The Utopia

The Rat King was sitting quietly in his cell.

He has not been doing much ever since the SCP Foundation locked him up. It is almost as if he was traumatized.

A SCP-worker brought The Rat King his meal.

" I am sorry " said the worker; " I will bring you some bigger cheese next time "

The Rat King just hid himself within his cloak.

He barely ate, nor drank. The poor Rat King was more skeleton than flesh.

" It is as if he wants to die, '' said the worker to her colleague.

Something else now caught the facility's attention.

There have been sightings of many rats running around the facility. The rats don't seem hostile. They are all merely running back and forth the Rat King's cell.

" It is as if they are keeping him company " said the worker, as she looked upon all the rats.

Days like this went by, and something miraculous happened; the Rat King started to eat and drink.

The SCP worker looked on, as the Rat King was playing with the other rats.

It took some time, but the Rat King finally opened up. He and the worker had some lovely conversation. And the worker found out; that the Rat King only wanted a human friend.

Teaming up with the Rat King, the SCP Foundation were able to create another Rat Utopia. And this one did not end in armageddon.
