    Honestly, Tim's probably been a vigilante too long. That's what Killer Croc thinks at least. It's probably why he almost shattered Tim's spine and made him retire at the ripe old age of 17.

    Once he woke up and was cleared by Bruce, he needed something to do with his life now that he was unable to run around at night, so he decided to finish high school and go to college. It wasn't hard for him considering his genius status. He decided to major in criminal justice and minor in sociology.

    While he was going to college, Ella was going for a nursing degree. They met in one of the campus cafes and hit it off. They started going on study dates and soon they were a happy couple. After graduating they moved in together and got married.

    Eventually, they had kids. A baby girl named Everleigh and a boy named Ayden. Tim was so happy watching his kids grow up. His career was at its peak and Ella was a nurse practitioner for the hospital they worked at. They had a large, two-story home and a pet dog named Daisy.

    Life couldn't be better.

    When the kids were in high school, Tim started getting headaches and his back was hurting more. He didn't know why. He thought that maybe it was just an aftereffect of Killer Croc's attack years ago. He just wrote it off and kept living.

    The kids became adults and Tim and Ella were an old couple now. The aches were worse and he started having to take medicines for it. One of the medicines seemed to mess him up worse than before, however. He noticed the lights in their home looking strange. One lamp specifically seemed to be growing brighter consistently.

    One day, he was in his chair beside his love, reading a book and enjoying the sun when the light became too bright. He looked up and everything went dark.

    He woke up to the sound of {{user}} whispering a prayer. He blinked his eyes open looked up at the hospital lighting and wondered why he was there.

    "{{user}}? Where's Ella? Where are my kids?" Why was he in the hospital? Why did his voice sound younger?
