Caitlin's P.O.V.
The speech has gone well, and we are all now in the accelerator had turned on without a hitch. Ronnie has just explained that if there was a big bang that something would have gone horribly wrong and we'd all be in huge trouble. Afterward, Dr. Wells, our boss, gave another short speech and popped the cork off of the champagne bottle. That was the moment everything changed, for the better or for worse.
Lea's P.O.V.
Lea Lane here, just thought I should quickly introduce myself. Anyway, off came the cork and what did the champagne do? IT FLOATED up and out of the bottle, it then splattered all over the floor. The floating champagne was soon followed by a huge bang. Ronnie was the first to speak, "Well, Cisco, there's your loud bang. Now we're in some serious trouble." Wells immediately sprung into action.
"Lane, Ramon, Raymond! Go shut down the accelerator!" We quickly ran down to the entrance chamber, or whatever it's called.
"The only way I can shut it down is manually, which is from the inside." Ronnie shouted,
"I'm most likely, okay, I'm 99.9% sure that I won't live." I felt my eyes filling with tears, "You can't do then, I'll do it. My sister's and dad have everyone. What about Caitlin?
What will she do without you? Her mom ignores her, her sisters, she lost contact with," Ronnie looked at his feet, and shook his head.
"I know, I know, but do you know how to operate the shutdown valve?" I shook my head. "That's what I thought."
As we closed the door, Caitlin ran in, heels clicking madly on the metal floor. "Where's Ronnie?" She asked frantically, tears already streaming down her face, which told Cisco and I that she already knew.
Caitlin's P.O.V.
I don't know why I even asked. "Cisco!" came a voice from the walkie talkie that Cisco was clutching in his hand.
"Ronnie!" my hand shot forward, and grabbed the device.
"Cait, go back upstairs, get yourself to safety," Ronnie said frantically.
"No, I won't leave you down here to die!" I cried panicking.
"Cisco!" Ronnie shouted.
"I've operated the shutdown valve! You need to turn it off, whatever you do, under no circumstance, DON'T OPEN THE DOOR!" Ronnie shouted.
"I'm on it!" Cisco replied, and along with Lea leapt into action.
"Cait, whatever happens,"
"No, don't talk like that. We will get through this." I heard myself crying.
"I need to tell you something, whether or not I survive I need to tell you this." "You will survive!" I insisted, not sure if I was trying to convince Ronnie or myself.
"Can you please let me say this?" I was silent and he continued.
"I love you Cait, I know it's a bit soon, but I need to tell you just in case. On my nightstand, there's a silver ring that has flat sides. I think it's an octagon. I want you to have it, I'm not sure if it will fit on your finger. If it doesn't, please just wear it on a chain and remember me."
Ronnie trailed off, and I felt a knot growing in the pit of my stomach.
"Of course I'll keep it and I love you too. Screw it being too soon," Ronnie laughed, and then there was another huge bang.
"Cait," Ronnie said frantically.
"If anything happens, just let yourself be happy, move on, don't mourn me, and forget to live, just remember I love you," he said clearly crying now.
"I love you too." Suddenly, I felt arms wrap around me.
"Lea, take care of her, you too Cisco, make sure she lives her life." Ronnie said, and there was another huge bang.
"Tell everyone I love them. Cait, remember what I said, and I love you." There was a blast of cold air and a bang that was clearly a barrier rupturing.
"Ronnie!" I screamed feeling as if a small piece of me have died too. Little did I know, things were about to get a lot worse.
Barry 1's P.O.V.
Barry, er, Bart, you know what we are going to stick with Barry, mostly because saying Bart confuses me. Anyway, Barry and I were standing in front of the computer in the lab at CCPD, because they needed our help with a case, watching the live news at S.T.A.R. Labs on the accelerator. When out of nowhere the reporter said, "We are now being told to evacuate the facility, the storm seems to having caused amount function with the primary cooling system" The two of us glanced at each other and immediately went to close the skylight. As we were closing it I looked up only to see twin bolts of lighting strike. Both of us were thrown back into chemical racks. All I could feel was electricity surging through my body and everything went black.
Kara's P.O.V.
It has been about five minutes since STAR Labs blew a hole in Central City. My first instinct after the initial panic was to find Barry. I found him lying on top of a rack, his body faintly flickering with electricity. I immediately felt tears rushing to my eyes, then they overflowed, it was all I could do to stop myself from screaming. Pulling myself together I dialled Caitlin's number. "Kara, what's wrong?" Caitlin asked after picking up at the first tone.
"It's Barry, he got struck by lightning. Is something wrong there too? You don't seem okay." Caitlin let out a sob.
"Bring Barry here, and don't let anyone see you. The police have shut down STAR Labs and classified it as a class for hazardous location. So be careful." Caitlin let out another sob, which sounded like she had been trying to hold it back.
"Okay, and Caitlin, you didn't answer my question. Something is definitely wrong."
"I'll fill you in when you get here," Caitlin whimpered and hung up.
"Okay," I muttered to myself, picked up Barry, and flew out of the broken skylight.
Dinah's P.O.V.
Maggie and I were having another one of our stupid fights, this one over who's turn it was to wash the dishes. Which is a normal fight that goes on with us. As we were yelling back and forth there was a huge bang. Maggie's eyes widened and she screamed "Dinah!" she pointed out the window, I quickly spun on my heel to see a wave of an orange light of sorts expanding over the entire city. I screamed right as the light passed over me. Then my legs gave out, as I collapsed, I hit my head of the floor. I heard Maggie calling my name, then everything went dark and I lost consciousness.
Ariana's P.O.V.
As a bang sounded my first thought was to find Barry. Cat and I both flew to his lab as fast as we could. As we entered CCPD Kara flew across the sky. Cat and I glanced at each other and ran inside, up the stairs, and into Barry's lab. Lying on top of a chemical rack was Barry, his body flickering with electricity. I immediately burst into tears, I know it seems foolish seeing as I didn't even assess the situation. Cat knelt down next to Barry, obviously worried, pulled out her phone, and dialed a number. "Bella," she said as apparently my mother picked up.
"What's wrong? Is Alli okay?" Cat started crying lightly.
"Barry was struck by lightning and is in a coma. Alli is physically fine, but definitely not emotionally." Mom let audibly let out a breath.
"You two get into the strangest situations. About Barry, did you try healing spells? Never mind, of course you did. This can't be an average coma, take him to STAR Labs." I could feel my sanity slipping. Before I could even think it through my hand shot forward and latched onto Barry's hand. I felt a surge of electricity coursing through my veins.
"Ariana," Cat shouted, and everything went black.
Cat's P.O.V.
"Oh great," I shouted.
"What just happened? Did Ali do something stupid? Please tell me she didn't," Bella said exasperated, I took a deep breath.
"No, can do Bella, she's either unconscious, dead, or in a coma as well," Bella sighed.
"You have gotta be kidding me, The only thing I can think to do is check for a pulse, but be careful." She said, carefully, Reached foreword to check Alli's pulse. As soon as my fingers connected with her wrist I felt a dull shock of electricity go through my body. Bella was saying something, but it had gone fuzzy. Slowly the light was dimming. The very last thing I saw was a orange wave rippling through central city, and then I collapsed unto the floor, just as it passed over. My breath shortened and then everything disappeared all at once.
Bella's P.O.V.
Ok, I don't even know quite why we're here. Both my daughters are dead, unconscious or in a freaking coma. I was able to trace the phone reception back to the CCPD and get in before anyone else registered that they were missing. Which was good. Because policemen finding people in a coma on the floor could have been a problem. Especially since Cat does not legally exist in the magical world. Or anywhere, really. She has to keep low profile, just like Ali. So I have to get them to STAR. And fast, or who knows what will blow up.
Quinn's P.O.V.
Look, I know you haven't heard from or about me much, but I'm what people call a background character, but apparently my story has to be told. Anyway, while everyone else was off doing whatever they're doing. I was sitting in my hotel room running my fingers over my great-grandmother's wedding band, thinking about pretty much nothing. That's when STAR Labs basically blew up. Clutching the ring in my hand I ran to the window, that's when the orange light passed over. That's all there is to that.
Santana's P.O.V.
Hello people of the so-called multiverse. I'm sorry (not really) that I haven't really said anything, but unlike some people I have an actual life. Anyway, the whatever it's called blew up, which I honestly couldn't care less about, Brittany and I were sitting in a movie theatre without a care in the world, thank you very much. Now unless you want me to start insulting everyone I can think of we are done here.
Brittany's P.O.V.
Can someone please tell me what's happening? One minute I'm sitting in a theatre with Santana, and the next I'm wherever this is. Look, I might be a mathematical genius, but I'm really confused and I lost my unicorn. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go find her. Have a good day!
Evil Kara's P.O.V.
Look I don't know where I am, or who I'm talking to, but I will get back to that other earth and get my Barry, even if he doesn't want to return. And since he spilled my secret, he… will… pay. Ah, yes. And so will everybody that took him, including those three horrible, blithering idiots, miss black hair and her sister who threw me into the breach, miss crazy-eyes, and or course the blondie, who helped make it. They're all gonna pay, and I won't stop till I get my way.
Evelyn's P.O.V.
You probably have no idea who I am, but if you were paying attention you should know. So ha.
The accelerator exploded and the orange light flew over Central City. Just a side-note Cisco and I are dating, even though I had a bit of a crush on Roy before he disappeared off the face of the earth. Anyway as the light passed over me, I couldn't help worrying about both of them, that's when I saw something else to worry about. I got this weird vision of Barry, both of them I think, lying on top of chemical racks, unconscious. Grabbing my phone I dialled Ariana's number and rean out of the door towards STAR. "Hey Ariana, this is really random, but I think you should go check on Barry at CCPD, I just got this weird vision of some sort and it worried me."
"I was already on my way, gotta go, bye!" she replied hurriedly and hung up.
About ten minutes later I ran into the cortex and right into Cisco. His face was covered in tear tracks. "What happened?"
"It's a long story, I'll tell you when everyone gets here."
Lena's P.O.V.
Okay, before you say anything, yes I am a Luthor, no I'm not evil. I prefer to not talk about my past. It's honestly pretty awful and depressing, so we aren't going to get into that. When the accelerator turned on I was at the West's house getting to know Iris and her family a bit better. We were sitting on the front porch getting to know each other when, you guessed it, there was a bang. Just not what you are thinking, Wally just rocked back too far and his chair fell. By the way when the accelerator blows up, nothing really happened to me. So I'm going to turn this next part over to Iris.
Iris's P.O.V.
This next part is kinda hard to narrate. There was another large bang as Wally was picking up his chair. This time none of us really knew what was happening, (except Lena apparently) "Okay everyone, the particle accelerator just exploded expelling dark matter into the atmosphere. So, everyone needs to take off shoes, jewelry, and anything that isn't clothing and go stand on the pavement." Not even thinking to question, I slipped off my shoes and the bracelet I was wearing. I then tried to remove the silver heart pendant around my neck.
"Lena, this necklace won't come off," Lena quickly went behind me and tried to undo the clasp.
"Geez, how long has it been since you took this off? It's completely clogged with hair," she said calmly. That's the real problem with Lena, she's not evil, she's just an absolute master at hiding her true feelings.
"The only downside of having this on is you might end up with silver related powers," Lena continued calm as ever. Before I even got the chance to panic or react, the wave hit.
Kitty's P.O.V.
Okay, yay, so exciting. Okay, if I'm being honest, I always knew my life would be weird, but geez. Oh well, so all I was doing was playing with my cat that I've had since I was eight, which I stupidly named Kitty. Purely because it was a kitten, not because I named it after myself. Most people think that I am very rude and mean. They don't actually know the real me, I'm actually really shy and insecure, but I can act like no one's business. Quinn's words not mine. All I was doing was sitting in a chair with Kitty the cat and then, you guessed it, congratulations you're a genius, there was a huge bang. Honestly, I didn't really care until the wave of light hit. Granted, I didn't really do anything. So that's it, I'm not really sure what the point was.
Marley's P.O.V.
Um, I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to do. All that happened with me is Sebastian almost falling off the ladder while changing a lightbulb. That's enough of a nerve racking experience for me for awhile, So I'm done with this narrating thing.
Sebastian's P.O.V.
I didn't almost fall off of a ladder, you've got the wrong Allen, and that's all I have to say.
Cat Grant's P.O.V.
I have no idea why I am doing this, apparently whoever's in charge of this thought it would be funny. AND no I didn't I was just in a weird mood.
Felicity's P.O.V.
Hi again, sorry about all of the depressing stuff going on. I thought it would be fun. Not really If you didn't enjoy that, then that's your problem, and I don't really care. I did get hit by the dark matter and it didn't affect me, because it only affects certain people. Never mind, I think I have computer powers. Just kidding, I'm just really smart. On to the next chapter with more bouncing around between points of view.
