A/N: I was going through the reviews and Mark in Orlando pointed out that Wally would know about Roy being the clone, preventing Vandal Savage from making them go to Rimbor, meaning the Reach would have never come to Earth and he wouldn't have gone back in time. I thought about it for a while, and this is the best I was able to come up with:
Vandal Savage: Well played. But the Light always has contingencies. (Summit)
Placing all of their plans on the Justice League not learning that Roy was a clone seems downright reckless by their standards. Sure, Red Arrow won't succeed, but that doesn't mean they don't have more plans that Wally doesn't know about because they were never needed.
Neither Kid Flash nor Artemis appear in Targets or Terrors, so I'm skipping both of them.

" Care to tell me what I saw?"
M'Gann was angry. Upset, scared, and sad, but mostly angry.
" I can explain! I was going to tell you guys! I just-"
" What is going on here?" Batman seemingly materialized out of nowhere.
" Wally has something he would like to tell you" said M'Gann
Batman glared at Wally. Even after knowing him for years, that look still scared the crap out of him.
" Do I have to?" Wally asked pleadingly
" What do you think?" responded Batman
" It all started years ago-"
" Cut to the chase"
" I'm from five years in the future"
Batman raised an eyebrow. Kaldur and Conner, who had walked into the room, were listening closely.
" Go on"
Wally sighed. He said everything. Again. He was really bad at keeping secrets.
" Anything else I should know?"
Wally thought about it for a second.
" Roy is a clone!" he exclaimed
" Roy?" said Kaldur, questioningly "How is this possible?"
" He was kidnapped shortly after becoming Speedy, and replaced with a clone"
Again, bad at keeping secrets. In Wally's defense, there were few people on Earth who would not crack under a Bat-glare.
Batman said he would look into it, and left.
Wally was approached by the three team members that didn't know before.
" Why didn't you tell us?"
" How could you?"
" I'm so confused. What just happened?"
Wally sighed
" I just explained this to Batman, I'm not explaining it to you three again"
" The three of us?" asked Kaldur
All three of them looked at Robin and Artemis.
" You knew?"
They both started to explain, but Wally stopped them.
" It's not their fault. I told them"
Kaldur seemed a little more worried about something else.
" Is Roy really a mole?"
" It's not his fault either. Three years ago, the original Roy Harper was replaced with a clone, who was programmed to join and subsequently betray the Justice League. He didn't know about any of it until it was too late"
He seemed satisfied with this answer. Or at least as satisfied as one can be after finding out that one of his best friends was a clone sent to betray his team.

" Not that I'm complaining or anything, but who are you?"
The girl looked like she was going to start crying again.
" It's me, Artemis"
" Sorry, but I don't know any Artemis. Are you sure you I'm who you think I am?"
Flash, Superboy, M'Gann, Kaldur, another speedster, a blue flying thing, and some guy in a black and blue outfit ran over. Now that he thought about it, that last guy kind of looked like a taller version of Robin.
The unknown speedster got there first.
" You're alive! Thats so crash!" He exclaimed. " Say, why is Artemis crying?"
Flash hugged him tightly. Really tight.
" I thought I lost you" he whispered.
Wally was even more confused now. He backed away from the group gathering around him.
" No offense, but who are you people?" he asked.
" You don't know anyone?" the Robin look-alike asked him
" I know him" he pointed at his Uncle " and Kaldur, Superboy, and M'Gann" he flashed what he thought was a very sexy smile at her. She didn't think so, apparently, because it just made her frown deepen " and you sort of look like Robin, only taller. Are you related to him? Because he never said he had an older brother"
" Its like he doesn't remember the last five years" the acrobats eyes lit up " That's it! He must have hit his head or something and can't remember! M'Gann, do your thing"
The Martian's eyes glowed green for a moment, then went back to normal.
" It's not there. It isn't like Bialya when the memories were just suppressed. It's as if he was pulled out of that time and dropped here"
Artemis let out a sob.
" Not to be rude or anything, but can we discuss this somewhere a little warmer?" Wally asked. " And you still didn't answer my question. Who are you people"
" Fine. We'll talk on the bioship" said the blue-bird guy.

" So let me get this straight. You are Robin in a mew outfit, you are my cousin from the future, you have an alien artifact attached to your spine, and you" he turned to Artemis " are my girlfriend?"
Artemis had stopped crying, but she wasn't exactly overjoyed for obvious reasons. She gave a short nod.
Wally let out a whistle.
" Future me is one lucky dude. How the heck did I manage that?"
Artemis didn't say anything, but she stopped sulking for long enough to let out a shadow of a smile.
A/N: Yeah, I'm not terribly proud of the "big, dramatic reveal", but the 2016 section was halfway decent. I'm not entirely sure what I'm going do next, because the events so far negate, like, half of the rest of the season.
Another thing that Mark from Orlando mentioned was the effects of the speed force. Trust, I'll explain that when it comes up.
