Callie felt herself grow cold as she witnessed her teammate being murdered in front of her. She could feel the anger that was stemming from the rest of the team and she didn't need to look to know that Nate was the most furious of them all. The others might not have known, but she was well aware of the affection that the couple shared for each other.
"Well, if you want something done right!" Snart said, breaking the silence as he reached down to pick up the spear that had fallen to the ground when he had shot Amaya. Callie glowered at the man as she moved her hand, her fingers resting against the dagger that was tucked into the waistband of her jeans.
"Well done, Leonard," Damien said, proud that they had once again worked out on top of the whole situation. He wasn't surprised at this however as they all knew the legends were a useless team of idiots and misfits.
"You bastard. I'll kill you all," Sara snarled, ready to rip his head off with her bear hands. It was one thing for them to have brainwashed Callie, but for them to actually have killed a member of her team? Oh, there was hell to pay for that.
"Actually, I believe that's my line," Snart went flying across the room as Thawne now clutched the spear in his hand again. He smirked at the legends and his former partners while he raised his hand to dangle the spear above the pit. "Now, where were we before I was so rudely interrupted?"
Callie knew what he was about to do before he did it. Maybe that's why she did what she did. Lunging forward, the girl swung her arm out just in time to catch the spear before it fell into the furnace from where the speedster had released it from his hand. She grinned, turning around to smirk at them all as they held their breath.
It happened quickly, but that was to be excepted from Eobard Thawne. One minute she was smirking at the team for somehow managing to prevent the destruction of the spear, and the next minute she was watching the spear go flying down the furnace before her. It took her a second before the pain kicked in and she released why she had released the spear.

Sara yelled loudly, the rest of the team making noises of surprise and anger as Callie stumbled backwards from the furnace, her back hitting against the floor as she screamed out in pain.
She hadn't released the spear. In fact, she was sure her hand was still clutched around it. The only issue was this: her hand was no longer attached to her body. The girl whimpered as Ray fell to the ground beside her, wrapping his jacket tightly around her bleeding stump of an arm as Thawne dropped the small dagger she had been clutching on the ground beside him.
"Well," the man said, brushing his hands together as he looked around at everyone who was glaring at him with undeniable hatred and anger. "I guess we're done here."
"You know the really swell thing about the Spear being destroyed?" Damien said, breaking the silence that had fallen - except from the yelps that were coming from Callie. Sara wanted to move and hold her, but she knew that there was nothing that she could do. Ray was the best one for her at this moment.
"Now you can't stop us from killing you," Malcolm snarled, trying to also ignore the sounds of his daughter's cries of pain. He had lost a hand once, and he knew the severe pain that came with it.
"Oh, please. Don't insult my intelligence. Even at your fastest, you're moving in slow motion to me," the man told them, motioning to where Callie was tucked against Ray as the man continued to keep pressure on the large open wound that the man had caused. "Just take Camilla here as living proof. Well, living for now anyway." He smirked, making a clear reference to the fact that the girl could die from blood loss if they didn't stop the wound from bleeding soon.
"Except they're not alone. I say we go down fighting," Sara snarled, her eyes flickering to Callie as she let her hand rest on the gun that was in the holster on her hip.
"You kill one of us, we kill all of you," Jax snarled, ready to unleash all hell on the man that had changed his life and made Stein hate him too.
"For Amaya," Nate finished, his mind constantly replaying the scene in his head. She was dead, gone. There was nothing that he could ever do that would save her now. He had failed her.

"Don't. Even if you survive my men, you'll never survive me, not without powers or weapons. And the truth is, I don't want to see any more of you dead. Not out of sentiment, of course. No, no, quite the opposite. But because it is so delicious, knowing that you'll be forced to live your lives in a reality that I Well, that we created.
You will walk this world knowing that something isn't quite right, that for all your trying you only made things worse, and no one will ever believe you when you tell them about all the sacrifices you made and how close you came to being Legends. Now, that sounds like a fitting punishment to me. What do you think, Professor Stein?"
"I don't care what you do to them, as long as I never have to see Mr. Jackson again."
Jax sighed, a tear running down his face as he looked at his other half. There was a dull pain in his chest as the man turned on his heels and left, not a single thought for the boy that cried for him.
"You're free to go," Thawne said, looking around at the Legends. "Let that serve as a reminder." He pointed to Callie, the girl turning a sickly pale colour from the loss of blood that she was experiencing. She shivered in Ray's arms, the warmth in her body slowing being reduced.
"You're just gonna let them walk?" Damien yelled, confused as to what Thawne was trying to prove.
"Be glad I'm letting you and your fellow traitors do the same. And the next time any of you get what you think is a smart idea, remember this grace. And the fact I could kill any of you in the blink of an eye."

"How is she?" Jax asked as Sara wiped a cold cloth across Callie's head once more, the girl currently passed out on the couch in Nate's mom's basement. She gripped one of her limp hands with her own, not taking her eyes off the girl as Ray answered for Sara.
"Mick helped me seal the wound for now with his heat gun, but the pain of it knocked her out. She needs proper medical help, the type only Gideon can do. There's only so much we can do for her," Ray murmured softly to everyone, ignoring the way Sara tensed as he said the last sentence. There was no point in sugar coating it. They were screwed.
"I can't believe that's it. I refuse to believe that this is it!" Jax exclaimed, unable to process everything that had just happened. They had lost Amaya, they had lost Grey, they had lost the Spear and they were probably going to end up losing Callie at any given moment now. It just wasn't fair. They had done everything that Rip had told them to do, but nothing had worked out for them at all.
"Without the Spear, there's no way we can undo any of this," Ray reminded them all, his hands clenched in front of him as he looked at the blood that had dried on them.
"There is one way. Time travel," Sara bluntly said, not caring about any of the rules anymore. Amaya was dead, Callie was basically dead if they didn't find Rip soon. Screw the rules.
"What do you mean?"
"We go back in time to 1916, and we stop the Legion from ever getting the Spear of Destiny in the first place," she spoke, no question in her voice. There was no other option for Sara, and she didn't care about the consequences anymore.
"No, we are not supposed to change events we participated in and if we do, we risk time folding in on itself!" Jax reminded her, but one look at Callie on the couch had him rethinking his decision. The girl needed them more than ever. Any thoughts of breaking time suddenly flew out of his head, knowing that it would be worth it for her.
"Even if we weren't worried about messing with time, we can't go anywhere or anywhen. We don't even know where the Waverider is." Ray pointed out, not disagreeing with Sara's idea but simply pointing out the flaw. "If it even exists in this reality."
"Well, if it does, there's one person who knows where it is. We just have to find him." There was a pause before Sara let the two words fall from her lips. "For Amaya."
