In the speed-force, On his way to the dawn of time with the rest of the Paragons, Barry is attacked by the anti-monitor and thrown off course. Barry lands on the floor of the Queen Consolidated building, no longer in his flash suit, but the outfit he wore when he first met Oliver.
He looks around frantically, not understanding what just happened. Then he begins to hear a voice echo. "Sorry I'm late, but actually my train was late. Well, the second one. The first one I did miss, but that was my cab driver's fault. I've got this great traffic app, and he thought that-" It was his voice, he recognizes, remembering he said those exact same words a couple of years ago.
His eyes trail the room and they land on a tin case with the symbol for, "Queen Consolidated?" 'that can't be right,' he thought to himself.
"Not exactly," This new voice startles Barry. "You're in the Speed Force, Barry,"
Barry eyes Oliver, "What happened to you?" he asks. "You're not Spectrey anymore,"
"Oh," Oliver lets out, looking down at his ghost-like form, "Well, I'm lost," he says nonchalantly "I'm out there somewhere in the Speed Force, too...Right," Oliver notes the confused look upon Barry's face and continues to explain, "The Anti-Monitor attacked. We were separated, and I am utilizing various pieces of my 'essence' to keep me, and the rest of the paragons together,"
"That's why I'm here," Barry whispers, "This is-This is where we first met,"
"Right," Oliver confirms, "There are few things more powerful in the universe than memory and connection.I am using our memories of our friends and closest allies to keep all of us from falling out of the Speed Force,"
Barry's eyebrows furrow together, "Wait, What happens if they fall out?" he asks.
"We'll be consumed by anti-matter," Oliver answers. "I can buy you time, Barry, but you need to get to each of us,"
"I mean, the Speed Force is infinite. I could never know where to begin to look,"
"Remember, Barry, memories, and connections...You need to consider our greatest victories, our most crushing defeats, the moments when the bonds between us were forged,"
"The bonds were forged," Barry mumbles to himself.
"Now do this, Barry." Oliver begins to fade, "Because you have to,"

"Barry, Where are we?" Clark asks.
"I'm not sure," Barry answers slowly, looking around.
"And where's Sarah?" Clark whispers to himself.
A gush of wind blows past them. Unknowing to Clark and Barry, it was the Flash from Earth-1, "Um...Hellooooo?" Barry questions the figure.
The flash takes in a sharp breath when he turns around.
Barry narrowly looks at the flash, noting all the similarities between their suits, "What the hell is this?" he asks.
"I'm asking myself the same question...Literally-" He goes back and forth between Barry and Clark, "no, this, this can't be happening, this, you two-"
