Thanksgiving, No Forgiving.
"Isn't the point of throwing a Thanksgiving party, is throwing it at your place?" Cisco asked. "And not at, say, Joe's house."
"My neighbor hates babies. She eats them." Caitlin said. "One cry from either baby and she'll call the cops for noise."
"Well just explain there's a cop at the party handling it." Cisco. "It's taking a while because the parents are, I don't know, letting the babies soothe themselves." He laughed.
"I'm not risking them being eaten by Mrs. Pots."
"A tea pot eat babies?" Cisco smirked. "Poor little Chip."
Iris walked into the room from the kitchen with a bowl of squash in her hands. "Hey, I invited a friend from work over sort of last minute. He's new in town and is saving up to go back to Florida in a few weeks."
"That's fine. What's his name."
"Jason Miles. He's a bit shy but pretty intelligent."
"What does he write about?"
"He's a computer technician. He's always working on the broken down computers, but fixes almost everything electrical." Iris smiled. "He also claims his grandma's apple pie is out of this world amazing."
"We should get Kara to answer that when she gets here to state that." Cisco laughed. "Speaking of which, wonder where—"
Before a word can be said the multiverse door opened and Kara, with Eliza, Alex and Winn holding onto her, flew out. "Hi guys!" Caitlin greeted.
"Hey everyone!" Kara said. After a few quick greeting exchanges Kara said to Caitlin, "Lucy's sister was throwing a last minute Thanksgiving thing in National City, so James went with her for the day."
"What about Clark?"
"He promises to be here for Christmas." She said. "Oh! You have to see the new pictures of him with the babies! My dorky cousin is even more of dork but a cute dork!"
"I brought pumpkin pie that I made." Alex said.
"Yeah, made it at a store this morning." Winn laughed.
"Where are the girls?"
"My dad took Thanksgiving off and Barry was working in his lab for police work, so my dad brought them to the park. He should be back soon." Iris answered, taking the plate of desserts from Eliza's hands.
No more than an hour later Joe arrived back with the four month old bundle up babies. He carried the two of them in their carriers inside. "Hi everyone,"
"Hi Joe!" / "Hey!" / "Hi dad!"
"Where's Kara and Barry?" Joe wondered. "I figure Barry would be back by now."
"Super work." Alex said, taking one of the babies and held her. "Hopefully they'll be back before Iris' friend shows up."
"Yeah. Me too."
Some time passed. Within that time both superheroes were back at the West house before Iris' work friend joined the crew. Only once did Kara have to go back to her universe to fight some crime, making the excuse that she had to change the babies upstairs and Barry joined along to help out with the excuse help.
By the time dinner came around the entire family and friends were gathered around the table; everyone giving their own thanks for family, friendship, health and kindness, the dinner began. No more than five minutes into the meal than Kara received a call from James informing her on an attack at the Thanksgiving Parade in National City.
"Um, I have this...uh, work thing," She said and excused herself and left for outside.
It was silent for a moment or two after she left. "So, how did you and Kara meet?" Jason asked.
"Work."
"Different jobs?"
"I had work in National City and stopped in some place to get pizza."
"Yeah, Kara, another friend of ours and I went to get pizza and while in there someone knocked Kara over by accident and Barry caught her." Winn added.
"Oh. Cool."
Kara flew back into the Allen universe only to find herself in Barry's old bedroom, with Barry standing in the room changing one of the crying babies. "Everything good?" He asked.
"Yeah." Kara said and picked up the second crying baby, smell the diaper. "Yuck! Nichole! Did you hold everything until last minute?" She asked as she reached over to the diaper bag.
The two returned downstairs after getting the babies to sleep for a bit and Kara nearly forgetting her glasses.
"These mashed potatoes are good. How did you make them this good?"
"It's a family recipe. I have the recipe in my bag if anyone wanted it." Eliza said.
"I'll grab it." Kara said just before she sat back down next to Barry.
Kara walked over to where all the bags were and proceeded to grab Eliza's bag. Unluckily she knocked over the other bags as well, emptying the contents inside. She sighed and began to restock the bags from knowing which item belonged to who. She found the syringe needles that Caitlin always carried around and began to place the empty needles into her bag when Kara noticed the writing on the syringes. N. Allen. A. Allen. Kara stared at the blood collecting tool in disbelief.
"Kara, are you okay?" Alex called from the table. No word. "Kara?"
Everyone saw the blonde walk quickly out of the living room and dash up the stairs in quick speed. "Kara?" Eliza called for her.
"I'll check on her." Alex stood up and walked towards the stairs.
"Kara?" Alex called and knocked on Barry's childhood door. "Kara, I know you can see me."
She heard shuffling inside but no door opened.
"Kara, I'm not going to break this door down."
Nothing.
Alex sighed. She knew she was, probably literally, going to pay for this. Alex stood back and kicked the door down. She stepped inside to find the room empty. No Kara, no babies. "Kara?"
Barry followed up behind Alex, finding the door knocked down and Alex in his room. There he found his girlfriend and daughters missing. "What the hell?"
Oh dear, poor Kara.
I'm going to miss Flash tonight, because I have to binge watch season 2 on Netflix this week because I kept missing the episodes when they aired. I only watched maybe 2 episodes of season 2. :(
Up next; Kara's nightmare!
