HetaOni: Once again

Chapter 1.5: It's Over

In a forest near the world summit, about an hour by foot. There once was a house on a hill, that was said to have been abandoned. No one knows who built it, or why, but many rumors circled around. Rumors of a monster living in the house, this was never confirmed as most who entered never came out, and if they so happen to be lucky....... They were never the same. All in all people avoided the house, no one being brave or foolish enough to go in.

Until one day a group of curious countries gathered together and went to explore the house. When they came out again they were all different, though it was hardly noticeable. After they left the house all countries gathered together and had a huge party for no apparent reason with foods from all over the world, and for once the world was at peace. A few days later, all the countries gathered at the house again and tore it down, until nothing was left. After all was said and done, one by one the countries began to leave. Until the only ones remaining were the former Allies and Axis, along with Spain, Prussia and Southern Italy.

"I still can't believe it...... It's finally gone" said Italy in a soft frail voice. His eyes held a distant gaze as if he were an old war hero, reminiscing the past.

"I know Italy, to tell you the truth neither can we." Germany replied placing a gentle hand on the Italian's right shoulder.

The other countries nodded in agreement. It only seemed like yesterday that they found the key at last and had the final showdown with Oni. Eveeyone finally getting out of the accursed house that now lay before them, as nothing but rubble.

With one last look the Allies and Axis turned around and walked back into the forest, to the town below.

Unknown to them, a creature was gazing at them from the shadow of the trees. Glaring at them with pure hatred and a desire for revenge.
