chapter one part 2: the young time weaver
Alfred F. Jones was the name and Time Weaveings was the game! Well not really Alfred was still in his early training years only being the age of nine, but he was the top of all the others that the organization was training. Origanaly the young Time Weaver was from the year of 2350, but was told to go with his Clocker,Mr. Russia , to the year of what was it again 1005... 1550... 5001? Whatever that didn't matter, but what did was that he was the first Timer in his group to go to a diffrent time thread he even had his own task! He was just supposed to go collect data from all the towns folk while Mr. Russia had his own special task to complete.
Alfred kidded up some sand with the toe of his boot and watched with boredome as it sailed through the air landing in all other directions. He had been walking for what seemed all ready to be hours (Only half an hour to tell you the truth.) and so far he had learned nothing interesting about this time thread, but it was still far more interesting then sitting around and doing nothing in his castle. Oh, did I fail to mention that our young hero was a prince?
Well he is, the soon to be king of Spades to be more clear. Yep in the year 2350 we are once more ruled by Kings and Queens like in story books you where told as a kid when your mom and dad tried to get you go to bed. As prince Alfred was suppose to live a life of luxary and utter insanely lame manners, but that all changed when the boy came across a strange man weilding a pipe and the reast in history, literaly.
"Hey give that back!", Alfed looked up to see two kids about his age chaseing each other, the timer smiled as he aproched the two who still hadn't noticed him yet. The first boy had light brown hair while the other's was a jet black they both seemed to be fighting about a toy that the boy with the black hair had cluthched firmly in his little hand.
"Hello!", the two boys looked up at Alfred as the prince grinned widely at them. Both boys looked Alfred over suspiciosely and visibly grimanced when they noticed how oddly dressed the boy was. "What do you wan't?", the one with black hair hissed angerly. Alfred's smile falted slightly at the boys vemoness tone but it stayed up none the less, "Do you think that you guys could tell somethings about this town?"
"Why?", the brown haired boy asked while narrowing his eyes. "Well,", Alfred said "It's my jod." The raven haired boy snorted with amusment, "Yeah right! Come on Will this guy is crazier then that old wizard in the woods." Before Alfred could do anything more both boys took off leaveing the prince by himself once more. Letting out a sigh the young timer frowned and started walking towards some small houses where he was some elderly couple sitting.
"Good morning.", an old women said kindly once she noticed Alfred walking toward her. Weakly the prince smiled back in responce, "Good morning to you to, do you think you could tell me something."
"Why of course. What is it?", she pured as her husband continued to snoze on in the chair next to her. "Well I was wondering if you could tell me about the wizard in the woods.", Alfred asked sheepishly while rubbing the back of his head. What the two boys said back there had really spiked his interest and he really wanted to know what they ment by what they said but they ran off before he could ask them.
"Oh the wizard in the woods? My, my, I haven't heard someone ask about him a very long time.", she mummered before clearing out her throat." Very well, the wizard in the wood is one of my own favorite stories so of course I will tell you, sit down.", she comanded, Alfred smiled brightly as he took a seat on one of the of the steps of the porch. "A long time ago a wizard lived in a old cadin in the woods where he would grant the wishes of those who guarned to his home in search of help, but as the years went on the young wizard's heart began to grow dark and cruel and he would no longer help all those who came to him. One day a young lord went to the wizard for help but his heart was of stone and he would not help the lord and instead cursed him into a horrible beast where he was forced to live the rest of his life in exile. Terrified for their lives no one would go up to go see the wizard anymore, angerer by this the wizard swore to hurt those who did come. On certain nights the children of the town would dare each other to journey into the woods to the wizards house and knock on his old oak door, and if they were not fast enough to get away the wizard would catch them and eat your flesh."
Alfred's eyes widened, a man eater, in the woods... thats is so cool! Standing up abrutly the prince bowed at the old women," Thank you for your time." the old women smiled kindly back as she bowed her head in politeness, "Any time."
"Well good bye, have a nice day.", Alfred smiled as he started to walk down the road.
"You to.", she said while while laying back in her chair.
some time later...
There it was the small cadin that the elderly women had told Alfred about just sitting right there all nice and pretty in the shade of all the trees that incerciled it, there was no way a house so nice was home to a man eater but then again thats probly what hansel and gretel thought about the candy housse they found in the woods. The house was in the middle of a small cluster of trees with a meadow to its right, small wildflowers of all colors dotted the porch and the sorounding grass. Mustering up his courage the timer walked up the steps of the small porch and knocked on the door. Alfred waited a couple of minetes before a man with the most vivid green eyes he had ever seen came out and opened the door.
"H-hello", the man stameder before he looked down and saw Alfred standing in front of him with eyes wide and curios.
"Hello are you Mr. kirkland? May I come in?", the green eyed man looked from the timer to his shoulder as if he saw something that no one else could see before he nodded his head. "Yes, you may come in.", Alfred flashed a smile as he walked in. "Thank you.", he chined happly.
The prince looked around the small room and noted how it seemed to give off a warm and welcoming feeling, the walls were painted a soft blue with a white trimming, shelves decorated the walls and each one was loaded with books that looked older then the prince him self, two couches, a love seat, and a large coffe table also made up the room. Alfred walked over to the love seat and sat down makeing himself comfortible, and watched as the green eyed man took a seat acrooss from him, the timer was memorized by not just his eyes but also his hair wich was a sun flower blonde and man did he have some big eyebrows! The biggest the young prince had ever seen in his life, but they fit his face perfectly like as if he were to have normal eyebrows he just wouldn't look right.
"Tell me what brings you here?", the blonde asks. Alfred freezes for a second while trying to come up with reason before he remembered a detail in the old womens tale. "I was dared.", and to prove his point furthur the timer puffed up his chest in what he hoped looked like pride. "They told me that their was a man who lived up here and that he ate peolple if they knocked on his door, but you don't look like a man eater to me.", the prince's face fell as he watched the other man frown and let out a longe sigh.
Worred Alfred quickly tried to change the subject, "You got a real nice house here Mr. Kirkland!" the prince smiled when the brit across from him visible brightened up at the complement. "why thank you.", he said politely before his face turned seriose again,"Well since you were dared to come here and you have clearly passed, plus since I did not eat you, you may leave."
"Leave! But I just got to meet you!", shuffling his feet around in thought Alfred looked down at them chewing his lip softly, "Ummm... well you see,", he then rudded the back of his head as he felt the vivid green eyes stare into him and his checks turned red, "There's really no one waiting for me. I heard a story about you back in town but I needed a reason to come meet you. None of the kids will come play with me because I'm weired for some reason and when I heard a story about a wizard living up here iI had to come and just meet you, and Mr. Russia said it was ok to come because I'm still in training and I should learn everything there is to know about every were, so I did and you seem like a really nice person."
Alfred contieded to chew his lip as the blond in front on him looked at him with look of suprise and disbelief, but calmed down when the man sighed and his face softened, "Very well you may stay here but you must help me out with my daily jods and by the way I'm not a wizard, I'm a magicain."
time skip to Alfred going home...
Alfred sat across the table queitly eating his dinner while a large man with silvery blonde hair and child like purple eyes sat on the other end eating his. After a couple of minites the timer looked up smiling, "You won't believe what happened today Mr. Russia!"
Returning the smile the clocker finnished swollowing the last of the food in his mouth, "Go on."
" I met a magician today he said his name was Arthur! He showed me some of his magic, you should have been there it was so cool! He was like Expeliomos! and then all the things went Swoosh! moveing around all by themselves! It was the greatest thing I have ever seen!", the prince exclaimed as he swung his arms around in movement with his words.
"Thats good.", Russia said "But you didn't give him your real name, da?"
Puffing up his chest Alfred nodded his head with pride," I did just what you told me and gave him my fake name, America!"
Alfed really did feel like the greatest man to ever live I mean look at him he's a prince and a time weaver, plus now he has a magician for a friend! The time the prince spent with the magician seemed to the only thing the timer could think about. Russia noticed this and was happy for him, he knew Alfred was picked on a lot by the other kids because even though he was younger then them he held more promise to be a great clocker some day. As a month went by Alfred went everyday to go see the magicain in the woods and when he came back he never failed to tell Russia what he did that day, whenever Alfred went to go see Arthur his heart would give a short flutter and his checks would burn when ever the magician would turn his green eyes on him. It really was a good time but of course it couldn't last forever.
"Alfred it's time to go back to the main time thread.", the Russian told the prince one afternoon. Alfred looked up at his clocker with misty eyes as he slowly nodded his head while clutching a small golden pocket watch to his chest. Opening it Alfred watched the hands move toward the south where Arthur was.
"Did you tell him good-bye?", Russia asked.
"Yes.", the prince replied with a small voice. Russia nodded as he waved his hand opening a seam in the time thread just big enough for both him and Alfred through.
"Go.", looking back one last time toward the woods Alfred walked through the seam.
thats all for now sorry it took forever to write, you can just imagine the whole opening the seam thing like how they open the portal in kingdom hearts. well bye-bi
