Note 1: Sigma is in charge of updating while I'm away on vacation, so that is why this chapter is coming earlier than usual. Do enjoy!
Note 2: Well, it's been 5 years since Karry Universe started and while I know you're all looking forward to our Crisis Event, but I couldn't let the Anniversary go without celebrating. The last 4 years I did ways to revisit the past of Karry Universe – the documentary about Kara and Barry, Barry living his perfect world, Krypto's (and Powie's) point of view of the story, and last year actually traveling back to the time periods. This year I am going very different. You'll see.
Amelia's Past Boyfriends
Winn came up to his wife, who was on the couch looking at her iPad.
"What are you doing?" Winn asked, causing Amelia to jump as she had been engrossed in her game. "Didn't mean to startle you!" Winn laughed. "But you have been obsessed with your iPad for a while. Are you dating someone else?" He gave a small laugh at his own joke.
"Only fictional," Amelia said as Winn stopped laughing at the answer.
"What?" Winn asked.
"Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery," Amelia said, showing her iPad to Winn and the game, it was following the fictional adventures of characters before Harry Potter attended the school. "Festival dating event; too bad the guys in this game suck and we can't date the Weasleys. I have to choose between Penny or Chiara… although Barnaby's not bad."
"But you're not into women," Winn pointed out.
"So? It's a fake character," Amelia shrugged. "Trust me, if I could date Bill or Charlie, those two girls would be dumped fast." Amelia chuckled as she put the iPad down and stood up to get a drink.
"Since when are you into red heads?" Winn asked as he looked at the iPad again. "Why does your character have red hair?"
"I think I would look good as a red head," Amelia called back as she took out juice from the refrigerator and found a glass. "What's up with you today?"
"I'm just thinking," Winn muttered. "Did you ever date a red head?"
"Winn, you already married me. A little late to be asking for my dating history," Amelia pointed out, with a laugh.
"I'm just curious," Winn said. "I'll tell you my history."
"I'm pretty sure I know your history. It was in Ray's best man speech," Amelia said as she put the juice away and took her glass. "You had an arrangement with a girl who became a super villain, then had a crush on Kara with a competition between you, James, and Adam on who would date her. Then you dated a guy who still works for STAR labs and now me."
"Okay… so, I deserve to know yours," Winn pointed out. "Come on. Your energy needs to refill on the game anyway."
"Fine," Amelia said, shaking her head as she sat back down. "I guess the first person we need to talk about would be Brandon Tran – well at least that's the name I knew him by. It wasn't that long after Caitlin's miracle cure had healed me. He was new in the city. A little older than me. Asian by the way. I never did find out his origin…"
-Karry Universe-
On Other Karry, when Amelia was young, she had walked up onto the roof. Brandon was there with a telescope.
"You know there is too much light in the city to see the stars," Amelia pointed out as she walked over to him. "Your mom told me I could find you up here."
"There's more to see in the sky than stars," Brandon remarked to Amelia with a smile as she sat next to him.
"True," Amelia said looking up. "I'd like to see the stars though."
"Maybe one day we can go out of the city. Take my telescope," Brandon said as the two look up.
"Somewhere intimate," Amelia breathed as Brandon inched closer. "Like a forest grove or…" and then Brandon kissed Amelia. It was a peak on the lips and he seemed embarrassed the moment he pulled away.
"Mmm," Amelia muttered.
"I… I hope that was okay," Brandon looked away, embarrassed.
"Yes, it was," Amelia said and kissed Brandon back.
-Karry Universe-
"Ah, your first kiss," Winn said, back in the present. "So, did you–?"
"Amelia, Winn!" It was Kara coming down the stairs to their level of the Penthouse; Barry was not far behind her. They had Nora and Alura with them.
"Let me guess, you need us to watch the girls?" Winn asked.
"Actually, we were wondering if you wanted to go out to dinner tonight with us?" Barry said, but had a smile on his face and gave a knowing laugh at Winn's comment.
"That would be nice," Amelia said with a nod.
"What are you two doing?" Kara asked having heard a bit of the conversation from above.
"Winn wanted to know my dating history," Amelia said, the two looked at each other as they moved to sit on couch too, putting Alura and Nora down and giving them an iPad to play with. Amelia gave a laugh. "Okay, to catch you up we were on my first kiss, which was after my cancer was removed. Brandon Tran, who I later found out wasn't really Brandon Tran. He was in witness protection. Apparently, he witness some drug or gang activity and was waiting to testify, but he forgot his telescope was connected to the internet. The gang tracked it and killed him before he could."
"Oh," Kara said.
"Damn," Winn muttered.
"That is rough," Barry stated.
"Actually, he was really from Midville. Maybe you know his alternate Kara? Kenny Li was his real name," Amelia said, hopeful.
Kara raised an eyebrow and then shook her head. "No," Kara said. "Never heard of him."
"Well, that sucks," Winn said. "He seemed sweet."
"Trust me, this is only the beginning of a very dramatic love life," Amelia said, loving the attention and making the three wonder at those words. "Besides, I ended up getting that telescope. I had it until the day my world was destroyed. Anyway, guess the next person we should talk about is my first college boyfriend. My freshman year, also the man I lost my virginity to. He was… a bit older than me. Well he was a grad student actually. You actually know his alternate. Well, did."
"Who?" Barry asked.
"Nate Heywood," Amelia said.
"Nate Heywood?" Winn frowned, the name not ringing a bell.
"Citizen Steel," Kara explained. "He was in the Justice League for a couple of months. Ray's college friend. Darkseid killed him."
"Oh, the guy who could turn to steel," Barry stated.
"Yes, well, my Nate Heywood was not a superhero," Amelia sighed. "At first, he was sweet, charming, and fun. Witty. I had a good time with him. But… well there was more to him than I thought. Something not… well, you know that cure that saved my life?"
"The one that gave you superpowers," Barry said.
"And made you infertile," Winn added.
"And was recently used on SuperEarth's version of you," Kara concluded.
"Well, it wasn't a secret on my world. Everyone knew about it, it's side effects, and who got it. And well, I was the one person who got the cure who didn't go…" Amelia paused as she was trying to come up with the right words.
"Supervillain," Barry supplied.
"Bingo," Amelia said, snapping her fingers and pointing at Barry. "Well, Nate was a hemophiliac. And he thought that it was possible the cure could be passed on to him. When kissing and… well, sex…" Winn and Barry made a face at that, "didn't work, one night he tried something else and I caught him in the act."
-Karry Universe-
Younger Amelia had been asleep when she was woken up to a pain in her arm. Opening her eyes, she saw Nate with a flashlight in his mouth and a needle in her arm. She jumped up at that making the needle hurt more.
"What the hell are you doing?!" Amelia cried out, jumping from the bed. She had spent the night in his apartment off-campus and as she stood, she ripped the needle out of her arm and then put her hand over the wound to stop the bleeding.
"Millie," Nate said, trying to sound reasonable. "It's not what it looks like."
"It looks like you're trying to steal my blood," Amelia snapped back.
"Okay, so it's exactly what it looks like," Nate groaned. "But you got to understand."
"Understand what? What could you possibly…?" Amelia paused as her clever brain figured it out. "The cure. You want to take the cure from my blood?"
"Exactly!" Nate said. "You got to understand wanting that cure. You took it."
"I was dying and it was experimental. We didn't know the consequences of it," Amelia implored.
"Consequences? You can move objects with your mind!" Nate snapped back. "I'd gladly take that consequence to get rid of this disease I have."
"You're a hemophiliac. You can live with it. Others do," Amelia pointed out, her voice getting louder.
"Why should I have to when you have a miracle cure in your body that can cure everything?!" Nate was shouting now. "It's not right it was made illegal!"
"You knew," Amelia said, her voice suddenly deathly calm as she shook her head. "This entire time. When you introduced yourself. You invited me to that movie and dance. When you slept with me and took my virginity. It was all for the cure. Not for me."
"Millie," Nate said, seeing the hurt in her eyes and trying to calm down himself. "I needed it…"
"You used me!" Amelia snapped, turning around, and grabbing her stuff as she ran out of the apartment in tears. Nate shook his head and was shocked when he was hit on the back of the head – hard. "I can astral project too by the way," Amelia's astral projection said before disappearing as Nate rubbed the back of his head.
-Karry Universe-
"I'd punch him," Barry said, immediately after hearing the story of Nate.
"Punch!" Alura and Nora called out from their playing, making all turn to them.
Don't give our kids bad habits, Kara thought Barry. "That was horrible. It must have been awful seeing him around campus after that."
"I didn't really need to worry," Amelia shrugged, confusing them. "Not long after that he disappeared into thin air. No one ever found or saw him again. The FBI even questioned me but I was at my brother's wedding to his pregnant girlfriend when he disappeared." Kara and Barry looked at each other with a smile. Their alternates.
"Wait," Winn said, his mind turning. "Someone who mistreated you just disappeared into thin air? Did you know Len at that time?"
"Yeah of course," Amelia said with a nod. "Why?"
"I think I get what Winn's thinking," Barry said, getting on Winn's train of thought. "Is it possible Len took care of Nate?"
"Well, um…" Amelia paused at this. "He did take to me as a little sister almost right away. And with my Barry a little busy he was the one I cried to so… you know I never put that together." Amelia shrugged it off though.
"Is there anyone else in your past who's not so dramatic?" Kara asked with a chuckle.
"Well, I dated some random guys after Nate, but I guess the next person who unfortunately has to be taken seriously is William Dey," Amelia said making a face and shaking her head.
"Who?" The other three chorused.
-Karry Universe-
Younger Amelia walked out of the elevator and into CatCo, heading straight for Cat's office. Her step-mother was in there with another man.
"Oh, sorry mom, am I early?" Amelia asked; she was meant to be having lunch with Cat, after all.
"No, we were just finishing up," Cat said with a smile. "Millie, this is William Dey. I just hired him. William, this is my daughter, Millie."
"Pleasure," William said, holding out a hand that Amelia took. "Are you following in your mother's footsteps?" Amelia took in the British accent, the tanned skin, and wondered why he had decided to move here, but didn't ask as she went to answer his question instead.
"Oh no," Amelia said shaking her head.
"Millie has the brains of a scientist," Cat added in, "just like her brother. She's interning at STAR Labs until grad school starts." Amelia gave a nod at that. She had to check in regularity at STAR Labs anyway to make sure no new side effects came about to the cure that had saved her life. Plus, she had good friends there – Harrison Wells had given her an internship, helping a new hire, Cisco Ramon, with his projects which she loved.
"Interesting," William said. "Well, you better get to your mother-daughter lunch and I have work to do but Millie I would love to get to know you better. Can I treat you to dinner tomorrow?"
"Sure," Amelia said.
"It's a date," William said back as he watched Cat and Amelia leave.
"He seems… nice," Amelia said to her mother, looking back to Cat.
"He's all-business but he is quite attractive," Cat stated, a knowing look on her face as the elevator doors closed on them.
"Mom!" Amelia protested, but bit her lip as she thought of the man.
-Karry Universe-
"So how did that date go?" Kara asked, thinking this guy sounded charming.
"Bad," Amelia said shaking her head. "As in I-never-wanted-to-see-him-again bad. I told him no for a second date but the weirdest thing started to happen. I kept seeing him everywhere I went."
"He stalked you," Winn said, almost not believing it.
"Yes, but not for the reason you think. It turns out he moved from Britain to get a story on Harrison Wells. He was convinced Doctor Wells had released meta humans onto the word with the cure on purpose; that he was some type of super villain… I mean how out rigorous is that?" Amelia paused as she saw the faces. "I forgot your history with Harrison Wells, but mine was a teddy bear. I swear."
"What happened?" Barry asked.
"Well, I found this all out one night when I went to a bar to meet up with Caitlin and Cisco," Amelia said…
-Karry Universe-
The Younger Amelia walked to the table where Caitlin and Cisco were. She was all dressed up and was ready for a night out.
"Hey guys," Amelia said with a smile as she put her bag down. "Karaoke night? You know my jam."
"Too bad we can't get your brother and sister-in-law here," Caitlin said. "They would bring down the house."
"Nora and Alura keep them too busy to sing 'All I Ask of You' at every karaoke bar," Amelia joked.
"Hey, Millie…" Cisco stated. "You got a guy eyeing you – and us."
Amelia turned around and groaned when she saw William Dey sitting at the bar with a drink, not being sneaky at all as he kept looking at them.
"Urgh," Amelia sighed, turning back in her seat.
"Is that him?" Caitlin asked, having been the person Amelia had talked about her new stalker and putting two-and-two together.
"Yeah, my very own British stalker," Amelia sighed. "I can't go anywhere without him there. Makes me happy I am about to return to college."
"He's bothering you," Cisco summarized; he had a look in his eye. "I'll take care of this."
"Cisco you don't… I can take…" Amelia words were cut off as Cisco took a drink and then stood, marching over to where William was. "He didn't have to," Amelia groaned
"This should be interesting," Caitlin said as she watched. "William seems to be the bigger man."
"Hey," Cisco was saying, coming up to William and punching him in the arm. "She's not into you! So, stop embarrassing yourself and leave her alone."
"I don't think this is any of your business," William stated, frowning at Cisco.
"Millie is my friend and you're annoying her. What are you, keeping notes?" Cisco asked, seeing the notepad and then seeing the words on it. "No wait, this is about STAR? You're trying to write an article on Doctor Wells!" The dots connected for the brilliant man. "You're trying to use Amelia to get to him."
"Like I said this is none of your business," William snapped, standing off his stool now.
"Back off," Cisco said, pushing William now.
William gave a laugh and then punched Cisco, causing the man to fall over. Before William could go in for another punch, he found himself floating in the air.
"Get away from my Cisco!" It was Amelia; she and Caitlin coming over and she having used her powers to make him float. "And get away from me," Amelia put him down gently. "Oh, and Willy, I heard what Cisco said. What you're trying to do… I'm telling my mom you're stalking me and why."
William opened his mouth and then thought the better of it. He then some money down on the table, grabbed his stuff, and walked out.
"Okay, the show is over," Caitlin said, seeing the people at the bar had turned to look at them. "We're going to need some ice..."
The bartender behind the counter gave a nod and went to get the ice.
"I told you I could handle myself," Amelia said, crouching down to help Cisco up.
"Your Cisco," Cisco however said, giving a smirk to this.
"Bad choice of words," Amelia said, but gave a smirk back.
-Karry Universe-
"Wow, and I thought Iris had bad luck with guys when we were in college," Kara whistled, remembering Iris's trail of losers before she met Eddie.
"Please tell me Cat took care of William Dey?" Barry asked.
"You know mom," Amelia said with a smile. "She did not take someone stalking her daughter for a story about her friend who saved her daughter's life well. She fired him and then made sure to contact everyone she knew to blackball him from the industry. Never heard from him again. Never saw anything. It's like he disappeared off the face of the planet."
"Did Len know about what happened?" Winn asked.
"Of course, but he…." Amelia started and then paused as she thought it over. "I think I need to have a word with Len." Amelia took out her cellphone and texted Len a message while Winn laughed.
"You dated Cisco," Kara stated at this.
"I did," Amelia said with a nod. "It started that night. Lasted for a few years. We both decided we were more friends than romance. Probably my best relationship before Winn, here."
"Did he disappear?" Winn joked.
"If he did I would not be here," Amelia pointed out with a smile. "We broke it off not that long before our world was destroyed and Cisco accidentally sent me off."
"So that's it," Barry said. "Your next relationship is Winn."
"Um…." Amelia faltered. "Depends. Does a one-night stand with the male version of Thea count?"
"One nigh sand!" Nora and Alura yelled out making everyone look at them.
"Amelia!" Kara snapped.
"What are those two, parrots?" Amelia said
"Pawwots," Alura and Nora copied, and Amelia pointed as if that proved her point.
"The male version of Thea?" Winn asked, wanting back on the topic.
"Theo Queen," Amelia nodded. "See I had the plan to scan for portals to get off Gender Earth, but needed major satellite access. I got my shot with Theo. Charmed him and used him to hack into Queen satellite system and install my program. Plus, male Thea is really hot."
Kara had to laugh at that one. "So that's it," Amelia said. "My entire dating history and also kind of how I ended up here. Without all that my path could have been different." Before anyone could comment on that Amelia's phone rang.
"It's Len," Amelia said answering the phone and putting it on speaker. "Hey Len, I got a question for you. Did you kill all my ex boyfriends back on our world?"
"Yes," Len said without hesitation.
"Len!" Amelia stated, almost shocked.
"That Nate and William deserved it. If Cisco had done anything to you, he would have been with them," Len said, not regretting it at all. "Besides, our world is dead. This is old news."
"He really would have killed me if it didn't work out with us," Winn said.
"Still might," Len said over the speaker, having heard the comment. "I got my eyes on you, Nerd."
"You can't threaten my husband like that," Amelia retorted.
"Can, and will," was all Barry and Kara heard as Amelia walked away with the speaker on; Winn decided to follow her to the other room.
"I can't believe Len actually did it," Barry mused, shaking his head.
"I can," Kara said with a smile, making Barry look at her. "This is Leonard Snart we're talking about after all."
Barry gave a nod. "Do you think Clark would have actually done it?" Barry asked now, sharing the memory of Clark's threat to him in their teenage years through the bond. "If I had done something as bad as those two did to Amelia?"
"Um… Clark no," Kara said. "For all his talk, he's a big sweetheart. Alex, maybe." Kara said, reminding Barry of Alex's threat through their bond. "Astra definitely. Especially back then." Barry gave a laugh and then nodded. Of Kara's three family members who threatened him, it was probably Astra who would have carried through with the threat.
"I did have a weird dream of her once, before I met her. She threatened me," Barry mused.
"Didn't she admit to breaking into your dorm to threaten you," Kara laughed at this as Barry chuckled too. "Here's a question though; would you really have done it if Winn had hurt Amelia or Connor had hurt Rae?"
"I don't know," Barry said truthfully. "Never had to find out." Alura and Nora turned his attention to their play at this. "Maybe someday we'll find out with them..." Barry leaned forward and kissed Kara's cheek.
They overheard Amelia and Len arguing in the next room. That was until Alura and Nora started to copy them, and shout 'kill' in response to Amelia's shout of 'killing'.
"Maybe Amelia is right. These two have become little parrots," Barry frowned at this.
Post Chapter Note 1: And there we have it! Like I said, a different Anniversary but I could not figure out another way to visit Karry Universe's past and I loved this idea from the minute I thought of it (originally for the 3000-review celebration but Amelia/Winn did not win that vote). So, maybe not Karry, but at least Other Karry. Anyway, I hope you like. I added more Kara and Barry to it than originally planned but needed Kara and Barry for the Anniversary, after all.
Post Chapter Note 2: Despite this little break from it, Crisis is still coming! Expect a special SuperEarth entry this coming Sunday before we come back with another special Karry next Sunday.
Please REVIEW and let me know what you think of 5 years of Karry.
Karry Master OUT!
