I was waiting for more reviews, but I have to get this out of my system….anyway I don't have much to say other than review! REVIEW! Enjoy!

Disclaimer: I don't own anything

Rudolph West stood in the hospital, wanting his son. Immediately, Kent went in front of Wally and started growling. What a smart dog! That dog should get a cookie! Mary West looked at him in shock, and got in front of Wally protectively. No way was this bastard hurting her son again. Kent kept growling and Rudolph glared. "Go away, you're not allowed to see my son," Mary said firmly.

"Your son? He's OUR SON!" he yelled

"Last time I recall, you called him useless and wishing he was never your son!" Mary said

"What's going on?" Wally asked "Dad, what happened?" He said as he took a step forwards to his dad

Mary pulled him back behind her and Kent. Wally was so confused. Why are mom and dad fighting? Did dad really say those things? Artemis and Robin were thinking the exact same thing as Wally.

"Paula, can you take Wally out of here?" Mary whispered.

"Of course; Wally, Artemis, Rob, let's go." She said as she led them out the back entrance. Kent stayed with Mary, to protect her in case. "Wally you stay right here." Rudolph growled

Wally did as he was told. He never disobeyed his parents, he respected them. But why does this bother him? Something happened in those three weeks and it changed him, and his family. Sure his mom had cancer, but they could treat it, so he wasn't worried. There was silence, and Wally's dad said in a calm voice, "Wally come home with me, I have something for you. You worried me when you got caught in that fire…"

"Are you serious Rudolph?" Mary screeched

"As serious as cancer," Rudolph said with a smirk.

Major. Low. Mary didn't say anything, and neither did anyone else. "Wally go wait in the car." Mary said

Wally looked at them strangely and slowly went past them into the parking lot, Kent following him this time. He looked and saw his dad's car. He went over and sat in the passenger's seat, and let Kent into the back. He was pretty sure his mom was coming in for her morning shift in the hospital as usual, so he didn't bother to get into her car. He waited, and finally his mother and father came out. His dad saw him and smirked. Wally gave an uneasy smile back, and Rudolph got in the car, and started to drive away.

Mary looked frantically at her car, and as to why Wally wasn't in it. She then saw Rudolph drive by, with Wally with him! She panic and got into her car and started to drive after them, but as soon as she turned the corner, she didn't see their car. It was a four way intersection, and she didn't know where they went. She pulled over and sobbed.


Wally and his dad didn't go back to their house, for it was burnt to the ground. Rudolph knew Wally was bound to remember, and that was just fine, for he had him just where he wanted him right now. They were in Blue Valley, where they owned another house that used to belong to Rudolph's parents. They went in and said good night. The drive took all day, and they were exhausted. Wally slept with Kent, who seemed to be keeping an eye on the door. Wally fell asleep and didn't wake up until afternoon the next morning, with a knock on the door.

"Hi, are you, Wallace Rudolph West?" the guy asked

Wally groaned at his name, "Yeah that's me."

The guy handed him a package and Wally signed a form. He went back into his room to open it. Last night he got almost all of his memories back, all ones involving the hero business I mean. He looked at the note and read it. It was objects that survived the fire. Maybe this will help him remember, but odds are they won't.

He opened it and took an object out; it was a picture of him and his mom and dad, but his dad got burnt out. Shame, it really was. The next thing he pulled out was his homework. Of course this had to survive the fire, it was a great excuse of not being able to do his homework to: sorry I didn't do my homework, it caught on fire with my house.

The next object sparked something; it was his camera. It was a bit burnt, but looked fine. He turned it on and it worked. The only thing that was wrong with it was that the screen was broken so you couldn't see anything.

Flash! A picture was taken.

Printed and put next to a paper with words on them.

Typing…on a keyboard. Saving on a flash drive: Proof

Wally held his head in pain. He named a file 'Proof'? What did he have proof of? He got the last object out, and as faith would have it, it was the flash drive. He put it in his pocket to look up later. He wanted to talk to his dad. "Dad!"

"In the garage." He heard him say

"He went down there and saw his father drinking. That's a first to Wally. He always thought he was a sober man. "Dad, when is mom coming?" Wally asked

"Um, she's not Wally."

"Why?"

"Because we had an argument and she wanted space," he said, and technically he wasn't lying.

"Oh, ok, but things will get better right?" He asked

"Don't think so son," Rudolph said.

Wally frowned and left the man to his drinking. Now Wally was really depressed. He went back up to his room and got the pills the doctor gave him. Some were his regular pills, which provided more nutrients for speedsters, because sometimes food just won't cut it. The next were anti-depressants. The doctor had given them to Wally, saying he'll need them for a while. He didn't know why, he was happy, but now he wasn't. He had to take four a day. Two in the morning and two at night and only on the day he became sad. So starting now, he was on anti-depressants.

Wally swallowed his pills and went to the study. He plugged his flash drive in and opened the file that said 'Proof'. He looked at the pictures, and memories came flowing back.

Mom has cancer; she's going to die soon.

"I don't want my mom to leave me," Wally sobbed into Black Canary's arms.

"You will take whatever I give you, you will obey me, and you will go along with what I say to your mother, got it?"

Punch. Kick. Blood. Pain. Betrayal.

"You're cheating on mom!" "She's going to dies soon, so what difference does it make?"

Two of them are wrestling each other. Fire.

"Welcome to hell, and I hope you burn to ashes."

Wally was on the ground breathing heavy. He remembered everything now. He had his proof, now he needed to get out of here. He ran out of the room and bumped into his dad. He backed away and ran to his room. His dad knew he would remember now. He looked out the windowed and frowned. It was still snowing outside. Of course it was, it was December 21st.

Wall's dad came storming into his room and went after Wally. Kent jumped at Rudolph and bites his arm. Wally took that opportunity to open the window. He looked over and Kent was still biting. "Come on Kent!" Wally yelled

Kent let go, and Rudolph's arm was bleeding. Kent jumped out the window, and Wally followed. His father grabbed his leg though. He got pulled back in, and as he crashed to the floor, he dropped the flash drive. Rudolph didn't hesitate to crush it. Why can't I do anything right? It's so simple, just take the evidence and go, but me being useless, I can't do that! Wally thought

His dad straddled him and punched him in the face. He was about to again when Kent jumped at him. Kent got him off of Wally, but Rudolph hit Kent and he went across the room. How dare he hit a dog! Kent ran towards the door that was now open and barked for Wally. Wally ran towards it and ran down the stairs. He ran the speed Kent did. He was not leaving behind the one thing that saved him.

His dad began throwing things at him. He threw empty bottles of beer, a vase, and even some furniture! One of the chairs caught Wally's leg and he went tumbling down. Wally got up immediately and out the door. He was limping now, but he still ran. He wasn't going to be powerless against his own father. He ran and ran until that house was out of sight. He and Kent stopped and took a breath. Wally was tired, for some unknown reason. Wally got up to walk again, but staggered into the street, where his father caught up to him, and hit him.
