"What do I do...What do I do?" Barry thought desperately as he looked at the brown bear who was eyeing him like he was deciding which part to eat first. If it was sunlight the boy would have surely seen him drooling. He kept himself calm from outside because any sudden hysterics from his side would want the bear to attack him on the spot but inwardly he was freaking out "This was so not on my schedule"
The bear wasn't as huge as grizzly bears usually were but he did look like over 300 pounds and stood more than three feet but that was huge enough for Barry. Even in the darkness he could see his slightly curved teeths and big claws. He was shaking so badly that the speedster thought his vibrating powers were back but that was not the case. He shook with fear. A very bad fear.
Barry knew he coudn't run even if he wasn't injured. As in this situation it would approve a definite attack from the bear. The said bear was now slowly approaching him but he didn't do anything else to make Barry think he was going to be his meal. The beast was mostly grunting at him. Maybe the bear might take mercy on him "O...Okay big fella...take it easy okay..." he spoke softly
The Bear let out a snort and again started to walk towards Barry who was slowly scrambling backwards. His pain in leg temporary forgotten as the beast stole his attention "You...you might want to...change your decision you know...I am no good in taste...see yuck! I am all covered in mud and blood.." Barry cursed himself. Why did he have to use the word blood. He just gave an icing on the cake for the bear "No...no blood on me...but you see I am not at all delicious...it's all bones...no flesh...they all call me skiny"
The Bear was not impressed with Barry's ramblings and he let out an angry howl as if telling the boy to shut up. Of course Barry didn't stop there "I am a hero okay...I save lives even bears lives too...if you eat me..I won't be able to save your community" he was still crawling backwards
The beast was done inspecting his prey and made a huge leap on Barry who let out a surprise yelp. The bear pinned the boy by his shoulders and was growling at him. Barry shook his head tears falling freely from his eyes. He fruitlessly struggled against the tight hold on him "Please don't...kill me"
The bear raised his huge paw to attack Barry's face when suddenly he was thrown away from him. The bear roared loudly and made an unhappy sound. He didn't attack again and ran to opposite direction. Barry was breathing heavily in the ground. His eyes were closed and was still trembling with fear. He was waiting for the bear to attack again but it never came
"Hey Barry! Open your eyes buddy. He is gone...it's okay now" Barry knew this voice and relief along with happiness ran through his body. He opened his eyes and saw Oliver looking at him with worry "Ollie?"
Oliver gave a small smile "I am here. And you are okay. Come on...let me help you up" he gingerly helped Barry sit upright who fell into his embrace "I am so sorry Ollie...so sorry...I shouldn't have blamed you...I am sorry" Barry was still shaking in his arms and it broke Oliver's heart. He frowned when he felt the boy was way too warm "It's not your fault...I am sorry too... for yelling at you"
Barry tore away from the hug "How did you find me and what did you do to the bear?" Oliver showed him a thick log "You know my aim is good" Barry laughed "And it wasn't difficult to track your limping legs with a stick"
The hero ducked his head down "Thank you Oliver. If you hadn't come then..." Oliver placed his hand on Barry's shoulder "I am not going to abandon you kid. We will get out of here. I promise" Barry gave a small smile and was then hauled up by Oliver. It was no use strolling in dark night with wild animals walking around so they decided to call it a night and found small cave.
Oliver laid Barry on his back who was very glad to finally rest "Damn...I feel like my bones and muscles are melting" Oliver gave an encouraging smile "It's the fever. First I am going to check your leg then we can eat sandwitches" Barry looked at him questionably "I didn't eat the sandwitches in my bag. I coudn't.." his voice trailed off. Barry didn't say anything but his eyes showed gratitude and respect for the vigilante.
Oliver opened the kit and retrieved a small plastic bottle of antiseptic. He knew this was going to hurt the boy but he had to make sure the wound is cleaned. He then unwrapped the bleeding cloth from the leg. Barry's hands were clenched into fists clearly fighting off the pain. Oliver winced when he saw the wound was swollen red and the skin was all squished together. He looked at Barry "I am using antiseptic solution...get ready"
Without waiting for Barry to reply Oliver poured down the liquid on the ankle letting it run down. The boy moaned loudly and tried to pull his leg back but Oliver kept a tight hold "Ssshh..it's over...just few more seconds" Barry shook his head "I...am fine...do what's needed" The vigilante nodded and quickly covered the wound with fresh bandages. He then went through the box and pulled out painkillers. Well they were for headaches but right now he didn't care. Atleast it will ease some of the boy's pain.
They then sat and ate sandwitches and for Barry they were literally food from heaven. He was then given painkillers and the hero fell asleep within seconds. Oliver decided not to sleep and keep an watch on the boy. He crossed his arms and thought about the happy moments he shared with felicity.
CENTRAL CITY
Joe took quick steps and entered the star lab where Caitlin and Iris were eagerly waiting for him. Iris rushed to her father "Dad! What happened?"
Joe looked tired and frustrated. He ran his hand on his face "The rescue force people said since its late night they wouldn't be able to locate them so they will start their search in the daylight" Iris's face fell "Daylight? But what if they are in trouble now dad? This is ridiculous"
"Iris don't think so negative. Maybe they are safe" Caitlin spoke softly to her friend. Just then Cisco came running inside "Guys! Felicity just called...we found the jet!" Joe and others sighed in relief "Where are they Cisco?"
"Okay now for bad news...their plane did get crashed into an island near Costa Rica" Cisco said apologetically. Iris coudn't hold back her tears hearing the news "Are...are they..Barry?"
"I don't know Iris...Felicity coudn't locate them...it's just their jet and..and she also said the jet was located at two different places" Cisco ran his hand on hair. Joe gaped at the scientist "Two different places? How is that possible"
After few moment of silence Iris eyes widened "It means their jet was broken in half Dad! Oh my God...Barry!" she broke down and cried openly. Joe rushed to his daughter and hugged her "He is fine Iris. We will get him back!" His phone vibrated and Joe pulled out his cell "Detective West...What? Are you sure? Tell me exactly where? Jesus"
Iris wiped her tears "What is it Dad?" Joe's eyes held worry and fear in them "My officers located Gabriel in the island near Costa Rica. The same island where Barry and Oliver's jet got crashed"
The star labs went into dead silent.
