If Darkness

by IvyValentine1

Drabble. A young Sewer King dreads darkness before his mother finds his toy alligator and places it in his arms. After many years, the Sewer King finds another reason to dread darkness.

I don't own Batman TAS characters.

A/N - This drabble was a bit tricky to write. Nobody likes canon characters anyway.

Wendell trembled in darkness as tears ran down his face. He pulled a blanket up to his mouth. He saw concern in his mother's eyes when she approached his bed. Wendell smiled the minute she lifted a toy alligator off the floor and gave it to him. After cuddling the alligator, he fell asleep. He was going to be fine in darkness.

Years later, the Sewer King scowled near a sick alligator in darkness. He refused to view the alligator's life ending. It wasn't going to view his sudden tears and smile. He sobbed and was going to be fine.

THE END
