The two heroes were completely silent as Lantern made his way towards Gotham. Neither one wanting to talk about what had happened, " You can let me off here. " Batman informed John as they flew over a dark rooftop; John nodded and lowered himself towards the indicated spot. Batman stepped out of the orb and nodded his thanks to his comrade before pulling out a cable launcher, " Wait! " Batman turned back around,
" What? "
" Do you want some help? " Lantern offered, " No. " He swung off the roof leaving Lantern standing there, with an angry look on his face.
" Place him on bed 3, " J'onn muttered, before moving back towards the many medicine bottles that were arranged neatly on a silver shelf. Superman nodded and gently placed Flash on the soft mattress, covering him with another blanket. He stepped back and Hawkgirl moved forward, she began inserting an IV into Flash's arm, muttering an apology when she heard a hiss of pain from the younger man. Diana joined J'onn in his search for the correct bottle of medicine, " How do you know what to give him? " she asked him quietly,
" I don't, for now I want to have a sedative ready, in case of any problems. " he moved towards another shelf. Hawkgirl and Superman had both moved next to Flash, both watching the abnormally slow pulse that was snaking across a screen. Diana sighed and made a move to join them when a loud scream of pain echoed in the room. Flash's face was contorted with an agony only he could feel, his shaking became faster and he let out another pain-filled moan. Superman placed his hands on his teammates shoulders to prevent him from sitting up. Suddenly Flash calmed down, letting out a small whimper he fell back into a state of unconscious, J'onn stepped back, pulling out the needle from Flash's arm. " That won't last long. " he informed them while refilling the empty container. " What happened? " Hawkgirl questioned, her voice sounding shaken,
" I don't know, it must be an effect that the poison creates, but we can't be certain until Batman calls us with his results. " Superman sighed, he felt so useless for not being able to do anything to help his friend, " Superman? Perhaps you should get some rest…there is nothing we can do right now. " Diana nodded her agreement and exited the room, unable to see Flash like that any longer, Superman on her heels after J'onn promised to call him once Wally awoke. Diana was walking towards her room at a fast pace and with his superhuman hearing Clark could hear her sniffling. Superman entered the entertainment room and took a seat on the large, squashy couch. ' Maybe I will get some rest…' he leaned back and closed his eyes FlashbackDream……..
" Flash?? " a voice echoed in the hallow hallway, the man was walking down,
" What are you doing? " A sharp voice demanded, " I'm looking for Flash…you haven't seen him anywhere, have you? " The voice sighed, like a mother trying to convince her child that the monster under his bed wasn't real, " He's gone. " the man took a step back, his red cape fluttering behind him,
" What do you mean, gone? " he questioned the other man, who was wearing all black,
" What are you talking about, Bruce? " he rephrased his question, his voice now carrying a concerned tone, " Clark…………don't you remember? "
" Look… stop being mysterious where is Flash? " Bruce sighed and pulled back his facemask, revealing his eyes; both were cold and had a far away look to them.
" Flash is…he's…dead. " Clark wasn't prepared for this answer, he took a step back and brought a hand up to his face, " When…….how….why…no…your wrong!! " he didn't care that his voice shook, Batman had no right to lie to him like this.
" Clark…I carried his body back to the Javelin, we had the service, we watched the casket go into the ground…what's the matter with you? "
" How—" " Luthor, or at least we know its him…we haven't been able to track anything back to him, he cleaned up after himself really well. " Clark felt his anger boiling
" He didn't want anything traced back to him before the election. "
" Why Flash? " Bruce continued staring at his friend, bewilder by his sudden strange behavior, " During his last mission, Flash found a disk that held highly sensitive information about Luthor's past crimes…enough to put him away for good. However Flash didn't realize what it meant so he didn't mention it to us. Luthor destroyed the disk and—" he broke off, " I have to get back to Gotham. " he walked away, tugging his mask back down. Clark slid to the floor; ' It can't be…no…I just saw him…in the medi-bay…how could he have been…' 'EVERYTHING HE DOES FROM NOW ON IS ALL YOUR FAULT!! ' Where did that voice come from?? It sounded like his own, what did it mean. An image flashed in his mind, himself standing next to Lex who had a dangerous looking gun in his hands. End FlashbackDream… Superman sat up quickly, panting hard, he flew of the couch and headed towards the infirmary. Stopping in front of the window he gazed in, there was Flash, sleeping in a bed…not in a casket. He shook his head, what did that dream mean…' everything he does from now on is your fault!! ' Superman let out a gasp…Lex…he couldn't believe it, ' could he have been involved? '
