The Headless Horseman - Hetalia x Male!Reader

It was Halloween and all countries were gathered in (capital/n). They were all dressed up and were ready to tell each other some scary stories. “Gather ‘round” America exclaimed with his mouth full of candy.

Gather 'round and I'll elucidate

What goes on outside when it gets late

Along about midnight the ghosts and banshees

They get together for their nightly jamboree

There's things with horns and saucer eyes

Some with fangs about this size

Some are fat and some are thin

And some don't even wear their skin

I'm telling you, brother, it's a frightful sight

To see what goes on Halloween night

Most countries had told stories about ghosts, banshees, beasts with giant fangs or that don’t have a skin. “(c/n), you haven’t told a story yet” Ukraine commented, other countries looking at the (h/c)  man. “I don’t think you want to hear a story from me, right Japan?” (c/n) asked the country. Japan turned pale and shook his head. “Well, tell us (c/n), please?!” America asked, using his puppy-eyes. “Fine” (c/n) sighed.

When the spooks have a midnight jamboree

They break it up with fiendish glee

The ghosts are bad but the one that's cursed

Is the headless horseman; he's the worst

That's right, he's a fright on Halloween night

The lights were out, the countries couldn’t see anything, they only could hear the voice of the (h/c) country. “If you think ghosts, demons and monsters are bad, than you haven’t heard of the headless horseman” (c/n) started. “He’s the worst”

When he goes a joggin' 'cross the land

Holding his noggin in his hand

Demons take one look and groan

And they hit the road to parts unknown

Beware, take care he rides alone

“On Halloween night, he comes. He rides on a black horse riding across the land. His head in his hand. Only he, but he hasn’t to be with more. Nobody would anyway. Demons look at him and flee away.”

And there's no spook like a spook that's spurned

They don't like him and he's really burned

He swears to the longest day he's dead

He'll show them that he can get a head

“He is spurned by the other spooks, because he doesn’t have a head. But he swore a long time ago, that he’ll show them that he can get a head”

They say he's tired of his flaming top

He's got a yen to make a swap

So he rides one night each year

To find a head in the hollow here

He likes 'em little

He likes 'em big

Parted in the middle or a wig

Black or white or even red

The headless horseman needs a head

“It doesn’t matter what sort of head, but he’ll get one. So every Halloween he rides out. He has the desire to get a head, so he’ll take yours”

With a hip, hip and a clippity clop

He's out looking for a top to chop

So don't stop to figure out a plan

You can't reason with a headless man

Now if you doubt this tale is so

I met that spook just a year ago

Now I didn't stop for a second look

But made for the bridge that spans the brook

For once you've crossed that bridge, my friend

The ghost is through

His power ends

“That’s idiotic” England said, but everyone could hear in his voice that he was also scared. “You doubt my tale?” (c/n) asked. “I met the spook a year ago. Longing for my head,  I didn’t stop to look for a second, my friend. I went straight to the bridge. If you’ve crossed that bridge his power ends.” (c/n) pointed at the bridge in the middle of the street. This was the only building at this side of the bridge and the countries had wondered why.  “Don’t stop to think of a plan, after all you can’t reason with a headless man”

So when you're ridin' home tonight

Make for the bridge with all your might

He'll be down in the hollow there

He needs your head

Look out! Beware!

With a hip, hip and a clippity clop

He's out looking for a head to swap

So don't try to figure out a plan

You can't reason with a headless man

“So when you’re going home tonight, beware. He might just come for your head. Go to the bridge with all your might, you can’t reason with a headless man” Suddenly there was thunder and lightning, everyone screamed startled. Canada was smart enough to put on the lights, but they saw that (c/n) had vanished.

Only a letter was laying on the floor. Russia read the letter out loud.

“I’m not waiting around and recommend you don’t do either

After all you can’t reason with a headless man”
