Doppelganger
is an Axis Powers Hetalia Fan Fic by Jenni N. It is still a work in progress.
The nation's hatreds have gained physical forms and are inciting their people into violence, forcing the nations to work together in order to save life as we know it. Despite the ominous summary, Doppelganger is an exciting story that, while grim in some places, is packed full of adventure and heartwarming moments. An excellent read high on the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism.
