Chapter 46

Italy muttered, "The next thing I knew, I was back in the world meeting hall. I had the journal in my hand... and I knew I'd gone back in time. And then I became the owner of this journal. The proof that I turned into Ryuuzu is that it was written on the previous journal that he was the only one who could go back in time."

China frowned, "So, you made a pact with it. It made time go back so that it could eat you..."

Italy shifted his feet, "The second time, I didn't want to come back here, and I tried to stop America. But it was too late; you were already headed here... In the end, no matter how many times I go back in time, I can't go back before I told america about this house. The nine of us always come here. Even if groups change. Always. So that's what the mmemories of coming here with different people are all about. We kept coming here in various patterns. That's right. But in the second time loop, I couldn't save England, China, or America, and I survived again."

Japan tilted his head, "What?!"

Italy went on, "So, once again..."

America interrupted him "Stop, stop! Hold on. In the second time loop, er... I did survive, didn't I?"

Italy blinked, "What?!"

Japan nodded, "Yes, it is just as America said. It is difficult for me to say it, but... Italy, you were the only one who... In that room right behind you."

"I'm the only one who died? what? That's impossible..." Italy shook his head.

England hummed, "Maybe you're just confused due to going through that too many times?"

Italy shifted once more, "The second time wasn't the same as the first time, but I still remember it perfectly. Besides, if I died, who made time go back?"

Russia closed his eyes in thought, "Ah, yes, Italy is the only one who can go back in time. That wouldn't fit...or would it?"

"But we saw it when we broke that clock!" Japan explained, "Even Italy said in all certainly that it was the second time."

"I did?" Italy asked, "There were definitely several past times I opened up to you like I just did now, but the... second time... Where was that clock?"

"Remember there was a box in that cell?" America answered, "The clock was in that box. Along with that letter for you."

Confused Italy gave them a look, "There was something inside that box?!"

England nodded, "It looks like I'm the one who sealed it. It was my past self who sealed it, to be exact."

Spain put his hand on Italy's shoulder, "Ita, maybe you haven't got all of your memories back yet? And that's why you remember things differently?

"Yeah, we can't expect you to remember everything all of a sudden," added Canada, "But we get the gist of it!"

"To sum it up, we died the first time around, and Italy went back in time right?" France put in, "And Italy is the only one who can keep going back until all of us can get out."

Japan frowned and looked down, but he didn't say anything. But he didn't have too, I stared at him, knowing the exact words going through his head.

Italy lowered his head slightly, "Japan? You're frowning..."

"Italy," Japan looked back up, "how do you go back in time?"

Italy gave a small smile, "Er, well, there's a clock somewhere in this house. A really huge one. All I have to do is rewind it."

"Is that big clock in a different place each time?" Japan questioned.

"Yeah, that's right," The auburn eyed male confirmed, "The first time around, it moved so that I could escape, but whenever someone fell, I would go after it and it would be in a different place. Sadly, it's the one sure way to escape."
