Time for it to begin, enjoy!
Earth-1, West home:
Barry was sat down on the couch with a cup of coffee and a crime-mystery book as Captain Singh had given him a day off due to the fact he had been working every second of every day, without any type of a break. But the reason why Barry was always working wasn't because he was behind, the true reason was that he was always working was to spend time away from Iris and the team but that didn't last long as Cisco was calling him.
"Hey man, everything alright? We just haven't see you for a few days." Cisco was concerned about his best friend, Barry got up from the couch and walked into the kitchen.
"Yeah, just been busy with things," Barry replied, he put his phone on speaker as he begun washing his cup. "Something wrong?" Barry asked in case Cisco was calling because of a Metahuman.
"No, just…" Cisco started then paused, he thought his next words carefully then said them. "Joe and Iris said that you've been distant lately and too be honest, you have been towards us." Barry felt like he was being stabbed in the back by the person he considered his best friend.
"Cisco, I'm not pushing anyone away. I'm just having some time to myself." Barry told him and now he was now thinking how his inter-dimensional friend, Kara Danvers and how was she doing.
Earth-38, DEO:
Kara was in her Supergirl costume after she just returned from a bank robbery, she landed on the balcony and walked in to see her sister standing there. Kara hugged Alex who returned the hug, they then made their way down to the training room and started training. Alex was helping Kara learn new moves in case she couldn't use her powers and Alex could tell from her sister's actions that something was bothering her.
"Okay Kara, time out," Alex suggested, Kara sat down on the bench and sorted out her skirt. "Is there something bothering you?" Kara didn't answer, she started playing with her hair and that told Alex that something was playing on her mind. "Kara, you know that you can tell me anything." Kara nodded then looked up at her sister.
"It's to do with Mon-El," Kara started and it was Alex's turn to sit down on the bench and Kara to stand up. "Ever since I found out he was married to Irma, my heart feels like it's breaking and I don't know what to do." Alex didn't know what to do as she once felt like that after breaking up with Maggie.
"Kara, it sounds like you're emotionally confused," Alex told her, she got up and hugged her sister. "I personally don't know what to do but maybe you should take a break, go and take a vacation somewhere." Kara nodded then had an idea of where she could go.
"Alex, I'll take up that idea and I'm going to see a friend," Kara said then showed her a photo of her with a guy. "I'm going to see him." Alex knew who it was so he nodded, Kara smiled then ran off to get ready to go and see her friend.
Earth-1, S.T.A.R Labs:
Barry was in the Cortex standing in front of his Flash suit, he placed his hand on the emblem as he thought about the what the future may hold for him as he had decided Iris wasn't the one for him.
"Hey there, Barr," Barry turned around and there was Joe, he placed his jacket on the main desk then walked over to his son and hugged him, Barry returned the hug then turned his attention back to his suit. "Are you alright, Barry?" Barry shrugged his shoulders as a response instead of using words.
"Sometimes Joe, I honestly don't know what I'm doing," Barry admitted, he sat in a chair which was next to his suit and looked up at Joe. "Ever since I found out about that news article, I have focused on trying to prevent the timeline from changing but I've been lying about my feelings for Iris." Joe sat down opposite Barry and looked at him, he was still trying to get to grips with time travel and alternate Earths.
"So, what are you saying, Barry?" Joe asked, Barry turned around to pick up something then he threw it between them. "What this?" Barry got up then removed the Flash suit.
"I'm going away for a little while so I can think," Barry said as he placed the folded up Flash suit then he removed the emblem and removed the tracker Cisco had placed in it. "I'll see you around." Barry was about to leave when the team walked in and blocked the exit.
"Barry, you need to think about this carefully." advised Cisco, Barry looked to side then walked towards one of the walls and began to vibrate so fast that he phrase through the wall and had almost left the building when Harry shot a dart that made Barry fall down.
"Allen, instead of running from your problems," Harry held out a hand and Barry took it as Harry was the only person that he truly trusted. "Try talking to someone so that way, you can get help." Barry nodded then the two walked off to the Time Vault to have a private chat.
Earth-38, Kara's apartment:
Kara was at her place packing a few bags so she that she could go and take a break from being Supergirl. She was just about ready when she heard someone knocking on her front door, she used her x-ray vision to see who it was and it was male body and looked unharmed. Kara walked over to her door and opened it and there stood Mon-El, the last person Kara wanted to see at this or any moment in time. Kara decided to be nice and let Mon-El in so they could talk before she left for her long holiday away.
"Kara, I heard you're going away for a while," Mon-El asked and Kara nodded. "Do you want me to go with you for company?" That question made Kara's heart burn as Mon-El, the man who she once loved and was now married to someone else, was asking her if she wanted him to go with her for company when it was because of him that Kara was going away for a while.
"No, Mon-El!" All of a sudden, Kara shouted at Mon-El and he could tell she was seriously angry with him. "I'm going away for a while to get away from you!" Kara bellowed, she walked over to the door and opened then pointed out to the hallway. "I want you to go and never ask anyone where I'm going." Mon-El walked out with his head down, he wanted to try and fix things between them but now he could see that they were never going to be the same again.
"I hoped we could fix what we had between us." Mon-El told Kara before he left, Kara grabbed him by the shoulder and looked at him and she wasn't happy at all.
"Do you know how hard it's been for me: for me to act happy around you and Irma?" Kara asked but Mon-El didn't answer. "It's been more painful than being stabbed by a Kryptonite blade!" Kara was releasing all her negative emotions at the cause of it: Mon-El and with that, Kara literary kicked Mon-El out of her apartment and locked her door so that she could get back to her packing.
Earth-1, S.T.A.R Labs:
Barry was sat on the floor while talking to Harry Wells, who was standing up, he was listening to Barry so that he could help him get through the problem. Over time, the two scientists had become more like friends which meant Barry could trust Wells more than the others.
"I can't believe it took me so long to realise that," Barry admitted, he pointed at The Flash article that was up on the wall, Harry looked at the byline and noticed it now said 'Iris West'. "The name on the byline changed when I admitted to myself, I feel like such a fool: to be persuaded by something that hasn't happened next." Barry shouted then punched the wall, the echo of the punch made Harry jump.
"Allen, I'm proud that you decided to alter your future and that you wanted to talk about this with me," Harry congratulated the speedster as he sat next to him. "But the next time you feel like this, don't run." Harry held his hand out and Barry shook it, Harry removed his glasses then looked at Barry. "Suggestion: try talking to someone who you know more than any of us." At that moment, an alarm started screaming and Gideon activated.
"Gideon, what's going on?" Barry asked and Gideon projected the CCTV view of the Breach Room as a breach had opened. "Let's see who wants to say hello." Barry suggested, he grabbed Wells then the two bolted off to the Breach Room.
Breach Room:
Barry and Wells arrived in the Breach Room before anyone else had arrived and when they did, everyone saw several bags come flying through and landed by Barry and Wells' feet. They were confused with who was coming through and how stuff were coming through but seconds later, a familiar figure jumped through and brought a smile to Barry's face: it was Kara Danvers.
"Kara!" Barry exclaimed, he jumped over the several bags and hugged his Super Friend, Kara smiled and returned the hug. "What's brought you? Has the DEO sent you for punishment or something?" He joked and that made Kara laugh, Barry had to admit that he found Kara's laugh adorable.
"Hey Barry and no," Kara giggled. "I'm actually taking a vacation from my Earth, too many problems for me to handle." Barry nodded as he knew that feeling all too well.
"If you're staying here then how about you stay with me?" Barry offered, Kara smiled and shrugged her shoulders. "To be honest, I could do with a roommate," Barry admitted. "I do get lonely, living on my own in my apartment." Kara nodded then the two picked up all of Kara's stuff then left the Breach Room.
"Is it me or does Barry look and sound a lot better than earlier?" Caitlin asked and the team nodded, they then turned and looked at Harry who was cleaning his glasses.
"What?" Harry asked in his usual manner, he acted like he had nothing to do with Barry's happier attitude.
The Loft:
Barry and Kara arrived at Barry's place and Kara was amazed at the size of Barry's place, it was clearly far more bigger than hers which made the Kryptonian a little jealous. Barry took Kara's stuff to the spare room and when he came down, he saw Kara looking around the loft so that she could find out where everything was.
"I see you're making yourself at home," Barry called out and that made Kara jump. "It's fine, you can stay here whenever you want for as long as you want." Barry told her and that made Kara happy as now she had a place to stay while on Earth-1.
"Thanks Barry," Kara sat down and smiled as Barry made them a cup of coffee and held up a bag of donuts. "Either you knew that I would be staying with you or you're just lucky." Kara exclaimed, Barry smiled and winked at her as he carried the two coffees and the donuts to the couch and placed them on the couch.
"If I was lucky, Kara, I wouldn't be having girl troubles," Barry told her and the pair laughed, "So, what really brings you here? Something tells me that there are pretty of lovely vacations spots on your Earth." Barry enquired, Kara knew that Barry could tell there was another reason why she was on his Earth.
"Mon-El is back and he's married," Kara said and Barry could tell that it upset her a lot. "I've had to try and hide my feelings for him but it hurts more every time I see him." Barry wrapped his arm around Kara and she rested her head on his shoulder. "Thanks again for this, Barry. Staying here, the coffee and donuts, piece and quiet and Mon-El free." Barry smiled as he leant forward and grabbed a donut to pass it to Kara.
"It's my pleasure, Kara." Gushed Barry, he was more than happy to help Kara as the two got along with no problem as they weren't just friends, they were super friends.
Earth-38, DEO:
Alex had just left the training room after a two and half hour training session with J'onn, the pair always liked to train so that they were prepared for anything. She was just about to go into her office when she saw Mon-El talking to Winn and could tell it was a heated argument about something and she didn't super hearing to overhear Mon-El who had just said Kara's name so Alex did what any agent/sister would do and find out what that problem had to do with her younger sister.
"Mon-El! Winn! What's going on here?" Alex commanded which she could tell scared Winn a little bit more than Kara's powers. "Do I need to ask a second time?" Mon-El decided to be the bigger man and answer Alex.
"I was asking Winn if he knew where Kara had gone," Mon-El explained which caused Alex to be concerned. "I care about her like you still care about Maggie, Alex." Mon-El knew that Maggie and Alex weren't engaged anymore but while being ex's, they decided to be friends which none of them had a problem with.
"And as I told Mister Beard here, I have no idea where Kara is." Winn added and Alex knew that he was telling the truth as the only ones that Kara had gone to Earth-1 was herself and J'onn.
"Mon-El, the only ones that know where Kara is are me and J'onn," Alex told him. "And the next time you act like this, I will shoot you in the leg with a lead bullet." She threatened, Mon-El walked away then Alex walked off to take a shower, thinking about how Kara was doing on Earth-1 with her friend: Barry Allen aka The Flash.
There is the first chapter and I hope it was good enough for you SuperFlash fans. How did you like Harry taking Joe's role of giving Barry advice? I watched a lot of Barry X Kara vids to come up with this.
It would great if you leave me a review of how this was for you.
See you all next time!
