A/N

This came to me while at my grandparents as my grandfather was watching a show about sea turtles and it made me think of Constantine because of his turtle, Hector and one thing led to another in my imagination.

Plus this story is set when Constantine is very young, around five or six and with his older sister Toph but lonely so a day at the beach leads to him finding a turtle egg which is Hector inside.

I think this is too cute.


"Woo-boo!" Constantine yelled running across the sandy beach as it was a few years after he and his older sister Toph had came to America from Russia.

The amphibian youngster was having too much fun in the ocean making Toph sigh because her little brother was reckless but he was running out of the ocean shaking the wet off his green skin.

Something caught his eye, an egg!

"I wonder where it came from, who would leave it there?" Constantine wondered putting it in the pouch on his back which was his bag and kept his most precious things in it like gems and a photo of his parents.

"Constantine, we should go, set up camp." Toph told him.

The amphibian male youngster wangling after his older sister, unaware the egg he had found was a sea turtle egg.

"Coming sis, I was just looking at something." he said.

Toph understood as her brother was a little kid in both amphibian and human years so he was very inquisitive.


That evening, Toph was getting ready to go into the sea town and get some dinner for her and Constantine putting on her hooded black cloak making Constantine sigh, he got lonely when she went off like this seeing her hop off after she hugged him, warning him not to leave.

After she left, he remembered the egg he had found in the pouch taking it out but cradling it gently.

"He-lo there whatever you are inside, I'm Constantine, a frog but I found you.

My big sister Toph and I moved to America from Russia where we used to live but we can be friends when you hatch." he said to the egg humming softly.

Suddenly there was a cracking sound as it was the egg, it was hatching!

He was very happy seeing a baby turtle making Constantine very happy and Toph amazed, knowing he had found a turtle egg.

"This is my pet, I'm gonna call him Hector!" Constantine said.

Toph couldn't help but smile stroking the baby turtle's shell since she was blind but she knew this was what her little brother needed sijce she knew he got lonely when she was on heists so Hector would be a good thing and his first friend.

"Mmmmm the food you got is good, Toph!

I wonder what turtles eat?" Constantine said remembering he could find it out in a book sijce he loved to read books plus he had learnt to read when he was two, plus had a library card so he could get books.

"Maybe we can find a book about turtles, so I know how to look after Hector." Constantine said yawning and rubbing his eyes.

Toph knew it was time for him to sleep, as he was saying he wasn't tired.

"You need your sleep to grow big and strong, Hector too because he's a baby right now, but when you were born, Mom and Dad took care of you so you could grow." the light blue skinned amphibian female said tucking him in.

He saw Hector beside him asleep, as he was getting sleepy too but passed out.
