Part 53

Caitlin looked up from her computer two days later when Cisco led in Oliver, Felicity, Diggle and Thea as well as Sara. She knew that Cisco had added all four of them to the authorized visitor list to STAR labs. Caitlin had been busy running simulations to see if her DNA might actually hold the key to healing paralysis. When the members of Team Arrow walked Caitlin stood up and noticed the shocked looks on Diggle and Thea's faces.

"You are pregnant." Said Diggle

"Hey guys. Yeah I am with triplets." Said Caitlin

"How is that even possible?" asked Thea

"The normal way I guess. I mean Savitar was a time remnant sure. But a time remnant is an exact copy of the speedster." Said Caitlin

"Except you left out that half his face looked more like extra crispy thin crust pizza." Said Cisco

"Did he rape you?" asked Oliver softly

"No. I made the choice to sleep with him so that he wouldn't think that I wasn't really with him. I did what I felt I had to, to stop him. To save Iris's life not that she is grateful. In fact she was planning on trying to kill me." Said Caitlin her eyes glowing with power.

Barry who had come in while Caitlin was talking noticed and went to her and wrapped his arms around her.

"It's ok sweetie. Iris was stopped before she hurt you. I am not going to let anyone hurt you or our babies." Said Barry

Sara and the members of Team Arrow watched as Caitlin seemed to melt into the speedster's arms her eyes returning to their normal warm brown in seconds. None of them having seen the change in the relationship of the two before. Sara had seen the start a couple months ago. But it had moved forward a lot in that time.

"So wait are you two together now?" asked Felicity

"Yeah and we are going to move in together. We bought a house the other day." Said Barry

"Small mansion." Coughed Cisco

"Wait did Cisco say mansion?" asked Diggle

"Barry it turns out is a billionaire." Said Cisco

"Thawne left me everything he made as Wells. Turns out with the sale of his lavish mansion and investments I inherited after taxes nearly nine billion dollars." Said Barry

"Nine billion dollars?" asked Diggle

"Uh yeah." Said Barry

"Next time we need to upgrade the bunker I am calling you for a loan Barry." Said Felicity

"Yeah well Caitlin has a connection to Wayne Enterprises. She it turns out is good friends with the vice president of the cyber division. That friend of hers is the one that gifted us with our new security system as well as the new computers in here. That friend also knows Batman." Said Cisco

"Wait Caitlin, you know Barbara Gordon?" asked Felicity

"She and I were college roommates. I was fifteen and she kind of became like my big sister." Said Caitlin

"Fifteen?" said Thea

"I skipped a few grades ok." Said Caitlin

"Only because you are a genius." Said Cisco

"Whatever." Said Caitlin

"So Sara do you have a way to prove that you didn't kill the evil professor and his wife?" asked Cisco

"Yes. It has already been sent to Detective West at CCPD." Said Sara

"Any idea on who might try and frame you?" asked Caitlin

"Well most of them are dead. But there is one that hates both Barry and me. Who might have found a way to avoid being erased from existence because he has done it before."

"Thawne." Said Barry

"Yeah. What do you know about the negative speed force?" asked Sara

"Not much. Only that he created it himself. So it doesn't follow the same rules as the regular speed force." Said Barry

"Could he hide out in it?" asked Oliver

"Sure. I mean Barry survived being in the speed force for a little over a month. Heck because of these babies I can enter the speed force for short amounts of time." Said Caitlin

"So if he created a bunch of time remnants one could have gone into this negative speed force and hid out while this black zombie speedster thing erased the prime?" asked Sara

"Yes. That had to happen before our final battle with Savitar. Only because Cait froze Black Flash into dust while she was pretending to work with Savitar." Said Barry

"After the trauma that Zoom put me through do you really blame me for doing that? I mean he kidnapped me took me to another earth killed my evil doppleganger in front of me. Oh and tried to force me to love him. But the truth is a different speedster had already won my heart even if he was to wrapped up in his now psycho ex." Said Caitlin

"What do you mean by psycho?" asked Felicity

"Iris was arrested by Joe for possession of stolen property and conspiracy to commit murder. But was found unfit to stand trial and is now locked away at Riverside psychiatric hospital. When I returned from my time in the speed force I broke up with Iris. I realized that she brings out the worst in me. That I become pretty selfish when I am with her. I am bringing to believe that Flashpoint might never have happened never have happened if maybe Cait had been the one to talk to me after we defeated Zoom. She always has known what to say to me. She brings out the best in me. She is one of the people that has made me the Flash." Said Barry

Caitlin leaned over a placed a kiss on his cheek.

"So how do we find Thawne?" asked Oliver

"We use the satellite to scan for negative tacyons." Said Cisco

Cisco sat down at his computer and began to type away.

"It may take some time he has to use his speed for us to get an alert. But it is all set up." Said Cisco

"Maybe while we wait we can see the house that Barry bought for the mama of his sort of kids?" said Thea

"I hope you are planning to have a state of the art security system put in." said Oliver

"You do know that I am far from defenseless Robin Hood. You may claim not to get cold. But I am sure I can make you very cold if I try." Said Caitlin

"I was thinking for when you and Barry aren't there to protect your children. You know when they are with a sitter or nanny." Said Oliver

"I know. I was just messing with you." Said Caitlin

"Just remind me to never make you mad. Even before your powers from what I understand you were scary." Said Oliver

"Just never shoot any of my kids with arrows and you won't get stabbed in the leg with an ice dagger. Barry can tell you how much that hurts."

Oliver just nodded after seeing the look on Barry's face.
