Hazy Caitlin woke up, tried to orientate. It took her a minute to realise where she was. She found herself in the cortex, in one of the cramped cells, which she really hated. For a few more minutes her eyes were fogged and it was difficult to focus on anything. After she managed that, she saw a person laying beside her. Another moment and she figured out, it was Julian who slept next to her. Slowly she tried to stand up but she tumbled, her body dragged her back to the floor, her head was hurting too. The cortex cell was dark, the door before the cortex cell had been closed but she didn't know why she and Julian lay here.

Hardly she tried to remember anything that happened before, but the last thing which came in her mind was the conversation between Cisco and H.R.. She sighed. After an eternity of trying to force her mind to tell her what had happened she heard Julian waking up. "Julian?" she asked him quietly after he looked at her. A weary smile appeared on his face. "How are you?" he asked her.
"Fine – I think. What happened? I barely remember anything."

It was the thing he though long about the evening before, about Caitlin and how Killer Frost ended. Two things came into his mind. First, he supposed he needed to tell her what she did when she became Killer Frost. This was because he as Alchemy always, except the last time, forgot what he did when he was his alter ego. The second thing that came into his mind was the fact that they could persuade Caitlin to infiltrate Savitar, so they were able to find out who he was. But he wouldn't ever do anything again without her permission. He would first talk with Cisco about this before he would enforce her to go back to Savitar.

But first things first! So Julian told Caitlin everything that went so terribly wrong. How he ripped of her necklace to saved her, how she turned full Killer Frost and how he became Alchemy again. While he was talking, her warm brown eyes, and he really appreciate that they went back to their natural colour again, fixated his blue ones. One or two times a light shock hit her, her expression turned sad in the end. "I – I wanted to kill Cisco?" was the first thing coming out of her mouth. Tears ran down her cheeks and she looked away, stared on the wall behind Julian. "Yes." he said very quiet. His eyes became glassy too, it was hard for him to talk about the last month. And when he finished he looked away ashamed. "I'm so sorry Caitlin." he sobbed. "But – But I didn't know what else to do. It was all my fault. I made you the one thing you feared the most." His sight fixated on the floor, he was embarrassed, not able to look at her ever again. Out of the sudden he could feel her, unexpectedly warm, hand on his cheeks. A faint smile formed around her lips. "I should be angry with you because of what you did, but I'm exhausted of being angry with people." Irritated Julian looked at her. Was it right what he just heard? She wasn't angry?
"But – I don't understand. I did a horrible thing. I ignored your wish, I made your worst fear come true." The words barely came out of his mouth, tears filled his eyes again, he sobbed badly. "It's okay." Caitlin said calmly and gave him a slight hug. The man was so happy, she acted like this, though he didn't understand why. He responded the hug and let himself fall into her arms. He felt as though he was the one who became someone else and she was the one who saved him.

A long moment they hugged each other and exchanged their sadness. Both of them felt good with the situation, none of them spoke the next hour, they just expressed their feelings, the darkness in the small room also helped, so nobody would see their tears. The morning vanished and nearly mid-day Cisco opened the outer door to the cortex. Julian and Caitlin were both blended by the light and Cisco looked sleepily into their eyes. "Good morning, sunshine." he said half asleep. "I bet you both would like to get out of here, am I right?" Both nodded at once, still not able to speak much. "Great." he replied and open the cell door.

Julian took Caitlins hand and helped her to stand up. It was a bit difficult for her the first minutes to stay because her legs were numb. She appreciated his warm hand and strong arm, to hold her. Therefore she didn't let go his hand when she stood safely. Hand in hand they walked into the centre of the building, followed by Cisco. "Look who we have here." he said enjoyable. The room was quite full. Everyone was there and it seemed they had a tactic discussion about what to do next. Everyone looked at them with sceptical looks on their faces. It was just natural that they would act like they did. Caitlin was Killer Frost just one day before and Julian also wasn't himself as much as he wished at last. But they were back to normal and he hoped that everyone would understand the situation. "Caitlin?" Barry asked as he did a step into their direction. Caitlin's cold, but not that cold, hand closed a bit tighter and Julian could see so much remorse in her eyes. "I'm so so sorry." she whispered, her grasp becoming even tighter once more. But instead of being angry, Barry walked another step and finally hugged Caitlin, who responded it after a short balk. "I'm..no we all are glad that you are back." he said honestly. After they dissipate their hug Barry tuned towards Julian. "Thank you. Thank you for bringing her back." he said and patted his shoulder. Julian was a bit irritated, because this wasn't the welcoming he expected. "Don't thank me mate. I'm not proud of what I did." Barry smiled and Caitlin grabbed his hand again. "But you can Julian. Honestly. Because of you Caitlin isn't dead and she is also with us again." A small smirk appeared on Julian's lips. It was true though and he would always do the same again. Because he really loved Caitlin and could never let her die, no matter what happened. "So." interrupted Joe. "What are we supposed to do with Savitar? You recognised, that guy is still out there and we still need to find out who he is." "Oh noo." It was H.R. who wasn't happy about that circumstance. "I hate that guy." he said desperately. A long time nobody said anything until Julian broke the silence. "Maybe I know a way." he said. All eyes looked at him all of a sudden, as though they were a bit shocked. "B-but I don't know if it's the best and safest way."

The silence lasted a long time. They all waited for him to continue but he was not sure if he should share his thought with the team or even think of it as a good idea.
