Stand United 2/5

The rest of the week was a blur of short nights in hotels rooms and unending days of organizing aid to the cities around the 49th parallel. The fall of the major Canadian cities brought back eerie echoes of September 2001, but stretching through five time zones. No one knew precisely where the attacks had come from, and of course many paranoid fingers pointed at the Middle East. Not many people looked north at Russia, but Alfred's eyes never wavered. That smug, big-nosed bastard was smart enough to not use his nukes against the U.S.A., but he certainly had enough other missiles to send over the Arctic Ocean. He would have thought that Ivan was sharp enough to not mess up, though, to hit the right target. Alfred would have thought that the Russian knew him well enough to, to not

The crack and groan of the ice in the Northwest Passage kept him awake at night. The mutter of the Atlantic fishermen grew louder each morning, and the murmur of the Native treaty debates in Cascadia filled his lunch break. Firefighters and paramedics flooded north as the customs offices along the border dissolved. The DEW line plagued his nightmares.
At the end of the week, the treaty of the United Continent of North America was signed. Alfred clasped hands and said his thank yous and his mercis. Then he was ushered off, and told to go eat something, for god's sake, eat something and sleep for a few hours

Alfred awoke to a high-pitched ringing in his ears. God. Too much...whatever it was in the bottle his boss has ordered. But the ringing was from the phone, and not from the tides of Fundy, so Alfred would probably find out what kind of bottle it was, and order it again

He signed another paper, and the act made his decision final. He wouldn't allow any exceptions, any arguments. If Québec had any issues with being the only francophone state, well, he still had a substantially larger military than them. If they acted up, he'd come down on them hard. They were hisAnd that was that. They were whole, then, the UCNA. Alfred needed to change his jacket just one last time. His hand much steadier than the night before, and he cut out a neat "70

Holy shit. This is incredible, authornon; kept me at the edge of my seat, and really showed the frantic pace at which Alfred was trying to prevent himself from really thinking about anything other than the revenge. I loved the way you have him just flat-out unifying everything, his paranoia and his need to act and wow.

The sequel requester OP here!
This was so sad and tragic, although I did get a good laugh at Quebec seceding, only to be forced back in by Alfred. I know, I shouldn't have laughed, but I did. Sorry Quebec T___T
If province-tans existed, I bet they sure as hell would be having one major identity crisis coming at them. D:
The sad part about the whole taking over North America is that Alfred has good intentions, he wants to protect them, but at the same time, he's screwing them over. 'The road to hell is paved with good intentions' indeed.

dsaijasoidjasdsa. HEAVEN'S GATE FIC. I loved that fill so so much. And the sequel. And now this. And - and - oh my god this first chapter is filling me with joy. Baffin BAY! BAFFIN BAY. And the glasses! And the NUMBERS. I love you writer-non.
I pray by the time I finish this comment there is more. f5ing like mad.
I suppose it would be a bit of a prequel to "Opening Heaven's Gate" (http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/4567.html?thread=5013719#t5013719), which I thought was fantastic. There is also a sequel to this at (http://hetalia-kink.livejournal.com/4567.html?thread=5886423#t5886423). Neither of these were written by me; I'm just another anon who became preoccupied with the idea.
