Disclaimer: I do not own any characters in the Flash or anything related to its world.

prologue. "you know we're gonna be legends."

earth 11.

central city. middle of the night.

The night was quiet. A sky without stars, but a blinding moonlight. Streets without screams, only filled with the nice, sweet whistle of the wind. Gentles autumn breezes. No pain, no darkness. No chaos. The city was just like a big ocean without any waves. Calm and deep. Peaceful.

She hated it.

The silence was torturing her; constant reminder of everything she had ever lost. Every hour. Every second.

A constant reminder of his absence.

Suddenly, a slight noise interrupted her dark thoughts. She didn't need to turn around to know what it was. Who it was.

"Yhey're going to do it."

The voice was much calmer than what she expected and she couldn't tell if it was a good thing or a bad one.

"Then that's our shot."

"Our only shot" the voice was getting closer and her whole body tensed up just at the thought of them failing.

They couldn't fail. That wasn't an option. They needed him. She needed him.

"We can't…" suddenly she was feeling weak, terrified of losing him again, losing him forever. Behind her, the silhouette took one more step, catching her wrist. She knew her body was colder than ice but he didn't flinch. Practice.

"I know. We won't."

Finally she turned around, looking at him. His eyes were bright in the shadow of the night.

"Caitlin…"

But she shut him up with a cold glare. Frost's glare.

"No. Not now. Now we need to be strong Vibe." her fear somehow had turned into anger "There is no way in hell I'm letting him be stuck in the SpeedForce forever. This is the moment we were waiting for. So drop the pep talk and focus." Now she was completely cold -eyes, voice, skin, hair- and Vibe felt his hands froze. He quickly dropped her wrist to avoid frostbite "are you ready?"

She needed him to succeed. They were a team. It would take both of them to bring him home.

"You know I am" his grin was confident "and you know you didn't need your i-am-going-to-freeze-you-to-death- move to motivate me".

Eyes still focused and cold, Frost couldn't stop her slight smile.

"Just wanted to make sure."

Vibe nodded and with a smooth move opened a bright blue breach.

"We're a family. We protect each other"

"Until the end." she finished.

Vibe smiled.

"Let's get him back."

And so, they both walked towards the light. And they disappeared.
