The Dalton Academy Warbles are a force to be reckoned with and even more so with the one of their newest singers: Sebastian Smythe. Known to some people, i.e. the New Directions, Sebastian was a sarcastic, egotistic, arrogant, and wanna-be Disney princess but to most of Dalton's rivals and his fellow students, he was titled as a siren.

Sebastian was deadly and beautiful, has the voice of an angel and the movement of the devil.

While most of the Warbles get along with or tolerate Sebastian, only Nick and Jeff are the closest to the siren and have seen him at his emotional worse.

The first time Jeff and Nick discovered the existence of Barry Allen was through Skype.

There was no doubt that the news of Sebastian throwing a harmful slushie at a rivaling choir and sending the former Warbler to the hospitable has reached the Smythe family. The rest of the Warbles received with share of parent's disappointment and lectures but they all knew that Sebastian was taking most of the consequences by having his high positon of leader of the Warbles thrown away with the confirmed rumor of a new leader the following semester.

It was the following weekend from Warbles vs New Directions Slushie attack event when Jeff and Nick were heading towards Jeff's and Sebastian's room to have a Harry Potter marathon. Their debate on the Neville Longbottom being an alternative Chosen One Theory was interrupted as they entered the room to see Sebastian skype calling someone with the exact same face of him.

"Woah," Jeff said looking between Sebastian, now with his chair spun around to face the two, and a replica face on the laptop's screen facing to door entrance.

"Guys, this is not the best time for your movie marathon," Sebastian snapped, crossing his arms and then turning to his doppelganger, "Or we could end this conversation now, that's an option, that's a very good option, goodbye Barry."

The Warble was about to clink on the end button when the caller sternly said, "No Seb, we're not done talking."

"Yes, we are," Sebastian stated and ended the call. Not a minute later, the Skype screen popped up with a waiting call from a Barry Allen. Sebastian let out a disgruntle sigh and closed shut his laptop. Moving to his bed, Sebastian dully said, "Keep the volume down, I'm going to sleep."

Nick and Jeff sat on the blonde's bed, already with a laptop set up for their movies when Nick propped, "You have a twin?"

"Shut up."

Sebastian's phone rang with the caller ID of Barry Allen and the Warbler simply ignored the call. Jeff pointed out, "You can't ignore this guy forever."

"Yes I can." Another phone ring led to Sebastian pressing the ignore button. "See, I can just ignore him."

The phone rang out a third time and before Sebastian could press the red button, Jeff snatched the phone away, answering the call, "Hello, I'm Jeff, Seb's roommate, yes the blond one."

"Jeff, give me back my phone!"

"Nick, go stall him!" Jeff yelled as his brunet friend tackled the taller Warble, pinning the struggling limbs to the bed.

"So, you happen to have the exact same face as Sebastian, interesting. Who are you cause while my friend Nick thinks you're a twin brother, I like to think bigger and guess you're both clones, by the way can you tell me who's the prime or is that classified?"

After a moment of processing all those words, the man on the other line replied, "Well, I have researched many articles about the progress of cloning skin cells and if our technology was further developed, clones can be a real possibility."

"Let me guess," Sebastian called out from under Nick holding down his arms against his back, "You got him talking about science." He then strained his neck to look over his shoulder at Nick, "And you probably wished it was Jeff in this position instead of me."

"Shut up Sebastian."

"That wasn't a denial."

"So you're just brothers?" Jeff confirmed from his continued conversation, "But you two looked exactly the same, you're like Wesley twin level of sameness."

"Trust me," Sebastian rolled over abruptly, slamming Nick against the wall, "We are nothing alike, even if he doesn't seem old enough to have some fancy college diploma or a bunch of science rewards."

Sebastian got out of Nick's grip and stood up, snatched his phone back, "Hey Barry, we'll talk later and yes, I'll behave better now."

"You better Sebastian, you might have promised that to the Smythes but Joe, Iris, and I still worried about you."

"Whatever," Sebastian blandly replied, ending the call. He then proceeded to grab his jacket and made his way out the door, "I'm getting a drink."

A few weeks pass and Sebastian never gets another chance to talk to Barry all because of a lightning bolt. Reports about the Particle Accelerator blowing up and many injured citizens have taken over many news stations which lead to Nick and Jeff to find Sebastian drunk and bitter in his dorm room.

"Sebastian," Jeff trailed off, processing the fact that there's a lot of empty beer and liquor bottles tossed aside on their bedroom floor while over on the bed, Sebastian looked like a complete mess. His hair was a mess, eyes red rimmed, and to Jeff's surprise Sebastian was still crying, "What happened?"

The drunken teenager didn't respond and instead chugged another beer. Nick decided to grab the beer from Sebastien's weak grip, "Nick, give it back."

"No, you're clearly way too drunk than usual," Nick pointed accusingly at him and his beer and tear stained shirt, "And drinking away your sadness of whatever is not going to help. Now tell us what happened."

Their drunken friend continued to ignore him, lying down and pulling the blanket over himself. Jeff groaned at the stubbornness and grabbed the edges to the blanket, about to pull it away until Sebastian's phone rang.

Nick was about to pick it off the side table, reading out loud, "Iris West?"

Immediately, Sebastian threw his arm out to grab the phone, flinging the blanket off the bed and answered the call, "Iris, is he better?"

Whatever this Iris person said, the update on the condition of a person did not improve by how the small hope in Sebastian's eyes was crushed and became downcast. He didn't bother to say goodbye and simply ended the call and tossed his phone on the foot of the bed.

Jeff sat next to him, asking, "Do you want to talk about or do you want another drink?" At the suggestion of another drink, Nick sat on Sebastian's other side and offered the stolen beer to Sebastian who chugged the rest of the liquid courage.

Tossing the empty can, Sebastian began quietly, "Barry, he lives in Central City."

"The explosion," Jeff concluded but Sebastian shook his head.

"No, of all things, he got struck by lightning. It's just so unbelievable but now he's in a coma and Iris says that the doctors are doing their best but that is just bullshit. My brother's in a fucking coma and I." More tears fell and when he began sobbing, Jeff instantly pulled Sebastian into a hug. Even if his voice was muffled by Jeff's shirt, Sebastian cried out, "He tried to call me so many times, whether I was in trouble or not but I just ignored him most of the time. I treated him like shit just because we grew up in different homes. He stayed back in Central while I got adopted by our uncle and aunt because of how messed up our childhood was. Now, he's in a coma and I have no idea if he's ever going to wake up."

Thoughts about giving Sebastian words of reassurance were on the tips of Nick's and Jeff's tongues but they knew better, they knew whatever they said would make Sebastian feel weak by their pity. Sebastian cried into Jeff's shirt, thinking about how his and Barry's life and their friendship fell apart on the day their mother died.

On the fateful night of Nora Allen's death, an eleven year old Barry told his six year old brother to stay upstairs when loud noises came from the living room. That night resulted in a dead mother, a father as the culprit, a boy who believed in the Man in the Lightning, and a boy hugging his knees at the top of the staircase, only hearing utter chaos. Adults like Joe West and the maternal aunt and her husband, a Mr. Smythe, decided that Sebastian's trauma was not as intense as Barry's.

Psychiatrics informed the concerned parents that it was common for children in these situations to repress the trauma and since the only sensory recall was hearing, music seemed to be the most ideal remedy for Sebastian. As for Barry, every psychiatric meeting always held a conversation about the Man in the Lightning. The doctors concluded that Barry's fixation on the Man would be unhealthy for the future and suggested that it may be best to separate the brothers.

Joe was strongly against the idea at first; reasoning that Barry needs his brother since Barry was still adjusting -trusting the West family. The doctors' counterargument was simple, Barry's trauma, and his strong belief in the Man in the Lightning, might influence Sebastian to believe in something he never witnessed and would encourage his brother to keep believing in something impossible. Joe and the Smythes eventually agreed and thus, Sebastian was adopted into the Smythe family.

Now years later, Barry still believed in the impossible while Sebastian tried to move on, the only thing that's stopping him is Barry. Every time Sebastian sees Barry, it feels so strange. To Sebastian, Barry will always be his brother, his only real family, but at the same time it's strange for Sebastian to see his brother try to research and pursue the impossible through unexplained cold cases, scientific anomalies, and whatever else that's strange about the world.

Sebastian doesn't understand Barry's hope or determination. Sebastian doesn't understand why Barry believes that he is able to get their dad out of prison. He doesn't understand his own brother and while the rare moments were Sebastian is not a complete dick to him, their friendship is still has some emptiness. That emptiness feels ten times worse now with Sebastian unable to converse with his comatose brother.

Alright, so I am well aware that the Sebastian parts of Glee probably don't line up with the timeline of the Flash, so yeah...
