Second Entry [Action / Video]

[reckless_eagle]

[Hey, America. Remember when Poland was all on about going back to his room and behaving?]

[He was lying. Like a dog. He can't believe you bought that, for real!]

[So thanks to, you know, circumstances, Poland's latent proclivity towards delinquency rebellion is manifesting a few centuries earlier than it otherwise might have. Germany, Prussia, Russia, and Austria would all probably be utterly unsurprised to know that he's gotten himself mixed up with the little insurgent movement that's forming, and, having done some highly inadvisable improvised explosive stuff with black powder to open his door (since it's the only explosive he knows of, and the battering ram thing wasn't working so hot this time, and he couldn't reach any pickable lock, and the sliding-the-bolt-up-with-something-thin trick didn't turn out so great either), is now is out roaming the halls and making trouble.]

[Lavi wanted a distraction, and if they need more distracting than an armor-clad trap walking around, crossbows akimbo, shooting cameras and setting off alarms all over the place and grinning... Well, he could doubtless come up with something, but that seems like enough for now ♥]

[Various video cameras, both America's and the Mansion's, might pick up glances of him, just before they get crossbow'd into utter nonfunctionality, either with a bolt or a heavy blow from the butt end. He might not be technologically advanced, but by God, he can smash stuff!]

[Canon doesn't show Poland wearing one, but it DOES show him holding Mass during battle like, a month before the time I took him from, so it'd be WEIRD if he didn't have at least one on him.]

Keep it to yourself! I totally don't want to see it!

[He isn't so caught off guard by the gun this time... but he needs time to reload the crossbow between shots, one huge disadvantage they have over modern weapons. So he's moving before America starts shooting, which isn't enough to keep him from getting hit, but it's enough that he only gets hit once, the bullet slicing through his armor and grazing his side as he runs. He hardly feels it through the adrenaline.]

[As fast as he can without messing up, he reloads the crossbow and steps further into the hallway and away from the corner, ready to shoot the instant America comes into view.]

You should be used to it by now!

[Fair enough. But yes. Shooting time oh crap corners make it hard to shoot around. He gets up against the wall and tries to creep along the wall like Jack Bauer to see if he can peer along the corner.

He'll try to stick his arm out enough to take a shot, but yeah, he's not seeing very well.]

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

What's that even supposed to mean?!

[Yeah, Poland sees that hand sneaking out, and he crouches down low enough that anyone trying to hit a normal man's torso or head is going to miss.]

[Taking another crossbow bolt out in his off-hand to be able to reload quicker, Poland takes aim at America's exposed hand and shoots again, aiming to make him drop his gun. If he doesn't have that, making him stop all this stupid crazy stuff will be a lot easier...]

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

[And the arrow flies and catches him in the arm. Owfuck. He does indeed drop his gun and pulls his arm back, pressing against the wall and stares at the arrow sticking out. He grits his teeth and works on trying to pull it out, giving Poland a few moments to regather his wits.]

[Success! Now, to get in between America and the gun so he can't just pick it back up and keep shooting.]

[He does so, kicking the gun behind him so that it goes skittering most of the way down the hall. While America's pulling out the arrow, he's reloading, and by the time he's done, he's got the crossbow aimed at him again and his confident little smile back in place.]

Ready for this to be over? 'Cause I like, guarantee you 100%, every other person here so is.

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

[And the gun is kicked away, and America glares, gripping his arm. Though, the cross bow pointed at him is rather unsettling, though expected. Damn terrorists.

He straightens up, eyes narrowed... though when Poland finishes speaking, he grins.]

I'll never surrender!

[Yeah, remember that taser he had from before? Back out and shot at him.]

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

W-What the-- [The initial shock of it makes Poland drop his weapon, but it takes several seconds--longer than someone as small as him would normally be able to hold out--before he crumples to the ground, still conscious but unable to regain control of his body for the time being]

[He groans, twitching] ...C-Christ...

[idkmybfftony.livejournal.com]

[Seeing Poland go down makes him brighten exponentially, and he watches him twitch a moment, just to be sure.]

Now, now! I warned you!

[And he'll pick Poland up like he weighs nothing and sling him over one shoulder.]

Now to put you somewhere so the swine flu doesn't spread!

[reckless-eagle.livejournal.com]

Let... Let go of me! Creep!

[Okay, so he doesn't have... the best control over his movements, but he can move, which means he can squirm, so he's doing that, trying to make America drop him.]
