Hello once again readers! Writing this gets repetitive on the fourth day in a row, because I no longer have to fill it up with an excuse on why it took me so long to update something.

I don't own Young Justice but I do own my plot and OC's

Wally woke up feeling an unfamiliar weight on his chest. As he looked down he saw a familiar mop of black hair. The hair of his girlfriend, and now lover, Zatanna.

Wally knew he was in the wrong yesterday, but it was also in the right, there really was no right answer, while if he had successfully sacrificed himself, Zatanna would have lost a boyfriend, but retained a father. While despite Wally's current feelings, there was no guarantee that their relationship would work out, and if he had let Zatara sacrifice himself, and Wally's and Zatanna's relationship didn't work out, it would be for nothing.

But now that just means that Wally had to always be there for her, and do everything in his power to protect her and love her

Wally stealthily slipped out from under Zatanna as she let out an unconscious groan from the loss of her heat source.

Wally put on his clothes and his suit over them. As he looked at the alarm next to Zatanna's bed, he could see it was only 7:30. And considering the battle they just had, everyone was most likely still asleep.

As Wally left the room he heard the sound of someone using the computers, as he followed the sounds and came upon Robin typing away on the caves computers.

"Hey man, what are you doing up?" Wally asked

"I always wake up this early. Batman's training" Robin said and Wally instantly understood.

"So anything interesting happening? The world getting back in gear after yesterday?" Wally asked

"Mostly just riot damage being fixed, graffiti being cleaned, when the two worlds merged the damages caused on each side stayed" Robin replied

"Well, on the children's side it was mostly vandalism, who knows what the adults did" Wally said

"I'm just hoping that we don't get any more missions for a few da-" Robin was interrupted by a video of Batman.

"God dammit" Robin muttered.

"Robin, Kid Flash, there's a villain sapping massive amounts of electricity from the power grid in Central City, since the Flash is indisposed of at the moment, the team is assigned to deal with it. Batman out" Batman said as the video link cut.

Robin sighed before turning to Kid Flash.

"Go wake up the team, I'll prep the mission details." Robin ordered before Kid Flash put his hand on his shoulder

"Hey, lets let the team sleep, they've all had a stressful day. We can deal with it just the two of us" Wally said

"And you haven't? KF, you were possessed by Nabu! You had a more stressful day than anyone here!" Robin said in a loud whisper.

"Even Zee? She just lost her dad man! Just let them sleep. Besides, its probably just Black Out again. He's really just a pushover. Me and Flash have dealt with him a dozen times!" Wally bargained

"Alright alright. I see your point. But if we get in too deep we are gonna have to call in the team" Robin stated, earning a thankful smile from KF.
As Wally and KF walked to the Zeta tube, Robin looked over to Kid Flash.

"So KF. The computer said that you haven't been in your room all night? What's that about?" Robin asked with a suggestive glint in his eyes. Knowing he was caught, Wally replied truthfully.

"I spent the night with Zee, when we came in last night she asked and I said yes, at first I thought she just wanted to be with someone while she slept, but it turned into way more than that..." Wally stated

"You don't mean!?" Robin asked incredulously

"Yeah. I tried to talk her out of it, saying she wasn't in the right mind, but she insisted. Wanted to make sure I never do anything like last night again" Wally said with a laugh.

"Holy shit" Robin muttered

"What's the matter Rob? Jealous?" Wally asked playfully.

"What? No!?" Robin denied

"Well. I'm sure that eventually you will grow the ball to ask Artemis out" Wally said teasingly causing Robin to blush

"Just shut up KF" Robin muttered as they arrived at the Zeta Tubes.

Currently Black out was standing in the center of Central City's power grid, as electricity flowed into him.

"More! I need more!" Black out roared, cop cars were standing just out of range, they knew that if they tried to take him down they'd just die. Their only choice was to wait for the Justice League.

Suddenly, two birdarangs were flying towards black out but he saw them coming and zapped them with a bolt of electricity causing them to explode.

"Give it up Black Out! It's only a matter of time before we beat you and send you back to Belle Reve!" called out a familiar voice

"Never! I need to feed!" Black out yelled as he started sapping from the grid again.

"Nope!" yelled Kid Flashed as he rushed in and delivered a swift punch to the side sending him rolling away, but he quickly got to his feet and slid to a stop, but as soon as Kid Flash came close to Black Out, some of the energy he was drawing out went straight into him, causing Kid Flash to wince in pain, but managed to show little pain, unfortunately, Black Out managed to catch a glimpse of this as he was rolling.

Robin managed to see the whole thing go down as well. So he prepped an alert to send to the cave just in case, and jumped into the fray. He had to be wary, Black Out could administer deadly long range attacks as well as close range.

So the key was getting in close enough as fast as possible or defeating him with ranged explosions. AND it was obvious whose job was who's.

Robin took out three birdarangs and let them fly towards Black Out who saw them and blasted them out of the air, Kid Flash took this chance to get in another hit by speeding over and spinning around as he lowered his body and swept his foot under Black Out's legs, and lifting his foot while hooked with his feet as to make Black Out land on his face and retreating.

Good thing too, as Black Out just exploded in electricity while screaming in anger.

"DON'T MESS WITH ME!" Black Out screamed as bolts of electricity surged all around him, attempting to find any source to be absorbed into, some bolts being absorbed into battery conduits around him, while most of the energy went straight for Wally.

"Shit!" Wally cursed as he tried to draw on his speed to run away but he just couldn't as the electricity flowed into him.

Wally let out a scream of pain as the electricity flowed throughout his body, causing his muscles to spasm and tear and his heart to speed up as he went into cardiac arrest. And to make it worse, Black Out, the villain with a serious temper, a partial sadistic vengeance, and a major parasitic apatite, was watching the whole thing, and he saw this as his chance.

His chance to take out all of his pent up aggression towards The Flash on his little side kick.

Black Out got up and walked towards Kid Flash and started generating electricity in his hands.

He started manically laughing as started pumping his entire reserves of energy into Kid Flash. Sure this would cause Black Out's appetite to grow even more, but this would be no problem.

Robin threw birdarang after birdarang at Black Out, but due to the energy being released around him, every time they got closed the energy blew them up.

'Shit!' Robin thought before he activated his wrist computer and called the cave. It didn't take long before the alert was answered and Aqualads face came on the screen, with M'gann, Superboy, Artemis, and Zatanna right behind him.

"Aqualad! Black Out, Central City. We thought we could take him on alone. Kid Flash is down and Black Out is pumping tons of energy into him. I can't get close. Get here fast! I will keep trying to get through!" Robin stated as Aqualad nodded in understanding and rushing to leave, but before the transmission cut off, he could see the look of horror on Zatanna's face. This was not a good two days for her, first Wally, then her dad to save Wally, and now Wally was in severe danger again.

Robin turned back to black out who seemed to be running out of juice, but his crazed laughter sure wasn't stopping any time soon. By this time, Wally was most likely unconscious, but his body was still spazzing out.

Black Out couldn't believe the day he was having. He struck unparalleled gold by having just the Boy Wonder and Kid Flash try to stop him, maybe if they had gotten her soon after he had arrived, but Black Out had been feeding for a good half hour before they arrived. And now he was watching Kid Flash spasm and his eyes roll back into his head, death was certain. Or so he thought, he had lost track of time and before he knew it, a glowing blue hammer struck him over the head, knocking him unconscious.

Aqualad and the team arrived as fast as super humanly possible, with the exception of the Flash. And Aqualad made quick work of the already severely weak Black Out, with his resistance to electricity.

Once he was sure Black Out was unconscious, his attention turned to the still seizing Kid Flash, Zatanna was trying her best to rid Wally of any excess electricity, while M'gann was trying to make sure he'd live long enough to receive medical attention. Robin was currently shouting into his wrist computer and Superboy was just watching on in his own version of worry, and that was barely suppressed rage. He was seething, not just at Black Out, but at Wally.

"Why the hell did you two have to go out on your own!" he yelled

"We thought we could handle it! He wanted to let you guys sleep in!" Robin defended himself, he knew it wasn't appropriate to defend his actions but he was scared.

Superboy let out an enraged roar and before Aqualad could attempt to calm him down. Kid Flash exploded.

Zatanna and M'gann were blasted back as electricity surged around Wally. Wally let out another pained cry as he suddenly rose to his knees and clutched his head in pain, and kept screaming. He bashed his head against the ground multiple times.

"Wally! Stop!" Aqualad shouted

"Wally!" Zatanna screamed out

Anybody that tried to approach him was sent flying back by a bolt of electricity.

None of their pleas reached his ears. Hell, they could barely hear each other over his screaming and the insanely loud crackling of electricity.

Slowly, Wally stood up on his too feet, clenching his teeth shut, he trudged over to the biggest battery conduit near him. Wally tore open the conduit and forced the electricity to be absorbed into the conduit.

Wally's will gave out as he let out another scream of pain but he forced himself to hold on and force the energy into the conduit.

The team watched on in a mix of horror and amazement as the energy around Wally began decreasing and decreasing until he was just left standing there. His outfit severely burnt and in some areas non-existent. The area around him was extremely blackened and charred. Wally's hair was sticking straight up and his eyes were completely white, with a feint electric glow to them.

As Wally fell to his knees and then on his face his team surrounded him, but their voices were drowned out by the encroaching blackness of unconsciousness.

Several major members of the league including every team members mentor, even Superman, as well as Wonder Woman and Doctor Fate. They were all standing around the hospital bed of one Wally West. Barry Allen, also known as the Flash was sitting in the chair next to the bed with his head in his hands. Zatanna was in the chair on the other side of his bed holding his hand, her eyes bloodshot and red.

He was in a coma. There was no telling how long he would stay like this. The members of the team hung their heads in silent mourning. Robin was taking it the hardest next to Zatanna. Why did he have to give in to Wally's proposition. It was a clearly stupid idea, but like a fool he gave in.

The only person who was taking it nearly as hard as Zatanna, was Barry. He was the kids mentor. He should have been there. Black out was far too dangerous for Wally to handle by himself. But he just had to have a mission that put him half way across the world. Wonder Woman walked up to him and placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Barry. It's not your fault. You couldn't have known he was attempting to take on the mission solo" Wonder Woman stated

"Except he wasn't alone!" Robin stated

"Robin..." Aqualad said trying to calm him down

"I was with him. And I should have known that the both of us weren't enough for Black Out" Robin said as he clenched his fists tightly.

"If only I had felt him leaving the bed" Zatanna said, not fully knowing what she had just said.

The entirety of the members of the room stared at her in utter shock, especially Barry, Wonder Woman, and the team. Artemis and M'gann were blushing horribly, while Barry's childish attitude took over and he stared at his apprentice with looks of pride and a mental 'congratulations!'.

Before anyone could say anything doctor fate spoke up.

"Host Zatara is emmiting extremely high level of rage at Zatannas words. I do not understand. Would someone clarify?" the two combined voices of Zatara and Nabu said. Wonder Woman walked over and whispered something into his ear, his eyes widened as well as Superboy and Superman who blushed as well.

"Zatara's rage levels have increased further. I will be taking my leave. He is suggesting I do... violent actions towards the boy" Doctor fate stated before leaving the room. While Doctor Fate's interruption had succeeded in lightening the mood, as all attention turned back to Wally and Zatanna, her face was beet red.

"*cough* Well I think we should all return to our posts" Superman said before leaving the room, and soon everyone followed. Last being The Flash, who gave one last proud look at Wally. His regret and blame vanished.

"D-d-d-d-id y-y-you g-g-g-guys a-actually-" M'gann stuttered as she asked.

"Please don't ask" Zatanna stated not lifting her face from the hospital bed.

"Oh my!" M'gann exclaimed before stumbling out of the room. It didn't take long before all of the team left due to the tension in the room.

"Oh god Wally. Now everyone knows. Even my dad" She muttered, and the hand that she was holding flinched. Her attention snapped to his eyes which were still shut, with a sigh she lay'd her head down and closed her eyes.

Wally regained consciousness in a familiar hallway as he starred down into the darkness.

When he turned around he saw a familiar crystal barrier in front of him, only this time, it was littered with cracks. A giant spider-web crack in the center spreading out over the entire wall. And some of the energy on the other side was leaking through. Wally tried pushing against the wall, and surprisingly, it gave some way, but not enough to do anything with.

Wally looked behind him down the dark hallway, he had already tried running down that hall, but it just goes on forever.

"Why am I here again?" Wally asked himself as he struggled to remember. All he could remember was searing pain, blinding light, then darkness. And a face. A face burned into his mind, and not in the bad way. It was the face of the one he loved. Zatanna. What was happening in the outside world? Was he dead? Oh god he better not be dead. He couldn't do that to Zatanna, not ever, she had lost more than any teenager ever should. Her family. And he wouldn't let her lose him as well.

"The exit has to be on the other side of that wall!" Wally shouted to himself before trying to punch the wall. While he could feel some effect, it wasn't good enough, his wrist would break long before he made it through.

"C'mon!" Wally roared as he punched the wall again, and that's when a memory came to him. A memory of him and Barry.

"Wally. Whenever you come across a enemy that just won't budge, always remember this, you're a speedster. It's always a good idea to get a good running start" Barry said to him.

"Alright Wall-man. A running start. You're the best speedster ever to exist. A running start, OK!" Wally said before tapping into his speed and running down the hallway. Once he got a significant distance away, he slid to a halt and turned back. He got into the classic track stance and his muscles visible strained as lightning crackled all around him.

"C'mon Wally! C'MON!" Wally chanted as he pushed him that extra bit before taking off down the hallway in a flash, within seconds, he saw the barrier and he brought his fist back before pushing forward one last time as a boom resounded through the hallway and his fist made impact and it instantly shattered the already cracked wall around it and Wally flew through to the other side of the wall.

Instantly he was assaulted by all the lightning on the other side, but unlike every other time he was shocked by lightning, this felt familiar. It was the same feeling he gets whenever he draws on his speed, like a force for nature it compelled him to run, and that's what he did, as he took off down the hall, he saw the halway around him crumbling away to reveal light behind it.

Soon he could see he was in a world he could barely describe. Energy, and lightning and...speed. It was everywhere, it felt like he was in a forest. That peaceful feeling you cant help but feel when you are in a forest, something in te back of his mind was telling him to stop running, and stay here, forever. But he knew he had to get back, so he kept on running. And eventually, his vision went blurry, and then white.

Wally sat up with a gasp of air and scrambled out of bed and fell on the floor. It was dark in the room he was in, but he could tell he was in the med bay. He felt like he had too much energy pent up inside him, and his feet just started moving on their own, soon he was running, he ran straight into the Zeta tube and he was barely able to slow himself down enough to let the Zeta tube teleport him where ever it was set to.

Zatanna was woken up by the sound of the caves computer speaking 'Recognized, Kid Flash 0-3' instantly she looked at the hospital bed where her boyfriend was supposed to be and he wasn't their, she felt amazingly happy, it had nearly been three weeks since he fell into that coma, but he was also confused as to why he left, and a little pissed as well.

She wen't to everyone's room and woke them up and told them about what had happened.

Once everyone had gathered Conner asked the question everyone else was about to.

"So you're saying he just left?" Conner asked

"Yeah, the cave's computer woke me up, he used the zeta tube. I have no idea why he left without saying anything"

"It says he went to Central City, but he didn't put in anything, the caves security cameras show him waking up and he just started running and ran straight into the Zeta Tube" said Robin who was checking the caves computers.

"We need to find him." said Zatanna

"I don't think we can keep up with him" responded Artemis

"Then there's only one person who can. The Flash" Robin said

Barry was currently sleeping in his house next to his wife Iris when his league communicator went off.

With a groan he clumsily grabbed it and put it in his ear and turned it on.

"Flash. Kid Flash is somwehere in Central City. We need you to find him, we don't know why but he left the cave in a hurry without telling anyone and Zeta'd to central City without entering any coordinates. Batman Out"

Barry was shocked. Wally was awake. He needed to get mooving. He put on his ring and turned over and kissed Iris on her head and heard her mutter 'Be safe' before turning over and snuggling deeper into the covers. He chuckled lightly before remembering what he needed to do.

Barry rushed out of the house and as soon as he left he activated his ring which released his Flash suit which he pulled over himself and sped off.

It didn't take long before a yellow blur sped past him, immediately he followed after and sped to follow it, at first, he wasn't sure it was Wally, he could never move this fast, but who else could it be? Flash sped up to catch up to the boy, he had to push himself a little bit, but eventually he came up next to Wally. And as he looked over to him, he saw Wally in the remains of a t-shirt and boxers, which luckily, were the same as all of Wally's boxers. Friction-less.

"Oh hey Uncle Barry!" Wally said cheerily.

"Wally! Kid? What the hell are you doing?" Barry asked

"Just out for a run. I woke up and had so much energy I could barely hold it. So i just started running!" Wally replied

"What the hell? How are you running this fast anyway? You've never been able to run this fast before?" Barry asked

"Not sure. It might have something to do with my coma" Wally replied, and Barry looked a little down as he said that

"Hey, it wasnt your fault. Hey man, wanna race!?" Wally asked excitedly

"Race? Wally, you need to get back to the cave! They are worried about you!" Barry advised

"Oh come on Uncle Barry! I promise to go back after one race. Whoever makes it around the world first adn back here wins!" Wally offered

"Around the world? Wally, you've never been able to go that long before!" Barry exclaimed

"Then you'll have no trouble winning wont you!" Wally said

"Alright... fine" Barry sighed before they headed towards the city limits.

"Alright Uncle Barry. Try to keep up!" Wally said before he started gaining distance on Barry

"What the hell? Like hell I'm loosing to my apprentice!" Barry exclaimed before he picked up speed and started closing the distance on Wally, but before he could meet him, Wally increased his speed again. He could hear arrogant laughing coming from the boy.

"Dammit!" Barry exclaimed before pushing himself harder trying to match the speed of Wally.

This carried on for quite a while before at some point over the ocean, Wally let out comical maniacal laughter and letting loose and gaining distance very fast.

Soon, Barry found Wally standing at their starting point with a very long skid line. Barry started slowing to a skid as well and when he stopped he put his hands on his knees and started panting.

"You must be getting old Uncle Barry!" Wally said arrogantly even thoug he himself was breathing just as hard.

"Christ Wally, when the hell did you get so fast. You've been in a coma for the last three weeks for Christ sake!" Barry exclaimed

"Three weeks huh? Damn, well, while I was out I was in this hallway, and there was this barrier with a bunch of cracks in it, and I remembered what you told me about head starts, so I ran far and then turned back and ran as fast as I could and broke through the barrier and ran through a speed forest and then I woke up" Wally said, a rather crappy explanation on his part but good enough.

"So you broke through a barrier? Could it be possible that this internal barrier was what's been holding you back all along?"

"Makes sense, didn't you say I needed to get back to the cave?" Wally asked, Barry chose not to reply and just let him realize it on his own.

It took a few moments too long, but eventually, Wally's smile dropped into a frown, and that frown turned into a look of sheer horror.

"Oh god Zatanna! Son of a bitch I forgot about Zatanna!" Wally screamed in horror as he sped off to find the nearest Zeta tube.

Everyone was waiting in the cave for any news on Wally.

Zatanna wasn't the only one worried, everyone else was just as concerned about their resident speedster.

Suddenly the computer sounded out 'Recognized, Kid Flash 0-3'

All attention snapped up.

"Zatanna! Oh gods forgive me!" the voice cried before in a flash Wally was in the room and picked up Zatanna into a hug

"Please forgive me Zee, but I had to run, I had so much energy, but I beat Barry in a race so now i'm good. Im sorry I forgot about you guys!" Wally apologized

"Wally...your killing me" Zatanna squeaked out before she was released. They all stared at Wally. It didn't take long before he noticed their stares and looked down to notice he was still in his boxers.

"Oh. Hold on" Wally said before he sped off and in a flash he was back in his Kid Flash suit

"Sorry Guys" He said with a chuckle as he scratched the back of his head.

Zatanna walked up and slapped him across the face. Before pulling him into a kiss. Only when a cough was heard did they separate and sit down as Kid Flash told them a more detailed explanation of what happened.

"You beat The Flash in a race!?" Robin shouted/asked

"Yup!" Wally responded simply

"And you just had so much energy you needed to let it out?" Superboy asked

"Yep!" He responded again

"It's too early for this shit" Superboy said before leaving

Soon everyone left to return to their beds. It was still early in the morning. And it was just Zatanna and him left.

"I'm really sorry Zee, but I was having so much fun running so fast that I just forgot about everything" He apologized one more, but instead of an answer, he got a passionate kiss. Before he could try to deepen it, she separated from him. Now stradling him.

"You will never go on a solo mission that's to dangerous." she stated firmly

"But Robin was wi-"

"Never" she continued

"Yes love" he replied and earned another kiss for that.

"You owe me a date tomorrow" She continued

"Why not today?" he asked

"Ive spent the majority of the last three weeks sleeping in a chair. I wan't to sleep the rest of the day in a bed"

"Alright" he agreed and earned yet another kiss

"And lastly, you are going to spend the whole day with me. I've missed you Wally" She said before leaning in for one last kiss which she allowed him to deepen. Once they had to break for air. She got off of him and headed for his room.

"Follow" she stated

"Yes love" he replied, and he could have sworn he heard someone say the word 'whipped!'.

He just grumbled to himself as he entered into his room and found her sitting on his bed in her pajamas.

"Gimme a second" he replied before regularly changing into a t-shirt and boxers.

Once he had changd he layed down next to Zatanna and she wrapped her arm around him and 'cuddled him', and was out like a light.

'Just woke up from a three week coma and she expects me to sleep?' he thought

"No I don't expect you to sleep. You're just gonna have to lay there and keep me warm" she mumbled. Damn, he thought she was sleeping. And how the hell could she tell what he was thinking!?

I hope you liked it. I have no idea how many more chapters this will have, I want a climax chapter and then possible a epilogue chapter, but that can be put in the climax chapter. So you know there is at least one more coming. Don't expect any more chapters in the next week, I want to plan the rest out. Ive been doing all of this at random. Anyway, finished this at 2:45 AM.

Also, if you think Black Out was strange, I had no reference besides the CW's The Flash, so I basically had to make him my own character.
