Alrighty guys: Chapter 15! Lets do this!

Oh, and this is something I wanted to mention: I won't be re-writing Season 3 of Legends for this book sadly. I think the way that this story will end will satisfy all, BUT! I will, however, be re-writing S3 of the Flash when summertime comes! Stay tuned guys! ;)

I'm also doing a few collab fics with my best fanfiction friend, radpineapple. :D

Now, onto the chapter! (and there's a poll on my profile where you can vote for who you think The Pilgrim is)

Chapter 15: Livin' In A Gangsta's Paradise

Currently, the newest Legends were recovering from the latest time jump, from 1492 San Salvador to the Temporal Zone. Tatsu was temporarily blind, and Nate couldn't feel his legs.

"It'll be like that for a while," Leonard said, ever positive.

"I feel like I'm gonna die," Nate muttered, nearly throwing up.

"Yeah, you look pale," Mick said nonchalantly.

"No-no, guys," Nate uttered, gagging. "I feel..."

He then passed out in the middle of the floor.

"NATHANIEL!" yelled Tatsu, jumping out of her seat, and falling as well due to her temporary blindness.

"Get him to the med-bay!" Sara said, picking him up with Ray. Floyd helped guide Tatsu through the halls of the Waverider. When they got to the med-bay, Nate was on the bed within seconds, hooked up to Gideon.

"I have administered a small sedative," Gideon said, before she gasped. "Oh no..."

"What is it?!" Tatsu screamed, looking around with very little vision.

"It appears Dr. Heywood has contracted a very severe sickness, likely caused by a bug bite from 1492," Gideon explained. "I'd say he has about twenty four hours to live."

"WHAT?!" Tatsu yelled again. "Nathaniel! ANSWER ME-"

"Hey hey, hey!" Floyd said, holding her down as gently as possible. "We'll get a cure for him. Right Gideon?"

"I... I can't answer that for sure, Mr. Lawton," Gideon said. "I do hope none of you had any feuds with Dr. Heywood, because chances are rising that you won't get to settle it."

"No no NO!" Tatsu yelled.

"Look at me, Tatsu," Floyd said. "I think you're having a panic attack...alright, I want you to tell me: how long have you had Nate under your wing?"

Tatsu breathed slowly, before saying "About 2 years..."

"Good," Floyd said. "Now, what would you do if-"

"I have discovered a cure!" Gideon's voice suddenly said.

"When?" Tatsu asked, a little more calm thanks to Floyd.

"That's the bad news," Gideon muttered. "I have discovered that the cure is located in 1927, Chicago...and its in the hands of Al Capone."

"Oh god no," Sara muttered.

"That's like walking into a death trap," Ray said. "What, should we just ask Capone to hand it over?"

"Listen," Floyd said, helping Tatsu up, "Why don't you guys take care of Capone and that cure? I'll stay here with Tatsu and make sure she doesn't lose herself."

"I'm fine," Tatsu said.

"No you are not," Floyd rebutted. "Now, come on. You look seriously hungry."

Tatsu was reluctant to do so, but she followed the ex-Suicide Squad member towards the kitchen.

Ray then looked up at his girlfriend, "So, shall I grab my fedora?"

"If you have a fedora in your closet, I...will do something to you," Sara said, partly threatening and partly joking.

So, when the two arrived back on the bridge, Leonard wasn't pleased.

Not with the time period, as he had always looked up to Capone in his criminal years, but the reason for why they were headed there.

"Looks like Bonnie and Clyde have been the bearers of bad news today," Mick chuckled.

"This sounds serious," Amaya commented.

"I do believe Ms. Jiwe is right," Stein said.

"Are we so sure that the cure to whatever Nate has is actually even in 1927?" Rory asked. "I don't doubt Gideon, but..."

"Yeah, what if...there is no cure?" Kendra asked.

"There has to be," Jax said. "I'm not losing a Legend the exact same moment we came back."

"Then let's head out," Leonard said.

However...he couldn't help but imagine that this would end badly.

Currently, The Pilgrim was training with Talia for her sword skill set to improve.

"You are getting better, my pupil," Talia smiled, laying her sword aside as The Pilgrim recovered her mask and coat. "The Legends won't stand a chance against you soon enough."

"Thank you Talia," The Pilgrim said, placing her mask back on. "Its good to know that I am not totally useless."

"Stop it with feeling useless," Talia said, placing a hand on the woman's shoulder. "You're strong, powerful, and beautiful; anyone who dares say otherwise will meet my sword."

The Pilgrim let out a soft chuckle. "You're an amazing teacher Talia."

Talia let a small smile creep onto her face, but Adrian wandered into the room.

"Ladies, you two are gonna want to come in here pretty fast," he said.

The two women rushed into a nearby room with Adrian, where Eobard was waiting for all of them. Adrian's scarred eye looked at Eobard dangerously.

"We have located the first fragment of the Spear of Destiny," Eobard declared.

"The spear that penetrated the side of Christ on the Cross," said The Pilgrim.

"But why are we hunting the spear when the Legends are on the loose?" asked Talia.

"Because when we get said spear," Eobard began, "we do not have to worry about said Legends..."

"And how is that so?" asked The Pilgrim.

"The spear can be used to re-write reality itself," smirked Eobard. "And with it, we can do anything... change our destiny, bring back deceased loved ones, and even make the Legends our servants..."

"Good," Adrian declared. "I would do anything to bring back Doris, and get rid of this hideous scar too..."

"Why did you murder Doris anyway?" asked Eobard. "Not like you had much longer as Prometheus after that anyway-"

Adrian suddenly grabbed Eobard by his neck and punched him in the face.

"You mention her name one more time, I dare you..." he growled lowly.

"Or what?" Eobard smirked. "I'm a speedster..."

"You act like I'm supposed to fear that factor," Adrian growled. "It just makes me wanna kick your ass even more, Chronos."

Eobard sighed... he didn't need his second-in-command angry right now.

Not now...

"Very well then, you win," Eobard declared. "Just remember: we're a team. We don't need a civil war between us."

"You mean a war, there would be nothing civil about it," Talia smiled. "Now, shall we pay Mr. Capone a visit?"

"Lets do it," The Pilgrim said.

And with that, the legion changed into their 1920's garbs, with The Pilgrim still not revealing her true identity that hid underneath the mask.

Meanwhile, however, the Legends were having a blast.

Mick and Amaya were disguised as a cute newly-wed couple named Clyde and Bonnie Rory. Sara was disguised as a vintage flapper, with Ray as her husband. Leonard was a guard along with Jax, and Martin was some sort of singer, while Kendra was a normal civilian. Rory had taken the role of a detective specializing in bringing down Al Capone.

"I've always wanted to visit Chicago," smiled Amaya. "Mom's magazines didn't do it justice."

"Illegal drinking, gambling, and prostitution," sighed Stein. "I hate this era."

"I feel right at home professor," smiled Mick.

"Oh, of course you do," Rory muttered.

"Focus, team," Leonard chided. "We need to find some dingus named Eliot Ness, chief in bringing down Capone."

"I thought that was tax evasion," said Rory.

"Kid's got a point," Sara said.

"I'm 24," Rory replied.

"Hi 24, I'm Sara Lance," Sara smirked. Rory couldn't help but chuckle as Ray wrapped an arm around his girlfriend.

"This is gonna be harder without Floyd," Jax said. "He's got the fastest draw out of anyone here."

"I wonder why they call him Deadshot," Kendra said sarcastically. Jax let out a chuckle.

"Lets split u-" Stein began, before he was cut off...

His younger self was wandering the streets.

He was the anachronism.

"Jefferson," Stein whispered to him. "C-Come with me, please."

"Okay..." Jax said. His telepathic link was at work; he knew something was off with Grey. But he didn't question it as he wandered off with him.

"Jefferson, my younger self is the anachronism," Stein said.

"What the hell?" Jax whispered. "How did your younger self get in 1927?"

"I would believe our friends Chronos, Prometheus, and The Pilgrim would have something to do with it," sighed the professor.

"Should we, uh..." Jax paused.

"What is it?" Stein asked.

"I just found Capone," said Jax...

Pointing over to where the gangster stood, with young Stein.

"My god," Young Stein muttered to himself. "You-you're Scarface."

"Scarface? I hated that nickname ever since it was given to me," Capone growled dangerously. "Lets get him, boys."

Two of Capone's men took out Young Stein with the butts of their Tommy guns, and dragged him away. Since it was 20's Chicago, no one batted an eye.

"We gotta call the others," Jax declared.

"I saw them enter a nearby bar," said Stein. "Lets go."

When they entered the bar, however, not one of the Legends seemed to remember their mission.

Sara was tap dancing up on stage with Amaya singing some doo-wop song right beside her, the two somehow gaining access to the stage; Rory was patting Mick's back, the latter having passed out from drinks. Ray was applauding his girlfriend, whilst Leonard and Kendra just observed with smiles.

Even Jax and Stein couldn't deny that Sara Lance could tap dance better than anyone they'd ever seen.

When she and Amaya were through though, they immediately gathered the team together.

"Guys, Grey's younger self is the anachronism," Jax said. "And he was just kidnapped by Capone too."

"Well, I was waiting for something to pop up," Rory smirked.

"Lets rock this gangsta's paradise," Kendra smirked, making finger guns.

Ray then picked up the drunk Mick, throwing his legs over his shoulders. "Lets bounce. And, uh, hon... you sure you're gonna fight Capone in those shoes?"

"I've broken necks with a broken ankle," Sara smirked, winking at him.

"Lets go team," Leonard said, moving out with them.

Meanwhile, Tatsu had remained by Nate's side for the past two or three hours that he had been lying there, softly crying on occasion.

The only tears she had ever shed came from the deaths of Akio and Maseo, and the stories of her ancestors.

But now, her protege was dying because of a disease she could have easily prevented from happening...

"You blame yourself, don't you?"

Floyd's voice echoed in the med-bay, and Tatsu's tear stained face looked up at him, trying to make as much confidence for herself as possible.

"Mr. Lawton, I didn't hear you come in," she stammered. "W-would you like something?"

"Yeah, you to follow me," Floyd said. "If you just stare at him, he ain't getting better any faster."

Tatsu really, really wanted to tell the marksman that he was wrong...

But the thing is, he wasn't.

And she reluctantly stood up, following him down the halls of the Waverider.

"You'll get used to it," Floyd said, trying to provide some comfort to the woman. It wasn't doing much good, but a little was better than none.

He soon led her to the kitchen, where he poured them both a shot of Brandy.

"You'll need it, especially after now," sighed Floyd, downing his shot. Tatsu held it, staring at the glass and not responding.

"Tatsu, please," Floyd said. "At least say something."

"I failed him," she whispered.

"Its a start," Floyd's little voice inside his head whispered.

"I was supposed to defend him with my life," she said, the tears welling up in her eyes again as he moved next to her. "I took him underneath my wing, swore I would teach him everything I knew... I had a feeling I should have just let him stay back in 2017."

"Maybe, but he's here now," Floyd said, putting his hand on her shoulder. "And...just imagine what could happen if you left him back in 2017. Kid seemed kinda reckless without you."'

Tatsu chuckled softly. "..Thank you Floyd. I needed that."

"Anything for a fellow Legend," he smiled at her. "Now, you need another drink?"

"Oh, you have no idea," Tatsu said, pouring another shot of Brandy, due to her last one spilling in their chat.

The two then clinked their glasses, knowing that this was the start of a wonderful friendship.

The gangster group of Al Capone was now at the docks, with Young Stein's feet tied to cinder blocks.

"Very popular these days, those things are," Capone chuckled dryly. "They look to be just your size Mr. Stein."

"Go to the place where all the bad people go!" Young Stein yelled.

"You mean hell? I would, but I like it here better," Capone smirked. "Welcome to-"

"HANDS OFF!"

Capone and his posse looked off to their sides, and there were the present Legends, none of them in their traditional battle clothes. Sara wielded her tap shoes as her weapons, Rory had a set of knives, and Ray had a drunk Mick. Amaya had her totem, and the rest were using board planks. And then there was Firestorm.

Pretty good arsenal if you ask me.

Anyway, Capone didn't seem fazed at all. "Some new play-things? Sounds nice to me. Light em up boys!"

Capone's men pulled out their guns, and started firing at the Legends...

Sara had five teeth knocked out of one of the gangsters within six seconds.

Leonard and Kendra kept on knocking out goons, working together like a charm. Amaya noticed, and made sure that Young Stein was safe, while also observing her sweet, sweet OTP...

Wait, what?

Anyway, all seemed to be going well...

But suddenly, Eobard's team showed up.

"Well well well," Adrian muttered, staring at the Legends. "Now this is-"

"Interesting," Talia smirked. Adrian couldn't lie; after he had saved her moments before she would have died on Lian Yu, Talia had grown a smart mouth.

To him, it was awesome.

"I got the captain and the hawk," Adrian said. "Just don't let Sara's shoes hit anything on you. Those things are killers stronger than any of us."

"They're heels," Talia said.

"You're point?" asked The Pilgrim. "They have metal reinforcing them. That shit's deadly."

"Lets just kill them," Eobard sighed.

And with that, the legion raced toward their specified combatants.

Leonard and Kendra instantly found out that you didn't stand a chance against Adrian Chase with nothing but boardwalk planks.

And soon enough...

He had a gun to Kendra's head, forcing Leonard to drop the plank as he pleaded for the sobbing Kendra's life.

"C'mon, come clean about it..." Adrian growled. "Tell me, Leo."

"Tell you what?!" Leonard screamed. He didn't realize how much Kendra meant to him before this moment, and he regretted that so badly...for this may be the last time he laid sight on her chocolate brown eyes.

"What you're too scared to tell Sara, Raymond, Mick, Kendra, Lisa! TELL ME!" Adrian screamed, tightening the already-firm grip he had on Kendra.

Leonard knew...

But he, for the first time... was scared.

"I-I, I'm afraid..." he whispered.

"What?" Adrian asked, tilting his head. "Say that again."

"I'm afraid...I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY SISTER! OR MY TEAM! OR KENDRA!" he bellowed, causing the Legends to look over. Even Eobard's team seemed interested.

Adrian Chase was a man who could break anyone...some just took more time than others.

He could add Leonard to this list.

"Good," Adrian whispered. He then let Kendra go, and she threw herself into Leonard's arms as she sobbed, barely able to stand up.

Even Sara looked to be near tears at how much pain Kendra was in.

"Oh, and here's a lil souvenir," Adrian winked, tossing something Amaya's way. She caught it, but it was nothing more than a small tube.

"What is it?" Amaya demanded.

"Nate's cure," Adrian smirked evilly.

It wasn't even a mere five seconds before the legion disappeared, heading back into their headquarters at the destroyed Vanishing Point.

Back on the Waverider, meanwhile, Floyd and Tatsu greeted their team with open arms.

"Where's Kendra and the captain?" asked Floyd.

"Resting," said Rory. "I wouldn't disturb them."

Tatsu nodded, before asking, "Did you get Nathaniel's cure?"

"Yeah, we did," Ray said. "Believe it or not, Prometheus was the one to give it to us."

"And I scanned it, it really is the cure," Gideon said. "Go ahead, give it to him."

"She can do that?" asked Tatsu.

"And much more," Sara smirked. "I really need to wash my feet..."

"Lets give Nate the cure, then I'll get you a bath ready," Ray said.

"Aww, Ray..." Sara cooed. The rest of the present team fake-gagged.

Then, they shot off to the med-bay, and found Nate, still unconscious.

"Wait, where's Young Stein?" asked Amaya.

"We took him back," Jax said.

"He was quite the ass-hat," Stein sneered.

However, he would not be able to revisit the present day without something else there, due to his conversation with his younger self...

Suddenly, Ray injected Nate with the serum... he shot up instantly. Tatsu immediately started sobbing with joy.

"NATHANIEL!" she screamed, hugging her protege.

"T-Tatsu?" he asked wearily. "How..How long was I out?"

"A few hours," Amaya said. "I'll go tack Mick to his room."

She then grabbed Mick bridal-style and wandered off to his room.

"You held yourself together kid, well done," Floyd smiled.

"Thanks, I guess," Nate said. "I...I feel amazing. I just thought I should say that."

The Legends all chuckled. They could tell already that Nate and Tatsu would make great members.

But, as for Leonard and Kendra...

Their lives may never be the same after tonight.

Hope you guys enjoyed! As a way of trying to apologize for being so late, I wanna confirm a few things about my Earth-X upcoming crossover for this fic.

- The Earth-X versions of Adrian Chase and Barry Allen will be making an appearance.
- Nate will be a focus character of the crossover, as well as Caitlin Snow.
- I will not be using Iris West.
- The Freedom Fighters will be very different, with Ray Terril and Leo Snart not existing in this.
- Jefferson Pierce is still making an appearance as one of the main heroes.

And finally...

- Another Legend will join the team: it will either be Thea Queen, Alex Danvers, Slade Wilson, or Jesse Quick.

Hope this gets you all excited! See ya in the next chapter: we're meeting Zari Tomaz! :D
