Snart, smiling in his parka and cold glasses, and Rory, waving his heat gun like a mad man, climbed down a staircase from the ship.

"Like our new...pirate ship, Flash?" Snart asked.

"That's a weird spaceship, for sure. But why are you guys still being criminals after all that prison time?" Barry asked.

"Oh, Flash, you can't expect us to change," Snart laughed. It was then that Sara exited S.T.A.R. Labs. "Hot friend you have there,"

Sara blushed, but asked Barry, "Do you know this guy?"

"Unfortunately, yes," Barry replied. "I don't have authority to arrest him, so I may call Joe, which is sad, because I kinda like Snart,"

"You know I can hear you, right, Flash?" Snart grinned wickedly.

"So what are you, some sort of criminal?" Sara asked Snart.

"Yep, on the run from prison and everything," Snart smiled. "Of course, you can thank the Weather Wizard for that...some lady sonic screamed him all the way to where we were."

"So you guys had just gone on the run when my sister's evil doppelganger came to look for you? That's crazy," Sara said.

"Come aboard," Snart said, quickly picking Sara up.

"No, stop!" Barry yelled, terrified. Snart blasted him with the cold gun.

"Let's see what Blondie knows," Rory said.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Barry? Barry, are you okay?" Iris asked. She, Caitlin, Cisco, and Joe were gathered around Barry, who was lying in the medbay.

"They took Sara...Captain Cold and Heatwave...couldn't stop them…" Barry groaned.

"That's not good," Caitlin said.

"Where did everyone else go?" Barry asked.

"Oh, well, Ray, Carter, Stein, Jax, and Kendra went back to Star City with Team Arrow," Caitlin explained. "Laurel was devastated about Sara, but I said we had it covered."

"So, Sara is with Snart and Rory who knows where, and you're saying we should do everything normally?" Barry asked.

"No, not at all. In fact, I said that so we could locate Sara ourselves," Caitlin replied.

Cisco typed in the GPS. "Nothing,"

"It was a spaceship! Maybe they are in the skies!" Barry realized.

"Well, that's even harder," Cisco sighed. "I don't think the GPS is able to track skybound criminals in a futuristic vessel,"

"I think Team Arrow and its 6 extras should come back here for a while. I mean, Oliver and Felicity seem to be going off the deep end, and Laurel's reputation has been ruined. Roy should come as well, since he faked his death, no need to be in Star City. John now has dark matter, that's dangerous, even if he does need to pay his wife and daughter a visit. And Thea...well, I don't really know what she's up to. But they should all come here," Barry explained.

Cisco tensed up a bit. "I guess we can have them all over. But Barry, you've been unconscious for 3 days."

"3 days?" Barry gasped. "Is Black Siren still tied up? What happened to Kendra, Carter, Ray, Sara, Jax, and Stein? Where's Iris? Who knows what could have happened to Sara by now?"
"Barry, calm down," Cisco said.

"Iris is looking up stuff on her brother. Kendra moved to Oliver's old nightclub and has adopted a completely new identity. So has Carter. Roy is currently hiding in the Team Arrow bunker. Ray officially declared himself alive and wishes to run for Mayor of Star City. Stein is now in charge of Palmer Tech, as Felicity sold it to him. Laurel gave up law. Jax got hired by A.R.G.U.S.," Caitlin explained.

"It's almost like I missed a whole season…" Barry said, shocked..

"I'm just kidding, Barry, you didn't miss that much," Caitlin admitted. "Jax just asked to join A.R.G.U.S., not sure if Lyla will let him. And while Felicity did put Palmer Tech for sale, Stein hasn't bought it "yet", as he says. Nothing can happen that fast..."

"That wasn't actually that funny," Barry sighed. "Well, Patty will be worried sick…"

"Now is not the time to worry about your girlfriend, now is the time to save Sara!" Cisco exclaimed.

"Well, get on it then, Cisco," Joe said.

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Sara awoke with surprise in a dimly-lit, somewhat smelly room. It was full of storage boxes. In one of the boxes, there was a photo of a woman and a young boy. Sara observed the background, noticing a futuristic aesthetic in terms of the buildings. There was a bearded man off to the side. Sara tried to speak, but her mouth was gagged. She had been sedated by the criminals, which was why she hadn't been able to fight back.

"Need help?" a man's voice asked from out of nowhere. Sara jumped back.

"Who are you?" Sara tried to ask.

"Ah, yes, who am I," The man said. He quickly undid Sara's gag, and Sara saw his face in full. It was the man from the photograph. "My name is Rip Hunter,"

"Uh, is this your family, Mr. Hunter?" Sara asked, showing him the picture.

"They were. Immortal tyrant named Vandal Savage killed them…" Rip said, saddened.

"Vandal Savage? My friends fought him a few days ago! How do you know him?" Sara interrogated. Was this Rip Hunter her ticket to escape?

"Let's start from the beginning. I'm a time-traveler from the year 2166," Rip said.

"Do you mean to tell me there's such a thing as time-travel?" Sara asked.

"Of course. You've been resurrected and a particle accelerator gave many people special abilities. Where I'm from, you are a Legend, Sara Lance." Rip explained.

This caused Sara to laugh. "I understand you're definitely from the future, but how can I possibly be a Legend? My sister Laurel would be more ewww to that…"

"Laurel who?" Rip asked.

"You're kidding, right?" Sara asked. When Rip's face didn't change, Sara grinned. "Who else do I know is a Legend?"

"Your friend, Ray…"

"We just met! Friends in the future I suppose…"

"That's right. And your friends, Mick Rory and Leonard Snart."

"They're criminals who kidnapped me!"

"In the future, you will find them quite redeemable."

"Then where did they get this ship, and why did they kidnap us?"

"This is how we time-travelers protect the timeline. Hence why time always seems fine. They call us Time Masters."

"Were your wife and son part of these "Time Masters"?"

"My wife, yes. But Time Masters aren't supposed to have kids, so Savage killed my wife and son. He had become the world dictator."

"But we killed him!"

"I am afraid you did not. He was simply broken into smithereens. Because he was not killed by the genuine Kendra Saunders or Carter Hall, he will reform. It will take many years, of course, but we can get him in the past. Only they can kill him, due to Thanagarian meteorites that left them reincarnating and him immortal unless killed by them."

"So you need Kendra and Carter to kill Savage? Is that the purpose of this mission, to stop Savage? Is that how we become Legends, me, Ray, Snart, Heat Wave?"

"Jefferson Jackson and Martin Stein as well. Together we will fix anomalies in the timeline. Their Firestorm power is needed."

"I'm afraid they can't do that anymore. My sister's evil doppelganger from another universe stole some other villainous meta's powers and transferred them to my friends John Diggle and Felicity Smoak,"

"Oh dear, this isn't good." Rip quickly jotted down something in his notebook. "Other universes are not affected by timeline changes, but can cause them when people enter who weren't originally supposed to. How is your sister?"

"Assumed evil or dead thanks to her doppelganger. Might want her to join your merry band. I'm considering coming back from the dead."

"I suppose you don't want to be a Legend,"

"No," Sara stood up tall. "Because I'll be legendary without joining some dumb time-traveling team. I should be a lawyer like my sister. Pick Laurel, not me."

"Well, very well then," A voice that was not Rip's said from outside the room. It was Snart.

"Did you finish uprising Blondie's memories into Englishman's artistic bobblehead?" Mick's voice asked.

"Uploading, Mick, and yes, Gideon now contains the memories of Sara Lance. This one is my favorite. It tells of a place called Nanda Parbat, and we can teleport to the time of this memory as this is a time machine." Snart replied.
