AUTHOR'S NOTE: Oliver's POV. Also sorry for the short chapter! I have AP tests this week and next week and finals are coming up soon so I might not be able to update as often :( or if I do they'll probably be really short chapters. SORRY :(((( EDIT: I HAD TO REDO THIS CHAPTER AND DELETE THE PREVIOUS ONE BECAUSE I MISSED A HUGE PART THAT I WAS REMINDED OF SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE.

If Oliver was completely honest with himself he was pretty damn annoyed at Barry right now. So when his phone rang and the caller I.D was Barry he was a bit hesitant to answer, regardlessly he ended up answering.

"Hello?" Oliver answered not unkindly but frustrated.

"he..lp" was all that Oliver heard from the other line, and Barry's voice did not sound so good. "Hello? Barry? What happened?" Oliver asked quickly.

No Reply

Okay now Oliver was starting to panic."Barry? Are you there? Barry! This better not be a prank!" Oliver yelled through the phone but he was truthfully really concerned. Oliver hung up and immediately went to S.T.A.R labs, he had to track down Barry's phone fast.

FLASHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Oliver stalked into the cortex to see Cisco and Caitlin by the computers. "Guys you need to track Barry's phone right now" Oliver ordered not bothering to greet the two friends.

"Hello to you too Oliver..what are you doing here?" Cisco asked "Not that it's bad or anything, just wondering why you're all the way here..in central" Cisco trailed off awkwardly.

"Just track Barry's phone Cisco NOW" Oliver said completely disregarding what Cisco had just asked. He wasn't trying to be rude, but Barry was obviously in trouble and Oliver was too focused on helping him to think about anything else.

"Okay, Okay, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed today" Cisco mumbled and starting tracking Barry's phone. "Why do you need to track his phone anyways, you know you could just ca-"

"Where's his phone" Oliver interrupted without a second thought.

"A few blocks away from Jitters...you should be able to find him there" Cisco said not wanting to infuriate Oliver anymore than he already has. If looks could kill, Cisco would be dead right now because Oliver was glaring at him like a hawk.

"Alright, thanks" Oliver said as he walked out of the cortex.

"Wonder what that was about" Caitlin said under her breath.

"Me too" Cisco agreed.

FLASHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

"Barry!" Oliver was walking around an alleyway nearby Jitters, he had been calling Barry's name for the past 10 minutes and he still hadn't found his younger friend. Oliver tried calling Barry's phone so he could follow the sound of the ring, not too long afterwards he spotted the young csi sprawled on the floor not moving.

"Barry!" Oliver rushed to his side immediately. "Barry?" Oliver instantly panicked when he noticed the gunshot wound on Barry's abdomen. "Oh my god Barry" Oliver muttered under his breath. Oliver knelt down checked Barry's pulse immediately. He felt a rush of relief, the pulse was weak but it was there. Oliver took of his own jacket and pressed it against Barry's bullet wound applying pressure. He felt Barry start to stir awake as a whimper escaped his lips. "Barry stay with me, you're going to be okay..stay with me alright?" Oliver said softly as he carefully lifted up Barry into his arms. Barry went in and out of consciousness for a while, Oliver was just glad he was still breathing. Oliver sighed and slowly walked over to where he had left his vehicle The hard part would be getting Barry over to S.T.A.R labs...on a motorcycle.

FLASHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Barry couldn't see anything. His eyelids felt like lead and he could feeling himself slowly gaining consciousness. He didn't know why but his left side hurt like hell. He felt himself jolt up sucking in a gush of air and taking in his surroundings. He felt strong, calloused hands push him back on what seemed to be..a hospital bed? Wait no, he was in the med-bay, in S.T.A.R labs, and those strong hands were Oliver's…...right now he remembered what happened. Sure enough Cisco, Caitlin, Joe and Iris were there as well, all of them giving him worried looks. He was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard his name.

"Sorry what was that?" Barry asked looking around sheepishly.

His team shared worried glances before Joe spoke up again. "I asked how you were feeling"

"And if you remember anything" Oliver added.

"Uhh yeah..I do" Barry mumbled. He was pretty embarrassed that he got taken down by a mugger...a mugger for god's sake. When he had his speed he would boast about how easy it was to get away from a mugger..and now here he was on a hospital bed in S.T.A.R labs because a mugger shot him..wow.

"Well? What happened? You were unconscious when I found you in the alleyway." Oliver explained "Do you remember who shot you?" Oliver asked all frustration from earlier gone.

"Some..mugger" Barry said lowly avoiding any eye contact.

"Well I stitched up your bullet wound and injected with you with some morphine to numb the pain..are you in much pain?" Caitlin asked

"No, I feel fine" Barry lied. He felt like shit, absolute shit. Wasn't morphine supposed to make you feel like you were walking on clouds?

"Are you sure Barry?" Oliver asked. He couldn't help but feel guilty about what happened. He felt like it was his fault..maybe if he hadn't been so rough with Barry about his scars Barry wouldn't be in this situation.

"I'm sure" Barry retorted quickly. Maybe a little too quickly.

Oliver gave Barry a doubtful look and was about to say something before Barry's foster father started speaking.

"Oliver told us you've been training with him..why?" Joe asked adressing the elephant in the room.

"Why do you think?" Barry responded rather coldly.

"Barry you're crazy if you think you're going out there fighting metas without your powers" Joe retaliated equally as cold.

"Why not? Oliver doesn't have powers and he protects Star City just fine, maybe even better than I do with my powers!" Barry countered raising his voice a little.

"You are not Oliver!" Joe yelled stepping closer to his foster son.

Oliver felt extremely uncomfortable, he just stayed quiet and watched the two battle it out talking about him as if he wasn't there.

"THAT'S WHY I ASKED HIM TO TRAIN ME!" Barry snapped. The whole room went quiet and Barry sighed. "I-I'm sorry I just...I need to do something..powers or not I'm always going to try to protect me city, whether it's as Barry Allen or as The Flash" Barry said.

Joe sighed and ran a hand through his face. "Just think about it Barr alright?" Joe said leaving the cortex.

"I need to go..work" Cisco said awkwardly leaving the tensed situation. Caitlin and Iris followed him leaving the room to Barry and Oliver. Oliver walked up to Barry and put a hand on his shoulder. "Listen Barry, if you want to stop trai-"

"No." Barry cut him off "I'm not going to stop whether Joe likes it or not" Barry stated firmly.

"Okay" Oliver commented unsurely"But not until you're fully healed okay?" Barry just nodded and rolled his eyes "Yeah okay"

"Okay….are you ready to learn sparring?" Oliver asked his lips curving into a small smile.

"You bet"
