Description: Worried about their co-workers, America and England decide to brave the storm and see if they are alright.
What a mess, this storm. England was used to rain and thunder, but nothing like this. He stared out the window, listening to the static on his PDA. He had been trying to reach the owner of Death By Pastry for hours. Just because school was closed did not necessarily mean work was, too. And not hearing anything from the old man who hired them worried him. What if he had gone to the cafe and gotten injured?
After not getting any answer from there, he switched the dial and attempted to reach America. The last thing he really wanted to do was talk to that guy, but it needed to be done. This was an emergency.
Nothing but wobbly noises came from his side of the machine for a while. At last, there was an opening.
"America!" Bzzzt. "I say, can you hear me?"
