Hello! Sorry this took so long. Life kind of happened. Assignments, midterms, and a car accident actually.
But this is for Kamil the Awesome who gave me a prompt! "Wally has a dream (which is a part from the show) and when he wakes up, Artemis is standing over him dressed as she was in the dream, holding his Kid Flash uniform. And add something fluffy to that." I took my own specific liberties to the the episode chosen.
See you all next time!
Wally has no idea why they need him and Artemis for this mission. He has his apprehension about this mission. Nightwing has reason to believe that the Light wants to destroy the interstellar space communicator to mars. But it's certainly nice seeing Artemis in the green uniform again even though they promised to never do it again.
The other reason why he hates being here is that Artemis is in tower with his best friend and he's on the ground watching for any sign of enemy.
"What does it feel like being back in the field again" he hears Dick ask Artemis over the com.
"Hey no hitting on my girlfriend" Wally announces loudly. "I know your track record."
He could hear Dick's smirk through the comlink.
"If nothing else we a nice view." Artemis says ignoring him.
Well of course you're nice to look at, Wally thinks before Nightwing initiates the link up with Miss. M.
There isn't anything particularly interesting happening in Wally's field of vision until shots are fired.
He hears Dick emphasises I know you're rusty but you're trying to get yourself killed. Wally really wants to say something snarky back at his BF for knocking down his girlfriend but he has men to beat up for shooting at said girlfriend.
He can tell that they are headed for the beach to stop the soldiers. Wally heads that way. That is why he was asked to help out. His speed could take them out before they shoot the rocket down. He's fighting those that are attempting to storm the beach so he doesn't initially register that Dick and Kaldur are fighting.
Or that Artemis tried to take Kaldur on.
But it's when Kaldur's blade is embedded in her flesh that he's lost the will to move and he barely registers his old friend's words, "Welcome back."
Wally is torn between going after the man that stabbed his girlfriend or helping her. Dick is already attempting to giver her CPR. Wally decides that Artemis matters more. He kneels by her head desperate to take her into his arms.
M'gann and Conner are standing, watching the scene unfold.
"I don't hear her breathing," Superboys says, Nightwing finally rests.
Wally leans over Artemis' slowly cooling body and cries.
He wakes up with a jolt and Artemis is standing over him in green with the kid flash costume in hand. Everything in the dream rushes back to him and he can't contain the over flowing emotions.
He's crying. Because he just saw one of his friends kill the love of his life right in front of him. Even though it is a dream and he knows that Kaldur has no mean bone in his body its still slightly upsetting holding your slowly growing cold dead girlfriend.
"Sussssh, Wally what's the matter?" Artemis says holding him to her chest. She glances out to the noise that's coming down from the hall. The Halloween Party he almost forgot about. It was the whole reason why he wanted to catch up on his sleep, to have a nap. So that he wouldn't miss out of the fun.
When he finally calms down he can see Artemis wave someone away that was standing in the doorway.
He rubs his eyes, "You died." He finally tells her. His voice is watery and he doesn't care that he is crying. This is one of the people he cares the most about there is reason to be this upset. "I watched someone kill you in front of me and I had super powers and there wasn't anything that I could do to stop it from happening."
Artemis buries her face into his red hair and he can feel her shake, maybe out of being upset to, "It was just a dream Wally." She whispers.
"I love you." It's all he can really say at this point. And he clings onto her to emphasize his need of her in his life.
"I know," She says as she returns the embrace. She smiles into his hair, "I love you too."
