First of all, chapter 26 was edited a bit. Mostly the same, but Y/N's dutch situation is different. Second, above is a quick layout of the field area, mind you everything is on a much bigger scale than in the drawing~! (So sorry for the badly drawn doors XD Everything else is so clean and then BAM squiggle squiggle.)

Looking up you saw your friend from back home, Victor, running up to you. He wasn't a relatively mean looking man, but he was certainly intimidating in stature, as he was quite tall. He was slightly tan with curly plum-brown hair and hazel brown eyes. He always smiled and was a cheerful person in general.

"Y/N!" He called out again, his voice was accented with a bit of a Belvisidan accent (extremely similar to a Russian accent, but a lot more subtle).

"Victor?!" You stood up, he immediately engulfed you in a large hug. "What are you doing here?"

"Are you not happy to see me?" He pulled back and smiled at you, holding your upper arms and looking you over like that one aunt at a family reunion does.

"Of course I am, it's just-"

"A surprise? I know, that's what I was going for!" He released you from his grip. "So, what are you doing out here, all alone. Skipping class~?" He teased.

"Of course not, it's lunch and I just left the lunch hall. What, is lunch mandatory now?" You lightly punched his shoulder. You felt happy to see your old friend after so long, it had been a few years since you got to see him in person, he was like the older brother you never had, he even called you 'little sister' sometimes, even though you were much older than him. You felt like you could be yourself and not be judged, it was freeing. 'It's gonna hurt when he's...gone.'

"No, I just never thought miss goody-two-shoes would have the guts to leave even a non mandatory class." He retorted, he slung an arm over your shoulder. "So, what's next on your agenda?"

"Gym class in..." You checked your watch, "One minute." You looked up at him, both of you had panicked faces. Even though he teased you about being a goody-two-shoes, it's not like he was a huge rule breaker. In fact, he was probably just as goody-two-shoes as you.

"Run." You both whispered, simultaneously. You snatched up your bag and bolted in the entrance, Victor following close behind.

As you guys ran through the halls towards the gym you were both laughing like crazy[2]. You busted into the gym, giggling like children. Suddenly, you both realized what you just did. Looking out into the crowd of countries you saw many shocked faces, looking at the teacher, he looked irritated as he stuffed a brownie in his face. Your smile dropped as you suddenly felt embarrassed. Composing yourself you muttered a sorry out.

"I should go..." Victor whispered to you.

"Okay, I'm gonna be in the field in the back." You whispered back. "Brash fuhr mie?"

[Belvisidan (pronounced 'brash-fur-my' but with a cool accent): Break in for me?]

"You know it." He smiled brightly. He looked back up to the rest of the countries, scanning them--mostly the male ones. He looked back at you. "They're really hot." He whispered as he walked out. How embarrassing, at least the rest of the people in the gymnasium couldn't hear you.

---

As the rest of the countries watched you converse with your male friend, a few felt a bit jealous--mostly the ones who actually knew you. Who is he? Why were you laughing with him?

---

You shifted your weight from one foot to the other: a nervous tic you picked up from your grandfather. You looked at the coach.

"You're late, Levitra- You know what, just go..." He said tiredly, gesturing to the rest of your peers.

Nodding you rushed to the back of the crowd, you ended up next to a man with a bandaid on his nose and a koala.

"G'day, mate!" He said to you as the coach began to give a speech about 'taking care of yourself' and 'eating healthy'. You're one to talk, brownie man. "That was quite the entrance you had there!" The koala on his shoulder turned to you nodding in agreement with its owner.

"Oh.. Right, sorry." You responded.

"No need to be sorry, it was a nice break from the coach's boring ol' speeches." He chuckled.

Once everyone was ready and in their uniforms the coach once more asked you to line up and split up, this time you went to the right: the fields. Besides, no doubt that Russia was going to be at the rink.

As you walked through the doors you immediately took in a sharp breath. Holy cow it was a beautiful sight! A few acres of land behind the school, grassy green and tree free! There was a European football (or American Soccer) field, an American football field, a small garden, and at the very back a small area of grass where some kids were playing and some nations relaxing. The entire area was closed in by a low wooden fence, it was white with paint peeling. How secure. Beyond that fence there was a vast amount of trees. I mean, you knew that World Academy was in the middle of nowhere in Canada[1] (odd place but okay) but this was surreal.

Looking around at the actual people in around you saw that while there were a few who actually played sports, most were just chilling out in shady spots next to the building or at the very back end, towards the fence.

"Boo."

1. World academy has had many different locations, each time they had to move and rebuild for a different reason. The first world academy was built in central Europe, specifically Germany. For a while before that, no academy existed, it was some of the ancient's idea to build a new school for young countries to learn about being a country (over time subjects such as Political Science and Law have been discarded, it was now basically a normal high school).

The original academy survived WWI, but during WWII they had to relocate. They then went to Ecuador, since Ecuador was considered 'the country in the middle of the world'. During that time, not many countries attended since they were busy rebuilding their societies after WWII. The building went into disrepair and so they decided to rebuild in a more appealing place: America. In America, the academy was bustling, but some human high school students found the place and tried to break in. Eventually, after deciding that America was not a safe place, they moved the school to the middle of a forest in Canada. The school has been there ever since. (With each location, the building has become bigger)

2. This may seem OOC for Belvisida, but when with someone she knows and trusts she can become very silly and cheerful. She may be a bit brash at times with certain people *cough* Victor *cough*, but she is still a logical and polite person no matter who she's with.
