x _______________________________________________ Teddy had gathered the nerve to leave his room and go to Billy's. He would knock on the door and ask him if what had happened the other night was actually sincere. There had been something really off about the whole moment...and about the fact that Billy didn't seem to be around much. He was pretty sure that boyfriends were supposed to be around a lot. Not that he'd had one before, but he assumed it was like a girlfriend. Only a boy.
"Billy," he began as a practice, speaking under his breath, "Are you actually my boyfriend? Or was that some weirdo thing because that music was playing?"
He raised his knuckles to knock, repeating the question under his breath. Nobody answered. He hesitated before knocking again and decided against it. Maybe it was a blessing in disguise before he made an a** out of himself. Turning, he immediately left the hallway and headed off to the theater. Wasn't he supposed to be in that play? Pirates or something?

Oh crap...
*Chris slipped back into his armor as Cassie grabbed him. Chris knew the name "Sun Eater" was probably bad this was a nightmare.*
Get us to Billy!
*Cassie and Chris struggle towards Donna and Billy. They huddle together against the intense pull of the Sun Eater.*
BILLY!!! GET US HOME!!!
I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN!
DUDE...YOU CAN DO THIS! I WANT TO GET BACK AND SPEND TIME WITH MY GIRL! ISN'T THERE ANYTHING YOU WANT?
I'll try.

Meanwhile back at school.... ╔══════════════════════════════════╗ "I'm so glad your joining! And yeah, we are changing it up a little by making it about Pirates... Totally not my idea. You can Thank Kurt Wagner for that one."
"But yeah, What did you have in mind?"

Donna looked at Cassie..
" Hang on to him.."
Donna then handed Billy over to Cassie. She picked off the Titan gods one by one throwing them into the Sun-eater. When it was done the sun-eater closed and the slaves cheered in celebration. Cassie looked at Donna.
"Donna.."
"It is done little sister. Now we must work on getting you three home.. follow me.."
Cassie flew next to Donna, carrying Billy as they entered the temples of New Cronus.

Sorry, Chris.
*Chris flew alongside of Cassie.*
It's okay. Zeus said it would be nigh impossible for you to move us back.
*Chris studied Cassie's face.*
Sweetie? Are you okay?

~ The Mystic Arts Building ~
Agatha Harkness stood in the middle of a pentagram chalked onto the ground of the Mystic Arts' Teachers Lounge. She held her hands high, chanting in a strange tongue.
Energy sparked from her hands, and arced out through the roof. The entire school was encircled with the scarlet energy, It bathed every living thing on campus.
Agatha, her eyes rolled into the back of her head, spoke the words that sealed her spell.
"Wallace West. Forgotten."
And so he was. The scarlet energy vanished as suddenly as it had appeared, and Agatha swayed in the circle. She collapsed into the waiting arms of Daimon Hellstrom.
"It is done. I only pray that it was worth it."
"That's all we can hope for, Agatha. As of this moment, the only people on campus who remember Wally West should be you and me."
"I wish Headmaster Wayne had agreed to retain his memories."
"I do too, but I see his reasoning. If the demonic energy of Trigon remains in the students, it may try to spread to the teachers...and even to him. For now, we two must be the only ones who remember. It should confound the demon, at least long enough for Doctor Strange to-"
"To hopefully, save us all."
Agatha nodded, and shook slightly. Hellstrom carried her to her quarters.

x_______________________________________________ Teddy burst through the doors in the theater, suddenly realizing that he was late. Spotting Dani, he waved to her frantically. "I am so sorry I'm here. I was just trying to find Billy, you know...because what happened at the diner the other night was kind of ...weird." Heh. There was a faltering moment where Teddy tried to capture his masculinity. Maybe not everyone in the school knew he was gay yet? Heck, he could pass it off as some weird thing because of that music...right?
He didn't even know if Billy was actually his boyfriend yet. So...maybe it didn't count?

" No... we'll talk about it later.. okay?"
The entered into the empty building on New Cronus... Donna opened a doorway to a room... inside the room were several small screens... each one displaying a different universe... it was like the group was floating in mid air... Cassie let go of Billy and even without magic he to floated. Donna then spoke to the group.
"This is what the Titan gods wanted me to open. This is where they wanted to rule... these worlds are multiverse.. and this place.."
They saw a small bar with a handsome man with wings and floating martinis around him.
" This is the Nexus... Hello Lucifer.."
The man raised his glass...
"And now to find the appropriate universe and send you three home.."
"You're not going with us..?"
" I am needed here to protect this gateway."
" Then I'll stay too!"
Cassie clung on to Donna who looked at the girl shocked.. Cassie was crying as she spoke..
" Donna I lost you once. You died... I... I don't want to lose you again. Please Donna, sister, I've lost so many friends.."

*Chris reached out a hand for Cassie. He had barely gotten her back and now she leaving him....again? Billy patted him on the shoulder as if sensing Chris's pain. Lucifer just smiled placidly at him.
Chris turned his back on the scene. Instead he look at some of the screens. One showed a bar...and he was there. Well, an older version him. And a Cassie was there too. He wondered is that Chris and Cassie were together. He wondered if they were happy.*

Lucifer looked over at Donna..
"Well if she wants to stay I AM looking for help around the bar.."
" I'm only 14"
" Offer still stands.."
Donna interupts.
"No, she must return. Cassandra I love you dearly but we can not both abandon Diana... besides there's someone else who would miss you too.."
Donna looks at Chris and nods.
" Very well... but I'll miss you.."
"We will see each other again. When the Nexus is once again threatened I shall call for you..."
Donna then looks at Chris and Billy.
"All of you.. till then please send Diana my regards. I love you little sister.."
Donna gave Cassie one last hug and in a flash of light the group found themselves standing on Hero High's football field.

*Chris armors down. One minute he's looking at the bar and then they're on the football field. He was never going to get use to this god/cosmic craziness.
He poked Billy.*
I don't suppose you have anywhere else to be?
Hm? Like where?
I dunno...somewhere else? Maybe with a guy? HINT, HINT!
Oh...OH! Yes...I wonder what Teddy is up to.
*While Billy ran off to find Teddy, Chris wrapped an arm around Cassie. What could he say to her? She left her sister behind. Anything he said would sound trite.*

The spotlight, so wonderfully holding onto Hartley as he held that final note, but it slowly turned to the piano, where Professor Dee now sat, his fingers artfully and lightly dancing across the keys as he matched Hartley's tones, picking up from the lyrical pace.
"Mamaaaaaa...just killed a man...Put a gun against his head..."
He raised his left hand to his head, in the gesture akin to a child's representation to a gun, raising the thumb like cocking the hammer...
"...Pulled my trigger, now he's dead..."
Brought the thumb down, his head reacting to the right but, his left hand came back round to meet its right twin, doling out the piano's atmospheric setting notes, never failing in singing as well"...Mamaaaaa, life has just begun...
...But now I've gone and thrown it all awaaaaaaaaay..." That last line was punctuated with a well timed drum beat by Michael, who'd assumed the position, adding punctuation to Dee's lyrics, while Ted slid a guitar strap over his shoulder, waiting for his moment to shine as well.
"...Mamaaaaa, ooooo-ooooh....
...Didn't mean to make you cry...
...If I'm not back again this time tomorrow...
...Carry on, carry on as if nothing really matters..."

Cassie couldn't say anything to Chris. Instead she held him there for a minute.. tears were rolling down her cheek.. she then whispered into Chris's ear.
" I can't believe you made me think I killed Wally.."
It was an image that she simply couldn't get outta her head.

"Too late..."
Hartley stared at his hands, open in front of him.
"My time has come...send shivers down my spine,
body's achin' all the time...
Goodbye, ev'rybody. I've got to goooo
Gotta leave it all behind, and faaaaaace the truth...."
The lights blare up almost blinding in the Choir Lair, as the power chords are struck.
"MAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAA OOOOOOOEEEEEOOOOO"
Ted and Michael join in.
"Any way the wind blows-"
"IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII DON'T WANNA DIEEEEEEE
BUT SOMETIMES WISH I'D NEVER BEEN BORN AT AAAAALLLLL!"
The emotion was so incredibly genuine that it nearly ripped Hartley's heart out of his chest right then and there. As Ted launched into a bridge-spanning guitar solo, Hartley collapsed to his knees, his hands reaching up in fists towards the heavens...and then the tone shifted...

I...
*Chris swallowed hard.*
Cassie....I had to something to wake you up. You're so much stronger than us, it was the only thing I could think to do. I knew if you saw Wally then you'd wake up. I didn't wager on the punch. I'm sorry. I wasn't trying to hurt you. I was trying to save you. Like you saved me.
