Fate's Strings (2p! Hetalia x Reader)

Chapter Eighteen

(Okay...I managed to get this done even in the middle of midterms and the start of haunt season oof. This will probably the last chapter I post until November. Tomorrow I start working at my haunted house every night so I will be really busy trying to juggle school, work, and haunting.

Just for fun, I might as well share the story on how I got the motivation to write even though I'm so busy. I was watching the Steven Universe movie over the weekend and got the crack idea of coming up with an au of a spinel like main character, who was created by Holy Rome to be a companion to Feliciano. I wrote some backstory and then an excerpt based off of the song other friends. It was literally a case of the meme

Nobody:

Absolutely nobody:

Me: so I have this idea based on hetalia and Steven universe-

If anyone is actually interested in my crack idea comment I guess and I'll post an extra chapter with the ideas and excerpts. I might do one based on drift away if I keep going with the idea too.

Anyways, just a warning, the MC's memories will finally fully return in this chapter! I really hope you guys enjoy! I just want you guys to know, that this story is definitely not close to being over yet. I still have a lot of plot planned, so don't worry! It may be slow going, but it will get there lol.)

When I opened my eyes, my body jolted from the shock. How could this be possible?! I was sitting on the floor in the middle of some magic circle. People were crowded all around me...Arthur, Alfred, Feliciano, Ludwig, Yao....too many of them to count. I had been pulled back into the dimension of the first players?!

"W-What is going on?!" my head whipped around between everyone, panic setting in. "Why-?!"

"Bella!" Feliciano exclaimed, knocking me down as he threw his arms around me. "I was so worried! Are you okay?!"

"Y-Yeah...I'm fine..." I forced out. "But what am I doing here?"

A bunch of them began talking at once, making what they were saying pretty much incomprehensible.

"Enough!" Ludwig exclaimed. "Can't you see that she's confused?!"

"I brought you here," Arthur explained once everyone had stopped talking. "Ever since we sent you back to your own world, we've been checking in on you every so often to make sure you were doing alright. Earlier, we saw that you were with our counterparts. We were worried for your safety so we decided it was best to bring you back here."

"I... I wasn't in danger though..." I muttered.

"Of course you were!" Alfred shouted. "You have no idea how dangerous those guys are, dude!"

"I do know," I protested. "I've been there for a pretty long time now. Long enough to know that they aren't going to hurt me."

"You've been there for a long time...?" Kiku was confused, as were plenty of others. "(Name), please explain what you mean."

"It's a long story," I sighed, a bit aggravated. "We probably shouldn't talk while I'm sitting here on the floor and surrounded though."

"You're right," Arthur nodded. "Let's go upstairs. We can talk properly there."

It wasn't until then that I fully took in my surroundings. I was in Arthur's basement. He used this place for all of his magic and such. He led the way out and up the stairs, the rest of us following close behind. We ended up all gathering in his living room. Before I could do anything, Feliciano pulled me to sit between him and Lovino.

I had just been talking to everyone like this in Oliver's home...Sure, all of the arguing was annoying...but that didn't mean I wanted to leave it...Why had this happened...? I had to fight off my tears of frustration.
