"Ivan!" Prussia yelled running through the forest that surrounded the Russian's house. "Ivan!" He called again.
It had been a week since he had seen the Russian. A WEEK! Russia had never been gone that long before. Sure a day or two every now and then but never a week. He could still remember the Russian's sad smile as he left.
"I have something I must do Da? I will be back soon" The Russian had said but why wouldn't he tell him where he was going? Why did he look so sad and lost? The Russian handed him his scarf. "Take care of this for me da?"
"Of course," Prussia had answered feeling frightened.
After Russia had left the Baltics had kept him sane but as two days turned to three then to four he started to panic. Then today he had felt his heart stop. He had just been talking to Lithuania and suddenly dread had consumed him. He felt as though his heart would never beat again and he couldn't get enough air in his lungs.
So he had darted outside in his haste forgetting his coat. He was actually surprised he had shoes on. He didn't know how long he had been searching or where he was going all he knew was he had to get there and NOW!
"Ivan!" He screamed again begging that his love would be ok. His body was trembling but he had a feeling it wasn't from the cold.
"Here," He heard so softly he couldn't believe it still he ran towards it as fast as he could. 'Please be ok! Please be ok! Please! Please! Please!' Played in his head till it turned into a wordless plea. Sadly that plea turned into a cry of anguish.
There lying on the snow before him was Ivan, and for once the Russian wasn't smiling.
Prussia rushed to him tears running unchecked down his cheeks. The Russian's eyes were closed and his coat was covered in blood. Prussia fearing he was to late let out a sob that he would never deny. The Russian's eyes fluttered open sad smile returning to its place.
"It is to late my love," Ivan whispered in a strained voice.
"I know," Prussia sobbed. He did know it ever since the day Russia had handed him his scarf, he just didn't want to accept it. Russia caressed Prussia's face whipping the tears away.
"Do not cry my love," he cowed. "I will see you again." His voice as he said this allowed for no argument. Prussia just nodded letting the tears run down uncheck.
"Why?" He asked after a moment. "Why!"
"I killed him." Russia replied smile turning happy. "He can never hurt us again." Prussia had known that Ivan would go after Winter at some point. Especially after winter had almost killed Gilbert, but to think Winter was the one to kill Ivan, even if Ivan had killed him as well, made Gilbert sob again. "Thank you for loving me my krolik(bunny)." Prussia kissed him then one final time.
"No my love, thank you for loving me," he said against Ivan's lips. "I will always love you."
Russia smiled a truly happy smile and closed his eyes. His breathing became ragged and then stopped, and that's how the great Russia died, happy and loved.
Prussia had returned home to the panicking Baltics with Russia on his back. He had cried with the Baltics and called Belarus to tell her and Ukraine about their brothers passing and when the funeral would be. They buried Ivan in the middle of a sunflower field in a large green house so he would have sunflowers year round; it is the largest sunflower field in the world.
At the funeral Belarus slapped Gilbert yelling that he had failed to protect her brother. Prussia just nodded and handed her a bag with Russia's scarf in it.
"I think he would want you to have this back." He said as she stared at it. She started crying then and hugged Prussia. He let her cry on his shoulder.
After that Gilbert stopped eating and started drinking heavily. The Baltics worried about him endlessly and soon found that their attempts at feeding him were futile. Lithuania, though, would not give up and continued to try to feed him three times a day without fail for three weeks before he had had enough of Prussia's self-destruction.
"You must eat something!" Lithuania said eyes full of worry and pain. Prussia just ignored him and stared out the window. "Please!" Lithy begged.
"Leave me be!" Prussia yelled and watched as Lithy began to cry.
"I don't want to lose you too!" The little man yelled slapping the ex-Prussian and running out the door.
Lithuania ran out into the woods where he collapsed on his knees and cried. He just nelt there sobbing wishing somehow that everything would be ok again.
"You ok? You can't be sad in snow da?" Lithuania looked up to see a child, a child he never thought he would see again.
