The Angel Treaty 6

Zollver placed the yellow block atop the pink one with ferocious focus, moving the hand back slowly. The twins paused, letting the tower settle... before flailing and squealing! Oh this was so much intense fun! Sicily picked up a blue block and balanced it on the yellow one as Italy stepped into their room, looking over his shoulder. Mama's face was pinched in worry, looking back to Japan who walked in after him. " Nihon, are you sure this is a good idea...? " Kiku nodded, stepping over to the twins and sitting down on his legs. " I am certain. My brother will not cause harm to them, it would be the last thing he wants. Children. " The twins looked up from their game, Zollver in the middle of setting a block down.

Kiku had some color in his cheeks, definitely the beginning of what the kids had. " I would like you to meet my brother, China-san. He is not your uncle though- " Sicily quickly broke in, jumping up and tugging on the white jacket he had on. " Will Uncle Pussa be here!? " Japan chuckled, raising a hand and stroking fingers through her hair. So soft and dark, didn't look like either of their parents aside from their eyes. " No, we are meeting China-san. " Zollver muttered softly, setting the block down on the tower and getting to his feet. A mindless hand grabbed his rabbit and went to his mama. That bunny was getting rattier and rattier every day.  " I don't wanna meet people... I don't like them. "

Feliciano picked his baby up by his armpits, leaning him in to rub noses. " But Zollver, we'll all play together! China has good food too! All your uncles have been nice to you too, and they started as strangers. " Zollver crossed his arms the best he could and looked to the side. His little brow lowered as far as it could; he'd been around Doitsu too much. " I'm not hungry. And they'll be mean to us when you're not around. " Sicily though was picked up by Japan, wrapping her arms around his thin neck and setting her head on his chest. She heard the slightly raspy breathing of the Asian, and she closed her eyes. " Keykew... I wanna meet your brother. But I want you to hold me. "

Japan was surprised by the request... but he didn't argue. Even Italy cooed as Japan hugged her softly. Oh a big step in his books. " Of course Sicily-san. " The twins were removed from their room and taken into the living room. There sat China on the couch with two stuffed animals. Pandas, of course! He looked up and set the animals down, standing. Instantly Zollver screamed bloody murder, clawing at his mama's shoulder to try to run away. Feliciano fumbled with the boy, setting him down on the ground. " ZOLLVEREIN! " The boy was booking it for the hallway, finding his daddy in the bathroom. The bathroom door was opened, then slammed shut.

China blinked, a confused noise escaping his lips before Sicily spoke up, defending her brother. " He's shy. He's Zollver, I'm Sicily! " And she smiled just like Italy. The resemblance was uncanny. Yao looked between the two adults, then to the child. He bowed deeply before speaking, Sicily taking in the man's face and voice. " Hello Sicily. It's nice to meet you. May I give you your present? " The girl gasped, and she extended her hands for Yao. Japan happily passed her on to his brother, smiling softly as China held her to his chest. Sicily nuzzled that Chinese chest, closing her eyes. The silk was gentle against her flesh, and the buttons were soft, dark ivory.

Without warning she whispered. " Mmm, you smell yummy. " China chuckled warmly and moved to sit down on the couch with the baby in his arms. " I made chicken and rice before coming over here... do you think you smell that on me? " The tot pondered him, sniffing softly on his clothes, before shaking her head. No, that wasn't it.  But his odd scent was forgotten as he introduced her to the panda. Gentle brown eyes flicked to the toy, and she reached out without a word. Hands stroked the ears, touched the sewn eyes and nose, before looking up. " What is it...? " Japan was quickly on her, moving over to sit beside his brother. " Sicily, do not be rude. "

Yao smirked at his young sibling, motioning his hand in dismissal. " She's fine! She doesn't know what it is, she's a baby. It's an animal called a panda. They are important to my country, and bring good luck. " Sicily looked up to Yao, then squeezed the animal to her breast. " Thank you China! " Italy smiled for his baby, rocking back and forth happily on his heels! So happy he adopted these twins! China reached out and took the panda's ears, and opened his mouth to speak until Japan choked. His chest jumped, suppressing the hard cough with muscle strength and the back of his hand pressed to his lips. But it wasn't enough.

Nihon coughed hard into his hand, standing. " E-Excuse me. " And he somewhat rushed for the kitchen for a drink. Italy and China watched him, Sicily instantly jumping out of China's lap with her panda. " Keykew?! " She ran after him, but Feli picked her up and prevented this. " Sicily, don't. He's just fine, needs a drink is all. " The little girl relaxed in her mama's arms, and that's when Doitsu stepped from the hallway. He wore his sleep clothes, hair wet from the shower he was taking when Zollver busted in. Instantly the boy yelled, seeing China was still here. But Doitsu grabbed tight onto him, causing the boy to begin shaking and tucking to his daddy's chest. His cheeks were red too, but only because Zollver had grabbed onto his, uhm, vital regions trying to climb up his leg to get into his arms.

" Why is my boy terrified? " Italy shrugged as China stood, taking up the panda meant for him. The remaining Asian stepped closer and handed Doitsu the animal. " Here, this is for him. I haven't done anything, I'm just, worried for my brother... " He looked back to the kitchen, where Japan sounded like he was hacking up a lung. Germany introduced his son to the stuffed panda, but Zollver was very wary of the creature. His bunny even looked disapproving. Sicily, hearing the coughing, was quick to put two and two together. " I bet he's got our nom-on-ya! "

Yao's eyes widened, and he took a step back. " Pneumonia? Isn't that, contagious? " Feli was quick to shake his head! Sicily looked up to his mama's face, still snuggling the panda. " No, if it was, Doitsu and I would have it. They're taking medicine and getting better. Nihon must be getting a cold. " Japan stepped out of the kitchen, paler now. The room was silent as he moved to his brother's side. Then, seeing all eyes on him, his own widened. " Is, something wrong? I'm sorry. " China narrowed his eyes, speaking in a spiteful tone. " No brother... But I have to go. I do not want to get sick. This is pathological warfare you know? Ring a bell, Germany? " And his dirty look went directly to the WW2-guilty country.

The blonde's eyes narrowed. His hand rose to hold the back of Zollver's head, gently squeezing him closer. " I think it is time for you to leave. Please, drive safely. " China bowed to his brother, sent another stink eye to the new family, and walked out on them. Sicily raised a hand and rested it on his mama's neck, keeping her eyes on the door. " What's pathological warfare, mama? " Feliciano's arms wrapped tighter around her, his own brown eyes going to his husband. Doitsu's face was like stone now, reminded of those horrid days. " Nothing you need to worry about baby... Nihon, how about you lay down and get some rest? I'll bring you some chicken noodle soup! " Japan nodded, silently sullen.

He set this daughter down and started for the kitchen. Japan passed Germany on his way to his bedroom, looking weaker by the second. The living room was silent, Doitsu looking to both his little kids. Could they really have been passing around the pneumonia like that...? He set down Zollver who ran to his sister. Sicily smiled to her brother as he rushed to her, the boy twin taking the female's. Not even minding to lower his voice, blue eyes wide and whimsical just like his words. " Have you seen daddy naked yet?! I hope I'm that big and muscular when I'm older! " Doitsu's cheeks turned red with the word 'big'.
