-Third's Pov-

Romano and France went into the basement to where the others are at.

Prussia: France! Romano!

They all went over to them until they saw Romano looking down with a broken expression and France with sad yet guilt ridden expression as well.

Prussia: Romano, what's wrong? Where's Spain?

Germany: Yes...Where is Spain?

Romano:....

China: Oh-no...

Prussia: No...D-Don't tell me!

France:...He's dead, mon ami.

Prussia: No...NEIN!!

Germany: Bruder, c-calm down!

Prussia glared at Germany.

Prussia: Don't you FUCKING dare tell me to calm down. Spain is dead! DEAD! As in, never coming back!

Germany: I know! I know that, but you shouldn't act reckless bruder, we must-!

Before he could say anything else, Prussia cut him off.

Prussia: Ya know what West. I don't give a fuck what you say anymore. Act reckless?! ACT RECKLESS?! ARE YOU SHITTING ME WEST?! IN CASE YOU FORGOT, WE'RE ALL GETTING KILLED AND HERE YOU ARE LECTURING ME ABOUT BEING RECKLESS?!

Germany:....(Bruder...) Gilbert...I...

Prussia: Just shut up.

Romano:...Please stop fighting...

They were all shock that Romano said something.

Japan: Romano-san?

Romano: -Sobs- Just stop...I-I can't take it anymore...

Guilt filled the room as everyone look at Romamo solemnly. He already lost his fratellino. Now he lost his lover...

Prussia:...Oh Romano...I'm sorry.

Romano cries in his chest as Prussia holds him.

All of them had it rough. Will they even survive when dawn arrives?

Germany: Look...Everyone...I know I don't have the right to speak but hear me out...We need to survive. We just have to wait here until help arrives.

France: You don't...sound too sure.

Germany: I'm pretty sure it'll happen. Right China?

China:...Oh...Um...Right, aru.

Prussia: Well I'm leaving! I had enough of this shit! It is so unawesome.

Romano: Same here. I'm not waiting anymore.

Germany: How?

Prussia: All we need is England's keys to cable car.

France: I don't think it's going to be that simple mon'ami.

Prussia: Why?

Japan: Because...None of us have England-san's cable keys, do we?

Nations:....

Prussia: Tch. That damn bastard must have them then...

Germany: Great. Now we're outta luck. Unless we find that Psycho, we're trapped until morning.

China: I don't know...It's possible.

Everyone looked at China.

Germany: What's possible?

China: Those things may have tooken him to the mines. I seen...some really horrible stuff down there...I think that's where they lives...

Germany: What...?

China didn't say nothing else as he stares in the direction of a map on the table. He scans it over and checks it out.

Germany: I was down there too. It was horrible.

Prussia: You was?

Germany nodded at his bruder.

Japan: Please explain Germany-san.

Germany: There was a cave in the fifties, and these miners got trapped down there. Only about a couple of them survived while the others wasn't so lucky.

Romano: What the hell...?

Germany: There was this reporter and I think he figured out what was going on here. He explained that there could've been some big-cover up.

Japan: Do you think the legend of the wendigo could be involved.

Germany: Ja...I believe so.

France: Mon Dieu...This mystery is really starting to clear up.

Prussia: Kesesesese~! As long as the rest of us stay put for now. We should be alright.

Germany: Ja. We all are safe for now.

Prussia nods until he looks over at China...Then he noticed something on his back.

Prussia's purplish-red eyes went wide staring at the mark.

He walks over to China and inspected it.

Prussia: Hey Y-Yao.

China: Yes, aru?

Prussia: W-What's that on your back?

China:.....Huh?

This gets everyone's attention as Germany walks over and inspects China's back.

Germany:.....Oh no...

China: W-What? What's gotten into you, aru?!

Germany:....It's a bite mark.

Everyone in the room eyes went wide. Panic and fear rushed through. They begin to back away from China.

China: It's nothing, aru!!!

Prussia: Oh My God! Oh My God! Oh My God! Oh My God! Verdamnit!!!

Romano: SHIT! SHIT! SHIT!

Japan: C-China-san...I believe that isn't nothing.

Germany: Sorry China. It's already confirmed that you been bit by a Wendigo.

China got furious. What's everyone's problem?

China: IT'S NOTHING! I KEEP TELLING YOU! J-JAPAN, YOU BELIEVE ME?! R-RIGHT!

Japan:....

China: Ai-yah! Not you too! F-France!

France:......

China: Oh come on! It's no big deal. S-So what if I got bitten, aru?

Germany: China. If you bitten by one of those things. You turn into one.

China:....

Germany sighs again. Desperate times calls for desperate measures.

Germany: I'm sorry China...I can't allow you to live.

Germany points his gun at China.

China: Ai-yah! N-No!

Prussia: WTH WEST?!

France: Mon ami! Let's be reasonable!

Romano: Potato Bastard! Don't do it!

Germany: Nein! If I let him live! He's turn into one of them and will kill us!

Japan: Germany-san please don't kill him! (Don't kill my Aniki!)

Germany: I'm sorry China...

China:-Crying- Please don't...I don't wanna die yet...

Germany points his gun again at China...

He pulls the trigger.

The gunshot echoed throughout the room.

And for the first time in so long, Japan screams.

Japan: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

China was dead. A bullet hole was seen through his eye.

France: SACRE BLEU!!!

Romano: AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!

Prussia: OH FUCK! FUCK WEST! YOU DAMN IDIOT!!!

Germany: What?! I had no choice!

Romano: You stupid potato bastard...who gave you the right to kill him. He pleaded for his life...Didn't he?

Germany: .....Doesn't matter.

Prussia: WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?!!!

Germany: SHUT UP BRUDER!!!

Prussia:.......

Germany: What matters...is that you all are safe now...

Japan:....

France:...

Romano:....

Prussia:....

Germany gulps. He fucked up. He was only trying to protect them. But now, he kind of looked like the bad guy now. Like he was the monster.

Germany: Japan...I'm...

Japan backed away from him in fear. Tears were also pouring from his eyes.

Germany: France...Romano...You know I didn't...

Romano: Don't come near me...

France:...

Germany:....B-Bruder?

Prussia:...I'm sorry West. But I can't trust you anymore...

Germany felt his heart broke into millions of pieces. All of this fuss because he wanted to protect everyone. But in his lifetime as a soldier, there were bound to be sacrifices. He had no choice but to kill China for the sake of others.

But then...Realization struck him...

Remembering Romano's words...

Who gave you the right to kill him?

No one...Even as a Nation, he had no right to kill China...

But what matters is the rest of them is safe.

But...It this keeps up. None of them will survive until dawn.

Espically...If they had lost faith in each other...
