Chapter 1- Beds

"Come on, boy!" he was replied by a few short barks. As the dog ran up to catch up with his young owner the young owner started talking, "Did you know that there are countries farther south that have flowers that grow all year round? It's amazing! I wish I could live farther south. Now come on boy I'll race you back home!" the little boy and his dog ran through the forest side by side, "There's the bri-" the small boy realized there was someone blocking his path. He silently studied the new figure before him. He had a tattered scarf and clothes with a black hat slightly tipped to the side. Before the boy could say anything else the boy had turned into an older, scarier man holding a pipe. It took awhile to realize that the man was coming for him. He turned around and bolted closing his eyes and screaming just to get away from the scary man. He suddenly fell and landed on his back, eyes still closed and screaming.

"LITHUANIA!" He snapped his eyes opening revealing a wall with a table topped with a sunflower vase. "WHAT THE HECK! I WAS SLEEPING LITHUANIA!"

It took a moment to realize that Estonia was yelling at him and Latvia was cowering under the blanket. "S-sorry."

Estonia pinched the bridge of his nose taking deep breaths. "You almost always wake up screaming, sometimes it's all of us that wake up screaming, but you do way too much. What do you even dream about?"

"I don't dream I have nightmares... about Russia and Tartar." Lithuania answered.

Estonia's shivered and Latvia just cowered even more. "Latvia, you can come out." Estonia reassured the younger nation.

A small head with curly blonde hair and violet eyes popped out from under the blanket that the trio shared.

Estonia sighed, "Now come on we probably woke Russia up and hopefully he didn't hear what you had a nightm-"

Suddenly Russia's head popped out from the floor, the trio just stared. Latvia tried to do what Estonia did when he was scared or agitated by taking deep breaths, it backfired on him and he started choking on the air he tried to inhale. He shivered as he tried to regain himself but he fell off the bed squeaking as he did so and out of instinct crawled under the bed, BIG mistake.

Russia's head started to talk, "In Soviet Russia you no sleep in bed, bed sleep on you."

All of the Baltic's fear was washed away by confusion, but it didn't last long as the bed flipped over dumping Lithuania and Estonia onto the floor and onto Latvia. Estonia's knee hit Latvia square in the head, knocking the small nation out. Lithuania rolled across the floor and bowled into the two nations rolling them into the metal pole on the bed, hurting Latvia's head even more and scratching Estonia's leg. Estonia was then knocked out as the bed fell onto them. Lithuania screamed, blacking out due to fear.

Russia's head just smiled and disappeared into the floor.
