Ayana moved closer to Leonard, intertwining their fingers as the stranger from Earth-X stared at them. They were all being marched to a trench where they would be executed.
"I hope Joe got Calla out of the city alright," She worried, Leonard squeezed her hand gently.
"He did. You can't think that way," He whispered to her before turning his attention back to the incoming group of soldiers. At the front of the line stood Captain Quentin Lance.
Ayana glanced back over to the man that had been staring at them, he was the only one not from their earth.
"Ready!" She watched the doppelganger of Sara's father begin, as his troops aimed guns at them, "Aim!" A familiar blast of blue crossed into her vision.
Her eyes met the assailants and she about passed out, "I hate fire."
"About time!" The man who had been staring at them announced, Ayana's eyes flickered between the man and her husband's doppelganger.
"What the fuck is going on here?" All attention was turned to her.
"Ayana Allen," Her husband's doppelganger said in awe, however, the Evil Captain Lance interrupted.
"Kill them all!"
"Flash, Arrow! Sara!" Ayana motioned towards the trench below them, they nodded.
Everyone lunged for the trench as bullets flew around them.
"You were cutting it close," The strange man said to the Snart doppelganger.
"I thought it was great timing, really enjoyed the pun."
Ayana felt as her husband pulled her closer to him, uncomfortable with there being another him in her vicinity.
"So," Barry said, "You're Leonard Snart's doppelganger."
"No, I'm Leonard Snart, but you can call me Leo." He looked him up and down, "That is a fantastic outfit, did you make that?"
Everyone shared a confused look, "I'm Leonard Snart," Ayana's husband argued, getting his doppelganger's attention.
"And he'd kill anyone that called him Leo," Ayana added.
"So this is what it's like meeting your doppelganger," Leo mused to himself.
"Leo," The strange man interrupted.
"Oh right, time to make you shine buddy."
"Uh, you might, uh want to close your eyes," The group shared an uncertain look.
"Why?" Jax asked.
Ayana's eyes widened as she watched the man light up like the sun. "I'll never get used to metahumans," She muttered.
Her Leonard chuckled, wrapping his arm around her waist, "Me neither."
It took the team a few moments to adjust to the brightness, "He just answered your question," Stein muttered, as everyone watched the glowing man in the sky.
After taking out the soldiers that were after them, he returned to the ground, "C'mon let's go."
"Where are we going?"
"Our base."
"They have a base, alrighty," Ayana muttered to herself, following her friend's.
"And who are you?" Sara asked.
"I was thinking the same thing," The glowing man retorted.
"You might have to tell us on the way."

"So," Leo began, "Ayana Snart?"
Ayana smiled eyeing the wedding ring on her hand, "That would be me," She turned to him, "What happened to your Ayana?"
"What makes you think I had an Ayana?" Leo mused.
"The way you looked at me," His amused smile fell, "And It's not my first rendezvous on another Earth."
"She was killed by the Führer." Ayana nodded, letting the information sink in. "Ayana Allen was my first love, I couldn't even look at another woman after she died."
"My Leonard almost died, I thought he was dead." Ayana began, "It was unbearable, in fact the emotional pain sent me into labor." She chuckled.
"You have a child?" Leo asks.
"Yeah," A soft smile lit up her face, "Callantha, she's one."
"Doesn't seem possible," Leo stated.
"It didn't seem possible to me either," It was like Ayna was off in her own. Leo couldn't help but look at her and see his lost love.
She knew she wasn't his Ayana, but he couldn't help himself.
He stepped forward, kissing her softly on the lips, "What the hell are you doing?" Ayana jerked away from him.
"I just needed to, one last time." Leo sighed.
"I'm not-" She was interrupted by her husband's familiar hot-headed temper.
"You kissed my wife!"
"She was going to be my wife!" Leo argued.
"I'm not that Ayana Allen!" Ayana argued hands clenched into fists.
"You aren't Ayana Allen at all!" Both Leonards argued, turning back to one another.
"This is my princess," Leonard's tone was deadly, "If you want yours back, I will gladly help you join her."
"Len," Ayana placed her hand on his arm, looking deep into his eyes. "I'm right here." He calmed down slightly.
Ayana grabbed his hand, lightly tracing her initial, hoping it would calm him down further.
It did.
It also got Leo's attention.
"What is that?"
"That is our bond." Ayana said as she showed Leo her initials, "Our soulmark. It's what leads us to our soulmates."
"Wow," Leo sighed, dropping his head. "So soulmates are real?"
"It doesn't matter if you have a soulmark or not, soulmates will always be real." Ayana looked down at her soulmark again, "We'll always be connected in some form."
Leonard's face softened, pulling his wife into him, "It doesn't matter what Earth or reality we're in, I'll always find you."
Leo couldn't help but smile at them, once upon a time he was them.
He's seen the potential of what could have been. Now that he was looking at a whole other reality, the possibilities seemed endless.
Ayana met his eyes, "Remember this," She gave him a small smile, "In the end, it'll always be Ayana and Leonard, always."
Leo nodded, "Next time, I won't lose you." He turned his gaze to his doppelganger, a sincere look in his eyes, "Take care of her, you only get one Ayana."
Leonard smiled down at his wife, "Don't I know it."
