Title: Family Ties

Characters (in this chapter): WDF plus another surprise. <3

Rating: 12

Warnings: The British isles sibs are big fat hypocrites when they say America is trigger happy.

Summary: Uh, I need to be banned from the kink meme or monsters like this happen? Essentially, Scotland leaves the UK, which gives Northern Ireland an excuse to up and out as well, which leaves England and Wales all alone. Oh yeah, and this somehow leads to World War Three.

"So, the kinetic hand-held incendiaries project is going smoothly, then?" England asked, regrouped at the base and looking quite miffed that he'd been dragged back from the ocean for a mere status update. The "war room", as America insisted it was called, was covered in maps and diagrams and latest models for weapons and planes and tanks.

"If you mean the Pocket-Sun-Bombs, then yes." Mexico fiddled with a braid of hers, pointing out the charts. "Trust Al's people to come up with a way to physically hold fire and throw it at people."

"Doesn't sound too bad to me." Ireland added, reading the information Egypt had sent them from the Middle East. "I hear it superheats the air around it to cook everyone nearby and blow off doors and that lark."

"To 300 degrees." Mexico confirmed. "Celsius."

Wales entered, laptop under one arm. "I think we have something to combat those silent guns." He was smiling, which of course prompted everyone to lean in to peer at his laptop screen when he placed it on the table.

Ireland tilted her head at the picture. "I see a tank, Darren."

"Well done, you have working eyes." England snarked absently, making his sister hit him on the shoulder. "What's different about it? They'll have anti-tank guns being equipped with the true-silencers any day now, and that's with out intel on a two-week lag."

Wales smiled triumphantly, mousing over to an .avi file. "Watch this."

The same tank as earlier trundled through a field in Shropshire. The camera panned over to show an anti-tank gun, ready to fire. Turning back to the tank, it only took two seconds for the sharpshooter to fire, sending bullets whizzing towards the expensive machinery.

They all abruptly turned in different directions, either shooting to the side or the air or getting stuck in the ground. The image cut to show the bullet holes in the floor a whole 5 feet from the edge of the tank.

An awed silence descended on the room.

"Was that a forcefield?!" María squealed, shock morphing into excitement.

"Holy shit." England gaped, running a hand through his hair and straightening. "Holy shit!"

Ireland gave a delighted sort of squeak, and replayed the video to watch it again. "Dar, you are my new favourite brother until North wakes up."

"Thanks, I try." Wales grinned.

Gravel crunched on the driveway outside, Canada and America's Jeep pulling up. Maria jumped up and ran out of the room and into the hall, leaving the rest to congratulate Wales.

"I am going to buy you all the pints you can drink." England promised, beaming. "And then some! I'll swear off making sheep jokes for the next one hundred years!"

Wales folded his arms. "Two hundred."

England frowned slightly. "One-Fifty."

"One-sixty."

"... done."

The North American trio re-entered the room with faces so solemn that it crushed the atmosphere instantly. Kumajiro wandered in from the hallway where it had been waiting for Canada, and the Nation picked him up and buried his face in his fur for comfort. America's glasses reflected the light so the expression in his eyes was hidden. The downturn of his lips was hint enough. England felt something heavy catch in his throat.

"What's... what's wrong?" he asked. Alfred drew in a deep breath through his nose.

"We've got good news and... bad news. Really bad news." His hand went self-consciously to his head injury. "The good news is that we're holding the lines up in Alaska. NWO's not advancing any further onto my land."

Wales looked wary of what came next. "Yes... and what's the bad news."

America clenched his fists. Canada spoke instead. "We... we saw Scotland and France."

A beat. "Why's that bad?" Aine asked. "Did they see you?"

Matthew shook his head. "No, but... they've done something horrible to them." Kumajiro was starting to look quite uncomfortable with how tight he was being held. "There were... burns, all around France's neck and probably more underneath his clothes. He looked in pain when he moved."

"And with Scotland," America finally spoke, face unusually dark. "the lights are on, but nobody's home." He tapped his head pointedly, then hissed when he hit his injury. The facts of the mission were rattled off next, England sinking into a chair once the full description of what had happened to the other Nations was described. Ireland was biting her thumbnail, eyes glaring hate into space. Wales was gripping the edge of the conference table. Canada had sat heavily on another chair, Mexico prying his hands off the poor polar bear before he choked him.

"... France must have been in his senses, at least, from how he was acting." America finished up. "He seemed to be directing Scotland away from us. I think he could see Canada."

England's expression was stony. "This isn't like what he did to North. It's different. North's lucid usually, and acts different when he's, for lack of a better word, possessed." He made a frustrated sort of growl. "I wish we could get our satellites over them to see what the hell's going on. I don't want my people crossing the boarder just in case it sparks something."

"Now what..." Wales murmured. America shrugged helplessly.

"We keep going, I guess. But with China on Russia's side and France most definitely being forced to use his nukes if Russia so wishes, we're outnumbered again."

"Devo eu falar agora?"

"Está ligada já, conversa!"

The WDF turned to look at the computer screen of Wales' laptop curiously.

"Olá!" Portugal smiled, waving in greeting. Brazil peered over his shoulder at the rest of them. "Can you hear me? Are you sure it's on, Brazil?"

"Ga-Gab-?!" England stuttered, eyes wide. Portugal waved.

"Ah, you are there!" he grinned toothily. "So cute when you're flustered." This comment did nothing to help the slight blush in England's cheeks. "So, I heard you needed back up?"

Notes:
- Kinetic hand-held incendiaries - I wish I was kidding.
- Forcefields - There is actually a project being developed by the British Ministry of Defense to create tanks with an EMP shield or the like. Since I garnered this information from my older cousin (I have a very military family. >>) I have no idea if it's accurate or if he's just messing with me for shits and giggles, but going by Rule of Cool and the fact that it's been proved war forces amazing leaps forward in technology, yes, forcefields.
- Comparing to his brother's, Port's empire wasn't exactly huge. However, Brazil has a population of 192,728,000. That is more than Russia. Sooo yeah.
- Oh yeah, and for those unaware of how hard I ship England and Port (curse you Cande) allow me to show you why. Longest lasting marriage, hahaha. Yes I know the Auld Alliance was earlier sftu they had a break up period.
- Also, I'm aware that it's extremely late to add this now, and I will go back and add it to the previous chapters too, but Aine's name is pronounced "Awn-ye". Like Anya with an Irish accent. Arthur probably butchers the pronunciation no end.

You're gonna have to plug your ears again, methinks. For an entirely different reason.
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!
PORT-PORRRRRTTTTT! ♥♥♥

And holy shit that stuff is cool. Hand-held fire! I love you, America! And holy crapola, force fields. I do hope I live to see the day.

Bloody hell you're fast.

*unplugs ears again* I somehow knew that Port would get this reaction. <3

It is cool. This is why I find research fun; because I find things like this! Mini-suns! They go boom and create heat bursts too! I'd totally abuse a force field if I had one. Like put it next to an Easter egg and repel everyone's hands.

It's Portugal. Of course he would!

And they bounce around too! That is amazing. I want one. *bit of a pyromaniac*

Which is why it would be eternally frustrating! MWAHAHAHAHAH!

It's good to be a geek America would say. You get to invent and then play with all the awesome (and most of the time completely destructive) toys. :-)

Seriously love, love, love.

DAMNIT I WASN'T FIRST.

*grumbles*

Woohoo, the gang is all back together. It's like the reunion at the end of Scooby Doo after everyone splits up. Except there's no old man in a mask wielding a chain saw. o_O

Well, Russia could always put on a mask and grab a chainsaw, I suppose.

YAY PORTUGAL AND BRAZIIIIIIL! Nope, Portugal's empire was nowhere near as large as Spain's, but he ended up with somewhat better relations with Brazil than Spain had with most of its colonies. Didn't Portugal's royal family live there once upon a time? Or something. My knowledge of Portuguese history is much worse than my knowledge of Spain's relations with Hispanoamerica.

So glad to see another England x Portugal shipper. :3

Hello, I know you don't know who I am <3 But I started following this fanfic the last month and GOD! Can I say that this is just the best thing in the whole world appart of Hetalia itself ;w;?

You made me love Wales like you don't know <3 and seriously, I just can't help but stalking daily your lj account (ok no, but I want more drama) <3

Anyway, I'm such a lazy girl and I just started commenting because OMG BRASIIIIIIL <333 And well, I read in a past chapter that you were thinking about writing with the south american guys. Well, I'm from Peru and since I'm in love with your fic and all, I wanted to tell you that if you're going to write something with them and need help with that, I'll be more than glad helping you <3!

I really love your fic and I'm hoping to see more of it! It's wonderful, seriously! And in this chapter I went all "AKJSHAAJSFRAAAANCE" When I read that he saw Canada and still lead Scotland away from him ;__;

Keep being awesome <3!

FIRST OF ALL I HAVE YOUR PRESENT. It's not as great as it could be considering it was done at 1am in the morning, plus I took the liberty of being a bit of a sap (and forgetting the colours of the uniforms if there even were any orz), but ;ldfkdlf Scotland, France and Portugal? YOU'RE SPOILING ME. ;A; MOAR PLZ.

Oh man just the forcefields and the kinetic hand-bombs and whatever and ;sdlfkf WOW. SEE THIS IS WHY I ALWAYS CHEER FOR THE ALLIES. \o/ They have all the cool toys. D:

I s;ldfk'ed over Scotland again omg. I shouldn't love his crazy but fff. I DO. ;A; And eeeeeee Brazil and Portugal ahaha I loved that entrance. It was like a kid helping his dad use all that confounded technology. So cool Port. XD SO MUCH FOR NEUTRALITY (again). He must have escaped with the armada when Spain wasn't looking, I mean. Oh god, he's probably flipping his shit now that Port's gone to help England. |D

Okay, point taken, Portugal wasn't QUITE as yandere as Spain, but all that blue space on that map? He totally discovered all of that and that's pretty badass in itself. He's such a water baby lol no wonder England loves him. AND STOP BLAMING ME FOR POINTING OUT HISTORICAL FACTS. I'm not sorry! Best marriage ever ftw SHIP IT HARDER And aww the Auld Alliance is only 100 years older come on. It's close! XD

I thought "Aine" was pronounced "Anne" which shows how much I know sob. Also fuck yeah Brazil come on be badass! \o/ I can't wait to see what Port's going to do now, omg omg aaaah. Lucky England. So deredere. XD

He could. But that would be like my April Fools thing, and therefore... predictable, and I hate being predictable.

WOOOOOOO He'd bring the African colonies along but they told him to gtfo with the rest of the world so yeah. Brazil is totally enough. LOOK LOOK I INCLUDED SOUTH AMERICA.

God I ship it with the burning of a thousand sinking armadas.

I blame this Cracked.com article coming up on the day when I wrote this. I was all "hmm, can't have the NWO have all the cool toys. Must think of counter toys for the WDF..." and bing!

You're not alone with your strange love of crazy!Scotland. Just. Yessssss. Hahaha Port you're such a dad wondering how this confounded technology works. Lol stop reading into the future I was gonna put exactly how hard he's flipped shit into the next chapter.

D'awww they're both such sailors and you know what they say about the navy. *wiggles eyebrows* NO I WILL NOT STOP BLAMING YOU. >[ YOU MAKE IT HARDER FOR ME TO WATCH THE NEWS WITHOUT GIGGLING. I don't think I can, I'll combust! Clooooose. >>

*waves* nice to meet you! akskfd I-I'm so flattered, thank you! 0////0

Wales is so lovable, for all the jokes his family makes about him. I don't mind stalkers. I do it to other people so.

AHHH HELLO! Yes I've been trying to get them in for a while now. Ooooh, Peru, so far away! I do need a lot of help on political relations in South America because English schools are rubbish when it comes to politics outside of Europe. I thiiiink I included Peru in a little drabble of mine, so can you tell me what you think of him so far? (No, he's not always in a state of screaming terror, but... yeah.)

Ahhhh France still wuvs his ex-colony~ to save him from crazy!Scot!

I'll try my best~!

;sldkff omg that article. That's so scary. And lol it's so true, why do the bad guys get to have all the fun? :|a

Thank god, I was beginning to feel a little strange over it. But sdkjf;l that crazy, inner psycho-savage just....so much yes. ;; Such a fail dad. His and England's families combined make the fail so potent it's great. HA, I AM TOTALLY PSYCHIC. I KNOW SPAIN'S PASSIONATE HEART. And his brother complex haha BDb England would be so smug orz.

Oh I do know what they say, I do. Oh Captain Kirkland. Take your saucy wench below deck already geez. BD THE NEWS IS OBVS THE EQUIVALENT TO GOSSIP MAGAZINES FOR NATIONS. And their relationship is so old hat only the kids didn't see it coming. XD Their love burns that strongly /shot I bet France and England bicker over whose relationship lasted longer orz.

<3 No problem.

Bawwwwwww. I ended up listening to the song (Found a good quality version on YouTube yay 8D) and now I'm imagining France singing this alone in a cell while holding unconscious Scotland. AND IT'S WAY TOO EASY TO IMAGINE.

ffffff it's such a baawwwww and pretty song. So nice to see a good quality version too yay~ \o/

O-OMG THIS. THIIIIS. The angst. There is clearly not enough angst where France is the one concerned over Scotland and not the other way around. :|a AND THAT IMAGE. IT'S WAY TOO CLEAR orz. fff now I have to draw that too bawww. ;A;

I WAS JUST ABOUT TO ASK WHEN ARE WE GOING TO SEE PORTUGAL. I didn't even expect Brazil too. *o* Hee~♥
S-sob, damn you guys for making me break my loyalty to FrUK. >__>;; Okay, I can ship Eng/Port and Fra/Scot a LITTLE but I won't abandon FrUK.

The timing was perfect too. Right when it seems like NWO is gaining the advance. And since it took them a while to join, I suspect they have been preparing.

Those fire thingies. Scare the shit out of me. *shudder* o_o *ridiculously afraid of fire and extreme heat* It's cool though, that you have so much info about military stuff, it's handy with this kinda fic. And Rule of Cool is totally accepted. Force fields are pretty damn cool. Even though I have no idea how it'd work, lol. Electromagnetism?

Probably electromagnetism. I'm no tech whizz, idk. It just works. XD

dfkgjhdgjkh Eep that icon. *flails*

And I'm not really that loyal either. |D;; But FrUK is like my absolute favourite in this fandom and I suppose I don't mind many other pairings with them because I feel like they are just secondary pairings but I'm finding I'm starting to ship EngPort and FraScot AS MUCH as FrUK and that confuses meeee~ oh no.

AKSLJDJ and you draw amazing art ffffff. we go well together, si? Black is also very slimming <3 *ONE DRABBLE DUMP COMING UP*

Because they're the bad guys and therefore have no ethics?

I should feel bad about breaking him so bad but I just grin every time I think about it. Guess I'm evil, deep inside. Oh god the collective fail would cause a fail-event-horizon, leading to a fail-black-hole and the collapse of the universe. OLÉ, IMMA GO HAVE A CRAZY MOMENT BRB Noooo Port come baaaack Smug and yet kinda depressed he's dragged Port into this. People gonna die.

Ffffff. *imagines Port in wenching skirts* LIKE OMG DID YOU SEE JAPAN TOTALLY MAKING OUT WITH GREECE AT THE PARTY LAST NIGHT NO WAAAAI. Like the passion of a thousand hand-held incendiaries. And then England gets all smug that he broke them up and gets punched in the face.

The British modesty in me wants to reply with "nooo, I can't do it as well as you" but then I fear we would go back and forth forever with this line of thought. Even though you so do

Ahaha yes totally. Like a jigsaw of awesome. o/ And it's sexy and goes well with anything! <3 *OMG SO EXCITED AAAH*

Curse them and their lack of rules. Heroes get all the rules orz.

I am taking pleasure in his suffering only because France is there to hold his hand if we're being honest l-lol. But other than that, yes. Evil. Totally. A prophecised fail-eclipse, aka the family dinner. HOW CONQUISTADOR OF YOU. B-Bros before hos hermanoooo ;A; orz Port, well done. Now England has something else to defend. GOOD ONE.

I'm sure he'd look fabulous. *England would carry him down to the brig for some proper punishment, I mean* ;SLDKF POLAND IS TOTALLY THE NEWS 'GIRL'. JUST SAYING. EVERYONE TUNES IN BECAUSE HE HAS ALL THE GOSS. ...Oh Inglaterra, that's the most romantic thing you've said to me in a hundred years~ /touched (what) No doubt he deserved it orz.

LOL well knowing me yes we would be going back and forth on that FOREVER. But Port and his sass is for everyone but especially England to enjoy~ ;3;

So I was driving back from class today and had a random headcannon moment and thought of you.

What are the pairings you ship for this universe? I know you obviously think of Scotland x France, England x Portugal, Germany x Italy (?), and Spain x Romano, but what about the others?

And my random headcannon thought was the sad idea that perhaps Canada, Australia and maaaaybe New Zealand are the only nations that America has ever had a healthy relationship with. As in, everybody else he has either fought with numerous times through wars land/trade disputes, or conquered in some sort or form and "liberated" them.

Which is kind of sad for such a cheery guy.

Why so Ivan, America?

Hmmmm. A valid question.

In my brain (though idk if it'll translate into the story) there's an interesting little love-chain going on with Russia-->America<-?->England<-->Portugal. Port's used to England cheating on him by now, Empire and India and all. But yeah, idk. It's lonely at the top, eh America?

In short, draw your own conclusions, because I just don't know.

Also, I confirm my shipping of GerIta. Practically canon. idek

I should also mention I am quite tipsy right now, so I may be talking utter nonsense in which case disregard everything I say.
