THE WATCHTOWER

February 13TH

Donna and Kaldur were getting ready for their plan when Roy walked in.

Roy: remind me, why did we need to upgrade the bolt for this?

Donna: So, we can escape easier.

Roy: let me guess, more Olympian stuff I won't understand.

Kaldur: correct friend.

Roy: well, if you don't need me, I'll be with Lian.

Donna: thanks for your help, Roy.

Roy: least I could do.

Recognized, Kid Flash B-0-3

Donna: Wally? What are you doing here?

Wally: I'm here to support my girlfriend in her journey

to hell.

Donna: Wally...

Wally: I'm not going to try to stop you, we just need to talk.

Donna: sure. What's wrong?

Wally: I've been having nightmares for the past two years. It's Patrick. Speaking to me. He's saying, I was supposed to die that day. I was supposed to disappear.

Donna: Wally... Patrick made that sacrifice. You don't have to feel guilty about his choice.

Wally: but then he and Artemis would have been married. He would've lived his life! But I was too slow. Like always.

Donna: (she grabbed his arm) you, are Wally West, the man I love. Your kind, selfless, and I love you. You don't need to sacrifice yourself to prove that.

Kaldur: agreed. You are a founding member of this team. I also blamed myself for his death. I almost let Oceanus reactivate the eggs that Patrick sacrificed himself to stop.

Donna pulled the two into a group hug.

Donna: there's nothing we could've done.

Kaldur: for him, we must move on.

THE UNDERWORLD

Hades: are you sure you want this?

Artemis: Yes, I have to see him.

Hades: you'll have to excuse me while I look for his soul.

Artemis: take your time

THE WATCHTOWER

Donna: this is going to hurt. Once my vitals start to go off, pull me out, it should take me to wherever Cassie is.
