Part 1-2( or more)
{ this my personal au :) I had this rolling in my mind for a year now and I think I happy with the flow. Also, I made Ivan older than his sisters }

Alfred's wings beat above the white-haired prince's head making the boy look up at him. Alfred smiled down at him

" hello prince Ivan," he said happily towards his friend. Ivan smiled back

" Hello, Alfred " Alfred closed his wings and fell to the ground and land on his feet. Ivan always was amazed by how Alfred flys he was better than most kids his age. And he's only 6! Ivan also was jealous of Alfred he had wings when Ivan didn't. Alfred smiled softly

" what are you doing," he asked looking at the paper in front of the prince. Ivan looks back at his paper it held a few different types of birds he was trying to draw.

" I'm drawing birds ...... I have drawn a dove " he said pointing at the bird he mentioned. Alfred nods and study it and smiled.

" it's really good you got the proper placement of the wings and feet" Alfred praised sitting down next to Ivan his wings brushing against Ivan's sides making the prince hold back his laughs as Alfred wings were tickling him. Alfred looks around it was calm making his wings relax.

" I kinda wish I had wings like you," Ivan said quietly. Alfred turns to him and thinks.

" I can't get you wings but " Alfred lifts his wings and moves them so he could reach them he quickly runs his hands against his wings. A few feathers came to lose his wings went back to rest against his back as he finds something to use as strings. He luckily found some fishing lines. He tied the feathers together and made the string into a necklace and runs back to Ivan " I can do this " he says slipping it over Ivan's head. Ivan looks startled but then smiled

" thanks " Alfred smiled and sits down next to Ivan.

" think of it as a promise that I will all ways be your wings?" Alfred promised then looks puzzled " that didn't make sense.... but you get what I mean right?!?" He said happily not looking at Ivan anymore but the land around them.

" yeah," Ivan smiled softly looking down at the feathers in awe.

~ two years later ~

Ivan and Alfred are both eight. Ivan was spending most of his time watching his little sisters Lydia and Natalya (correct me if I'm wrong but I think that's their names ;-; ). Alfred was handpicked by the queen to be their protector so he was training most of the time. Ivan watched his sisters play with each other's as Alfred was overhearing a few guards talking about overthrowing the royals. Alfred kept quiet as he saw the head guard behind him freeze Alfred looks up at him and the head guard quickly motions towards the throne room and both walked calmly towards it. Alfred's eyes look back towards the room that the traitors where. Alfred looks up at the queen and king the head guard bows so does Alfred his wings add to the bow as they swept to the side casting a shadow over the floor. The queen nodded and let us stand up. The head guard talks about what he heard at the very end he was cut off as a chant was heard the head guard turns to Alfred and commanded him

" Alfred help the prince and princesses flee and stay with them and protect them with your life" he demanded Alfred could only nod and takes off the castle had a big opened window so the winged guards could defend the castle quickly. Alfred wings tucked in as he dove out of the window nearly getting hit with an arrow he heard fighting behind him and guards yelling at each other. Alfred flys and spots a patch of white hair he quickly turns and drops into the clearing startling the young royalty. Alfred looks back at the castle and sees a few guards fly out of the window. He turns to Ivan

" We have to go now " he turns back around and scooped up the two princesses who were starting to cry in fear.

" what's happening?!?" Ivan said almost tripping on his scarf as he stood and runs towards them. Alfred didn't answer as he shoved Ivan's sister into Ivan's arms. Alfred pulls his swords out. He eyes the guards as he looks for any way to escape. The woods there was a cave Alfred found it was very hidden. Alfred puts one sword back and grabs Ivan's arm and starts running letting go when Ivan starts to follow him. He pulls out his other sword as he ran he used it to lifted the foliage away from the cave

"go quickly," Alfred said quietly as he looked around. Ivan walked in looking around putting his sister down as he looked at Alfred enter the cave. The foliage was blocking the light slightly. Alfred puts his swords up. he frowns as he stayed silent.

" Alfred?" Lydia asked quietly Alfred looks at her "what's happening " she asked again.

" I... " was all Alfred got out before loud talking interpreted him.

" they got away " was hissed into the air. Alfred quietly turns around and watched the cave entrance. " he's not going to be happy that we lost the prince and princess it was are one job to kill them!!" It yells before a bang

" be quiet fool they have ears you know and a protector!" One of them leaned up against the cave but of course, tumbled backward and spins to face Alfred. Alfred quickly takes both swords out his wings opened to block the view from the royals. The other guard runs in and snarled both had wings. Alfred didn't waste any time as he slashed at them both his sword hit the first guy his other sword barely missed the second guy. Alfred hissed as his shoulder was hit by the second guy's blade. Alfred attacks again this time hitting both. Getting one's wing and the other chest. The one he got in the wing screamed like a banshee. He honestly didn't blame the dude it must hurt. The one he got in the chest had slumped to the ground his sword had slid into his chest. He heard Natalya and Lydia scream in fear. It broke his heart so he quickly killed the other dude he looked down at his armor and he was covered in blood. Alfred turns away and towards the prince and his sisters. Ivan's eyes landed on Alfred's shoulder.

" We have to leave follow me.... the head guard set up a haven in the town of Terwer," Alfred says quickly. Terwer is a large town, known for the battle of Terwer. A battle that happened along time ago. And it extreme loyalty to the crown. Alfred pulls his sword out of the one guy's chest and quickly puts it way. His other sword was put away as well he looked behind him to make sure they were following. They where he looks away and kept walking.
Ivan could only watch Alfred with worry his shoulder had been hit and was spilling blood all over the forest leaving a small trail of course Ivan was smarter then he acted he made sure to cover the blood trail by kicking dirt over it his sister joined in and claims that it was fun as they giggled. Alfred looks back at us and smiled before turning away and walking again. Terwer came into view a guard spotted Alfred and ran over. He spots Ivan and his sister and waved them over.

" prince you're safe here we heard what happened and are town welcome you with open arms " he quickly supports Alfred and drags a fighting Alfred that was complaining that he could walk. Ivan picks his sisters up and walks after Alfred refusing to let Alfred out of his sights. The guard took Alfred to a small castle-like building and sits him down in a chair Alfred sighs and shifted his wings so they fit right. The guard heals Alfred or well tends to Alfred's wounds and leaves. Alfred didn't look up for a moment before standing and walking towards them.

" Welcome to Terwer the home of the loyal and the brave and now the home of the royal family," Alfred said softly.
