Part 14
Alura watched as her daughter's honorary niece and nephew slept. She smiled they were beautiful children. Dani looked just like her mother with auburn hair and soft brown eyes. She saw also very smart for a nearly five year old. Even by Kryptonian standers she would be considered in the higher end of intelligence. Charlie the two year old boy. Had his father's green eyes and his soft brown hair. She could just see him being a heartbreaker as a young man.
"Rao please keep my daughter and her friends safe. Help me keep these little ones safe until they can return home to their parents arms."
Dani dropped her teddy bear on the floor. Alura walked over picked it up looked at it closely before tucking it back in the little girl's arms. The bear was dressed to look like the hero Frost. While Alura had been informed that the young girl's mother was Frost. Dani had no idea that her mom was one of her favorite heroes. Or that her daddy was her other favorite hero. She placed a gentle kiss on the young girl's head before heading out of the room.

Kara and Alex helped Jacquie lay down for the night. Cisco was in one of the training rooms trying to see if he could do some of the things he had gotten in his vibes as they were calling them. He had seen himself blasting with his hands and opening portals. He had also seen himself wearing some kind of goggles. He had started to work on them to see if they could help him focus his powers. Caitlin paced in the cortex with Barry watching. He knew his wife. He knew that she was scared, and she was also angry. She was angry that they had to let that monster get away. But Dr. McGee and her employees were innocents that got pulled into their nightmare. Barry got up and pulled Caitlin into his arms.
"We will find your mom and David. You know Oliver and Laurel will find out what we need to know." Said Barry
"I know."
Barry's phone rang and he answered it after seeing it was Joe.
"What is it Joe?" asked Barry
"The crew that helped Zolomon with the robbery are dead. All shoot dead." Said Joe
"He didn't want to leave any loose ends."
"Bare, you do realize that we might not find Carla alive."
"Zolomon, most likely has his brother David Turner as well."
"What about David's handicapped sister?"
"She is here with us. Zolomon isn't getting in here."
"I know. I take it Alex is our new plant controller?"
"Uh yeah. She is going by Orchid."
"Good to know. Be careful all of you."
"We will be."
Barry hung up and turned to Caitlin.
"The men Hunter had help him are dead. Hunter shoot all of them." Said Barry
"That doesn't surprise me. Barry my mom is still alive. She has to make the velocity drug for him. My mom is the only one that understands my shorthand. Not even Alex or David fully understand it."
"I know that. You do that so that if they are stolen no one can make since of it."
"My mom knows it because it is a combination of one she uses and one my dad use to use."
"I always knew you were the smartest person I knew."
"Well you are pretty smart too. You fell in love with me."
Barry leaned down and kissed her softly. If at all possible he was going to do whatever needs to be done to keep her safe. Even break his one rule. He would kill Hunter Zolomon to keep his wife safe. Not that she wasn't fully capable of protecting herself. Because she was. Hell she could be very deadly if she truly wanted to be. Her ice powers required her to draw heat from around her, in fact they had learned that body heat was the best for her. But she had learned to control that craving within days of waking from the coma she had been in after the explosion.

Hunter walked into the warehouse bringing in equipment with him. He didn't bother looking at his two prisoners. Carla watched from where she was tied up. She knew that once Caitlin found out what Hunter was stealing that she would get the message that she left. No one knew what her late husband had called their family but Caitlin. She glanced over at David who had lost consciousness half hour ago.
"You might want to check on David. He hasn't moved or made a sound in at least half an hour." Said Carla
"Do you really think I care if that traitor dies? You are only alive because your bitch of a daughter has her own code for the drug."
"What makes you think that I will actually make it?"
"You don't have a choice. Not unless you want the death of little kids on your conscious. I am going to destroy the Flash and his friends. I will make Frost wish she never was born."
Carla watched as Hunter walked over kicked David who didn't make a sound. He then placed his fingers on his neck. Then walked off. He finished bringing in the equipment placing it in the corner. He then pulled out a knife cutting David free. He picked him up and carried him out. When he returned he glanced at Carla.
"I will dump the body in the morning. Then you will start on my drug."
"Why did you kill that boy?"
"He betrayed me. He chose to protect your lying bitch of a daughter over his own blood. That is the worst kind of betrayal. He deserved to die."
"That is where you are wrong. That young man did what he felt was right. You beat and raped my daughter!"
Hunter walked over to Carla and slapped her hard. He then walked off. Carla closed her eyes and said a silent prayer that her daughter and her friends will stop this monster before anyone else dies.
