United Nations nodded, "I know it's hard, for all of you. But this is a must. Starting today you are all teaching each other how to fight," His gaze swept over Japan, Drago, America, and China, "How to handle guns," He eyes shifted to Finland, Germany, Switzerland, and even Canada, "Using Knives," he stared at the Italy brothers, "How to stay out of sight," His eyes landed on England. "How to use things around the house as a weapon," he locked eyes with Hungary, "Swords and Axes of all kinds," Sweden and Denmark nodded. His eyes had scanned across the entire room, "All kinds of fighting styles and weapons. Start today... work on this every day. This is one of your top priorities."

"Yes sir," voices muttered around the room.

United Nations turned and made his way down the hall once out of view of the nations he sighed and looked up, Earth... what do I do? I promised you that I would take care of them, but I don't know what to do...

I rested my head on the table, after school today.

After school is when we have yet another session.

All this training, I'm not sure if I should be happy or not.

If I am being honest it's a little off-putting, everyone is serious about this. Even free spirits like Spain, North Italy, and America are serious about it. It's weird, and truthfully it scares me.

All around me people are free to be themselves, they have no idea the dangers that we let loose. And it bothers me, all this... all of it. The second players, the training, it's all starting to take a toll on me.

I closed my eyes, when I was younger everything was so much easier, I didn't have to worry about anything.

"It's okay (C/n), everything will be just fine."

I snapped my eyes open and looked around, that voice. It sounded... it sounded so close, I've never heard it before and yet it seemed familiar, welcoming.

It made me feel safe, just like when I was little listening to Drago's stories but this voice was different then Drago's. It was softer, more gentle, warm even.

I frowned not seeing anything out of the normal. That voice... Who's was it?

How did this voice know my real name? How could the owner of this voice know who I am? Did they know everyone else? Where they a threat?

My heart rate picked up, what if the owner of the voice wants to hurt us? What if they want to stop us from sealing our counterparts away? What if they are helping our second players? What if that voice belongs to my second player? Do I tell the others? Maybe I should ask someone else for help? But no one else knows who I am? Do I risk telling someone just to get some help? What if I tell the wrong person?

I dug my fingers into my hair pulling on it, why am I so nervous? Why am I questioning everything but my own existence? What is wrong with me? What if that voice was just my self-conscience?

"Hey!" A voice snapped me out of my thoughts, I glanced around once more, everyone was gone. Well almost everyone. In front of me stood America, "You in there (Y/n)?"

I gave him a soft smile to hide my nervousness, "Yeah... I'm here."

Alfred gave a laugh, "You were off in your own little world the whole class!"

Playfully I rolled my eyes, "It's hard to pay attention when I know the material already."

Alfred grinned, "Very true! I'm the same way! If I already know it I go off into my own little world!"

"Probably where I learned it," I giggled.

He nodded, "Me or Destiny, she does it too. She tells me that I'm worse though..."

I stood up gathering my stuff, "I can see that."

"Yea- wait," Alfred blinked, "Hey! I'm not that bad!"

I put my heads on my hips and leaned forward toward him slightly, "Really? You really want to go there?"

Alfred sent me a sheepish smile, "Let's just go."

"Good!" I chirped happily, glad to just be going home. If I'm quick enough I can sprint to my room and hide so that I can just relax. Maybe I'll take a nap.

The walk home wasn't long. Even though we call it home, it just doesn't feel that way to me. Despite being responsible for (C/n) I've only been there a few times. Maybe two or three times, but it felt like home. Talking to the people there felt... normal.

As soon as the front door opened I bolted, rushing up the stairs almost tripping, and closing my door quickly, I dived for my bed in the hopes of taking a nap.

I ended up turning on the TV in my room.

"Welcome to the finals our Kidz Plus competition! Where today one lucky  winner will be announced to our brand new Kids Plus Weathergirl."

I furrowed my eyebrows and looked over to the TV, "This sounds like an akuma attack waiting to happen. These people don't learn do they?" I muttered to myself and dropped my head back down on the pillow.

"We started off with 5,000 contestants, and with the help of our audience at home, we've whittled our talent down to just these 2 amazing young ladies. So, let's welcome our fantastic finalists. To my right, Aurore Beaureal! And on my left, Mireille Caquet!"

I sat up in time to see Aurore send a peace sign and a wink to the tv, Mireille seemed more timid and shy just giving the camera a nervous smile.

"Who'll be the lucky winner? Vote now! Type 1 for Aurore, and 2 for Mireille. And remember, standard text messages rates apply."

I rolled my eyes, "So... no. These people don't learn," I sighed and sent a glare at my door as a heavy German accent echoed through it. Telling me to get out of my room and join everyone in the basement to continuing training.

I grumbled angrily and got off my bed, glanced once more at my TV and trudged to the door.

ALL HAIL THE ALMIGHTY BURRITO!!!
