(Note - I actually wasn't planning on posting this week but I got this chapter done in Spanish so why not. I was going to skip two updates because I had almost no inspiration to write a chapter for this story. School is draining and I'm kinda just tired of everything. Didn't think I would actually get this chapter done. 

Working on Texas, South Italy and America's first date, and a Valentine's Day chapter currently. Still working on that side-story with 10 chapters. I'm on chapter 7 now. 

Anyway, this was requested by Porter703. 

Like Oceanix, don't take anything in this as fact.) 

"Mommmmmmm!" Alfred looked up from his coffee tiredly as Cali(California) and Willow(Oregon) stomped over to him.


"Deal with this!" Willow huffed, thrusting a child, about 7, into Alfred's face.


"Wha- who are you?" Alfred asked, slowly focusing on the sandy blonde-haired child. The child beamed at him and struggled out of Willow's arms. 

The little girl straightened her clothes before looking up at him with her big brown eyes. "I'm Portland! And I want to be the 51st state!" She chirped, ignoring the glares aimed at her back. 

The nation blinked at the girl. "Huh?"

Cali rolled her eyes and leveled a sneer at the city. "Tell him what you told us, you little brat."

Portland snuck her tongue out at Cali before looking up at Alfred. "I want to become the state of Jefferson. Taking the northernmost territory of California and the southwestern-most territory of Oregon." She informed him. 

Alfred furrowed his eyebrows. "....Isn't Portland on the....East side?" 

Portland pouted, "wellll, I'm the most prominent city in Oregon's mind so I should represent the new state." 

"You're the most prominent city in my mind because you're the largest city in my goddamn state ." Willow groaned, putting her hands on her hips. 

Alfred took a sip of his coffee before looking down at the little city. "Why do you want to become a state?" He questioned, ignoring Willow and Cali's protests. 

"My people feel that they aren't getting enough representation. They feel isolated and neglected by their mother states." The little girl explained, looking like a kicked puppy. 

Alfred almost cooed at her. 

"You can't just become a new state and claim our land. I bet you don't even have any support." Willow huffed, looking offended. 

"Have you seen the map of her land claim, Mom? She's claiming almost half of my land." Cali hissed. 

"Yeah and she's claiming MOST OF MY LAND!" Willow shouted. 

Portland smirked, "you're just mad that you're going to become flatter than you already are." 

Gasps rang out. Alfred covered his mouth with his hand. Cali snorted and sniggered at Willow's offended expression. 

"Since I have the Curry County, Jackson County, and Josephine County in Oregon on my side. Siskiyou County, Del Norte County, Trinity County, and Modoc County in California. There's probably even more counties." Portland teased, crossing her arms. 

"What's your capital?" Alfred asked, chugging his coffee. 

"Yreka", the girl answered. 

"You little shit," Willow hissed. "You've been so rebellious, you are NOT becoming the 51st state." 

The city was going to reply but the kitchen door was slammed open. Olly stood in the doorway with the furious expression Alfred's ever seen on him since Pearl Harbor. 

"I'm supposed to be the 51st state!" Olly huffed, stomping over to the other city. 

"Well, I've almost seceded a bunch of times. If it wasn't for Pearl Harbor and Oregon becoming a state." Portland huffed, glaring at the capital. 

"I've been around longer than you! The government has been debating making me a state ever since I was built." Olly reasoned, looking the taller kid in the eye. 

"Well, at least I'm not a toddler!" Portland snapped. 

Olly's face turned red. "Fuck you, you-" 

The nation gaped as the capital let out a stream of curses that he'd rather not repeat. 

"WASHINGTON, DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA!" Adrian scolded, standing in the doorway next to a rapidly blinking Theodore. 

Olly paled as Adrian marched over. 

At that moment he knew he fucked up.
