There were clear signs of a struggle. Broken everything and random holes suggested that this had been one big fight, not that this should have been to surprising considering who Wally had been up against. Now Clay Face was finally in holding, but no one had heard from Kid Flash since he'd originally called in to report finding the guy. Flash was in the building searching, but moving at such a speed that no one had laid eyes on him in a while. He was probably searching every inch of this place from top to bottom. Aqualad and the rest of his team stood on the ground floor, observing the destruction and kicking around ideas of what happened.
Except for Robin.
He was walking around the place, at a much slower speed then KF's mentor, and kept looking over at one wall in particular.
It seemed Boy Wonder and League member had come to the same conclusion, as they both stopped in front of an area that once may have been another room. Now the wall around it was caved in, and you could almost make out a wooden staircase behind the mess, though there was no telling if that had collapsed due to all the damage.
Flash spoke slowly, for him, in an effort to steady himself down and stop panicking "The building plans for this say there's a storage space down below, and this is the only way down. If he's still here, it would be down there. "
Robin nodded in silent agreement before calling the rest of the team over and telling them their theory. The two girls paled, both coming to the conclusion that if he was down there, he might not be in too good a shape. Conner and Kaldur simply moved forward and began moving the rubble out of the way, determined to get him out one way or the other.
M'Gann stepped forward, prepared to phase through the structure and go down there without their assistance, but Robin stopped her, quickly coming up with an excuse on the spot. "No, something could still be down there, and dangerous. Wait until we can all make it down there."
Really he was just thinking that he didn't want his friend to find what he was picturing in his head. Mangled limbs, blood everywhere. She shouldn't be the first one to find that. Honestly, he didn't want to be the first one to find that either, but better him, who had seen dead bodies, then her who still seemed so innocent to the world.
Once the smallest space was available, Robin ducked inside, leaving the rest to follow. The stairs that lead down below looked like they would give out at a second's notice, so he called behind him "Let's go down one at a time. This thing doesn't look to sturdy." Despite a few groans of protest from the wood beneath him, it held as he made his way to the bottom and began looking about for his friend. A few seconds later Flash and M'Gann were by his side, the others making their way down on their own.
It was dark down here, the lights either broken or nonexistent for such an old storage place. Robin dug a flashlight out of his belt, flicked it on, and gave it a quick pass of the room, though frowned when he spotted nothing in front of him. There were no doors or entrances leading off, so if he wasn't here, then where was he?
Turning on his heel, he shined the light back up towards the staircase, wondering if he may have missed something in the dark, when his light passed over something bright, under the stairway.
"Wally" both he and Artemis cried at the same time, lunging forward but stopping quickly when they made it to the failing wood. If they simply broke it to get through to him, there was a good chance the whole thing would collapse. The space in between the steps was so small, not even Robin could force more than his arm through.
The Flash and M'Gann had no such qualms, both at his side in seconds. M'Gann called back for the others "He's breathing, but there's blood all over him."
Flash pushed his partners mask out of the way to search for the head wound, while Robin's mind flew to put the pieces together. How did Wally end up under that staircase, when none of the stairs were actually broken? His eyes ghosted back over the scene, taking the whole room in, trying to map out the fight in his head.
Between the two, their friend was back on this side of the stairwell, and he already seemed to be waking up. M'Gann released him instantly as Artemis shot forward and was in his face at once, demanding to know if he was okay. There was blood covering his face, but his eyes were bright and alert as he opened them, smiled and slurred "I fell through the ceiling."
The others stood there for the briefest moment, and they finally came to the conclusion that Robin had. The shock had already worn off on him, and he was now shaking with laughter. At the looks on his teams face, it morphed into cackling.
"Just what is so funny" Wally snapped, rounding on his friend, and almost losing his balance. The Flash was still there though, and supported his nephew's weight so he didn't topple over.
This just made Robin laugh all the harder.
He had done it, Wally had been trying to phase through objects since he had first turned into Kid Flash, now he had managed to do it, and passed out. Never again could his friend mock him with this kind of leverage.
Extremely disappointed they never, in the show, showed Wally vibrating through a wall, when that's his coolest power! The others are coming up, and Artemis will be posted tomorrow. Hope you enjoyed.
