A Reason - A Little Drabble Do ya! - April 1st

[jantojones.livejournal.com]

Alexander Waverly sat alone in the park; well, apart from his three man bodyguard. There were days when he wondered why he continued to fight against the forces of evil. Each time an enemy was defeated, it simply left a space for a stronger one to emerge; and the old man was getting tired.

The sound of several screeching children cut through the maudlin fog in his mind. Mr Waverly watched the children squeal and giggle, as they chased each other around. They were happy and free, and they were the only reason he really needed to keep on fighting

Very nice Janto. He needed a 'little' incentive and he found it.

He is the good guy we all wish was at the top. Nice ode to the Old Man.

He hit it on the head, our children need that freedom.

They say the children are the future. (Not for me personally, because I don't really like them). They have the right to be happy and free.

What a sweet drabble. It definitely would get exhausting for new enemies to continually appear all the time. Mr. Waverly's family certainly would give him the drive needed to keep fighting.

Also, an intriguing thought about so many bodyguards with him. I hadn't thought about that, but true, he very likely would need a lot of them with him.

Thank you.

I doubt that a man in Mr Waverly's position ever goes anywhere alone.
