England's secret (Hetalia)

Chapter 1

The light of a full moon shone down upon a sight that had not been seen in centuries. A small clearing in the middle of an ancient forest was full of its light as a man performed a ceremony that kept his secret safe. Loud sounds echoed throughout the clearing as the man chanted an incantation, and a new source of light appeared that shone much brighter than the moon. Rising up into the air, tattoos started to appear on the strange man's body. He chanted the spell again and the swirling tattoos started to glow with a golden light. Silence filled the forest as the glowing stopped, and the exhausted man collapsed onto the lush verdant grass. Slowly opening his emerald eyes, the man pulled the hood of his dark cloak over his blond hair and his face was once again cast into the darkness.

The man stood up and strode out of the clearing, the dark green fir trees swallowing him up. Slowly noise returned to the clearing as nocturnal animals returned to the area. The clearing had returned to its usual state, and if anyone entered it they would believe that it was just an ordinary clearing.

The world conference was following the same routine as it normally did. America had a stupid idea, England argued with him, France and England started to fight, Russia scared people, Germany brought order to the madness and then Italy yelled "PASTA!!!!!!!!". However, there was a deviation from the normal routine around halfway through the conference. France had just made another comment to England about how he was the black sheep of Europe, but instead of ignoring it or yelling at France like he usually did, England stormed out of the room, leaving all of his notes behind. Many of the nations that were sitting close to England turned toward the dark oak door and wondered what France had done this time.

France was frozen, like a deer caught in the headlights of a car, as several nations glared at him. Many people were very irritated, since they couldn't continue the meeting without England. Several people who had heard what France had said to England were very shocked. Since when had England been so pissed off by France calling him the black sheep of Europe? France was even more shocked than the rest of the rest of the nations. England had never reacted to any of France's insults like that. He actually seemed genuinely upset. Coming to the conclusion that there was definitely something wrong with the Englishman, France passed around a note telling the former axis and allies to stay behind after the meeting to discuss England's strange behaviour. He only hoped that nothing was seriously wrong, and that England was just overreacting.

America was telling everyone his awesome idea of how they could create a group of superheroes to fly around and give food to people. His idea was so good, that no-one was yelling at him, and even England wasn't telling him how idiotic his idea was, so it must be a fantastic idea. Suddenly, America noticed that there was a small orange note on his desk. Wondering who it was from, America quickly read it.

'America stay in the conference room after the meeting has ended to discuss England's strange behaviour.'

America wondered what the person writing the note meant. Sure England hadn't disagreed with him in a while, but maybe he had just realise that his ideas were awesome and not stupid at all. Then America looked closer at the mass of chaotic nations and noticed that England was missing. So it was him that had left the conference earlier on! America had thought it was someone who was not meant to have been in the room, like Prussia or Sealand, and they had been kicked out by a proper nation (like Germany or England). England never left the conference before it had ended unless it was an emergency, and even when he did leave, he always told people where he was going, so America was a bit worried.

Earlier on in the meeting, America had seen England twiddling his thumbs and fidgeting. He could not believe it. England was fiddling! America was shocked, since England always scolded him when he fiddled, telling him that it was 'not gentlemanly' and 'impolite'. England stopped almost immediately, leaving America to wonder if what he saw really happened.

Quickly finishing his presentation, America returned to his seat and began to look around the conference room. Several people looked concerned about England's sudden departure, but only six people had an orange note in front of them. France, China, Russia, Japan, Germany and Italy where all looking at him, and he gave them a brisk nod before turning his attention back towards his epic plan to save Iggy from evil monsters from space.
