Impulse was running as fast as he could and stopped as he was about to enter Central City where in the future everything went wrong in the year 2020.

" The day someone's death changed everything". Impulse whispered and remembered the day he read Wally's journal. One year before he arrived in this time line.

Flashback

2053

Ten year old Bart Allen or rather Impulse was looking through what he could find in his grandfathers old home in Central.

Impulse found a book on the floor in a room and picked it up.

Kid Flash/ Flash's Journal January

15 2020 - December 12 2051

Impulse's eyes widened and he couldn't believe what he found. His cousin's three times removed journal! One of the original Renegades!

" This is so crash"! Impulse whispered shouted opening the first page and began to read.

January 15 2020

The Renegades fell apart today. We knew this going to happen. We've lost three of us already. Four now. Terra, Aquagirl, Jinx and now Flame Bird, the one that changed everything. Nightwing lost it today also. He went rogue. Artemis and I tried to keep us together but everyone fell apart. We were a family for many years. Red Hood left with Red Arrow and Kori. They formed the Outlaws. Red Robin formed the Teen Titans with a few Renegades and Young Justice was formed with the protégées of the league with the Renegades who took leaguers names except Artemis and I. We retired. Everyone scattered and we left without a good bye.

January 16 2020

I felt weird as I got up. I didn't hear Beast Boy and Cyborg playing video games, Impulse making gross sounds as he watched someone kiss. I didn't hear Red Hood and Nightwing arguing, Robin and Spoiler laughing at each other. It's only been a day and I feel like I won't make it. After so many years of hanging out with fifty people in one home it feels so wrong to only be with one. Artemis and I are getting married. I wish the Renegades could see us now or Nightwing. The one who brought us together.

February 14 2020

Artemis and I got married today in Central City. Somehow everyone knew and came. Zatanna, Rocket, and Starfire were Artemis's bridesmaids. Red Hood was my best man. Nightwing wasn't there but somehow I knew he was there at some point. He left his emblem on the floor along with an envelope. It said he was happy for me and he'll see me soon if he could. What's that mean? If he could?

April 1 2020

I found Nightwing today at his parents graves. We chatted and he showed me his home. An abandon apartment building. I finally found out why he said if he could see me. Slade was on the move. Nightwing told me Slade had caught him last month and after two weeks Wing escaped. He also told me he found out Slade had a daughter. Ravager.

Ravager helped Nightwing escape and she disappeared right after. Nightwing told me he'd keep in touch and he left without a trace.

April 20 2020

I met Ravager today. She was just a girl version of Renegade. Ravager told me she had heard about the Renegades when we still together and thought about joining but never got around to that part of the city. Jericho reunited with her and she learned sign language.

May 15 2020

I saw Nightwing again today. It was the four month anniversary of the one death that changed everything. Nightwing looked like a disaster and was drunk. He was a mess. I took him home and it looked like Red Hood's apartment not Wings. Bottles everywhere along with cans. It was heartbreaking. I left after Red Hood arrived an hour later.

June 20 2020

Artemis is pregnant. I want a boy she wants a girl. Artemis said if it's a girl her names Amber in memory of Flame Bird, if it's a boy were not sure yet. Nightwing was the first to know. Somehow he already knew and thought if it's a boy Blitz. Red Robin was next to think of a boy name. Dash. We weren't to sure but we'd figure it out eventually.

July 4 2020

I watched the fireworks with Nightwing in Central City. He had a scar that went across his right eye. It reminded me of Slade. I asked him about it and he said a sword accident. That's all he said. No mention of Slade. I was worried about my best friend. He had lost weight big time and he was beginning to shut people out. He gave me a letter right after the fireworks and left. I opened the letter and saw a picture of all the renegades together. On the back of it said I'll see you in time again- Wing. What the hell did that mean?

July 15 2020

Turns out the message on the back of picture wasn't referring to me or any other Renegade that was alive. It meant Flame Bird. The one death that changed everything. After her death we scattered and fell apart. Without Nightwing it became chaos. Artemis couldn't control anyone anymore. All we did was argue. Catwomen couldn't do it either so she gave up on us. Last time I heard she was going out with Batman.

August 7 2020

I saw Robin for the first in months today. He was fourteen now and he lives with his father Batman. He's still with Spoiler. She's twenty now and worked at Wayne Enterprises. Spoiler has her own place in Gotham not far from the manor. I also saw Black Bat that day. She lived with Spoiler and was still dating Jericho.

August 18 2020

Red Robin was looking for Nightwing and Red Hood. Both had disappeared. He asked if I had seen them. The last time I saw Wing was one month ago almost two. Hood I hadn't seen him in who knows how long. We sent out an alert to every Renegade. I hope we find them soon. Slade broke out of jail and who knows what'll happen if he finds Hood and Wing before us.

September 15 2020

We found Nightwing and Red Hood today in Tokyo. Turns out Slade was trying to destroy us one by one. Ravager was the one who called everyone. Red Hood disappeared once again after Slade shot his own daughter. Wing brought Ravager back to Titans Tower in Jump City then left once again.

September 20 2020

Nightwing has a daughter. Turns out he had one with Flame Bird which is why they were both gone for nine months. One month before Flame Bird passed the baby was born. Her names Phoenix. I met her today after Wing showed her to me. The name Phoenix was perfect. Flame Bird passed away but arose from the ashes becoming Phoenix. I asked who baby sat. M'gann did I should've known. Her and Connor who expecting a girl in two months apparently. Martin Girl was to be her name. December 14th 2019 was Phoenix's birthday. I asked who baby sat before we split and who had for the past few months. The first month it was the hospital. Wing payed to keep her there then Flame Bird passed so he took Phoenix and put her with the Teen Titans in Jump until now.

November 4th 2020

I got drunk last night with Red Hood. I'm not really sure how the hell Hood appeared but oh well. Hood told me him and Starfire didn't work out. They broke up last month after Starfire had to return to Tamaran as the princess permanently after Blackfire tried to destroy everyone who disobeyed her. That's the whole planet. She's in prison for a while. I got home late and Artemis started yelling at me the moment I stepped inside. She was due any day now. We're having twins. Amber and Blitz.

November 20th 2020

I'm a father. Every Renegade was there including Starfire and even Ravager. Nightwing was there with his daughter and everyone adored her. She looked like Flame Bird more then anything but had Nightwing's eyes and hair. Phoenix wore a small mask along with a red shirt with flames at the bottom along with a . Phoenix was almost a year how time flys by.

November 25 2020

I was back at the hospital today except in Metropolis and not Central. M'gann and Superboy had their daughter. Super Martian. She was beautiful. She had Superboy's eyes, skin and hair. The rest of her facial features looked like her mother. Phoenix was cute looking at Martian Girl. She took Super Martians hand in her own. Nightwing spaced out and he handed Phoenix over to Red Hood stepping outside. I followed and Wing told me Phoenix had done the same thing with Flame Bird when he held her. That was all Wing said before we walked back inside and Hood was holding out as far as his arms would go. Wing laughed and everyone smiled. It was good to hear that laugh.

November 26 2020

It was thanksgiving and every Renegade returned to the hospital for M'gann and Superboy. Phoenix wouldn't stop crying after we ate and Nightwing looked like he was about to pass out. Catwomen was there and tears of joy came to her eyes as she saw Amber, Dash and Phoenix for the first time. She held Dash and smiled as he grabbed her mask. I looked at Nightwing as he let out a cough which led to a coughing fit. That wasn't good. He was sick. Catwomen took Phoenix and started to cry. Phoenix was the last thing we had of Flame Bird other then pictures and memories. Nightwing grabbed some water and took Phoenix back and said he'll see us soon. I believed him.

December 14 2020

Phoenix was one today and we had the party at our old home. Phoenix, Amber, Super Martian and Dash all played together and Phoenix shoved cake all over her face. I got a picture and laughed as Nightwing had to put out a fire from M'gann. Something's never change. I saw Nightwing's face when we were all together and I screamed were getting back together! Everyone just stared at me and soon everyone screamed yes! Nightwing just stared at me before he smiled and mouthed thanks. I smiled back. Our family was back.

December 25 2020

We celebrated Christmas with the league at the hotel. Nightwing was sick. I could tell. Nothing seemed the same even that we were back together. We weren't staying together again. Christmas was a disaster. We only fought and it ended in flames. Literally. Nightwing tried his hardest to keep everyone down but he took Phoenix told me good bye and good luck. We once again scattered and the league just let us be.

January 15 2021

One year today. One year ago today we lost Flame Bird and it all went to hell. She was the one who kept Wing together and Wing was the one who kept us together. Without Flame Bird there was no hope. I haven't seen Wing since Christmas and I was worried especially when I saw Nightwing had gone missing while Phoenix was with Red Robin. They were on the news and Red Robin looked devastated. He was the last one seen with Nightwing and he was been asking twenty thousand questions. Hood appeared out of nowhere and disappeared with Red Robin and Phoenix. Robin was there also for a slip second and so was Ravager.

February 17 2021

No sign of Nightwing and it's been one month and two days. The Renegades were looking everywhere including me. We were all getting worried. So worried we got together at the hotel. That ended in disaster. We couldn't agree on anything. Red Hood suddenly arrived with Phoenix and he looked like hell. Nightwing was twenty times worse as he walked in next with Red Robin and Robin on either side. I ran to Wing and Phoenix grabbed his hand making him smile. Wing sat down and Phoenix climbed into his lap. The father and daughter passed out a few minutes and nobody moved them. We were just happy Wing was home.

Present

" IMPULSE"! Kid Flash shouted snapping the speedster out of his thoughts. " Thank god your safe! You've been gone for almost an hour hours"!

" AN HOUR"! Impulse shouted surprised

" You alright. You worry me".

Impulse wanted to tell him everything right then and there but if he did he would mess up time even more.

" Something's happen in the future that aren't pretty. Can we change the subject". Impulse said

" You can talk to me about anything. I'll always be here". Kid Flash said putting a hand on Impulse's shoulder.

"I'll race you home"! Impulse shouted changing the subject.

" Your on"!

As Bart ran his mind went to Phoenix. She was the leader of the rebellion in the future. Powerful, caring but fierce, smart, fast, born a leader. Just like her father.

Phoenix, Amber, Dash, Super Martian were the first four original Renegades children and soon more followed joining the rebellion and within a couple years reformed the Renegades following in their parents footsteps.

" Impulse"! Kid Flash shouted as he saw his cousin fly through the doors of the hotel.

Impulse slammed right into Oracle as he tried to stop but failed. The two went a few feet before they stopped.

" I'm sorry"! Impulse said helping Oracle up.

" I've been slammed into by everyone here Impulse. It's no big deal".

" Where's Rob and Spoiler".

" In the other room talking".

" So". Robin said

" I know why you don't like being called Dami".

" Wing's the only person that calls me that. He panicked and whenever somebody says it I flashback to that day".

" You care about him don't you".

" He gave me a family".

" He gave me one to".

" Wing gave everyone one". Kid Flash said and looked at the wall.

It was every Renegade to this very day. Black Bat and Spoiler were even on there already.

" Who's Jinx"? Spoiler asked seeing her picture up.

" Were looking for her hoping she'll leave the H.I.V.E. Wing handles that so were waiting".

" How old was Wing when he left".

" Fifteen. Then we formed the Renegades and he formed the beginning of our own family".

" What happened to yours"?

" My father beat me so I left and lived on the streets. I was ten when I left. Never looked back".

" Not even once"?

Kid Flash thought about it for a moment. Did he look back? No. He couldn't look back.

" Not once. This is my family now and you and everyone else is what matters. Not the past".

Kid Flash left without saying another word. Spoiler let his words sink in.

Never look back? That was probably both good and bad. Good because you forget about everything and the bad is you forgot everything! But was that really bad?

" You know your thinking out loud right". Robin said

" Ugh no I didn't". Spoiler said awkwardly

Robin stared at Spoiler and she stared back. They leaned closer and closer until there lips touched.

" Ewww! Why do I always manage to catch someone kiss"! Impulse shouted and ran out.

Robin and Spoiler pulled apart and both were blushing.

" I'm gonna check on Wing". Robin said still blushing and backed up into the wall making Spoiler giggle.

" Hey little Wing". Nightwing whispered

" I kissed Spoiler". Robin blurted laying next to his leader.

" That's great! She's perfect for you".

" We couldn't find Jinx so were waiting for you".

" I'll be up in eleven".

" eleven days! Wing that's risky even for you! We have you set for four weeks"!

" Thats to long. Relax Dami I'll be fine".

" You always say that".

" I'm right aren't I".

" Mostly".

" What time is it".

" Eight thirty why"?

" I'm tired".

" Then sleep Wing idiot".

" You need to stop hanging around Hood".

" That's kinda hard since we live together".

" Good point". Nightwing said yawning.

" I'll see you later Wing". Robin said before closing the door.

" How is he". Cyborg asked as he caught Robin on the stairs.

" He believes he'll be up in eleven days recruiting Jinx".

" Stubborn as always. Anything else"?

" He has fallen asleep".

" Thanks Rob".

Robin just waved his hand and saw Beast Boy and Impulse playing a Mario Kart on the Wii. He grabbed a remote and decided to play.

" I'm winning"! Impulse shouted

" Now I'm winning". Robin said with a smirk as he caused Impulse's car to hit the grass.

" I hate you".

" Right back at cha".

Five games later Robin won every single one. Impulse insisted he cheated.

" I still he cheated". Impulse told Beast Boy as Robin left.

" You think everyone who beats you cheats".

" They do"!

Beast Boy just rolled his eyes and kept his eyes focused on the screen.

" So do you think Jinx will join us". Impulse asked Beast Boy

" Without a doubt".

" How can you be so sure".

" Who doesn't want a family where no one will judge you"?

" Good point. Do you think the League will find us"?

" Psshhh are you kidding? They would've found us already. There's no possible way they can find us".

* Watchtower*

" They found Spoiler and Black Bat already". Flash said shocked

" Started early. These kids know how to work". Wonder Women said

" They're only children". Batman said

Everyone knew he wouldn't admit it but he was proud of these kids. They made their own family. One where no one would hurt each other at all.

" Our only hope now is Jinx". Green Arrow said

" No". Batman said surprising everyone. " Jinx belongs with the Renegades".

" Wow. The damn Batman is showing some emotion". Flash said earning a glare.

" Jinx wouldn't be happy here anyway". Black Canary said " Every child deserves to be happy".

" We find one and they'll lead us straight to their home". Batman said

" What time are they out and about". Flash asked

" Noon to Midnight".

" So an hour and a half we search".

" Do not be seen".

Everyone nodded and left the room. Batman stayed and opened Nightwing's files.

There was nothing new really except Black Bat and Spoiler were now part of a different file.

" I'm sorry I couldn't get to you first". Batman whispered before heading to Gotham.
