"You!" I ran into the city and heard someone calling at me over and over but I was too focused on the two figures in the sky, trying to close a giant wormhole. I saw the lightning that could only belong to Barry. "Hey!" Cisco ran over to me and grabbed my arm. I looked at him but he was too busy looking at Barry.
"Cisco, what is going on?!"
"You have to get to safety- wait, who are you?" The ground shook and the wormhole disappeared. Barry came falling back to the ground and when he hit, everyone ran to his side. "Barry!"
"Guys, what is happening?" I noticed Caitlin staring up at the sky. "What are you looking for?" Tears started falling but she started paying attention to Barry. I stood back, totally lost in the commotion.
Two weeks later, I was staying in a hotel and I hadn't seen any of Team Flash since the day of the wormhole or heard anything from Team Arrow since I left. I went to STAR Labs and carefully walked through the hallways. I eventually made it to the main lab, the Cortex. Cisco and Caitlin were sitting at the desk and the Flash suit was missing. I sighed and dropped my bag on the floor.
They turned in their chairs, slowly, and looked at me. "Who are you and why are you here?"
"Don't you recognize me?" I raised an eyebrow at the two and Cisco made the connection.
"Mari." He smiled and stood up. He latched onto me and I hesitantly hugged him back. "I'm glad to see one of our friends is feeling back to normal. Like normal normal, real normal. Not crazy homicidal normal."
"Yeah. I am. I'm a new person now and I'm glad. The person I was before was unstable, broken, and easily manipulated." I sat down in Cisco's chair. "Thinking about it now, Slade can't tell me who I am or who I have to be. I'm free to become a new person, a better person."
"Then you shouldn't be Mari Jacobs or Killer Prime anymore. I want to make you a new identity so you really can be that new person." Caitlin started typing into her computer as I sat, shocked.
"Why would you do that after I murdered people in this city, nearly killed Detective West and held Cisco in a chokehold until he passed out?"
"Okay, we never need to speak of that. My pride already took that hit once."
Caitlin sighed. "Cisco, we've been over this, she's a trained assassin, you are a nerd. You didn't stand a chance." She shook her head. "Who do you want to be now?" Caitlin looked at me, waiting.
I thought for a moment. "Briana Merlyn." I smiled and looked at Cisco. "No more Killer Prime. You made Canary's collar, I want you to make me something."
"What? I didn't make any collar..." He said as Caitlin's eyes widened.
"Whoops. I thought she knew."
"Canary made me swear to never tell." I bit my lip and and gave him an apologetic smiled. "Okay, I have to ask. What is in the duffel?" I gestured for him to open it. He did and he fell back on the floor. "Dear God." He pulled he mask out and showed Caitlin who couldn't help but laugh at seeing what scared Cisco so badly. "Why did you bring this?"
"I don't know really. I guess as a way to end Killer Prime. I thought since you thought I was pretty kick ass, you could do something with the uniform. And the weapons, which I've definitely neutralized."
"This is going to sound weird but I really want this to be displayed somewhere."
"Where would you put that on display? It's not like everyone loved Killer Prime or Deathstroke."
"I don't know yet. I'll decide later. But now, I want to work on your new weapons."
