Chapter #20

Indonesia's P.O.V

I wake up and see that everybody is still asleep besides China, which is weird because isn't he supposed to be sleepy? I mean I actually woke up before the others did so that's a second thing. I crawl to China, who is staring blankly at the Funeral House, and tap him on his shoulder. In response he was startled. "Jeez, it's just me.", I said as I backed off a little from him.

"Sorry. i'm just a little 'frightened'.", China said.

"I mean I get it if you're afraid of the dark, but you don't have to be such pushover.", I sighed.

"Forget that. Since you're the only one awake besides me, can i tell you something?", he said, nervously.

"It's not like I have anything to do, anyways."

"Okay. So last night, I think I saw Philip met up with someone inside a bunker, somewhere behind the Funeral House."

"Wait... So you're saying that Philip, who is clearly injured, just got up in the middle of the night and walked all the way to the back of the Funeral House and met up with someone?", I asked skeptically.

"Yes! I swear I am telling the truth!", China exclaimed, quietly so that the others wouldn't here him.

I don't really believe him, obviously. Like come on, Philip can't ACTUALLY do that, right? If he was right, then we wouldn't still be here. But then again... Idea! "If you're telling me the truth, then show me where the bunker is."

"Deal."

Nobody's P.O.V

Indo followed China to the back of the Funeral House where the bunker was. "How come Philip never told anyone about this bunker?", Indo asked.

"I mean, maybe because it's just a bunker. Like, how is talking about a bunker supposed to excite a conversation? If you think about it, it's actually sad. 'Oh yeah, there's bunker behind the Funeral House where my dead family are buried!'", China shrugged. "Anyways, there's a lock in front of the doors, so we can't get inside,which means he should have had a key."

"Okay, I believe you now, but what would Philip possibly be doing in there?", Indo questioned.

"I have no idea.", China sighed in disappointment. After a few seconds of silence, an idea popped in China's mind. "What if Philip planned this? This whole 'thing'" This left Indo slightly phased.

"No, I know him very well and I know that he would never do this, especially to Malay and me.", Indo said, trying to persuade China that Philip wouldn't do that.

"But think about it Indo. Remember when America, Spain, Japan, and me were all shot by that one person? You and Malay weren't shot, and didn't you say that you knew Philip wouldn't want to hurt you and Malay? Do you see where this is going?", China explained.

"Yeah, but if Philip planned this then how come he came back injured?"

"Actually, how did he even 'come' back?", China asked.

Indo sighed. "Long story short, Ame and me found a knife and note, it said come back and you get your friend back. We thought that that 'friend' was Spain but it was Philip instead."

"Do you still have that knife though?"

Indo's face lit up as he searched his pockets. He took out the same blood-stained knife that he and America had found before. He gave it to China so that he could examine it. "Do you know whose blood is this by any chance?", China asked as he stared at the blade.

"No. But it could be Philip's? I mean it could have been the knife that caused his injuries...", Indo suggested.

Out of nowhere, Indo and China hear a clapping sound. They both turn around to reveal Philip slowly clapping and smirking at the two. "That's remarkable that you managed to find out so fast. I thought that it would take a little longer, but at least it cuts of some of my work.", he smirked.

"Why are you doing this to us, Philip?! I thought you're our friends!", China said.

"What Indo said was right. I wouldn't hurt him or Malay, just you and the others. I'm simply just trying to get my revenge that's all."

"By locking us up in where your whole family is buried, slowly kidnapping us, torturing us, while you manipulate us the others that you're the innocent one?!", China exclaimed

"Mm... basically. Anywaysv, I can't let you tell the others so I have to do this. Sorry Indo!", Philip said. Before Indo and China could understand what he meant, they felt a hard pain in the back of their heads and fell onto the ground. Behind them was Martial who knocked out the two.

"Jeez, I wonder when Del will come back with the food.", Martial said as he picked up Indo and China by wrapping the arms around his shoulder. "Aren't you going to help me?", Martial asked.

"Sorry Kuya, I gotta go back to the others before they find out too.", Philip said before leaving his, obviously, struggling brother as he attempted to carry the two into the bunker.

So I go a question for you guys,
