Author's Note: I know I marked this one as done but y'all seemed to like it so I'm gonna continue on with episode two. Gonna change up the Captain Cold episode to suit my needs but don't worry he'll still get the gun and maybe even the girl BWAHAHAHA. I'm gonna try and condense the episodes dawn as much as I can so I can get to the Coldflash bits faster. Anyway, I own nothing.

13 Dizzy Spells

Barry grinned as she raced out of the fire the last person left outside with the others. She raced away as the fire truck approached. She was about a mile away from the scene when she deemed it safe to pull to a stop in an alleyway. She wanted to pull down her cowl but decided against it in case anyone saw her. She tapped the communicator built into the neck of her suit.

"Everyone's out. What else you got for me Cisco?" There was a pause before there was a response, but not the one she was expecting.

"Barry it's Caitlin." Barry tensed swearing under her breath. She tried to sound nonchalant.

"Hey Caitlin. How's your day?" Caitlin sighed exasperatedly.

"Get back to Star Labs, now!" Barry nodded to herself.

"On my way." She released the button and made to set off at a run but stumbled and had to grab hold of the dumpster next to her to steady herself. She shook her head and took a deep breath. In a moment, the feeling was gone and she raced off to Star Labs. One long rant from Caitlin later Barry was quickly changing in one of the back rooms and racing off to a crime scene to do her day job. She was collecting evidence as Joe and Eddie canvased witnesses when her phone rang. She pulled off a glove and glanced down at the caller ID. It was Oliver. She stepped under the yellow tape and answered the phone as she shut her case.

"Hello Oliver." It was a long conversation, one that Barry didn't really enjoy, but she did end up agreeing with Oliver. It was best that they just stayed friends, safer for everyone involved and just easier. Long distance relationships didn't tend to work out and with both of them having 'night' jobs neither of them would have the time needed to make that kind of relationship work. Barry wanted to be mad at Oliver for forcing himself to be a martyr but really it was a very large part of his personality so she just shook her head at him, and the reasons did make sense. She was in the middle of analyzing evidence from the gun store when she felt another dizzy spell and was forced to grab hold of the desk to stop herself from collapsing onto the hard floor.

"I blame you Barry. I could have taken European folklore to cover my sociology requirement but no you said take journalism Iris, reporters have all of the fun. Guess what Barry? Reporters have none of the fun. Journalism is boring. I'm bored. I blame you." Barry shook her head as she glanced over at her foster sister who was dressed up in a pink lacy dress and matching heels. Iris raised an eyebrow.

"What?" Barry shook her head again, partially in answer to Iris's question partially to try and clear the lingering dizziness from her head.

"Nothing you look nice. Date night?" Iris frowned blushing slightly as she had for the past few days whenever Barry teased her about Eddie.

"No, and you should look nice too! Remember the university is honoring Simon Stag with some award and you promised to explain the science for my article." Barry nodded remembering quite clearly that conversation now. She swore under her breath. Iris leaned on the table.

"How fast can you get home and change?" Barry grinned to herself.

"Pretty fast." Barry raced home and dug through her closet but couldn't find a good dress then she tripped over her suitcase, the one she'd taken to Starling and grinned slightly. She changed rapidly and braided her hair as she rushed down the stairs. Iris stared for a moment as Barry got into her car. Barry glanced at the radio's clock.

"We're gonna be late." Iris shook her head as they began the drive.

"Where the heck did that dress come from Barry?" Barry smiled lightly.

"It was a gift. From Oliver." Barry explained the circumstances of how she'd been given the dress and Iris shook her head.

"Curse you and your nerd allure." Barry laughed.

"Oliver and I had a talk earlier today. We both decided that a long-distance relationship wasn't going to work out." Iris shook her head patting her foster sister on the hand.

"I'm sorry Barry. What about that cute guy who bought you coffee at Jitters?" Barry grinned a little.

"We've been texting, I think he might ask me out soon. He seems nice. Say's he works in art acquisition." Iris raised an eyebrow.

"Like for an art gallery?" Barry shrugged.

"He wasn't specific but yeah that's what it sounded like to me." Iris nodded as she pulled into the parking lot.

The ceremony itself went well but then the robbers, they had to be the same ones from the gun store, six guys with identical guns, showed up. Barry glared as they took Iris's necklace. Iris put a hand on her shoulder. Then the security guard stepped up to try and stop them. They took the shot all at the same time and Barry acted yanking the security guard out of the way at super speed leaving him in the back entrance of the building. She raced out of the building and was about to take off after the van when a wave of dizziness overcame her and she collapsed to her knees trying to breathe through it. Her world spun and went gray and then everything went black. She didn't even feel herself hit the pavement.
