      Because of the lateness of my job no one other then Lithuania knew about it. Which honestly I was glad about that, I didn't want the others to worry over me or something like that. Officially I had been in Russia for about a month. God mom must be worried. I sighed at the thought. Staring at my jar full of cash I had made enough to go back home with the help of the money in my wallet  and my low paying job. I was planning on leaving tonight. There was a knock at my door. "Come in." It was Lithuania.

       "Hey ______." I smiled at his presence. "Hey Toris! Tonight's the night." Looking at him phrasing the words. The brunette's eyes grew huge "You earned that much already?" Nodding was my response "Yup had to work everyday for it." Toris seemed happy though a bit of sadness flicked in his gaze. "I'm so glad you finally get to go home, your folks must be anxious to see you." "Yes they probably are," A knot grew in my stomach. I hugged the brunette upset to have to leave my close friend. "I'll miss you so much Toris, you have no idea how much you were there for me while I was here. Thank you for all the help, I promise to call you once I get home, heck maybe even everyday. Make sure you keep me updated with everything that happens here okay." The tall male wiped his eyes from the tears nodding "I will I promise." I smiled happily at him. "Good."

         I asked Ivan if he wanted to hang out today fortunately he was able to. Lately the man had been busy with paperwork so we didn't see each other much. I slowly rocked back and forth on my swing as I gazed at the ground. The Russian was beside me and seemed to enjoy the children park. Throwing a glance over he appeared to be a child trapped in a grown man's body. I laughed "You look like a little kid." he swayed forward flicking a quick look "Oh? But I am not the only one who is on the swing. Plus you were the one to suggest going here. I am only having fun." the man giggled swinging even higher. I smirked beginning to gain latitude. "I suppose so, but we're probably scaring all the kids and parents away. A grown man and a 17 year old playing in a park, tell me that doesn't scream pedophile." The nation laughed at my remark. "You have such a strange way of thinking, it is quite cute." I blushed whipping my head at Ivan swing matching his swing's momentum. Did he just call me cute? His cheeks were pink with an innocent expression. I shook my head "Ugh! Whatever you say!"  jumping out my swing flying through the air. I landed a bit wobbly though on my feet. "Let's just go home, the others might start to worry if we stay out too late." he stopped his swing slowly, the man's tan coat and pink scarf flapping from the breeze. Once he exited off he shifted his vision at the swing. "Those things really are fun, I could see why you wanted to come here. I really had been meaning to get out the house. And I believe it was spent best, thank you for spending time with me little one." He beamed viewing me. I shrugged "Hey it's what friends are for."

      Even though it would pain me to leave all my friends I needed to go. After dinner past I got ready to leave. Lithuania was generous enough to give me a single strap daypack so I could stash my clothes in with ease. As I exit my room I decided to leave Russia a letter. I couldn't break the news to his face, it hurt me enough when I did to Lithuania. It had something like 'Im grateful for all your kindness, giving me food, clothes and a place to stay is far too kind. Sorry I couldn't tell you earlier it had slipped my mind.' Slowly and quietly I walked to Ivan's door and slipped the envelope under. As I made my way through the front door I pulled out the map Lithuania made me which showed the shortest way to the airport. Ah, so take a left when I walk out? Okay. With a last glance at the clock it read 11:42 and just like that I was out the door.

                     ~Russia's POV~

         It is dark. So very... Dark. Why is it? A bright luminescent flashes in the corner of my vision. My body faces towards it however it is far away. I run to it trying to reach out for it. Running. I am running.  Yet the light seems to just be an illusion that taunts me. Hopelessness. I feel the despair crawl through my entire existence. I stop. I am surrounded by yellow. I am in a sunflower field. Laughter calls in a further distance. Everyone I love is there, Big sister Ukraine, little sister Belarus, Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania. They are happy. They are even smiling holding hands in a circle staring at the ground. Yearning. I am yearning. I am ever so desperate to join them. I want to be apart of their fun. I run once more. Running. I am running. Closer. I am getting closer. A sudden image flashes through my vision. Latvia's throat is in the grasp of a brown gloved hand, the boy's eyes lifeless. The imagine is gone just as fast as it appears. I notice Latvia had disappeared from the circle. Running. I am still running. Another imagine comes. Estonia. His bright blonde hair dyed with the color red, glasses smashed covering his glassy stare. A bloody faucet pipe rested near him. It vanishes along with the Estonia in the circle. Running. I am still running. Lithuania flashes through my eyes. His body leeking of crimson from multiple shots wounds. Blood tickles from his mouth as he states lifelessly at the sky. Tears. Tears are streaming my face. Running. I can't stop running.  Ukraine appears in my vision. Her body hanging from a noose. It slowly rotated obvious of being without life. She disappeared from the circle. Running. Why can I not stop running. Crying. I am crying.  I am only a step away from Belrus. Just as I was about to touch her the scene flashes. Her body floats on water. My sister unmoving. Her head facing the water. She is dead. Belrus had disappeared from the field. I stop. I am where they were. Gazing down I look to see what they were staring at. It is a sunflower. I scanned the area to see that the rest of the sunflowers disappeared. I pick the remaining one from the ground. It sure is a little one for a sunflower. My heart stops. The flower wilts instantly away in my grasp. It then burst into flames. "Вскоре вы потеряете все дорогой для вас"

      My eyes jolted open gazing around I look at my clock 11:51 p.m. I let my heart settle for a moment, it felt like it was gonna explode. Sighing I rested my head back on my pillow as my hand laid over one of my eyes. Staring at the ceiling I tried to catch my breathe. Such a strange dream... My unconcealed eye view's shifted to door. A white envelope sat the floor. I do not remember that...

       "LITHUANIA WHERE IS SHE!?!" I slammed the brunette's door wide open. "M-Mr. Russia? W-what are you talking about?" He looked at me sleepily too tired to get frightened " _____!  WHERE IS SHE!?" The Lithuania seemed wide awake now. "Didn't she tell you she left to the airport, she's going home." He glanced at his clock "________ should be on her way there now actually." My eyes grew huge. She's leaving!? But why!? Isn't she happy here...? This is unforgivable, I will not allow this to happen. "M-Mr. Russia?" he broke my thoughts. He looked concerned. "Which way did she go?" The brunette blinked confused.  "The alley way of course." In an instant I ran out of the house, I'm coming for you little one.

Вскоре вы потеряете все дорогой для вас  = Soon you will lose everything dear to you.
