Chapter 1: Mattie Maple

Another year has passed, another year without a wish "They forgot...again" Matthew Williams the persona of Canada said sadly burying his face into his arms "It's my birthday again...and everyone forgot" he murmured softly as he began crying anew, "I..I just wish I could be with someone...who...loves me" He whimpered.

A light appeared behind him, "Finally...I've waited so long for this moment, he's at his weakest and all bonds of protection have finally worn off!" A sinister laugh could be heard as Canada became engulfed in light, "W..what!" he gasped finally noticing the light as it overtook him...

When the light cleared, he noticed something off "My...house! It's a tree! Kumajirou!" He blinked how did he suddenly remember his bear's name? He got up from his seat only to stumble to the floor "What?" he gasped looking at his hand...hooves! He had hooves! He stood up on his new legs screaming "What's going on!" He shouted

"Hush now my little one, I merely granted your wish" A gentle and loving voice called out to him, Canada turned towards it and fell on his rump "Granted my wish!" He exclaimed and rubbed his eyes. Was he really talking to an Alicorn? White horse, long flowing hair, wings, and a horn...with a crown "W...who are you?" He stuttered

The regal looking alicorn approached "I am Princess Celestia, and I've brought you here to become part of my family. I've watched you for so long, England has been hurtful to you, favoring Alfred over you...France abandoning you...and today, on your birthday not even a well wish," She laid down next to him and nuzzled him sweetly "I brought you to my world to love you as my own son" She said softly and waved her horn in the air...

Canada gaped as he saw the alicorn's horn glow suddenly and then a mirror came floating before them. He blinked at the image, he was much smaller then Celestia...his coat was a sandy brown color, his eyes were the same violet color, mane and tail was the same as his hair color as a human, a very light blond color "I'm...a unicorn?" He blinked his eyes focusing on the horn now sticking out of his French silky mane. He looked back at the mirror to further inspect himself, there was a red maple leaf on his flank...it looked rather...cute

Getting to his hooves he glanced at himself "W..what about my nation? My people?" He asked looking at the Alicorn, "There here and they have no memory of ever being human, my magic worked wonders on them...because you are the land the land followed you here" Princess Celestia said standing up, "Your land has become apart of Equestria, you no longer have to answer to a boss...because you are the land..." She stepped closer "You are charged with running the land, you no longer have to answer to anyone but yourself"

Those words rung in his ears, sure it would be nice to take things into his own han...hooves..now he had a chance to do that, "But what about trade? And...other countries? What about international friendships?" Mattie asked cocking his head to the side. The Princess laughed "Well that's easy, I can tell the rest of my kingdom you've opened your borders to new trade and a desire for friendship...we'll just steal Japan's story of isolation" She said winking.

Well that could work...he shook his head "What about my brother?" He wanted to say, won't he notice? But the words never left his mouth, "Al wouldn't miss me..." He glanced at the mirror, he wiggled his ears, waved his tail around and smiled "Um...with this horn..do..I" He blushed

"You can use magic yes, if you'd like I could have my best student come here and train you, and she'll bring all her friend along as well! You'll make many friends and no one will ever forget you" She said smiling, "Please say you'll stay my child"

Mattie began walking a little looking around his house, "It sounds...so wonderful, could I really stay here? Become you son? Really be part of a family?" He asked looking hopeful, Celestia nodded "I want you to be happier then you've ever been Mattie! Matthew Maple"

Cocking his head to the side and blinking "Matthew Maple? Is that going to be my name in this world?" His question was confirmed by her nodding head, "I figured it would be more appropriate...a fresh start in your new life my little pony, Canada the largest nation in all of Equestria"

Matthew Maple, Mattie the new ruler and personification of Canada the largest nation in all of Equestria! He felt pride coursing through his veins, something he hadn't felt in a long time, "I'll stay! Celestia I'll stay! I want to stay" He ran over and hugged her as best a pony could.

He imagined the ways he'd change everything about his nation...he might finally be able to salvage his economy, make it even better! Idea and plans already began forming in his mind "When do I start!" He chimed excitedly clapping his hooves on the floor smiling.

Celestia smiled "Tomorrow morning of course, have a good night sleep, in the morning get used to everything first. I had to use my magic to change your countries history in order for it to make sense" She said heading towards the door, "Take some time, and within a week I'll send my prize student Twilight Sparkle and all her friends to meet you. For now explore you new world! Learn what your magic is my sweet little pony" The elegant equine left the house. "That went better then I could ever have planned" She chuckled walking over to her chariot and climbed on, "I used quite a bit of magic...casting a forget me spell on that world was no easy task...hehe and that fool thought he could stop me from getting what I want! Now we have Canada's land and all his natural resources! Take me home" She ordered the guards as they took to the sky.

Mattie made his way up to his room "Where is Kumajirou?" He wondered out loud not seeing the forgetful bear anyway, he frowned "Kumajirou?" he called out looking around as he made his way to his room. He really hoped the bear was around, yawning Mattie made it to his bed "He'll be around in the morning...I'll make pancakes for us" He said snuggling into his bed.

Meanwhile said bear had appeared in the most unlikely of places, "This can't be good...Where is Canada?" A soft voice asked looking around as blue eyes stared down in horror, "Oh no...Vinland!" The spell no longer needed had been lifted, memories flowing as they remember one person, one nation many cared for. The blue eyed nation fell to his knees and gathered the bear into his arms shaking, "Y..you were suppose to be a spell of protection for Vinland...damn it! Why didn't I even sense...why didn't I think of this! The spell weakened...because she casted a spell on those who cared for him..without love...the protection spell became weak enough for her to take him..." all this information so old and yet so new as he remember it. He had seen the Queen's desire for land to bring forth into her world...tried to protect Vinland...Canada...and failed all because he failed to see the spell the wicked mare had cast upon himself and others...

"Norge! Your not going to believe this! But...Canada vanished! Like off the face of the world! A whole landmass gone!" Denmark came bursting into the room breathing hard, "You know something..this is some crazy shit magic isn't it?" He asked scratching his head...

Norway picked up Kumajirou and nodded "Yes...He was spirited away...call England. I'll need his help saving Vinland" He said walking off to locate his spell books.

"What the fuck do you mean no flights to Canada! Find me a fucking plan now!" Alfred shouted, it had come as a shock that today was his brother's birthday. He had come to the conclusion going their personally would be the best late-minute present...only all flights to Canada was cancelled, "This just in...The world second largest nation Canada has vanished off the face of the earth!"

Alfred froze and looked at the TV screen, his heart pounding "Mattie..." He shook like a leaf, Canada gone? How the hell could something like that happened? Where did his precious little brother go "Mattie..." He pulled out his phone and called up the number "We're sorry, the number you've dialed is no longer in service" Alfred's eyes began tearing up as he fell to his knees "Mattie" He could feel his brother wasn't dead...he knew that, he could feel it...but where was he "Mattie...please come back...I'll be a better brother I swear!" He cried out slamming his hand on the ground...

England was on the phone with his Prime minister "What the bloody hell do you mean 'Canada is gone'! The world second largest nation can't simply disappear! Not a member of the british commonwealth!" England glaring at the TV showing the area on the globe where Canada no longer was. He had called his Prime Minister as soon as he heard the news demanding an explanation, he listened wiping his eyes "Where...is my son?" He asked with a quivering voice. He soon began to sob as memories of ignoring the quite nation began flowing into his mind "Matthew...where did my little boy go?" He asked again as the line went dead...

His phone rang again, he answered it "Hello?" He blinked mildly confused "I need you to come to my house, if you care about Vin...Canada's well being. Its Norway and I can't save Canada alone" England was about to answer but once more the phone went dead "Norway...he knows something..." England muttered and began dialing the other person who needed to know, wither he liked it or not.

"Mon petite...please for you Papa...pick up zhe phone mon chaton" France pleaded to his cell phone, he had been dialing Canada over and over again. He needed to hear his baby's voice, need this vanishing act to be a joke that America, but the phone kept telling him the worse "We're sorry, the number you've dialed is no longer in service, please hang up and try again" it was heart breaking to say the least "Dear god...where is mon petite Matthew?" He questioned the sky.

His phone rang, wide eyes quickly answered "Matthew! Metthew mon petite chaton! Is that you? Where are you? Pa..." however the voice on the other side wasn't his sweet soft spoken son "I'm not Matthew, bloody frog! Get on the next flight to Norway, he may have answer and call that git America...I'm sure the bloke is going mad with worry more so then the rest of us" the voice of England said as he hung up before France could answer. "Norway..." He muttered and quickly made his way through his house packing light, before getting into his car and dialing up America.

Alfred was still in the middle of his break down and weep when his phone went off "Mattie! Please dear god let me hear you!" He pleaded to the phone the tears still running down his face, "I'm so sorry mon cheri...but I cannot grant a wish we both so desire...however old bushy brows has told me to go to Norway, and I am passing this message unto you. England believes he may know something" France said sadly into Alfred's ear. The super power wiped his eyes "Norway...might know something..." He questioned getting up "I'll be their" he clicked his phone off and went back to the teller "Round trip Norway...first available" He demanded and paid for his ticket...he'd be there soon...

Mattie slept so soundly in his bed, unaware of all that was happening in the world he left behind as he dreamed of warmth and new friends...
