Gio shivered as he watched his ((maybe)(boy)friend(? ? ?) walk around the icy wasteland with some sort of hand held device and wondered once more exactly what they were for. Or more correctly why they were here for the second time.
The other man suddenly stopped and looked around standing in , what the italian man presumed were, the final foot prints of the ex-KidFlash, Wally West. Then adjusted the doohickey and tilted his head in a mildly confused and surprised expression “well, Huh.”
“What is it Hart?”
“Remember when I said something about Wally’s death seemed odd”
“Vaguely. I mostly remember your ex fling talking you into getting final details of West’s ‘ceasing’.” He snarked that last part under his breath knowing that Hartley would still hear it and getting a most scathing glare for it. “Love you too Piper, so what about Flashypants Jr’s departure?”
“Departure is the perfect word for it,” the musician said “seeing as the bigger types of radiation that’s here aren’t the same kind that I get from Blue’s plasma cannon or from Kara when shes pissed.” he glances back down at the device
“more like spontaneous matter transfer via the speedforce.”Hartley said, pocketing the device
“Cosa!” he ran over to the Brunette and looked at the device, not quite removing it from his hands.
“I know right?! The main type of residue that we have is 3x2(9yz)4a!”
“But wouldn’t just confirm what we already knew?”
“No. Not in these quantities! You see Speedforce has ,very predictably, an extremely short, borderline toxic, half life” the genius said starting to pace, “ Speedsters have a ton of it but only release a trace amount, so if it was simply confirmation it would be completely gone by now”
“But-”
“but there are enormous amounts of it here way more than a an army of speedsters simply running would have released.”
“so?”
“SO! I’ve never seen readings like this before! Not to mention the other radiant is zanopene with trace amounts of cosmica. like the Cosmic treadmill.”
“WALLY’S IN THE FUTURE!?”
“or in the past ,trapped in the Speedforce, alternate reality”Hartley rattled off some other possibilities “Whatever you get the gist, he’s alive--ish. MAybe. Hopefully. There’s a chance. he’s Alive-ish”
“Cool” Gio chirped” Now lets go” he then picked up Hartley and carried him bridal style back to the Rathaway technologies’ Super-sonic jet that they may have more or less hijack
Caitlin frowned and turned up John Doe's nutrition feed for the hundreth time since he'd arrived, according to her calculations he ate three times as much as Barry!
She looked at the young man in the cot.
Going off his readings and heart rate he was some kind of speedster. Well that and the fact he was wearing a red and gold version of Barry's suit. Given how things were going as of late she supposed he was from an alternative universe, though Jay had already said he'd never seen a red headed speedster on Earth 2. Maybe he'd been sent by Zoom, but that was doubtful given that zoom wanted all other speedsters dead
At any rate she hoped that they could get him home, he'd yelled out that he had to get back to someone named Artemis before passing out into a coma.
She looked back at the monitors again and sighed as she once more adjusted the man's nutrient intake.
