasn't visible but it was still bright out with only a few hints of orange in the sky. It was bound to be dark in a hour or so.
The duo sat together on the grassy floor surrounded by endless green around them, silently they both watched as the sky went from a peaceful blue into a violent orange.
