Summary
Canon divergence with an added ABO world -
In July of 2016, while in Moscow, Ilya gets the news that he is being traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs. His father blames it on his 'poor performances' and sees it as an embarrassment for their family and their country. He demands that Ilya stay in Moscow, but Ilya does not. He leaves immediately and safely reaches Toronto, but once there, he learns that Russia has cancelled his passport and Canada cannot issue a work visa for him until that is cleared up, or other criteria are met that would allow for him to become a citizen. Ilya doesn't think there is any way for him to get the visa or become a citizen in the timeframe he has, so he resigns himself to going back to Russia.
But first, he wants to say to goodbye to Shane, knowing it will be the last time he sees him.- This started off as a bit of crack, but kind of turned serious fast, as serious as an ABO world can be anyway.

Summary
(now) TV series canon-divergent before David Hollander goes to the cottage for
dishwasher tabletsa charger.Shane makes a trip to the convenience store about five minutes away. He texts Ilya to let him know when he's on his way back. Too much time passes and texts and calls from Ilya go unanswered. Ilya has a terrible feeling that something is very wrong.
Ilya is right.
Shane's in an accident, and other than the drunk driver calling emergency services, he's useless to help. Shane's trapped, unconscious in his burning car, but Ilya arrives to save him.
Afterward, they're both injured in different ways and the road to recovery involves more than just physical healing. If that wasn't bad enough, they also have to deal with the media frenzy. Ilya is told he's a hero, but he doesn't feel like he is, not when he's also a huge liar.
If this sounds familiar and you were around a few yrs ago, you may’ve read the tiny one shot with a similar plot I wrote, planning to continue it as a series and never did. Thank you to those of you who reached out to me asking about that fic, and the previous comments on it. I hope you'll like this rewrite, and expansion.
