"um...excuse me. I don't mean to be rude but...why are you here?" I try to say loud enough for them to hear me. It seems like Rome couldn't here me over him arguing (well, would it be called arguing if you are crying about something someone didn't say?). However the other man did
"We're here because of my son." Again I couldn't tell the difference if it was German or Swedish, in fact, it was harder to tell.
"Huh? Oh yeah! We're here because of Prussia!" Two hands pressed on the end of the bed, which scared me for a moment until I remembered they're ghosts.
"Wait? Prussia? Why do you need me for him?"
"Because he cheated his fate" The Swedish/German man seamed angrier as he said "fate."
"What do you mean?"
"Oh it's easy-peezy to cheat death when your a county! All you have-a to do is get someone to believe in you! It's-a even better if you get a big county to notice you!" The hands lifted of the bed.
"You see, when the governments and public stop believing in a country they start to disappear. However, they are still on earth, but nobody can see them. We get 1 time to have people around you see us."
"So Prussia used up his last day?"
"No, that's-a the problem. When an empire doesn't visit, they-a give off...um"
"They become almost like a poltergeist."
"Just-a to some people." He added
"So...? I'm one of those special people? Why did you need me then?""
"Because we need him to stop. If he uses his 1 into little bits and pieces at a time, he's not going to be able to use it."
"I...I can't get him to stop! I saw him once! First of all, who knows when I'll see him again! Second of all, if I do see him, what makes you think that he'll give up his one free card for me?"
"That's the problem! He isn't using his powers on purpose! You are draining it out of him!"
I was shaking at the thought of what I've done. 'All those people that care about him, won't see him again...because of me. Papa!" There was dead silence.
"I'm...sorry. I didn't know! I'll do my best to avoid him..."
"Thank you" then nothing
Nothing
"Are, uh, you guys still here?"
Nothing
'My only friend and I'm told not to talk about him, and never see him.'
