...We Could...

Fumi Thirty-Four!

Okay, so I'm getting sliiiightly impatient over my story, so I'm just going to plow through right now! It means that this book will be shorter than the previous, but it also means that, in the terms of Japan, "Hory sheet!" will happen. So! MAJOR TIME SKIP IN OURAN. MINOR TIME SKIP IN HETALIA. NO TIME SKIP IN HOLDING WORLD:

--------------------------------------------------------

Tiri toddled about the house. He was about two, but he was very quiet. Don't let that fool you into thinking that he was dumb. Oh, no. He was almost as smart as his good friend Evan.

Speaking of which, the little guy was over at his house.

"Tirwi, Tirwi," the small guy called, coming up to the boy. "Wanna rweed-a book?"

Tiri nodded his head. "Otay."

Kiana smiled as she watched them go into the play room.

"Man," Alice chuckled. "They're so smart. We need to get them tested. They might be countries."

Kiana laughed. "Oh, Tiri is smart, but I doubt that he's a country. Last I checked there wasn't any kind of political land that was both Italian and Persian."

Alice shrugged, leaning against the wall. "Eh. Oh, well. Are you coming to see us off?"

Kiana shook her head sadly. "No, I need to make sure the kids mind Lovino. Otherwise I would."

"Mom?"

Alice looked over to see Milo. "Yes, sweetie?"

"When are you coming back?"

Alice pulled him into a hug. "We'll be back really soon, Milo. I promise. Now behave for Kiana and Lovino, okay? And make sure that Tiana and Evan mind as well."

"I will, Mom," he reasured, hugging back.

Alice sent him away to go play. The poor guy was the oldest one here! But he had brought a few things to occupy his time. Not to mention his school work!

Inallika came up to the group of girls. "Well, I think it's time we're off to Kadi's, ja?"

Alice nodded. "Da. I'll go get the boys."

"Ve're already here," came Ludwig's gruff reply. Matthew was behind him. "We're suppose to be at Kadi's right now... How are we suppose to get there?"

Alice grinned.

Matthew paled.

Oregon grabbed her friends and husband, and suddenly they were in front of Kadi's house.

"I hate teleportation..." Matthew groaned, staggering to catch his balance.

Kadi flew open the door. "Y'all git in heah!" she ordered.

The four laughed as they hustled up the steps and were lead into her special mansion.

"I marked the door that we're to go in," she explained to the group, leading the way down the pure white walls. "We're going to go into a house similar to this one, but we will meet a man there. His name is Adam. He looks a lot like you," she explained, looking back at the Brit. "But with a more brown tint to his hair." She turned back to face the way she was walking. "Anyway. He's going to put Carmen's DNA sample into his scanner and will find out exactly where she is. There might be more than one option, since her personification might be in other areas as well. But we'll know which one to go into. We'll sneak in, kidnap her, and bring her back home." She halted at the door and turned to face the small group. "Any questions?"

They all shook their heads.

"Have you done everything that you needed to here? Goodbyes, babysitters?"
