(For the sake of the fic, There was no time skip in young justice. He's still 16. That's really important for later.)

I woke up in a giant void of a place, white everywhere. Last I remember, I was dying to save Barry and Bart.

"Where am I?"

"You're here."

I jumped. Naturally, I started asking questions."Where is here?"

"Somewhere."

Great. Getting trolled by literally nothing.

"I'm not nothing, pal. I'm the Speed Force, and you should be thanking me. I'm the source of your power, you leech."

"Did... did I die?"

"Nope, you're good. Your 'sacrifice' stopped the final reach device from exploding. Also, you've reached your full destiny as a speedster. You are now faster than Barry or Bart. "

"That's wonderful!"

"Wait, fool. A couple of weeks afterwards, the Team, The League, and everyone you know, died in one giant city wide fire. M'gann, Connor, Dick, Artemis, Barry, Bruce, Ollie, J'onn, everyone. Convenient, right?"

I broke down on the spot, and began crying. It was the first time I'd done so in a while. Tears in my eyes I began conversing with the Speed Force.

"So, my 'sacrifice' was in vain?"

"Yes and no. You saved everyone on earth, but without the Justice League, everything dropped into hell. So yeah. Want a smoothie?"

The Speed Force manifested in a chilled out form. He looked like me. Douche.

"There has to be something I can do?!"

"Nope." He bit into an apple. This casual motherfucker.

Lightning formed around my fists, and anger filled my heart.

He dropped his apple.

"Oh shit, that's not supposed to happen, dude, stop that!"

"Fuck you!"

I dashed forward, running faster than ever before, running into the void.

He started manifesting everywhere, saying things.

"You can't escape."

"I'm faster than you are."

"There is no end to this void."

"Give up!"

"Never!"

I began speeding up, everything blurring around me.

"STOP!"

"NO!"

And then I saw it. A crack. An escape.

"I'm leaving!"

And he just teleported in front of the tear.

I rammed right through him. He phased right into my body.

And I passed through. The speed enveloped me, tearing through. I saw an object in front of me, and it was big.

"Nothing stops me! Not now!"

Pouring all my speed into my fist, I punched it. My fist rippled through, annihilating it. I slowed down to arrive on Earth.

I skidded down through the street, fist still outstreched. Everyone was frozen, no, I was simply too fast.
I looked forward as my fist collided with something red. A person. I saw as my arm vibrated, and the force was translated from my arm to his chest. Slowing down completely, he went flying at the speed of sound through buildings and through the road and through anything unlucky enough to be in its path.
I stood up after that epic display. And then it hit me. I just appeared out of nowhere and punched something. I must seem like some violent New Age Jesus or something. A voice rang out from a group of 5.
