Force

Prologue
Beauty. Energy. Power.
Those three words couldn't even begin to describe It. What ever It was.
Speed Force. The words came unbidden to his mind.
Suddenly a hand appeared beside him. "FLASH!" he heard a voice scream.
"Shayera? It's so beautiful here. There's a Force. A Speed Force." He felt the pull of the Force, stronger now, and gaining strength. "It's calling me home. I have to go now . . . ." He could feel it, to the very centre of his core. Come . . . come . . . .
"NO, WALLY!" she cried. "Take my hand!" He felt her hand grasp tightly onto his forearm, and did not resist. Not yet.
"I'm here too, Wally!" John.
"We're all here." Clark.
"You've got to come back to us." John again.
He could feel the pull strengthen on both sides. It hurt.
Then, he knew. Neither side would let up. Not until he made a decision.
The Speed Force sang. Not with words, tunelessly . . . just sound. It was entrancing. The Speed Force gained strength, and Shayera's shoulder and wing were pulled in. Then he remembered. His friends, family, his life. How could he leave them to deal with this harsh, cold world, while he took the easy route? He knew he could never be that selfi-
He took too long in deciding. The Speed Force chose for him. It was unstoppable now.
Shayera's head was now inside of the Force. He could see her gritting her teeth at the strain.
"Let go," he said gently, calmly. "You have to let go."
"NO!" Their voices were warped. He couldn't tell who was saying what anymore.
"I'm sorry." He met Shayera's gaze, and pulled his arm from her grasp.
"Goodbye."
A/N: New story! Not a humor one, though . . . . Hooray for short sentances! I'm really going to be working on using more description than I normally do, so let me know how I do on that factor. Be honest! I think I got a bit reppetetive in the 'he felt' and the 'he knew'. It's a bit better than before, on that factor.
Anyway, a Thank You to Miles333 for betaing!
I'm not entirely sure where I'm going with this story, so it'll be as much of a surprise for me as it is for you. Well, not quite . . . I'll stop rambling now, and let you get on with your lives. :D
