Part 18

"Is it ready?" growled Hunter

"Yes. But you should know that it will kill you if you take too much."

Hunter just glared at her grabbed her and retied her to the poll. He grabbed the injections and headed into the office.

"What is that you made?" asked Iris

"A speed drug Caitlin is working on. Just in case the Flash needs a boost. But she hasn't cracked it yet. It will give that bastard super speed. But it will also destroy his cells." Said Carla

"Let him over dose on it. The world will be better without that monster."

"I agree. In fact I may have made those doses a little stronger then they should be."

"Well hopefully the Flash and Frost will find us."

"They are coming. Caitlin told me in code. The Green Arrow and Black Canary, are as is Supergirl."

"Good. You do know that Caitlin is still scared of this monster. She tries to hide it. But everyone knows."

"I don't blame her. Iris, you know my relationship with my daughter is not the best. I love her but I in my fear of losing her after my husband died pushed her away. If it hadn't been for the Allens and your father, Caitlin may have turned out to be a much different person. She may have become cold and afraid to let anyone in. It took what happened to my daughter for me to realize that I had nearly lost her. Not physically but emotionally. I am grateful that she has given me a chance to be a better grandmother then I ever was a mother to her."

"Caitlin, has a kind heart. She is one of my closest friends."

"I know. Thank you for being there for her when I wasn't."

"Dr. Tannhouser, you don't need to thank me. I never would have gotten through science or math without Caitlin."

Caitlin crouched down next to Barry in the shadows. Oliver and Laurel were on the other side of the building. Kara and Alex were on the roof. Kara was using her heat vision to start cutting through the led lined roof. Once they got word that Kara was about to cut through the other four made their move breaking down the doors.

Hunter seeing them coming injected the speed drug into himself. Caitlin and Barry both saw the lighting flash in his eyes. He came at them. Barry easily moved out of the way as Caitlin shot an ice blast at him. Alex had run to untie the hostages.

"Cover your ears." Alex told them.

"Now Black Canary!" yelled Oliver

Laurel nodded and let out a sonic cry. It knocked Hunter down. He growled grabbed an ice dagger that Caitlin shot at him. He then ran over and stabbed Iris in the back with it. She cried out in pain. Kara flew at Hunter punching him.

"Turn yourself in Zolomon. You aren't getting away." Said Oliver

"Go back to Star City Robin Hood, and take that bitch siren with you." Growled Hunter

Oliver didn't reply. He just shoot two arrows at Hunter. He grabbed them from the air before they hit. Oliver then hit a button on his bow and they exploded in Hunter's face. He was knocked down. Oliver fired another arrow which Hunter grabbed and used to stab Laurel in the leg.

"Flash! Iris needs medical attention." Said Carla

"Supergirl, Flash get Iris and Black Canary back to base. Take Dr. Tannhouser too." Said Oliver

"Go Flash I will be fine." Said Caitlin

"Be careful Frost." Said Flash

"Always am."

Barry grabbed Laurel and Carla, Kara picked up Iris and they took off to the base. Caitlin formed a new ice dagger and glared at Hunter with glowing eyes.

"Orchid, Green Arrow watch out!" yelled Caitlin

The two ducked and jumped out of the way as Hunter threw a lightning bolt at each of them. Caitlin shot an ice blast at him knocking him to the ground. Then with speed no one knew she had she jumped on him a razor sharp dagger in her hand.

"Frost, don't let him make you into something your not." Said Oliver

"He is a monster Green Arrow. He deserves to die. He kill his own brother." Said Caitlin

"Frost if you kill him, you will be no better than him. You will be embracing a kind of darkness that you will never be able to escape. Think of all those little girls that see you as their hero." Said Oliver

Caitlin knew he was right. She took her dagger and instead of stabbing him in the heart she stabbed him in his right leg. Then formed a second and stabbed him in the left. As she got up Hunter grabbed her pulling back down and rolled them over so he was pinning to the ground. He placed a hand around her neck and ripped her mask off. Hunter grinned evilly as her hair and eyes returned to normal.

"Well, well, well. Hello Caitlin. So nice to see you again." Said Hunter

"You planning on killing me? Like you did David?" asked Caitlin

"He deserved to die. He betrayed me!"

"No he didn't he was a good person. He did what he felt was right."

"Family should always come first."

Hunter had just started to choke the life out of Caitlin when two arrows hit him in the back in quick succession. A third hit seconds later right in the back of the head. Hunter fell on top of Caitlin dead. Oliver and Alex quickly pulled Hunter's body off of Caitlin. Then Alex helped Caitlin to her feet and picked up her mask.

"Guys, Dr. Tannhouser could use some help." Came Cisco's voice over coms

"Seed Barry to get his wife and tell the police to come clean up here. Zolomon is dead. I will bring Alex back with me." Said Oliver

"Got it."

Seconds later there was a flash of orange-yellow lightning and Caitlin was gone. Oliver and Alex headed out and climbed on his motorcycle.

"Oliver, thanks for talking her out of killing him herself." Said Alex

"Alex, I would never let Caitlin fall into that darkness."

Oliver started the bike and took off for the base.
