Christmas morning, (y/n) went downstairs to see five males sitting in the living room.
"Finland has not come back. Something is wrong.", Norway said, "he is always here to give us presents on christmas."
The information clicked.
"Oh.. that's who I was trying to shoot down every year..", (y/n) thought aloud.
"You what?", Iceland asked.
"Shoot down a weird guy and some deer.", she explained, "food was tough to come by during winter."
The nordics were horrified.

"That does not mean you should shoot down santa!", Denmark scolded, "I'm going to look for him."
"We'll come.", Sweden said and got his coat, "I'm worried as well."
Norway grasped (y/n)'s hand and pulled her with them as Sealand followed behind, bouncing happily in the snow.
Denmark led the way as they searched, Sweden brought up the rear.
Iceland and Norway made sure (y/n) did not bolt.
The smell of ash was powerful, and smoke lingered.
Soon iron was met with gunpowder.
Sweden covered Sealand's eyes, Finland lay in the snow. Headless.

Norway let go of (y/n) and went to his brother's body, the Norwegian male placed a hand on the Finnish man's back.
"He's alive, the reforming was slowed down somehow.", the Norwegian said.
The Scandinavian female looked at the ground, footprints were everywhere.
These prints were all to familiar to her, her brothers!
They were here!
(Y/n) pulled away from the group and ran to where the footprints headed: Home.

A flapping caught her attention and she looked up in time to see sir puffin tackled by Mr. Puffin, the birds started a midair battle.
Her feet moved faster and faster, she was going home!
(Y/n)'s hopes were soon crushed when large hands grabbed her waist and picked her up, Sweden had caught her.
She struggled and threw her cross choker at sir puffin, the bird caught the cross and flew off.
The Swede carried her back to the others and Finland looked right at (y/n)
"You should not have brought her here, they are looking for her.", He growled as the last bit of hair reformed, "and your gifts are ruined!"

"But are you okay?", Sweden asked.
"I'm okay. But we need to keep (y/n) safe. Those maniacs are after her.", the finn scowled.
(Y/n) growled, "I can take care of myself!"
"You cant! They are too powerful for you to handle alone!", Finland exclaimed, "you have to stay safe!"
The silver haired female became enraged and grabbed him by the neck, "I DID NOT FORGET ABOUT KIMBERLY, YOU KILLED HER"
The Finnish male started choking as she strengthened her grip on his throat, the others tried to pry her off but was pushed back effortlessly.

Her violet red eyes went darker and she bared her sharper than average teeth, "I remember that I was happy. Then you took that from me. I was safe and you took that away."
Norway tried to pry them apart but was caught by her hand around his arm and crushing  under her grip, he screamed painfully.
Iceland attacked when his brother screamed, but he was kicked in the chest and flew back into a tree.
Norway used his other hand to knock her out, her body fell to the snow.
"I did not want to do that", Norway sighed and healed himself.
Denmark scooped (y/n) up, "I was hoping that she would not become aggressive again"

---Egil---

I sat out in the snow, making snow bunnies like litla systir and I used to when Sir puffin flew down.
He had (y/n)'s Cross pendant in his beak, the one Thurston made her.
"Where did you find this?!", I asked and grabbed the bird.
"(Y/n) threw it to me when I saw her with the 1ps", sir puffin said, "release my form."
I did and he gave me the pendant, I hugged it.
"That brute Mr. Puffin attacked me too.", Sir puffin complained, "What a savage"
I did not listen as I ran my finger over the metal that constantly touched my sister's skin, the cold surface that always was against her smooth warm skin.
It was in my hands.

I shakily brought it to my face and took a sniff, it smelled like her.
I could not help but smile, I love her and want to make sure she is safe.
My hands shook as I thought of hugging her again.
A huge grin creeped across my face.
I got up and took the charm to the others and told them what Sir Puffin told me.
I could tell they were excited as well.
Bernard and Thurston especially.
They seemed particularly interested when I showed the cross to them.
Bernard took it and sniffed it, Thurston took it before he could lick it.
I had to run before he beat me up again, he's so grumpy.

~the 1p nordics~

Denmark took (y/n) up to her room and set her down on the bed, "what made you so angry?"
The dane went downstairs when he put her to bed and went right for a beer.
Finland sat in front of the tree and seemed to be thinking over why his opposite attacked, and what he wanted with (y/n).
"Thinking of something?", Norway asked.
"When our 2ps attacked, they knew her name. What she looked like, and that we had her.", Finland responded, "Almost like they met her before. We should not leave out the possibility that she knew them."

"That is a dark thought.", Sweden interjected, "but we should keep that in the back of our minds."
"I saw sir puffin eyeing the lass, so I attacked. No doubt he told egil.", Mr puffin huffed.
"Ja.", Denmark nodded, "but what the hell do they want with her?"
"More power? She is strong both physically and Magically.", Iceland said, "we've seen her magic firsthand and felt her sheer strength."
The five all nodded silently, Sealand had only one thing bugging him.
"Is it true?", the blond british boy asked, "did you kill Kimberly?"
Finland hung his head.
"I did."

The christmas they had was not white as the snow outside or as warm as the fire that crackled, it did not bring joy.
This christmas they had was cold hard and red.
A blood Soaked christmas.
A Red Christmas.
