A/N: Holy Crap! 5,000 views? You guys are awesome!

I think I have finally created an evil contingency worthy of the Light. It's not as good as the show's, but it's a back up plan. It's not supposed to be.

Mount Justice

September 25, 13:57

Wally woke up in the Cave's med-bay alone. He assumed that was a free pass to get up. He was hungry, and he wanted food.

When he ran into Kaldur he thought of something.

"Hey, Kal, what's the date?"

"Wally! You shouldn't be up"

"Yeah, yeah, I was hungry. What is the date?"

"September 25th. Why?"

They heard an explosion echo through the mountain.

"That's why!"

They had to find Superboy and Miss Martian. They had less than a minute before they were both taken out by the Reds.

"What's going on?" Kaldur asked him.

"The Reds! They're like evil versions of tornado, only they control fire and water instead of air!"

It was too late to save the other two. By the time Wally and Kaldur reached them M'Gann was in the box of fire and Conner was struggling to escape from a block of metal.

All it took for them to defeat Kaldur was a few blasts of fire. Wally ran. He felt like a coward, but he had lost to them easily last time around and his newfound speed was pretty inconsistent. The Zoom incident was the first time it had worked since he'd fought Cheshire. But if he could hold out until Robin and Artemis showed up he had a chance.

Then he realized he didn't even have to do that. They had beaten them with an EMP last time. Wally could build an EMP. All he had to do was get the parts from the X-ray machine and hook it up to the main generator.

His heart sank. The main generator was right where the Reds were, and Wally couldn't touch Robin or Artemis in terms of stealth.

He figured he might as well make it anyway. With any luck, Robin could activate it as soon as he showed up and this would all be over with as quickly as possible.

Of course, the plan didn't go quite as he intended. Torpedo caught him sneaking around in the med-bay. The room was practically filled with water in seconds.

Wally woke up in a twisted hunk of metal next to Superboy. This was really not his day.

"Hey, uh, how long have I been here?" Wally asked him.

"I don't know, ten minutes or so" Conner replied.

"Have Robin and Artemis gotten here yet?"

"Yes, they showed up a few minutes ago"

As if on cue, the two of them burst through the water. Unfortunately, they came up right in front of the Reds.

"Look out!" Wally called.

They dove out of the way of a fireball. Both of them swam underwater to where Kid Flash and Superboy were trapped.

"KF, you've been through this before, what do we do?"

"You need to make an EMP. I made one earlier but I think it got destroyed in the fight. Head down to the med-bay"

"Of course! They're machines! An EMP would totally whelm them."

Both of them swam towards the stairs, where they were cornered by the two robots. Artemis used the last of her arrows on Inferno, while Robin threw a couple birdarangs at Torpedo. One of them ricocheted off his head and imbedded itself in the metal inches from Wally's face. The robots fired at the two heroes, who dove back into the water.

A few minutes later Robin's voice came through the birdarang.

"Okay, we're here, now what?"

"You need to find a vacuum tube called a vicrometer. Reprogram the energy from X-rays to EMP cascading outwards"

"Like dropping a stone in a pond!"

"A stone with 10 to the twelfth volts, yeah"

The radio went silent for a few minutes.

"Hey, if you've already been through this, is Megan going to-"

Wally smiled confidently.

"She'll be fine Conner. We'll all be fine"

Conner looked relived, but still slightly anxious.

"Alright guys, make with the distractions"

"Hey Red Tomato, what's your girlfriend's name, Red Onion?"

"By the way, worst deathtrap ever!"

"I could vibrate my molecules out of here faster than your binary brains can count to two!"

Wally had a thought. If he had been able to run faster, was he able to vibrate now too?

He figured now was as good a time to try as ever. Conner called out something about Kryptonians not breathing air, but Wally wasn't really paying attention. If he got out he could help his friends. If not, it would still be pretty good distraction.

He focused on what his uncle had taught him before they discovered Wally couldn't vibrate. Pulling together all of the concentration he could muster, he moved each molecule in his body at a constant rate. Then he started to speed up. He could feel himself starting to slip through the metal. Willing himself to move faster, he pulled his body directly through the prison cell. He was maybe halfway through when felt a wave crash down on top of him. He was really lightheaded at this point.

Somewhere nearby he heard a crash, then a scream and an explosion. Apparently he had failed as a distraction. Oh well. He could still escape.

"One minute"

He was almost free. All he needed would be a few more seconds...

"I surrender. Stop the clock"

Well, they were going to win anyway. Wally was confident that Artemis could make the shot. Sure enough, the Reds collapsed, the water receded, and the fire cage around Miss Martian and Aqualad disintegrated. The threat was passed. At this point it really didn't matter if he succeeded or not. He really just wanted to prove to himself that he could do this.

He finally broke through. He fell to his hands and knees, panting.

That was when he realized that everyone was watching him.

"Nice job, Wally! I knew you could do it!" Robin clapped him on the back

"How long was I doing that?" Wally asked

"A while"

Wally turned around and saw he had practically melted a hole directly through the steel.

"I did that?" Wally said, as if he didn't believe it himself

"What happened here?" asked a robotic voice from the zeta-beam

Leave it to Red Tornado to not show up until the bad guys had already been defeated.

"Your family attacked us" Robin replied.

For some reason Wally felt like he had to do something really important, but he couldn't remember what it was through the fatigue.

"I was not aware that I had relations"

It was super important. If he didn't, then something bad would happen.

The drill that the others tried to free Superboy with suddenly turned on. Red Tornado approached the parts of the evil robots.

Wally remembered what he had to do.

Tornado would touch Torpedo and turn on them. Wally summoned the last of his strength and ran at him.

"Don't touch him!"

It was too late. A spark jumped between their fingers. Their mentor's eyes turned red. Wally inhaled, but it was no use. He passed out. Again. This was really not his day.

A/N: I feel like I keep having to come up with more and more ridiculous and convoluted methods to preserve the plot. I think this was one of my weaker chapters. Sorry.

I'm still not quite sure what to do with Failsafe. I will either have to make large changes or drop it entirely. What do you think?
