Anna debates to herself frequently if killing someone is a good idea.

The idea starts to sound better and better by each passing day, which has been a measly five, since they arrived.

And by they, she obviously means the stupid idiots she calls countries. In the anime and manga, they were always bickering and she found it funny.

Now, practically housing them, she realizes that it is not funny. Sure, it was a little cute when Arthur and Alfred bickered for a little, but now, if another word comes out of either of their mouths, hands are going to go flying.

Every night, sometimes a few times a night, a customer would call and complain, meaning that Anna has to come and put a stop to it.

Anna needs to sleep. If she doesn't, bad things usually happen. Not for her, but for the people around her.

It's not pretty. Like really not pretty. Last time she was this tired, Anna ended up hugging everyone in sight, claiming to take their energy with each embrace.

It was horribly mortifying and Anna vowed to never be that tired ever again. But... here she was, walking around the hotel with puffy bags under her eyes and on the verge of breaking down.

Arthur is once again fighting with Francis, Ivan and Alfred seem to be having a tense conversation, and Gilbert seems to be tormenting everyone in sight.

All of these factors means that she isn't going to get sleep tonight either. Anna furrows her eyebrows, shutting her eyes for a moment and praying to whatever God is up there to make it silent.

For a moment, it's silent. Anna sighs in relief, starting up the-

"YOU BLOODY TWAT!"

Anna's foot catches on the stair causing her to fall face first into the steps. She succumbs to her fall, allowing herself to sink and doesn't even try to move.

"Anna?" A voice says, which the brunette girl instantly recognizes as Alfred's.

She mumbles noises in response to his questioning and Alfred chuckles, most likely squatting down to hear the sleepy girl.

"Aren't you gonna get up?" The blonde asks, "It's kind of dangerous for you to be laying there like a dead body."

"I'm so tired," Anna whines, not lifting her head from her carpeted steps, "Just leave me here to wilt away."

"I can't do that, ma'am." He pokes her head lightly, "Sleeping here will probably make you sick." Then, as an afterthought, in a cheery tone, "And I'm the hero! I can't leave a damsel in distress."

"I'm not in distress," Anna raises her head, her glasses slightly askew, "And I don't think I'm a damsel either. But," She lifts herself up until she in a sitting position, "You're right. I do need to get up."

Alfred grins at her, "I'm always right! I'm the hero!" He stands, pulling Anna up to her feet quite gracefully.

Anna is semi impressed because she's not exactly light. Though, she blows it off. He was always ridiculously strong in the anime/manga, so she's not going to worry about it.
