(Yes... Edward's tiny deer form is the picture above... Deer in Wonderland tend to be tiny and chubby when they are fawns. So yes.. Edward looks exactly like this when he changes his form. It was the closest thing to how he looks as a fawn, so deal with it. Also any encounters in this book are only a piece of the AU so don't get anyone else's AU's mixed up with mine please, this is completely different, thank you. So please don't go asking "Golden Sans, I don't remember you being a part of this story" or "GoldenFireFriendstale is that how this happened?" NO! Theses AU's and my AU are completely separate. Please have some brains and respect, thanks. Now you may read. )























Edward was walking through the hall when Charlotte came from around the corner and jumped out yelling "BOO!" The poor deer prince yelled like a baby goat and he turned into a baby deer. Charlotte saw this and she was in awe. "AWWWWWWWWWWWWW! YOU'RE SO CUTE!" She picked him up. "H-Hey! Put me down!" He starts yelling like an actual baby deer and she carried him like a baby. She rubs his belly and he just went limp and his eyes dilated and his little pink tongue stuck out, as his tiny fluffy tail began to wag happily. This indicated that he enjoyed the belly rub. Charlotte giggled and continued to gently rub his belly. "Good thing Madam Prim hasn't found out about you yet. " She smiled. "That I haven't found out about who, my darling?" Madam Prim was behind her. She squeaked from fright and so did poor little Edward. He began to scream like the baby fawn he was and started to kick his tiny legs. "Turn around and let me see, Charlotte.  What is that creature?" Madam Prim asked and when Charlotte turned, Madam Prim saw the chubby little fawn in her arms. "That is the most unusual deer that I have seen in my entire life." Madam Prim said. Charlotte put the little fawn down and Edward just hid behind Charlotte and went under her skirt to hide from Madam Prim. 

"Well, you see... He's not a deer from Candle Cove, miss. He's from a world called Wonderland. I went into the forbidden library and I took a portal realm book. It had some odd dust inside, and when the dust hit my book, it created a portal realm to Wonderland. His name is Edward.. Edward Drew... He is a royal. He is the son of the King and Queen of Hearts. He's the prince of Wonderland. It's my fault he's here. I know what I did was wrong, but when he got here, he was injured. So I took it upon myself to look after him. All that I say is true." Charlotte said and Madam Prim laughed, "Do you think me a fool, Charlotte?" She asked and Charlotte shook her head quickly. "N-No! I'm telling the truth! Edward is a prince! Show her Eddie!" She said as she uncovered the little fawn from her skirt and he shook from fear and he had his eyes covered by his little hooves. His ears were lowered and his tail was curled in. Edward looked up at Madam Prim and with his head bowed he turned back into a human boy. Madam Prim looked up and down at Edward. She observed him from head to toe. "Why didn't you inform me?" She asked Charlotte. "We were afraid you wouldn't let him stay... We've tried everything to get him back to his world but we don't know how."

" Did the book glow green when you tried opening a portal to Wonderland?" Madam Prim asked. Charlotte nodded and Madam Prim sighed. "You can't open it back up unless he can prove something is more important than his life. A green book means that he must prove to make seven impossible things that he finds impossible to come true... It's rare any magician, warlock, witch or wizard has come across this in ages... And you should be ashamed of yourself, Charlotte. " Charlotte bowed her head and sighed, "I know, and I am sorry. I should've listened. I'll take any punishment, but please let Edward stay? He's got nowhere else to go. " Madam Prim nodded. "If anyone sees him, they'll find out he's not from this world for sure and that can ruin not only him but all of us here at the theater. We have to disguise him as one of us."




























Madam Prim came back with an outfit from one of the props in the theater and had fixed it up. "Here.." It was a Nutcracker outfit. "I'm not wearing that ridiculous outfit. " Edward said quickly.  "Then we will be in danger. No one must find out who you are or you'll be in danger the most and they'll take advantage of you, and use you. " Madam Prim stated and Edward went and changed. His suit was black with gold buttons and she gave him the hat. "You'll need to hide your antlers. File them down if you must but you need to hide your ears and antlers. " Edward nodded and did as told. He managed to hide his ears and antlers. "Welcome, Wooden Soldier. " Edward smiled when she gave him his theater name. When he walked out, everyone smiled when they saw him. "Don't worry, Eddie. We'll find a way to get you back to your kingdom." Charlotte said with a smile.
