Ruby felt the cold before she even opened her eyes. She could tell she wasn't where she was before. She opened her eyes and saw jail bars. She forced herself up and looked at the bars.

Several cells dotted about and she could see people in them. Dangerous people.

"You shouldn't of trusted him..." A weak voice said. She turned to the source. It was someone behind the wall. Probably in another cell.

It sounded male. His voice sounded weak, old and battered. She walked to the bars and looked around seeing no easy escape.

"Who?" Ruby finally replied.

"The guy with a cheeky grin and black hair, He carried you in here" The man replied.

"Richard loves me he wouldn't..." Ruby replied and was interrupted.

"Would I?" Richard replied approaching her cell.

Ruby suddenly felt uneasy around the man she loved only an hour ago. He hadn't even confirmed the theory but she knew deeply that he was responsible.

She stepped backwards and he was at the bars.

"Pretending to like you was torture..." Richard said trailing his hand along the bars. "Pretending to be Richard Grayson was a bore..." He said.

"Where's the real Richard?" Ruby asked not paying him a glance.

"In a city called Gotham dear, He has never met you, Heck he doesn't know you exist..." The man said smirking. It made her feel sick, He had confirmed the theory.

She ran to the bars and reached her arms out to grab him but he moved away in time. "Don't touch me.." He said.

Ruby froze at those three little words. They brought back harsh memories.

-

Ruby pulled a baggy t shirt on that lay in the floor and sat at the edge of the bed quiet and frozen in time. The man fixed his tie and went towards the door. She grabbed his arm "Why-" She began but he threw her off and slapped her.

"Don't touch me..." He told her. Ruby lay on the bed on her side and touched her cheek. She heard the door unlock and the man left. She lay there for a while, She never knew how long. Eventually she stood up. She went through the drawers of the room and found some grey tracksuit bottoms and put them on her legs. 

She slowly walked outside the room blankly looking at the floor. She walked up the corridor and into the bar area, It was empty. Strange because it was there peak time for business.

"Ruby!" She heard Wally shout. She looked up slowly and saw him. He ran to her and held her face.

"Where were you? I was worried, I thought you had been caught trying to leave" He said hugging her and pulling her close.

Ruby didn't hug back. She just stared forward blankly. "Why didn't you go with the others?" Ruby asked looked up at him. She could see the worry in his eyes as she acted out of character.

"I couldn't leave you, Your my best friend... Come on, Some guys helped me out, I nearly got caught but they helped us out" He said.

He put his arm around her shoulders and gently pulled her along and out the back door. 

"Ruby?" A familiar voice questioned. She looked up and saw her brother, Max in a grey hoodie a smile spread across his face.

"Max!" She said running to him and hugging him tightly.

"So she's the chick we been looking for, Max you never said your sister was-" A man beside Max said.

"That she was what?" He said. Ruby pulled away and looked at the man with the cheeky smile and mask over his eyes.

"Who are you?"

"Richards the name sweetheart"

-

Wally stormed to his room and opened his wardrobe looking for something. "What are you doing Wally? You need to rest!" Felicity called after him running to the doorway.

"I can't not help them find her!" Wally growled.

"Oliver, John and Max can find them, You were just injected with a drug, We have no idea what side effects it may have" Felicity said.

Wally threw a strange red jumpsuit on the bed, It was all to familiar to Felicity. "That's Barry's...." She said seeing the familiar suit that belonged to 'The Flash.'

"Barry Allen was my mentor of sorts.. He helped me out after I was electrocuted, I really shouldn't break into old power stations but I needed somewhere to stay, He found me in there while he was investigating recent murders, I was exactly like him... He told me to take his place, If anything ever happened to him.." Wally said going into the bathroom to get changed.

"What happened to Barry? Is he dead?" Felicity asked from the other side of the door.

"That's a story, For another time... You can't know the future cause it might effect your decisions when you return to you're own time..." Wally said.

He opened the door and Felicity lost her breathe for a split second. He looked exactly like Barry did in his costume. "I gotta run, Miss Smoak, Ruby needs me."

Wally went towards the door and she turned to him "Wally" She said.

He turned to her "Hmm?"

"Make sure they come back alive.." Felicity said.

Wally nodded and like a bolt of lightning he ran, Disappearing almost in a flash.

Milla stood in her office her eyes glued to the computer as she watched the cameras that monitored her prisoners. 

"Why am I even here? You aren't going to take anything else from me" A womans voice said from the otherside of the office. Her voice once innocent and soft was now hard and full of spite.

"I have Ruby... " Milla replied sipping a mug of tea as she zoomed in on Rubys cell on the computer.

"No, No, No, Not her, Punish me, Hell even punish Oliver, But leave my daughter out of this, She didn't kill Roy!" The woman pleaded. 

Milla was fast out her chair dropping the mug and she gripped the womans throat. "Don't you dare speak his name! You and your little boyfriend are the reason he's dead!" Milla spat angrily.

"He wouldn't of wanted this Milla..." The woman said her voice almost softer than before.

"You wouldn't know what he wanted, He was my fiance, He was mine, He died because Oliver chose you! Now you and him need to pay!" Milla snarled flinging the woman to the ground of her office and grabbing the handcuffs that bonded the womans wrists together. 

"Time, Mrs Queen for you to die, Or do you prefer Miss Smoak..."
