It wasn't that long ago that Alfred and the other allies had heard about the axis being stranded on an island, and took that as the perfect opportunity to sneak up and attack them while their guards were down and they were more or less defenseless
He had taken it upon himself to lead the attack, but he was now thoroughly embarrasse having gotten them lost in the process.
As the sun began to dwindle in the sky the allies once again decided to call it quits and camp out for the night.
"Ayah, you really got us lost this time America" china crossed his arms, sitting with his back against a tree bordering the small clearing they were in
America put on an all too self confident expression and laid back, hands behind his head
"Geez! It's not my fault the stupid axis are like totally impossible to find bro"
Britain leaned back and rubbed his head a bit awkwardly
"Well china does have a point, this island is rather small, we should have found the axis by now"
America sat up and leaned forward, gesturing with one hand
"Well the axis know we have like mad skills!! They're probably just hiding from us!"
China half pouted in annoyance
"If they are they're probably just hiding from your doucheyness"
Russia, who was laying down a little further from the rest of the group, tilted his head up in annoyance
"Maybe you could all be quiet while others try to rest, da?"
America lifted his hands up beside his head, a bit irritated
"Okay fine Russia dude"
France, who was laying down next to Britain opened an eye and tilted his head towards russia
"Thank you, some of us are trying to sleep"
Russia smiled but let off a menacing aura
"I included you in that statement aswell France"
The whole group sat in an awkward silence for awhile, but slowly everyone fell asleep, save for America who was staying awake to 'keep watch'
America struggled against sleep, the sun had long since vanished and their camp fire was nothing but a few small embers
It was entirely silent save for the sound of the wind and the ambient noises of bugs and animals far away in the forest
It was entirely silent
A shrill, loud scream, came from somewhere to the left of where America was sitting
He immediately shot up and shook England's shoulder
"Err.. What is it America?.. It's not morning yet let me sleep" Britain rubbed his eye and tried to turn away from America, who then firmly turned I'm back towards him
"Dude. I just heard a scream, i swear I'm not lying"
America wore an uncharacteristically serious expression and spoke in a sharp whisper
England sat up and started to shake France awake
"Seriously?"
As France woke up and opened his mouth to complain the scream could be heard again, this time even louder
France sat up and clung to England who was now nervously sweating
"What was that? What is going on?"
America jumped as he heard footsteps behind him, but as he turned he realized it was just russia
"Do you know who is screaming?" Russia said in an uncharacteristically sleepy and confused voice
America gestured to him, England, and France
"None of us know, and I assume china doesn't either"
China, who had woken up before even russia walked up to the rest of the group
"Yeah, I do not know either"
Another loud scream could be heard and the whole group tensed
America, stricken with fear, hesitantly said."we should probably check it out"
Another scream could be heard and everyone started to walk towards the direction they were heard from
France was still aggressively clinging to Britain's shoulder but he did not dare say a word
As the group walked closer and closer towards the screaming it got louder and more frequent
Soon they approached a cliff edged in thick bushes and trees, overlooking the beach the noises were coming from
None of the allies dared to look yet, but between the screaming they could now hear the crackling of a fire and wet Squelching and tearing sounds.
Russia slowly walked forward and peered down to the beach, and was soon followed by the rest of the group
The scene they were met with was utterly disgusting.
Two figures, whom they soon realized were Japan and Germany, sat over a mutilated corpse.
It was cut open from it's chest to it's navel and a majority of it's organs were removed or were being removed by Japan
Germany sat beside it, holding its hand, and ate from a skewer of cooked meat.
The allies were left utterly speechless. America was frozen with his hand over his mouth, France and England huddled together and France kept looking away and then back, China was trying not to throw up and Russia just started at the scene with an almost intrigued expression.
America was frozen for what felt like an hour, though it was just a few seconds, and then he slowly moved forward and slid down the steep cliff onto the beach
Russia and china followed him, and England and France weren't far behind them.
As America approached he soon realized that the corpse was Italy's, he had assumed so, but it still made the scene all the more sickening.
Japan looked up from Italy's now mostly empty corpse and made eye contact with America
Japan's eyes looked almost empty and his expression showed no emotion.
America froze in place and could barely speak
"Japan.."
America realized that the rest of the allies had stopped about seven or eight feet behind him and probably weren't that visible in the dim, flickering, firelight
Germany turned his head toward the american and his face, whilst hardened and carrying a similarly blank expression, was wet with tears.
Now both of the living axis members were blankly staring at America, who was still frozen in fear.
He truthfully didn't know what to do
Germany was a lot physically stronger than him and Japan was holding a blood covered Katana
And, of course, he didn't want to be next on the menu
Luckily russia and china had managed to sneak up behind them.
Russia grabbed Germany by the shoulders and lifted him up, the German went totally limp and allowed russia to pull him away from Italy, slumping into the sand and crying as Russia let go of him. The sight of the normally hardened and brave man acting so pathetic was strangely unnerving
China initially tried to similarly pull Japan away but as he got up and tried to fight china, he opted to just hit him over the head, causing Japan to fall into the sand unconscious.
America slowly crept up to Italy's body and crouched down
"What the actual fuck.."
England, shook his head, he walked closer but turned away as he saw Italy fully
"No kidding"
Russia smacked Germany on the back of the head and walked closer to Italy's body
"We should probably collect all of the removed organs so he can come back quicker, da?"
Russia was still acting like his far too cheeryself, it felt almost sickening in the grave, dreary atmosphere.
America shuddered and began to collect the scattered organs, starting with the ones roasting by the fire, and setting them back into the poor little Italian's body cavity.
China poked at Japan, before looking away, uneasy.
"Ayah..What should we do with them?"
England stood by Germany, who was now unconscious from Russias smack to the back of the head
"I propose we put them in jail somewhere until Italy comes back"
France walked closer to stand near Britain
"We should probably take their family into custody too for questioning atleast"
China looked at France questioningly
"Japan is my kid brother"
France waved his hand in the air dismissively
"I mainly meant Italy and Germany's brothers I suppose"
England moved to pick up Germany by the shoulders
"Well we should just worry about them for now, and we need to take them back before they start to fight back, a little help?"
Russia walked back over to Germany and helped England lift him
France walked over to Japan and helped china lift him
America lifted up Italy's corpse, which now had all of the organs he could find disgustingly stuffed back inside.
The allies all walked in silence, the only sounds being the dripping of blood from both Italy's corpse and the other axis and their slowly dying campfire
