The wave.
The wave that had killed so many of his people.  The wave that was pinning him under. The wave that's weight was crushing itself on him.  The wave that knocked the wind out of him.
The wave.
Nihon's vision was blurring.  He caught glimpses of sunlight through the blue-green-grey wall.  He had been under far too long.  He fought to keep breathing.  Scenes of apocolyptic disaster were all around him. Buildings decimated,  forests destroyed, families torn apart.  He clawed at the water around him.  His lungs burned.  Despite this, he almost laughed at himself.  The ocean was both a cruel mistress and a merciful provider.  Her temper turned almost as fast as the Earth itself.  Kiku Honda honestly didn't think he would survive.  Then, something broke thriugh the brackish water.
The hand.
It reached down, visible to Kiku's blurry eyes.  He clung to it for dear life.  He broke the surface, drawing a welcome lungful of fresh air. Smiling down at him was... The hero.  Kiku smiled a little.  Behind Alfred were a hundred friendly faces, holding boxes of supplies, clothes, and food.  They were simple. They meant almost nothing.  At the same time, they meant everything.  The nrmally emotionless nation felt tears prick his brown eyes.  Yes.  He would pull through.  They would all do it.   Together.
A short fanfic about the 8.9 tsunami that hit Japan this morning. I was thinking about it, then Hetalia came to mind, and this was born. Hundreds of people dead, over a thousand feared dead.
If you're a believer, pray.
If you're not, hope.

You can do this, Kiku! We'll help you!! Don't give up!!!

Hetalia is not mine. This story is.
