Czech's victorious face was very short lived when she was suddenly grabbed and tossed like a ragdoll then found herself being held down.
Her eyes widen in what looked like shock. At first she saw that the pressure point worked much to her delight only to find him pinning her down like it had little effect on him.
This proved only more that he was very powerful. Besides Russia whenever she pulled a dirty trick like that on someone it worked like a charm making them imbolised for at least three minutes in order to fully breath properly again. Czech did pride herself in punching with all she got if she was sparring. But of course America was no just 'someone' he was The United freaking States of freakin America!
Her eyes narrowed into a death glare ignoring the question he had asked. It didn't serserve an answer. She tried to push off of him yet found that this was one tough spot that she was in. However she was not one to give up even when things looked (or were) hopeless.
"Get. Off."

America smiled down at Czech as she struggled. He already knew he had the advantage here. He was far stronger than she was, so no matter what she tried to do, he wouldn't be budging. Hell, even the stronger male countries were unable to knock him off, with maybe the exception of one or two. Czech, though, wouldn't be able to move him. She was strong, that was for sure, but she wasn't strong enough. He felt bad saying it, but he most certainly won this duel.
"Nope." He grinned, ignoring the death glare she was sending his way. "Face it, Czech. I won fair and square! You're just not strong enough to win." Realizing what he said was slightly rude, he corrected himself. "I mean, you're strong enough, but I've always had unnatural strength. Nothing against you. You fought very well!"
Praise might be able to help her get that evil look off her face.

The look remained on her face a dark aura beginning to forming all around her. If she were Russia she'd probably be muttering 'kolkolkol' under her breath. Her eyes flashed like blue-green fire; she was not a sore loser...she just hated when the other oponent bragged about it. She also hated to be pinned down.
Her smile returned. But it was the kind of smile she would give when she was about to strangle someone.
"You are so lucky that I am a good girl...otherwise I'd have attacked your 'lower regions' by now..."
Despite her current state when his praise reached her ears she paused in responce. He complimented her strength...? A blank look came over her which was far better than the last look she was giving suddenly a large sweet smile returned as a look of what seemed to be delight was present in her eyes. She loved to be complimented on her strength, espcially by nations who mattered.
"Thank you America!"
Czech tried to grab him in one of her back breaking hugs only to realize that she was still pinned down. She gave a rather sheepish look.
"Um...America you can let go now...Its not like I'm going to kill you once you let go!"
A sweet, sweet smile touched her face clearly unaware of the looks she had been giving off moments before.

America swallowed nervously when she said that about his "lower regions". He recognized this form of Czech. This was the form that she had no control over, that would randomly pop out in times of need. The last time (and the first time, if he recalled correctly) he faced this other Czech was at gunpoint, and he wasn't in a hurry to ever face her again.
But here she was.
He tightened his grip involuntarily, and was about to call for help or something when she suddenly changed once more. This time, she was right back to the sweet nation she normally was. The sudden switch made America blink and he hardly caught her next sentence. Which was probably one of the more ironic things he had heard recently.
"You sure about that?" he asked with a nervous smile. "You got kinda creepy for a moment there."

She paused looking at him with confusion then took a closer look at the look he was giving off. It was then she realized that it must have been the other Czech's doing. Oh how she hated her double personality...the other Czech was so...pushy and very tempermental...and not tp mention overprotective. The young nation figured that all the abuse from the other nations forced her to create someone who would protet since no one would or could. But did she always have to reer her head around when it was inconvient?
She giggled it off.
"I'm sorry America!" She cried sincerely. "You know the how the other Czech is...she'll show her face at the most random times! But now she's gone so maybe you could um...let me go?"
After her request she looked up at him with her infamous Czech Pout her eyes growing big and shiny and and her lip jutting out just slightly in the most sweetest and pitiful pouts almost like a puppy's. All in all she was probably one of the cutest things anyone could lay eyes on. It was her one way of assuring that she got whatever she wanted and right now she wanted to tackle him in a hug!

America surveyed her with cautious eyes before finally sighing and releasing the grasp he had on her. He had to trust his fellow nations, after all. It wouldn't do to hold one in a suspicious manner while trying to save the world from harm. Nope, he would let go and allow the others to actually do what they said they would. And Czech said she wouldn't hurt him. He trusted her to keep to that promise.
"Just so long as you don't go for my, uh, lower regions," he teased, grinning as he stood. He brought Czech up with him, brushing off the dirt on her shoulder. Or imaginary dirt. Maybe he was just giving himself things to do so that he wouldn't seem nervous. After all, he didn't want to make Czech feel uncomfortable any. She couldn't exactly control when her weird alter ego came out and about. In fact, America pitied the girl- no matter what she did, whether it be fighting for her life or messing around with another nation, there was always the possibility that Cezch's other self would come out.
"Is there any way we can't somehow get you to control your darker side?" he asked curiously. "I mean...why is she around in the first place? Maybe we can get her away if we fix whatever situation brought her about."

Once released and helped up she grabbed him around the waist and hugged him tightly a large very pleased smile on her face. She loved most of her fellow nations dearly and loved to show them with her hugs. Czech remembered that the most wonderful feeling she had ever felt was whenever her mother would hug her, her embrace was always strong yet gentle at the same time with more warmth than a fire. Being that she loved to make others happy she thought that hugs were one of the best things that she could give. And each one she gave she put lots of love and warmth in them.
She came to a complete halt at his question letting him go around the waist so that she could hug his arm much like a child would when afraid. Czech couldn’t help herself; her past was not the happiest full of much pain and suffering and just thinking about it made her instinctually nervous.
Giving a rather awkward smile up at America she giggled. “Well um…uh…that might be a bit…complicated. The main reason why she is here is because of other nations.” She was quick to stop her speaking not sure if she should remark on those said nations behind their back. However they were nowhere near so she figured that it would be better to just let it out like the blunt young lady she normally was.
“It’s mostly Russia and Germany’s fault…they tormented me mentally and physically because I refused to give into their desires to control me.” She shuddered thinking back…she was terrified of Germany when he was near but with Russia…just hearing his name back then sent her into hiding. She was still very young not fully developed over those years of oppression. She had learned to at last forgive them both knowing that all nations made…mistakes. But it did earn her a fear for the two.
“Since England and France couldn't…wouldn't help me I suppose my subconscious created someone who would.”

America listened to her story, biting his tongue as he did so. "Wow. That must have been awful," he mumbled, staring down sadly at her. He couldn't imagine what her life was like before, with the torment and lack of aid. He would have been terrified. He didn't even know if he could take something like that.
He stood awkwardly, mulling over what she said. Would all nations have such a strange alter ego? He knew most of them had been through quite a lot. Would they all be as strongly affected as Czech was, or had she just been through more than any one of them? Could it happen to anyone? What if they all developed alter egos after fighting undead creatures and being turned to nothing less than mortals. The thought scared him, and he realized the position she must be in.
He pulled her closer into a hug, rubbing gently at his back. "Still," he continued. "Maybe there's some way to control it. Maybe a strong emotion can keep it under lock and key. Like, if it ever comes out, maybe you can somehow push it away."

Czech flashed him a smile. “It wasn’t that bad America! Really it wasn’t…it was just…difficult for someone young to deal with that’s all.” She bit her bottom lip…usually she hated making excuses for others and making excuses for herself made her feel even more horrible but she didn’t want anyone to think that she wanted their sympathy. Why when she thought about what the older nations had to go through it made her life such a speck in comparison.
She welcomed his hug smiling warmly to it. She loved America’s hugs; they were always so strong yet gentle all at once. Czech gave a thoughtful look at his suggestion. “A way to control it…?” She wouldn’t lie, she had thought about it often but it seemed rather hopeless since she had tried for years. Of course those years were very peaceful and there was no need for the other Czech to come out of that part of her mind…but now that they were in this time of darkness it provided many chances for the other Czech to show herself.
“Hmm…but what kind of emotion like that would help? I mean she seems to appear when my body senses ‘danger’. What could push that back?”

America mulled over her question, trying to figure everything out. "Well," he started, adjusting the glasses on his face. "If she only comes out when you're in danger, perhaps you could get some sort of...of bodyguard. Like, someone to stick with you whenever danger strikes. If you have someone you trust protecting you from the danger, it might make it easier to deal with it." Of course, he wasn't sure if that was true or not. It seemed possible. Really, the only thing they could do would be to try.
"Of course, if we can't do that, we would want to focus more on emotions. Perhaps you could think of something- or someone- you really love." He didn't want to limit her to a material object. If she had another nation she cared strongly about, it might be in her best interests to think of that nation rather than anyone else. Or anything else. Whichever.
He didn't know how they were to practice keeping her dark side in, though. He didn't just want to randomly put her life in danger to see if his theory would work.

Czech giggled at his answer thinking that it was a joke. Well then again this was the nation who thought that a superhero would solve their global warming problem with him you never knew. Decided that she didn't want to hurt his feelings just in case he wasn't joking she flashed him a smile. "Maybe you can be my bodyguard America!" She squeezed her arms around his waist so tight that it was close to cutting off the circulation.
Someone she loved? "Well I have many loved ones America! There are my brothers, Poland and Slovakia...then there are my sister Slovenia...my Cousins, Russia, Belarus and Ukraine..." Though her three cousins weren't the most...loving they were still family and needed to be regarded as such!
Her eyes brightened. It was a very good idea! And it was a least worth testing! Turning to America she grinned happily showing that she was excited by the idea of trying this out to see if it would work. "Lets try it out America!"

"Try it...?" America blinked a few times, trying to comprehend that statement. At first, he thought she was referring to him being her bodyguard, but after a couple of seconds passed, he realized she meant that they should try making her angry to see what would happen. He was vaguely reminded of the Incredible Hulk.
"W-Well, I dunno if that's a good thing to try," he stammered, rubbing at his cheek. It had already taken him a lot of persuasion to actually hit her, even gently. Putting her life in danger was something he certainly wasn't willing to do. "Like, uh, maybe we can test it next time there are zombies. I really don't want to have to put you through that, Czech, not on purpose. The whole reason we'd test it would be to stop it, and..."
And it made sense to test it before doing anything. It was an experiment, wasn't it? Ugh, no, that made it sound even worse. He didn't want one of his fellow nations to be an experiment. But, it could better her understanding with how to control her alter ego. But she'd be an EXPERIMENT! America fumbled around nervously with his hands. "I-I dunno about this..."

Czech pouted...she sometimes acted like a spoiled child when she didn't get what she wanted. Though one could also argue that she was perhaps a little too ambitious and ready and willing to do whatever it takes to get what she wanted. And right now she felt that testing America's theory was best done now in a controlled setting rather than somewhere out on the field where she might have another mishap with a firearm!
She decided that it was time to put on her game face...meaning the 'lost and abandoned kitten' face that no one could refuse. Yes she was going to use her 'Czech Pout'. "America..." She looked up at him with big shiny eyes her lip jutted out. "I think that this would be safer done in here than in the field don't you?" She batted her eyelashes at him nuzzling his arm like a child would.
"Just try it once...just one time and I promise I will never ask you again...so please, please pretty please?"

It was the pout that got him. He had spent years perfecting his own pout, so he knew a good pout when he saw one.
That was a good pout.
"Fine," he mumbled, blushing from the fact that he actually agreed to it based only on her expressions. Now he knew how England must feel at times. "But I won't actually put your life in absolute danger." He wasn't going to harm her in any way, as easy as that would be to actually bring out her alter ego. At most, he'd roughhouse with her just slightly, but even that seemed to be going too far for him.
He took a few steps back from her, narrowing his eyes as he tried figuring out how exactly he should bring out that nasty alter ego of hers. "How do ya want me to do this?" he asked, raising his eyebrows. "'Member, I'm not gonna hurt you."

She pondered it over resting her elbow in one of her hands while tapping her chin in a thoughful gesture. How to bring the other Czech out...now that was a tough question. It wasn't really the question of how...more of what...
"Well there is the time when Cousin Belarus almost broke one of a my arms..." Which she did because Russia hugged her when he greeted her. "Then there is the time when Denmark tried to strangle me..." Just another one of their silly power disputes which he shook off with that usual goofy grin on his face. "Hmm...maybe..." Her eyes brightened as she came up with the perfect solution!
"America lets just fight like we did before but...you use your full force on me!" Her smile grew wide knowing that, that would warrent the other Czech to come out without a doubt. "Now you don't really hit me...just act like you are and I'll dodge until I can't keep up and then she comes out!" She flashed him a reassuring grin. "I promise you won't hurt me if you do...she'll come out before that time!" Pausing she gave a serious look to America.
"But if we do, do this you have to have your guard up...do not let up no matter what...because if she comes out and you aren't prepaired she will hurt you...badly."
