Authors note: Kid Flash/Wally is 15, this is based on season one. For your information; okay I know Wally is really not abused in DC Comics or the T.V show, but I just find it so addicting to write about! But if you don't like it please don't read.

Chapter 1

It started off as a normal day until Flash came running into the cave hysteric. He was speeding throughout the cave making a mess everywhere.

Kaldur watched the hysteric speedster "Can we help you with something Flash?" He asked politely.

Flash stopped momentarily "Anyone seen Wally?" Then started the search again. They all shook their heads or murmured "No."

Kaldur sighed "When did you last see him?"

Flash stopped looking thoughtful "Let me see,...we had just finished a battle with Captain Boomerang..."

Flashback (excuse the pun)

"Woah!...watch it Boomerang your going to mess up my beautiful face." Kid Flash said narrowly missing a hit in the face with a boomerang. He ran right at Captain Boomerang while he was busy dealing with the Flash and hit him head on.

It knocked Captain Boomerang against a wall throwing him unconscious. Kid Flash smiled cockily "Oh ya who got the bad guy, I did!" Flash smiled at his nephew and rolled his eyes. The wind had started to pick up which caused a newspaper to blow in Wally's face "Awe that completely killed the moment!" He whined as he looked at the paper.

Oh no, no, no, no! He thought, and he paled visibly, he threw the paper away from him and ran off. Flash looked at the paper on the ground and picked it up wondering what scared his nephew, on the front page was a picture of Wally's father. It read: Rudolph West released from prison after being charged with child abuse of his son, Wallace West. While interviewed all he had to say was this "I have changed, I'm a new man and I'm going to get my son back."... Flash put down the paper. He thought Wally needed some time to cool down, so left him. Soon Flash went searching for him when he didn't come home, so he went to the cave to look there.

End flashback

Flash told the team all of this but left out why Wally's dad was in Jail. The team had listened intently but looked confused afterward.

Artemis stared at Flash "Why is Wally's dad in prison, anyway?" Robin already knowing the answer sunk down in his chair. Flash looked at Robin for help, but Robin just shrugged. Flash sighed, he knew Wally wouldn't want them to know but he hoped it would inspire them to help, might as well get it over with.

"Wally's dad was in prison for abusing Wally until he was 12 years old." Flash mumbled out and looked at the team.

Kaldur looked down, Artemis had her arms crossed staring at the floor in anger feeling guilty for not seeing this, Superboy had his fists clenched in anger, Zatanna sat there and shocked, so many questions popping into her head. M'gann shook her head "All those scars...I thought they were from battle." She put her head in her hands and started crying.

Flash sighed "Will you help me look for him?" Kaldur nodded and proceeded to search, followed by the rest of the team. Each going off in another direction to expand the search.

"Ugh my head." Wally groaned, he looked around. The place was cold and damp and it looked like a hospital, white walls, white floors, light green curtains that could surround him giving him privacy if needed, and a sterile smell. But the only difference was instead of a bed he was on a metal table that forced him to be in a standing position. His hands were bound to the table by a metal band, same with his legs. He tested them, vibrating his molecules but he was not making progress. This isn't going to be good, he thought.

He was immediately on alert when the door opened, then the Joker walked in wearing a doctors uniform. Kid Flash was surprised to see this Gotham villain but glared "They arrest people who are impersonating doctors." He growled at the clown. The Joker grinned "I wouldn't be making your captor mad if I were you."

He snorted "Your already mad." Joker held up his finger to argue but let it drop down "Hmmm...your right." He laughed hysterically "Oh you are so much more fun than the Boy Wonder, never really gave much of a show if you ask me!"

Wally rolled his eyes "What do you want Joker?" Joker brought out a crowbar.

"Since I love seeing fear in your eyes, I think I will tell you my master plan while we play my little game." Joker sneered, Wally glared at him, this will be his least favorite game by far.

Wally tried to prepare as Joker swung the crowbar at his side, Wally grunted in pain as ribs cracked, but luckily none broke. He had a feeling his luck would run out soon.

"Now here's the plan, I use you to lure Boy Wonder, he comes but by the time he gets here you are dead, that way I break his spirit and body." Joker grinned and cackled at his plan

"It will never work." He was worried his friend would come after him but be knew Robin would suspect it and be prepared. Joker smiled "Won't he want to save poor Wally, yes I know your identity but that's all I'm afraid." He sighed dramatically "You're very hard to find. All I found was your name and school, very disappointing I'll find more later." Joker sighed and rolled out a video camera "Now say hi, because we are going live right now!"

"We are getting a message from an unknown source." Robin told the team, everyone crowded around the computer, Flash ran in with a Batman behind him.

"No sign of him, did you guys find anything?"

Artemis mumbled over her shoulder. "no we didn't but we have a message, it might be something." Batman and Flash walked over while Robin answered the message.

Joker smiled at the team through the camera "Hello mini heroes! Are you ready to watch my little game show?" He moved aside to show Kid Flash, strapped to a metal table. Robin lowered his head, he knew how this would end he had played the game before.

"Oh no.."Flash's eyes widened as he saw who had his nephew.

Joker took the crowbar and went over to Kid Flash, he brought the crowbar down on Kid Flash's arm until he heard a snap. Wally bit his lip holding back a scream. "Don't come get me it's a trap he's just-" they watched as Wally was hit repeatedly over the head, causing him to let out a horrible scream but it died down as he was unconscious. "That's all folks! Afraid I'll have to come back when Flashy Boy is more cooperative, or not, I might just kill him." And the video was gone. Flash fell back in a chair and put his head in his hands. The team knowing he wanted to be alone left him while they went to search for Wally.

Wally had woken up, with a painful bump on his head. He saw Joker sitting near his metal bed looking at him annoyed "I guess no more videos for you, I'll just tell them your dead and they will come anyway." Wally noticed that while he was knocked out he had somehow been placed in his normal clothes, his mask was gone and everything.

Great just what he needed. He looked again he was in a short sleeve shirt with jeans, but wait short sleeve meant his scars were showing! He quickly glances down seeing the obvious scars, Joker followed his gaze and raised an eyebrow.

"Well I didn't do that , hmmm they would have healed up if they were from when you had your powers, wouldn't they?" He pondered "These must of happened before you got them." Joker grinned seeing Wally's discomfort. "Well only one explanation, you were abused just like me, oh don't glare I just recently found all your past records so I know, but it's obvious anyway. Well I guess we are just alike now aren't we? Yes my father abused me too, poor little Wally just wanting to be loved. How sad for us both but don't worry I've had a change of heart, that's what I'm calling it anyway."

Wally glared "I am nothing like you!" Wally snapped.

Joker grinned "You would have made an excellent villain, still would. Okay this is my little change of heart, how about this, you become a villain and I let you live."
