Words spin a web of such sweet lies. The spider lures the moth in with words of comfort and promises of greatness. The moth follows and becomes entangled. The moth is trapped but the in the web the world seems black and white. The strands get stronger with the illusion of trust and the moth falls into a deep sleep. There is no suspicion in the web, the moth is happy.
Eobard Thawne was in his secret room with a machine attached to his chest. He slammed his hand on the desk in frustration. He shouted "dam" to no one in particular. He was just voicing his frustrations out loud. He ripped the machine off his chest and threw it into the corner. It wasn't working why wasn't it working!
No matter what he did there was no way he could absorb the speed force. He had tried everything he could think of but nothing was working. He was now completely dependent on Barry to get him home. He paused his angry frustrated thoughts that swarmed around his mind like bees to think about Barry. The man he knew now was completely different than the one he had met in the future. The one he had traveled back in time to kill. That Barry was arrogant.
But this Barry was dare he say it? This Barry was sweet. He cared about everyone and everything. He paused not even for a single moment to consider his own safety when he could help another. His goofy smile and childlike innocence in amidst all the pain. Barry had experienced such pain in his young life. But he continued to smile and help those in need. Barry was growing on him and that was dangerous.
Eboard put his hand on his face and sighed. When had he stopped thinking of Barry as an enemy a mean to him getting home. To what he felt now...what was it he felt now. What did he see Barry as? A friend, a son something more? Defiantly someone to be protected and cherished.
He stood up and shook his head trying to clear the dangerous thoughts invading his mind. He walked over to another section of the room and opened a compartment. Inside was a test tube that concoction he had been working months on. Using the meta humans they held he was able to make a sample that theoretically when combined with a fresh blood sample from Barry would give him Barrys speed.
It was untested but he was getting desperate. Eboard did not want to be dependent on anyone. Especially Barry. His thoughts already muddled acting on impulse instead of cold logic he took a sample he had collected from Barry (who had got hurt...again) and put it into the test tube. Then he drank it down in one setting.
The effects were almost instant. He fell to the floor, his body felt as though every cell was dying at once. He screamed in agony and gripped his sides as his body was racked with pain. His breathing got slower and he felt his lungs stop working altogether. He felt panic as he could no longer feel his heat beat.
His body was shutting down but he was completely aware. Horror consumed him and he accepted his death. Time moved on it could have been seconds or hours but suddenly it was over. Eboard stood himself up with a shaking hand. He felt a rush of sudden energy. He had never felt so alive. He moved his hand to his chest. He could no longer feel the rise and fall of breath. His hand trailed to his heart and found no pulse.
His mind raced. How could this be he wondered. Every scientific fact pointed to him being dead. But he felt too good to be dead. His body practically vibrated. It was vibrating! He tried taking a couple unsure steps which turned into a jog. Soon he found himself running at in human speeds. He had done it!
He tried for the next hour he to try to reach a speed fast enough to get home. But he failed every time. Soon he found himself losing speed "no,no NO!" he yelled and his speed left him completely. He held his head in defeat and had to walk home avoiding being seen. The sun was rising, Caitlin and Cisco would be arriving in an hour. He had to be there to keep up this little game.
Later that day
Cisco looked over at doctor Wells. Something looked off about him. His skin was much paler then usual and Cisco had not seen him eat all day. Cisco piped up and said "Hey, Doctor Wells. Are you okay?" Three pairs of eyes looked over at Harrison. Harrison had not been feeling right all day. He felt so very hungry but anything he ate tasted equivalent to dirt.
"Oh I'm just feeling a little under the weather Cisco. Thanks for asking" They tried to ask more especially Barry who refused to leave his side for the rest of the day. But Harrison or was it Eboard? After 15 years he tended to call himself Eboard in private but when with others he referred to himself as Harrison even in his own mind. But still Barry stayed by his side trying to help him and encourage him to eat. Harrison refused but found it comforting having Barry beside him. There was a new smell whenever Barry was near. A smell of home, comfort almost like a forest in fall mixed with a tinge of honey.
Harrison loved that smell and wanted it to never leave him. So when the day ended and Barry said his goodbyes Harrison had to resist standing up leaving his chair to follow after him. As soon as Barry was a couple feet from him the smell got weaker and Harrison's stomach felt hunger like he had never felt before. Almost as if a wolf was scratching inside begging to be let out. Suddenly he felt a rise of aggression and had to hold back a growl when Caitlin had put her hand on Barry's shoulder.
Cisco and Snow pulled Barry and aside out of Harrison view. Harrison thought that the three of them were going home but Cisco had a better idea "What's up Cisco" Barry asked his one eye brow crooked up in curiosity.
"We all saw how sick Dr. Wells is…. so I had this great idea!" Cisco said excitingly "Why don't we throw him a movie night. Get him to stop working one night and we all just hang out as friends" Snow and Barry were immediately on board. "That's a great idea" Barry said Harrison had already done so much for them especially himself. This was a way he could finally repay him. Snow piped in "I will bring the chicken soup" Barry and Cisco nodded in agreement. Snow made the best soup. "Well I'm on movie duty" Cisco put in his share. Barry panicked for a second not sure what he could bring "I could bring these really comfy alpaca blankets…." He trailed off unsure.
But Cisco and Snow both nodded their heads in unison and agreed. After the finer details had been worked out they agreed to come back to the lab later that night at the same time. They parted ways but only one of them would leave in the mourning alive.
But a voice calls at the edge of the dream. It calls your name with such worry. Ignore the voice Barry. You don't need to know the answers to those questions. The questions which fill your heart with dread. Put your trust in me. If you lose the blind fold you won't like what you see.
Harrison was looking at his blood cells under a microscope. His cells seemed to be in a constant state of iron deficiency. But eating iron rich food or even taking supplements did nothing. He put a slide of normal blood next to his blood to compare only to see something very strange.
His blood moved towards the other sample surrounding it completely. It consumed it entirely breaking it down till his blood cells were the only ones left. His blood cells were now exhibiting strength and something else a keen to longevity. Harrison was confused by this and did more tests. But about ten minutes into the testing his blood cells went back into their weakened state.
He thought to himself, Barry's blood had a much longer affect not only giving me strength but speed. He went into the fridge that kept all the blood samples. When he opened the fridge he was suddenly hit by many scents. With one standing out in particular over whelming the others. He made a grab for it finding himself gripping the tube that contained Barry's sample.
His hand trembled making him almost drop the test tube. His body filled with cravings. It took every inch of self-control to just walk across the room and put the sample under the horoscope. He spilt some of the blood onto his hand and found himself staring at it. The rose red drops trailing down his hand almost like rose petals.
It was when he heard a sound of a door bell that he was pulled out of his trance. But he noticed that his tongue was reaching for the blood. He should really be freaked out he thought to himself. Instead he smiled this felt good.
Barry stood at the door blankets in hand waiting to be buzzed in. In the meantime he thought over what had happened when he had arrived home. Joe had shared his suspicions on Dr. Wells. Barry defended Harrison. Sure he was a private man but after Barry was hit by lighting all he had been was good to Barry.
Everything Harrison had done was to protect him. He was Barry's friend was what he had screamed at Joe without a waiver of surety. But as Barry stood in front of the door doubt started to creep at the edge of his mind. Before Barry could acknowledge the dread creeping up his spine. He was buzzed it.
The blade of doubt has been fading in and out. Cutting at the web still the strands start to unravel. Through a slit in the blindfold you get a peep. What you see you almost wish you hadn't
Barry made his way inside to find Harrison smiling at his sudden appearance. "What are you doing here Barry? Are those blankets?" Harrison wheeling over to Barry so that they were close. "Yeah Cisco set it up. We wanted to throw a movie night to help you feel better" Barry explained.
Usually Harrison would have been annoyed with the intrusion of his work. But just Barry being there his sent filling the room made Harrison feel warm. He hadn't felt warm all day. "That's awfully kind of you Barry." He said "I guess I could take the night off. How about we go over to the couch and wait for the others"
"Sure!" Barry said happily and he speed his way over to the couch flopping onto it and throwing the blankets onto the end of it. He was completely oblivious to how Harrison followed after him as a cat followed after a mouse. But they were both oblivious to the blood sample. Harrison Blood sample was creeping over to consumed Barry's sample and a yellow electricity flashed past them. Harrisons blood sample turning darker and much more powerful.
Cisco and Snow arrived very soon after to find Barry and Harrison was both wrapped up in blankets. Harrison sat on in chair and welled over to the couch lifting himself up so that he sat next to Barry. Barry was just happy that Harrison was sitting next to him that he did not notice how possessive Harrison was being.
The rest of the night they watched the lord of the rings trilogy. Snow had given Harrison her soup. He was very hungry but when the soup touched his tongue it tasted completely vile. He forced it down not wanting to give up that his sickness was something new. What exactly it was Harrison was not sure but he was starting to get suspicions.
During the second Barry noticed that Harrison had inched himself over so much that he was practically snuggling Barry. Barry for a second was concerned but then thought that maybe Harrison was cold and needed warmth. That his sickness was making him so um clingy.
Being the person he was Barry said nothing but he shivered as goose bumps rose up his arms like a ghost running its fingers across his spine. The air felt chillier almost as if someone had left the air conditioner on a already chilly autumn day. But Barry trusted Harrison so he did not voice his discomfort.
But if he could have heard what Harrison was thinking he would have been off the couch in a milli second. Harrison stomach growled. He felt more hungry then he had ever felt before in his life. This was an unnatural hunger that felt as if it was eating him from the inside. Eating away at his logic till all that was left was pure animal instinct. Something smelled amazing in this room. He had to ,needed to find it.
Harrison found himself closer to Barry and found that he had located the scent. It was then Harrison wrapped his arms around Barry and started to nuzzle his neck trying to take in as much of the sent as possible. He could hear Barry's heart beat rising quickly thumping right below the thin skin. The vein was visible a gorgeous blue.
Barry practically jumped when started to nuzzle his neck and oh god was he sniffing him. Ùm are you feeling okay Dr. Wells`` Barry said as he tried to politely as possible pull Dr. Wells arm off him. But no matter how much strength he put into it Harrison arm would not move. Barry turned his head to lock eyes with Harrison words on his tongue.
It seemed like slow motion on the way he saw both Cisco and Snow who were looking at the pair on the couch oddly. He turned his head completely and Harrison and Barry's eyes met. Barry was shocked to find that Harrison eyes were a blood red instead of their usual comforting brown.
"What's wrong Barry? Why have your eyes gone so wide? Why is your heart beating so fast?
Harrison opened his mouth and Barry could see two long fangs. Then faster than even the flash could react those fangs were in his neck. It felt terrible like two knives were plunged into his throat. But the worst was the feeling of something leaving his body. The feeling of being drained of his life blood.
Barry screamed in alarm trying to escape Harrison grasp. His attempts getting weaker every second that ticked by. The entire time Barry still tried to have faith not truly believing this was Harrison. The man he looked up to and trusted completely. But Joe's words echoed through his mind.
It was only a couple seconds but to Barry it felt like forever till Snow and Cisco reacted. As quickly as they could they ran over and pulled Harrison off of Barry. It took the threes effort to do so. Snow was saying ``Oh my god,Oh my god`` over and over again. While Cisco grabbed a piece of the blanket managing to rip a part of and wrap it around Barrys neck. Almost appearing as though a scarf instead of a make shift scarf. It stopped the bleeding for the vein had not been ripped and Barry was already starting to heal.
They were able to push Harrison onto the other side of the couch. They were ignoring him too concern for Barry and the three of them not truly understanding what was happing. Mean while Harrison was feeling over joyed. The flavour on his tongue was indescribable. Like cool water on a dying man's tongue but sweet like chocolate.
But there was something else a spark that electrified every cell of his body. His senses were increasing and if he thought he could smell before it was nothing. It was like he was a blind man seeing for the first time. He could see everything from the smallest dust particle to colors that had no name by man. He could hear a cricket outside the facility chirping away.
But the smell were what where the most amazing. He could not just smell individual smells but emotions. The room was full of panic and fear. He could feel their fear. It smelled delicious except for one. One he did not want to fear him. He re focused and saw that snow was in his way of Barry.
How dare she! He could smell the fear coming of Barry in waves. Fear and pain. What were they doing to Barry? He growled and Snow only had time to turn her head as he grabbed her with one arm and threw her. Barry saw as snow flew into the air towards a wall. Barry tried to speed after her only to find his speed on the fritz. Whatever Harrison had done to him did not only cause a lack of iron but part of speed had been taken along with his blood. He struggled through the slowed time his hand out reached to snow.
But he could not reach her on time. She hit the wall with a sticking crunch. Her head crashed against the wall and her eyes rolled into the back of head. The breath knocked out of her as she exhaualed all the air in her lungs. Snows body limply slide down the wall a trail of blood stained the wall from her head.
Cisco screamed out as though a wounded animal from seeing this happen to someone akin to a sister to him. Barry reached her and lifted her of the cold ground and cradled her in his lap. `` Snow, Snow you need to wake up okay. Come on please open your eyes`` Barry begged to the unmoving body. Cisco was beside him and went to go check her pulse.
`Don't bother` they both heard the voice behind them only to see Harrison standing behind them ,free from his chair or having to pretend. ` I can hear that her heart has stopped` he said smiling his voice holding no remorse. ``She would have only got in the way any ways 'he looked down at Barry whose terrified eyes looked back up him. Harrison frowned not understanding or liking the fear or anguish in Barry's eyes.
Why Barry looked so upset. But he understood Barry like any other human would first reject change. But it was only a matter of time till Barry got through his grief for a worthless life and move on. Onto this new chapter. Harrisons smiled his mind felt clearer than it had ever felt before.
Cisco was holding Snows wrist feeling for a pulse that was just no longer there. Harrison started to move forward and Barry reacted quickly feeling his speed starting to return. He grabbed Cisco and snows body not wanting to leave her on the floor he put her on the couch. He only had moments and lifted Cisco as far away as he could. He was not losing two friends tonight. They had to get out now!
Harrison was left alone in the room with a quickly cooling body. The warmth of life leaving. He speeded over to the nearby computer and sighed. He had a new plan for him and his Barry and this was not the way he wanted it start off. He pressed a button that closed off all the doors trapping the three of them inside. Only he had the password to open the doors.
He smiled as one of the cameras caught a blur stop at the locked door to reveal Barry and Cisco. Now it was just a game of hide and seek. Harrison smiled he enjoyed games because he never lost. Not once.
The discovered truth. I believed in you. Put my trust in you. But now I don't know whose eyes I see in the blood stained chrome .Now everything I've known to be true had been ripped away. Where I felt at home is now a prison. I've awoken now, the blindfold is off.
