Chapter 1

NOTES: You guys know I love writing different possibilities for ships than we have in canon. That being said, I ship mainly WestAllen and Avalance in canon and love Iris and Ava, and for the reason I've said before, I never really add them, because I like to think in my fics, they didn't work out but remained friends. This part of canon I never use it my stories, the same way I don't use any other tv show main pairing.


.

The sky went dark and strong winds hit everywhere. Trees were almost being ripped off the ground, people could barely stand up properly, they were doing their best to hang on and not be thrown away in the air. The ground started shaking and it literally felt like the apocalypse. One worse than what the universe had been through just a few months ago.

A tall figure stood in the middle of the avenue, manipulating it all around him. Around him, blasts of power tried to hit every piece of him as he made his body turn into something like a rock.

- GET DOWN, EVERYONE! – Nia yelled as she tried to hit the destroyer with her powers, but he blocked it, sending it back to them.

J'onn Jonzz, Brainy and Alex Danvers were there with her, helping the best as they could, but it seemed like their efforts were useless.

- Rhama Kan is starting to piss me off! – Brainy said as he tried to use a few of his powers behing Rhama Kan's back.

- Starting? – Alex asked, still trying to shoot Rhama Kan with her special gun.

- At first it was just annoying me, but now we've reached an entire new level!

- Where's Supergirl? – J'onn asked, blocking one of his moves, stopping him from causing another Earthquake.

- Something must have happened – Alex pressed the emergency button on her watch one more time, starting to feel helpless. – She should be here by now...

A red and blue blur flew across the sky and landed in front of Rhama Kan. Kara got up and stared with anger at him, closing her fist and punching him, making him fly 20 feet away.

- I'm sorry I'm late, kryptonite had me busy.

- Are you ok? – Alex asked in a worried tone as she ran closer to Kara.

- Yes. Barry found me and helped me escape the kryptonite jail that Gamemnae put me in... We have back-up, by the way – She pointed at the sky as a ship appeared flying down to them. As soon as it landed, in a parking lot right next to where the mess was happening, it opened and Sara Lance and her team came out of it, ready to fight.

A lightning bolt hit Rhama Kan right in the chest as he ran back in Supergirl's direction, making him fall down. Barry stopped by her side, smiling to her and the others.

- Triple back up, by the way!

Nate, Zari, Mick, Ray, Constantine, Alex, J'onn, Nia, Barry, Kara and Sara surrounded Rhama Kan, all attacking at once, stopping him from getting up. Heat lasers, lightning bolts, dream waves, magic, all of them hit Rhama Khan, and one blast after another, combined, all at once, and it looked like it was working.

The creature boosted his body upwards, blasting a wave of wind explosion towards the heroes, but Barry and J'onn managed to grab them all before they could hit the ground.

- This is not over! – Rhama Kan yelled and disappeared in front of them

They all looked at each other, with worried looks.

- I'm sure is not! – Kara said as she turned to face Barry and Sara – Thank you for the help.

- Anytime. – Barry and looked around in a thoughtful way. Sara approached him.

- I know... – She said reaching for his shoulder – Saving the world together is not the same without him.

Barry looked down, his hand reached for Sara's hand and he squeezed it as thanks for the support. He felt warm inside, just by knowing he was not alone anymore.

A lot had happened since Crisis, his life turned upside down. He felt alone, even being surrounded by people, and the understanding he felt from Sara and the others at that moment, meant a lot. He knew he wasn't the only one feeling like missing Oliver a lot.

But still, it was painful to have those team ups and help each other without his buddy. Kara looked up in the sky, feeling a bit sad but trying not to show it. Things would never be the same without Oliver, she thought.

She knew they had a rough start, when he told her to step aside when Dominators invaded Earth 1, but slowly, they started to become friends. He was there for her when she was feeling the worst. It was when Nazis invaded Earth 1 and they fought together once more. Barry asked for her help and right after everything happened, Oliver and Kara shared stories about their broken hearts, since he also had been through a rough break-up, when Felicity left him because she didn't want to marry him. She was glad they were closer and could really count on each other. She was the one that knew Oliver was Oliver, and Barry was Barry when the mess with the Book of Destiny happened before, and most recently, she felt like he was one of the most important people to her, besides her sister and her super friends in National City. Of course she was close to Barry, but it wasn't the same with Oliver. They had a connection and she would miss it the most.

- But we have to keep fighting... He would want us to. – Kara said as Alex hugged her, comforting her sister. She knew it was hard to lose someone, and Kara had lost too many people in her life, it was not fair.

Far away from National City, the snow storm got worse and worse by the minute and both men kept staring at each other inside the cave. It was getting dark outside, and the only source of light was from the fire pit that Prometheus had built before Oliver finding him.

- What do you mean by Earth needs me? What are you talking about? And how did you end up here?

- Don't tell me you're the same naive guy I met so long ago in another reality... We don't have time for that.

- Answer me! – Oliver insisted, approaching Prometheus, ready to use his fist if necessary.

- Once you rebooted the universe, you gave me a second chance. I had a different life, Oliver. I never killed myself in Lian Yu, never exploded that island. We had our differences, but I ended up following a different path. I lost everything trying to get my vengenace and saw this wasn't the right way of living, all the suffering... So I started helping others and it ended up helping me.

- I was supposed to be dead. Am I dead? Am I a ghost? I don't understand... – Oliver said as he sat down on a rock, trying to make sense of everything.

- No, you're not a ghost. You were brought back thanks to your Spectre form. The Monitor had it all wrong, because he could never foreseen what was about to happen, so it wasn't your time to die yet.

Oliver looked as confused as ever. He scratched his head and got up, feeling as impatient as ever.

- What... What was about to happen? – He was almost afraid of asking, given the look Prometheus gave him.

- After the reboot, a few months later, Earth Prime faced a new threat. Warrior aliens from a planet called Thanagar invaded Earth and all of its heroes tried their best, but failed. Something was missing. They conquered Earth, taking all of their civil rights away, ripping them from their freedom. Humans became their slaves and heroes were imprisioned. In a short time they destroyed everything and everyone that opposed them.

Oliver noticed something on Prometheus voice and thought about it for a few seconds. He looked around, his hands going through his hair and beard that was a bit too long and he was sure something was off. He looked serious at Prometheus, almost grabbing him by the collar of his cape.

- Where are we?

- In the Artic, two years in the future... On Earth 2!

- Earth 2? This is impossible...

- When you rebooted the multiverse, more Earths were also rebooted. I found about it a year later and something brought me here after Earth Prime was conquered, I still don't know what.

- I need... I need to go back. How do I go back? – Now Oliver was definitely impatient, walking from one side of the cave to the other. He made sure his friends, his family, the entire world was safe, and things still went as bad as before? He was trully pissed. If he could bring Monitor back to punch him for not warning it or foreseeing it, he would.

- We need to work on that... But I guess I know someone that can help us.

Prometheus walked outside the cave and stared at the sky. Oliver followed him, looking around confused. His wolves where no where to be found and he wanted to ask a thousand of questions more.

- Where are the wolves? I still don't...

- Shh... – Prometheus lifted his index finger, making Oliver stop talking. – The stars are aligned, don't worry. Just trust me.

Oliver never really met this version of Prometheus before, so it was still a bit hard to really trust him, he thought. Prometheus grabbed something that looked like a compass from his pocket and its pointers started going crazy, pointing everywhere.

- I found this on my pocket when I woke up here, with a note. It told me I was going to understand and know what to do at the right time... Now I get it.

He looked at Oliver and smiled, grabbing him by the arm and pressing a button on the back of the compass.

Suddenly, they vanished from Artic.

Legends, Barry and team Supergirl tried their best to help fix what Rhama Kan did to that parto f the city. It looked like WWIII there, but slowly, they managed to help people who got hurt, fix things that were broken, and make it less apocalyptic.

- It will take a while, but thing will be back to normal.

- I'll ask team Flash to help us. – Barry said as he ran back to fixing al lhe could in super speed.

- I think Gideon can also help us with some things, the Waverider has great technology – Ray said – I'll go there and look for it. – He said as he rushed back to the ship.

- Thank you all for your help – Kara said as she stared at all their friends.

- We've got your back! That's what friends do to each other – Mick said, making everyone look at him in surprise.

- Look at you, Heatwave. You've come such a long way... Being a dad looks good on you. – Sara patted Mick on his back.

- A dad? – Kara looked surprised

- Yes. We went back in time and he found an old high school sweetheart. I don't need to tell you the rest, do I? – Nate smiled as he came closer to them.

- Er... No, please

Kara smiled, feeling really happy for Mick. He indeed came a long way since she met him and he insiste don calling her skirt. The teams decided to split across the town to try to find something that could help them find Rhama Kan, with no success. Sara went back to the Waverider and got in touch with Diggle, Laurel and Dinah, to ask for their help. Diggle was going to do some research in Metropolis, where he was living now and try to reach Superman while Laurel and Dinah, that just had came back to town, were going to do some research in Star City.

Sara sat down at her captain chair, thinking about how tired she felt and how crazy everything got since Crisis. She got up and went to the library, grabbing a picture she took with Oliver right before she died the third time, when they were still together.

- I miss you, Ollie.

- I miss him too – Sara heard Barry's voice saying it.

She turned around and smiled at him, showing him the picture she held in her hands.

- I don't know, if I knew all of this would have happened, I would have enjoyed more of his company, his presence... This seems such a long time ago.

- I know what you mean... Is funny because when I met him, before I knew he was the vigilante, I admired him so much. I thought it was really cool that someone dedicated their lives to help and save others, people he didn't even know. It was a bit annoying the way he reacted when he found out I knew his secret, but I understood it later. And he did his best to help me when I needed. He was always there, sharing what he knew, trying his best to help us... I'll miss that. And I think you're the only one who can actually understand this feeling... You were there from the start with him.

- We have been through a lot. I mean, I know I've said to his alternative version that it was destiny, but... I still feel bad about how it all happened. I hurt many people along the way, I know Ollie was aware he did the same... and he managed to forgive himself later but... I don't know if I'll truly be able to, especially after I lost Laurel.

- Listen... I know is hard. And I won't lie to you and say that it was ok what happened, I mean, Oliver talked to me and I was in no position to judge anyone because I've had my share of wrong doings... Is just that... – Barry approached Sara – One thing I've learned is that we need to learn to forgive ourselves. When I created Flashpoint and learned all I have caused... Cisco's brother, baby Sara becoming baby John... I felt terrible. But I've learned that yes, they were terrible mistakes, I've learned from them, and I needed to forgive myself before anyone else could. Diggle actually told me this. And after Crisis, I could finally understand it. We make mistakes in life, we learn from them; we recognize them and try to do better, so dont beat yourself over what happened. The important thing is that you learned from it and I'm sure Laurel knew you didn't want to hurt her, I'm sure she forgave you...

Sara felt tears forming in her eyes and just went to hug Barry. He understood better than anyone what she had been through and had the right thing to say, as always, since the day she met him. She was glad to have him in her life.

In the Tower, Alex used their computer to try to find anything that was useful; feeling really frustrated because it seemed like Rhama Kan vanished from Earth. Nia and Kara arrived, also confirming they have found nothing.

- I'm afraid something worse is coming... – Kara said

- We'll be ready for it – Nia said while Alex gave up looking at the computer and joined them.

- What exactly happened? With Gamemnae? – Alex said – Are you truly ok? I know what kryptonite does to you.

- I am. I was terrified, but I'm ok now. She tricked me into a place I was sure it was their headquarters. And it was just an abandoned place. William told me about it before, when he went there to check a lead and it was empty. It was the same place, I realised it just when I was already there. And she locked me in a kryptonite cage...

- It's the second time it happened to you in a year... – Nia hugged Kara, still worried she would not be as ok as she told them she was.

- I'll make sure the third one doesn't happen... I'm really glad we thought about creating those emergency devices for everyone. I was hurting but I managed to press it, and Barry answered. He came in and helped me knock her down. I was in a bad shape, so he rushed me out of there and when he went back there to check it, he told me she wasn't there anymore.

- Don't worry, we'll find them. – Alex said as she went back to the computer, with pure anger in her eyes - And she won't never again hurt you or anyone else.

A strong white light covered his eyes and suddenly, like an explosion and he found himself in a different place, with Prometheus by his side. It wasn't snowying anymore; he could see traffic lights, and streets. He was in an unknown city.

- Where are we now?

- Welcome to Blue Valley! – Prometheus said
