A shot rang out and England fell to the ground "ENGLAND!!"America yelled running over to England and kneeled down by him "no England please don't die please please I need you"America cried
"its....okay your going to be....fine"England struggled to say

"I love you too"England said
"I promise that one day in another life we will meet and live happily together"America said brushing England's hair away from his face
"I hope we will, keep being your happy smiley self for me"England said as he closed his eyes and went limp
"ENGLAND NO PLEASE NO!!!!!"America screamed as he screamed he started to bawl and just hugging England tight not wanting to expect that he was dead. "I will see you again one day"he said and sat there for what seems like days.
FLASH FOWARD TO YEAR 2017 CANADA
Arthur's POV
I walked down to the inner harbour of Victoria in B.C, Canada. It was a beautiful City and pretty sights, It was a long time since I have been in Canada. Four Years I think, I hope I can get some writing in on my time free. I sat on a bench in the shade and looked at the harbour festival happening. "May I sit here?"A man with shiny Blonde hair, bright blue eyes and grey framed stood there asking me I looked next to me and nodded
"sure you may sit"I said and he looked happy
"are you British!!?"the man asked me
"umm, yes I am"I said quite scared
"cool I love the UK it seems so cool, with all the tea and queens and horses and sirs with top hats and on eye glasses!!"the man said he was annoying me
"they are called monocles"I said rolling my eyes
"Cool dude, i'm Alfred whats your name?"he asked
"Arthur nice to meet you"I said shaking his hand it felt familiar somehow. And he smiled
"so do you live in Victoria?"Alfred asked
"no i'm visiting from England"I said
"what brings you Canada?"he asked
"Business, i'm a writer and i'm visiting my business partner on business"I said
"business, business, business sounds boring"Alfred said laughing
"well it pays the bills"I smiled back.
"so your a writer cool is that your book right there?"he asked looking at my notebook
"maybe can't say anything, what do you do for a living?"I asked
"i'm a journalist, visiting from America"he said and I laughed
"which one north or south?"I said
"no America as in Untied states of America!"he said
"I knew that I was just messing with you"I said
"well damn I never knew British people knew how to joke"he said and I got annoyed
"what all those stereotypes are crap!"I said and he raised a eyebrow "we don't all drink tea all the time, we don't ride horse drawn carriages everywhere and we don't all know the Queen personally and we don't say Bloody hell or git all the time!!!"I said and he smiled
"your really annoyed sorry my brother says it something I have to work on"Alfred said and I sighed
"its okay, so what brings you to Canada?"I asked
"My brother lives here, we went to study here in Victoria in high school because of the better schooling"
"ahh"It went quite and I started to write in my notebook and look onto the water.
"hey want me to show you around the inner Harbour its nothing really special summer time should be used!"Alfred asked getting up and I sighed and got up and put my notebook away.
"fine"I said and we started to walk along the walk way. it was really fun and Alfred is like a kid. "so what kind of things do you write?"I asked
"things I find cool, like I want to write about the harbour fair because then I can go to the harbour fair"he said
"but if you only report about things you like then how do you much money?"I asked
"well thats the thing, i'm so good at what I do newspapers will buy my work from me and print it"Alfred said
"so your a big shot why haven't I read anything from you?"I asked
"you probably have its just most of my stories don't go as far as England" and I nodded and we stopped at this cart
"what are we doing?"I asked
"getting a Italian soda I heard they are really good" and I sighed
"I will get one two I have a friend who is from Italy but I haven't seen him in a long long time"I said as we got to the front of the line
"one lime Italian soda"Alfred said
"and one Strawberry Italian soda"I said and the guy nodded and I pulled out my money but Alfred stopped me
"no I will pay for this its only 3 dollars"he said and I put my money away and grabbed my soda. and we walked down to the flowers. "see these flowers its says Welcome to Victoria from up there"he pointed up to the boardwalk.
"really nice"I said taking a sip of the soda
"I have a great idea come with me"he said taking my hand and pulling me up the stairs to the boardwalk . "your not scared of heights are you?"
"no i'm not why?"I asked and he dragged me to the Museum and brought me up these stairs and pushed me to a window. It was beautiful "its beautiful"I said
"yeah I wanted to come up here so I brought you so you can enjoy it too"he said and I sat down as he grabbed his camera from around his neck and toke a picture "I will remember this moment thanks for coming with me Arthur"he said and I smiled he looked so....childish but at the same time mature.
"your welcome and thanks for the soda i'm going to be here for a month so maybe we can do this again"I said and he nodded.
"here is my number"he gave me a piece of paper and I put in my pocket and I wrote down my number and gave it too him. "have a good day I have to meet up with my brother in a half hour"he said walking down the stairs of the building. I looked out the window at the flowers spelling 'Welcome to Victoria' I loved it here.
