Hello once again readers. I have no idea why im writing this at 2 in the morning, but there isnt enough of this ship and I want to write it. Mostly for myself but for the site as well of course.

For those waiting for OTCHADH, I'm so sorry, but I will get around to It, I promise.

I don't own Young Justice but I do own my original plot and OC's

What If Wally wasn't so closed minded towards magic? The entire universe would change.


Chapter 1

Mount Justice

We currently find our young team of heroes sparring against each other, except for Wally that is, who was sitting down with his broken arm as he was being waited on by Captain Marvel. Wally had no choice, the Captains child like mind was too easy to manipulate.

"Good work team" said Black Canary, stepping in, causing the team to start.

"You have all had a productive week" she continued.

"Yeah sure, except for kid malingerer" commented Artemis

"Hey! Arm broken in combat against the Injustice League here!" Wally said, waving his cast around.

'Recognized Zatara-11' the computer announced as the zeta-tube flashed yellow and a man dressed as a classical magician who immediately went to the computer and started typing.

'Recognized, Zatanna Zatara- A03, authorization, Zatara-11' the computer said before the zeta tube once again flashed and a young girl with black hair stepped out, dressed in possibly a school uniform.

"Zatanna, this is the team" Zatara said, gesturing to said team.

M'gann flew over and tried to introduce herself before Robin rudely butted in and introduced the entire team for them.

"Hey Rob, next time let us introduce ourselves" Wally said, feeling somewhat annoyed by the boys rudeness.

"Heh, sorry" Robin said shyly, backing off.

Wally zoomed over to Zatanna and re-introduced himself.

"Just like Boy Blunder over there said, I'm Wally. The fastest kid alive" Wally said as lightning crackled around him. (A/N I know this doesn't actually happen in canon (except for the CW's Flash), but it just adds effect, and I will be using it for the story)

Zatanna was a little shocked by the lighting crackling around the boy.

"That lightning, is it magic or does it have to do with your speed?" she asked innocently.

"Well, my theory is that the lightning happens while moving through the air as fast as we do, but there always is the possibility of being magic" Wally said, in truth he didn't really think that it was magic, but he didn't want to dash the possibility.

Zatanna's shy mood evaporated when he said that. She was glad that at least one person on the team that believed in the magical arts. Not like the other speedster Zatara had told her about, who dashed everything magical and chalked it up to science.

"Well, If you're interested, I could help you figure out what that lightning is" she offered, hoping he would accept so she could be 'accepted' into the team.

"I'm up for anything babe" Wally said with his usual flirtatiousness, before being moved aside by Artemis.

"Sorry for Wally. I'm Artemis" Artemis introduced herself

"Why should you be sorry?" Zatanna asked,

"Wait, you mean you don't mind Wally flirting with you?" Artemis asked, and Zatanna blushed.

"Flirting? Him? Me?" Zatanna said, flustered from the proposition

"Congratulations Wally, you seem to have found a girl that doesn't mind your flirting"

Kid Flash laughed nervously before realizing what she said and glaring a her, causing Artemis to laugh.

"I'm M'gann" M'gann said, breaking the tensions and moving on with introductions.

"Conner"

"I'm Kaldur"

"And I'm Robin"

"Alright, now that introductions are through, why don't you guys show Zatanna around, give her a tour of the cave" Black Canary suggested

"Yeah" Zatanna agreed

"Alright then, come on!" M'gann announced with a giggle pulling Zatanna along. Once they got a suitable distance away they started chatting.

"So KF, you really don't know what that lightning is?" Asked Superboy

"No, I mean, there's really no way that I could find out" replied Wally

"But what about Zatanna said, she said she could hello you" added M'gann

All eyes turned to Zatanna causing her to smile.

"I can try. I can try to identify the lightning with a spell" she said

"Well then go ahead." Wally said, and everyone watched on in comical attentiveness. They were all curious about Wally's lightning now.

"I just need you to generate the lightning" Zatanna stated

"Alright then!" Wally exclaimed before vibrating his body as fast as he could, causing small bolts of lightning to arc around his body.

Zatanna closed her eyes and raised her hands, palms facing Wally as she tried to focus, everybody watched on the side with anticipation.

"I can't cast it on you. You're vibrating is changing you density" she stated while lowering her hands.

"So what then? You can't do it?" Wally asked, a little disappointed.

"Well, not while your vibrating like that, but if you could somehow generate the lightning without moving I could" Zatanna stated before Wally's face contorted in thought.

"It's definitely something I've never tried before. But I'll give it a shot!" Wally exclaimed before he took a stance, and his muscles visibly tightened.

Wally was visibly straining, his body shaking. Right when everybody was starting to think it couldn't be done, yellow lightning started arcing around Wally. If anyone had been paying attention, they would have seen his cast start to crack.

Zatanna acted quickly and focused her attention on casting the spell.

"Yfitnedi eht ecruos fo siht ygrene!" Zatanna shouted as her eyes glowed and a glowing seal appeared before her hands.

"The Lightning... it definitely isn't natural. The lightning is being generated of off Wally's body, but Wally is drawing upon some kind of energy. It's coming from an unknown source. Possibly a magical pocket dimension, or another dimension entirely. I can't identify the source. I'm sorry." Zatanna stated before deactivating her spell.

Kaldur was about to say something before they all noticed something, Wally wasn't stopping.

"Wally. You may stop now" stated Kaldur.

But Wally just kept straining.

"Wally!" Robin shouted at his friend, trying to gain his attention.

Wally snapped his eyes open as he realized that it was over.

As Wally relaxed his muscles, and the lightning ceased, Blood started dripping out of Wally's nose and his eyes rolled into the back of his head. And his cast exploded into dust.

"Wally!" M'gann cried out before rushing to Wally's side, just as he started pivoting forward.

The entire team rushed to his side right behind her.

"Wally! Wally!" Robin called out to him, trying to wake him up, his eyes white as his pupils were no longer visible.

Slowly, his eyes rolled back into place and he groaned, breaking out of his friends grasps and kneeling on the ground, clutching his head.

Wally shakily stood up, his legs threatening to give out, and he leaned his back against the wall.

"My head" Wally groaned

"Are you okay?" asked Kaldur

"Yeah, yeah i'm fine" assured Wally.

"Wally, I'm so sorry, If I had known that would have happened I never would have suggested it" Zatanna apologized.

Wally took a shaky but more stable step towards her and put his hand on her shoulder.

"It's not you're fault, you had no way of knowing. So don't go blaming yourself" Wally said, giving her a caring grin.

"Wally, is your arm still broken?" asked Robin

Wally looked down at the arm that used to be in a cast and moved it around.

"No. Its all better" Wally replied.

"Well, for now, try to refrain from attempting that gain" advised Kaldur

"You don't need to tell me again" stated Wally.

"You gonna be okay Wally?" Conner asked

"Yeah. I'm still a little dizzy. But that will go away in a bit."

"Well, if you say so" M'gann hesitantly said.

"Let's finish this tour. I wan't to lie down" Wally said

"We aren't actually gonna take a tour are we?" asked Zatanna

"No. We are hunting down that robot!" Conner stated

"Yes. We are" Kaldur agreed

"And what about new girl?" asked Artemis

"I'm sure she won't tell" Robin assured

"I can't tell... not if you kidnap me" Zatanna replied, ending the sentence with a mischievous tone.

"Oh she's gonna fit in great" added Artemis


Aboard the Bioship

"Where are we going? Batman is the worlds greatest detective, and he has searched for Tornado and Morrow in every logical location, if we are gonna do better, we need an illogical solution. A truly dumb idea" Robin said, turning to face Wally as he finished his sentence. As Wally looked around, the entire team including Zatanna were looking at him expectantly.

"As a matter of fact" Wally stated


"Warden Strange owed us a favor for stopping last months prison break. He's given us five minutes with you" M'gann said, staring down Ivo.

"Spill Ivo! How do we find T.O Morrow and his reds!?" demanded Superboy

"And how would I know how to find Morrow?" asked Ivo coyly

"Because, and here's a truly dumb idea. You're Morrows biggest competitor in the evil android game. Who better to keep track of what he's up to, and where" Wally said, rather proud of his ingeniously idiotic idea."

"Ah I see your point. So let me rephrase Why in the world would I tell you how to find Morrow?" Ivo said, attempting to strike a bargain.

"He knows. Do what you must" stated Kaldur

As M'gann tried to use her telepathy on Ivo he just laughed and leaned back in his chair.

"Oh please, it's not as if I've never faced a telepath before" Ivo said

Suddenly, Zatanna was by his side. 'Trulb tuo S'worrom eurt noitacol!' Zatanna chanted before Ivo spilled his guts.

"Morrow is in a secret underground base beneath Yellow Stone National Park 100 meters South of old Faithful" Morrow without hesitation.

Zatanna smirked at her successful spell as all of the team stared disbelieving at her.

"Wait! What just happened!?" Ivo shouted.


"Block out all external communication" Kaldur ordered

"Soon Canary and Zatara, and Batman too I imagine, will know of our visit with Professor Ivo. We haven't much time"

"Look. I'm trying to be all nonchalant here" Robin said, hoping for someone to respond. No one did.

"I think we are all trying to get a handle on your powers. Could you teleport us to Morrow, or Morrow to a cell. Or force his bots to surrender?"

"Or create peace on earth for all time. Zatara couldn't even do all that, and I'm no where near my dad's level. I need to know a spell cold, or else have time to prep it. Plus all magic requires energy, which usually has to come from within. I just can't make the impossible happen at will" Zatanna said, looking down at her hand, with a hint of sadness.

"Don't get down on yourself babe. What you did back there to Ivo was awesome. We might not have been able to get anything out of him without you" Wally said trying to cheer her up. And it worked, but before she could respond Superboy interjected.

"What's our E.T.A to Yellow Stone!? I'm way past ready to stuff Tornado into a trash compactor!" Superboy said with his anger showing.

"Are you so certain he betrayed us?" Kaldur asked

"Aren't you!?" Superboy responded.

"I am not convinced. And even so, that makes him but the victim of his creators programming . Certainly he deserves a chance to prove he's more than the weapon others designed him to be" Kaldur stated, making sure Superboy saw what he was getting at.


Yellow Stone National Park

"Stealth Mode" Kaldur advised as he and all of the team switched to stealth.

"I recommend you stay behind" Kaldur said, approaching Zatanna.

"That an order?"

"No. You must do as you see fit" Kaldur responded.

"Good" 'Emit ot yrt tuo eht wen kool!' Zatanna chanted before smoke covered her form before revealing she was now wearing a feminine variation of her father's costume, with a white shirt, bow tie and gloves, a low cut yellow vest, a black blazer, black mini-shorts with gray stockings and black boots reaching midway up her calves.

"That's hot" Wally muttered, not taking his eyes off of Zatanna, unfortunately, everyone heard him.

"Quit drooling Baywatch" Artemis said before slapping him on the back, making him chuckle nervously and scratch the back of his head.

"Heh, sorry" Wally muttered once again, and when he looked back up at Zatanna, she slyly winked at him, causing him to blush, and thankfully, his mask covered up most of it. 'Most'.

"Move out!" Aqualad ordered as he took the lead and ran out of the Bioship

In a matter of minutes, they came to a clearing and Robin looked at a screen.

"Ivo was right, there is something down there" Robin stated as the group moved out of cover before a blast of wind came out of nowhere.

Red Tornado emerged from the sky and funneled the air towards the team.

"Why Tornado! Why are you doing this!?" shouted Miss Martian. But Tornado didn't respond.

"Who cares why! Nail him!" Superboy shouted before jumping into action

"Superboy! Maneuver 7!" called out Aqualad as Superboy turned around and wove his hands together and as Soon as Aqualad stepped on his hands Superboy flung him upwards towards Red Tornado, who immediately delivered a fist right to the face of Aqualad.

Artemis tried to shoot a few arrows at Red Tornado who just used the wind to send them back.

"That does it red! You're not the only spin doctor around here!" Wally shouted before drawing on his speed and turning to create a tornado of his own. But unlike all the other times Wally had done this, Lightning arced throughout the tornado, not just around his body.

Miss Martian tried to deliver a fist towards Red Tornado but Red just grabbed her wrist and flung her down the eye of Wally's tornado.

Zatanna ran up and tried to cast a spell but she couldn't find the words before Red Tornado grabbed her by the throat and flung her to the ground.

"Nice performance Tornado. But that's all it was. I have all of your memories and a next gen processor" Red Volcano stated before picking up the ground where Red Tornado had blown a message into the sand. Red Volcano crushed the massive chunk of rock and flung it at the team.

Superboy and Aqualad jumped at the rocks head on while M'gann flew out of the way.

Wally was about to race off before he decided against it and grabbed Zatanna and Robin and carried them out of the way.

"Thanks KF" said Robin as he was set down.

"No Problem" KF responded before turning back and running at super speed towards Red Volcano Followed by robin.

Kid Flash raced towards Red Volcano who was busy fending off Superboy.

"I have Red Tornado's memories! I know all fo your moves!" Red Volcano shouted

"That a fact!?" Kid Flash asked before driving his fists at lightning speed into the lower back of red Volcano. And unconsciously to him, he channeled the lightning that usually arced around his body and focused it around his fists.

The Lightning shocked Red Volcano and caused him to freeze just long enough for Superboy to land a devastating punch and Robin to hit the android with an explosive birdarang.

"You may know our moves! But you've never fought us as a team!" Superboy shouted.

'Emoks emoceb a dlofdnilb!' Zatanna chanted as the smoke from Robins birdarang wrapped around Red Volcano's eyes.

"And besides. Red Tornado has never seen my moves" shouted Zatanna before Wally appeared right next to her.

"And I bet you've got some good ones" Wally said flirtatiously.

"Now's not the time for flirting Wally!" yelled Artemis as she continued to shoot various arrows at Red Volcano.

"Sorry!" Wally shouted back before racing back towards Red Tornado.

'Etaerc gninhgil ot kcohs der onaclov!' chanted Zatanna as a ball of lightning formed in front of her palms and was sent at Red Volcano. But as it shot towards the android it veered of coarse and headed straight towards Wally. In the second before it made impact, fear filled Zatanna's eyes. She had just messed up big time.

As the lightning made contact with Wally he screamed out in pain before tripping and tumbling several meters.

"Wally!" shouted M'gann as she watched her friend tumble over himself.

Zatanna ran to Wally's side.

"Wally!" she called out to him as she kneeled down by his side and examined him. He was seemingly unconscious.

Before she could touch him, a stray bolt of lightning zapped her.

"What the-!" Zatanna exclaimed

Suddenly, Wally's eyes snapped open and electricity flowed through his veins, visible in his eyes.

"Wally! Are you okay? I'm so sorry" Apologized Zatanna

"Wally just stood up as if nothing ever happened.

"One minute. Back in a flash" Wally said as he set his sights on Red Tornado and a smirk rose to the surface.

Wally tapped into his speed and charged it up without running. In truth, he was just trying to look cool in front of Zatanna, but he felt as if some sort of barrier inside of him was cracked, and he just needed to break the rest of it down.

Zatanna watched as lightning coursed around Wally's body, he was doing what he had done back at the cave, building up lightning without moving.

"C'MON!" Wally roared as he shot off towards Red Volcano. Zatanna wouldn't be able to tell since she was new, but Wally was moving a lot faster than his usual pace, on top of that, he was exuding more electricity that he usually.

Wally rocketed towards Red Tornado, time slowed down even more than usual. He saw Superboy being thrown through the air, he saw Miss Martian picking up large rocks and throwing them at Red Volcano. Aqualad was slashing at Red Volcano with his water swords Artemis and Robin were shooting arrows and throwing birdarangs.

As Wally neared the android, he cocked back his fist and pushed himself as hard as he could to go faster, his body responded, a loud boom resounded through the area and the next thing everyone knew, Red Volcano was flying back with a large dent in his face and Wally was standing where the android had just been with his arm out in front of him.

"Meatbag!" Red Volcano roared before lasers erupted from his eyes and shot into the sky as lave erupted from the ground

'He's activating a stage two eruption! If it gets to stage three, kiss the hemisphere goodbye!' Kid Flash warned through the psycic link

'Hit him from all sides!' ordered Aqualad and jumped at the android just to have a boulder flying at him.

Superboy launched at him with his fist cocked back but was caught by the wrist.

Miss Martian tried to attack him with her telepathy but he just caused the ground around her to open up.

'M'gann!' Super boy shouted through the link but Red Volcano had grabbed her by her cloak

'Ekoms dna srorrim... Etaerc Dik Hsalf snoisulli!' Zatanna chanted before columns of smoke condensed and turned into copies of Kid Flash.

"I use a scaled down version when I want to sneak out of the house" Zatanna commented with a happy tone.

All of the Wally's charged at the android whe sent rocks flying at them. Suddenly, one Flash appeared behind Red Volcano and took off with Miss Martian, dropping her off.

Before Red Volcano could react, a stream of water smashed into the android, sending him down into the lava.

"Nice!" commented Robin towards Aqualad

"It was not me" replied Aqualad before one of Red Tornado's siblings, known as Red Torpedo, flew into the air, via cape of water and set another set of streams of water at Red Volcano who emerged out of the lava.

As Red Volcano tried to raise out of the ground, Red Tornado blasted through the pillar of earth he had created and sent him back into the lava.

Once again, Red Volcano emerged only to have blasts of fire hit him.

The sibling known as Red Inferno, or Firebrand, flew into the fray and locked hands with Red Volcano before twisting him over and with the aid of Red Torpedo, held him under the lava, as all three started to melt. Red Tornado flew down and landed on Red Volcano, sending him deeper into the lava.

"Father would be so disappointing" said Red Volcano.

Superboy tackled Red Tornado out of the lava, but his legs were gone.

"Robin, we are on the verge of a stage three volcanic eruption! There's no turning back from that! We need to vent pressure, and fast! The ash cloud bring a world wide nuclear winter unless we divert it. You need to triangulate around the pressure points!" Wally ordered

"There, there, and there!" Robin said, and Artemis shot an arrow off that divided into three rockets to hit the pressure points.

"Alright, since Red is out of commission I'll have to create a funnel!" Wally said as he got into a classic track position.

"Are you sure Wally? You've never been able to go fast enough to create a tornado this big" warned Robin

"Don't worry Rob, have faith" Wally said before his face contorted in concentration and lightning started coursing around his body.

"Wait... is he?" asked Artemis

"Wally don't! Last time you did this you hurt yourself!" cried M'gann

"Sorry babe... gotta run!" Wally said before taking off, his image a blur as he ran around the volcano.

M'gann tried to stop him but Conner grabbed her shoulder and stopped her.

"Just let him. He's our only chance" Conner said gently.

Soon, Wally was lapping around the volcano fast enough to create fast winds circling around the volcano, but not fast enough to create a funnel.

"Damn, it's not enough!" Wally cursed to himself. He could still feel that barrier inside, it was still intact, and holding him back.

"C'mon c'mon c'mon c'mon" Wally chanted to himself, and he started running faster.

"It's still not enough. And Wally has got to be pushing himself right now" Robin stated.

"So what do we do?" asked Superboy

"I have an Idea" stated Zatanna

"Wait you do? What is it?" asked Kaldur

"Well, during the fight, I tried to shoot Red Volcano with lightning, but when I cast the spell, the lightning was attracted to Wally, and he absorbed the attack" she stated

"So when he crashed that was you?" asked M'gann.

"Y-yeah" but then he got up, and started running again, and i'm pretty sure he was running faster than this. I even heard a sonic boom."

"Faster than this? But even now he's running faster than he ever has" Robin said

"It could be possible that you...charged Wally with that Lightning. Repeating the situation might be our only chance. Do it" Ordered Kaldur.

Zatanna stepped forward and raised her hands.

"I'm sorry about this Wally" Zatanna stated before her eyes glows.

"Etaerc gninthgil dna repus egrahc dik hsalf!" Zatanna chanted before a ball of lightning, slightly bigger than the last one she created, and a bolt of lightning shot out of it towards the running Wally. And just like before, the lightning was attracted to Wally, and was absorbed.

A loud cry of pain echoed through the area. Everybody winced and Zatanna's faced turned to guilt.

Suddenly, Wally tripped just like before, luckily on their side of the volcano so they saw it happen. Wally tumbled over himself for quite a distance, before a flash of yellow and he grabbed the ground with his hand and flipped back onto his feet and got back to running. He could feel another crack form in the barrier inside himself. As he ran, a sonic boom sounded almost immediately.

"D-did it work?" ask Artemis

"He is going faster, just look" Said Kaldur as he pointed up, and true to his word, a tornado was forming, and funneling the cloud of ash up into the atmosphere and dispersing it.

"He did it!" cheered M'gann, and everyone let out a sigh of relief.

And soon, the entire cloud was dispersed and the lava around them started to cool and harden. And not long after everything had settled down, Wally started slowing down. Eventually, he started heading back to his friends, but before he came within a few feet he slowed down to a human run, and a fell down to one knee. Blood started pouring out of his nose and several blood vessels in his eyes broke.

"Wally!" cried out the team as they ran to their friend, just as he started pitching forward. And darkness over took his mind.


When Wally came to, he was in a white room, which he recognized as the med bay.

When he tried to sit up, his head turned over and he nearly threw up.

"Shit" Wally cursed, and waited until his head cleared.

Once he could think clearly, he slowly got out of bed, as soon as his feet touched the floor, pain shot through his entire body.

"Double shit" Wally cursed again as he leaned against the wall. He needed to find his team.

As soon as he emerged from the room, he heard shouting.

Wally followed the sounds and saw Zatara raging at Black Canary and the team including Zatanna.

"They're good kid's Giovanni, trustworthy Giovane! She will never join this team!" Zatara yelled.

"Why so grumpy old man. She's already one of the team" Wally said, loud enough for everyone to hear, as well as announcing his entrance.

"Wally!" said M'gann worriedly as she flew over to Kid Flash

"How the hell are you awake? You should be sleeping for days"

"How long have I been out?" he asked

"We just got back" replied Kaldur.

"Enough! Zatanna will not join this team!" shouted a still enraged Zatara.

"C'mon old man, without her we would have all died, as well as the planet"

"W-what"

"She gave me the boost I needed to run faster, without her, I wouldn't have been able to funnel the ash cloud into the atmosphere to disperse"

"Regardless-" Zatara said, trying to stay firm.

"Dad. I really enjoyed fighting with them. Please" begged Zatanna. She really wanted to stay.

"Zatanna" said Zatara

"We will tell you the same thing we told the league when they stood in our way" started Wally, and Superboy stepped forward to finish.

"Get on board... or get out of the way!" said Superboy forcefully, breaking the last of Zatara's resolve.

With a sigh, Zatara muttered 'Fine', causing everyone to smile, even Conner cracked a smirk.

"She can join the team for now. But if I deem she isn't ready, I am taking her off" said Zatara

"Fine by us." Artemis.

"Welcome to the team" said Kaldur

Zatanna smiled as everyone greeted her, she turned to look at Wally, who was still using the wall to support him. He just gave her a caring grin before wincing in pain.

"Wally?" Zatanna said, worried for the boy.

Wally's legs nearly gave out on him, but in a flash, his friends were by his side.

"Sorry guys. Guess I shouldn't have gotten out of bed so soon" Wally said as Superboy and Kaldur supported him

"Well, thanks to you, I can officially join the team" said Zatanna returning the caring smile he gave her.

"Why don't we get you back to the med bay" suggested Kaldur before he and Conner carried him back with Robin in tow.

"So Zatanna. You and Wally huh?" asked Artemis suggestively

Zatanna couldn't help but blush, before she regained some composure.

"He is pretty cute" she said back.

"But he's such a dork!" said Artemis with a laugh

"Oh don't tell me you don't have any interest in Robin or Superboy, one's obsessed with suffixes and the other has anger issues.

Suddenly, Artemis and M'gann blushed respectively.

"Oh my!" giggled Zatanna, before Artemis and M'gann joined her.

"It's just funny" said M'gann

"Why's that" asked Zatarra

"I just never imagined Wally to be into Magic" M'gann replied

"Well, you never know, sometimes even the most scientific people can be enchanted by a beautiful sorceress" Zatanna said, and then all three girls just broke into laughter again.

Meanwhile. Zatara was just staring at the three girls deathly pale and his eyes shadowed and mouth gaping open.

"Oh my!" commented Black Canary.

"My Little Girl!" cried out Zatara before clutching his knees and tears comically poured from his eyes.


How's that? I hope you liked it. Once I came upon this ship I fell in love with It, and I said, "Fuck it" and wrote one. I'm planning on writing a chapter directly after this one so I hope you like that as well. I'm really excited about this story, so I hope you enjoy.
