"Ah! So, I've finally met the Canary face-to-face." The man in front of her had a Cheshire grin upon his face like this was the greatest moment of his life. His hand hovered over her face for a moment then he started to run his finger up and down her jaw bone.

Sara winced. It almost look like she'd been burned. He would have been if she wasn't in thick metal chains.

"Why must I burn you so?" He questioned aloud. "I know for a fact that someone will come to save you. You are the precious Canary that got brought back to life. Obviously someone cares for you."

Sara scoffed. "Then you must be mistaken. I've burnt all of those bridges long ago."

James sobered only for a moment before his creepy voice chimed in again. "Ah, yes. Time traveling. I've always wanted to go back and see my former self. I've always wanted to tell myself to never change, that I'm perfect."

Sara paled slightly that would only make him worse. "Usually people don't go back to give themselves a pep talk. Usually they want to change something."

"Exactly! I want to CHANGE nothing!" the man laughed evilly. "Now, now, what to do with a beautiful young lady like you?"

"Uh… nothing?"

He pulled up a chair and sat in front of her, just staring. She felt really, really uncomfortable. The Canary didn't show it though. She knew someone would be coming for her, it was just a matter of when.

"Oh! I've got just the thing!" He rushed into the other room to grab something, she didn't know what. She knew that her earpiece was on and they could hear everything that was being said. She wanted to warn them while he was out of the room, but the girl couldn't risk it.

Therefore, she just waited until her saving grace appeared, or at least protect them so they wouldn't die. Everyone knew she was the most daring on the ship because she wasn't afraid to die.

"What do you mean you can't find her?" Leonard snapped. "The Trickster couldn't have gotten that far."

Gideon was silent for a moment. "Well, Mr. Snart, it seems that I am not able to sense her presence, which means you all will have to go search for her."

"You'd think you'd know how he acts. You have worked with him before." Ray reasoned.

"Not by choice. That man is psycho." The ship was silent for a moment. "You all can wait here, I'm going to search for her."

Rip sighed. "Pair up. Take to the skies and search the buildings." He turned to Leonard. "You don't have any idea as to where he might have taken her?"

Mick looked to Leonard. They were most likely thinking the same thing. "Well, an abandoned building would be ideal."

Leonard and Mick left the ship first. They both had goggles on and their guns were at the ready, for anything that would randomly pop up. They searched multiple buildings and finally arrived at one that released a slight whimper.

"Go get the others. We might need back up. You might not be enough. Who knows how many of Trickster's men are still loyal to him.

Mick sighed, really knowing the answer and not fully falling for his cover up. Mick was the only one who would be able to spot it, being as he'd been his partner for years. He nodded in consent.

"It was coming from the window right above us." Mick nodded and allowed Leonard to use him as a pole to climb up to it. They'd done this multiple times to break into many banks and museums. He pulled out his cold gun and froze the glass. All he had to do was touch the glass and it shattered.

It was difficult, but he managed to pull himself through the window, to see Sara's bloody face. She looked frightened at the fact that he'd arrived. "Well, assassin, I guess it's your ass that needs saving this time."

Sara rolled her eyes. "He is in-" She started jerking simultaneously, frightening Leonard to no tomorrow.

He suddenly heard cackling from the doorway. "I guess Miss Lance did have a knight in shining armor. I just wasn't expecting it to be you. It doesn't matter, really. It just means that you're going to experience the fireworks as well." He laughed sadistically.

"If that's the case, unlock her. She doesn't need to be chained up in the last moments in her life."

"Why? So you can exclaim your undying love for her?" When Leonard didn't make any sound or movement other than pursing his lips, James' face brightened. "Oh! How wonderful! In that case, Unchain her."

Then, Leonard heard a squeaking sound as something slid over the windows, then he heard the sound of Locks clicking together. "Well, this is grand."

When the Trickster left the room, Leonard did exactly as what he said. He unchained her, but strapped to the table was packets of dynamite. If he removed the restraints, the table would blow up, her with it.

"Shit." He looked upon her face. It was pale and looked full of concern, in response to his concerned filled gaze.

"What's wrong, crook?" She barely managed to whisper. Her breath was shallow. "Why are you here? I was pretty sure I'd burned all my bridges."

"You didn't burn this one." He smiled in an uncharacteristic way. It didn't seem to fit his face because she'd never seen that expression before. "I can't lose you."

She looked towards the ground. "What changed? Not even a few months ago you couldn't wait to get out of here."

"I got to watch you dance and kick-ass. What's better than that?" He laughed slightly.

"You helping me find my way. That mission, I don't think I've ever thanked you for it." The girl looked into his eyes and flashed a quick somber smile. "How much time do we have left?"

Leonard checked the timer on the bottom of the table and grumbled. "A minute and thirty-two seconds. Mick will be back with the others."

"Well, if these are going to be my last moments, I want to make sure I do something I've wanted to do for a long time." That earned a confused look from the man above her. "Come here. I need to whisper something in your ear."

Leonard cautiously leaned down and shivered slightly when he felt her warm breath against his neck. "Use your cold gun to freeze the system."

Leonard almost slapped himself in the face. He couldn't believe he'd been that absent minded. "Right. It might get cold in here."

He whipped out his cold gun after he adjusted his goggles upon his face. He knelt beside her and pulled the trigger, allowing a blue stream of ice to release and freeze the bomb system. "What about the window?"

He immediately turned and shot the bars on the window, causing them to shatter. Cold released the restraints and scooped her up into his arms. He saw everyone below him, waiting for them to jump down, or in Leonard's case, fall down. Luckily, a pair of arms grabbed him under the armpits before his back could hit the ground and he seriously hurt his legs.

Both Mick and Ray offered to carry her, but Leonard said no and never let go of her until she was in the med bay, resting. The electricity that coursed through her veins made her ridiculously tired and fall unconscious after everything was deemed okay and her body registered she was safe..

The team was ultimately surprised that Leonard didn't leave the med bay until she'd awoken. That didn't mean that he was lying over her bed grasping her hand, no. He was too stubborn for that. He didn't even know what the protectiveness he was feeling towards her was.

He simply watched from across the room, inconspicuously reading a book as his cover.

"Wow. You must either be just flipping through the pages or really wanting to learn new things."

He immediately flipped the book shut and looked at the cover. The Encyclopedia. The man wanted to slap himself so much right at that moment. "It was the only way for people to leave me alone." That was half true. "Well, now that you're awake, I'm taking my leave. Try not to do anything else stupid." He stated as he walked out of the room.

Sara simply laid slightly propped up in the makeshift cot and let out a giant huff of air. What was going on with her?

"Hey! I see everything is okay now?"

The blonde looked up and smiled brightly at Ray. "Why and how are you always so chipper?'

"I honestly don't know, but Laurel and Oliver would have had my head if something happened to you."

Her eyebrows almost hit her hairline. "You protect me?" She scoffed slightly. "Please."

"Anyway, Gideon already deemed it okay for you to get back into action whenever you're ready and Captain wants to see you in his office. Whenever you're ready, of course. We don't want Leonard getting angry at us or anything."
