Character(s): Batman, Justice Lord Batman, & Alternate Dimension's Wally West/Flash.

Genre: Angst, Suspense, Romance, Friendship, Hurt/Comfort, Tragedy, Crime, & Mystery. [For the whole story]

Idea/Prompt: The Justice Lords had gone rogue at the death of Flash, but what if there was a dimension where 6 of the founding members were killed instead of Wally. What would become of that Wally? And how does this affect the Justice League's Wally?

Length: 602 words.

Pairing(s): broken!Justice Lord Batman/Justice Lord Flash, slight!Justice Lord Batman/Justice League Flash, Shayera/John, Green Arrow/Black Canary, and eventual BatFlash: Justice League's Batman/Flash.

Rating: Teen/PG-13; for now.

Summary: So basically, the alternate Wally loses his Justice League members, turns slightly insane, and tries to find a reality where none of the founding members have died yet. He decides to replace the Justice League's Flash, by termination or sending the League's Wally into his galaxy. But Justice Lord Batman interferes, as he's worried about Justice League's Flash, and doesn't want to see another Flash die. He informs Justice League's Batman, who decides to keep watch over his Flash.

Author's Note: This was an idea that popped up after watching the Justice Lord episode, and reading an amazing BatFlash where in most dimensions, Wally died, and the League always managed to go rogue. So I wanted to write one where Flash does live, and turns rogue instead. The whole point of this story is to show that it's possible to make a Wally West, out of hundreds, to turn evil, if you know where to strike.

Warning(s): There will be mentions of Sex, Slash, Torture, Drugs, and lots of Blood in the later chapters. So beware, if you don't like that, don't read this.

Alternate Dimensions

Interlude: Dimensional Guests

Batman wonders how he got here. After all, he was due for another round in patrolling Gotham, when he suddenly got a call from him. He had never expected that he'd even try to contact any of them, after the incident that happened the last time they'd met. But Batman was curious, and since he had some spare time due to all the increasing number of heroes, and less need for monitor duty, he could take the call. And he did.

Next thing he knew, he found himself in a dark alley talking to himself, literally that is. He wondered, how would the League react if they had found out? But brushed off the idea, what Batman did as Batman concerned him and no one else. If the League needed to know, he'd tell them.

Batman stands against the wall; gaze completely focused on the man beside him, as he asks "What do you want?" The man smiles, amusement slightly obvious, before he replies calmly "I need to tell you something". Batman raises an eyebrow behind his black cowl and utters "go on".

"When we met I had been looking for alternate dimensions in which Flash would still be living. I gave up looking after locking up my teammates. But one day, I stumbled upon a dimension where Flash was alive, but the rest of us weren't. In this reality, Flash had gone rogue, quit the League, and became an unstoppable evil, one of the greatest criminal masterminds in that world."

Batman stares at the Justice Lords Batman with a look of indifference, but his tone suggests otherwise. "What does this have to with me?" the anger clearly evident.

"That Flash, may be planning to replace your Flash with himself, or may terminate the Flash of your world. I know you can handle yourselves. But this Flash has taken his love of science and used it, to make himself invulnerable to any type of wounds. He has also managed to use his speed, in ways that your Flash would still not be able to... He also kills mercilessly. I have not yet figured out what could have made that Wally become like this, but it must have been cruel for him to become the same thing he had never wanted to be..." trailing off his words, sad look in his eyes, and in that moment despite the slight guilt Batman feels, he is glad that their Wally didn't die.

Batman remains silent for a while, before stating "I'll make sure to keep tabs on the Flash then." before turning away to leave, and almost, just almost, Batman could have sworn he heard the other him utter "I know you will. But can you keep him safe like I couldn't? I'm you after all..." and fades away into the night. It's already 10:30 p.m. but the Batman dressed in silver and black makes no move to walk away as he leans against the wall, looking the very definition of miserable for one mere moment. 'Oh Wally. I really-miss you so much.' before walking away into the darkness that was Gotham City.

And somewhere along the empty alleyways of Keystone City, a man appears dressed in a deep crimson spandex suit, with a white Flash symbol on his suit. Except for the fact that his suit didn't have a cowl, and that the black-haired man wore a mask without white-lenses, he could've been mistaken for the flash. but as suddenly as this masked-man had appeared, he had vanished as well.

A wicked-pleased smile crept upon his lips as the male uttered, sounding almost relieved "I made it."

End Interlude.
