One of the complications that can come about from being struck by lightning is transient blindness and so sometimes, mostly while using his speed, Wally goes blind. That's the real reason for the goggles, they let him (kid of?) see during an episode. Somehow the team finds out. It lasts longer than usual, his goggles break, they find out during training that he's really good at fighting blind, whatever works.

Bonus point - A villain finds out
Or - Tie in the Rouges already knowing

Kid Flash could only imagine how he must have looked to his friend. His uniform torn, goggles smashed, covered in blood and his eyes staring ahead sightlessly. He tilted his face towards Aqualad, but all that did was make Aqualad tighten his grip on Kid Flash. Pressing his hand against Aqualad’s chest, Kid Flash tried to move away from his friend, but he was too weak from blood loss and he wondered briefly when the gash in his side would heal. He didn’t want to be seen like this, not until his vision returned.

“Go help Robin and Miss M,” he repeated.

“Artemis is tending to them.” There was a quiver to Aqualad’s usually calm voice. “Kid? Can you … can you see me?”

“I’m fine, I’m fine.” He tried to reassure Aqualad, but his head fell back onto his friend’s shoulder and he could feel his eyelids droop. “I’m fine, I just … My sight is …” Kid Flash lost his train of thought and he lifted his hand from his wound, it felt warm and sticky. “Am I … Am I still bleeding?” And his arm fell limply to the side ( ... )

I can't even with this story, it's just so enrapturing. And oh, Kaldur! Such a good leader. ♥ Can't wait for the next part!

The team leader took a step into the medical bay, forcing Wally to take a step back or be run over by his friend. Kaldur looked so upset that it made Wally’s stomach turn and he knew better than to argue with Kaldur at the moment even though he was sorely tempted to. Webbed fingers grabbed his shoulder and pushed the speedster back towards the empty bed ( ... )

My magical powers of F5 didn't work, so I guess I had better review XD

I love that Wally's giving it up, explaining it, and we get to see the backstory. I'm really impressed by his ability to fight so well, actually have fighting skill, when he can't see and I hope the team recognizes that.

I've finally gotten something up for Runaway Child, so now I can take the time to review this properly.

This is ten different kinds of awesome. At least.

Wally fighting blind, and in a rematch with Cheshire witch I've never even put much thought into, was just wonderful. And of course Wally can push through anything and find all the patients in the world when his friends are in trouble.

Barry is wonderfully protective, and at the same time just the right amount of over protective to have Wally react to it like this.

Kaldur is just beautiful in this. I can't wait to see what his reaction to this is going to be, and how they end up telling everybody else.

Kaldur looked down at the goggles in his hand. “So Dr. Mid-Nite made you these goggles so you can see while running?”

Wally nodded. “It’s not perfect, but it’s better than being blind.”

“You should have told me,” Kaldur’s voice was low and frustrated. Wally closed his eyes, unable to look his friend in the face anymore. Sometimes it was easier not to see. But Kaldur wasn’t letting him off easy and his voice rose. “You should have told me!”

Wally flinched at the tone. He could hear it, the twist of anger and worry that gnawed at the usually cool and calm teen. Guilt bubbled up in Wally briefly before it was replaced by his own frustration. “Hey! I can handle it! And I was holding off that assassin just fine without my goggles, I can take care of myself!”

“You were fine until she stabbed you,” Kaldur corrected. “And it’s not just about taking care of yourself! We’re a team, we take care of each other and I can’t do that if I don’t know“You weren’t supposed to know! It wasn’t supposed to be an issue ( ... )

“but I don’t wanna.”

How very Wally, lol. Oooh, can't wait to see Robin's reaction. And Artemis! I can see Connor and Megan being more accepting, even if they might not get it, but Artemis and Robin are either going to be pissed off or impressed. Maybe both. Awesome!

“Wally,” Kaldur’s tone was quieter as he hooked his hand behind Wally’s neck and leaned in close. “Wally, I wish you had told me. Not just because I am your team leader, but because I am your friend and because I would like to think that you trust me like I trust you.”

“Way to lay on the guilt,” Wally grumbled.

And the serious charm, Kaldur.! ^///^

His mother laid her hand over his own and she said, “You don’t have to be Barry’s sidekick.”

“You shouldn’t.” His father’s tone was both concerned and harsh. “Not with your disability.”

Wally’s face twisted up into an annoyed scowl. “I’m fine. Uncle Barry told you that Dr. Mid-Nite made me goggles so I can see when I run. I’ve tried them out and they work just fine.”

“I still don’t like it, not at all.” His father crossed his arms in a huff.

Mary squeezed her son’s hand. “That doesn’t mean you have to be Barry’s sidekick or that you should.”

“But I want to be, I’ve always wanted to be!” Wally protested. “And Uncle Barry said he was going to train me and he said that he was going to keep a close eye on me and I promised to do everything he says when he says it!”

His parents exchanged frowns. Wally knew that they loved him, but they seemed to have lost all confidence in him once Barry told them about his condition. He wished, not for the first time, that Uncle Barry had never told them.The team was gathered in the ( ... )
