"So, did you guys get it?" Oliver asked.
"Yep, Clinton told us everything we need to know." John confirmed.
"Good. Caitlin, Sara, please tell me you guys have finished a cure for the Mirakuru?" Oliver asked.
"We might." Caitlin said as she and Sara produced a blue vial.
"This looks familiar." Oliver said as he took the vial.
"We have the compound on file, we're just not sure if it works yet? We haven't tested it yet." Sara said.
"So test it now." Roy said as he stepped forward.
"Roy." Thea said.
"Thea, I'm the only person here that can be a viable test subject for the Mirakuru cure. Please, let me do this." Roy said and Thea nodded reluctantly.
"You sure you want to do this?" Oliver asked as he loaded the cure into a syringe.
"Never been more. I want this stuff out of me while I can still keep it under control. I feel myself losing more and more of it everyday." Roy said and Oliver nodded as he injected the cure into Roy.
"How do you feel?" Oliver asked Roy after a few moments.
"Not quite sure yet." Roy said.
"If you let us take a blood sample from you now, we can compare it to one we took while you had the Mirakuru in you so we compare can compare them." Sara said and Roy nodded as he let them take a sample of his blood.
"What about Firestorm? Considering what it sounds like Slade's up to, we could use all the help we can get." Oliver asked.
"We're working on something for that, but we need more time." Cisco said.
"Time is probably the one thing we do not have right now." Oliver said.
Joe was back at SCPD, looking further into the Blood investigation when Lance and another officer entered the room with a criminal.
"Isn't that one of the Iron Heights escapees?" Joe asked and Lance nodded.
"Dumbass here tried to rob a convenience store but gave up as soon as I pulled in." Lance said happily. "Mind if I just stick him here for a minute?" he asked.
Joe shook his head. "No, go ahead." He said. The man was pushed into a seat, and he looked around the squad room surreptitiously.
"Well?" Oliver asked Caitlin and Sara.
Sara looked at him with a grin and said "The tests we ran for mirakuru came back negative, there isn't a drop of that stuff in Roy's system. The cure worked. We're working on mass producing it now."
"That is some much needed good news. In the meantime, we'll see if we can buy you some time." Oliver said.
"How?" Roy asked, relieved that he no longer had an unstable drug in his system.
"We know where the army Blood's amassed is gathering right. Well, let's go put an end to this once and for all." Oliver said.
"We can't take out that army, even with our powers." Barry said.
"I know, but we can slow them down. Now, let's suit up" Oliver said as they all turned to look at the mannequins Cisco had setup, each one displaying a different suit. Thunderstorm, Spartan, Flash, Green Arrow, Tsunami and Black Canary.
"Let's end this." Green Arrow said after they were all suited up, but before they could move to leave, there was a flash of red lightning that knocked them all to the ground.
"Wells." Flash growled.
"Seems my games are over." Reverse Flash said.
"Why don't you at least have the guts to show us who you really are under that mask and that face." Green Arrow said as he quickly got up.
"Why not? I know your names, only fair you know mine." Reverse Flash said as he pulled of his mask to reveal, not the face of Harrison Wells, but a different face of man with blonde-brown hair.
"My name is Eobard Thawne. I believe you know my ancestor Eddie Thawne." Eobard said.
"You've been keeping surveillance on us, haven't you. That's how you knew to show up here tonight." Green Arrow growled.
"Very clever Mr. Queen. Nice to see you live up to your reputation." Thawne said.
"Enough. You can't stop all 6 of us at once alone Eobard." Flash said.
"Who says I'm alone?" Thawne said as the door was pushed down and Green Arrow saw Deathstroke enter the Cortex.
"Hey kid. At least this time when we meet, we meet as our true selves." Deathstroke said as Green Arrow turned to face him.
"This is between you and me. No one else." Green Arrow said.
"No one else. You brought everyone in here into this when you brought them into your crusade. And yes you may have spared your mother from my wrath, but don't worry, once I'm done here, I will hunt her down and I will bring her back here, just so that I can kill her in front of you." Deathstroke said.
"Like hell you will." Green Arrow snarled as he fired at Deathstroke before engaging him as Flash moved to attack Reverse Flash.
"Not fast enough Barry." Thawne said as he pulled down his mask and sped away, with Flash following them.
"They're in the Pipeline." Cisco said.
"Lock it down and then get the hell out of here." Black Canary said as more goons wearing masks similar to Slade's arrived and she and the others began to engage them.
"What about the cure?" Caitlin asked.
"Barry can get it out of here, but we cannot lose you guys. Leave this to the people with training and powers." Thunderstorm said as she fired lightning out of her fist.
Back at the SCPD. "Hey." The escapee said, getting Lance's and Joe's attention. "You got the time?" he asked.
Automatically Lance glanced at his watch. "It's, uh, 9:00." He said.
"Thanks." The man said with a grin, then easily broke his handcuffs and jumped up, grabbing Kelton by the throat with one hand and snapping his neck.
Lance drew his gun, but the man quickly knocked it away. Lance punched the man, but all that did was seemingly piss him off. He advanced on the cop, grabbing him by the throat and pushing him back against the wall. Another cop grabbed him, but an elbow sent him flying, and the man grabbed a mask from under his coat and put it on. He threw Quentin across the room and then advance don the other cops who were beginning to respond.
