It wasn't something they had expected to happen.

The last time he joined his best friend and his team in the city-wide training session, all they had to deal with had been a few lowlife criminals. Not a vortex of doom in nighttime New York at the base of the Statue of Liberty. That was just unheard of.

He looked at the costumed teens around him. Power-Man had managed to dig his fingers into the ground while holding onto White Tiger, and Nova was doing his best to fly against the pull of the vortex as he kept his strong grip on Iron Fist. He himself was clutching tightly to Spider-Man's hand as the webbed hero held onto the web that worked as their only anchor. Looking back at the vortex then back at his friend, he never thought how glad he would be to have a mask that completely hid his face. He knew that he looked freaked out, and knew that the other would be highly upset to see such an expression on his face.

They managed to hold on for a good few minutes, but as each second passed none were to sure how long they would last in their current situation. The vortex seemed to increase its power.

And then a thought came to mind, and he knew he had to act on it.

"Do you trust me?"

"What?" Spider-man snapped his head towards him in surprise at the rather random question.

"I asked if you trust me." he kept his voice calm, and waited for his friend to reply. Though he knew the answer before it was said.

"Of course I do."

"Then trust me when I say I know what I'm doing."

"Bolt-" Spider-man gripped his friend's hand tighter as he felt the other slip from his grasp, panic creeping into his voice. "Bolt. What are you doing?"

"Let go. I'll be fine. I promise."

"But-"

"Peter." he gently grasped his friend's wrist, making sure to keep eye contact with the other. His voice softened. "I promise I'll be fine. Just wait for me at home, alright?" with that, he pulled himself away from his best friend.

"WALLY!"

Everything vanished when the vortex closed after him.


A/N: Yeeeeaaaaahhhhhh. So more of this stuff. This is, if you can't already guess, going to be focused on Wally. And my Wally and normal YJ are going to be different a bit, aside from mine being from Marvel and yaddayaddayadda. Hopefully this attacks enough people to like it? Hopefully?

Anyway, please review! It's always a joy to read how people thought of my attempts at writing!

Have a fantabulous day/week/month/year readers! Ciao!

P.S. Sorry that this is so short. Tis only the prologue-ish thing.
