Wally West-League of Shadows
Wally West life story except his mother was also in League of Shadows but no one knows that or suspects it because she’s a quiet and frail lady who puts up with Rudy.
But the only reason she puts up with Rudy is to make sure her son is safe (safe as he can be, I guess..) from her husband. And After Barry and Iris take in Wally (at 10 yo) she leaves Rudy to go back to the League to continue her training or duties or whatever.
So one day (as the Flash) Wally is fighting with the Bat-Family (it was supposed to be a hangout with JUST Dick but he got roped in) against the League when Talia recognizes Wally (Mary took him to the League when he was super young to introduce him to Talia, but a lot of his childhood is suppressed. Thanks Rudy!!) and they have a moment that reminds me of the song “Once Upon A Dream” by Lana Del Ray and everyone is totally confused.
Especially Wally because Talia leaves with no explanation and he’s too confused to even go after her, because what do you mean you “recognize me from when I was a baby”?? I literally have no idea who you are other than the brief understanding Dick gave me??
So Dick goes behind Bruce’s back to help Wally find the answers to his suppressed memories , even bringing along the rest of the Fab Five (optional, they could be in the sequel or just be mentioned). But along the way of their adventure there’s conflict and next thing you know Wally is in the League with his mother, trying to convince himself he’s always wanted a relationship with his far-too-quiet-and-self-absorbed mother.
Dick tries to pull Wally away from the League, but when that doesn’t work he begs Bruce, Damian, and even Jason to talk to Talia to get Wally out of there because he just doesn’t belong! They agree for Dick’s sake, and Talia and Wally finally have a conversation. Talia answers everything for Wally until he finally has a grasp on his early childhood and agrees to leave because Talia is right, his mother is not his mother and never really was. He has his mom, Aunt Iris, and his dad, Uncle Barry, who are more than enough.
And as he returns to makeup with Dick, he gets a letter from Talia, saying how much she was proud of Wally’s short but well-done training, and that she would love to secretly continue. Wally agrees because there’s still a small part of him who wants to be connected to his biological mother’s past.
