Leonard Snart has a reputation at one bar. Don't even try to get him to sing.
If you do? Then you leave in a coffin of ice.

Sebastian Smythe has a reputation. He always sings.

---------------

"Ok, it's that time of the night, who is the lucky person or people to provide a short song for us?!" The Dj shouted through the sound system.

Honestly, Snart did not know why he sticks around for this. He won't sing and they know it, yet it's automatic and chosen at the card you get when you enter the building, no matter the time of day.

"It is... 145!" The Dj shouted.

Nope, not his card.

But it was someone else's card.

Barry looked down on the card in his hand. That was his number read out. He stood up from his seat, making himself present as the one who would be singing. He felt hundreds of eyes peer at him, judging him already.

It's been a while since he has sung to a crowd. Don't get him wrong though, he loves to be able to have the chance to sing to a crowd. He just has not done it since high school really, that drunk one did not count, no one was sober enough to remember, let alone on Catlin was the only known person to hear it.

"We also have a second person tonight. A... Duet of sorts," the Dj shouted through the room again. "It's number... 157!"

Snart stood up.

...

Silence.

Absolute silence.

Fear bled from the Dj, how he hoped he was not about to leave in ice.

Snart just shrugged.

Fine with it.

...

When does that ever happen?

Barry looked at Snart carefully. It was obvious that he never normally sings and that people would be feeling cold if they tried to get him to sing. Why is it different this time? Was it because of him?

When both got onto the stage, Snart whispered one thing to him, "let's see how good you really are." Before he turned and faced the Dj as the man chose a suitable song.

"I hope one of you can sing high, for the streets are filled with led filled rain. I give you 'Partners in Crime'!" The Dj shouted out before he started the music.

You'll never take us alive
We swore that death will do us part
They'll call our crimes a work of art
You'll never take us alive
We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners
Partners in crime
Partners in crime

Both Barry and Snart glanced at each other, they did not realise that the two of them would be able to reach the correct parts needed for the song.

This, the tale of, reckless love, living a life of crime on the run
I brush to a gun to paint these states green and red
Everybody freeze, nobody move
Put the money in the bag, or we will shoot
Empty out the vault and me and my doll will be on our way

Snart had his smirk while Barry felt his start to appear as he became Sebastian again.

Our paper faces flood the streets
And if the heat comes close enough to burn then we'll play with fire, 'cause

Mick was cheering the loudest at that point in time. I wonder why?

You'll never take us alive
We swore that death will do us part
They'll call our crimes a work of art
You'll never take us alive
We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners
Partners in crime
Partners in crime

Sebastian was back, his smirk in place.

Here we find our omnipotent outlaws fall behind the grind tonight
Left unaware that the lone store owner won't go down without a fight
Where we gonna go, he's got us pinned
Baby, I'm a little scared
Now, don't you quit
He's sounded the alarm, I hear the sirens closing in

Snart was heavily surprised, Barry had a smirk across his face that would seem correct to belong on his own face.

Our paper faces flood the streets
And if the heat comes close enough to burn then we're burning this place to the ground 'cause

Mick was up on his feet cheering. Snart sang out darkly, an almost evil glow appearing across his face.

You'll never take us alive
We swore that death will do us part
They'll call our crimes a work of art
You'll never take us alive
We'll live like spoiled royalty, lovers and partners
Partners in crime

Snart's voice rang out through the room.

CCDP Police department
Come out with your hands up
We have the place surrounded
Put your weapons down, put your weapons down
Ready men? Aim... Fire!

Both men on stage were surprised when the bar crowd spoke out as one, filling in for the police.

The skies are black with lead-filled rain
A morbid painting on display
This is the night the young love died
Buried at each other's side

Both their voices took on a different tone, Snart's darker while Barry's being quicker and up front.

You never took us alive
We swore that death would do us part
So now we haunt you in the dark
You never took us alive
We live as ghosts among these streets
Lovers and partners
Partners in crime
Partners in crime

It was filled with solid anticipation, the lyrics echo through the room.

Partners in crime

The final mix of the voice's brought the room to a standstill. The mixture demanded everyone's attention. The strength, the power was phenomenal. The pure harmonized mix was breathtaking. Then the length the pair held for, stopping simultaneously like at a drop of a gun drew heartbeats to a stop.

Silence ran through the whole bar.

Everyone looked on in wonder at the pair on the stage neither of them was out of breath, yet they all knew that the performance was real and filled with dominating power.

Applause rang around, echoing through the bones of the people and the room alike. Whistles, catcalls. Shouts for more. They all continued with the applause.

"That was Leonard Snart, Captain Cold and..." The Dj called out through the systems. After Barry quickly whispered a name to him he continued, "and Sebastian Smythe!"

Both men walked off the stage side by side. Barry followed Snart over to his table, wanting to see why he chose to sing with him. When they reached the table, the two were greeted by Mick and Lisa.

"When have you ever sang at a bar like this?" Lisa asked Snart.

"When have the questioner not left in ice?" Mick asked him.

"Thought it would be time to sing this time," Snart shrugged.

"Yeah, why did you really though. You are not one to normally go ahead and sing?" Barry asked this time. "Don't give that answer that you thought it was time to again. It won't work." Barry then added.

"Maybe there was finally a chance to see just how good the opposition is." Snart shrugged sitting down on his seat.

"Opposition?" Lisa asked.

"He's CCPD, under a false name. I don't know why. They could recognise his face anyway," Snart replied before taking a drink from his now slightly warm beer.

"That's not all," Mick said, knowing when his friend only tells half the truth.

"Oh, I'm also The Flash," Barry shrugged.

"What?" Mick and Lisa both asked.

"I'm The Flash," Barry said, holding up a vibrating hand for them to see while also making sure that no one else could see it. Good that this table to away from the other people's' point of view.

"Ah... Lenny...! Why did you not tell us!" Lisa whined.

"That he knows who is the man beneath the mask is?" Barry said, smirking slightly. "Also, not a fake name. A name I was adopted into when I was in high school." Barry shrugged to Snart.

"You're adopted?" Mick asked, curious.

"Yeah, mother was murder when I was young, father sent to prison having been thought to be her killer. I was then fostered, but the bullies went after me to bad. I was hospitalised. After the CCPD did some digging, it was found out that I did have some living relatives left. They adopted me and I became Sebastian Smythe. As Sebastian Smythe I built up a reputation, soon becoming a Crime Boss." Barry shrugged sitting at an empty chair at their table.

"You, the Scarlet Speedster, was a Crime Boss?" Snart asked, perking up in interest.

"A well known one," he replied.

A loud scream of singing ran through the building as the next person went up from some voluntary karaoke.

"Now, how about its time we put an end to that racket and save our ears for the night?" Barry asked, before walking away and up to the Dj.

"We have Sebastian Smythe back up with a male acoustic version of Zombie!" The Dj shouted the moment the other singer stopped and Sebastian walked onto the stage.

Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence, caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?

He sang low and slow, keeping his face

But you see, it's not me
It's not my family

His speed slowly increased his voice raising.

In your head, in your head, they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are crying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie

His voice ran around the room, all attention on him.

Another mother's breaking
Heart is taking over
When the violence causes silence
We must be mistaken
It's the same old theme
Since nineteen-sixteen

He slowed down again.

In your head, in your head, they're still fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs
And their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head, they are dying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie
What's in your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie-ie-ie, oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh ie-ie oh
oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh-oh ie-ie

His voice blew loud and proud through the room. The applause was instantaneous this time, not a moment speared from the sound of singing to the sound of claps and calls.

"He allows us to gift one more song. He asked a small ask. A cover of the song, not an original song. Something more upbeat to what we have already. I give you the Warbler addition of 'Live While We're Young'!" The Dj shouted before starting the next song.

Da Na Na Na Na Na Na ch - ch - ch
Da Na Na Na Na Na Na ch - ch - ch

The voices ran through the room, both from the speakers and from a group just entering the room.

Hey girl, I'm waitin' on ya, I'm waitin' on ya
Come on and let me sneak you out
And have a celebration, a celebration
The music up, the windows down
Yeah, we'll be doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool
And we know it too
(know it too)
Yeah, we'll keep doing what we do
Just pretending that we're cool
So tonight

The two groups of singers met on the large space before the stage. Their places slowly formed through the song.

Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some
And live while we're young

The Dj turned off his music as it was overpowered by the mixed group on the floor. They all continued to dance along with the proper routine.

Woah oh-oh-oh
Woah oh-oh-oh

In a quick glance, Barry could see that there was no Hunter, he thanked everything he could, so he did not know who was going to be singing Hunter's part.

Wanna live while we're young

"Hey, Lenny. Is that not the group that you listen to all the time?" Lisa asked Snart.

Woah oh-oh-oh

"Yeah, that is the group. I did not realise that it was an all-boys group, I could never find images thanks to not knowing their names or the glee group name." Snart replied.

Tonight let's get some

"I think they are missing one of the main ones for this song," Mick pointed out.

And live while we're young

"Yeah..." Snart replied, realising it fully.

Da Na Na Na Na Na Na ch - ch - ch

"Then go help them!" Lisa said, pushing him up.

And girl, you and I
We're 'bout to make some memories tonight

Snart joined in with the rest of the Warblers as Sebastian walked forwards with the front group. Snart recognised what was about to happen. He knew what he was about to be doing, the group had already taken one of the spots, it is time that he took the place that he should be in improvisation.

I wanna live while we're young

The Warblers' were quite surprised when Snart reached all the correct lyric points and was able to blend well like Hunter. They also were surprised by the fact that someone would come up and sing along with them.

We wanna live while we're young

Snart was really enjoying what was happening, even if it meant that he had a small solo with a well-known glee group. He took the place of Hunter, even if he had never seen what the performance looked like. He continued with the dance.

Let's go crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met but let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone

The crowd was loving it so much, they were almost all up on their feet dancing along to the music slightly.

Tonight let's get some

They all had their eyes on the group though.

And live while we're young

Snart looked like he had trained with the group before. He was matching their moves correctly, even when he has never seen it before. It was like intuition to what was about to happen.

Crazy, crazy, crazy till we see the sun
I know we only met

Snart did not join in with this, remembering that he could not hear the voice in this part of the song.

But let's pretend it's love
And never, never, never stop for anyone
Tonight let's get some

The crowd were fully up and silently cheering for the group.

And live while we're young

The Warblers were continued to be impressed by Snart.

Wanna live, wanna live, wanna live while we're young
(Wanna live!)
(Come on)
Wanna live, wanna live
(Young)

Lisa and Mick felt their jaws drop as both of the men held the correct note for the length.

Wanna live while we're young

Fluid movements were all that was happening.

Wanna live, wanna live, wanna live while we're young
(Wanna live while we're young)

Snart was almost smiling in his enjoyment of the song.

Tonight let's get some

The crowd slowly drew to a still, recognising the end appearing.

And live while we're young

The crowd burst into a full-blown cheer. Some did not know who the group was, but others who recognised where amazed. Who knew you could find the group whole again, especially down at a karaoke bar?

The group went into a large huddle hug of sorts. Snart was pulled into it as well, dragged into the centre next to Sebastian.

"Bassy! Where were you?! We needed our Captain!" The Warbles all shouted at Sebastian.

"Wait, you're the Warblers' Captain!!" Snart shouted at Sebastian.

"Well, yeah... " Barry said, scratching the back of his head. "Also, I have been living here in Central City." Barry then replied to the Warblers. "Now, how about we go somewhere we won't go deaf?" Barry said before leading them all away.

Snart grumbled as he too was dragged away.

---------------

When Snart woke up the next day, he was met by the reason he does not drink much anymore. He was stiff and tired. His head felt ran over and split open and his stomach was debating whether last nights food needed to be inside or outside.

"Bloody hell, I hate this..." He mumbled to himself before continuing on with his day.

--------------------

Barry woke up, very thankful to the fact that he could not get drunk, also meaning that he could not get the massive hangover after it. None of the other Warblers' had that fact to help them. So, doing what is best, he brought out the air horn. Owned just for an occasion like this.

He pressed down on the button - hard. The blast echoing through the whole room. Shame about the walls being soundproof would have been fun to wake up Iris and Joe with this blast from the horn.

The result was instantaneous. They all shot from their beds, well, sleeping mats, before scrambling to their feet.

"On your feet, Warblers! You have five minutes! Don't make me wait!" He shouted, his voice commanding. He then left the room, not wanting to be caught in the commotion that was currently happening in that same room.

Minutes later, most of the Warblers were waiting for him, there were two stragglers. The others were staring at the door in worry, how they hoped they got out in time.

Iris walked out of her room, greeted by a big group of boys. When had this happened?

"There late," Sebastian growled, looking down at his watch.

All the Warblers walked slowly away from Sebastian knowing what was about to be happening. Iris stood watching this amazed at what was happening. They were late, why should they back away like that? Barry is always late, why should the others worry?

"OUT!" Sebastian shouted, his voice barking the command.

Iris stood in wonder as two more men tumbled out of the room, landing in a piled heap of undress.

"Care to explain why the five minutes are over and you were not out here with the rest of them?" Sebastian said, his voice the picture of calm. This caused the troubled two to pale even further.

"We... We... We had to wait... Our clothes were prevented by the others' clothes... We... We... are sorry... So sorry... Sorry, Captain!" The two on the floor begged, getting to their knees.

"Is this true Warblers? Did you prevent Nick and Jeff from getting to their clothes?" Sebastian growled turning on the others.

They all looked away, unable to even look at Sebastian at that moment in time. The others quickly got up, rushing to get fully ready before Sebastian looked even towards them again. Iris saw that Joe was out of his room as well, the shouting waking him up. He was staring just like herself at what was happening in front of them.

"Y...Yes C...C...Captain..." The other men whispered, lowering their heads.

"Could you remind me of the saying of the Warblers?" Barry asked cooly, much to the amazement of Iris and Joe.

"Once a Warbler always a Warbler!" The Warblers recited as one.

"Now what happens between Warblers!!" Sebastian shouted.

"Warblers are one! We stay together! We are brothers! We are family!!" The Warblers recited, shouting.

"Care to explain to me why you caused the delay for them then?" Sebastian asked, his face masked hard.

"We were selfless, we did not act like family. We did not act as Warblers!" They all replied, military in style.

"Will this be happening again?"

"No Captain!" They replied.

"I can't hear you!" Sebastian growled.

"No Captain!!" They recited louder.

"I want all of you out there now, up and down the road six times!" Sebastian ordered, the Warblers quick to get out and started with the running.

"What was all that Barry?" Joe asked the moment the front door was closed.

"Idiots thinking that they can get away because I have been gone for a while," Sebastian growled.

"Weren't they the same people from that Glee group you called 'Maths'?" Iris asked.

"Glee group?" Joe asked.

"Yes. They are a Glee group. A well known, across the whole world, Glee group. They were called the Dalton Academy Warblers. Now just the Warblers. As you can see, I am their Captain. They are under my control and charge. Currently, they are in the morning warm-up part of training. A little treat for them all having a hangover. Air horn and all." Barry replied.

"I don't think I have ever seen you acting like this," Joe stated.

"No, you have not. It is a side that I keep hidden under lock and key. It's... Darker then what I am now. New name, new personality. What you saw there was not as nasty as it could get." Barry stated.

"Should we be worried about who this other side is?" Iris asked Barry.

"Most definitely." Barry replied strongly before adding, "I need to go out there again, continue the morning warm up with them." He then walked away, leaving them mid-conversation.

Sebastian appeared the moment the door closed, his smirk crossing his face when he saw the group running up to the top of the road. He made his way up to them, taking his rightful place in front.

"Warblers, time for a following-run!" Sebastian stated before leading off at a faster run towards the park.

The Warblers followed him, undying formation as the sun finally started to rise. When they finished at the park, he pulled off to another side, directing them away.

They were all short of breath while he was still able to breathe like he had just got back from a short walk to the shop.

----------

They were like leaping gazels, clearing the different fallen logs with practised ease. Sebastian led the run, not sweat appearing on his breath-filled body, pushing from different logs. Sharp corners throwing the group from straight.

When they finally reached the opening that Barry had taken Snart too, he allowed them to rest for a moment.

"Bloody hell! What was all that!!" They all said, in one way or another.

"That was your warm up, thought I would catch up where you all lacked. Also to show you the group force of the Warblers." Sebastian said, watching the panting boys. "Arms in the air, resting on the back of your head, walking at a slow even pace." Sebastian then instructed when he saw just how short of breath they were.

When they were all finally back to normal, they started their way back, calm as normal.

"Could we pop and get something to eat. I think I could shrink with the lack of food that I have!" Nick complained, the others quickly following.

Sebastian smirked internally, a small plan coming to mind. He took out three protein bars, splitting them between them all. "Here, this is a premium energy bar of sorts. Don't bother about the taste it is nasty, but it will help." He said, handing them apart each. "This packs more then you think." He then said when they eyed the amount.

The moment they tried it, they could all see why he broke it so small. It was an explosion of energy almost - also the most disgusting taste in the world - making them buzz, it was all go energy. Made from proteins so they did not worry about it really.

"Now, jog to the CCPD!" Sebastian said leading the way after he ate a whole one of the bars for himself. He was not stupid, he had eaten a massive breakfast before waking them all up.

------------------

"Allen! What is all this?" The Captain asked.

"Leading the warm up. The boys were slacking off in my absence." Barry replied.

"Now why would you be leading the warm-up?" The Captain asked.

"Because, Captain, I am their Captain," Barry replied simply.

"Captain of what?" The Captain asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Of the Warblers, sir, the most well-known Glee group, sir," one of the more 'disciplined' Warblers replied.

"Could you lead them to your lab and not leave them unsupervised then? I don't have all day." The Captian replied before walking away.

As they got into the lab, one of them asked Sebastian. "What was all that about?"

"That is called a Captain that hates me with all his guts. Even if I am the best CSI in the whole state." Barry replied before going to work.

----------------------------

"Barry!" Came a whisper at the skylight.

Looking up, the whole group could see that it was the man from the bar. Looking at each other, they opened it up to allow the man in.

"Where is your Captain?" The man asked them.

"He is right here," Sebastian replied walking out from behind the shelves. "What do I owe the pleasure, Leonard Snart?" He asked him, placing the acids on the table.

"I wanted to ask how you got into this, as I could retell that you never seem to be the one that could be how Sebastian Smythe is described to be," Snart stated.

"I was heavily bullied. Caused me to be hospitalised..." Barry started.

The whole of the Warblers started shouting different things, many of them asking who they were so that they could give them a taste of their own medicine.

"Barry, what's going on?" Joe asked, appearing at the door.

"Yeah, we heard a commotion coming up the stairs," Iris added appearing next to Joe.

"Nah, Snart was just finding out why I became who I was and the Warblers did not enjoy me being hospitalised through bullying." Barry shrugged.

"Well don't let up stop you," Iris said walking herself and Joe further into the room to listen.

"The CCPD did some digging so that I could be offered more protection. Turns out I had family in Ohio. I was sent to them, picking up a new name," Barry continued. 'Let us ignore my other life though...' Barry thought to himself. He then continued, "there I became Sebastian Smythe, later going to Dalton Academy. I joined Lacrosse and the Warblers. Becoming the Captian's of both the clubs. I became darker and darker. Angry in my grief. I became a bully... Later I became the villain, then the leader of the Villains. I was unstopped, left to go down a dark path. I only just pulled myself away when I graduated, locking that away forever." Barry replied looked at the floor, away from everyone.

"Hey, we all doing bad things sometimes," Snart said, pulling Barry into a side-on hug.

"Yeah..." Barry sighed before pushing himself away. "Time for work then!" He replied, pushing Snart towards the skylight again and shooing the others out.

----------

Barry finally rested his head on his pillow, he realised that he had just emitted one of the biggest and darkest secrets to his family. They did not hate him as well.

Even with the fact of only having them around for one night, he found himself missing them. The light snores to the rhinos snored echoing around the room.

His face drifted into a smile before the world of sleep took him gently in its arms.

----------

"Allen, care to explain why you were signing 'Partners in Crime' with Leonard Snart, with the crowd of criminals standing in for the CCPD?" The Captain shouted out the moment Barry walked into the building.

"Um... Surprise picking karaoke?" Barry shrugged as he was stared at by everyone.

....

"Not going to leave this are you?" Barry sighed.

"Not even close," The Captain stated. "The bar sang the police part." He then added.
