Wally West awoke to the sound of quiet chattering. He groaned as his body ached and the talking went quiet.

"You okay there?" he opened his eyes and could just make out the blurry image of Diana.

"Yeah." He said, slowly sitting up with the help of Clark. Half way up however he stopped and frowned, trying to search his memories.

"What happened?" he asked.

"How much do you remember?" J'ohn asked, pulled a pillow up and laying Wally against it.

"I remember…" he glanced across from his bed and saw Phoenix, he then glanced down. "Up until the fight. I remember stabbing Dyren." He whispered. "It felt like I was back at the Coliseum."

"But you're not." Shayera said, sitting on the edge of his bed.

"I remember his sword coming for me, and then a flash of white…and…" he breathed the last word. "Barry."

"You remember him?" Bruce asked.

"Faintly, like a dream." He was no longed talking to them. "He took me, and showed me each portal, that led…" his head snapped up. "To you all." He finished, eyes shinning.

"You saved our souls as we died." Diana said, holding his hand.

"Then what?" he asked.

"We don't know." Clark said, sitting in the chair beside him. "We truly came round when we stepped out of the portal, but something told us to fight.

"Barry." Wally nodded. "I faintly remember him. Telling me about the fight."

"What did he say?" Shayera asked, leaning forward. Wally just shrugged.

"That I would understand in time." He said.

"We should leave you to rest, you can leave your bed in a few days." Bruce ordered, pulling on his mask and leading everyone out of the room.

"We'll be back later." John said, patting his shoulder and closed the door.

"Speed Force." Wally whispered.

"Pardon?" John paused, the door half closed.

"Nothing." Wally smiled, lying back down. "Just thinking."

"Well stop thinking, and sleep." He laughed, clicking the door shut.

Wally lay under the covers and thought back on what he could remember, he could remember the last fight, dressed in gold. But he felt like Barry was there watching his back, like he used to when he had been the Flash, and Wally had been Kid Flash.

However, his thought came back to Speed Force and finally drifting off, he knew one day he would have speed force, but not just yet.

By the afternoon of the next day he had bargained his way out of bed saying he had to find Phoenix and Gabriel's brothers and sisters. John and Shayera had both promised they would go with him.

They had allowed Wally to go to his room to change and there he found Gabriel's coat, still lying on his bed. Picking it up he found John and Shayera and the three teleported back down to the block of flats.

Just as they reached the right floor they found Amanda waiting at the stairs for them.

"I saw you coming." She said, hugging Wally.

"I know." Wally said, leading the way into Phoenix's flat. "I'm sorry again." He said, sitting her down and waited till her brothers and sister had arrived. "To all of you. I wish it had been me."

"Don't." One of the boys said.

"We know it wasn't your fault." Another one added.

"I saw it all." Amanda said.

"And a lot more I bet." Wally smiled sadly.

"All that will be." She whispered.

"Then you know where you're going, and that I'll always drop by." He turned especially to Amanda. "And that one day, I'll take you all to the Watch Tower and we'll train your powers." He said.

"You should go, before they arrive." Amanda told him, pointing out the window to Social Services.

They all hugged Wally and just as they were about to leave he turned back to Amanda. "Your not really Gabriel's sister, are you?"

Amanda shook her head with a smile. "You have her eyes, and the family sight. I'll see you around." And then they were gone.

Wally watched from around the corner as they children were taken to the van and driven off to the Orphanage.

"When do you think Phoenix will wake up?" he asked.

"Could be anytime, could be never." Shayera said, one hand on his shoulder.

"Not exactly the greatest of victories." He said, just as they were beamed back.

"We won." John said.

"But always at a price." Wally whispered, walking back to his room. He slung off Gabriel's coat and hung it up beside his costume.

"I can't keep living in the past." He said to it. "I have to move on, and keep moving, because just standing still kills me." He said. "I'll never forget you, or your family. And never your daughter." He fingered the sleeves of the coat. "I hope we meet again during Speed force."

He put on his Flash costume went to the door. "I'm watching over them." He promised and then turned and left, ready to carry on his life.

Life was never all ups, it had to have it's downs, but if you could brush them off and carry on with a new meaning of life at your side, then you've learned to live. And you have carried on.

The door closed behind him, but he could feel the spirit there, smiling at him and he could feel the pressure of his Uncle Barry and everyone else who he had lost. He knew one day he would see them, but until then? He would just trust that they would wait and help him at his side, while he lived for them.

The End
