AN: I'm not trying to make excuses, but my roommates were REALLY loud today and I could not focus on writing. More tomorrow, promise.

Really quickly, I mention some places in Central that will probable confuse you. If you go to this website: www. hyperborea (.org) / flash/central-city, (ignore all the spaces, it was the only way stupid fanfiction would let me put it in) you can see a map of Central City! Also, some asked why Hal wasn't called about Wally. In one of the chapters, John says he's on a mission for the Green Lantern Corps. Don't worry, he'll find out eventually. :)

DISCLAIMER: I don't own the Justice League.

...

After several minutes of Wally's memories shifting on the screen, they solidified to show Wally in a large college lecture hall. He was listening to the professor talk when his phone buzzed in his pocket. Wally saw that it was his uncle and frowned.

The phone stopped buzzing by the time Wally had taken his things and quietly walked out of the room to the empty hallway.

Wally quickly called Barry back and waited for him to answer.

"Wally," Barry's voice came through the speaker. "Iris is missing."

"What?" Wally's eyes widened.

Barry sounded frantic. "She's missing. I can't find her anywhere. I've checked all the normal places. I've asked friends, neighbors, and coworkers, and no one knows where she is."

"How long has she been missing?" Wally asked in a serious tone.

"Her coworker saw her leaving the station about four hours ago. I've searched along all the routes between there and home. There's been nothing."

"Have you started combing the city?" Wally asked.

"I was just about to," answered Barry. "I was hoping you could help me."

"Of course! She's Iris!" answered Wally. "Look, why don't I start in University Town since I'm already here? Then I'll move on to Westminster, circle back around and take the north side of Central above the railroad while you scout the south and east sectors of the city. If we find anything, we'll call the other. If we don't, we'll meet up by the old rail system and figure out what to do from there."

"Yeah. Okay. That sounds good," sighed Barry. It was obvious that he was freaking out and relieved to have someone else take charge.

The Justice League saw Wally hang up before his memories became blurry as they skipped through the next few hours.

Nightwing stood up from where he was sitting in Wally's med room and started pacing.

"Dick," Roy said quietly. "You can't do anything."

Dick sighed. "I just hate this. Hearing about it was bad enough, but now we're going to watch."

"You don't have to watch," said Jason angrily.

"What are you all talking about?" asked Shayera with her face scrunched up in worry. "What's going to happen?"

The three boys were quiet before Roy answered. "I'm guessing Wally never mentioned Iris or Barry?"

"No," said John. "He did mention Grammy Joan, but no one else."

Roy looked the Green Lantern in the eye. "This is why," Roy said quietly as he nodded his head back to the monitor.

The morphing images had settled and Kid Flash was on a mount overlooking a suburb on one side and a forest on the other. It was late evening and the road he was on had a turn off where people could park to take in the scenic view. There was one car there: a red 4-door Honda that Kid Flash stared at dumbstruck. He rushed over to it and pulled open the unlocked door. His eyes swept over the interior quickly, and then he stared all around his surroundings and cupped his hands to his mouth.

"IRIS! IRIS WEST-ALLEN!" Kid Flash waited for an answer that didn't come. He pulled out his communicator and called Barry.

"Flash, get over to the old forest road by the national park; I found something."

Flash was there almost before KF hung up.

"Iris," Flash said when he saw the car. He looked at Kid Flash. "We'll search the area in a grid formation." KF nodded. The images once more blurred for a second before both speedsters once again stood by the car.

"Uncle Barry," said Wally. "We'll find her."

Barry looked back at the car. "I need to be able to search for evidence."

KF nodded. "I'll call this in to the police and tell them I was just out for a run when I found her car. They'll contact you, and Barry Allen will be able to do all he needs to."

The scene dissolved into a collage of color and sound. The watching heroes could tell they all revolved around Wally and Barry looking for Iris. They also saw a glimpse of Barry at home. He was not taking the disappearance of his wife well, but then, who would?

"We'll find her," Wally said numerous times.

Finally, another memory formed on the monitors. Kid Flash was running in downtown Central when his communicator sounded.

"Kid!" shouted Barry's voice. "Get over to the old Rail System! Now!"

Kid Flash didn't waste a second in running over to the east area just out of Central. As he ran he saw Flash running after something and caught up to run beside him.

"Who is that?" KF asked as he could now see that there was another speedster.

"Don't know," Flash said back as they ran, "but he knows where Iris is."

The unknown speedster came to a stop, forcing Flash and Kid Flash to stop as well to keep some distance between them.

"Well, well," said the man dressed in a yellow version of the Flash costume with red accents. "Look what we have here. Wally, it's so good to see you again."

Flash's and Wally's eyes widened beneath their masks.

"Who are you?" demanded Flash.

"The name's Zoom, Professor Zoom," he said.

KF spoke up angrily. "What have you done to Iris?"

Zoom sneered. "The same thing I'm going to do to you."

Zoom charged at both speedsters, forcing them to dodge out of the way. Then the heroes gave chase to Zoom.

He was fast. Really fast. He threw punches at both Wally and Barry which they blocked and reciprocated. If Wally's mind hadn't slowed down the memories, the members of the Justice league would have only seen a constant blur on the screens.

Then Zoom grabbed Flash and started running with him. Kid Flash trailed behind, doing his best to keep up with them. Then Zoom and Flash started sparking with electricity and Zoom tugged on Barry and slightly vibrated his hands through his chest for a moment, and Flash screamed in pain and Kid's face turned to a look of fear and he was running, trying to catch up to them and he held out his hand as though he could reach them and then…Flash was gone.

"No!" Kid sped past Zoom who had stopped in his tracks. He ran back and stood several paces away from the yellow-clad man. They were back in Central and the place where Iris's car was found could be seen in the distance. Zoom was bent double, his hands on his knees staring at the ground. A low sound could be heard coming from him. As Kid Flash watched, Zoom stood up straight and threw his head back, laughing.

"What did you do?" Kid asked wide-eyed. "What did you do to him?!"

Zoom stopped laughing to smile at Kid. "He's gone." Zoom laughed again and then he started vibrating at an incredible speed until he took a few steps and disappeared in a golden light.

Kid Flash stood alone in the empty field of grass.

"No," he whispered. "I don't believe you." Wally ran at a slow – for a speedster – pace in each direction.

"FLASH!" He would wait and then run another way. "FLAAASH!"

He found himself in the middle of that field. Water was starting to build up his eyes as he took shallow gasping breathes. "FLAAASH! UNCLE BARRY! UNCLE BARRYYYY!" Wally dashed around in a circle and spun in every direction.

"D-Dad," Wally choked. "DAAAD! DAAAD!"

Wally ran his hands through his hair and grabbed the back of his neck as the tears finally spilled over. "No."

He collapsed on his knees and punched the ground. "NO. NO. NO. NO." The anger left him quickly though, and he knelt on all fours as he cried, deep sobs ripping from his throat, the kind of sobs that are made only when one has known true anguish; sobs that Wally West should have been too young to make. His back trembled as he wept, tears rolling down his cheeks, his head in his hands.

The members of the league now knew why Flash never mentioned anyone in his family or anything about his past. Some had a lump in their throat and tears in their eyes, some were crying outright with Wally, and one wanted nothing more than to allow himself to show that pain.

But for all their different displays, the various leaguers bowed their heads as one and mourned the man they had never met, but they all knew.

...

AN: What did you think?
