Pounds of heavy metal and steal was on top of them, yet the roof hadn't collapsed yet. Something went wrong in the cave, and the top of the mountain collapsed on top of everything else. According to Robin, the training software in the ceiling was thick enough to keep the roof up, well, for a while.

The air was getting thick, and all they could do was sit. Megan was cuddled with Super boy on the ground. Zatanna was trying to get a spell to get them out of here, Kaldur was mediating. Robin was sleeping, as he said his slow breathing would preserve air. While Wally was doing the opposite.

The speedster was claustrophobic, and he was panicking. What if the walls collapsed on them? What if the League never found them? What if they ran out of oxygen?

His ragged breathing didn't go unnoticed. "Kid Flash, I believe it is not wise to be worried. Your breathing will take up all of the air." Kaldur said, not making him feel any better.

"B-but what if the walls collapse?" As if on cue, a moan was heard, and the roof dented slightly.

He panicked, gasping and curling up into a ball. "Kid Flash, you need to calm down." Artemis warned.

He couldn't. The world was spinning, his breaths were fast and hard, his heart was palpitating. "I-I cant. Were gonna die..." he murmured.

The rest of the teams attention was turned on him. He was panicking, hard. "Kid?" Robin asked awaking from his sleep. "Your heart rates getting too high. You need to calm down." He demanded.

That just made him panic harder.

"The roofs gonna collapse. Were gonna get crushed by thousands of pounds of steel on our heads. Oh gosh, were gonna die!" He screamed.

"Kid!"

"Kid Flash!"

"Calm down!" They yelled, nothing seemed to work.

He didn't want to die, he was too youn- "Baywatch!" Artemis yelled.

He was too young. He had things he wanted to do. He was never going to see his fam- Artemis wrapped him in an embrace.

He froze. She encased him as if he was fragile, or if he was a baby, she held on tightly, but softly at the same time. "Shhhhhhh." She rubbed soothing circles on his back. She was warm, and as he closed his eyes as he took in her scent of the woods as he was reminded of his families mountain house.

His breathing steadied. She lowered him so his head and shoulders was on his lap. "Take it easy. Think of the beach." She pet his hair.

He felt at ease, and all his thoughts were gone. Pictures of the beach were in his head.The soft rolling waves, the sand beneath his feet, the sun on his skin. She smirked "Thats it Baywatch, stay calm." The way she said calm was like a soft breeze, and he was in a trance.

She began to stand up. He started panicking again and tears began go form in his eyes, she was gone, and the beach was gone, they were go- she noticed and immediately sat down. She rested his head on his lap again, and he clutched her wrist so hard it left a white handprint. "Its okay, Wally. Its okay. I wont leave." He calmed down but wouldn't let go of her.

The team was watching, smug smirks on their faces at the scene before him. Megan was having an adorable overload, she began jumping up and down and clapping. Artemis was the only one who could calm him down, no matter what situation they were in, that was beyond adorable.

Wally did something unexpected. He flipped them over speedy quick and held Artemis like a doll. "Wally? What are you doing?" She asked.

He didn't answer, just held on tighter. He needed to make sure she was there. And that she wasn't leaving. Her hair reminded him of the sun, something he desperately wanted to see right now. He clutched her close, and she started drawing soothing shapes on his arms. His breathing steadied, and he was calm. As long as she was there, he was okay.

Everything was okay.
