I think you are putting too much stock in a video game. They would kill both Wally and Artemis because it makes certain that this future WILL be negated at somepoint, so that Wally and Artemis would both ultimately survive whatever killed them and we will see them in season three. Until then, we will also see them in the flashbacks to the present.
