Part 17

Bruce watched as Alex geared up. He respected the former DEO agent. Maybe in another universe she would have made a good Batgirl. Of course he would give anything to give Barbara the ability to walk again. But Alex had proven she belonged with this group of heroes.

"I don't have to worry about you going rouge do I Alex?"

"No. As much as I hate Lex Luthor and Iris West right now. I know that I can't go after them with the intent to kill them. We need to get our friends back and let the government deal with them."

"You should know that Caitlin has been torchered."

"Why doesn't that surprise me? Bruce, why does Iris hate Caitlin so much? It has to be something other then the whole Savitar thing."

"I don't know. But we should meet up with the rest of the team."

Laurel and Dinah jumped to their feet when they heard a crash down the hall. Seconds later they saw Sara Lance dressed in her White Canary suit standing in front of them. Mick Rory soon joined her.

"Batman had a little chat with the President. Showed him some movies. Seems the President wasn't too happy about how the director of MARA is treating some of you prisoners. So by order of the President this place is being shut down. Agents from ARGUS and the DEO are taking all detainees into custody with the exception of a few that are being released in the custody of the Super Friends." Said Sara

"What the boss means is you two song birds, the former pig there and Frosty are coming with us. Skit's cousin is looking for her. Pretty, and Haircut are looking for Red and the Girly man. The two Bats are looking for the Green guy. The girl Flash and Wind girl are looking for Frosty's ex, nerd girl, Girl Flash's old man." Said Mick

"Then how about you get us out of here?" asked Dinah

Sara placed a device on the locks of the cells that held Laurel, Dinah, Lyla and Caitlin.

"Oracle do your thing." Said Sara into her com

Seconds later the four locks smoked and the doors opened.

"Sorry to the rest of you. But you will be staying here a little longer." Said Sara

Laurel and Dinah walked out of their cells. Lyla walked out of hers and into Caitlin's. Caitlin hadn't moved most of the day and hadn't spoken since the night before. Lyla checked on the doctor and found that her pulse was thready and irregular.

"Sara is the Waverider near by?" asked Lyla

"Just outside the building. Is Caitlin sick?" asked Sara

"Iris has taken great pleasure in torturing her. Your ship's AI should look her over."

"Mick take Caitlin back to the ship. Have Ava hook her up to the monitors so Gideon can take a look at her." Said Sara

"Got it boss."

Mick lifted Caitlin up into his arms gently cradling her head against his chest.

"Once we get out of the prison area you guys will get your powers back. We took out the dampeners everywhere but in the prison." Said Sara

"Sara once Caitlin is on the ship they should get that collar off her." Said Laurel

"It's a shock collar. The setting on Caitlin's is higher then everyone else's." Said Lyla

"Ava did you get that?"

"Got it. Med bay is already for the arrival of the former prisoners." Said Ava

Ray and Nate smiled at Barry and Cisco as the reached their cells.

"I think this is the second time we had to bust you out of a cell Cisco. Though Barry this is a first for you." Said Ray

"Just get us out of here. Oh and him too." Said Cisco pointing at Hartley.

"Yeah we need to find Cait." Said Barry

"Caitlin is on her way back to the Waverider. Whatever your nutcase ex did to her is pretty bad." Said Ray

"This is coming from a guy that as a kid adopted a baby Dominator and fell in love with Damian Darhk's daughter from the future." Said Nate

"Dude, her dad killed Laurel from pre crisis Earth-1!" said Cisco

"Yeah well she dumped me." Said Ray

"How about we discuss your love lives later and get the hell out of here before the crazy bitch tries to kill us! Cause until we get out of her none of you metas can use your powers." Said Hartley

"Why are you here if you aren't a meta?" asked Nate

"Who are you by the way?" asked Ray

"Hartley Rathaway sometimes friend of team Flash. I use sonic gauntlets to create sound waves to do stuff." Said Hartley

Ray opened the cells and the three men exited.

"Oh as for the rest of you. Some of your friendly neighborhood ARGUS agents will be by to take you into custody and review your cases." Said Nate

They five of them headed down the hall to meet up with the rest of the heroes.

Superman and Alex made their way through the female alien wing of the prison. It didn't take long for them to find Kara.

"Alex! Kal!" said Kara

"We're here to bust you and the rest of our friends out." Said Alex

"I think we should take those two with us." Said Kara pointing at the cells that held M'gann and Lyra.

"Fine with us." Said Superman

It didn't take Superman long to open the three cells. Alex supported Kara as they headed out.

"Whit Carney, does that time ship of yours have away to produce yellow solar radiation?" asked Alex

"Of course Wolf. Gideon, have a bed in the med bay prepared for Supergirl." Said Sara

"Right away Captain. Just have Mr. Kent bring Ms. Zor-El to the ship." Said Gideon

"You heard her Superman get your cousin to the ship." Said Alex

Superman picked up Kara and took off for the Waverider.

"How many more do we need to find?" asked Alex

"We got the two Black Carneries, Frost, Vibe and Flash. Along with Harbinger and someone called Pied Piper." Said Sara

"Add on Miss Martian and Lyra." Said Alex

"Just found Overwatch and her mother." Said Batwoman

"Martian Manhunter is secure." Said Batman

"Just found Firestorm." Said Zari

"Still no sign of my dad." Said Jesse

"Jesse, we aren't leaving until we find him. I don't leave a member of my team behind. Your dad is a member of my team." Said Sara

"I want to believe you. But I don't know you." Said Jesse

"Jesse, you trust Barry and Caitlin right?"

"Yes."

"They trust me. That should tell you something. Caitlin doesn't let people in easily. She considers me family."

"Ok White Canary, I trust you."
