Alex was in capable of protecting people, until he met Rose Turner. He wouldn't let her out of his sight, the only person he cared for, the only ever person he would truly love. He kept him close to her at all times, hurt any person who dared look at her. She realised when it was all too late. He had forgotten how to protect her somewhere along the way and had ended up trapping her instead. The endless screams, the endless fights, the danger and the damage. It can only end one way. Happy ever after, right?
Scott has always been a risk taker, but only because he has never managed to get seriously injured. Protected, his aunt would always tell him, by God himself. He just brushed it off. She was super religious, and he was more of an Atheist. And why would the 'Great Creator' protect him? When he is almost killed, he finally learns what was really protecting him. And he never would have suspected.
Mitch has always loved protecting people, especially after he himself was shot and stabbed multiple times, his own protector unable to save him. So now he protects those like him. Fifty years he has been doing this. And never before has he had a Ward quite like this one.

"What are you?"
"A friend. Or I think of you as a friend. Alex said Humans viewed it differently than we did." The dark haired boy shrugged. "It has been so long that I don't actually remember."
"Okay. But those! What are those!?"
"Well...they're wings."
