A Snoopy Christmas
-Christmas Eve 2021-
"It's finally here," Rip said, opening up a communication network to all the Legends; since getting Tantu back and failing at Lian Yu there had been many small fluxes the Legends had covertly handled, but they were all waiting for this day – for Christmas Eve. The only reason Rip hadn't jumped to it right away was because every small flux was important to fix too, he had to do this chronologically. "This is not going to be a silent night. You have a couple of hours until the Kraken is released."
"We know," all the voices came back to Rip, who had been persistent on the whole Atlantis-releasing-the-Kraken-on-Japan ordeal.
"Report on getting a Zap Tunnel in Japan?" Rip asked.
"Kara and Barry thought it was a good idea when I mentioned it," Laurel said. "It's set up and waiting – we might need to get them to the right location in Japan but makes it ten times easier."
"You're going to need to let Barry go through a few plans before suggesting the Totems. We don't want it to seem like this was pre-planned," Miranda added in.
"Good idea," Ava spoke.
"Ray, you got to be the one to suggest Totems," Rip added in. "It will be more believable from the person who helped tracked them all down."
"I'll get to Japan; lucky Lois is here to be with Lucy and Brandon. This pregnancy's not been easy on her," Ray replied, glad Lucy and Clark had come to Gotham for Christmas. "Although Jason's not making things too easy either."
"Is Morgan with you by any chance?" Rip asked, not believing he was banking on Morgan Belle to help not make a new flux during this time.
"Yes, why?" Ray asked.
"Get him on Jason. We don't want something happening too early due to these fluxes," Rip said.
"I agree, there are things in motion with that boy even we can't help with," Rose added
"Fine be mysterious, you two," Ray stated.
"Gideon, close out the coms," Rip said, confident his Legends now knew the plan and then looked at his watch. "Now, we wait."
"Should we tell the Legends about Jason?" Jonas asked, having sat in, listening.
"No sweetie," Miranda spoke, with a shake of her head. "Jason's drama is after the war and has nothing to do with us."
"As Rose said, we can't help with that – it needs to happen," Rip added to his son, who nodded. But Jonas made a face. "What's wrong, Jonas?"
"Just something I have been thinking about," Jonas voiced. "Does Lucy really need to die giving birth? It just seems so unfair to take Lois's sister away from her and soon after for her to go through the drama with Jason. It nearly broke her." Rip nodded, knowing his son had a point. "And Ray has been helping us and due to that he hasn't had as much time with his wife before losing her."
"Lucy Lane's survival shouldn't affect the timeline negatively," Gideon said before Rip could say anything.
"It would really only take a nudge in one direction or another to make Lucy survive," Miranda added.
Rip sighed.
"Okay, for Ray," Rip said with a grimace. "While they are taking care of Japan, we will nudge certain things in certain directions to save Lucy's life." Jonas gave a smile at that, glad he could do one thing.

"Christmas bells, those Christmas bells," Amelia sang under her breath as she walked out of one of the rooms in her downstairs apartment of the Penthouse. She paused as she saw Star, Romana, Alura, and Nora sitting on the floor of the living room with a board game between them.
"Aunt Amelia," Nora said, waving at Amelia who waved at her niece.
"Why are you four playing down here?" Amelia asked – they usually played in their rooms or the game room.
"Mama and Aunt Lena up starss," Alura said.
"Upstairs?" Amelia asked. The two four-year-olds, while a bit chatty now, still messed up words.
"Yes," Star said with a nod. "We figured it would be better to play down here. The two have taken up the entire living room and talking loudly on phones. We didn't want to be in the way."
"I guess I should check that out," Amelia said. "You four good on your own?"
"We've got them," Romana smiled, giving her aunt a nod and Amelia went up the stairs.
The living room, as her nieces had said, was completely taken over with papers all over the place – Lena was at one spot, standing up and pacing and talking loudly on the phone, while Kara was in her normal spot on the couch – but the TV wasn't on, and she was on another phone. A laptop was on her lap and she was typing at the same time.
"Thank you," Kara was saying before hanging up.
"Did you finish all of Beautiful Star Trek?" Amelia asked.
"Not yet," Kara said. "I got to Kayla guest staring as a Vulcan named K'El. That was weird." Amelia blinked at this one. "But we're taking a break to do this."
"What is this?" Amelia asked as Lena also hung up the phone.
"We're expanding our Christmas charity," Lena explained.
"I need a little more," Amelia said, shaking her head.
"Every year, both STAR Co and L-Corp make sure all the kids in all the meta homes across the country get a gift. This year we're expanding it to make sure every kid affected by this war gets a gift," Kara explained. "We've been working on this for months. It's a lot of people – especially when you put in other countries affected by Atlantis. I mean we barely stopped the Bahamas from flooding the other week."
"Karen single-handedly stopped an attack on Italy itself too, last week," Amelia mused.
"Not to mention what they did to both the Nile and the Mississippi River," Lena added in; Amelia gave a nod there. Atlantis kept on attacking and even with Christmas coming up, she knew everyone in the League was on alert. "So, we need a lot more donations."
"STAR Gaming and Toys have donated as much as we possibly can and we even added personal money into it," Kara added. "And so did Lena, but it's just a lot. I've been contacting toy companies around the world to get them to join in and so far we've been successful in getting donations, both toys and money, to help."
"And I am calling as many contacts as both STAR Co and L-Corp has between government officials and other millionaires and billionaires," Lena continued. "But we're still coming up short. It's Christmas Eve. We don't have much more time. At the moment the only way we're going to reach our goal is if we make up the difference."
"Well I'm not a millionaire, but since I make a good salary and Winn does and we live with Kara and Barry we can add a couple of thousand," Amelia said to a smile from the two. "Maybe you should consider asking mom?"
"Cat? Yes she would definitely donate," Kara agreed.
"Well, yes, but I meant ask her to get a quick story up on it. Ask Clark too with the Daily Planet," Amelia explained. "Give a place to donate. A lot of small donations can be just as good as one big one."
"Not a bad idea," Kara said, nodding at her sister-in-law. The two billionaires hadn't thought of small donations. "I'll contact both Cat and Clark. Lena, continue on the millionaires."
"Glad to help," Amelia said. "Text me where to send the donation. Me and Crystal are doing some last-minute Christmas shopping." Amelia gave them a small smile. "Christmas bells, those Christmas bells…" she then continued
"What is that?" Lena asked as she looked for another number.
"I got a Christmas song stuck in my head. Been singing it all night," Amelia said as the elevator opened and she walked in. Giving a wave to the two as the doors closed.
"Isn't that the one about Snoopy?" Lena asked.
"Yeah Snoopy Christmas or something like that," Kara said with a nod as Lena continued looking for someone else to call. Kara started to hum the song, too, as she called up Cat and so did Lena.
"Damn, she got it in my head now too," Lena said to a chuckle from Kara as Cat picked up and Kara started to explain about their charity to her and asked for a donation and a quick article on CatCo.

Barry himself was getting the toys they already had to different Meta Homes and other places where kids displaced by the war were. Right now, he was in the first meta home putting the gifts under the tree.
"The kids will love this," Eliza said with a smile.
"They will," Zor added, coming out with a hot mug. "Hot Chocolate?"
"Thanks," Barry said, taking the cup from his father-in-law. "Are you coming to our Penthouse tonight or tomorrow?" They were doing a Christmas Eve and Christmas Day parties at the Penthouse, after all; they did it every year. Kara and Barry had been talking about next year moving the party to one of their bigger places.
"Tonight yes, not tomorrow for me," Eliza said.
"I'll be staying here with Eliza tomorrow as well," Zor said, giving Eliza a smile and Barry decided not to comment. He knew the two had some type of relationship they didn't really call dating – it was more like an unofficial married couple these days, "especially since Connor is spending both days on Beautiful Earth."
Barry was shocked by that and coughed up the Hot Chocolate, some of it going to his nose. "Really?" Barry asked.
"Rae always comes here. It's his turn apparently," Zor said. "Will it be weird when Connor's father-in-law is technically you?" Barry tried not to laugh at that. It was true; Beautiful Barry had technically adopted Rae who he claimed as his half-sister.
"Not the weirdest thing…" Barry paused as his communicator binged. "What's up Gideon?" Barry asked into the communicator.
"Atlantis is attacking Japan with a type of giant sea creature," Gideon responded, sending Barry's com a video: there was King Arthur with some of his forces, including Aqualad and Aquagirl's alternate, but there was also a giant creature attacking the city. It was huge – bigger than the buildings. It had some type of hard shell around it and long tentacles.
"What's going on?" Eliza asked.
"I think Atlantis just released the Kraken…" Barry groaned and then spoke into the coms. "All Justice League get to Japan now!" Barry looked around for a moment but didn't see any meta kids so summoned his Speed Force suit. "Black Canary, good call on putting a zap tunnel there." He didn't waste another moment before running out of Meta Home.
"What's a Kraken?" Zor asked.
"Mythological sea monster," Eliza said. "Turn on the news." Zor gave a nod and went to the TV.
-Karry Universe-
When Barry arrived in Japan Mon, Zari, and Kayla were already there; Mon was running at the monster, only for his hits to be deflected and him thrown back. Kayla grabbed him before he could hit the floor. The small Atlantis forces clearly were there to observe.
"This will be the end of your JL base!" Arthur called out as he saw Barry.
"I think that guy has some screws loose," Barry groaned, shaking his head but decided not to have a chat with Arthur this time as he ran at the Kraken. His plan was to phase through to take the beast down fast, but as he hit into the beast he didn't phase. Instead he was pushed back and stopped himself from falling by using arm tornados. "What the hell?"
"This must be some type of magical monster born before magic was dead on this world," it was Ray arriving in his ATOM armor as he started shooting at the monster. "Your powered by one Force of the Universe, the Speed Force – this by one of the other six, the Sphere of the Gods specifically. You're not going to phase through it."
"I didn't know you knew so much about the Seven Forces of the Universes," Barry said as he started running and taking people out of the way of the monster's path – luckily, many had already fled.
"I've been studying up," Ray said a little too fast but Barry didn't take note of it.
"Okay, if we can't phase we can still toss out lightning strikes. Speed Force lightning bolts should still hurt it. Liberty Belle, Velocity, you two here. We need all three of us," Barry said.
"I'm here," Jesse said.
"Me too. Had to drop Sabrina off in DC with dad," Wally said quickly. "But I got here."
"Three-fold strike. Static," Barry said, seeing the man in the sky on his flying board. "Join in with your own lightning strike with us."
"On it," Static said into the coms as the three speedsters ran around the monster and then, one by one, let out a lightning strike. Static joined in at the same time. The monster gave a roar for a second but the lightning disappeared and the monster continued.
"Not enough," Jesse said.
"It did feel it," Wally commented.
"We need a lot more Speed Force energy than the three of us can produce," Jesse said. "Even adding Static in didn't help."
"Should have had the Speed Force canon Canary Earth has made up," Barry commented as he ran. "How many Kryptonians do I have here?"
"I'm here," Kayla voice spoke.
"Here," Clark commented.
"I'm here," Karen had appeared, in her Power Girl suit. "And I got Power Dog with me," KJ barked happily at Karen's side, wasting no time in trying to attack this Kraken.
"Let's try a heat vision attack," Barry said. "All together!" All the Kryptonians sent out heat vision, but the monster used its tail and tossed it back at them. The Kryptonian having to stop to dodge.
"Not even a scratch," Karen commented.
"Try freeze breathing it and then punching," Barry said as the Kryptonian switched to freeze breath. It seeming to freeze part of the monster for a second but then it continued to move, and the punching did nothing. "Damn, this Kraken is hard."
"I like that name for it," Clark said, taking a breath as Wonder Woman's warrior cry was heard and the woman flew right at the Kraken, sword out, and slashed at it with force. The sword actually made a wound that healed in seconds and then Wonder Woman herself was thrown off. Barry saw arrows flying at the Kraken, but the Kraken didn't even feel it.
"I am opening the floor to ideas," Barry said, trying to think at speed for something new but he was coming up to nothing.
"The Totems," Ray's voice was heard in coms, and Barry had to pause.
"Vixen, think you can summon something that can let you take this on?" Barry asked as he started running more innocent bystanders out of the way. The Justice League was trying to keep the Kraken at bay and stop as much destruction as they could, but their attacks were doing little to help, and buildings were crumbling as they ran out of ideas.
"I don't know, what?" Tantu asked; Barry could see her and her Totem power. Her husband wasn't with her, probably taking care of their daughter Maya.
"Not one Totem, all the Totems," Ray insisted. "The Totems can combine their powers to make a great shield of protection or a powerful warrior. In legends, they combined to kill the demon Mallus. They could take this on."
"It is possible," Tantu said.
"The Totems are powered by the Seven Forces – one of them made all the Totem gems and the other six each powered one. The air is powered by the Speed Force, I know. Together all Seven Forces are united," Barry said, remembering the history of the Totems the Speed Force told him when she had summoned him to help heal a hole on New Justice. "I like! What totems do we have here from our Earth? Sorry, Zari but we need our Air Totem."
"Understood," Zari said, using her Totem to try to keep the Kraken back. She knew this anyway.
"Spirit," Tantu said.
"Fire," Mick's voice was heard, and Barry could see the flames heading at the Kraken. Len and Lisa were with him, the siblings using their freeze and gold gun respectfully as Mick used his Totem.
"Water," Thea's voice spoke, and water could be seen coming down from a building.
"Earth," it was Ava and Barry was surprised. "Came here with Winn." Barry could see his brother-in-law dressed as a DEO agent trying to use his power to blow things up on the Kraken, but the Kraken was not even feeling it.
"We still need the Air and Death," Barry said, not hearing either Lena or Amelia commenting they were here. The two weren't in the Justice League, after all, or in the DEO. Japan was a little too far for him to ask Kara to send them. "Gideon, send a message to the two. We need them here now!"
"On it, creator," Gideon spoke.
-Karry Universe-
"Cat and Clark got that up fast," Kara said, looking at their fundraising on the website; once it was up on both news platforms, other platforms had picked it up too and it was starting to go viral. "Amelia was right. The small donations are coming in. I'm transferring the funds as fast as I can to our partners to get toys out to everyone in time."
"And I've got a couple more donations," Lena said, smiling to herself.
"Ms. Creator, Lady Canary," Gideon's voice spoke up.
"Lady Canary? Since when does your home A.I. call me Lady Canary?" Lena asked. She had gotten use to the hero name she had been given, christened it due to the Air Totem's power looking similar to a Canary cry at times.
"Not our home A.I.," Kara said. "The League A.I. has connected."
"The Justice League is having trouble in Japan," Gideon continued, and the TV turned on, showing the Kraken and the League fighting. "All Totem Bearers need to get to Japan. The plan is to combine their powers."
"I'll get to the zap tunnel as fast as I can," Lena said, summoning her hero outfit from the piece of jewelry and pushing her Totem to summon air so she could fly and left via the balcony. Kara heard her mumbling the words to the Christmas song Amelia had mentioned before and chuckled to herself.
…
Amelia and Crystal were walking out of the store, laughing. Both were holding a bag. "I love Christmas Eve shopping. Look at all the panicking last minute shoppers," Crystal said with a laugh. "The hustle to get that last perfect gift."
"Or just people watch," Amelia commented back with a smile, putting an arm around Crystal. "Did you get Ava something nice?"
"Already wrapped. It's Caitlin who I had the problem with," Crystal remarked. "Although lately Ava has been… more distance, more at the office."
"Well there is a war. The DEO is at the forefront of it and very stretched," Amelia mused as her phone went off. "Weird…" Amelia mumbled, seeing the number was STAR Labs, but no one was at the labs. "Must be multiverse. Well it's Christmas and I ain't answering." Amelia rejected the call as she and Crystal continued to walk, but stopped when it rang again
"Oh geez," Amelia said taking the phone. "What world wants what now?"
"This world needs you," it was the voice of Gideon over her phone now.
"Why am I surprised you can make phone calls?" Amelia asked, never having been called by Gideon before.
"Atlantis has released the Kraken onto Japan," Gideon stated.
"Did you say Kraken?" Amelia asked, looking around and noticing several people had phones out and seemed to be mumbling.
"The Totem Bearers are planning on combining powers to take it on, but they need you," Gideon continued.
"I'm not exactly close to STAR. It will take me some time to get there," Amelia remarked, looking around.
"Time is important here," Gideon said.
"Well… I got an idea," Amelia said, hanging up as she saw Crystal beside her. "Come on, we need to go. Your ice bridges are the best way to get to STAR and fast."
"Kraken?" Crystal asked as the two rushed for the exit.
"I guess we'll see," Amelia mumbled as they both found a place to change into their hero outfits, Michelle having made one for Crystal as well. Amelia putting her arms around Crystal and connecting her Death Totem to her outfit so both hands were free as Crystal started making an ice bridge to get them to STAR and the zap tunnel. "Christmas bells those Christmas bells ringing through the land," Amelia sang again as they moved.
-Karry Universe-
Barry, Jesse, and Wally had found a place away from the Kraken for the Totem Bearers to come to while the rest of the League held the creature off. Tantu, Mick, Thea, and Ava were already there and waiting; Lena was the next one to show up, literally flying in and landing near the four. "Where's Amelia?" Tantu asked.
"She went out shopping last I saw her," Lena said.
"We can't do this without the Death Totem - without the Death Totem we're incomplete," Tantu said.
"Like we were during Crisis," Mick pointed out, but Tantu ignored this.
"Give her some more time," Barry said, wondering if he should run back to America and get her himself.
He didn't need to worry for much longer as an ice bridge came up and Crystal and Amelia jumped down.
"Mind if I join in?" Crystal asked.
"We can definitely use you, Ice Maidan," Barry said. "Come with me. We're going to try to cage the Kraken to one area until the Totem Bearers can take it down." Barry gave the Totem Bearers a nod as he indicated for Crystal to follow him. "Liberty Belle, Velocity, keep the public at bay so the Totem Bearers can do their thing," Barry ordered; several Japanese citizens were still staring, pointing, and filming. Since the area they were in was currently safe, none of them were running.
"Got it," Wally said back, and the two speedsters came to a stop in front of those filming and held up their hands, telling the public to remain back. "Any chance you speak Japanese?"
"No," Jesse said with a shake of her head.
"I got it," Karen said, landing nearby. "Modotte kudasai, watashitachiha buki ni dōryoku o ataete ori, supēsu ga hitsuyōdesu," she spoke, surprising the speedsters. It worked though. citizens stepped back. "I told them we were powering up a weapon and needed space."
"You speak Japanese?" Jesse asked.
"I am fluent in Italian and French so figured I would continue," Karen said, with a shrug. "For a Kryptonian, learning other Earth languages is pretty easy."
As the public backed away, the Totem Bearers circled around each other and started taking each other hands. "For this to work, we need to be as one, connected in all," Tantu started.
"We know," they all said together.
"We have done this before," Thea pointed out.
"Has no one unlocked her Crisis memories yet?" Amelia asked and shared a look with the other four Totem Bearers while Tantu raised an eyebrow. "Ah later. Let's do this."
All the Totem Bearers closed their eyes as the Totems on them started to glow. "Think pure," Tantu mumbled as light came between them, joining in the center as the Totem Bearers started to hover.
"What the hell is this song in my head?" Thea asked.
"Sorry, I've had it stuck in my head all day," Amelia said.
"Me too," Lena said.
"Now I can't get it out," Ava said.
The light surrounded them as Jesse, Wally, Karen, and the bystanders looked on. "Are they becoming…?" Karen let the question hang as they saw the figure forming from the Totem Bearers.
"Yep," Wally and Jesse answered anyway.
…
Barry and the rest of the League were trying to keep citizens and remaining buildings safe and keep the Kraken at bay; Arthur and his Atlantis guards seemed content to watch and laugh, but poised themselves, ready to attack if needed.
That was until a shadow came across the field and, jumping in front of them was a giant white familiar dog.
"Is that Snoopy?" Diana asked.
"Yeah," Barry said as the giant Snoopy jumped at the Kraken as Karen, Wally, and Jesse came running. "Where are the Totem Bearers?"
"That's them!" Wally said pointing Snoopy.
"Yeah, that makes sense," Zari mumbled but didn't elaborate on it as she muttered 'Beebo' to herself.
"You've got to be kidding me," Barry said, trying not to laugh but he could see some chuckles from many people in the League. That was when he saw Arthur and his forces start to move forward. "Crystal, create a blockage with Citizen Cold. Firestorm, let out some fire as well to retain them. Black Canary, we could use your scream."
Firestorm was first hitting the fire into the Atlanteans, Crystal and Leonard Snart both made an ice wall to blockade while Laurel came over with her Canary Cry, forcing the Atlanteans to stop. A couple of arrows hit into some of them, forcing the ones hit to go back towards the water to heal.
Sara came up with her bo staff out, hitting it into Arthur's trident.
"White Canary back off," Barry said, coming up and pushing Sara away, taking her place in front of the King. "You released your monster. Now we have ours. How about we let the monsters fight it out to see who wins?"
"That is a centuries old sea creature!" Arthur stated. "Your giant land creature stands no chance and once it is dead, I will kill you and destroy this JL," Arthur stated and, as if to prove a point, he went to attack Barry with his trident, but Barry moved out of the way.
"Seriously, what are you not getting about fastest man on this Earth?" Barry groaned. "Can we talk this out? I think you don't understand exactly what we are."
"There will be no talking," Arthur called, going to attack again but this time aiming at Sara. Before Sara could respond with her own defense, Barry took her, and they ran to the other side of the ice wall Crystal had made.
"You realize if any of the Totem Bearers ever hear you said, 'let the monsters fight' they will be the one killing you, right?" Sara asked once the two were away. It seemed Arthur had decided to see who would win the fight between the giant Snoopy and Kraken anyway.
"Yeah," Barry said, looking over at the King of Atlantis. New Justice had said such nice things about him, and the one Barry had met when they did the photography for New Justice had been a standup guy as well; Barry had a feeling there was more here than he knew.
"Come on," Barry sighed, and turned to see the fighting again. Snoopy had been knocked back as the Kraken let out a roar.
"Come on Ava, you got this," Crystal called out.
"Lena!" Leonard called out. "Kick some ass like last night in bed."
"Seriously?" Barry turned to Len. "Remember to use superhero names and keep your sex life out of the cheer," Barry said, hoping no one but Justice League heard that as Snoopy attacked back. "Come, on you're my little sister in there." Barry yelled out.
"What happened to using superhero names?" Sara asked.
"I said little sister, not her name," Barry said as Winn called out support too, but used 'Phantom Justice' for Amelia, her given hero name.
There were several more punches thrown with the Justice League cheering on their Totem Bearers. Finally, Snoopy was flung into the air but seemed to be controlled as it headed right for the Kraken, doing a giant body slam. There was a loud crunching sound and the Kraken seemed to be crushed as a crater was formed and, in a puff, the giant Snoopy was gone.
"It's… dead," one of the Atlantean guards called out and Barry saw their shock.
"Should we fight, my Lord?" Kaldur asked.
"We don't have enough men. We must retreat," Arthur stated as the small number of Atlanteans quickly started to head for the water.
"Hey Arthur!" Barry called before Arthur could leave and Arthur turned. "Merry Christmas." Arthur gave Barry a confused look before jumping into the water himself.
Barry turned to the crater; Winn was helping Amelia up and Len had Lena in his arms. Crystal was lifting Ava out of the crater and giving her a kiss. JT had Thea and Oliver was also checking over his sister; Zari had been helping Tantu.
"Worst… orgy… ever," Mick groaned from the crater.
"Get up here, you big log," Lisa chuckled, and Len helped his friend up.
"Are we not fighting?" Diana asked from the top of the crater.
"No, the Atlanteans retreated. I think the Totem Bearers bought us a silent night," Barry said, putting an arm around his sister who laughed. "Although you could have turned into a giant Beebo."
"I thought Beebo was copyright STAR Co.?" Amelia chuckled, which caused many people to laugh.
"Okay, but before we can get back to our Christmas, it's clean up time. Supers, get this giant body out of here. Firestorm, Heatwave melt the ice wall. Everyone else, look around, make sure there are no injured citizens around and do our best to clean up some of this destruction," Barry instructed as the Justice League started on his order.
Barry looked around at the city around them; it might have been a win but there was a lot of damage done and Barry was sure lives had been lost.
-Karry Universe-
Later that night, the main floor of the Penthouse was packed with people. The six Totem Bearers were on the couch, leaning into one another while Mick grunted but he seemed happy as the girls leaned against him. Everyone had a plate of food with them – the Penthouse was so packed with Justice League members and family; it was hard to move. Even Clark and Ray had decided to take their wives and kids from Gotham and come to the Penthouse.
"Lena!" Kara called, coming, and grabbing Lena off the couch. "We have some announcements to make."
"Okay," Lena said as Kara called for silence.
"Hi everyone!" Kara called, grabbing everyone's attention, "First off, Barry and I have decided next year we'll be doing Christmas celebrations at either the Lake House or our house at Disney!" There were some cheers to that, since both places were bigger than the Penthouse.
"I vote Florida!" Kara and Barry weren't sure who yelled it but there were some agreements.
"On another note," Lena now spoke up. "We're pleased to announce we hit our fundraising goal. Toys are getting out there to all those kids affected by the war." There were more cheers to that as well. "With some focus now on Tokyo after today's events."
"And I think it's time for the kids to go to bed," Barry added; It was getting late, and Barry noticed all the kids who were at the party. Their own and their nieces and nephews were starting to fall asleep. There was a moan from the kids. "If you don't get to bed Santa won't come."
"Karry!" It was Alura who said it. Finally getting the double-R sound right. Her twin copied her and several of the kids joined and then the adults started chanting.
"And I know the right song," Amelia said. "Gideon, let's go Snoopy."
The music started and Barry laughed as he started to sing. "The news had come out in the First World War. The bloody Red Baron was flying once more. The Allied Command ignored all of its men. And called on Snoopy to do it again." Barry sang, practically laughing as he sang, and Kara finally joined in.
"Was the night before Christmas, 40 below. When Snoopy went up in search of his foe. He spied the Red Baron, fiercely they fought. With ice on his wing Snoopy knew he was caught." Kara sang with Barry. "Christmas bells those Christmas bells. Ringing through the land. Asking peace of all the world. And good will to man."
"The Barons had Snoopy dead in his sight. He reached for the trigger to pull it up tight. Why he didn't shoot, well, we'll never know. Or was it the bells from the village below." Barry put an arm around Kara, his other hand on her baby bump. "Christmas bells those Christmas bells. Ringing through the land. Bringing peace to all the world. And good will to man."
"The Baron made Snoopy fly to the Rhine. And force him to land behind the enemy lines. Snoopy was certain that this was the end. When the Baron cried out, 'Merry Christmas, mein friend!'," Barry smiled, and Kara had to smile as well as they continued. "The Baron then offered a holiday toast. And Snoopy, our hero, saluted his host. And then with a roar they were both on their way. Each knowing they'd meet on some other day."
Barry was aware Clark had been filming but didn't care as they went to finish the song: "Christmas bells those Christmas bells. Ringing through the land. Bringing peace to all the world. And good will to man. Christmas bells those Christmas bells. Ringing through the land. Bringing peace to all the world. And good will to man."
The song finished and those gathered clapped. "Got it for the continuing Karry Karaoke videos!" Clark called to a laugh from many.
"Bed, now!" Barry called at this, getting all the kids and even the guests all upstairs; they had some blankets and pillows on the floor of Star and Romana's room, and Alura and Nora's room, so all the kids could sleep while the adult stayed up later. Parents would grab their kids when they were ready to go. Krypto, Porthos, and Hex joined the kids in sleep – probably wanting to get away from the crowd downstairs.
"Everyone down?" Kara asked, having come up the stairs after Barry was done.
"Yep," Barry said kissing Kara and then her stomach. "Sometime next month we'll have our 5th and then next year another little one for Christmas."
"Can't wait," Kara said kissing her husband.
"Us too," many chorused at that, the couple laughing at the cry.
-Karry Universe-
On the Waverider, Rip was looking over the timeline, smiling.
"Well, besides an increase in Snoopy sales the timeline is straightened out here," Rip said after Jonas had played the video Clark took of Kara and Barry singing Snoopy Christmas.
"This one worked out," Miranda said. "And we managed to nudge things in the right direction to save Lucy."
"I am sending the locations and times of all the small fluxes to the Legends from now until the end of the war," Gideon said. "That was the last major flux to be concerned about."
"Good idea, getting this war to the correct ending is going to be the biggest challenge ever, though," Rip said, knowing that the end of the war was definitely an uncertainty.
"Before we concentrate on finding a way to end the war properly, there is one more thing we have to look at. It's not connected to the war, but the absence of Kara could cause a flux here as well," Gideon spoke, making the three Hunters look at each other.
"What's that, Gideon?" Miranda asked.
"Galactic Conquest," Gideon reminded the trio, who groaned. "If their return goes wrong, Star Allen's the future superhero Starfire future could be in danger."
"Yes, scan the timeline away from the war and bring us to them," Rip said.
"Once we've finished sending the locations and times to the Legends. We still need them taking care of those small fluxes," Miranda added in.
"I am on it," Gideon said, sending the message to the team, and then moving the ship ahead in the timeline.
