♡The Black Swan♡ (A RusGer Fanfic)

Chapter 42

( Germany's POV)

Germany followed Russia down the sidewalk, supposedly to where America lived. It was quite the walk, as they had to go out of their neighborhood and past several others. It took at least 15 minutes to get there.

While they were on their way, Germany noticed several things about the place where America lived. It smelled strongly of burning... something. It wasn't an awful neighborhood, but it gave Germany the eerie feeling that he was being watched. He frequently looked over his shoulders, seeing if anyone was following them.

It was quiet like their neighborhood as well, but this silence wasn't peaceful. It was the kind of silence that followed a tragedy or fight. It was almost as if there was something somewhere, patiently waiting to attack.

Germany didn't realize that Russia had been trying to talk to him until Russia stole his glasses.

" Hey, what was that for?" Germany said, annoyed.

" I've been trying to talk to you, but you weren't responding."

"Oh. Sorry..."

" It's alright. Are you okay?"

" ...Do you feel like someone's watching us?"

" No...why?"

" I don't know... but can I have my glasses back, bitte?

" Okay."

     Through his blurred vision, Germany could see Russia sticking his tongue out at him. He stuck his tongue out as well, using one hand to hold the box the spider was in and using the other to retrieve his glasses. He suddenly felt the urge to check on the spider. He looked in the box and saw that she was just fine. She wasn't moving around too much, but she adjusted herself to be comfortable every now and then.

     Germany was still apprehensive. He couldn't shake off the feeling that they were being watched. He unintentionally began walking faster, and before he knew it he was walking side -by- side with Russia.

" Geez, Ger," Russia said. " When did you start walking so fast?"

" I don't know, I just did."

"You scared of something?"

" No... it's just that.. this neighborhood is giving me bad vibes."

" What do you mean?" 

" I feel like... we're being watched.."

     Russia stopped dead in his tracks. Germany stopped as well, trying to listen for any signs of life. At first, there was absolute silence.

Then he heard a twig snap.

     Germany whirled around. In the distance, he could see 2 silhouettes. They were coming towards him and Russia.

And they were coming at them fast.

     Germany started to run. He was trying not to shake the spider up too much, but his fear got the best of him. He didn't know who the two countries were, but he didn't want to stick around to find out.

" Germany, wait!" Russia yelled.

     Germany heard him and turned around. Russia wasn't running. He hadn't even moved. Germany ran back to him.

" Why did you run away?" Russia asked when Germany reached him.

" We were being followed!-"

" Yeah, by Ukraine and Canada."

      Embarrassed, Germany looked and saw that it was, indeed, Ukraine and Canada who had been following them. Canada gave him a wave, which he returned. Ukraine just smiled and said nothing.
