The city was in ruins as the league fought desperately to save what was left from the invaders. Barry ran around, whisking and chucking things at the aliens that attacked, mercilessly.

Y/N grunted as she summoned a gust of wind to knock down a small plane as thunder rolled above, matching her fierce eyes.

She still some how managed to look hot, to him. Barry smiled as he remembered the ring in his pocket. He was planning to propose to her before this chaos happened.

Barry watched the clouds darken as Clark shot through the air and took out another cluster of the green invaders. The wind was harsh, the rain felt like glass shards as it cut down to the earth.

"Y/N!" Bruce yelled into the earpiece, snapping her out of her enraged trance.

The rain stopped, but the dark clouds and rolling thunder still remained.

"Sorry." She said, quietly.

After they were done tossing Diana into the next state over, Y/N was pretty mad. Diana was a older sister to her, showing her around the league and guiding her when she first came in. Even helping her with relationship advice with her and Barry.

Barry frowned, glancing up at his girlfriend, worryingly. His heart jerked at her pain-ridden face.

He ran close to her and touched her arm. She glanced at him, crying at the superheroes dead bodies.

"You going to be okay?" He asked, hugging her. The earpiece was muted.

"I can do this." She sounded like she was talking to herself. "I'm strong enough." Her body was shaking. Tear streaks ran down her face as she pressed herself into his hug.

"I know you are." Barry replied, kissing her dirty forehead.

Her hair ripped through the air as it flickered like a flame. Her suit clung to her body from the harsh rain earlier.

"I'm sending a missile into their headquarters." Bruce informed to the whole league. "But I need help to get to the missile launcher. But you need to get out of the launcher because the force of the missile will kill you."

"I'll do it." Clark immediately replied.

"You can't, you're one of our biggest guns here!" Hal argued.

"I'll do it." Y/N replied, "I'm not much of a help with my mood so I'll do it."

"Fuck no." Barry immediately, said. He turned off the ear piece. "No, Y/N."

"I'm the most useless person right now, I'm going to do it." She explained, softly. "You can't stop me. Please understand."

"Wait, what about you, Bruce?" Barry asked, frowning and turning his ear piece on again. He ran through a street, kicking down a bunch of aliens. "Won't you die if you launch that?"

"What kind of machine is that?" Hal asked. "One that kills you if you launch it?"

Barry watched as she shot to the sky and flew away. He swallowed as he prayed, silently.

"It was a prototype." Bruce grumbled, annoyed. "Still in the works, but it doesn't matter. We need it now."

"I'm here." Y/N said, breathlessly into the ear piece.

"You're supposed to take me up with you." Bruce growled, mad. Barry could imagine him face-palming.

"Doesn't matter, you can't die. You're Batman." She chuckled a little at her own joke. "Just tell me what to do. I see a lot of buttons."

"Press the red one." Bruce instructed, then hesitating.

"Red? Seriously, Wayne?" Barry chuckled at her comment.

"It's obvious for dumbasses like you." Bruce retorted. "Then press the green one next to it two times."

"That's it?" She asked, unsure.

"Careful Y/L/N. After that, fly the hell out of there." Bruce sighed, deeply. "And don't die on us."

Barry took in a shaky breath. "You better live, Y/N." He threatened. "I have a surprise for you."

"We're having a party after this, don't bail on me." Clark added.

He could hear her smile.

"Jeez moms, I won't die." Her laughter seems forced.

A bright beam shot through the sky that followed a explosion that detonated the sky. The sound cleared his ears and made him probably deaf.

His green eyes stared at the missile launcher, daring to believe. But all that came out was a sickening sound of blood sloshing.

Barry choked back a sob, as he sank to his knees. His heart felt as if it been ripped out as his brain came to a realization that he would never live out his plan to marry the girl of his dreams. His lungs were smushed as he felt the overwhelming reality came crashing down on him

He couldn't breathe as panic envelops his body.

Last thing he saw was Diana's confused face morphing into a sorrowful expression as she realized that Y/N L/N was dead.
