Hey everyone.
Tests and Testing.
At five months, putting the new family in the second week of December, the year was coming to an end, but the new beginnings had already began by the first day of December.
Come December first, Sunday afternoon, the family was sitting around the living room. The chairs and the furniture had been placed further from their original spot to make room for the family of four. "You think it'll snow next Saturday?" Barry asked Kara, holding Nichole by her hands and bouncing her in front of him gently.
"I don't know." Kara said bitterly as she held a soft teething ring for Allie to chew on.
"Come on. You know Caitlin, Kara. She carries those things around. She took a sample from me after we discovered I couldn't get drunk."
"Not just her, but she's the doctor."
"She didn't take blood."
"She could of taken our babies blood, without talking to us, because she's obsessed with blood!"
"No, she and everyone else are curious about their possible powers." Barry reminded her playfully. "Kara, even your cousin and Cat are curious."
"Nobody else needs to stick their noses into this!" Kara said loudly. "They're our children and we decided what is good for them. Besides their Kryptonian powers that start after they turn a year old, if they have any other power than we'll learn to deal with it once they show it."
"Wouldn't it be better to know now than later when they set a house on fire or someone else?" Barry asked her. "Look, I think we should just let them get tested. There is a small, very small, chance that they will just have your Kryptonian powers and not individual powers."
"Who's side are you on?" Kara asked.
"No one's side. I'm just curious about their powers, that's all." Barry implied. "What are we suppose to say if one of them is, like, Banshee or Black Out and electrocutes or sonic screams at people?"
Kara shook her head in disbelief. "No, that won't happen. They're good babies."
"I'm not saying they're bad babies, Kara. I'm just suggesting we should—"
"NO!" Kara shouted. Her eyebrows narrowed together and stared at Barry with evil death written on her face. "They're good babies."
Barry, a bit annoyed now, placed Nichole down to the side next to another teething toy. "Why are you so snappy lately?"
"What?"
"You've been nothing but snappy the past few weeks." He pointed out. "Anytime someone talks about the girls powers, you get snappy."
"Because that's all I hear from anyone!" Kara shouted. She placed Allie next to her sister, her own teething ring toy in her mouth, and turned back to Barry with crossed arms. "All I hear from everyone the past couple of weeks is testing them and wondering what their powers are."
"You can't be telling me that you aren't curious, are you?"
"Frankly, I'd be a lot happier if they didn't have powers."
"Good chance they won't."
"No, they'll still have my powers!"
Barry found himself sitting up straight and trying to figure out Kara. She'd be happy if they didn't have powers? "I'm lost."
"I'd be a lot freaking happier if they didn't have any powers! No individual powers and no Kryptonian powers. Just plain old, not powerful, normal little girls." The blonde mother said.
"They're totally normal, Kara." Barry bitterly asserted. Now he was very annoyed. "And to be honest, I'm curious."
"I don't want them tested on!"
"But I want them tested on!"
Kara felt herself losing her temper slowly. Not wanting to cause a scene for the babies to cry about, Kara stood up quickly and began walking out of the room.
"Where are you going?" Barry asked.
"Going out before I laser your frigging brains out." Kara called back.
Barry ran to her in a micro second. "Kara, don't walk away from this."
"Barry. Move. Out. Of. The. Way." Kara stressed.
"Kara."
Kara ran under his arm and ran out the front door. Barry was quick behind her, but stopped when Kara's shirt and pants landed in his face. He moved them off enough just to see the last speck of Kara flying off.
Angry Kara. Oh dear!
