This is chapter 3 of a romance story following Captain Cold and Hawkgirl's relationship development. This is a story about a guilty pleasure of mine, so please be nice!

We'll start at the very beginning of the episode, and I'm sorry that I forgot the stab wound Savage gave Kendra! Just pretend that did happen please, okay? Great!

Note: Kendra will be crying in the end of the story. Thought I would say that.

Gideon: Captain, we've arrived in Leipzig. Also, you and Dr. Stein are needed urgently in the Med-bay.

Rip: What the... Uh Oh!

Martin: What "Uh Oh"?

Kendra: Carter... CARTER!

Martin: He... he's gone Kendra. I'm so sorry.

Kendra: Why... Why did you leave him?!

Ray: What the heck?!

Rip then gave Kendra a mild sedative to quiet her down.

Rip: Gideon, what happened?

Gideon: The fragments of Vandal Savage's dagger are making their way to her heart.

When Rip broke the news to the team, they weren't pleased.

Sara: What?!

Jax: Rip, can't we just time jump to the future where that stuff exists in Wal-Mart?

Rip: We have yet to save that future, and this ship is also from that very future, and even if we did get the stuff necessary...

Leonard: Kendra wouldn't survive the jump. I've been paying attention.

Mick: Sum up: Carter Hall is dead, girlfriend isn't too far behind, Vandal Savage is sitting pretty in 1975, which we are now stuck in. Beautiful. That how the plan supposed to work, Rip?

Rip: No, but the mission is simple! We stop Vandal Savage here in the past, and then we save the future.

Leonard: Simple don't always mean easy Captain.

Rip: Oh, but I never said it was. I have seen Men of Steel die and Dark Knights fall, but I can promise you, I always complete my mission. No matter what.

Leonard: If it means we can save Kendra, then I'm in.

Gideon: Captain, when Kronos attacked us, the jumpship was damaged.

Jax: Hold up, jumpship?

Leonard: A one-way ticket back to 2016.

Rip: And since Jax here is a mechanic, would you mind checking it?

Jax: Hold up, auto mechanic. Space? But if you've got a set of wrenches, I'll see if I can do anything.

Mick: What about the rest of us? Do we just sit?

Rip: Excellent idea, Mr. Rory!

Leonard: I'll stay with Kendra.

Leonard walked to the Med-bay, while Jax walked behind Rip.

Mick: I think he thinks I'm stupid.

Sara: He isn't far off.

Leonard: Why does Kendra have a mask on?

Martin: She needs to breathe. The knife fragments are getting closer to her heart, so we will inject Raymond into her body to vaporize them. It is the safest course of action.

Ray: Let's do this. Leonard, would you do the honors? She is fairly fond of you.

Leonard: Shut it Palmer, or else... You know what, just save her.

Leonard injected Ray into Kendra, silently praying that she would be okay. Truth be told, he had grown quite fond of the princess. But he would never say that out loud.

Ray did save Kendra, but the next mission that happened was even worse than before. Carter's body had been used to give Savage's minions an extra 420 to 666 extra years to live. Luckily, Savage had been killed, giving the team a few days of rest before he reincarnated. It was pretty bone chilling, as Rip was almost killed, Sara was actually drunk and tried to kiss Ray, much to everyone's grossness. While the rest of the team was getting their much-needed rest, Kendra couldn't sleep. Carter haunted her dreams, and she was scared. Finally, she decided enough was enough, and headed to Leonard's room, where he was still awake.

Leonard: What's wrong?

Kendra: I can't sleep. Carter... He's haunting my dreams.

Leonard: Kendra, you can...

Leonard didn't have time before Kendra finally burst out crying. He wrapped his arms around her, trying to provide some comfort. She finally sat down next to him on his bed as she began to hiccup. He ran his fingers through her surprisingly silky hair, loving the feeling.

Before Leonard knew it, Kendra was asleep in his arms. He tucked her under the covers of his bed, and proceeded to make himself a makeshift bed on the floor. Leonard thought there was something wrong with him. He was never this compassionate. He just left it at he was possibly sick. Well, in reality, he was harboring feelings for Kendra.

And sooner rather than later, those feelings would become reality.

Emotional Kendra and a Comforting Leonard. What is wrong with me?! Either way, more Coldhawk will come soon. :)
