The_Lupine_Sojourner
(Can't think of better title. Sorry!) Collection of Angst/Hurt&Comfort Young Justice One/Two-shots.
1.) As Bart Allen pumped his legs down hall after hall, into room after room without success, tearing through so many labs he lost count, he kept repeating one thought, a single desperate prayer, over and over, until it was a mantra, running constantly through his very being. All consuming, because he can't bear for it not to be true. He can't be too late.
2.) "...I'm going to need you to repeat that. Slowly, cus I could have sworn you said..." As much as it killed me...I had to tell Bart. He was pale and shaky and I knew I didn't have to repeat myself. Good. I didn't want to. I wanted to slap the Reach out of my friend and just pull him close and beat the ever-loving crap out of the Reach-controlled beetle that took advantage of Jaime's desperation to achieve their goal of getting a new puppet. But most of all...I want to hug that horrid look off poor Bart's face.
Please enjoy!
