3rd person POV

Curtis looked out the window of the ARGUS van, "Okay, I know this sounds nuts and completely unscientific, but I think that freaky lightning is following us", he said. Diggle and three other ARGUS agents aimed their guns around, searching the abandoned lot, "Focus, Curtis", Dig said. Curtis rolled his eyes, "This is me focusing. These atmospheric anomalies are playing all kinds of hell on my equipment, plus you don't want that lightning to hit when you're engaging Deathstroke's son", he said just before lighting struck the agents and Kane appeared in front of them, "I just had to say it", he scolded himself.

They got up and aimed their guns at him, "Kane Wolfman, you're under arrest for 19 violations of international law!", Diggle yelled at him. Kane looked at them, "Really? Does that include the murder of...", he started counting the men, "4 ARGUS field agents?", he asked. "Last chance! On the ground!", Dig yelled at him again. Kane took his sword out as the agents started to shoot at him, their bullet reflecting off his armor. He knocked Dig to the ground before proceeding to kill the rest of the agents. He turned his attention back at Dig who got up off the ground. The two men started fighting until Kane got the upper hand and held Dig to the ground with his boot and held his sword to his neck, "This isn't personal. Just business", he said.

Before he could do anything, he was blasted away from Dig by Kara's freeze breath. Delaney screamed at him, throwing him back in the other direction while Oliver sped over and slammed him against a car and Barry pinned him there with arrows. The four of them stood next to each other, "In case you were wondering, he's still just as much of a jerk in the future", she said to then remembering when the Legends crash landed in 2046. Dig groaned and got off the ground, "Son of a bitch", he muttered to himself. Kara looked at him, "Is that any way to treat your friends?", she asked him. Dig looked at the four heroes, "All I know is when the four of you show up, it usually means we have one huge problem", he said.

"So...you're you", Dig said looking at Barry and Oliver when they all got back to ARGUS. Curtis stood next to him, "And you're you", he finished. Dig shook his head, "An immortal Egyptian, aliens, parallel earth Nazis. I have no idea why I'm even surprised at this point. "I'm still trying to figure out if this is more like Freaky Friday or Quantum Leap", Curtis thought out loud. Barry perked up, "No. If this were like Quantum Leap, I'd only look like myself in the mirror", he said, smiling. Delaney smiled and laughed a little at her husband's adorable nerdiness. Curtis looked at him and nodded, "Yep. You are definitely not Oliver Queen", he said, knowing that Oliver wouldn't have made that connection.

Kara sighed, "We think that the red skies and these lightning strikes have to be related to whatever happened to Barry and Oliver somehow", she told them. Delaney nodded, "we need you to figure out the somehow while we're in Gotham", she said. Curtis nodded, "No problem. I mean, ARGUS has all the best analytic toys, but what we really need is a pattern recognition algorithm, and unfortunately, Felicity isn't--"

"I called Felicity", Oliver interrupted. Dig looked at him, "Wait, what? You called Felicity? Okay, right. Well, I guess that makes sense because technically you are her husband. I'm confused", he said, the wheels in his head trying to make sense of it all. Felicity walked into the room, "I've been summoned?", she asked, smiling awkwardly at Barry who she thought was Oliver. The real Oliver motioned for Barry to say something until he finally got it, "Yes. Thank you for coming", he said to her. He nodded at him, "Of course. I mean, things might be fraught between us, Oliver. That doesn't mean I'm not going to show up", she said.

Barry looked at her confused, "They are?", he asked before Delaney and Oliver both shot him a look to keep going, "They are. Yeah. Which is...sad", he said trying to fix his mistake. Delaney and Oliver both rolled their eyes at Barry's lack of acting skills when Curtis got their attention again, "So, um, this lightning thing. Um, could you help me out with that. Can I show you kinda what I'm thinking?", he asked her. She smiled at him, "Yeah", she said as they walked out off the room, not before throwing an odd look at Barry.
