I meant to put these out on Halloween. Oof. I'll be finishing up a plethora of these when I can as well as all the asks! Thank you guys for sending them.
Yes it's an AU, where they are the fabled super rangers mentioned in Widfali a few times. Wicks and Lynette love em'.
Can I get a little WIDFALI treat please? Possibly Drake? 🥺
Here's a little Widfali treat of Drake. XD
I actually had a small side thing I was writing with Drake that I might post soon. And thanks to you, and my friend @novorehere, I have an idea to throw at my followers while they are waiting on me to put down the next chapter. It's a "Halloween special" that I have to finish drawing something for.
NOW HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY AS ALWAYS (NONNEGOTIABLE) AND THANK YOU FOR THE ASK!
OMG!!!!! Just finished the 3rd arc of WIDFALI and... just WOW!!! I can't even begin to express how epic it was. It was literally perfect and I wouldn't want a single thing changed. 😍😍😍😍😍
That being said..... SPOILERS!!!!!!......
I am left wondering what would've happened if Alexander hadn't gone to help Wicks, besides the obvious. (Sorry Wicks, I love ya man.) What would have been Andrea's next move?
Andras after being detained, wearing a "magic binder".
Spoilers for this Chapter of Widfali below!
After successfully devouring Wicks, he would be able to pose as him completely, without fail. Andras would then get himself to the basement, call Garter in, and head to the explosive he's planted down there. They didn't go off or anything in the story because they weren't messed with and were buried with the partial building collapse. Andras would change himself to be Wicks before Garter gets there, and then kill him.
Specifically because Garter is Wicks's close friend at the C.P.P.A., Wicks would never hurt him. AND two, Garter is an oni. Oni's third eyes, if trained well enough, are one of the only things that could see mimics, besides what Elliot is, a seer wolf. So he'd put an end to him, cloak up, and then blow up the basement.
Posing as Wicks, he'd go under the guise of saving a few of the "collection" pieces down there, so that's the other "reason" Wicks couldn't go after Andras when he "teleported away" as well as what happened to Garter.
Giant explosions, erosion over time, and etc, can dispel a magic signature. A magic signature is what lingers in areas after magic is used, it can be used to find the user. That's why Andras loaded the cars to explode once it was unlocked to see the scene at the mall. Alexander luckily realized it would make the cars explode after, so he had to decode the magic signature to find who made it. In this case Andras. (IF Alexander wasn't keen enough to catch it, they would not have been able to find Andras). Because the only other place he used magic was in the limo he had Osiris drive into the water. (So even if it's brought up by humans, no one is going to suspect magic was used in it if it's registered to a normal human).
Anyway, then as Wicks he'd claim Andras escaped and in front of everyone, not only make himself cry drowning in emotions while hugging into Lynette about Garter, but also shouting that he WILL be the one to end Andras.
His boss, Olivia, would put Wicks on a cool down as he would want to 'fight with her to find him'. A mourning period and vacation. They won't thoroughly investigate him because they'd feel and see his distress. And he'd play perfectly as Wicks, all his memories and such. The biggest win Andras has is that his secret stays safe. Even with their explanations of the events, odds are, the C.P.P.A. wouldn't consider a mimic as they are usually discovered quickly and after all these years, there has never been a report of such from Andras.
He wouldn't allow anyone to know his true identity, as not even his closest subordinates, Victoria and Terrance knew.
At some points he'd leave by himself, giving whatever excuses needed to Lynette and rebuild what he can. Though, Andras is fairly heartless. A literal psychopath. I'd imagine he'd have some kind of respect for losing two of his best, Terrance and Victoria.
His main goal from here, as he can only be Wicks for a month or so, would be to get Padre. Fun fact, Padre is easily the strongest in Widfali for one, and two it gives Andras plenty of possibilities with magic.
He'd use Wicks to get Padre when his guard is down or if he didn't feel confident doing so as Wicks. He'd end up consuming a terrified, unassuming Lynette and pretending like Wicks "didn't come home" one day after a mission. The C.P.P.A. would be looking for him not knowing he's been gone for a while.
He'd then use Lynette to get to Padre if he can. It'd be easier as Padre and Madre would be worried about their family. Especially Lynette being alone. They'd bring her in with them as she'd be upset about Wicks's loss.
He'd get Padre because of that, or get people to help him weaken Padre enough. those he'd hire would probably die in the process, and then Andras could take him down.
His hardest part of the whole plan would be, being Wicks. Involvement in a place where if they look hard enough they might find you is risky. Which is why he'd take as much leave as possible.
Overall, Andras probably won't stop what he did before. He'd keep going until the day he dies.
He'd find it annoying to start again from the bottom, and yet he'd hold no ill will toward Lynette, Drake, or Alexander.
I want to write a small thing about this as some point, after he gets detained and his answers to some questions.
Andras would still want Drake and to get him for his disobedience, but in Andras's head they just played the "game" better.
He always does things by a risk and reward basis. IF he has a high reward and low to medium risk, he'd take it. Occasionally he'd do things with high reward and high risks. For example, eating Wicks out in the "open" like that is a higher risk. Not too high as he would have won in the end getting Wicks with Osiris's mind manipulation, a tough one regardless.
So, if Alexander didn't go back: Wicks would have been devoured, Zetsu would have for sure died as he was still partially impaled, Lynette would probably have die too knowing at that point the brother she had been with for the past month wasn't even him, and then Padre.
Eventually he'd hunt Drake like before, continuing a never ending cycle.

I HOPE THIS ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION WELL ENOUGH! Thank you for it! I AM GLAD YOU ARE LIKING THE STORY SO FAR AND THAT YOU LIKED ONE OF MY FAVORITE ARCS TO WRITE UP TO DATE. One of my all time favorites though is going to be Arc 5, after this current one.
YOU BETTER HAVE A SWEETIE BOBEAN REST OF YOUR DAY!! (Nonnegotiable)
Light blood version below (it's not really too bad but wanted to spoiler it nonetheless) and info dump on him.
Why he doesn't let this form loose more often?
Unlike most monsters, Alexander isn't in his form at all times. As his species is a mesh between Vampire beasts, and Mimic's, he has a shifting gene. In most of his species, the shifting gene that vampire beasts possess isn't active. However, Alexander's is due to his magus half. So he'll normally appear as a magus and shift into his monster form when conditions are met.
His wendigo form only happens when he succumbs to his hunger, thoughts of hunger, and or he gets extremely angry. Upon doing so, his internal structure undergoes a agonizing change, forcing his body to be torn, stretched, and evolve to handle a new bigger and much more vicious shape.
Before he learned size shifting, he'd have to wait for his body to be starved enough to change, every two days or so, and it'd only go back to normal when his energy was at half the requirement it needs to survive.
So, overtime he's gotten used to mass amounts of pain, which is why in Widfali he's able to shrug off most things that others cannot.
And unfortunately, unlike vampire beasts and magus's, he did not get their naturally fast healing. Alexander has studied extensively into assistance magic so he could maintain his body and not die to any injuries he might have after his body reverts back.
Alexander eventually learned size shifting and because the internal structure in his normal body is safe to consume humans, he does it like that instead. His other form runs on instincts leaving him less control, and he'd rather not risk potentially maiming or killing anyone he ever eats.
More info on the monster species and Alexander:
It hasn't been explained much in the story, but 'wendigo', are a mix between a vampire beast and a mimic. *(A mimic originally posed as a vampire beast and got partially eaten in the the vampire beasts need for "procreation" cycle, rip)*. Mimics hide themselves, devouring a living being and then posing as them for an extended period of time, approximately 2-3 months.
While a wendigo don't have that natural change when they completely ingest a living being, so it feels compelled to continuously do so until it's able to 'hide'. That's are in a constant state of needing to consume because they cannot hide.
Mimics do not stay in their natural form as it leads them to get killed.
A wendigo will feel satisfied briefly at the time of consumption but once their prey is digested, they desire more. It's also why a wendigo when compared to a vampire beast or vampire, has a stronger digestive system.
Wendigo's bodies brutally digest every part of their prey, and they do not have any other organs needed to process them. Their stomachs are the most durable part of their body as well, made to contain even the most ferocious 'prey' and besides their incredible acids, their bodies squeeze prey tighter to tire it out and their saliva as well as stomach wall coating drains the prey of energy too. Anything that even just gets licked by a wendigo starts to feel the draining effects.
*(Fortunately for Alexander being a half (and his moms "unique" genes), his digestive system doesn't work properly, so he can't digest someone or something unless he's focusing on it for hours or days. His hunger is also "more manageable" compared to most.)
Side note: wendigo's singular appetite toward one species is due to the genes form vampire/vampire beasts.

ANYWAY, I WISH YOU ALL A WONDERFUL DAY. THANK YOU FOR READING!!
