The rest of the episode :)
And in response to TheAsterousAuthor: (Both reviews) It might be Cute-Random-Civilian Jake… guess you'll just have to wait ;) Oh and yeah, Maya is a blonde… for now *smirks evilly*.
And on with the story…
Maya was swinging around on a chair behind the desk whilst Harrison Wells looked at the screen
"Fascinating," Wells nodded, "a metahuman who can manipulate poison gas…"
Cisco strolled into the room, "Is it just poison gas or can he control all aerated substances?"
Caitlin cut in, "And how is he able to formulate the connection? Is it physiological or psychological?"
"Um," Maya butted in, they all turned to look at her, "How come we're all assuming it's a man? We do know women can be metahumans as well…"
Joe and Barry stood, arms crossed, in front of the quartet as the scene unfolded- Joe looked slightly baffled at the conversation.
"It seems this individual can make a mental nexus using gases or substances," Wells nodded, Maya smiled approvingly.
"You mean connects with gases on a molecular level?" Cisco grinned.
"Yes," Wells replied.
"That is ridiculously cool."
"Ignoring the fact that it's also highly dangerous," Maya added, swirling around in her chair.
"He gets really excited about this stuff," Barry looked at Joe.
"The only thing I'm excited about is putting criminals behind bars," Joe deadpanned, "except Iron Heights isn't exactly equipped to handle metahumans…"
"I guess it's fortunate the one's we've encountered so far are no longer with us," Wells stated, Maya stared at him, still wary about earlier.
"Well unless we're planning on executing every super-criminal we stop," Joe shrugged, "you geniuses are going to have to come up with some place else to hold them."
"Or, you know, we could just kill them," Maya suggested, the others turned to look at her, "or we could make a prison…"
"A metahuman prison… sweet," Cisco nodded.
"Until we can find a way to retain their powers," Wells agreed.
"There is one place here," Cisco sat up, a 'lightbulb' look on his face, "that might hold them."
Caitlin and Harrison turned to look at him.
"You can't be serious," Caitlin shook her head, "I mean we haven't been down there since the…"
Caitlin's voice caught and Maya leaned forward and rubbed her back. Damn she was becoming soft.
"It's guarded off," Caitlin exclaimed, her face strained.
"Caitlin, Cisco's right," Wells looked at the computer, "it could be modified as a make-shift prison."
"What could?" Barry asked, intrigued.
Maya sat up straighter, as realisation dawned and Harrison smiled, "The Particle Accelerator."
Caitlin looked away, her eyes becoming distant and clouded.
A few moments passed before Harrison stated he was going down.
"Caitlin? Caitlin?"
Maya tapped her shoulder, "Caitlin snap out of it."
Caitlin jolted before looking at Wells.
"Did you hear me? I'm going down to the Accelerator ring," Harrison repeated.
Barry took a deep breath, "Actually Dr Wells, I could use Caitlin's help identifying the poison gas."
"Okay," Harrison nodded looking between the two.
"If that's okay with you," Barry looked at Caitlin.
Caitlin's face relaxed and she smiled gratefully, "Let's go."
The duo turned to leave and Barry looked back at Maya who was watching Wells retreating form intently, "Blondie, you coming?"
Maya snapped back to his face and gave him a smile which made his heart race, "Sure thing, baby face."
CCPD Precinct…
The trio marched into CCPD, Maya beamed at some of the officers, she was there so often she knew most of them.
"Welcome to CCPD," Barry smiled, looking at Caitlin.
"Otherwise known as Barry's day job," Maya emphasised as they stopped at the offices.
Caitlin looked fascinated, "So this is it? Whoa."
A rough looking man stumbled past, mumbling something about ripping out Caitlin and Maya's hearts and eating them for lunch.
"Delightful," Caitlin mumbled.
"This isn't even the worst of it," Maya snorted.
"Lab rat, I need prints off this gun pronto," a female officer demanded, pushing a piece of paper at Barry.
Maya grimaced and turned to Caitlin, "It's times like these when I realise I actually prefer my job."
Caitlin laughed and Barry smiled sarcastically at the pair, then a loud voice cut through, "Allen!"
The trio turned to see Chief Singh striding towards them.
"Where the hell is the fibre analysis on the Olaf case?" the chief demanded.
Barry shook his head doubtfully and pointed up, "Upstairs. It-it's all finished I can just run up and bring it down."
Barry jogged off and Singh called after him, "If you do that it'll be three days from now, I'll go with you."
Maya and Caitlin matched his stride and the Captain looked at the girls, "I know her," he nodded to Maya, "but who the hell are you?"
"Dr Caitlin Snow," Caitlin stated, "his personal physician."
Maya held back a laugh.
They approached the lab just as Barry held out the paper, "Your fibre analysis of the Olaf case, like you asked for, Sir."
Singh took the paper and looked it over, Maya exchanged a smirk with Barry, and they both knew how much of a prick he could be.
Singh nodded before looking at Barry's lab, "Clean up your lab, it's a mess." He looked hard at Maya and Caitlin for a second before striding out.
85% Tissue Sample Complete
That's what the screen read as Barry messed with a DNA structure and Maya tapped away on her black iPhone, changing the ringtone to something… less embarrassing…
Caitlin was standing not too far away, Barry placed down the model and looked at Caitlin, "Can I ask you a question, which you don't have to answer."
"My least favourite kind," Caitlin sighed, "shoot."
Maya snorted as she locked her phone and paid attention to the conversation.
"Ronnie," Barry started, Maya tensed along with Caitlin, "what was he like? It's just, you never talk about him that much."
"We met when we were working on the Particle Accelerator, he was the structural engineer… he liked to joke that he was basically a very high priced plumber," Caitlin smiled slightly, as if a memory surfaced, she started to walk around, "we were very different. You might have noticed I can be a bit… guarded. Ronnie knew how to make me laugh, he used to say we were like fire and ice, he- he wasn't supposed to be there that night. He was just there for me, he hadn't-."
A beeping interrupted Caitlin as the machine alerted the trio that the sample was complete, she turned to look at it.
Barry looked over at Maya and she caught his gaze briefly before looking down. How had she gotten so emotional? She used to be like a rock, cold and hard.
"The results say there was no residue of gas in the tissue," Caitlin read off, "poisonous or otherwise."
Maya dropped off the table and took the results, she frowned, Barry pulled a face, "It must've evaporated; maybe we could try a fresh sample."
Maya looked over at Barry, "These results can't be right, this says there are two distinct strands of DNA inside the tissue…"
Barry brought up the sample on the screen and frowned, "How did someone else's DNA get into the victims lungs?"
Barry checked the database for any DNA matches, the results repeatedly came back empty.
"There's no match in the database," Barry shrugged.
Caitlin and Maya walked over from where they were talking in hushed tones.
"I don't understand," Caitlin sighed, "why would a chemical attack leave behind another person's DNA inside the victim?"
Barry's eyes widened, "What if the metahuman we're looking for doesn't control gas, what if he becomes it?"
'-all units, we have a report of a gas attack at Central City shopping mall,' Barry's radio transmitter caught the trio's attention and Barry jumped out of his chair.
"Barry…" Caitlin warned, "don't, we don't know enough about what we're facing."
Barry pulled out his suit from his locker.
Maya rubbed her eyes, "Barry. You can't fight this person, we don't know how to protect you or how to fight it. You'd be going out there blind."
Barry carried on and Maya grabbed his arm, "It's. Not. Safe."
"Maya," Barry looked at her pleadingly, "I have to go."
Then he ran off in a gust of wind and a blur of his blue jumper. Maya breathed deeply, turning to Caitlin.
"No, no way," Caitlin shook her head, "not you too."
"I have to help him, we don't know how powerful or dangerous this meta is, they're not showing up on the database for…" Maya stopped and Caitlin's brow furrowed.
"What?"
"The database. It's for living people. What if our metahuman is supposedly dead?"
Before the duo could do anything, Maya's phone started ringing.
Incoming call: Cisco Ramon.
Maya answered, "What is it?"
"It's Barry, he's… he's… just get here! Now!" Cisco exclaimed.
Maya leapt into action, grabbing her shoulder bag and Caitlin's jacket and heading for the door, "Barry's in trouble."
At S.T.A.R. Labs…
"Oh my god! Barry!" Maya yelled as she rushed into the main lab, Caitlin on her heels.
"Cut me open," Barry gasped, looking at Caitlin, "poison gas in me."
Wells looked up, "He brought us a sample."
Maya forced herself to meet his eyes without sneering, "What do we do?"
"Caitlin, we need to do a pulmonary biopsy and extract an active portion of that gas," Wells ordered.
"I can't give you any anaesthetic," Caitlin told him, "your metabolism will burn right through it."
"I heal quickly," Barry rasped, "remember."
"I think she's talking about the pain…" Maya muttered, getting an alarmed look from Barry.
"Do it," Wells demanded, looking from Barry to Caitlin.
"Cisco, give me the syringe," Caitlin told him, "like Maya said, this is going to hurt a lot."
Maya grabbed Barry's hand as Cisco handed Caitlin the needle, Barry looked up at her, surprise flashing over his features at her decision.
Maya squeezed it reassuringly, "Look at me, trust me when I say watching it makes it worse."
Barry nodded, keeping his eyes trained on the blonde in front of him as Caitlin took the needle.
"It's a small needle, you're probably not going to feel it," Cisco tried, looking at the needle.
"Oh, you're going to feel it," Caitlin cut in, jabbing the needle down into Barry's chest.
Then he blacked out.
Barry woke up minutes later, taking notice of the monitor's attached to him and Maya standing next to him with a worried expression.
Cisco grinned, "The Streak lives."
"You would be dead if your lung cells didn't regenerate so quickly," Caitlin deadpanned, looking at Barry.
Maya pulled him into a gentle but crushing hug, "I thought you were dead. Next time, listen to me and Caitlin, will you?"
"Ugh, my chest feels like that one time I had a cigarette," Barry groaned as he sat up, he noticed the look heading his way, "yeah, teen me lived for danger."
"This isn't funny," Caitlin cut in, "you could have-."
"I didn't," Barry butted in.
"Now that we have a sample we'll get to work analysing it, fogure the makeup of the poison," Harrison interrupted, "maybe get a clue to his human identity."
"Find out a way to stop him from turning into mist," Cisco agreed before grinning, "'The Mist', okay, that's his name, end of discussion."
Maya helped Barry sit up on the edge of the bed and gave Cisco a 'are you serious?' look.
"I have to get to the station," Barry mumbled and Maya placed a cold hand on his chest.
"No way, you have to rest," Maya shook her head, trying not to turn red at her action. Barry wasn't so fortunate.
"I have to talk to Joe," Barry insisted, his cheeks red as he stood. Maya rolled her eyes, but didn't let him go without her half carrying him with his arm over her shoulder.
The CCPD Precinct…
Barry strutted into his lab with Maya on his tail, "Joe, I had him."
Joe looked up from the file at the incoming duo.
"The metahuman, we were wrong," Barry continued, "he's not controlling airborne toxins, he can literally transform himself into poison gas."
"That's new," was all Joe managed as he stood.
"Tell me about it," Maya sighed as she dropped onto a metal stool.
"The victim," Joe continued, holding out the file, "was a judge, we're going through some of her old cases to see if there's a connection."
"It's too late," Barry shook his head, "I should've been faster."
Maya looked over at him, "I swear to God, Barry Allen, you will be the death of me."
Joe looked from Maya to Barry, "Focus on the job, don't think about that now."
"You don't want to know what I'm thinking about," Barry shook his head.
Barry walked over to the box of evidence, "My dad has spent fourteen years in a six by eight foot cell for a crime he didn't commit. I couldn't save my mom but I can save him."
"Didn't I promise you we would get your father out of prison, together?" Joe reminded him.
"I don't need your help, Joe," Barry turned to face Joe, "I could be in and out of there with him before anyone sees me."
"Okay," Joe humoured him, "you break him out of there. Then what? He's on the run, for the rest of his life, something tells me he's not as fast as you are."
"You don't know what it's like there," Barry shook his head.
"You don't think I understand what you're feeling?" Joe looked at Barry, "I have been a cop for almost as long as you've been alive. So you should know putting on that suit does not make everybody safe, for every person you save there's gonna be one you can't, and the hardest thing you're going to have to face? Is not some monster out there with powers it's gonna be that feeling of uselessness when you can't do anything."
Barry looked down and Joe glanced at the floor before continuing, "Or the guilt that weighs on you when you make a mistake"
Joe got up and placed a hand in Barry's shoulder, who had sat in a chair, "Some things, Barry, you can't fight. Some things, you just have to live with."
He handed Barry the file and nodded to Maya, ruffling her long blonde hair before walking out of the room.
Barry rubbed his face, "How can I win against something I can't fight? I can't hurt anyone."
Maya stood up, "But that's what makes you different from all the metahumans we've faced so far. You're not touched by darkness, Barry, you don't have the dark inside you like those criminals have, like I have, you can win because you are good."
Barry smiled, "Thank you."
At S.T.A.R. Labs...
Barry had dragged Maya back to S.T.A.R. Labs for some reason, what reason she was still unsure, and they were watching as Caitlin sat alone.
Barry walked into the room and Maya skulked off to find Cisco, but of course, she ended up following Wells down the same corridor.
It had been a few minutes before they reached the spot, Maya remained invisible as Wells placed his hand on the same spot and the wall slid open.
Maya wasn't stupid, she wasn't going to follow him in and risk getting caught, but she did watch from in front of the door as Wells rolled before she concentrated on making the wall invisible by pressing her hand to it.
The wall shimmered before becoming see through a Maya's eyes narrowed as she saw the other side. Wells was standing, walking, in the room with his glasses lying in his wheelchair and said wheelchair a bit behind him.
Maya saw him speak, not hearing the words as the wall was only see through, and stared intently at the hologram which came up on the screen.
And the title caught her attention.
Flash Vanishes Missing In Crisis
The date clearly read 2024, so how did Wells have it and more worriedly why but the she saw a subtitle.
Mysterious Shield Surrounds Central City
For some reason, Maya felt as if she knew what the shield was and why it was there, but she forgot the thought and feeling quickly as Cisco's voice boomed through the speakers.
"Maya, come quick, there's something you really need to see."
Maya sighed but quickly pulled away from the wall, it turned visible along with Maya and the blonde jogged down the hall, stashing what she'd just seen for debating over later.
"Hey," Cisco grinned as Maya walked in, shortly followed by Barry and Caitlin. Barry gave Maya a questioning look asking why she wasn't already with Cisco but she brushed it off with a shrug.
"Check this out," Cisco beckoned them over, the screen behind him displaying a colourful DNA model.
The trio stalked over to Cisco who explained, "It's a 3D molecular model of the gas we retrieved from your lungs."
Harrison Wells rolled into the room and Maya's eyes narrowed and flickered everywhere but at him.
"We have identified the toxins," Wells clarified, clicking something on his not needed wheelchair's screen and flicking it onto the larger screen.
Barry frowned, "Hydrogen Cyanide"
Harrison nodded, picking up his flask, "What's interesting is what's mixed in with the Cyanide."
Maya stood straighter and crossed her arms, "A sedative."
"Of course," Barry breathed as placed his palm on his forehead, "the night of the explosion see if anyone was executed."
Maya instantly turned to Caitlin, "My theory, the one about the databases, it makes sense. His DNA must've been bonded with whatever gas killed him, we couldn't find him because he's supposed to be dead."
Caitlin nodded as she walked to the computer with Maya behind her.
"Why?" Wells inquired.
"That sedative is given to criminals on death role before they go to the gas chamber and breath in Hydrogen Cyanide," Barry explained.
"That's right..."
"There was someone executed," Caitlin agreed, looking up from the screen.
"Kyle Nimbus," Maya read out, glancing from the screen to the men, a picture came up on the television screen.
"That's him," Barry identified.
"He was a hit man for the Darbidian crime family," Caitlin clarified.
Maya read out the article, "They turned on him and testified, Judge Theresa Howard was the judge for his trial."
Caitlin's eyes narrowed at the next bit, "Says she sentenced him to death."
"Seems he was affected by the explosion while he was being gassed," Wells highlighted.
Barry's brow furrowed, and Cisco continued, "Records indicate the execution was completed."
"Maya was right," Barry nodded, turning to the girls, "there wasn't a match because the database only has records of the living."
"Right," Harrison nodded.
"He said there was one more person on his list," Barry's eyes widened, "check the arrest record- who caught him? That could be his next attack."
Maya froze alongside Caitlin as they read the screen, they both shared a look before Maya turned to him, "Barry, it was the lead Detective."
Then it was Barry's turn to share an alarmed look with the girls.
Barry hung up the phone with a scared expression and Maya hung back and clicked away at the keyboard.
She heard Caitlin talk to Barry and saw her give him an antidote out of the corner of her eye before he was a red blue and crackling yellow lightning out of the door.
Maya turned to Caitlin as Cisco talked to Harrison.
"Do you have another antidote? I have to go after Barry and I might need it," Maya pleaded, Caitlin nodded and handed Maya a dart-like tech.
"Be safe," Caitlin smiled weakly as Maya rushed out of the room, grabbing her shoulder bag from the chair where she'd left it when she and Barry had first arrived.
Outside Iron Heights...
Maya arrived at Iron Heights, after assuring Cisco breaking in would be no issue for her, to see Barry kneeling in front of Joe.
"Oh God," Maya cried, thankful for the modulator, the Streak looked up at her.
"What do I do?" the Streak asked, Maya almost rolled her eyes.
"You have an antidote, do you not?" Maya stated, her voice blurred, Barry held it out and Maya took it, "You go after Nimbus; I've got him."
The Streak looked down at Joe doubtfully before racing off, Maya noticed his face was blurred the whole time. That's when she saw Henry Allen.
Maya dropped to her knees next to Joe and quickly injected the antidote into his neck, she let out a breath she didn't realise she'd been holding when the Detective's body stopped convulsing.
"Detective, are you alright?" Maya inquired, Joe stared up and her with an alarmed expression.
"Yeah, help him," Joe didn't say a name, but Maya knew he meant Barry. But the look on his face, the one of recognition, that made her smile.
When she stood, she nodded too Henry, "You'll be out soon, Mr Allen."
Then she ran through the wall.
'Maya, Barry hasn't got an antidote, if he gets choked again he's stands no chance. You have to get to him,' Cisco's voice came through her private com, Caitlin was speaking to Barry.
'Got it, I'm almost there, can you get me in on the other convo? It'll make things easier if I can hear you all,' Maya requested, she didn't get a reply but Caitlin's voice filled her ear
'-not breathe him in,' Caitlin instructed.
Maya skidded to a stop behind Barry and in front of a large column of green gas. The Streak glanced back at Maya a moment before the green mist jabbed.
A red flash crossed Maya's vision before she and the Streak were darting back and forth away from Nimbus.
'I'm not sure how that helps me guys,' Barry grimaced as he placed Maya down.
Ghost readjusted her mask and pulled out her antidote, thankful it was still there. Barry then ran through the reformer Nimbus, coming out the other side as the man turned into green mist.
'You can't fight him, Barry,' Caitlin said, her voice coming through the coms, 'just keep him coming at you, that should zap his strength.'
Maya inwardly rolled her eyes, they knew nothing about fighting, but she focused on the fact that Barry and her were on opposite sides of Nimbus- how was she to inject him if he got hit now?
'Gas is the least stable form of matter,' Wells suddenly exclaimed, his voice grew louder, 'that metahuman will not be able to stay in his mist form for long, his particles will need to reform.'
Maya took a deep breath before speaking, 'Barry, you need to keep him in his mist form for as long as you can, he will tire and then get him.'
'Got it,' Barry nodded.
Harrison Wells looked around for signs of the blonde, where was she? Then it hit him, it had been obvious.
Maya looked through the green for any signs of red but suddenly the mist was surging forwards and Barry was gone. Maya cursed and took off down the road after the green mist and the red blur.
She caught up as Nimbus stumbled back into his human form, Maya then yanked out her Bō and snapped her arm down, causing the metal pole to elongate.
Just as Nimbus was about to shift again, Maya swung her Bō into his head and the metahuman dropped to the floor unconscious. Maya grinned to herself but it soon faded when she saw the gasping Barry on the floor.
"Shit," Maya cursed as she dropped to the floor next to him, "hang in there, Speedy."
Maya pulled out her antidote and as quickly, and safely of course, injected it into Barry's neck. The Streak soon stopped writhing and lay still, his eyes started fluttering.
"C'mon, stay awake, Speedy," Maya muttered as she heaved the red clad man to his feet, "Stay with me, Barry."
Barry seemed to freeze in her arms, "You know my name?"
"Yes, I do," Maya smirked as she started dragging him towards her bike.
"How? It's... a... secret," Barry mumbled, then he passed out.
"Ugh!" Maya exclaimed, shocked by the sudden weight, "Geez, thanks a ton, baby face."
At S.T.A.R. Labs...
Maya carried Barry into the main lab of S.T.A.R. Laboratories and watched as the trio stopped dead.
"Well that's something you don't see everyday," Cisco stated as he pulled the lollipop out of his mouth.
"Thanks for the help, Cisco," Maya rolled her eyes as she dropped Barry onto the metal table Caitlin had cleared.
As she moved back, Cisco and Caitlin swarmed over him, making sure he was okay. Maya turned to Dr Wells.
"Dr Wells, there's something I need to-," Maya was cut off.
"I already know, Maya, you can take off the mask," Dr Wells smiled slightly, "your secret's safe with me."
For some reason, Maya doubted that whole sentence.
But Maya nodded and headed for the door to change back into her normal clothes. When Barry woke, they had a non-biological dad to visit.
Central City Hospital...
Joe watched with a smile as Maya and Barry shifted in the seat and Maya nestled into Barry's neck and Barry rested his head on Maya's blonde hair.
Maya was the first to wake, sensing eyes watching her and her vibrant green ones shot open, glancing around herself but not moving.
"That's probably the first time I have ever seen you at peace in the five years I've known you," Joe smiled as Maya breathe-chuckled, "your face actually seemed relaxed and not constantly looking around."
"I'm surprised I fell asleep, I'm usually more picky," Maya gestured to Barry's lap of which she was sitting on, "his lap isn't the comfiest."
"He's tired from his fight," Joe then looked sternly at Maya, "and you must've been too."
Maya sighed at the man in the hospital bed, "How did you know?"
"When you injected me, I recognised your face, you have specific features, I'd know them anywhere," Joe chuckled, shaking his head.
Maya smiled lightly before her brow creased, "We can't tell Barry."
"I know."
Maya shifted slightly causing Barry to grunt, Maya stifled a laugh, "You should wear blue more often Joe, it suits you."
Joe shook his head at the blonde's reference to his blue scruffs just as Barry suddenly shook his head and woke up.
"What?" Barry mumbled before noticed Maya, "oh, hey."
"Wow, thanks," Maya snorted as she, as painfully to Barry as she could, clambered off his lap.
"It's been a while since I've watched you both sleep," Joe said to Barry.
"Yeah, well rescuing you is exhausting," Barry yawned as he stretched.
"I'll say, that Ghost chick carried you in out cold," Maya piped up, walking over and hugging Joe lightly, "It's good to know you're okay, Joe,"
"You're kidding, right?" Barry groaned before running his eyes, "And she knew my name."
Joe sent Maya a look before turning back to Barry, opening his mouth to say something. Before Joe could speak, Iris and Eddie burst through the door.
"Dad," Iris breathed as she gave Joe a hug.
"Hey, baby," Joe smiled at Iris and Maya and Barry moved back.
"Remind me never to fall asleep on you again," Maya whispered to Barry, "my butt's numb."
Barry looked at Maya, "Thanks."
Maya opened her mouth to retort when she noticed Eddie and Iris arrived together.
"Partner..." Joe nodded slowly, "did you two arrive together?"
Eddie and Iris looked at each other and Maya grinned, "Ohh, you two are dead."
Iris, Eddie and Joe looked at Maya and Barry closed his eyes before grabbing Maya's hand a starting to drag her towards the door.
"We'll let you guys talk," Barry smiled.
"What? Why does this always happen? I enjoy teasing people! Seriously!" Maya complained as Barry pulled her out of the door.
At Iron Heights...
After being forced out of the hospital room, Maya had taken Barry to visit his dad at Iron Heights. She was a bit iffy about visiting as she still remembered the other night clearly, but once there Maya decided to go in with Barry.
Maya stood by the security guard leaning on the wall whilst Barry talked through the payphone-style receiver to his dad.
"Who's your friend?" Henry suddenly asked, Barry seemed emotional after the story of him running to his mum.
Barry turned to look at Maya, who waved slightly, "That's Maya Robinson, she's a friend, well actually I've known her five years... she used to wait outside."
"Call her over," Henry smiled as he waved back to the blonde.
Barry looked at Maya and signalled with his head, she pushed off the wall and walked over, swapping places with Barry.
"Hi," Maya smiled, "I'm Maya."
"Henry Allen," Henry smiled.
"I've heard a lot about you, it's an pleasure to meet you," Maya beamed.
"I've heard this and that about you, and it's nice to put a face to the name," Henry nodded before he furrowed his brow.
"What's wrong?" Maya inquired.
"You remind me of someone," Henry admitted, "she was famous a decade or so ago, daughter of the millionaire Peter Black."
Maya tensed, "I thought she died in a crash."
"Missing. I remember reading it on the paper."
Maya's heart sped slightly but she quickly calmed it and stood, "It was nice meeting you, Henry."
She strode past Barry and towards the door, "I'll wait outside for you."
Henry Allen knew. Or at least suspected it, Maya could tell.
That, was an extremely long chapter... and OMFG "Out of Time" was FRICKIN AMAZING! I can't wait for Ep16! Moving on: guess what? The next episode is 4! That means Felicity! :D thanks for the follows and favs- how about a review? ;P
