Hi, I do not own Hawk and Dove. Just so you know, Hawk's real name is Hank Hall, and Dove's is Don Hall. This is about them as kids. Just so you know, this is not a de - aged fanfic. This is their real life. Well, it's not cannon, but it's what their life might have been if it was different. So not canon not deaged. And for my chapter names, I'm going to have who the protector is, then the ages of Hank and Don, Hank first. Let the story begin!

Hank 5 and 0.

"Hank, your brother's here." Hank Hall gasped, and flew to the front door, far ahead of the other guests. He screeched to a halt in front of his tired looking but overjoyed mother, and exuberant father. For this was the day he would first see his little brother, who had just been born. "Here he is."

Hank's mother knelt down so Hank could see his new brother. Brown eyes opened wide with wonder as he stared at the small face of his tiny sibling. Awestruck, he reached out a finger, and watched as a little fist gripped the digit. A radiant smile smile spread across his face, and he felt his world fall into those beautiful, big blue eyes. Hank glanced up, an indescribable joy across his face.

"Can I hold him mommy?"

"Yes dear, but be very careful. He isn't very strong, if you drop him he'll get very hurt." Hank nodded eyes wide, and walked over to a chair sitting down to better hold his brother, and held his arms out, waiting for the precious bundle to be transferred. His mother handed him his new brother. Hank stared down at him in wonder. They stared deep into each other's eyes, each observing the other.

"What's his name?" No one had known what the name would be. They just couldn't decide. They didn't even know if he would have been a boy or a girl.

"His name is Donald." Hank's father said, grinning wide. "After your mom's dad." Hank nodded, he was named after his father's dad, after all. But Donald was such a mouthful! Hank was only 5, he didn't think he could say that!

"Don." He murmured, cradling his little brother. "Don. It's okay Don, don't you worry. I'm going to be the best big brother ever. I promise."
