The children ran around before bed, laughing and generally just draining energy. A few of the older states wrestling with each other.

Alfred laughed watching them all a watch tower like building. It was at the corner of the property on the left.

"Are you ever going to tell the other nations about them?" Jackson asked.

"I don't know Jacky, I don't know. Austin is nervous about meeting Spain and Florida doesn't want to meet anyone period. Alaska is scared to meet Russia and his sisters. Delaware wants to borderline kill Japan. New York is scared to meet the Italian brothers. The dakota's aren't against meeting them but they are kind of scared, there kids ya know. Their not used to meeting other people." Alfred explained.

"I get what you mean, The states aren't used to people" Jackson sighed, "Don't worry too much, if the states ever want to meet the countries then they'll tell you"

Alfred nodded, "yeah."

At 8 o'clock the bell rung threw out the vast property. Alfred was on the wall running back to the main area, the wall twisted around the trees. He landed quite gracefully, Florida had stayed back picking up his toys.

He walked over to the south eastern state, and tapped the area in his eyesight. He always wore sound blocking headphones.

'Lucas the bell rung, can you please go to your room?' Alfred signed patiently.

Lucas nodded and put his toys in his little mesh bag before running over the grass going to the mansion. Alfred nodded to himself and walked behind him.

The next morning after breakfast the states once again where playing. Austin and Francisco sitting by the large oak gate. While the two states happily shared their views of the same scene. Francisco had painted the trees while Austin had written about it. Then there was pounding on the door.

"Can you do the weird transformation thing?" Francisco asked just above a whisper. Austin nodded. His face changed his hair growing lighter and lighter. Then they rang the bell. The states all fell silent and looked at each other. Texas, now he looked much more like America. He signed for them to get the adults and to hide.

Hawaii dove under the water of the like with all the fish. California sat on his board just under the bridge soon joined by Floirda who hung off the board. Aaron grabbed Jack and jumped into a bush. Many of the states had hidden while most of the provinces had ran to find the five adults that were on the property.

Austin ran up the wall landing on it gracefully. He crouched on the wall and looked down at them, but now he looked like Alfred.

"Alfred!" England called up.

"What are you doing here?" 'Alfred' asked crossing his arms.

"Quite simply, mon cher. If you have nothing to hide why don't you let us in?" France asked. 'Alfred' bit his lip then felt a tap on his back seeing his dad, he jumped back and let his father and two uncles take his place. Jackson let him fall into his arms and the magic faded from him making him look normal again.

Prussia grabbed the texan and took him to a tree and got him to climb up silently. Austin nestled himself into the branches. Prussia sat up with him and patted his shoulder.

"How did you even find this place?" Mexico asked sitting on the wall.

"I put a tracker on Prussia's phone so i could find him when he's drunk" Germany announced. The american looked back over the wall at his children and nieces and nephews. The states nodded and the Dakota twins where ready at the gate.

"You want to know a secret?" America asked standing up. Canada and Mexico looked up and him and nodded along to what he was doing.

"Open the gates" Mexico called. The twins unlocked the gates and dragged them open. A few states had gotten out of their hiding places. Angel and Miguel stood on the bridge with Dominic hiding behind him. Delaware had her battle axe over her shoulder and a glare. Vermont was perched on a tall rock with a bottle of syrup and an axe. A few other states were hiding behind others. Francisco was in the same tree as Austin and Prussia.

"Mon cher who are these... kids" France asked. The nations looked werly.

"You're the ones who wanted to meet them" America remarked and pushed a few buttons on his phone and the large bell rang three times. A few states slowly came out of hiding and Makanui pulled herself out of the pond as Cali calmed down Florida.

"Aloha" She smiled, although she wasn't happy her play time was interrupted. "I'm hawaii! Or Makanui, now ever so kindly explain why I had to stop playing and why you are here. Because barging into someone else's hale isn't very polite" The small hawaiian asked.

Japan hidden behind China at the sight of the tiny 7 year old.

Austin jumped out of his three and picked up Aaron (Alaska) and Jack (Nunavut). Aaron clung to the Texan's back and as Jack clung onto Austin's jack and trying to hide inside of it.

"I deserve an answer" the Hawaiian sang looking over the crowd tapping her foot with an expectant look. "So you don't have one? You're all nā lōlō(idiots)" Makanui huffed brushed off her dress and stormed over to Molossia who picked her up when prompted to. He was younger but looked older, witch Hawaii used to her advantage.

"America-" "here it Alfred, leave your country problems at the gate" The america spoke cutting of Arthur. Arthur took a deep breath annoyed before speaking, "Why didn't you tell us?" He asked walking over to the American man.

"We didn't want to f-in meet ya" South Carolina growled. Popping out from behind her father.

Diego took a deep breath and sighed, he knew this would happen, all the kids were always unhappy with meeting people, anti social definitely but they never liked the nations, probably when Austin went to meetings in Alfred's place he would always be pissed off when he got back and tell the other states what happened.

Alfred may be forgiving but the states definitely held a grudge.

"hey dad, shouldn't you guys fix up the guest rooms? There probably dusty since no one uses them except Uncle prussia" Montana reminded.

"Wait... I have stuff to hide!!" Prussia screamed jumping out of the tree. The adults went to clean out the guest house.

"Y'all play nice!" Jackson called. The door shut and the mood among the children chained.

"Hey Peter, Kugelmugel, Wy, you others. Get inside the main building, I got to show you something awesome" Molossia said as instructed by Hawaii. The micronations went inside the main building.

The gates slammed shut as the dakota twins crossed their arms guarding the gate.

"Alright i'm cutting to the point" Adela announced to the nation, "you a-hole make fun of our dad, can't see Uncle Maple and don't even listen to Uncle Diego" Delaware listed. "Now y'all want to stick your noses were they don't belong and want to act all confused that he never wanted to tell you all we existed? After you call dad names and shiet?"

The nations shared a look, "How do you know this" Romano asked.

"Me." Austin announced, "I take dad's place when he's sick or tired. When you curse at him half the time it's me. Not to mention all the times I watch threw his glasses to see in on meetings. Y'all are f-in a-holes" The Texan ranted.

"That's not including the fact you all have harassed dad about problems you have with Uncle Al" Marc ranted.

The nations where cut off guard by the children's sour moods.

"In short" Delaware proclaims, "you step out of line here and we won't hesitate to throw you so far up you will be able to see the south pole. Do I make myself clear?"

Nods from each nation. The mood changed immediately, "Oh good! I'm Delaware or Adela! I'm the first state of the USA." The blonde haired teen smiled, "I'm part of the 13 council. I help plan things and make sure everything works well. Now I hope everyone gets along well. Please note there is over almost 70 kids here and that's not including all the animals we keep here. We all have our own sets of boundaries and abilities as well as disabilities. Wilson is deaf, Austin has a bad temper, Florida is very sensitive to touch and sound. That's not even all of it. So please play nice and we'll tolerate you just fine. Also don't let Jack near this pond, Uncle Maple will have heart attack" Adela explained with a smile, "that's all, everyone can go back to your normal ativities"

The states went back to their things. Delaware smiled and watched her siblings and cousins dispurce.
