THE DISCOVERY A fundamentally lonesome person, Russia believed he could survive the Academy all on his own but his assumptions were quickly torn down as the Awakening sessions began. With the discoveries of latent gifts and the arrival of a certain someone, Russia is forced to accept his new circumstances and forge the most unlikely of bonds. EARTHBOUND As the Ranking Tournament looms over their shoulders, a sinister plot slowly unfurls, hoping to plunge their fragile but peaceful world into a new age. When the Gateway is sabotaged, the doubtful duo makes their way to the human realm to hone their Awakenings, only to find themselves entangled in something far more treacherous. Buried secrets slowly reveal themselves in the worst ways possible as Russia and America come face to face with their greatest challenge yet. THE RANKING With a crisis averted and new clues surfacing, all seems to be going smoothly, right on time for the arrival of the most important event of a countryhuman's life, the quadrennial Ranking Tournament. As the entire continent gathers together to watch the games, new friends and foes alike are introduced, each more powerful than the last. Resounding clashes of hopes and dreams are nothing but abundant but even these brilliant sparks cannot hide the unspoken secrets any longer. The games grind to a halt at the declaration of war, a promise to recreate the world. ??? to be continued? FIRST WATTPAD EVER!
