    The Evil Sound Of Music!

    Relieved on monitor duty by Batman, the Flash wastes no time coming home to his wife, Picture News reporter, Iris West. The Flash, as police forensic scientist, Barry Allen, gets ready to attend a music festival, with his wife. Unbeknownst to Allen, Sargon the Sorcerer plans on attending the festival as well, to get back his Ruby of Life. Once the concert starts, Sargon the Sorcerer uses dark magics to take control of the music. Demons begin to coalesce out of the psychedelic light show, as the music turns to shrieking.

    The panicked crowd begins to flee en masse. Allen, as the Flash, aids in the evacuation. The band finds they cannot cease playing. West is overwhelmed by the mystical forces Sargon has set loose. Sargon takes possession of the Flash, sending him to the Flash Museum, to retrieve the Sorcerer's Ruby of Life. Demons begin closing in on West''s unconscious form, as well as that of the lead singer, Grace. The Flash finds himself running in place, as he awaits further instructions from Sargon.

    At the last moment, the Flash is able to break free of Sargon's spell, and rescue West. At that same moment, the lead guitarist, Paul, also breaks free of the spell, and races to Grace's aid. Seeing Grace imperiled, Sargon wrestles with his conscience, finally opting to aid the girl, who is, in fact, Sargon's niece, Sargon ends the spell, dispelling all the demons. After apologizing to Grace, Sargon vanishes. Alone in his occult hideaway, Sargon struggles with the dark choices he has made of late, and wonders if he can find his way back into the light.

    Phantom Of The Cafeteria

    In the Blue Valley High School cafeteria, several students notice their lunches disappearing. Wally West acts quickly to keep the students from panicking. That night, West is attending a peace rally, with his girlfriend, Dana, when the same phenomena begins to occur again. West investigates, as Kid Flash. Moving faster than the eye can see, Kid Flash spies a fellow speedster moving through the crowded rally. Kid Flash moves in to apprehend the mysterious racing figure, only to be forcibly repelled.

    Following a trail of litter, Kid Flash tracks the rival speedster to a series of hills. There he finds his quarry, passed out, clearly suffering from malnutrition. The speedster, while humanoid, is clearly not human. Kid Flash clears away the rocks and debris from a recent landslide, and discovers a hidden cave. The speedster rushes in, and disappears. Realizing the creature belongs to some hidden subterranean race, Kid Flash seals up the cavern. En route back to the rally, Kid Flash takes time to pick up all the creature's trash.
