*Dragon Man roared at the new intruder on the roof. He had already dealt with the robot that threatened Master Franklin. Now this crimson clad speedster was on the scene. How many intruders would he have to stop?
...
Dr. Richards would not be happy with the damage from all of this. Better stop the speedster fast. Dragon Man stood in front of the downed Powell and breathed a swath of fire at Wally.*

In downtown Midvale Linda was walking around she found a few posters about the ice carving festival and some flyers. She picked up one of the flyers. The festival was still a few weeks away but it seemed a few people on the street were talking about it. Linda went into a nearby coffee shop and picked up some hot chocolate... thinking about whether or not she should talk to Mr.Allen about the whole Kid Flash thing.

"Woah, hey!" Wally jumped ungracefully to the side to avoid being singed by a stream of fire. "Dude! Not cool!"
He looked over at Chris. This giant monster thing was wearing a Future Foundation outfit, so it obviously worked for Professor Richards. They had to think of a way to show that they weren't intruders or saboteurs before they were roasted to a pulp!
"So, this is, uh, the roof of the Future Foundation Hospital. Doctor Richards was right, you do get a great view of the city from here. This was totally worth it for the extra credit in his class."
Wally talked loudly as if he was sharing the scores of the latest hockey game with Powell, hoping that it would help diffuse the situation...

*Dragon Man stopped his fiery attack and stared at Wally for a long moment. Then, he reached down to a pouch at his waist and removed a small pair of spectacles. He placed the glasses on the tip his dragon beak...thing...
Anyway, Dragon Man blinked several times before speaking in a polished, urbane voice.*
What was that you said, young man? You're one of Dr. Richards students? I certainly don't recognize you. So this means your not with this cad who invaded my classroom.
*Dragon Man kicked Powell slightly who was moaning and coming around.*

"Cad?" What the heck was a cad? Cad, cad, cad....OHHHH, he meant Powell. Well, this wasn't good. Wally had two choices; say he wasn't with Powell and leave him flame-roasted, or say he was and invite the wrath of Scorchy McFlame breath over there on himself.
Wally thought fast.
"Invasion? Oooooh, no, no, NO! That's not what's going on here. You see, we're working on an....invasion...preparedness...drill for one of our classes. That's Darkhawk, there. He's a student to. He's...he's my partner."
Wally hoped the sincerity in his voice was coming through. If he screwed this up, Powell could get toasted, and he didn't want that.
"Look, there's been some sort of miscommunication or misunderstanding here, ya know? We wouldn't be going around starting random fights with guys much MUCH MUCH bigger than ourselves for no reason, right? Nothing's been stolen and no damage was done-" Wally hoped Dragon Guy wouldn't point out the numerous fires raging on the outside of the building right now, cuz technically, those were HIS fault. "-so, can we just go? Obviously, we need to...re-read the assignment."
Wally looked over to Chris, hoping for some back-up at this point.

*Chris was half-delirious from Dragon Dude's punch. At first he swore that Cassie had shown up to save him...but the more he stared, the more it looked like Wally. In a blond wig. Dressed like Cassie. That made no sense!*
Duuuuude...why you wearing a blond wig?
*Dragon Man looked down at the moaning Powell.*
Perhaps I hit your friend a bit too hard. Hm. You present me quite the quandry, I shall have to consult with, Dr Richards.
*Dragon Man reached into his loincloth(yea...you read that right) and pulled out a tiny cell phone.*
Excuse me, Dr. Richards but there is a situation on the roof. With students?

Dragon Man cupped the phone away from his mouth.
"Your names?"
Wally glanced over at Powell, blurred for a moment, then answered.
"Wally West and Chris Powell." Dragon Man repeated them into the phone.
And waited...and waited....and waited. Suddenly, he nodded.
"Ah, I see. Thank you for clearing that up." He hung up his phone and redeposited it in his loincloth. Wally tried to not look grossed out.
"Well, it sounds as if you two lads have your wires crossed indeed. Doctor Richards says he assigned no such assignment...but while we were conversing on the phone, his colleague Mister Allen must have overheard him, because he says he DID. Nevertheless, I was not consulted about any such actions to be taking place on Future Foundation property, and as such I must ask you to excuse yourselves so I can return to my own charges."
Wally plastered a huge grin on his face.
"Yes sir! Thank you, sir!" He grabbed Chris by the arm.
"Let's get the HECK out of here!'

Classes would be starting again soon. Billy couldn't wait -- for a change.
The holidays had been so miserable for him that he didn't know what to do or how to act any more. He usually just acted by instinct but so far, all that got him was less friends and apparently the loss of his boyfriend.
He sat down on the steps of the school courtyard by the fountain and rested his forearms on his knees and watched the sunset. It was beautiful. What he wouldn't have given to be sharing this moment with Teddy.
Then again, it was Teddy who hurt and embarrassed him by dumping him right in front of everyone, at a wedding reception no less! Worse, it was the reception of a wedding that had been three thousand plus years in the making, which made it all the worse. If Teddy wanted to dump him, well... couldn't he have picked a better time, and place? if there was such a thing for getting dumped.
And why was he going about saying that it was because they didn't do the things couples should be doing? They hung out. They smooched. What else were they supposed to be doing besides... well, they were at a boarding school for god's sake! Billy had brought him home for the holidays... introduced him to his parents... Teddy never offered to let Billy meet his own mom!
What does that say about where the fault should lay?
yeah like Teddy would ever offer to take up any of the fault. Hypocrite. One minute he's bitching about how Wallace and Hartley treated them, and the next he's running to them after the break up like long lost friends. Teddy was probably just waiting and looking for an excuse to break up with him.
The more Billy thought about it, the angrier he got. he never even noticed the faint glow of the pendant around his neck.
Viktor looked up from the Pool of Vision to Satanna and smiled.
"That jewel of yours is a miracle to behold. You must share your secret with us sometime."
Satanna gazed upward and shrugged with a smile only a demonic succubus could manage to pull off.
She said, "It's only a trifle. It allows me to exchange energy with him, if you will. And it also leaves him... suggestive, to my charms."
"I thought the lad was gay?"
She laughs, "Oh he is, but I was referring to my other charms. I'm opening up a portal of suppressed emotions inside of him. I am going to channel that anger until it explodes. Then we can move in with your desires."
"And the power?" Victor asked.
Satanna turned back to the Pool and watched Billy lean back on the fountain.
She said, "He will be given a share of the collective power of New Salem. That will be the key."

Dani make it to the stairs of FF building just in time to Wally and Chris coming out of the building.
They were smiling. This was a good thing. She wondered if it worked. All that planning that went and backfired. she hoped it wasn't all in vane.
"Sooo... "
She sang to her favorite boys.
"Has the bromance been reestablished? Because let me tell you. This day? Kinda a pain. Something good MUST have come out of this."

*Chris looked at Wally. Dani was right. They needed to put this all behind them. Wally was an awesome guy and awesome friend. He wanted to let go of all the anger and resentment over the Cassie thing. He wanted to apologize to Wally for how he treated him. He wanted to say, "I love you,man."
Chris held out a fist.*
We cool, Bro?

Wally held out his own fist.
"Dude."
Fists tapped, and that was that.

"Was that it? Are you serious?"

"So now back to the important matter at hand!"
She held out her hands to them.
"I'll be needing my Witchblade back."

Wally slid off the bracelet and started to hand it over to her, but then drew it back.
"Waaaaaait a second....you seem awfully un-traumatized given that you were kidnapped and held for ransom..."

William Billy Kaplan The more Billy thought about it, the angrier he got. Linda was just about to shoot a photo of the frozen fountain, from a distance, when she saw through the lens a boy was sitting there. He look so troubled, she took the picture anyways. It worked so well with the snow fall. His passion and anger against the harsh crystals of ice and soft falling snow. She didn't notice the glow of the pendent around his neck. She walked over to him, gingerly putting away the camera away, she walked over to him slowly. "Hello." Linda said softly, she didn't want to intrude on his personal space so she didn't sit down. instead she folded her hands in front of her "Why Do I get the feeling you need a good ear to talk to?"
