Author's Note: Yeah, another chapter written.

Enjoy

Phil sat on the bench and watched the world he was in.

This was the future, he was in the future and it was amazing. Yes, he had been living on a timeship for the last few days but somehow this made it seem real.

He watched the cars, saw people walking around in strange clothes, using what he finally worked out were phones and then there were the ton of coffee shops selling weird concoctions when all he wanted was a black coffee.

It was overwhelming.

"Gideon?" he said softly.

"Yes, Mr Gasmer," her voice came in his ear.

Relief filled him that she was still there, "I'm not sure this was a good idea."

"What was not?" Gideon asked concerned.

Phil sighed, "This. Coming out into the city. I don't belong here."

"Then return to the ship," Gideon told him, "You belong on the Waverider."

Warmth filled him and Phil smiled slightly at her words before he grimaced, "I don't actually know where I am, Gideon. Is there a way you can show me how to get back?"

"Stay were you are," Gideon told him, "I have someone coming to bring you back to me."

A few seconds later in a blur of yellow lightning a man wearing a red suit appeared suddenly. Phil stared at him with wide-eyes, he'd never seen anything like this even when he was high.

"Hi," the man smiled at him, "Gideon sent me to get you back to the ship."

Unable to say anything, Phil continued to stare at the man.

The guy in red chuckled, "Are you ready?"

Grimacing slightly in confusion Phil nodded, giving a cry of shock when the world blurred around him and he was suddenly on the bridge of the Waverider again.

"What the hell just happened?" Phil demanded, staggering away from the man.

"Mr Allen is a friend," Gideon's voice came soothingly.

Phil shook his head seeing the man in red remove the hood, surprised by how young the man standing there was.

He gave a bright smile, "I'm Barry."

"Ahh, Phil," he introduced himself.

"Sorry about the run back," Barry smiled, "But Gideon said you wanted to get here quickly. I take it you didn't like Central City."

Phil shrugged self-consciously, "It was not what I was expecting."

Barry nodded, "You know, if you want, I can show you around the city."

It seemed like a genuine offer, but Phil wasn't sure it was.

"Mr Allen has not yet met Captain Hunter," Gideon assured him in his ear, so Barry didn't hear, "I promise you."

Reassured by Gideon that this wasn't someone else trying to bring back the man he no longer was, Phil gave a nod, "That'd be cool. But as long as we walk at a normal speed."

Barry laughed, "Promise."

They walked into the building the ship was parked beside so Barry could change into his street clothes. Phil was happy he'd spent so much time on the ship already otherwise he would have stared at everything.

"How can you…" Phil trailed off for a second before finishing, "Do what you did?"

Barry laughed, he was such a genuine and open person that Phil found himself relaxing, "That is a long story."

"I've got the time," Phil noted.

Barry chuckled again, "True."

"Hey," a new voice preceded another man with long dark hair and worried look on his face, "Why is the Waverider here?"

"They need Lily for something," Barry told him before introducing, "Cisco, this is Phil. He's joined the Legends recently."

Cisco nodded offering his hand, "Nice to meet you."

Taking the other man's hand Phil opened his mouth to reply but couldn't as he was suddenly assaulted by a barrage of images. Yanking his hand back Phil staggered away from the two men and out the door, he stopped just outside to try to catch his breath hearing the two men inside.

"What happened?" Barry asked.

Phil felt his body freeze when Cisco replied, "I think we just met Rip Hunter."
