A monster and a rose chapter 8

A MONSTER AND A ROSE

CHAPTER 8

France held the letter and for a long time those words 'you vill surrender and Paris is mine' kept repeating in his head, his hand could not stop shaking. He was not even aware of England yelling for the maid to bring hot tea into the room until he felt a cup pressed into his hand.
England gently took the letter from Frances hand and re-red it his face grim looking. 'That bloody Germany who does he think he is! he said annoyed.
France shook still but sipped at the tea and binked a few times 'we have to get Paris back, I cannot think what that monster would do and is doing to her' he said then stood up suddenly grabbing the phone.
'I am calling my Boss he must know! he said worried as England sighed a little looking as America frowned getting battle plans.
'This is bloody bad' England said worry in his green eyes, he knew if any city got taken then the country would fall aftr it. He was worried about france despite having thier differences, yet at the same time he was worried for himself, if he helped he would make London a target too.
France was speaking in rapid french down the phone, both England and America watched as his blue eyes turned steely and he balled his fists, putting down the phone he turned to them.
'Well it seems I am going to war with Germany, I will rally my tropps and meet him tomorrow' he said in a serious tone.
'dude...waht! America gasped.
'you heard me yank' France said slightly irritated 'its the only way to get Paris back! and there is not way I am surrendering to that 'potato sucking bastard' he yelled the last part out.
Hearing this both England and America laughed a littled seeing a little bit of france back once more.
'Now if you do not mind friends I must prepare' France said and ushered the other two nations out.  Both England and America were rather concerend yet both could not go to fight as there bosses had forbidden it althought England's was on the edge of getting ready to fight Germany.

Once again Nala had lost tack of time, she had no idea how long it had been since ludwig left. She stayed there in bed naked expept for the sheets around her as she breathd deeply, she had long stopped crying and sighed looking around what was now 'her home'. A loud knock brought her out of her thoughts and the sound of the key moving in the lock. She kept herself still praying it wasnt another solider to see her naked like this.
'Paris' came that same female voice Nala had heard earlier. She called out quietly 'y..yes' as the door opened slowly to reveal a woman. She was dressed in the same unifrom as many of the germna Soliders yet it was a Prussia Blue color. She had eyes like Ludwig a little less cold looking, she wore a cap and under that Nala could see soft blond hair tucked into a neat bun with a side fringe.
'are...you Berlin? Nala asked quietly noticing two things, she was holding a bundle of neatly folded clothes and on top of that a tray of steaming food.
'I am' she said softly as she made her way into the room closing the door with her foot. She walked closer to the bed and looked at Paris, she instantly felt sorry for her knowing what Germay and prussia had both put her through. Setting the tray down beside Paris she motioned her to eat.
'Jou must be hungry' she said softly as she sat down beside Paris who looked for a long moment then nodded eating the food quickly and drinking fast.
Nala finsihed eating then looked back at Berlin, she was not sure of the girl. 'Are you like them? she said her voice shaking a little as Berlins eyes went wide. 'As by zhem jou mean zhe Nazis? she asked as Nala nodded. 'NEIN! she said loudly then quickly added 'somehow along zhe vay mein bruders have become lost, I blame Zher boss, I do no agre vith vhat zhey are doing, but I cannot stand und fight' she said slowly as Nala nodded.
Suddenly she felt a hand on hers and looked at Berlins eyes 'but I vill help Jou, Paris, I have a plan, do jou trust me? she asked in a serious voice.
Nala looked for a long moment then nodded 'I...I do' she said.
'Good, Ve dont have a lot of time' she explained then added 'I vill help jou at zhe ball ja' she said then explained the plan as Nala nodded slowly then added 'what if we get caught? she asked 'they whipped me, the last time'she said shivering, a squeeze to the hand make Nala look back up and Berlin looked serious 'Ve vill not' she said in a strong voice.
Berlin then layed out new cloths for Paris as she starred at them frowning. They were all in plain colors, whites, blacks, some dresses but very simple. Berlin then held one up this caught Nala's eyes: it was a deep red color, had a square neckline, and sleevs to the elbows, there was a black and white sash at the waist and a slit up one side.  'Zhis is for tonight Pairs, a maid vill come in soon to do jour hair and make-up' she said slowly then added 'be carefull' she said laying the dress down.
Nala watched as Belin took the empty tray and walked out the room with not another word, she heard the lock click and sighed as she starred at the clothes, getting out of the bed she made her way to the bathroom and cleaned herself up, she stoo looking in the mirror for some time and did not her the door open again as Ludwig entered the room. His blue eyes looked at the clothes then to the red dress.
Looking around he saw the bed empty and for a moment thought Paris had escaped as he held his breath then let it out looking as the bathroom door was a little open. He took his hat off and unbuttoned his jacket a little as he walked to the door.
Nala let out a sudden yelp of surprise as she felt strong arms go aorund her waist, she looked in the mirror to see Ludwig leaning his face on her shoulder. 'Mein leibe, it is good jou ate ja' he said softly and ran his right hand down gently squeezing her bottom then added 'I missed jou'
Nala went deep red and let out a little yelp trying to push him off, though it didnt really matter as Germany was stronger than she was. He kept his arms around her for a long time as Nala did nothing.
When Ludwig released her he looked at her up and down yet again then gave her a tiny smile 'I vant to ravish jour body right now....but...ve have a ball to attend to' he said in a soft tone as Nala shivered a little.
'I suggest jou get dressed Paris' he said slolwy looking at her as he nodded, aware of her naked body Nala walked over to the dress on the bed then looked at it for a long moment 'did you choose this? she asked as Ludwig smirked a little 'ja, perfect for jou now zhat jou are mine ja' he said givng her a nod, he then walked to the wardrobe and brought out yet another dark SS dress uniform, Nala took the chance to quicklt slip the dress on when his back was turned, it was strange as it was her size and felt rather comfy. She was aware of the neckline showing her chest off. Once finished she sighed quietly and stood at the dresser for a long time.
A sudden knock made her jump as Ludwig turned and walked briskly to the door opening it he ushered in a maid who had a lot of hair and make up stuff.  'Paris sit' he ordered as she looked then slowly sat down on the chair.
About an hour later Nala stood up, her hair was styled in long blond waves, her cheeks had a blush and red lipstick had been applied to her lips as she looked watching Ludwig walk closer and look her up and down.
'Jou are perfect mein leibe' he whispered as she starred at his black smart uniform, no matter how nice it looked Nala hated it.
Nala looked and said nothing as Ludwig walked to her and took her arm close, 'Now Paris ve have some rules tonight ja' he said kissing her neck gently 'first, do not embaress me in any vay, second, jou vill stay by my side at all times and lastly jou vill not try to escape' he said making the last part louder.
Nala looked at him starred into his blue eyes and nodded slowly 'I promise' she said quietly.
'Good meine liebe' he said slowly and began to lead Paris out of the room.

----------------------------------------------

An hour later Nala was beginning to feel very self councious, she was aware of many of the high Nazi men starring at her, some with looks of lust on their faces others with smug pride looks as if thinking 'Paris belongs to us'.
Nala kept a tight grip of Ludwig even though his grip was just as tight on her as he steered her towards a few higher officals. She starred around, the music was playing something like Mozart or Beethoeven as some were dancing aroind with lovely blond and brown haired woman.
'Paris ja, zhis is mien top general' Ludwig said giving a nod to a rather high cheekboned blue eyed man with close cropped blond hair, he wore a similar dark suit to Ludwig and nodded as his eyes looked from head to toe over Paris. 'so zhis is paris, ja' he said and walked closer, Nala breathed deep and fast as she tried to keep calm as the man looked at her like a cat would to a mouse.
'ja zhis is Paris und she is mine' Ludwig said with pride pulling Nala closer as the General chuckled. 'indeed she is und a fine prize too' he said
Hearing this Nala narrowed her eyes but said nothing, she felt terrible and could not stop thinking of france.
As the night wore on Nala had to dance with Ludwig and said nothing as he leaned in to kiss her infront of the others, his strong arms keeping a hold of her tightly, he then slid his tongue in her mouth as she wanted to resist yet found once again herself kissing him back as the others cheered.
Finally pulling apart Ludwig looked at her and smiled as Nala looked back her cheeks slightly flushed yet her eyes slightly defient too.  Ludwig looked and smirked a bit seeing this, he liked how Paris still tried to resit but yet he had control over her. He took her arm once again and pulled her close 'hold on to me ja' he said softly yet commanding as Nala looked and nodded as he began to dance a slow waltz with her, she was aware of many starring at her as she took a deep breath and ignored then, finally the dance ended and Ludwig looked at her, taking her arm he lead her to a table with food and champagne as she looked, she realized it had been a little while since she had last eaten. She said nothing as Ludwig picked up a few bites of food and gave her a cool smile 'jou know Paris zhe food is zhe finest' he said as she slowly picked up a few bits nodding slolwy, she felt like once again she was surrounded by sharks.
After a while all Nala wanted to do was get away from all the learing gazes of the officers, she felt a little surge of hope as she saw Berlin who walked in, her blond hair tucked neatly into a bun, her side fringe showing, she wore a smart dress like short and a skirt. Nala frowned a little seeing who she was with......that Prussian.
Prussia walked over to them his arm in Berlins as he grinned looking at Paris. 'Bruder jou got her nicely cleaned up ja after' he winked at Ludwig as Ludwig put a hand on his shoudler and whispered something low causing him to go red. 'zhat talk is for later ja' he said his voice commanding and cool.
Nala stood there and took deep breaths once more as Prussia leered at her as she narrowed her eyes. 'stop..looking at me like that' she finally said as Prussia narrowed his eyes grabbing her arm suddenly 'do not speak to me like zhat here ja' he hissed as Berlin looked and pulled Prussia back. 'He has had a little to much' she said slowly keeping her voice calm not wanting to attract to much attention as Ludwig gave him a warning look then leaned in whispering in paris ear 'remember vhat I told you about embaressing me ja'he said his voice deathly quiet as Nala shivered a little 'yes...' she said then groaning inside she looked at Prussia who was smirking a little 'Officer Beilschmidt I am sorry for saying that' she said softly red going into her cheeks as inside she really wanted to punch the smirk of the Nazi's face.
Prussia looked and whisperd something in Ludwigs ear causing him to chuckle low as Berlin looked.
'ah Belin vy are jou always so quiet'Prussia said grinning as he held her arm 'come and dace vith jour bruders' he said grinning his red eyes glittering as Nala looked at Berlin who gave her a tiny nod.
'I vill but first look at Paris Ludwig, she is pale as zhe snow ja' she said slowly as Nala starred at them both looking like she would faint.
'Vill you at least allow me to take her to the bathroom ja? she asked as Ludwig gave Paris a look and his grip around her loosened as he did trust his sister. 'Ja but do not be too long' he said curtly as Prussia looked a little dissapointed. 'Burder vhy did jou do that? he asked watching as Berlin gently took paris arm and walked to the far side of the room to the restrooms.
Ludwig looked at him and whispered 'I do not vant her passing out on me othervise zhat vould be emaressing ja' he said then grinned 'go und get some drinks' he ordered as he turned to talk to yet another officer.
Prussia frowned a little but nodded as his eyes were locked on Berlin talking to Paris over in the far corner, as much as he liked his sister he had a sneaky feeling something was going on.

Nala was glad Berlin lead her to the restrooms, once inside the air was slightly cooler, she looked around and noticed another door as Berlin leaned against the sink. 'how are you holding up Paris? she asked her blue eyes softer than Ludwigs. Nala looked for a moment 'I...its hard..' she said then added 'are you going to help me then like you promised? she asked as Berlin nodded.
She watched as Berlin pulled out a uniform from under one of the cabnets in the restrooms, she frowned seeing it being dark as Berlin handed her it 'jou need to blend in othervise zhey vill know' she said slowly then helped Nala get changed, she then pulled her blond hair up into the cap the best she could. Nala looked at her 'Your risking your life to help me' she said softly giving her a hug as Berlin then changed into her uniform.
'Alright her is vhat ve are going to do' Berlin said slowly, 'Jou and I are taking a car und ve vill be driving to a check guard point' she said slowly 'zhis should vork' she said looking at Paris who had wiped all her makup off. 'I hope so'she said slowly.
Nala said nothing and kept her head down as Belin lead her out the other bathroom door and looked to see if any guards were around, they were in luck most were attending the ball. She quickend her pace as she knew the car was waiting for them.  The had made it to the rear exit of the building as Paris kept her eyes down as they walked past a few Guards who nodded but did not move. Berlin had just made it outside when a guard yelled in german 'HALT!, at once Paris tensed up hearing Berlin breath faster.

Unkown to Berlin, Prussia had known about the other exit of the restroom and he had sensed something was going on with her and Paris even though his brother had not, he had had a feeling Berlin was going to help Paris. He had excused himself from the ball and slipped out pulling a coat on he had ordered a few guards not wanting to cause a fuss just yet.
He had talked to a few guards and the ones Berlin and Paris had passed and ordered them to say nothing as he had a feeling they would go this way. His red eyes looked around as he pulled his coat further around him and his hat down shading her eyes a little as he made his way to the exit.

Berlin cursed under her breath 'shize' she said and looked at Paris whos heart was beating fast as she knew it too, they would not be getting far. Berlin whispered in rapid french which surprised Nala 'Paris we are going to have to fight, can you? she asked as Nala nodded slowly shaking.
Berlin suddenly turned around and pulled a gun from her jacket shooting at one guard and aiming for the other as Nala began to run as Berlin had ordered her too.
Nala looked back at Berlin seeing her fight with the guard, she kept running well at least tried to.

'BANG!!' a loud shot rang out and Nala heard Berlin curse loud at the same time, she turned around to see Prussia standing, his overcoat blowing in the wind as he had his gun aimed. She starred in shocked as Berlin held one of her arms now bleeding rather a lot as she growled at Prussia.  

'PARIS RUN JA! she yelled as more guards came out and two grabbed Berlin, yet she kept fighting hard. Prussia walked closer and smirked a little. lifting his hat he aimed the gun at Paris. 'come now ja, jou cannot escape Paris! Jou vant to make mein bruder angry ja? jou do remember the last time jou ran? he said then added 'I rather enjoyed zhat little game ve played ja' he said smirking as Paris starred remembering.
Prussia grinned as he walked closer to berlin and put the gun to her head 'jou vant me to shoot her ja? zhe traitor! he yelled angry as Berlin growled panting her face looked a little pale due to the blood loss. Nala starred back she did not want Berlin to die but she was so close, she starred then her hope shattered as more guards appeard all aiming their guns at Paris.
She starred into the albinos eyes and nodded slowly as he grinned and nodded at the guards who grabbed Berlins arms tightly. 'Elizabeth jou are such a traitor! he said slowly then added 'I vill have fun punishing jou' he said and suddenly knocked Berlin out with his gun.  Nala yelled geting some fire back 'leave her alone you bastard! she said despite being surrounded by guards as Prussia grinned and walked over to her looking at her dressed in the uniform.
'Oh I am sure bruder vill have a godd time vith you once again ja' he said and grabbed her arm tightly twisting it up as she yelped in pain as he began to drag her back inside. 'shall ve show Ludwig how naughty jou have been Paris? he asked his voice going really cold as Nala shivered 'perhaps he vill vhip jou again hmmm zhat vas very much fun' he purred into her ear as she shook. 'what are you going to do with ...Berlin shes your sister! she said trying to make sure Berlin would be okay as the guards dragged her in front of Nala.
Nala looked around, she could hear the music so the ball was still going on, she tried to squirm a little in Prussias tight grip and yelped in pain as he delibertly squeezed her arm. He had a rather good idea 'stop' he ordered the guards as Nala shivered. 'Take Berlin to zhe cells ja, und jou little Paris vill come vith me ja' he whispered his voice dropping. Nala nearly stopped dead 'what...' she managed to say as Prussia dragged her away from Berlin, she kept stumbling as he dragged her down and akong a corrider not saying anything, he then began walking down a set of cold steps, Nala could feel the cold hit her.
Suddenly she was shoved inside a cold bricked cell, all she could see was Prussias gleaming red eyes. 'Mein bruder is far to soft on jou ja' he said then stepped to her and grabbed at the hat, jacket and began to pull the trousers of her legs. Nala tried to kick out and resist but Prussia was too strong. 'Stop it"! she cried out as Prussia threw someting at her. Starring down she saw the black jacket. 'zhats all jou vill be getting und I vill enjoy having fun vith jou later' he said giving her an evil smirk, suddenly Nala was plunged into darkness as the cell was closed, she could not even see in front of her, she clutched the jacket putting it on her and pulled her knees up to her chest as tears began to fall: she and Berlin had failed in their plan.

Nala had no idea how long it was before the door opened again, she was hungry, scared and very very cold, the jacket really did not do much for her to keep her warm, she shivered as she kept her knees to her chest.
Suddenly light busrt into her dark cell and she shielded her eyes blinkign a few times as she heard boots clanking down the cold steps, she prayed it wasnt Prussia.
'Mein leibe, vhat have jou been up to zhis time' came Ludwigs rather cool voice. Nala blinked a few times as she looked as Ludwig got closer, he was still dressed like earlier and kneeled down beside her, he grabbed her chin roughly lookin into her eyes. 'have jou disobeyed me again ja? he asked a spark of amusemnet in his voice. Nala said nothing but jumped when Ludwig slammed his hand against the wall. 'y...yes' she said slowly trying to look away.
Ludwig starred at her his eyes going a little colder 'Jou really test mein patience Paris, yet Jou are to beautiful to kill but jou still need punished ja' he said slowly then added 'I heard from Prussia, jou and mein sister have grown close ja? he asked his voice going a little hader as Paris shook but nodded slowly then added 'why are you so interested' she shot back as Ludwig suddenly slapped her hard and she yelped out in pain holind her cheek. 'und here I thought I had fully broke jou ja' he hissed in her ear.
He grabbed Nala pulling her up as her legs shook 'I do not zhink it vill be long before I stamp out a last bit of resistance in you ja' he said coldly then added 'I have just the trick' he said dragging Paris with him back throgh the corridors not caring she had only the jacket on. 'where are you taking me? she asked as she noticed it was now night yet again, she had no choice but to stumble along with Ludwig, most of the soldiers and officials still being at the ball. He dragged her down yet another flight of cold stairs and down a corridor.

'AHHHHHH!!! STOP! a loud scream echoed through the corridor as Ludwig said nothing but Nala gapsed recognizing the voice as Berlins.
'NEIN, JOU ARE A TRAITOR BERLIN! Prussia yelled as Nala suddenly went pale hearing the familiar sound of a whip crack then another scream.
AHHHH!!! BASTARD! Berlin spat back.
Nala tried to pull back as ludwig looked at her 'nein Pairs Jou vill vatch zhis ja, see vhat ve do to traitors even our own blood' he said coldly as he pulled Paris into the veiw of the cell, she gasped loudly 'Berlin! she yelled as Ludwig kept a tight hold on her,
Berlin was naked exept for her underwear, her wrists were chianed to the wall, her face from what Nala could see was black and blue as she strained against the shackles. Her back was a mess of whip marks all bleeding and Nala shivered remembering when Ludwig whipped her, she turn her head as Ludwig chuckled.
'Having fun Bruder? he asked Prussia who was grinning like a manic as he pressed his hand on Berlins wounds and she screamed again, Nala knew she was tough but no one could withstand that amount.
'STOP IT! Nala said shaking her face pale as Ludwig raised a brow amused. 'Nein little Paris our sister must be puinished! he said no emotion in his voice at all. Nala looked away and balled her fists whispering 'I hate you so much' she said as Ludwig looked amused gripping her tighter. 'Nein little Paris jou love me' he said grinning.
'How are Jou holdin up little sister ja' he asked smirking looking over at Berlin who growled despite being in pain.
'FUCK YOU! bruder' she shot back as Prussia laughed 'now zhats not nice little sister' he said smirking as he pressed on her wound and she yelled in pain moving against her shackles.
Nala starred she hated how they were treating Berlin but could not get any to stop.
Ludwig grinned a little more stepping close to the bars with Nala 'I vill leave jou to have fun ja' he said stil with no emotion he then added 'jou are a disgrace to us Berlinm jou vill rot down here unless jou come and join us again' he said coldly.
Berlin turned her head looking at Ludwigs cold eyes 'I have no bruder any longer!' she said her voice shaking yet there was still some steel in it.
'So be it Berlin' he said then pulled Nala away adding 'it is my time to have fun ja' he said as Berlin looked at Paris face.
Nala was dragged away and the last thing she heard was Berling yelling in pain again.

'SCREAM FOR ME MORE LITTLE SISTER! Nala heard Prussias voice say before the doors slammed shut yet again.
