3The first installment,[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8019053/1/The_bFangirl_b "The Fangirl"]], is about Sherry Sue: a France X England shipper with an irrational hatred for the ever unpopular Seychelles. One day, she wakes up to discover that she is stuck in Seychelles's body until she can get either France or England to fall in love with her (thus ruining her favorite pairing). She is guided along the way by Turkey, AKA: Sadiq Adnan. But he is dealing with a secret of his own-- one from a being called "The Voice".

With his mentor Alfred F. Jones, he has to get a guy named Gilbert to drink a vial of something unknown or else his not-girlfriend might die.
