How To Be Awesome, Chapter SixSoon, the two were back in the relative security of the basement.  Canada observed Prussia once more, although, by now, everything seemed to have gone back to normal.  Before Canada could figure out if there was something he should say, Prussia took the lead.

“Time for more training,” he said.  “Pretend I’m Taiwan.”

Prussia crossed to the far side of the basement and struck a pose.  He shifted his weight onto one leg and rested his hand on his hip.  Tossing his hair, he turned to face Canada.  Canada clapped his hands over his face in embarrassment.

“Yoo-hoo!” Prussia called through pouty lips.

How To Be Awesome, Chapter FiveThe two nations rocketed up the stairs and soon found themselves in the kitchen.  The lovely scent of coffee filled the air.  It was accompanied by the happy sounds of friendly conversation and coffee bubbling as it brewed.  With a shy smile, Canada nodded politely toward the three nations who were seated around the kitchen table.  Austria returned the gesture, but as soon as he took note of Prussia’s presence, he scoffed and excused himself from the room.  Once Austria was gone, Prussia folded his arms and smiled smugly.

“Is he okay?” asked Canada, gesturing toward the door through which Austria had just exited.

“Ye
How To Be Awesome, Chapter FourGermany’s house was warm, inviting, and spotlessly clean.  Prussia led Canada past several lovely-looking rooms and stopped in front of an unusually heavy door.  Normally, such a door would be used for an external side door or an exit to a garage.  It was strange to see a door like this inside a house.

“Here we are,” said Prussia.  “My awesome home.”

With a sweeping gesture, Prussia pulled the door open, revealing a set of cement stairs that led down into blackness.  He plodded down the steps, waggling his fingers at Canada to signal him to follow.  Canada paused at the top of the stairs.  He wondered if Prussi
How To Be Awesome, Chapter ThreePrussia charged down the street, high on enthusiasm and drunk on beer.  It was a struggle for Canada to keep up with him.  Every time Prussia staggered, Canada tried to anticipate where he was walking, and eventually he found it easier just to give up and lag behind.

“Oh, no,” said Prussia.  “Never do that.”

“Do what?”

“Walk behind.”

Prussia stopped in his tracks, allowing Canada to catch up.  As soon as Canada was at Prussia’s side, Prussia let himself lean on him a little.

“You’ve got to walk with confidence.  Know where you’re going and march there like the sidewa
How To Be Awesome, Chapter TwoThe sun was burning overhead by the time Canada had run out of breath.  He fell against the side of the nearest building.  With his hands on his knees, he stared at the ground as he let the sweat pour down his face.  Silently, he cursed his brother’s name once more.  He forced himself to focus on how angry he was at America, if only to forget how humiliating it was when Taiwan looked at him like that.

“Pathetic,” he panted.  “I’ll never be cool enough to beat America... to impress Taiwan... to even get noticed... or remembered... by anyone!”

Canada sniffed.  A few teardrops joined the sweat that ran down

The mirror hardly bothered to show Canada his reflection.  With a deep breath, Canada glared at the one unruly curl that spiralled awkwardly from the side of his head and wished his genetic inheritance from France had been just a bit smoother.  He reached for his hair gel.

“Empty?” he said aloud.  “But it was more than half full yesterday.”

That was when Canada remembered America’s voice through the bathroom door, earlier that day.

Look out, bro!  I’m borrowing some of your stuff.  I’m sure you won’t mind.

Canada sighed and muttered a few words of resentment.  He told hims
