In the dead of night, in the Nordic household, a strange silence had spread. Suddenly, the quiet was broken by the arrival of a staggering figure in the hallway.

The figure was none other than Sweden, the tallest and most frightening of the Nordic 5. His eyes were wide open, but he didn't seem to be awake.

The rest of the Nordic 5 were sleeping peacefully in their rooms until they felt an eerie presence. Awoken, they realized someone was watching them.

Finland, the most easy-going of the group, was the first to recoil in fear. Denmark, the cheerful yet sometimes anxious one, echoed Finland's panic.

"WAAAAH! HE'S GONNA KILL US! AAAAAH!” Finland shrieked. Denmark's voice joined him in alarm, tearing through the silence that once filled the household.

Norway and Iceland, still bleary-eyed and confused, were startled by their friends' panicked cries. They gazed in horror at the sight of a looming Sweden.

Quickly, they all huddled together, their fear growing as Sweden continued to stare blankly at them. The once peaceful Nordic household was now a scene of chaos and fear.

Despite their terror, they knew they had to do something. Finland, gaining a little courage, hesitantly approached the sleepwalking Sweden.

He called out to him softly, trying to wake him. But Sweden, entranced in his sleepwalking state, remained undisturbed and continued his blank stare.

Seeing Finland's unsuccessful attempt, Denmark mustered the bravery to confront Sweden. He thought if he could make Sweden laugh, he'd wake up.

Denmark started telling jokes, putting on a show, doing anything he could to elicit a response. But Sweden's expression remained unchanged.

Norway, known for his calm demeanor, decided to try a different approach. He walked up to Sweden, making sure to not startle him.

He reached out, touching Sweden's shoulder gently. But even this didn't seem to wake him. The Nordics were running out of options.

Iceland, the youngest of the group, was watching everyone's attempts with growing anxiety. He couldn’t shake off the fear of Sweden's piercing stare.

He decided to try a simple method. Carefully, with a shaking hand, he reached out and poked Sweden, hoping to wake him from his stupor.

To everyone's astonishment, this worked! Sweden blinked a few times, looking around in confusion. Iceland's simple poke had woken him from his sleepwalk.

The Nordics sighed in relief, their fear melting away. Finland and Denmark were quick to share their ordeal, explaining what happened. Sweden seemed genuinely surprised.

He apologized, assuring them that he never meant to scare them. Laughing off the strange incident, they all decided to head back to their rooms.

That night, they made sure to lock the door of Sweden's room to prevent another sleepwalking episode. The incident, though frightening, brought them closer.

The next morning, they shared a good laugh about the sleepwalking scare. And thus, the Nordic household returned to its usual calm and peace.

Over breakfast, they all teased Sweden about his sleepwalking adventure. Sweden chuckled, promising to be more aware of his nocturnal activities.

The event was now a fond memory, a funny story to tell. They realized they'd faced their fear together, bonding them even more as a family.

Sweden, though embarrassed, was touched by the concern and care his family showed. He was grateful to be part of such a supportive group.

From that night on, Finland and Denmark often teased Sweden with the “sleepwalker stare”. It became part of their shared inside jokes, strengthening their bond.

The Nordic 5, through this unusual adventure, learned to face their fears together. They grew closer, cherishing each other's company even more.

Despite the initial fear, the sleepwalking incident became a humorous memory for them. It served as a reminder of their unity and their ability to tackle challenges together.

The sleepwalking stare incident, though fearful at first, eventually brought laughter and bonding amongst the Nordic 5. Even in fear, they found unity and friendship.

And so, life in the Nordic household went back to normal. The Nordics, however, always looked back on that night with fond laughter and closeness.

In the end, they all agreed. The sleepwalking scare was not an ordeal but an unforgettable adventure that brought them even closer as a family.

And Sweden, always the protective figure, promised to seek help for his sleepwalking. He was determined not to cause another midnight scare in the Nordic household.

Thus, the simple incident of sleepwalking ended up contributing to the ever-growing bond of the Nordic 5. Together, they had faced the fear and emerged stronger.

The Nordic 5, now more united than ever, continued their daily lives with added care and affection for each other. And so, the tale of the sleepwalking scare became a cherished anecdote for the Nordic family.

Their hearts slept soundly each night, knowing that they weren't just friends but a family. And in a family, every scare is just another adventure to embrace together.

As for Sweden, he was deeply touched by his family's concern. He couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth each time he remembered that night.

And hence, their unique story of shared fear and shared laughter became a testament to their strong bond, reminding them of their unity in the face of any ordeal.
