I'm going to be making one change to the Legends lineup, since like I said before, I wanted to add a Supergirl character to the mix and now you're going to find out who I've chosen. Also since chapter will mostly involve bringing the team together, it will be a longer chapter.


"So Rip, where's our next stop?" Miranda asked her husband after he'd picked her and Jonas up and he'd told her everything that had happened, including the beyonder.

"Seattle, 2042. Then we're headed for 2016 to recruit the rest of the Legends, including this ship's new captain." Rip said

"I never thought I'd see the day when you relinquished leadership of this vessel to someone else. Frankly, I was always a little jealous of Gideon, since it felt like you spent more time with her than with me." Miranda said and Rip smiled.

"Gideon will always have a special place in my heart Miranda, but you have nothing to fear from her." Rip assured her.

"Good. Now, let's recruit these Legends. I'm eager to hear what your old team has to say about you." Miranda said and RIp nodded as the ship headed through the timestream.


Seattle 2042

Zari Tomaz had just dodged another Argus patrol with her totem, wondering why even though they were on another Earth, the future still sucked.

However, she came to a stop after she heard someone approach her.

"Okay seriously, whoever you are, I'm already having a bad day, don't make it worse." Zari said.

"Oh don't worry Ms. Tomaz, I'm here to help make your life better." A familiar voice said and Zari grinned when she turned to see Rip Hunter standing in front of her.

"Rip." Zari said.

"How would you like to go on an adventure?" Rip asked.

"Let's go. Where's the rest of the Team?" Zari asked.

"We're picking them up next, I only came here first because 2042 was on my way to 2016 from 2166." Rip said Zari nodded.

"Let's get out of here." Zari said immediately and Rip nodded.


National City 2016

Sara and Ava had just arrived back at their apartment after a movie date night when they found the door opened.

"Who would be dumb enough to break into our apartment?" Sara asked and Ava shrugged as they both pulled out guns and walked inside.

"Really now. While you both have your reasons to shoot me, I thought you would've been much more relieved." Rip said and Sara grinned as she dropped her gun and ran up to hug him.

"Rip. It's so good to see you again. We did it. We stopped Malice and proved that we were Legends." Sara said and Rip smiled.

"I had every confidence you would. Hello Ava." Rip said, turning towards her.

"Rip. At least I know I'm not a clone this time. Right?" Ava asked.

"Don't worry Ava, you are the only one of you in this universe, I had nothing to do with your creation." Rip was quick to assure her.

"Good, but anyways, what brings you here?" Ava asked.

"The Beyonder gave me a new purpose for the Legends when he brought me to this world. I'll explain it once we get the whole team back together." Rip said.

"So, are you going to be leading us again?" Sara asked.

"No. The Legends only have true captain. You Sara. I said it before and I'll say it again now. You are a much better captain than I ever was." Rip said and Sara smiled.

"Okay then, if you can provide me a way to keep in touch with my family. The last time I left on the Waverider, Laurel died and I didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to her. I want to be able to keep regular tabs on my family." Sara said.

"I've already had Gideon recreate this temporal communicator, with a beacon built into it, allowing your family to call the Waverider back to their time when needed." Rip said, handing Sara the communicator.

"Well Aves, you want to be a Legend?" Sara asked.

"Absolutely. But Rip, what about your wife and son?" Ava asked.

"Savage was never given immortality in this reality, so Miranda and Jonas are actually going to be waiting for you on the Waverider and Miranda has been beyonded." Rip said.

"Nice, I can't wait to have a long overdue chat with your wife about everything you've done." Sara with a grin.

"I'll let you two pack up and settle things here while I recruit the rest of the team, minus Ms. Tomaz, who is already on the ship." Rip said.

"Great, I'm going to call Alex and explain things to her before we pack, so that she knows that we're resigning from the DEO." Sara said and Rip nodded.

"We can wait until then, since I'm also going to be recruiting Mr. Snart and Mr. Rory here in National City and I think that it would be better if Sara was here for that, since there's a very likely chance that Mr. Rory will shoot his gun at me." Rip said.

"More like almost guaranteed." Sara said.


Mick and Snart were on their way back to the crap shack they were currently calling home when they heard voice from behind them.

"You guys have been in the city for weeks and you never came by to visit? I'm hurt." Sara said with a grin as Mick and Snart turned around face her.

"Boss." Mick said respectfully, causing Snart to look at him.

"Since when do you call Sara boss?" Snart asked.

"Since I became leader of the Legends and that's actually why I'm here. Rip is back and we're getting the gang back together. Zari, Ava and I have already rejoined. What about you two?" Sara asked.

"I'm in, hunting aliens is getting boring, the rush just isn't the same anymore. Plus the Waverider gets better TV reception." Mick said and Sara smiled.

"What about you Snart?" Sara asked.

"I suppose someone will need to reign Mick in. But who's Ava?" Snart asked.

"My girlfriend and she's also from Earth One. It's a long story." Sara said, trying to let him down gently.

"Well, hope we can still play cards at least." Snart said.

"Of course and you'll both be happy to know that someone else already blew up the time masters." Sara said.

"Great, so I don't need to get myself for that again." Snart said.

"Wait, the Englishman isn't in charge is he?" Mick asked.

"No, I'm captain again." Sara assured him.

"Good." Mick said as he and Snart followed Sara over to where she'd stashed the jumpship.

"So, where are we going next?" Snart asked.

"Actually, Rip is doing one other pickup in National City, apparently he's adding someone completely new to the team this time, so we'll find out when we get back to the ship." Sara said.

"Huh, I wonder who the rookie will be." Mick asked.

"No idea. But I do know that it's someone who previously worked with Supergirl." Sara said.


Guardian had just finished a night of patrol in National City when suddenly he heard someone call his name.

"Mr. Olsen, can I have a word?" Rip asked.

"You know who I am?" Guardian asked.

"Yes. My name is Rip Hunter and I am a part of the Legends. Considering you know Kara Danvers, Sara Lance and Ava Sharpe, surely you must be familiar with them." Rip said.

"I am, a team full of people who travel through time?" Guardian asked and Rip nodded.

"Yes, while also people whose existence didn't have an overall effect on the timeline. Like you." Rip said.

"Wait, what?" Guardian asked.

"I come a from a future where the heroes of this time are revered. Superman, Supergirl, Green Arrow, Black Canary, Flash, Dash, all of them, but there is no mention of Guardian. However, the Legends have the opportunity to change their fates and truly become legendary. And I'd like to recruit you to join us. But the choice is yours. You can either stay here and beat up criminals and not matter, or you can take a chance and join the Legends, become something more than an outcast or a loner. Be a legend." Rip said as James looked around before removing his helmet.

"I became Guardian on both earths because I wanted to make a difference in the world. Now I found out that it doesn't matter. But now I have a chance to do something that will actually matter. I'm in. Besides, my friend Winn told me about time travel and it sounds like it might be fun and I really don't have much here for me in National City anymore, so can we swing by my apartment so I can grab some things and let Ms. Grant know I'm quitting?" James asked and Rip nodded.

"Of course." Rip said.


"Oh it is so good to be back." Sara said as she stepped onto the bridge of the Waverider and for the first time since she'd been beyonded, she felt like she was home.

"Hello Captain Lance. It's good to see you again." Gideon said happily.

"Gideon, it's good to see you to. Is everyone back on the ship?" Sara asked as Rip joined her.

"Yes, Mr. Rory, Mr. Snart and Ms. Tomaz are reclaiming their old rooms and Ava is reclaiming your old room." Rip said.

"Well, it's a good thing she's not the only one living in there." Sara said as she noticed James.

"James." Sara said, holding out her hand to him.

"Hey Sara. We haven't really interacted much have we?" James asked.

"No, you've mostly been a solo act in National City. You joining the team?" Sara asked and James nodded.

"Yeah, I became Guardian because I wanted to make a difference, an actual impact on the world, but that wasn't working, so when Rip offered me the chance, I took it." James said and Sara nodded.

"Welcome aboard. Do you have everything you need?" Sara asked.

"Yeah, I stopped by my place and grabbed everything I needed. I should be good." James said.

"And if you're not, the Waverider's fabricator should compensate." Rip said.

"Rip, can you give James the tour while I fly this thing to Central City to pick the rest of the team?" Sara asked.

"Come with me James." Rip said, leading James off.

"Gideon, plot a course for Star Labs in Central City." Sara said.

"Right away Captain." Gideon said as Sara retook her seat in the pilot's chair and the ship flew off.


So, now the Legends from National City have been recruited, now it's off to Central City for the rest of the team. By the way, how do you guys like how I put James in. I mean he's kind been a loner since he became Guardian and I can't really see him having much impact on history besides being a friend of Superman and Supergirl. He fits the qualifications for being a Legend perfectly.
