Rachel POV- Rachel lost track of all the hugs she gave or got as the party went on. She saw Mick have a brief talk with Cisco, who's beer he took, then a minor tiff with Caitlin. Sara was currently at the bar drinking with Alex, Kara's sister.
"Can I have everybody's attention for a second? Grab a drink. All right so the old man has a few words to say. What can I possibly say about Barry and Iris that everyone in this room doesn't already know? How they're special and kind and brave. But we all know that so I'm gonna talk to you all about somebody you might not know. Me" Joe spoke up for his toast.
"For the longest time I have been happy just to be Dad to these two. And then Wally comes along and… Then watching them face what they have in the last few years with grace and trust and love so much love. You see two people who love like that and you want it too" Joe reached for Cecile his girlfriend.
"Oh I'm in this speech" she smiled taking his hand.
"Yes you are. So Barry, Iris thank you for showing me how to love again. For showing me that love is the most important thing we have. I love you guys. To Barry and Iris" Joe finished, holding back his tears.
"To Barry and Iris" everyone cheered.
Everyone returned to their conversations and food after Joe's speech. Rachel noticed both Sara and Alex had disappeared from the party but she didn't blame them. Sara didn't do weddings and according to Kara Alex just called off her own engagement.
Rachel was surprised Kara hadn't ducked out too after hearing about her relationship issues. Also shocking was that Mick was still at the party chatting, eating and clearly drinking.
"Oliver I don't wanna marry you!" Felicity's outburst stopped all conversations.
Embarrassed Felicity silently left the party leaving behind a clearly hurt Oliver. After that the party mostly broke up with people heading home. Oliver stayed at Barry's place on the coach. Kara and Felicity were at Joe's house. Sara was MIA on the Waverider where Rachel stayed. Martin and Jax got Mick to Martin's house as it was closer and he was very drunk.
The next morning Rachel put her hair in an updo and slipped into her dark navy-ish blue dress with a thin white belt and the same black heels. She had to laugh a little that her color scheme seemed to line up with Leonard's old outfit back when he was enemies with the Flash. She met up with Mick outside the church.
"You clean up good" Rachel commented.
"Monkey suit" Mick mumbled.
"Let's go" Rachel laughed.
"Here, found this last night. He'd want you to have it. Oh and uh you look nice too…" Mick said uncomfortably as he held out a diamond necklace.
"Thank you. Wait, stolen or bought?" Rachel asked putting the necklace on over the one with Leonard's ring on it.
"Uh…I don't know?" Mick lied walking into the church before she could question him more.
"Welcome to the West/Allen wedding can I show you to your seat? Are you here for the bride or groom?" the usher asked.
"Well considering I've tried to kill the groom a couple of times it's probably best I sit on the bride's side" Mick said straight faced.
"Uh well that would be the left side."
"Great."
"I'll take the right side then" Rachel smiled to ease the usher as she walked past.
With everyone seated and in place Kara got up on the stage and sang 'Running Home to you' as Iris began her walk down the aisle. Rachel looked from Iris, who looked stunning, to Barry who had the biggest grin on his face and happy tears in his eyes and she felt so glad to be a part of this.
"Everyone please be seated. Welcome to you all. I'm honored to be presiding over the wedding of Barry Allen and Iris West. Although I don't know them well I know that this is a good match. How do I know that? Well…because of you because of all of you. Looking out at their friends and their family and seeing the joy on all your faces seeing how happy you are for them tells me everything I need to know" the priest started.
"It tells me that these two people deserve to be together. They deserve to be happy and fulfilled. And they deserve a long life together. And now to the standard housekeeping. Does anyone have just cause why these two should not be married? Speak now or forever hold your peace" the priest finished.
Suddenly a blast of light hit the priest and he disappeared in a cloud of smoke and ash. Everyone turned to see the attacker. A small army of masked men filed into the church. Flying above them was a woman also wearing a face mask.
"Peace is overrated" the woman said.
When the bullets started to fly Barry took off at super-speed and caught them all, then Martin and Jax became Firestorm.
"Get everybody out of here!" Kara yelled preparing for battle.
Wally began to speed people to safety while Rachel knelt next to Caitlin and Mick firing energy bolts at the Nazi's attacking.
"Mick! Nazi's!" Rachel growled out.
"I hate Nazi's" Mick replied pulling out his gun.
"I think it's time you introduced these guys to your mean roommate" Cisco told Caitlin.
"Where did she get this outfit?" Killer Frost answered.
Gone was Caitlin Snow. Now her hair was white, her eyes were so blue they almost were white as well and she was firing ice daggers from her hands.
"That's what I'm talking about" Mick grinned looking at Killer Frost.
Then he got up and began firing flames at the wave of Nazis and Rachel was taking their energy to turn around and use it on others. Also she was simply just punching or kicking the advancing Nazis and occasionally killing a few with a snapped neck or energy blast.
Kara took on the flying woman and burst through the church ceiling. Oliver somehow whipped a bow out of nowhere along with arrows.
"Really you brought a bow to a wedding?" Rachel asked as she knelt next to him.
"Are you complaining?" he asked.
"Good point. Show that guy who's the better archer" Rachel said nodding to the archer in the balcony.
"Cisco up top! I need a breach!" Oliver called out.
Cisco used his power to open a portal for Oliver that led up to the balcony. Mick was calmly torching Nazis while Alex and Sara fought against one of the leaders. Killer Frost made a huge sharp icicle attached to her arm and began slicing through the Nazis.
Rachel took a second to drain all the energy from one Nazi and gave herself an overcharge. Kara was thrown through the roof and made a huge spray of debris which hit Cisco and knocked him out. Two Nazis converged on him but Barry punched them out while Rachel knelt next to Cisco.
Suddenly a large sound wave sent everyone staggering back and shattered all the windows. Rachel turned to look and saw Kara pound into the Nazi woman. The other archer jumped from the balcony and picked the woman up as he ordered his men to fall back. In a blinding flash of light they were all gone.
"Best wedding ever!" Mick cheered.
"How's Cisco?" Barry asked.
"I healed the major cut on the back of his head so he's not in danger there but maybe a concussion? I think he'll be out for a while. He has no other injuries" Rachel answered.
"Thank you" Barry said.
"Really? Thanking me for helping my friend? Honestly Barry" Rachel laughed.
Jax and Sara took, at gun point, the one Nazi leader she and Alex had been able to beat to Barry's holding cells in STAR Labs. Cisco had a mild concussion and was asleep for now but he was going to be just fine. Everyone else made their way to STAR Labs as well to regroup and figure out what just happened.
"You wiped the minds of the guests at the wedding?" Oliver asked.
"Yep. Everyone's secret identity remains secret" Mick grinned holding the memory eraser from the Waverider.
"Any idea where they fled?" Barry asked.
"No. I flew over the entire city there's no trace of them" Kara answered.
"Well clearly they attacked because you all were there" Iris said.
"All the heroes in one place" Rachel agreed.
"Killers, heroes, then what?" Barry asked.
"If I know my history ethnic cleansing, world domination" Felicity said.
"Make American Aryan again" Jax added.
"Which it never was" Caitlin said.
"Hashtag 'melting pot'" Iris said.
"I hate Nazis" Mick reaffirmed.
"Their appearance seems quite a severe course of action in support of a cause that was defeated over 70 years ago" Martin said.
"Apparently they didn't know about the Yalta Conference" Barry commented.
"What's a Yalta?" Mick asked.
"That woman didn't seem surprised to see me" Kara mentioned.
"How did she even know you were on this Earth?" Alex asked.
"And how was she as strong as you?" Barry asked.
"That archer matched me shot for shot. You know I think it's time we got some answers" Oliver said.
"Yeah he ain't exactly talking" Jax said looking at the monitor showing their captive.
"So let's make him talk" Oliver replied looking at the screen as the captive looked back through the camera.
