Summary: AU! Jay Garrick finds himself alive in Zoom's lair despite the fact that he clawed his hand through Jay's chest. When Zoom reveals himself, Jay couldn't help but wonder why and the answer to that question is much worse than he feared. Will contain SnowJay and WestAllen.

Thank you my beloved reviewer!

That-Hamster-Wheel: I'm still denying Jay's death cause SNOWJAY and he's my favorite character. This chapter teases my own theory of how there's three Jays since I'm still not sure which theory I'll go with yet.

So this is my second chapter. I'm liking this story very much and I hope you are too. This chapter is actually shorter than the last tho the next one will be longer. Promise :)

So enjoy!


Zoom laughed, sounding human for once. It reverberated off the walls and snapped Jay out of his disbelief.

The laugh sounded exactly like Jay's, always was somewhat more like a chuckle than an actual laugh.

"You know-,"

Jay cut his double off with a firm shake of his head. He was briefly surprised when Zoom stopped talking when he did.

Now that Zoom was revealed to be himself or at least Jay's doppelgänger (he hoped for the latter), Zoom didn't seem quite as scary anymore.

"How?" The word threw itself off Jay's tongue.

Zoom laughed again, more menacing this time, and stepped back from Jay's cell, pausing in thought. The wait seemed much longer than the few seconds as their eyes drilled relentlessly into one another.

"Well, imagine my surprise when I found not only one, but two doppelgängers on the other world, Earth-1 as you call it," Zoom began, something glinting in his eyes.

Jay looked past Zoom, focusing on the man in the iron mask. The man had stood up now, his eyes flicking between Zoom and Jay (not that Jay could tell from where he was). The man's hands were glued firmly to the glass, the iron mask resting against it.

Very briefly, he wondered why the iron mask.

Jay had a suspicion one of the two doppelgängers was the masked man. "Two?" He asked incredulously, getting a strong urge to scoff in disbelief. Instead he asked, "How could there be two?"

A vile smirk crept across Zoom's face at how profoundly stupid his double was being. Or maybe Jay simply refused to believe what Zoom hinted at. He figured the latter.

"Easy, we're identical twins." Zoom paused and took Jay's stunned silence as a cue to continue. "Of course I knew from day one, from that first fight, that we could possibly be twins. I just didn't get that confirmation until I discovered our doubles for myself."

Our.

Jay's fist clenched knuckle white for a few seconds before relaxing and he knew Zoom saw his dislike for the pronoun too because his eyes lingered warningly on Jay's hands before flashing back up.

"No, we're not twins and I'm not related to you," Jay slowly uttered each word, shaking his head. His eyes closed briefly, as if shutting out the world made the fact false.

After all, they couldn't be, right?

The air of hostility returned as Zoom stared at his other, his identical eyes screaming hatred. "Believe what you want, Garrick," Zoom answered lowly, almost a growl.

Freezing, Jay's mind raced and suddenly, his brain declared this new information to be too much. He shook his head some more, feeling as if he just finished three hours of studying for a chemistry test.

Looking up, Jay found his other staring, Zoom's eyes asking for a question of some sort.

Jay shook his head. He seemed to be doing so much of that now. "Why are you even telling me this?" He breathed, seeing the glass in front of him fog up.

That question seemed to satisfy Zoom because he chuckled, a deep rumbling in his chest. "Now, that," Zoom fiddled with the mask in his hands for a moment, using it to point to Jay, "You'll find out later."

Before Jay could do or say anything else, Zoom vanished in a rush of electric blue.


Whoohooo! And boom! Done with this chapter. The next chapter will be MUCH longer. Man, I've seriously have to make my chapters longer than 1000 words per chapter.

Welp, this AU is going pretty well in my opinion. I have up to ch. 7 outlined except anything past ch. 3 is still unsure and subject to change as the season goes on. Well just have to see!

Im thinking of including Killer Frost next Chapter. Hat do you guys think?

Did you guys enjoy this tho? Please review with any suggestions you guys have. Love to add those into the chapter along with what's already planned :)
