Chapter 66:

It was a nice day, when China and his boss came to Japan, for some political talk.

…Wait, what…?

While Japan’s and China’s boss were discussing among themselves, the nations decided to go for a walk around Tokyo.

How do I know that already…???

…I didn’t see them even talk once in this memory…

Is that how, looking in others’ memories work…?

Knowing random stuff…?

And I even know that China is the brown haired one, while Japan is the dark haired one…

Suddenly, Japan began panting and looked like he was in pain.

-Japan! Are you okay, Aru…?-China asked worriedly.

-I…I am fine, China-san.-Japan said, trying to ignore the pain, and continued walking. China still looked worried giving Japan a glance every few seconds. Suddenly Japan feel, clutching his chest in pain and breathing heavily, only to be caught mid fall, by a worried China.

-Japan! Japan!-China yelled in worry.-What happened, Aru…?

-Someone…Is attacking…-Said Japan between breaths, looking like he would fall unconscious any moment. China began worrying even more.

…That sounds really, really bad…

-Japan! Japan!-China yelled.-You can’t, Aru! Stay with me, Aru!

-…China-san…I will…-Japan started saying. Suddenly he gasped.-…No…!-He said with wide eyes.-Run away, everyone!!!

-Japan…?-China asked in surprise. Suddenly, Tokyo was attacked by some kind of dark energy balls, making Japan feel worse. �"Japan!!!

…They look similar to the energy balls that Lianna and Litte used, in their fight…

Since, everything came suddenly, not many people had time to run away. One couple with a child, especially, had a dark energy ball launched right at them. It was almost time for impact, when they were pushed away, right before the ball hit. After a few seconds, Japan stood in the impact place, panting, and a big crate around him.

-Japan!!!-China yelled in fright, running to Japan, and catching his as he fell. The couple with the child, and some other people that have seen the scene were shocked, since Japan, didn’t have much wounds at all, even though the energy ball has made a big crate in the ground.

-…Hide…-Japan, said to the couple, trying to remain conscious.-Hide…now…!-He continued, while falling unconscious.

-Japan!!!-China yelled in a really loud voice, while shaking Japan.-Japan, wake up, Aru! Wake up!!!-He yelled as more energy balls were falling around, and Japan looked like he was in big pain and had a bad fever. The people that Japan pushed were shocked by everything, and didn't run away, thus an energy beam was going at them. Suddenly it was blocked by a wok that appeared out of nowhere. After that the wok (surprisingly, looking like new), went to China and disappeared.

-Get away now, Aru! Or do you want Japan's sacrifice be in vain, Aru...?-China yelled at the couple.

-Who...?-They tried asking.

-I am China, Aru! There’s no time for explanations, Aru! Now go hide, Aru!!!-China shushed them, and stayed with Japan as they ran away. Then a lot more energy balls started falling, destroying and killing everything they touched.-Japan…Japan…Please…Don’t die on me, Aru…I beg you…-China chanted, as more energy balls feel, and destroyed everything around.

Suddenly Japan began shinning in a bright pink light, Sakura flowers appeared from him and went to the sky, making a barrier around the whole country, blocking the energy balls.

-…Japan…?-China was surprised. Then he saw that Japan was starting to look transparent.-Japan! Japan! You can’t! You can’t disappear!!!-China was frantically shouting.-I don’t want you to disappear! I don’t want you to leave me! I don’t want you to leave me again!-He continued shouting, as Japan was becoming more transparent. China had tears running down his cheeks by now.-No…Japan…Don’t leave me, Aru…Kiku…please…-He said in despair.-If only…If only, I could do something, Aru…If only I could help Japan, Aru…I can’t lose Japan, Aru…I can’t lose Kiku, Aru…I can’t lose my Jua ha, Aru…I don’t want my di di to disappear, Aru…I…I…I will do anything, anything, so Japan won’t disappear!!! I don’t care what happens to me, I won’t let Japan disappear!!! Even if I were to disappear instead of him!!!

…Wow…

…Talk about brotherly love…

…Sniff…

…Sob…

…Sob…

…Huh…?

…What is happening…?

Suddenly China’s face became blank, devoid of emotion, as he began shinning in a bright light.

The light went from him to japan, sustaining Japan with China’s life force.

As the people noticed, that the strange barrier was blocking the energy balls, they went out of hiding.

Then they saw the blank faced China, holding the unconscious Japan. Both of them shining with a strange light.

China saw them, but he still had a blank face on him, only thinking about keeping Japan alive, and ignoring the commotion around him.

After a few minutes, Japan’s and China’s bosses practically ran to them, with shocked expressions on their faces.

-Nihon-san! Chuugoku-san!-Japan’s boss was really shocked by what he saw.-What happened to you…???!-He continued, but got no reply.-Mina…???

-China, what happened…?-China’s boss asked, shocked. But he got no reply.-…China…China!-China’s boss continued calling, but still got no response. He even tried waving his hand before China, trying to get his attention.-What happened to them…?-He asked the people around, who were too shocked to reply. Suddenly, the energy balls stopped coming. After a second the barrier disappeared, as Japan and China stopped shinning. China blinked, as if being awoken from a dream, and looked around. Then he gasped, looking worriedly.

-Japan!!!-China shouted while looking down. �"…Japan…-He sighed in relief, as he saw that Japan was no longer transparent. �"I…succeeded…In keeping…Japan from disappearing, Aru…-He continued, feeling weak.

…So caring…

-China…?-China’s boss asked.

 -…Japan...take care…of Japan...-China managed to say before falling unconscious.

…Even in that situation, he is still worried about his little brother…

-…China…?-Was the last thing China heard before seeing darkness.

…Wow…

…That was intense…

…And so much brotherly love…

…

…Okay, let’s see what happened next…
