Too Far Back (The Flash and Merlin Crossover)

Arrival

3rd Person P.O.V.

"He's not dead. He's not dead." Caitlin says again.

"Caitlin." Barry interrupted.

"He's not dead. He's not."

"Caitlin." Iris said.

"This's not happening. This's not happening again!" Caitlin said, frantically.

"Hey, I got you." added Cisco, walking over to support her up. "Come on." Cisco guided Caitlin out of the basement.

"Open it up." Barry said to Harry.

"Allen."

"I need to go back."

"I can't do that."

"Open it up!" Barry yelled, turning to face Dr. Wells.

" breaches are closed. All the breaches are closed."

"Why can't we just open one of 'em?" Joe added.

"The quark matter energy we used to seal the breaches, it prevents them from being opened, ever again. There's no going back to our world."

"Wait." Jessie intervened, "We're trapped here for good?"

"Yes." said Wells.

Everyone looked away, tears pooling in their eyes at the death of their friend.

"No, we can't, just let Zoom get away with this. He just murdered Jay right in front of us!" Barry yelled.

"There's gotta be something we can do." Joe said.

"There's not." said Wells. "Not this time. It's over."

"No."

Barry sighed, and walked out of the room. He quickly grabbed his suit, and then started to run, a single thought stuck in his mind. Get to Jay.

Barry knew that this was a longshot, but he had to try. He's traveled in time for goodness sake! Barry started to run faster, faster, faster, trying to travel to Earth-2. I have to do this for Caitlin, for everyone, for myself he thought. I have to try.

His legs pumped faster than they ever had before, and Barry felt himself traveling, and then falling. This is it, he thought, as the rest of the world started to dim to black around him.

Merlin's P.O.V.

Merlin and Arthur trudged through the forest, leaves crunching under their boots. They were on their daily quest to find Morgana. It had been almost a year and Morgana still had not returned, to Merlin's joy. Walking along, Merlin thought he saw something red. A bright red, like the cape knights of Camelot wore. Merlin quickly dropped back to investigate. He tiptoed through the trees until he got to the space where he saw the unusual color, and almost tripped when he saw what it was. Crumpled on the ground was a red-clad figure. He was wearing a tight fitting red suit, with an attached mask, and on his chest there was a lightning bolt. Merlin quickly summoned some different clothes for the man, and he magically dressed him, hiding the red suit in his bag. Arthur would have executed the man right then and there if he had seen such different clothes.

"Arthur!" Merlin yelled.

"Yes? And don't go telling me you've got yourself stuck in quicksand again!"

"That was only once!" Merlin protested. Arthur appeared through the trees and, in seeing the figure on the ground, ran towards Merlin.

"What happened?"
