~Akane's POV~

The little farmhouse was finally in sight now, but for some reason. It was lit up. There were even cars there.

I stopped and squinted my eyes, hoping to see something, Although, I only saw a a figure. A woman's figure.

"Get down." Cleo said pulling me down with her. The group following.

"My My, It isn't safe out here. You should you really watch out." I fell back to see the woman with a smile. It was actually a kinda creepy smile.

"Hello there. Welcome to the town. You best be gettin' inside." An old nice-looking man said with a smile. "We got plenty of food."

"What the hell is happening here?!" Germany growled. The man's face became serious. "Those big, nasty things showed up a while ago. They've been taking our people and animals."

"The farmhouse. It was all messy, How did you move in so quick?" Nii-san asked, barely showing any anger. At least he was still normal and not shaken up like the rest of us.

The woman smiled. "Oh that? My My, Darlin'. It still is a mess, we live up stairs. Made it our new home. Since our old one was taken over." She then sighed. "We lived in the woods, in a nice little cottage."

"Germany!" Cleo gasped looking over at shadows that ran in through trees. "Get inside. They're 'bout to go feastin'!" The man ran towards the door and opened it.

I ran in after him and so did everyone else. The farmhouse? It was still messy, as we were told. We followed the woman upstairs and she kindly introduced us to her family.

There were two little girls, The father of them, and the maid. "Wow! Their eyes!" The little girl ran up to me and smiled with joy. "They are so squinty!" She pulled back the corners of her eyes and giggled.

I gave Nii-san and Mi-chan a blank expression. "Have they ever met Asians, by any chance?"

Cleo tried to contain her laughter as the girls mimicked us. "Look! The coffee colored girl is laughing! and what's up with that weird headband?" "Oh Wow! Look sis! This man is so big! His hair looks funny."

The woman sighed. "You'll have to excuse them, They grew up here. Oh, What are your names?"

I bowed. "I'm Akane. This is Miyoko, Cleo, Kiku and Ludwig. It's nice to meet you all."

"Ah! I'm Marcey and This is my husband, Jim. This is my son, Jeremy and his two daughters, May and April. This is our maid. Just call her Maid."

We all looked at each other. "Sounds American..." "American? Well, duh! You are in America!"

"AMERICA?! What if..!" I looked at Nii-san and he shook his head. "America-san is in a meeting.."

"I see.." I sighed and the maid began to speak. "Y-Your rooms..This way.." We followed her. I got a pretty simple pink room. Nii-san and Germany had to share a room and Mi-chan and Cleo also got separate rooms.

I sat on my bed holding the recorder. I rubbed it between my fingers and sighed. What the hell is happening out there? I looked out the window. The moon was bright and it must've been 12 in the morning.

"Where are you..." I sighed, thinking of the simple Italian I had fallen for. The trees whipped in the wind as the shadows ran by them.

I began to tie up some bed sheets as my brain worked on it's own. I opened up the window and let them hang out, I tied it on the bed post and slipped the recorder in my pocket.

I then grabbed my hatchet and slipped it in a hold I had made for it on my thigh. "Italy-kun..." I climbed down the window and ran into the forest

My legs,trembling from the thoughts of horror that shifted in my brain, gave up on me for a little causing me to only walk deeper into the creature filled forest.

The trees towered above my tiny figure and then sudden leaf crunching broke the silence. I gasped and turned around to spot the snarling beast.

It was tall and black, it's eyes weren't visible and it's mouth was huge. When it growled, another mouth shot out of it.

I backed up and the awful feeling of fear spiraled through my being.

I took out my hatchet and watched as it jumped for me. I swung it, causing it to make a direct hit. It yelped and another two launched for me. "What is this?!"

I swung madly, hitting them and missing them. I jumped backwards and felt the ground crack.

Great. A cliff. I ran for them with less fear and more force slicing one's head off. The other grabbed my leg and swung me.

I fell to the ground hard,near the cliff and slowly got up. It roared and ran for me again, I quickly jumped away from it and hit its stomach with the blunt end of the hatchet.

It stumbled and fell back...while I felt my skin rip open and found it's claws dug into my stomach.

My eyes widened as we both fell to the bottom of the cliff.

~~Cleo's POV~~

"AKANE!" I burst up from my bed feeling dread and loss. My friend.

I ran into the hallway and hit open the door.

My heart beating faster and my eyes widening to see that my friend was gone.

The window was open and sheets where hanging out and swaying in the breeze.

"Oh no...B-Big Brother...I need your advice.." I looked down and then shook my head.

"JAPAN!" I screamed, waking the whole house.
