AFTERMATH/ ON HOLD

chapter 1

America walked alone in the cold and gentle wind, the breeze lightly brushed against his oversized jacket he keeps on. The jacket was light and soft but slightly bigger then him, the hoodie had white and soft fluff on it, the color of the jacket was a worn out green with the American flag stitched on the left side of the arm piece.

He had been alone for years now, so walking alone wasnt to bad anymore. He has cried once in awhile but not as bad. He slowly walked near empty and broken buildings, the bulidings were old and cracked with some pieces missing. There was piles of dirt and rough looking rocks near it, he made his way to one buliding that he thought used to be a store, Walmart to be exact.He then had a painful and unbearable feeling in his stomach, he knew exactly what is was, he hadn't eaten in one week. He walked towards the building that had shattered and broken glass by the door, he stepped on the little pieces of glass and walked into the buliding. He  hoped there was food and water around that wasnt old or expired. He looked around the broken and old building when he spotted something......maple syrup.........

He felt his eyes water with a hot feeling and a urge to start sobbing. He looked at the bottle and slowly began to cry with the hot tears run down his face. He missed his little brother dearly, the day he lost him brought a painful but familiar feeling inside his chest.

~Flashback~

Bombs fell and guns fired. America was trying his best to protect Canada. Canada began to sob due to his fear, America and his military was in Canada's country trying to protect him at all cost. Half his military and his people were protecting their country for him so he could help his brother.

"B-Brother, i-im s-cared" Canada managed to say through his sobs

"Dont worry I'm here, I'll always be here" America said trying to soothe his brother

They were in bomb shelter, America was going to go back outside to fight by his military but Canada begged him to stay.

They then heard a violent and loud knock, America thought it was one of his soldiers but he had a feeling that told him not to open it, he then grabbed his gun and told Canada to go behind him. Canada was on his knees at the time, he slowly stood up and hid behind America, he wrapped his arms around Americas arm. Soon the bomb shelters door busted open, he was right....it wasnt his solider.......it was an 
North Korean solider.

Canada screamed while America raised his gun and pulled the trigger with no hesitation. The solider fell to ground holding his chest while three other north Korean soldiers came in. America brought his gun up again and shot two of the soldiers quickly.

The third one came up and punched America and tackled him to the ground. America threw the solider off of him, he then grabbed his gun but the soldier shot by his hand missing him by a inch, America pulled out a pistol from his army belt and shot the solider.

America looked at Canada who was terrified, he struggled to get up but managed to. He walked to Canada to give him a hug untill Canada screamed to look behind him. He turned around only to have North Korea hit him in the face with a shotgun causing America to  fall to the ground slowly losing  Conscience. But he was still awake enough to watch North Korea drag his brother by his collar, Canada screamed and cried for America. America started to cry but couldn't get up to help.
