Barry's p.o.v
Rain reign over me now and forevermore. I can't ignore this feeling that a great storm is coming. My patience is running thin. My pain is skin deep. I am unsure if I can win this war. Will you be able to stand and endure the blood chaos? Please forgive me if I may go insane and lose my way.

Jubilee Grace Allen's p.o.v
Mother's unexpected presence startles me. "Grace, I have been looking for you. I thought you disappeared like your dad" she teases me. "Unfortunately I am still here" I pout. "I am glad you are here. Nora and you have been a super big help" mom lifts my spirits. "I am hungry. Let's go to the lounge" Nora suggests.
Place: The Lounge
Iris' p.o.v
"Earth to Mom" Nora teases me. "I was daydreaming. I am sorry" I apologize. "You must be thinking about Dad again" Grace assumes. "It is normal for Barry to just disappear. It is impossible for him to erase himself from existence" I mention to my daughters. Barry's evil future self, Savitar shows up and starts creating drama.

Iris' p.o.v
I reach for his hands and lips. He takes a step back from me. "You know what the doctor said. Even now we cannot and we must not" he advises me. "We have two daughters in the future. Their names are Nora and Jubilee. Somehow we are able to have them. We shouldn't listen to the doctor" I share with him.
Time Period: Jubilee's Fantasy and Reality
Place: Star Labs
Jubilee's p.o.v
I remember chaos broke out at the lounge. Mom, Nora, and I were stuck in the crossfire. Savitar aka Dad's dark and evil future self-manipulated us. He touched my cheek sending my body into an immediate shock. I discovered myself back at Star Labs. Caitlin, Cisco, and Jack Frost (Caitlin's son) had dragged me out of the warzone. Something had went wrong with my heart stint.
Jubilee's p.o.v
Silently, a young man observes me from across the room. He gets up from his chair and leaves the room. Somehow we are related. I want to chase after him, but the others hold me back. They say his name is Joseph. Joseph is my brother or Lackthereof. My mother miscarried him sometime during the Crisis of Infinite Earths. She didn't know she was pregnant.
Time Period: An Alternate Universe-The Club
Jubilee's p.o.v
I am a homebody, but my siblings forced me to out of the house. Honestly speaking, I believe Nori and Joe wanted to come to the club more for their own personal entertainment.
Place: Still at the club
Jubilee's p.o.v continued
"Excuse me. I must spend time with my boyfriend" Mia Smoak-McQueen breaks in. Joe kisses Mia right in front of Nori and me. He doesn't care if we are watching. "I love you so much" Mia seduces our brother. "I love you too" he admits.
Jubilee's p.o.v continued
He reenters the room and reclaims his place at my bedside. He takes my face in his hands. "You are in better hands. We were never meant to coexist. I apologize for leaving you so soon" Joe tells me.
Place: Star Labs
Jubilee's p.o.v
Accompanied by Nora, my emotional mom rushes to my sickbed. "OH, my poor baby! I am sorry about your heart condition" mom apologizes. "Joseph looked after me in your absence. Did you see my brother walking out of the room?" I deflect. This name, Joseph, stirs something deep inside my mom. She runs out of the room crying. "Mom miscarried Joseph during the crisis of infinite earths. She didn't know she was pregnant at the time" Nora reminds me.
Time Period: A Flashback

Situation: Iris has a miscarriage on the Wave Rider
Iris' p.o.v
The ship's unsteady rocking increases my nausea. I vomit in a nearby trashcan. Besides nausea, I am experiencing painful menstrual cramps. I rest hoping that they will pass over soon. "This too shall pass" I remind myself. Suddenly, I develop an urgent need to use the bathroom. I make a mad dash over to the bathroom and shut myself in. A dead fetus, not urine, comes out of my body. I weep for my son whom I didn't know I was carrying. I name him Joseph Bartholomew West Allen.

Place: A Dream or a Time Warp
Situation: During the crisis of infinite earths, Iris tells Barry that she had a miscarriage
Barry's p.o.v
No time, distance, or a crisis can separate us. I run into Iris' arms and give her a long passionate kiss. Something doesn't feel quite right because her eyes are watery. "You are emotional because we haven't seen each other in a long time" I assume. Iris takes my hand in hers. "I had a miscarriage during my time on the Wave Rider. I never knew I was pregnant. It was a boy and you were the father" Iris drops on me. My heart is broken beyond repair. Thoughts about what could've been haunt and taunt me. I am on the brink of tears. "I love you. I thank you for telling me about the miscarriage. I am so sorry. I should've been there for you. The miscarriage wasn't your fault" I comfort my grieving wife. "His name was Joseph Bartholomew West Allen. I sent him to a different realm so that he could have a second chance at life. We might see him again" she encourages me. Her good lifted my spirits.
Time Period: The Present Reality
Iris' p.o.v continued
"Hello, my beautiful mother" a male voice shouts out from down the hall way. He probably heard me crying. "Who are you? Please reveal yourself" I inquire. A handsome young man, resembling Barry and myself, steps out of the shadows. He gives me a real tight bear hug. "My name is Joseph Bartholomew West Allen. You can call me Joe for short. You miscarried me and then sent me to a different realm" the young man refreshes my memory. "Oh my precious son" my voice cracks.
Iris' p.o.v
"Your father is missing. Nora, Jubilee, and I would appreciate your help in bringing him home" I plead with my son. "I will stay and help you guys" Joe agrees. Jubilee is well enough to help Nora, Joe, and me to search for Barry. We find him nowhere around Star

The Legendary speedster, Godspeed rescues me. Together, we win the battle against our enemies. I discover Godspeed is really my son named Joseph Bartholomew West Allen. Iris, Nora, and Jubilee worked behind the scenes.
Jack Snow Albert's p.o.v (he is Caitlin and Julian's young adult son)
Although I am glad the West Allen Family is back together, I am jealous. I love and miss my dad who divorced my mom. He blamed mom for my sister Kylie's death. Kylie was a snow angel in which is another name for a stillborn. Dad took Kylie's loss very hard because he was the one who delivered her. I remember she was born prematurely and unexpectedly at Star Labs. Mom was blindsided by the divorce papers. Dad's departure nor the divorce broke us. Our bond has been stronger than ever before. I have considered Cisco to be my second father.

Caitlin's p.o.v
Julian is appalled to see me at work. He is my colleague, husband and doctor. As my doctor, he ordered for me to stop working. "You are seven months pregnant. I remember I put you on mandatory bedrest. I fear and worry there will be another complication with the pregnancy. You should've stayed at home" Julian stresses.

Caitlin's p.o.v
"Hello Kylie. This is your mom. I miss you so much" I sob long and hard. I place a teddy bear and flowers down at the tombstone. "I knew I would find you here at the cemetery" a familiar male voice says behind me. I turn around and Jack pulls me into a tight embrace.
Place: The Cemetery
Joseph Allen's p.o.v
From afar, Mia and I can spot Caitlin and Jack at Kylie's gravesite. We give them space though. Our main focus is Oliver McQueen. Mia's dad, Oliver was the legendary Green Arrow. He died trying to save lives during the Crisis of Infinite Earths.

Before we lose our heart and purpose again, we savor and cherish every moment. For example, this morning I cooked breakfast for my husband and our three young adult children.
Place: Star Labs
Caitlin's p.o.v
While The Allens are catching up, I bury myself in work. Working has taken my mind off Kylie's stillbirth. Cisco's presence startles me. I expected for Cisco to be with Jack who is still mourning Kylie. "I am sorry for startling you" he apologizes. "I forgive you. I must get back to work. The timeline has been changed or broken" I inform him. His pretty brown eyes grow big with shock and concern. "How has the timeline been changed or broken?" he wonders. "Jack, Joe, or Jubilee must've changed the timeline. They are defects. They were never meant to exist" I explain with tears in my eyes.
Barry's p.o.v
Caitlin and Cisco are unusually quiet. They avoid making eye contact with me. "Why are you two so quiet?" I ask breaking the ice. "Joe, Jubilee, or Jack ruined the time line. They are defects. They were never meant to exist. One of your kids or mine must be erased" Caitlin reveals.
Barry's p.o.v continued
"The one with the weak heart deserves to be terminated. She is a huge burden on you and Iris" Caitlin hints in reference to my daughter Jubilee. Caitlin's words saddens and angers me. She has never talked bad about Jubilee before this moment. "Jubilee is not a huge burden on Iris and me. We love our daughter. I am not terminating our daughter. She deserves to live no matter what. You should terminate your son Jack" I argue. "Go to hell, Barry. I am not killing my only child for your benefit" Caitlin shots right back at me. Cisco is stuck in the middle of our drama. He wants to leave the room, but he stays put just in case Caitlin or I may need him for moral support.
Time Period: A Flashback
Event: Jubilee's drowning and death
Iris' p.o.v
My crew and I voted for Star Labs to have a swimming pool. We used the swimming pool during our off days or whenever. Barry and I kept a very close eye on Jubilee. Jubilee wasn't a good swimmer. We feared her heart or body would give out. She tempted fate anyway. Barry held me back from saving our drowning daughter. The abyss, a whirlpool consumed her corpse. Barry strongly advised me to let her go. According to Barry and Caitlin, her existence messed up the timeline. Her death was necessary for the greater good.
Jubilee's p.o.v
I remember I drowned in the pool at Star Labs. The abyss, a whirlpool consumed me. I was transported to my grandparents' house. They live on a different earth.
Barry's p.o.v
"I don't know you. Please leave me alone" Jubilee's doppelganger demands. "I am your dad. Your memories have been erased or you suppressed them" I reinforce. "You should go back to your Earth" Jay recommends.

Iris' p.o.v
"Iris, I have contacted Barry. He is on his way" my dad informs me. "Ouch" I shriek clutching my stomach in pain. I dread losing my baby even though she has a low chance for survival. "Have your pains started again? Do I need to get the doctor?" he panics. "The pain has passed over. I am fine for now" I assure him. He kisses my forehead and stomach. I dismiss him to check on Nora and Joe who are sitting in the waiting room.
The doctor and Barry show up at my room around the same time. "This pregnancy hasn't been an easy one. By the way that things are going right now, the baby may die. You can terminate the pregnancy or let the baby die in utero "the doctor warns Barry and me. "Doc, we appreciate your advice. We need time alone and to think" my emotional husband requests nicely. "I understand" the doctor agrees leaving the room.
"Iris, it is your body and choice. I will support your decision. Do you want to have an abortion or just let the baby die in utero?" Barry begins our heart to heart conversation. "I can't and will not abort our baby" I reinforce.
Time Period: A Flashback
Situation: Iris' miscarriage with Jubilee
Iris' p.o.v
The sun, like my sore body, can barely rise up. Painful cramps have paralyzed me. Something is wrong because I am bleeding heavily in the bed. I can feel my unborn baby starting to slip away. Barry is busy with saving the world. My physical ailments prevent me from contacting him. Feeling helpless and hopeless, I cry and scream into my pillow. My frightened children, Joseph and Nora, wonder what is wrong with me. Before I can say anything, my dad calls me.

Barry's p.o.v
The Speed Force drops me off at the hospital. I am clueless as to why I am here until Joe spots me outside. He gives me a tight big bear hug. "I am sorry for your loss, Barry" Joe drops on me like a ton of bricks. "What happened to Iris and our children?" I ask him. "Your little angels, Joseph and Nora are okay. Iris miscarried Jubilee. Probed to many complications, the pregnancy has been unsustainable. Iris is absolutely devastated" Joe informs me. "Please take me to Iris" I request nicely even though I am on the verge of tears myself.

I catch up with Iris at the doctor's office. Iris forgives my tardiness. She understands that I have been busy with saving the world. She informs me that Joe and Lucille are babysitting Joseph and Nora. Hand in hand, my wife and I embrace for the doctor's updates on our unborn daughter Jubilee. Jubilee's health status is still grim. The doctor warns we might lose her.

"Hello Barry" a solemn Iris addresses me. She rests a hand over her flat stomach. "Barry, I had a miscarriage. I tried to contact you, but I was in a lot of pain. My womb had to be cleaned out asap" Iris sobs pulling on my heartstrings. I fall apart in her arms, ignoring everyone and everything around us. "Your father told me about the baby. I should've arrived sooner" I weep. "You are not at fault here. I should've been more careful" Iris assures me. "Neither you or I killed our baby. God needed Jubilee more than us" I console her.

"Bedrest is boring. Our kids need me" I protest. "I can take care of Nora and Joe. I know the real you. You are not fine, physically or mentally. The miscarriage has deeply affected you" Barry advises me. "It hurts, but I just want to move on" my voice cracks. "I understand that you want to move on. The doctor has ordered for you to be on bedrest" Barry reminds me.

Time Period: A Flashback-An Alternate Universe
Place: A Hospital Delivery Room
Event: Jubilee's premature birth
Barry's p.o.v
Iris and I already had two kids, Joseph and Nora. We were content with Joe and Nora until Iris found herself surprisingly with child again. Unlike our previous two pregnancies, our third pregnancy wasn't smooth sailing. A hole was detected in Jubilee's heart. The doctor said it was a matter of time when she died in utero. Against all odds, Iris and I had hope. Abortion wasn't an option for us. Who knew Iris' water would break early?
Presently, the doctor examines Iris and concludes Iris is fully dilated. Iris dreads giving birth prematurely, but her body can't contain the baby much longer. When the moment is right, Iris starts pushing. "I can feel her. She is coming" Iris stresses squeezes my hand. "Jubilee is arriving six months early, but she is right on time. I trust in your ability to bring her into the world" I encourage my wife.
Time Period: A Flashback- An Alternate Universe
Place: The Allen's residence- Jubilee's nursery
Barry's p.o.v
Although Jubilee is fine, I check on her more than Nora and Joseph. Jubilee's heart is in poor condition. I dread anything bad may happen to her especially when she is sleeping.
Scene: between a flashback and the present reality
Barry's p.o.v
Iris understands that I have to clear my mind outside. I encounter Jubilee's doppelganger outside. "I know who you are. You are my dad. I am sorry for pretending I didn't know you" she apologizes. "I love you. You deserve to live and to be in my life. Your early demise, Please end this madness at once. This pain and sorrow is unbearable" I demand. "You nor mom didn't rescue me when I was drowning in the pool at Star Labs. You and mom allowed me to die due to my heart condition" Jubilee reminds me. "Your death was unnecessary. I am so sorry. I love you" I cry embracing her.
Time Period: A Flashback
Place: The Speed Force
Barry's p.o.v
The speed force opened before us. "I am sorry for letting you down. Your life is not a burden or a mistake. Please grab my hand. I am going to take you home" I stressed reaching for Jubilee's hand. "I trust and believe you, Dad" she surrendered. The speed force transported us both home and so I thought.

Barry's p.o.v
I wake up with my precious Jubilee weighing on my mind. "Jubilee is not dead. I encountered her doppelganger. I remember holding her hand. Did she make it out of the speed force?" I ask Iris and our coworkers. "Barry, you experienced a great fall. We almost lost you. Jubilee didn't make it out of the speed force" Iris informs me.
Barry's p.o.v continued
I am dying in a bottomless pool of my tears. I request everyone except for Iris to leave the room and perhaps my life temporarily. Nothing such as a minor heartattack can compare to Jubilee's death. Her drowning and death were unnecessary.
Time Period: A Flashback
Situation: Post Iris' miscarriage with Jubilee
Scene: The Hospital
Barry (emotional, he encounters Jubilee's doppelganger in the hospital parking lot): You do not exist anymore because your mom miscarried you. Please stop with all this chaos. My heart can't handle it.

Joe's p.o.v
Mia returns from her mom's house in tears. She sits down on the couch beside me. I turn off the television at once. "Darling, why are you crying?" I ask my girlfriend. "My brother William has Leukemia" she sobs heavily.
