Barry slowly walked into the Labs for the first time in two months. He breathed in, it still smelled like the experiments Dr. Wells would use to try to make him faster. He chuckled a bit, it was good to be back.

He felt two arms wrap around him, he smiled. "Hey Iris" he greeted, Iris was clenching his chest tightly. "I was so worried about you. Where the hell where you!?" she exclaimed. Joe, Cisco, and Caitlin joined the two.

"Yeah Bar" Joe chipped in, "Yeah, Where were you?" Caitlin added, Cisco just nodded. Barry sighed, that was a difficult story.

"Well, better do this now" Barry thought aloud. Barry sat in a chair, Joe leaned against a wall, and the rest sat in circle around him. Barry nodded, "Well... After I got my ass kicked twice... I realized that I needed to get better. There was something I was doing wrong, I wasn't sure what, but for some reason Zoom was extremely faster." He explained

"So I left, I probably should have told you guys, but I knew you would convince me to stay" he eyed Caitlin "But I didn't need to stay, I needed to get better" he explained.

"You still haven't told where you went, just what you thought you needed to do" Iris pointed out. Barry sighed and scratched the back of his head, "Okay, okay. The truth is... I didn't leave by myself" he admitted "I was way too banged up, I could hardly move, much less run at super speeds" he explained

"I talked to Bruce..."

Two Months Ago

Joe held his hand on an unconscious Barry, "It's gonna be okay Bar... It's gonna be okay" he muttered. There was a few slams at the door, Joe remembered what Bruce had told him, don't open the door unless "5-27-39! 5-27-39!" a voice behind the door screamed.

Joe leapt from his chair and opened the door. The door swung open, Nightwing, Batman, Caitlin, Iris, and Cisco all charged inside.

There was a bunch of commotion, "Who are you?!" "Where's Barry?!" "Why are we here?!" Everyone was in panic, "Everyone! Be quiet!" Bruce ordered, they all quieted down. Nightwing smirked and ran a hand through his hair "Let me handle this one... No offense, but you're not really a people person" he told Batman, the Bat reluctantly nodded.

Nightwing removed his mask, which revealed his crystal blue eyes. Nightwing ran his hand though his hair again, a habit that him and Barry shared, "Okay listen up, My name is Dick Grayson. I'm Bruce's former parter" he explained.

"Wait... You were Robin?" Cisco interrupted, Dick sighed and nodded "Unfortunately..." He muttered. Cisco broke out into giggles "You were the one that used to have no pants!" He exclaimed. Dick groaned "Yes, I was... Now can we move onto the condition of your friend over here.

Cisco held up his hands in surrender "Do your thing Peter Pan" he retorted. Dick rolled his eyes "Anyway, Barry is in critical condition. If Bruce and Joe hadn't been there when they were... Lets just say we might have needed a new speedster..." He muttered the last part.

"Barry had the idea that he needed to take on Zoom by himself, Zoom beat him handily... And rather easily." Dick looked back at Bruce, Bruce sighed and nodded. Nightwing ran a hand though his hair "I'm sorry to do this... But until Barry can make better decisions... We will be revoking his offer to join the League" he explained.

"That's ridiculous!" Cisco exclaimed, "Barry can run up to 1500 miles per hour! All you've got is a fancy belt and some guy who can shoot arrows!" He yelled. Bruce glared at Cisco "He can't run fast if he's dead" Bruce said in a monotone voice.

The entire group was taken back by his words, because they made sense. This is the second time Barry has nearly gotten killed by the Dark Speedster. Plain and simple, Zoom was better than the Flash and the sooner they all realized it, the better.

The door swung open, Oliver and Thea walked in the door, letting a cold gust of wind blow in with them. Oliver pulled off his hood, as did Thea. Bruce nodded at Oliver, "It's clear, I don't Zoom is anywhere in the city" he explained

Thea smiled at Dick as she walked up to him "Hey Dickie Bird, long time no see" she greeted, Dick smiled and rolled his eyes "When are you gonna stop calling me that?" He asked, "When we both get old, then I'll just call you... Grayson" she joked. Dick snickered a bit, "I think I might like that" he retorted.

Bruce cleared his throat loudly "Are you two done?" he asked, slightly annoyed. They both nodded "Sorry, sir" they both said, in sync. Bruce motioned for the two to come closer. Bruce turned towards Caitlin and the rest of them.

"We must discuss something. Stay here." He ordered. Bruce, Dick, Oliver, and Thea walked into the room, where Barry laid unconscious.

"Do you have it?" Bruce asked, Oliver nodded. He pulled a small plant out of his pocket and handed it to Bruce. Bruce nodded "Thank you" he thanked and then walked over to Barry, he pulled a bit off of the plant and lead it into Barry's mouth.

Barry's eyes shot open, he coughed furiously. Dick handed him water, he drank it all within seconds. Barry nodded "T-t-thanks" he stuttered. Oliver looked confused, "He might have a temporary stutter due to post traumatic stress" he explained

"Barry we have to discuss something" Oliver stated, Barry nodded. "Barry, we have some news to brake to you... You are not better than Zoom, you're not even equal to Zoom" Bruce told him, "But... That can change. I've another offer for you. Come with me and Dick, we will take you to Gotham we will train you there, I will have the best doctor I've ever known, he will get you in better shape than you began with. We will train you to become smarter, stronger, and most importantly faster."

"But Barry, there is one condition, you have to want to become better, you have to want to beat Zoom, you have to want to save your city" Bruce told him. Bruce paused for only a moment "So Barry, what is it... Do you want to save your city?"

Barry nodded "I'll d-do it" he said confidently "W-w-whatever it t-takes"

A/N: Next chapter will be mostly Barry going to Gotham and training and getting back to full health. Thanks for reading, Please Review!
