In Cold Blood (countryhumans)

1-He Never Arrived.

Russia.

It's been almost a year since the murder. I still remember everything perfectly. It was a cloudy afternoon, but it was warm. We all sat on the floor of Americas' house as we talked about different topics. We were all so happy, not a care in the world. Talking and joking around, when I received a text message..

August 1st, a year prior.
Germany.

I felt like I was third wheeling Russia and America. Even though they tried to keep me included, their subtle affection made me feel kinda bad for being there. Russia reassured me that it was no big deal, and that my boyfriend would show up shortly. I chuckled.
- Yeah, I suppose so- I responded. Then, Russias phone went off. A text message. He picked it up and read it.
- Боже мой, Could this kid take any longer.- He rolled his eyes.
- Was is das?- I asked, in slight concern.
- Nothing, Poland just said that he'll be, like, 20 minutes late because he can't find his house keys.- Russia sighed in slight annoyance. America chuckled at that. I just sighed and stared at the door. These 20 minutes will be a long time.

5 minutes later, Russia received another text.
- Oh great, he's leaving the house now.- He said, with still, a bit of annoyance in his voice. I nodded, and we continued to talk and joke around.

30 minutes later
August 1st.

I got anxious. It has been half an hour, Polands house is just 15 minutes away from Americas, he should've been here by now. I turned to Russia.
- Could you ask Polen where he is?- I asked. Russia raised his brow.
- He said he left, he should be here any minute- He declared, oblivious to how much time has passed.
-That was half an hour ago!- I said, slightly agitated.
- что? Really?- he said, now dumbfounded.
- That's a bit too long..- America added.
I nodded and pulled out my phone and texted him.

< Polen, where are you
<Hallo?
<Please, answer me.

There was no response. I had gotten very worried, Polen always answers his phone. Always. I called him. No response. God, what is happening? Is this some sick joke? It better not be. Suddenly, the door opened. I was about to scream Polands name, but..

It was just Ukraine..

He peaked his head through, and America turned around.

- Sorry Uke, Canada isn't here right now.- He declared.
- Oh, I know, he asked me to grab something for him!- he said, before walking fast up the stairs. We continued talking, but the atmosphere was lower because of our worries. I heard Ukraine leave the house. My heart was beating so fast, I could barely hear America and Russia speaking.
- We should go to his house.- I said.
- Huh? Why?- America asked, puzzled.
- B-Because..!- I started to stutter.
- What if s-something is wrong.? You never know..- I sighed. Russia and America stood up, and helped me up aswell. We walked out, and took a 15 walk to Polands house. I knocked on the door..

No answer.

I knocked again, and again. But.. nothing. Eventually, I pulled on the doorknob. The door was locked.
- It's.. Locked?- America spoke.
- Ja..- I responded, before pulling out the spare keys to his house that I keep in my pocket. I unlocked his door, and looked inside. Nothing. Everything was as it was supposed to be. Russia and America followed me inside as we investigated his house. But, nothing was weird, or out of place. His shoes were gone, which indicated that he had left his house already. I called his phone again. Maybe he left it? No. Everything was silent. My hands started to shake. I felt so uneasy. What happened to him?! I felt my body turning to panic mode, and started to slightly hyperventilate and shake. Russia noticed this, and came to me. He wrapped his arms around me and caressed my back slightly, in hopes of calming me down. It worked a bit, as my breath slowly started to slow down, but my body was still shaking.
- Calm down, Германия.. It's going to be okay.. - He said softly. I gulped loudly as he let go of me.
- Let's go to my place, we can figure out everything there..- Russia spoke again. America and I nodded and walked out. I locked the door again, and followed them back to Russias place.

Russia.

This whole situation was scaring me. I felt uneasy and scared. Which isn't something I usually feel. I walked into my house, to see Ukraine and Canada sitting on the sofa, talking. America looked at them, and sighed lightly.
- Could you guys go over to my place? We want to discuss something. Alone.-  He stated, sternly.
- Alright.- Ukraine said, standing up. Canada was un sure, but followed him out. We sat down on the couch and tried to summarize what had just happened.
- Was there anything "off" about the last message he sent.?- Germany asked.
- Нет..- I gave my reply.
- Everything was normal, he even called me a "kretyn" and everything.- I finished. Germany nodded.
- What do we do? We should probably inform EU, right? He could start a search..- America said. I saw Germanys' face go slightly pale.
- A.. A search..?- He asked.
- Yeah.. He can be considered missing at this point..- America answered. Germany sighed, and agreed. We talked a few more things over, and eventually, we all left to go find EU, and find our friend..

No ones P.O.V

The three countries finally found their way to EU. They knocked on his office, and were let it.
- Hello. What brings the three of you here.?- EU asked. Germany was well seen in EUs eyes, but Russia and America were not, since they did not belong to the EU.
- This is about Polen, sir..- Germany started.
- Ugh, dear.. What did he do this time..?- EU rolled his eyes, expecting this to be yet another complaint towards the smaller country, since they weren't uncommon.
- No, sir.. He didn't do anything wrong.. He's.. missing..- Germany said, barely able to get it out. EUs face turned dead serious.
- He.. What?- EU asked. This intimidated the three countries.
He's gone, sir. Missing.- Russia continued, so Germany didn't have to.
- This is absolutely unacceptable.- EU replied, with slight worry in his voice.
- I will start a search immediately, thank you for informing me. Theres a meeting tomorrow at 5AM. Do not be late. We shall discuss it then. - EU hissed. The three countries nodded, said their goodbyes and left.

They did not know what was coming..
