The Bird Tamer

"Why so many ruffles",he groaned as he adjusted the collar to his white longsleve.

It was perfectly tucked into his black pants, which made his slender waist stand out more. As well for his broad shoulders, the clothes you'd lent him were very different to the his clans clothes. While his were lose and skin showing, these were tight and hide all of his body except for his hands and face. Not to mention the holes you had cut out for his wings to properly fit I.

"Can't say, but this is the most we can do considering the giant wings",you pointed out

He only groaned in protest as you lead him out the door. For the first time in what seemed years he stepped outside on his own. The bars that had always made the world seem so far away were gone. His eyes eagerly stared up to the sky, a hand on his back gently shoved him forward and that was enough for him as he took off. A laugh escaped him as he soared through the sky, as he flew tears filled his eyes he wasn't sure if it was the excitement or the wind.

You watched from below as he flew around, your heart clenched up. How much had he endured to act like a kid who'd never tasted the freedom of the world.

"Captain",a male voice called out making your head turn,"We've got a new report."

"Alright show me",you spoke as he handed you a letter, your eyes scanned over it each word making your heart drop,"Is this information trustworthy?"

"Yes, we verified with a couple of people."

Your blood ran cold,"This can only mean..."

You didn't get to finish the sentence as screams and smoke began filling the air. Giant balls of flames began falling from the sky.

"Go! Get everyone ready!",you ordered as they took off.

You wasted no time as you ran, bow in hand you  reached for the arrows placed neatly on your back. You aimed and released watching them fly towards the intruders, your focus solely on them. Flames began growing everyone, ashes flying and filling up the air. Everyone around either running or fighting, the smoke had darkened the sky so much you couldn't make out Keigo anywhere you wouldn't blame him if he'd ran.

"Watch out!",someone screamed but it was to late as a giant ball of fire came hurtling towards you.

You could only stare in horror, you clenched your eyes shut waiting for the impending doom.

"(Y/n)!",just like that your feet were off the ground and in someone's arms. You slowly opened them and gaspes,"Hey kid."

"Keigo, I thought you...",you just stared at him dumbfounded

"I ran? I wanted to but I made myself a promise so how about we finish this?",He smirked

You returned his eagerness,"Fly near them, I need to be able to see them."

"You've got it kid",he flappped his wings eagerly, as he did it helped in clearing the air giving you a good view at what you were aiming

Men only a few feet away from the town, were loading catapults. Each with a giant of carbon, each loaded and turned on aimed for the town. You clicked your tongue, as you pulled out an arrow and aimed, you whispered a soft "please" as you let the arrow fly. You watched As it pierced the men's throat as he fell his companions, going into a frenzy searching for the owner of the arrow.

"Nice one kid, next one",He spoke but the blood lust radiating off him had your skin crawling.

"Keigo, put me down and help me bring justice",you turned towards him and froze his eyes were so cold and were shinning?

He wasted no time as he set you down and in second he was off towards the men, you watched as his feathers became his weapon. Each one flew off like daggers and implemented themselves into one of the enemies men. He moved so swiftly cutting each one down, he was dancing. A dance of red as crimson blood flew everywhere, you gasped and without thinking let an arrow go. It hit the figure that'd been sneaking behind him, he turned a surprised look on his face. He then gave you a thumbs up, as be swiftly killed your arrows flew penetrating their marks.

"Captain! More are coming! We don't have enough men! We're going down"

"Captain!"

Your mind was going blank, things had been looking so good but yet somehow the universe was against you. The lettee confirmed the attack however it failed to confirm the time and date, which is how things had to come to this. You were a small amount if you kept this up everyone would die but if you ran who knows what'll happen to tbe towns people.

Think, come on! Dammit! A hand softly landed on your shoulder making you look up

"Let me",Keigo spoke softly

"That's a suicidal mission",you replied

"Exactly",he smiled softly,"Just give me the orders captain."

You sighed, but managed a smile,"Give them hell."

He saluted turned and flew off gone in seocnds.

"Captain can we trust him?",a spiky red haired boy asked

"It seems you aren't aware Kirishima",you spoke as you stared after him,"Did you see those wings?"

"Yes."

"Then that's enough to let you know he's from the Fanalis clan",you spoke as the boy face filled with realization

They were a clan of winged people admired for their beauty and obviously wings but they were feared. Their skills in combat were no joke not to mention the abilities their feathers possessed, as soft as a regular feather but as sharp as a knife in seconds. They lived quietly in the desert away from any towns or major kingdom's. That is until the late king found money in them, selling their wings as trophies, killing them for sport. How he managed it no one knew now only a few remained, you recognized him the moment his feathers took on a sharp appearance only the Fanalis being able to do that.

You let out a shaky breath, in all honestly you knew He was powerful but seeing him in action had left your knees weak.

"Captain!",You turned around quickly as kirishima jumped and using a shield managed to redirect an arrow

"Stand down, I've got this. Go gather everyone near the North exit!"

"Yes!",he bowed and took off, that's what you liked about him, he believed in you so he didn't hesitate.

"My turn",you turned towards the incoming attackers
