The Fanatical, chapter 3.

"Open the door Kara." Barry knocked once more at the door. "I know you're in there." He knocked even harder. "Please Kara, let me explain !"

It had been a week since the last time they had seen each other. Since then, Barry had tried to contact Kara by any means, without success. He had looked for her in Catco, but when she saw him she fled somewhere far away from him. He had called her on the number she had given him the first night, but it didn't take him long to understand that she had blocked him. A thing that Barry understood is that Kara was asking for space for a few moments. But knowing her so far from him and mad at him was gnawing him from the inside. No, she wasn't angry she was disappointed, thought Barry.

"Anyway... once again Kara, I am sorry. For everything." There were a dozen possibilities for him to enter to her apartment. He could phase, open a breach inside ... or just open the door, which wasn't locked. But for it to work, he needed Kara to open it. "I'll be at S.T.A.R Labs if you need me. Can you just... think of the possibility to forgive me, please ?"

He waited a few seconds for an answer that never came, and then remained in his thoughts all the way to S.T.A.R labs. It's funny how interdimensional traveling seems so futile now.

A shrill sound echoed in his ears just as he entered the laboratory walls, contrasting with his depressive thoughts.

"BARRY ALLEN, WHY THE HELL IS THERE TOMATO SAUCE ON MY SUIT ?"

Oh boy, he definitely didn't need that right now.

Earth-38, an hour ago.

Kara had just extinguished a beginning of fire late at night. It wasn't a big deal, but this kind of small intervention helped her escape the drama of her current life, so she accepted it with joy. But as she was hiding in a dark alley near her building to change into more civilian clothes, she had been surprised by a flash of light.

"A speedster ?" Kara asked with amazed eyes. In front of her was a cluster of luminescent metal taking a humanoid form.

"Not just any, the God of speed." Answered the thing in a metallic voice. His tone seemed menacing, showing her that he was certainly not here to be friendly.

"What.." Kara was taken by surprise and missed the words. She analyzed him for a few seconds, which represented hours for the both of them. Staring at that humanoid thing, she thought of all the Speedsters that she could think of. At first she couldn't put her finger on it, but it's when she noticed the tip of the blade at the end of his wrist that she understood and that her face turned pale. "You're the one who.." she whispered.

"Indeed I am." He responded.

"... killed Iris." She finished her sentence as a single tear streamed down her cheek.

At his nonchalance when he admitted being the person who had broken her friend and killed his girlfriend, Kara just saw red and slap the thing right into the face.

"I barely felt that." Mocked the 'god of speed', grimacing and touching the back of his neck to make sure it wasn't broken.

"Why are you here and what do you want from me ?" She demanded answers from him, but laughter came out of his throat of metal.

"I guess you never get used to a kryptonian slap, right ?" Her face stayed strong. "Chill Kara, I don't remember you being so cold. That looks really bad on you." He laughed. At her questioning look, he continued. "I guess he didn't tell you who I am, didn't he ?" She signed a no with her head, prompting him to develop. "Of course he didn't. Too coward to tell the truth, as always."

The machine moved a few steps from Kara and knelt down. The blue lights dried up and the back of the machine opened in half, extending its metal pieces like butterfly wings.

A frail man came out. Standing there, facing the girl of steel, the air was cold icy. She recognized him immediately, of course, but did not say a word. She was just staring at him. After a few seconds, the man who looked like Barry couldn't look at her in the eyes anymore and looked down, as if he felt shame in spite of himself.

The man we now named Savitar wouldn't admit it, but he was trying to hide his horrible scar from the woman in front of him. After a minute that felt almost like a year, the woman approached him closely, almost maternally and softly put her hand on his scar. She whispered with teary eyes :

"What kind of monster could have did this to you ?"

"The kind of monster that haunts you forever." He said after an hesitating pause. His stare was still down, so she forced him to head up.

"Look at me Barry." She encouraged him by putting her fingers under his chin.

"That's not my name." He spit.

"What do you mean ?"

"That's not my name. I'm not your Barry. Your Barry was born in illusion, gentleness and weakness. In a world where people make you believe that everything is good and fair and logic... I was born in anger, rage and with the taste of power. The name is Savitar."

"I... I am not sure to understand... Savitar ?"

"I guess it's the time where the big bad explain all his plan to make it clearer, isn't it ? Ok, I'll do you that favor." He stared at the building. "But first let's go upstairs."

The next thing Kara knew is that she now was in her loft. That was fast, like really fast, even for her. As she tried to recover from the disorientation, she saw that Savitar was already standing at the window, watching National City all the way up.

"What you need to know is that I'm from the future. I came into the world when your Barry created me for a major crisis. I am a time remnant, Kara."

Kara stood up from the sofa and walked towards him to grab his arm.

"What a foolish thing to think that because you're a time remnant means you're not Barry. It doesn't define who you are." She assured motherly while chuckling gently.

Savitar groaned at the thought of being Barry. He would not waste his time contradicting her, he knew that it was pointless. Kara stroked his scar once more. "How did this happen ?" She asked.

He pushed her hand away brutally and his eyes filled with hatred.

"I know you're angry with Barry right now. But one day, you end up forgiving him. You keep thinking that it is only a phase and that he will stop thinking of you as a God, but he continues and gets more crazy with it. But worst of all, you look away."

As he spoke he came slowly but dangerously close to her, forcing her to walk backward. On his threatening grip on her that would almost seemed sensual, Kara has been trapped between Savitar and the wall.

"Until he crosses a line, and that you burn my face for it." He sent her a glance that could kill her a thousand time in once. "You know for a smart girl, it was the dumbest thing to do." He whispered at her ear, which gave her goosebumps.

"What... what did he do ?" Kara gulped, terrified to be the one who burned Barry's face.

"Huh-uh, spoiler alert." Savitar smirked while watching her with puzzled eyes.

"Then why ? Why showing up now if you don't want to say anything ?" Her narrowness with Savitar's face forced her to look away, showing once more that the speedster dominated her.

"To say thank you." He made a big smile that froze her blood. "You refused to be his god, so I decided to become one. And now, you'll have to deal with it while watching him falling."

Knocks sounded at the main door. Kara used her X-ray vision to see Barry standing over there, with a single rose on his hand. He wanted to apologize. "Kara please, I just wan't to say I'm sorry." She and Savitar heard.

She looked to the evil version of him and found him smiling. "See ? That's how it's starting."

"I'll stop you." Assured Kara in a low voice, with confidence emanating from it. "You won't hurt anyone else." All she wanted to do was to open that door and take Barry in her arms, but Savitar knew better.

"Will you ? Look at my face Kara. Look at me and say that you could kill me. I remember that one night, the night where you discovered the true Barry. You thought it was his doppelgänger, so you felt free to make confidences. You said that you had a crush on him, I bet it's still the case isn't it ? Now tell me that you'll have the guts to pull out my heart with your bare hands and watching out my livid face with no more life on it." He defied her. "We're both an equal match. If you want to take the win you're able to. But you can't." He approached her and whispered. "You're weak."

The only thought that went through Kara's mind was the one that haunted her for months. "Shame on me for having a human heart."

Knocks at the door stopped, and Kara could hear Barry's last words, telling her that if she wanted to talk to him she could meet him at S.T.A.R Labs. Kara immediately thought of all the means she could find to prevent Barry to become Savitar, and how she was about to confront him on the subject. But as if he was reading her thoughts, Savitar intervened. "You won't tell him anything."

Kara got cold again, almost mocking Savitar. "Why ? I thought you planned everything and that Barry was already aware of your identity ? You're afraid we find a way to stop you ?"

"No." He smirked. "I have already set up the gears for his fall. I killed Iris to lead him to you. I made him feel helpless, at the mercy of the world and made everything right for him to worship you. And now, he will do just that way until he loses control and then realizes that he can become a god as well. One way or another, I come to existence. You only have to watch him sink."

"That won't happen. Barry would never become you. He won't. Not if he realizes that he is your puppet."

"His destiny is to become me. But we both know him. If he discovers exactly how I'm born, then he will deny everything so that it does not happen. This boy is a wretch but he has will, I acknowledged that. But timeline is fragile, like a new born. Some event are meant to happen. If you force him to change his destiny, something that big, then I'll disappear, yes. But without enough vital force, he won't be able to get through a new timeline, and he will disappear as well." He approached her and played with a lock of her hair. Then he looked up. "The only way to end me is to kill me. And if you want to fight, I'm waiting for you. But... I don't think you have the stomach for that."

The evil Speedster gave her a haughty look, then fled in a flash of blue light that Kara could barely perceive. She took a deep breath, and an other, and an other, trying to calm down. And as she looked, she noticed Barry's single rose waiting on her step door. She knew what she had to do. She had to fight him. But to do so, she needed to train.

S.T.A.R Labs, 1 hour later.

"Chill Cisco, it's just tomato sauce. It'll leave with the washing machine." Barry sighed at the angry hispanic man in front of him.

"The washing machine ? THE WASHING MACHINE YOU SAID ? This suit requires the greatest care. It must be washed by a delicate hand who knows what she is doing. Why do you even eat Big Belly Burger in your suit and not in normal clothes like everyone else?" He shouted.

Barry smirked. "I'm pretty sure not everyone else as a suit though."

Cisco's face turned red. "Ok, this is done, I am done. From now on, you'll take an extreme care to that suit, or you'll have to go save people in underwear. It would never happen again do you hear me ? Not under my watch."

"Huh, if I may this is suit is actually mine. So I can technically do whatever I want to do with it. Plus, this is tomato sauce, pretty sure no one will notice it on a red suit." Barry chuckled.

"No ? No no no no, no and no ! This is OUR suit ! You're not the Flash, Barry," Cisco shot him an unhinged look and pointed at Barry and himself with the tip of his finger. "We are."

"Ok now this is creepy." Answered Barry.

A throat clearing from the back of the room disturbed their argument. Kara stood in the doorway, arms folded and an embarrassed smile stuck on her face. "Kara ?" Said Barry, more than happy.

"Yes." She smiled timidly before walking towards him and took him in her arms for a bear cuddle.

"I'm sorry for what I said, I didn't mean it." He cried, burying his face in her neck.

"I know, and I forgive you." She said, tightening her grip.

Cisco seemed to have calmed down. He looked at the both of them and mumbled grumpily something like "I'll let you both talk." He walked towards the front door, but he was arrested by Kara's hand.

"Salt and dishwashing liquid should do the job. Don't forget to rinse with cold water." He smiled sincerely, thanking her and then walked away.

Barry finally released his grip on Kara, took a step back and watched her puffy face. She had visibly cried. "Hey Kara, what's wrong ?"

She thought for a moment about her fight with Savitar up to come. He was strong, and she needed to train. But to do that, she needed Barry's help without telling him the truth. She would put it an end. She would kill Savitar if she had to, and she would stop him from forcing Barry to become that madman of religion, that turned into the Devil. Tomorrow, Supergirl will rise against Savitar. But first, she needed to ask that burning question.

"Do you still think that I'm a god ?" She asked, fearing the answer.

"Yes, I do." He answered ashamed.

But Barry didn't expect her to beg him in such a desperate way. "Then please, make me believe it.."

...

...

So, how was it ? Did you like it ? It tried my best to do Savitar as accurate as I could concerning he's personality, and I actually think that I did a good job lol. I already written chapter 4, and this story will finally be 5, maybe 6 chapter (I'll see with the length) so yeah, forgot about the tree-shot lol, sorry. Please, be sure to leave a comment and tell me how I can improve myself. Until next time !
