Pilot (2)

"And we've arrived. Gideon, if you wouldn't mind camouflaging us as an alpine meadow, perhaps?" Rip said as the Waverider landed and the harnesses lifted. Mick groaned and grabbed his head.

"What are you complaining about now? It's not like we time-jumped" Leonard said calmly. Vyra looked over at her brother and smirked.

"I hate flying, especially in... whatever this thing is" Mick complained as Vyra walked over and stood behind him.

"Time ship bro, it's a time ship" Vyra said laughing.

"Shut up sis" Mick growled

"Aw look, they're already one big happy family" Sara mocked earning a chuckle from Leonard and a glare from Mick and Vyra.

"Where exactly are we?" Carter asked curiously.

"We're still in 1975, right?" Kendra asked as well.

"Yep, if we had time traveled Mick would be vomiting again" Vyra teased causing Mick to stick up his finger at her.

"October 1975 on the fjords of Northern Norway" Rip explained walking past the chairs and into his office.

"Sounds like a vacation" Leonard said casually.

"Which we can take as soon as the threat of Savage has been neutralized, Mr. Snart" Rip replied simply. He picked up a black book and walked back out to the group.

"That's Aldus's notebook" Carter commented

"Now he theorized that Savage might be here, and if he's right, and if we can capture Savage, then at least Professor Boardman didn't die in vain" Rip explained

"Can't we just go back and save Aldus?" Kendra asked

"He was our son" Carter added.

"Look, I'm sorry. We can't go back and change events in which we participated. Time would fold in on itself, creating a temporal vortex" Rip explained

"Which sounds way cooler than it is" Raymond commented.

"Forgetting physics for a second, shouldn't we figure out what Savage is doing in Norway?" Sara asked, leaning against the table in the middle of the room. Leonard stood opposite her while Mick and Vyra were still standing near the chairs.

"According to Gideon, there is a large meeting of terrorists and fringe groups looking to buy illegal arms" Rip explained as he pulled up the files on the computer table.

"Now that sounds like a vacation" Mick said grinning.

"Arms dealers and terrorists aren't exactly our kind of people, but they're the next best thing" Leonard said looking over at Vyra.

"Well, looks like you and your lapdog get to earn your keep" Carter commented

"I'm no one's lapdog, bird-man" Mick said simply.

"So what exactly does one wear to a black-market arms bazaar, anyway?" Kendra asked as Rip looked Vyra and nodded.

"Ladies and Gentleman if you would please follow me to The Waveriders fabrication room" Vyra said excitedly, grinning widely.

"What does a fabrication room do?" Martin asked curiously.

"It… well, it can fashion temporally-indigenous, uh, fashion" Rip explained as Vyra chuckled.

"You've got a room that makes clothing?" Jefferson asked

"Doesn't everyone?" Rip asked simply as he walked back into his office to put back the book. Then Raymond, Leonard and Mick followed Vyra and Rip out of the main room and down the hall.

"All right, first thing we need to do is work up a plan" Raymond said

"Got a lot of experience infiltrating criminal gatherings? Didn't think so. I'm calling the shots" Leonard said simply

"Actually, I'm in charge, in case any of you have forgotten" Rip said walking to front of the group were Vyra was listening with amusement.

"No, I remember. I just don't care" Leonard said simply earning a chuckle from Vyra.

"Do I need to remind any of you that I'm a Time Master? Making discrete alterations to the timeline is what I do, so we're not just gonna charge into the past like a bull into a china shop..." Rip said firming making everyone stop walking.

"Half of what you've told us about the mission turned out to be lies" Mick said

"None of you have ever encountered Vandal Savage before. I have, and I'm telling you now, you are making a big mistake" Rip said annoyed.

"Already did that when we trusted you" Raymond scoffed. Rip sighed and turned to Vyra.

"Go with them Vyra" Rip said defeated.

"Back soon, Captain" Vyra said following the boys to the fabrication room.

…..

Vyra, Sara, Mick, Rory and Martin all walked towards the massive warehouse where the terrorists were meeting.

"Looks like they're checking credentials. And we don't have any" Sara said slightly worried.

"We got this. Trust us" Mick said. Sara looked at Vyra who just shrugged in response. They watched as Leonard bumped into a man, taking his ID.

"Excuse you" Leonard said coldly before walking up to the security guard.

"IDs" The guard said firmly. He read the ID and then looked at Leonard.

"You don't look like an Amhad Ahmed Izz-Al-Din" The guard said suspiously.

"I'm Arab. On my mother's side" Leonard lied flawlessly.

"Is there a problem?" Martin said heatedly storming over to the group and security guard.

"I don't like delays. Do you know who we are? My associates and I are the operational arm of "Scimitar." The Lombardo Square bombing, 1963. Murder of Henri Tyran, Canada, 1970. Konig Airport Massacre, 1971. Bottom line? You don't want to doubt me" Martin said with a tone of superiority and authority in his voice. Vyra and Mick shared a surprised but impressed look. The security guard looked at the group once more before giving Leonard his ID back.

"You're a special kind of crazy. I like it" Mick said grabbing Martin by the shoulders as they walked into the warehouse full of weapons.

"We're in" Leonard said into his comms unit before turning back to the group.

"So why don't I get to play terrorist?" Jefferson asked through the comms unit. Carter, Kendra and he were walking along the roof a nearby building as back-up.

"This is just a kidnapping. No need for your nuclear fireworks" Leonard replied

"Savage'll be one of the buyers. Once we get eyes on, hang back. We'll boost him once this is all over" Leonard explained

"Let's split up and see if we can find Savage. Vyra and Mick will come with me. Sara, go with Stein" Leonard ordered. The group split into two groups.

"Did we do this kind of thing a lot?" Vyra asked Mick and Leonard while keeping her eyes open for Savage.

"Not really, we normally robbed banks and museums" Leonard explained smiling fondly at the memory.

"Blow up buildings and piggies" Mick said grinning. Vyra looked over to Leonard confused.

"Cops" Leonard explained and Vyra nodded, understanding.

"But you, Vyra, you used to be a hired killer before you joined me" Leonard explained and Vyra blinked at this news.

"Makes sense" Vyra muttered shrugging.

"Any sign of him?" Carter asked

"No" Leonard said sighing

"He's not here, boss" Mick said to Leonard.

"Let's get Ginger and the Professor and move out" Leonard said before a man stepped onto the stage.

"If I could have your attention. Thank you all for coming. I promise, it will be well worth your time" The man said as Savage stepped onto the stage. Sara and Martin joined Vyra, Mick and Leonard.

"Seems we were wrong about Savage. He's not one of the buyers" Martin whispered

"He's the seller" Sara added.

"This is a variable-yield nuclear warhead, capable of producing a blast equivalent to one megaton of TNT. Shall we begin our bidding at $100 million?" Savage asked. A man shot his gun into the air indicating that he wanted the warhead.

"$100 million. Do I hear $105 million?" The man next to Savage called out. Another gunshot went off.

"$110 million?" He asked and nother gunshot went off. Vyra watched as Savage held his head and looked around the room before his eyes rested on their group.

"It appears we've drawn some unwanted attention. We need to bid. Fire your gun in the air" Martin said and Mick happily obliged.

"That's $125 million" The auctioneer said

"Um, what's happening?" Sara asked confused

"It's what's not happening that is the concern" Martin said worried

"Nobody else is bidding" Vyra added.

"Sold!" The Auctioneer called out and pointed to their group.

"Congratulations, Professor. You just bought yourself a nuclear weapon" Mick said sarcastically.

"Well, well. We seem to have a new player. But you seem a bit academic. How did you get in here and who are you?" A man asked walking over to the group. Vyra stood up straight, getting on the defence.

"As of a few seconds ago, I'm a nuclear power" Martin replied simply.

"Yet I don't know you or your organization, and I know everyone" He replied.

"Wow… bit up yourself" Vyra mocked, unable to control herself. The man stepped towards Vyra.

"And what's a pretty thing like you doing in a place like this?" He asked as Vyra scoffed.

"Hey. Back off" Mick said placing a hand on the man's shoulder.

"Watch your tone" He said simply as Savage walked over to them.

"Is there some sort of problem here?" Savage asked Mick.

"Yeah, the master race here is starting to bug me" Mick said annoyed but Leonard and Vyra pulled him back a bit.

"We're just gonna get our nuclear warhead and be on our way" Leonard said

"Not without paying first" The Auctioneer said from the stage.

"Once we've validated that the warhead's operational. Personally, I find it highly unlikely that you were able to accumulate enough fissionable material in this era to fashion a workable nuclear device" Martin said proudly. Vyra let out a low growl at how stupid Martin was. Leonard looked at Vyra confused.

"This era?" Savage asked smirking and Leonard understood why Vyra had growled.

"Figure of speech" Martin replied.

"I got a feeling you guys might want to get those helmets of yours on' Jefferson said to Carter and Kendra on the roof.

"Change of plans. I'll provide a 25% discount to the organization which brings me the heads of these men" Savage said, stepping onto the stage.

"Can I burn some stuff now?" Mick asked Leonard excitedly.

"I wish you would" Leonard growled before they both turned around and started shooting people and explosive material. Sara pulled out her long staff and started knocking out the men that attacked her. Raymond, who was in Martin's pocket the entire time, came out and started attacking men as well. Carter and Kendra flew into the room, trying to find Savage. Meanwhile Vyra had pulled out her daggers and was teleporting around, slicing people's throats and yanked the guns out of terrorist's hands with her tail. Savage stood on the stage watching with great interest until his eyes rested on Vyra.

"76278" Savage said. Time froze as Vyra turned towards Savage in shock. She teleported directly in front of him.

"How do you know me?" Vyra asked confused, her dagger's dripping blood as her hands hung by her sides.

"Vyra!" Leonard shouted in concern but Vyra ignored them. Her entire focus was on Savage.

"I'm the man who brought you back from the dead" Savage revealed. Vyra was frozen in shock by this news. The noise around her went silent.

-Flashback-

Vyra woke up to two men talking not far from her.

"Was it successful?" A man said, Vyra shifted her head ever so slightly and opened her eyes to reveal Savage talking to another man. He had black hair and grey eyes; the doctor who ran tests and experiments on her for the first 6 months of her new life.

"Yes. She is alive once more although I am unaware of what side effects she has. I will need to keep her in the cell until then, along with the collar." The doc said and Savage nodded.

"Do with her what you want. I have no need of her. She was merely a tool, a test dummy. When you have finished learning everything you can from her, kill her" Savage said before walking out of the room without so much as a glance at Vyra.

Vyra screamed in pain as that memory came back to her and collapsed to her knees. She looked up at an amused Savage. Vyra could hear Leonard and Mick calling out to her but she continued to ignore them and disappeared into a puff of black smoke.
