It's been only a week now and we got a transmission from Finland's spies!They sent a recording of a phone call.

One was my bosses voice for sure,buthe other had a voice modifier,so it couldn't be identified.

I played it on speaker so me and Russia could listen to it.My boss referred to this other person as 'Marker' not to many hints on who that is.

They talked about just military tanks for most of the time,but eventually they
started talking no,wrong word.

My boss received orders from this Marker person.

They were to keep rounding up civilians and to keep them in the capital until further orders.

"Those freaking bastards....."I clenched my teeth and then took a deep breath.

"So we go to the capital da?"

"Yeah,I'll lead us to it."

Russia got all of the troops together and we started to march out way toward the capital.It was going to be some time before we got there.When we were marching I saw Latvia and Lithuania coming to the camp in a jeep but I didn't react.

We had gotten quite far away when we saw a tank shell hit near us.

"EVERYONE COVER!"

We all ran for the forest and stayed there until the tanks came through.When they were in sight,I sent two out there to plant grenades in the tanks and run back.They did,blowing up two of the tanks.

That's when the battle started.

The tanks were probably going to our base so se had to stop them at all costs.

Russia did the command to fire.

"ОГОНЬ!"

We were shooting back and forth and then Russia said for me and half the troops to go on.

"We shall hold them off here da.Go forward."It was hard to hear him from all the bullets going by, but I understood.

I took half of them deeper into the forest and made it to the outskirts of the capital.There were guards surrounding the entrance,so I had a few sharpshooters pick some off.

Knowing how my troops usually react,they called for back up and started shooting into the forest.

"Everyone get down!"I half yelled and whispered.

Then a grenade rolled in front of me.

Panicking,I threw it at the guards,but it blew up midair.

This alarmed them and they started shooting into the bushes.

Then I heard one of the troops yell something and about 3/4 of them stood up with him.

"Ввернуть его торопить вход!"

I asked the person next to me what it meant.

"He said screw it let's rush the entrance.Im going to stay here on this one."

I watched in horror as most of my troops charged toward the entrance of the capital,being trigger happy.I tried calling back but the guy next to me put a hand on my shoulder and shook his head no.

"Let them be."

"We should retreat for now.RETREAT!"

They all continued to fight,mindlessly and the 1/4 of the troops I was left with retreated with me.It felt horrible leaving behind troops and I wish them the best of luck.

I made my way back to where Russia and his troops where they were still fighting.We helped out but Russia told me to check in with the camp for him.

His voice was trembling when he said it and practically pleaded for me but to go.

So I went,alone,to the camp through the forest,because going out in the open was too dangerous.

"I hope some troops didn't get past us...."

I picked up the pace,placing my gun on my shoulder.

When I got there,it looked like it was deserted.There were blood splatters on the tents and guns hanging around everywhere.

I went in the main tent to see two people under the table shaking.

"Latvia!Lithuania!"

They had their arms around each other huddled under the table.When I said their names,Latvia looked at me with these ghostly eyes,like he wasn't alive.

I crouched down and Lithuania put a hand on me,tearing up.

I was shaking,raising my hand out to him to wipe away the tears.

Then Latvia leapt out and hugged me.

"(C/N)....."

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Ever since that day when I found them,it's been a month or so.This 'little' Civil war has lasted much longer than any of us expected.

One day the Baltics,Russia,Finland, and I had a meeting.

"How has the enemy lasted this long?This is crazy!"Said Finland leaning back on his chair.

"Yeah it is.....do you think they have someone supporting them?"Said Estonia easing his hand.

"Good thinking.But who would support my boss?"

"Well we can start with this Marker person da?"

"Yeah but every time this person had their voice modified."

"My spies tried getting rid of the voice modifications,but when they did the voice was still modified somehow."

"Well here (C/N),who do you know?"Said Estonia pointing at me again.

"Besides you guys,my brother Cuba and Canada."

They all sighed because Canada would never do something like this....right?And my brother wouldn't either,he's broke.

"Wait how do you know Canada?"Asked Latvia pondering on the subject.

"Well my brother used to hit him because we thought he was America."

"Poor guy....wait what about America?"

"I doubt it."

"Why is that?"

"America is too stupid to do voice modifications da?"

Some sweat dropped because I know he hates America with a passion it that's no reason to target him.

When I saw the dark purple aurora start rising I decided to change the topic a little.

"So Finland,have been able to find out where these phone calls are taking place?"

"Well we got one,and it came from the capital,but we can't locate where it's going.This Marker guy thought of everything!"

"Yeah that's useless we already know my boss is hiding in the capital like a coward."

The meeting ended and Russia offered to drive me back to the house.I declined politely I don't want another raid to go down and I'm not there.

Latvia stayed behind to finish giving out supplies to the soldiers.

When he was done,I was just in the commanders tent reviewing some battle plans.

"Ok now we got to figure out,how to attack next."

I pulled out a map that had the last few battles scribbled on it and made a plan for tomorrow.

"Hey (C/N)?Can I talk to you?"

It was Latvia,but I don't know why he's still here.He finished didn't he.

"Yeah what's up?"

"Well...I just came to check on you.Its getting late you should be sleeping."

"Well yeah but I'll be fine."

"I want to make sure your ok (C/N).I had a civil war too so I know what it's like...."

"Really though don't worry about me.You staying hear?"

"Yeah...."

"It's the tent next to this one ok?Hope you get a good rest!"

"Ok as long as you are ok then I'm ok."

He left the tent and I lowered my head fighting back tears.I knew I wasn't ok,and he realized it too.

On the inside I was dying but I can't show that.I can't show that weakness to them,I have to keep it to myself.Its my problem I can deal with it right?

Latvia's POV

Through the shadow of the tent I saw (C/N) lower her head,I felt bad for her.I wanted to say something but I stopped myself.

I shouldn't intervene with her problems,even though I kind of am right now.

I mean like I care about her,right?

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

So that's another on in the bag!What do you think of Latvia second guessing himself?Or Your country's internal struggle?How about WHO THE FUCK IS MARKER?In good time.....
