Dick was on the rooftops, watching the amount of Adam's men get rounded up by the cops when he heard a familiar voice from behind him.

"You know you could have called me for help, would have had all of those crazies dead to rights." Dick just chuckled hearing that as he turned around, greeted by Wally in his super suit.

"Yeah, but the universe would somehow find someway to let Adam give you the slip." Dick said as he and Wally hugged each other before sitting down, beside each other.

"How'd you know I was in town? I don't remember letting you know ahead of time."

"A little bird told me."

"And by that, you actually mean Iris?" Dick said with a shit eating grin on his face as Wally just held his head down.

"Oh come on Wally, you know I'm just busting your chops."

"You don't need to be a dick about it." Wally quipped, earning a laugh out of the both of them.

"Has our whole friendship taught you nothing about me?" Dick said with a chuckle as Wally just shook his head while laughing, before Dick smelled something delicious and looked behind them, seeing a box of pizza.

"Figured you were hungry." Wally said as he and Dick started eating the pizza, both greatly enjoying their meal as the two best friends enjoyed being together like the old days.

-Meanwhile-

Barry and Izuku were in the middle of some little sparing while Eri and Momo were cheering for Izuku to win, even though the chances of that happening were next to none as Barry had Izuku pinned to the ground.

"Man, guess you could say it was over in a flash. Eh? Eh?" Yang said as the others all face plammed at Yang's pun while Barry, Izuku and Eri all laughed before Barry helped Izuku up.

"Pretty good kiddo. You keep going at this rate, and you'll be 10x faster then Zoom in no time." Barry said as Izuku just smiled at his dad's praise.

"Thanks Dad. I really want to beat that black and blue devil senseless for killing Grandpa Henry." Izuku said as lightning sparked around his hands, before another speedster arrived.

Barry's uncle, Jay Garrick.

"Well slugger, that will definitely damage Zoom's ego more then it alright is

"Well slugger, that will definitely damage Zoom's ego more then it alright is." Jay said with a chuckle as Izuku gave the older speedster a hug.

"So, if no one minds me asking, are we not going to talk about Barry's lightning color?" Weiss asked as Barry just chuckled as the young heiress' question.

"Allow me to explain." Barry said as he ran off to grab a chart that has different speedster lighting colors as yellow and blue lightning sparked around his body.

(Barry's lightning color is yellow and light blue in this)

"Right, first is bright yellow. This is the basic color all speedsters start with, shows your connection Speed Force is fresh. Then over time, assuming you don't artificially alter your Speed Force connection, the lightning changes to dark yellow or orange, depending how you look at it." Barry explained as Weiss started taking notes.

"Next is red lightning, this means you're connected to the Negative Speed Force. You see a speedster with red lightning, odds are they are a bad guy." Barry said as everyone had a 'no duh' look on their faces.

"Next up, light blue and dark blue lightning. Dark blue lightning is the result artificially altering your Speed Force connection with a speed drug like older models of the Velocity serum, though the major downside to this is a nasty case of cellular degeneration and the occasional spilt personality." Hearing that sent a chill down the spines of everyone in the room as Ruby clung to Yang's arm.

"Light blue lightning on the other hand is way less dangerous, it happens when your Speed Force connection remains pure for a long period of time. Now white lightning. . . . Honestly, white's tricky since Savitar is the only speedster to have white lightning, expect not really since his lightning was only white while in his suit. Though if natural white lightning is a things, only make sense for it to come after light blue." Barry stated as Weiss continued writing her notes.

(Before anyone comments about Godspeed, he'll be in this story but will take more after his comic appearance, aka not being done dirty)

"And then there's purple. And we have absolutely nothing on purple lightning. Nora is the only speedster we know of to have purple lightning, besides that one time Iris had my speed for whatever reason." Barry explained as the kids were shocked and confused as Nora was about to ask something.

"Don't ask Nora, it was a stupid and dumb thing. Like, really stupid and dumb, Cisco and Ralph nearly went a month without sleep trying to figure out how that made any sense." Barry said as everyone looked over at Cisco.

"Well it didn't make sense. Like Han not shooting first, it just makes no sense!" Cisco said as Barry just chuckled before running off to grab a different chart.

"Now we have the rules of time travel. First rule, if you ever find yourself traveling into the past, never try to alter the past because who knows what could change in the present." Barry said as Izuku and Nora both started taking notes as well.

"Now the second rule, if someone else has already changed the past and the changes are beyond bad, you are allowed to stop that change from happening, but then again that is also pretty confusing and screwy. Point is, time travel is fucking confusing." Barry explained while Yang covered Ruby's ears.

"As for the third rule, always have a destination in mind when time traveling to make sure you don't end up in a random point in time." Barry stated as Izuku and Nora finished writing their notes as a small energy blast was shot at Izuku, who just dodged it easily as the blast quickly vanished.

"You'll have to be way faster then that, Jaune." Izuku said as he turned around to see another  one of his childhood friends.

"I was going easy on you." Jaune said as Izuku just chuckled as the two hugged each other, while Jaune fist bumped Yang.

"Yeah, keep telling yourself that." Izuku joked as Izuku introduced Jaune to Momo, his classmates and Eri, who quickly took a liking to Jaune before giving him a hug and calling him Uncle Jaune.

"Izuku's definitely taking a lot after you Barry, he's already being a good father to that little angel." Jay said as he places his hand on his nephew's shoulder.

"Just wish Mom and Dad were here to see this." Barry said while watching Izuku being happy with his friends.

"Barry, we both know Henry and Nora would be very proud of you and Izuku." Jay said as Barry just smiled and hugged his uncle.
