Hey guys this is going to be my last update for a while, finals are coming up so I have to study, study, study. So don't expect anything from me on any of my stories until December 21, when I will resume updating my stories (unless the world ends) Also this fic is to almost 300 reviews (you guys are amazing!) so it would be so fantastic to reach 300 (I will be so happy I might gift the 300th reviewer with a oneshot (within reason and only if you're signed in) Please make my dream happen it's been a hard week and it would be great for something like this to happen.
I own nothing.
"Tell me everything!" the archer hissed at the quivering time villain. "NOW!"
William Tockman just about shit his pants, he couldn't take much more of this. The irate blond was nearing homicidal and he really didn't want to die today, so in an act of self-preservation he sang like a bird….
Artemis pinned him to the wall with her glare as he proceeded to tell her each and every one of his dirty little secrets. Boy this was going to be a long day….
"Wally, what the hell did you do?" Barry asked, regretting ever listening to his nephew, no matter how 'mature and grown up' he was Wally would still always be Wally.
The other scarlet speedster was going to respond but he was cut off by Batman's growl as the dark knight himself came storming out of his Bat plane (A/N his fast plane that could totally beat superman in a race *just ignore my HMB reference and read on I had to put it in there*) and towards the speedsters waiting in front of the cave. Behind him were the other angry heroes that had it out for a speedster too.
"Shit, We're screwed!" Bart said wide eyed, "Well I'm out!" he announced as he tried to flee, but found that his feet could not get any traction.
"Not so fast…" Wally warned as he and Barry set KF back down on the ground.
"And watch your language." Barry gave his future grandson a stern look.
Irey was fighting the urge to laugh, "Man up butt face, after all you have to save your energy for when GL and the Hawks beat the crap out of you."
Bart stuck he tongue out at his cousin and she gave him a wicked smirk.
Batman was finally to them (remember time goes slowly for speedsters) and boy he was pissed…
"Of all the stupid, idiotic, unprofessional things…" Bruce growled and took a deep breath (he was trying not to let his blood pressure go too high) "…You could of done to gain our attention you do… THIS!" he shouted, the bat was out of the bag now.
"You could've just called." Hal hissed. The lantern had 5 minutes of sleep in the past 72 hours; he was going to murder that little speedster kid whoever he was. The pilot was so sleep deprived he had yet to notice the second flash and the little girl. The only thing that seemed different to him was that KF might have dyed his hair.
"But the communications were down and the Zeta tube were barely functioning, another vortex came and we had to tell you somehow." Wally defended.
"You all run around the country like complete buffoons to gain our attention for an Emergency. Do you even have a brain? What kind of idiot would goof around in a situation like this!" Batman fumed.
"We had it fully under control and we still do. We just thought you should know..." Wally pointed out indignantly.
At this point Hal was starting to get confused, Flash sounded different, he looked different to. Maybe he was an imposter. The delusional sleep deprived lantern powered up his ring and flew full speed at the Imposter Flash that was definitely not his best friend, Barry.
"WHO ARE YOU AND WHERE'S FLASH!" Hal shouted not seeing the current scarlet speedster standing behind him. He was about to intervene but after a few hand gestures from Bart and Irey he decided to just go with it, they needed to lighten up the mood. Wally caught their drift and decided to plat along too.
Batman face palmed, Superman was explaining the long and complicated situation to the Hawks and Ollie was about to die of laughter.
"What do you mean? I'm right here." Wally answered.
"NO YOU'RE NOT! WHO ARE YOU IMPOSTER!"
"I'm the Flash." Wally quipped, "The Goddamn fastest man alive." He added. Over Hal's shoulder Barry gave him a look for his potty mouth, but the future speedster just couldn't help himself sometimes.
"NO YOU'RE NOT!" GL snarled. He was growing impatient so he decided to quit the useless small talk and get to the point. In one swift move he yanked the cowel off of the future speedster and was met face to face with a redhaired stranger.
"What the…WHO THE HELL ARE YOU!" GL interrogated. "What did you do with the real Flash?"
"What do you mean Hal? I'm right here." Barry joined in.
Hal stood up (as did Wally) and Looked at Barry and then at Wally and then at Barry again.
"Son of a…" The pilot was left speechless he didn't know what to think, maybe he was seeing things…"There's two Flashes!"
"No shit Sherlock, but count again..." Bart got another 'look' from Barry.
Hal's face melted into a look of pure horror as he came face to face with another speedster. GA's heart nearly stopped he was laughing so hard.
"Three speedsters?" Hal was utterly confused.
"How 'bout you count again, Einstien…" A high pitched female voice chimed in and if it was possible Hal's eye's got even wider as he turned to the little red head with pigtails. A female speedster…
Slowly the lantern backed away, he prayed he was hallucinating. "Who-who are you people?" the lantern of sector 2814 questioned, he was getting a headache.
"Flash." Both Barry and Wally said at the same time. (Wally had put his cowel back on so he looked almost identical to his old mentor.)
"Kid Flash"
"Impulse."
Hal pointed his ring at the speedsters. At this time the Hawks had returned to their city and Superman went inside with Batsy to investigate. Ollie was still rolling on the ground laughing his ass off.
"I mean it! WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE?"
Barry finally pulled off his cowl and walked up to his friend. "It's a long story Hal. I'll explain when we get inside."
Hal gave up and followed his friend inside the cave, his head hurt too much to think…
Back in the interrogation room…
"…And I ate glue until I was 15, I secretly am in love with Miley Cyrus, My mother gave me a purple thong for my birthday and I'm a brony…" Clock King confessed.
While Artemis found some of these confessions absolutely hilarious she kept on her poker face. The archer was growing impatient; she had yet to gain the information she needed.
Swiftly she got up from her seat and grabbed the man by the collar. He was already sweating like a dog and almost positive he had soiled himself, but surprisingly he didn't faint as she shoved him against the wall.
"Clock face, I'm going to ask this once. Who sent you?" she said in a tone so dark it would send shivers down Batman's spine.
"I-I don't know! This wasn't my idea! I was just in charge of the device."
"Then who's in charge and where is the fucking device." Artemis was at the end of her rope; she was boiling with impatience and fury.
"It was the Condiment King I swear! This was all his stupid Idea in the first place! Ask him, He'll know! And the machine is gone." The quivering man shouted with so much fear.
Without another word Artemis stormed out of the Interrogation room to the one down the hall.
On her way there she passed the posy of Speedsters escorting the extremely confused lantern to the kitchen so they could clean out the fridge and explain the whole fiasco to poor Hal.
"Hi honey." Wally greeted the archer as she stormed pass. He rage was almost palpable in the air.
"Not now Baywatch." She growled.
"I bet you five buck's she's going to kill some one." Bart whispered to Irey.
"Like you?" Irey whispered back with her ever so famous smirk on her face that left Bart at a loss for words in anger and indignance.
Hal suddenly stopped and looked at the imposter speedster and the pissed archer (who was already down the hall) and then it all fell into place.
"Oh. My. God." Hal was stunned.
Wally waved his hand in front of the lantern's face; Hal was completely out of it.
"Oa to lantern, Wake up Hal."
"You're-you're Wally." The pilot stammered.
"The one and only." Barry rolled his eyes at his nephew's antics.
"But how…?" The lantern wondered.
"It's a long story that's best explained over coffee." Barry explained.
"I could really use some coffee…" Hal muttered.

The door in Condiment King's interrogation room thundered open and an impatient blonde stood in its wake.
She didn't spend more than five minutes in there. After a pitiful cry for one's mother and some more ridiculous confessions later Artemis stomped out of the room and into another.
This time she was going to get the answer, or else…
The trickster laughed as she came into the room.
"Ahh it looks like the cowards have snitched." He mused.
"WHO SENT YOU!" The archer shouted.
"Someone's got her family's temper…"
Artemis's eyes widened, she should have known…
"What did you say?" she hissed hoping her suspicions wouldn't be confirmed.
"Well you know the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, especially a family tree…"
