Klarion was inside. He frowned at the fact that he was led to a joke shop. But after learning about this "Kid Zoom" he looked high and low. There was something familiar about the kid. He snuck inside. Quietly of course.
-.-
Klarion continues to stroke Wally's head playfully.
"Pretty little runner Red Arrow frowned. If what he discovered was true, then the so-called chaos lord mine," he said greedily. Wally doesn't know how much he can keep this up. He's starting to feel hungry. Aloud noise however seemed to change things up a bit. It seemed as though it wasn't Klarion though as the hand in his hair clenched down hurting him. A growl came from him as he left Wally in the room.
Wally opened his left eye slightly. It was definitely Klarion's room. Dark, small, quaint, and chaotic. He was lying on inside of some sort of magical cage. Its ominous glow was clear with its magic. He sat up a bit and grabbed his pounding head. He swore it was like running a marathon through a brick wall. Painful. Horribly and unquestioningly painful. He was so focused on his throbbing head he didn't notice the presence of someone else enter the room.
"So you're what all the fuss is about," said a voice. Wally jumped and squeaked. His heart was beating as fast as a hummingbird's wing.
"Don't do that Roy," he said turning around. Behind him was a hero. Red Arrow. Speedy was his old name. The archer held his bow tightly. His jaw clenched but curiosity was prominent on his face.
"And you are Kid Zoom?" he asked. Wally looked up at him closer. Why did it feel like he knew him? Like he was a chum with this guy at one point? Well maybe not chums but close at least.
"I think… Y'know, I'm not sure anymore. I kind of feel like a prisoner," he said gesturing at the magical cage that enclosed around him. Arrow frowned and looked. It did say he was going to be forced by the information he had. He pulled a yellow arrow from his bag. Wally's eyes widened. He shot the arrow destroying the cage. Wally ran up to him in awe.
"Was that made by Nabu?" he asked. Arrow gave him a look.
"Doctor Fate kid," he said.
"Same guy," Wally said. The elder looked at him carefully.
"Do I know you from somewhere?" he asked. Wally opened his mouth to say no but instead thought for a second.
"That is a distinct possibility my good archer," he said throwing an arm around the taller red head. Arrow grunted but didn't bother to yell at him. He didn't know how many people could be lurking around. And the kid didn't seem to want any trouble.
"We should go," he said. Wally smiled.
"Lead the way," he said gesturing at the door. Red Arrow walked out of the room dragging the younger red head behind him. Questions bombarded in his mind as well as laughter that sounded like came from Robin and someone else. He knew Robin's laugh. Worked with him a bit. Little brother like person. Crazy ass cackle though. This guy though… He swore he knew him from somewhere.
It took a few minutes before they were outside. Once they were out they both froze when a blood curdling angry yell.
"HHUUUAAAAAAGGGGG!"
Wally looked at Arrow with fear in his eyes.
"Sorry."
"For…," he began. Next thing he knew he was in the smaller and younger boy's arms going insanely fast. They stopped in about a second in a completely new location. He landed on the ground stumbling like a drunken man.
"That," Wally said sheepishly rubbing the back of his neck. Arrow recalled reading that he was to be trained by Zoom. Zoom was like an evil version of Flash so why wouldn't this kid have speed too?
"I… I see," he said steadying himself, "I swear you're going to kill me one of these days."
"One of these days? That's if we survive after Klarion finds us," said Wally nervously, "I'm Wally."
"Roy," he said easily. Yeah. That was strange, "Tell anyone and I'll skin you alive."
Wally raised his hands defensively, "My lips are sealed Roy-boy."
"Don't ever call me that again," he said with a smirk. Wally's smile grew.
"Aw… I thought it worked so well with you," he said mockingly.
He escaped. And is now with Roy. Please review.
