Montenegro never had its own currency and initially used the 'Deutsche Mark

His legs ached. 

He wanted to stop running. 

To finally find what he was looking for. 

The male glanced around the dark, hallow alleyway and he felt his heart beating fiercely. 

"Tobi?" The male yelled down the alleyway. 

His echo was the only response he got back. 

Be brave... Be brave...

He inhaled sharply and walked down into the alleyway. He was hoping God would give him strength, but he felt nothing, yet he kept going. 

He was hoping he wouldn't find his friend down this alleyway. 

He was hoping his friend was with someone safe and sound. 

His heart sank as he saw a male laying beaten on the ground. The male sprinted towards the other male and fell hard on his knees and hugged the other male to his chest, tears threatening to spill out of his narrowed eyes.

"Tobias-!" 

The male opened his right eye and his left eye was barely opened. It was bruised badly and blood leaked out of his mouth and his glasses were cracked. 

"Hey Ist..." Tobias replied and he smiled softly. 

"You're not leaving me with Roman!" cried Istvan, tears flowing down his face. "You're... Not leaving me.."

"... I thought you didn't like me, especially after the events of WW1 where I got more land then you... Tell my brother I love him..."

"You can tell him yourself! You are not going to die! I.. I love you you too much to let you die Tobi! Hang in there... Please ... Please..."

Tobias glanced up at the Hungarian and smiled. "No matter what happens.. I'll always be there for you."

"Please don't die.. please don't go..." The Hungarian whispered shakily. He didn't want to loose the Austrian, his best friend, his comrade.

"ne hagyj el (don't leave me) ... Life wouldn't be the same, please hang in there..."

The Austrian smiled softly and whispered , "I always hated saying goodbye..."

"It's not going to end like this! P..please stand up.."

The Austrian smiled and the little life left his eyes and it felt like István's heart stopped beating. It felt like a bit of himself died that day and he pressed his head into Tobias' bloody shirt and a waterfall of tears rolled down his tanned cheeks.

"I... Love you and always will..." István replied softly.

Have a good day / night everyone
