Haven't managed to update this much stuff in a while in a short time. And thank you all for the support for this, and my other stories.
Also I recently created a new one called Loud Loops, and if you have any suggestions for it. I'm open for it, and who knows, maybe I'll make a Loop with Lincoln as Barry.
Enjoy.
Attack on Central City (1)
Frost sighed contently as she took a sip of her coffee, she had to say, this earth's coffee was as good as her earth's. Peter had left earlier to get a shower, and a change of clothes, he had left before she could wake up, and before they could talk about last night. But he had left a text saying that he would wait for her and Caitlin at STAR Labs.
Frost was anxious to see what he thought about it, it wasn't like they kissed… or did other things that Frost turned pink for thinking about, and quickly dismissed it. She was also pretty sure she was overreacting, they had sat down like that numerous times, but in friendly type of way. And Frost trying to admit her feelings for him, and Frost had a feeling Peter knew there was something more to that. Then again, she and MJ had joked a couple of times that he can be absent minded sometimes.
Ugh, thinking about this hurt her brain.
'Wow, didn't know you had such a dirty mind.' KF teased.
'Shut up.' Frost said.
KF mentally appeared next to her, sitting on the seat, shrugged and said," Hey, I'm giving you props here. You finally pulled a move on Parker. Took you long enough. Although kissing would've been better."
Frost rolled her eyes and said," Don't get too excited. I've or we've now have entered uncharted territory now."
KF smirked and said," Who's we? I may think Parker is cute, but he's all yours. So you have entered uncharted territory now." She said, and disappeared.
"Gee, thanks for the help." Frost sarcastically said.
Their conversation was cut off when she heard the door to Caitlin's room open, and Caitlin walked out of the room, already dressed for the day. She had a red and black dress on, with her power dampener necklace around her neck. She didn't ask who she was talking to, due to knowing how Frost and KF talked either mentally or out loud, and she gotten used to it. And she found it a little comedic at times, due to them acting like siblings who like to annoy each other, but cared for each other as well.
That was another thing that made them different from each other. Frost liked wearing pants and sneakers, which was also the normal attire for Jemma as well. While this Caitlin seemed more to like wearing dresses.
"Please tell me that's a new pot?" Caitlin asked.
"Yep, I also made some food as well." Frost said.
"Wow, if I had know having me as a roommate was going to be this fun and interesting, I would've asked Kara to bring you here sooner." Caitlin joked, and they shared a laugh.
Caitlin then sat down, and the both of them ate and drank in silence for a few moments. But then Frost was filled with dread when Caitlin said in a teasing tone.
"So, last night, after I got back from dinner. I couldn't help but find a very cute scene on the couch. Mind telling me what happened?"
Frost blushed, and said," I was being bold… gosh, I didn't get a chance to talk to Peter about it." She said the last part with a groan.
Caitlin placed a hand on her shoulder, and said," Hey, don't beat yourself up over it. I mean, all you did lay was on his shoulder. Which I have a feeling you guys have done before. Just talk about it when we get to STAR Labs. And see where this goes."
Frost nodded and said," Yeah, your right. Were you this nervous when you were starting out with Ronnie?"
Caitlin had a fond look and said," You have no idea."
Later, the both of them got to STAR Labs, they and everyone else looked around at HR's decorations. He had told all of them that he had a surprise for everyone, and that left them interested in what it was.
"So this is HR's contribution to the team? Being Martha Stewart?" Jesse said as she looked around.
"Guys, he's just trying to do something nice." Caitlin said.
"Well, just to let you guys know, I helped. Went up to the places where nobody could reach. Apparently on this date, it's a holiday on HR's earth that sounds like Valentine's Day." Peter said.
Frost walked over, and stood next to him, and said," Well, I thank you for the contribution for all this as well, Pete. This is nice."
Peter grinned, gave her one-armed hug and said," Appreciate the compliment. Also we should talk about that thing later."
Frost nodded, even though she was really nervous on the inside.
The other's had heard this, and would've asked, but luckily for Frost, HR came into the room.
"Heads up!" He said as he fired a plastic arrow.
Peter fired a web, caught it, and held it. He then handed it to Frost, with a wink. Frost noticed that Caitlin and Iris were giving her looks. And she didn't know what to make of the situation.
'Maybe Parker is finally becoming smarter. If you know what I mean.' KF said.
"I'm not really good with this kind of thing. You know what I got to do? I got to take some lessons from that guy in the green elf suit, over there in Star City, what's his name?"
Peter shook his head in amusement and said," That would be Green Arrow. But he has nothing on the Archer on my Earth."
Frost snorted and said," If Clint heard that, his ego would inflate."
"We can talk about how Ollie may have a rival later. But I would like to know is what all of this is?" Barry asked as he pointed around the room.
"Friend's Day." HR said, as if it was obvious.
"Friends Day?"
"Oh, it's my Earth's equivalent of Valentine's Day. I know, Mr. Parker told me that the date is different on his Earth, and we checked, and it's the same date as his Earth as well."
"And he thought that after our time with the Gorilla's, we should celebrate. I was on board, considering what happened.." Peter further explained.
"And the love as well. And thanks again for helping decorate." HR said.
"Was all this necessary?" Joe asked as he looked around.
"Yeah Joe. Speaking of, where is your lady friend? Cause I would like to-"
"No, you wouldn't like to do anything. she's at work, which is where I should be going." He said and left.
That didn't deter HR as he started to give everyone cards. He then went to Peter and Frost.
"I may have only known you two for a short time but 'You have swung into my heart' and 'You are a Killer friend.' Wait, I'll be back, cause I forgot the coffee." He said and took off into another room.
The both of them soon got some drinks, and some food.
"The guys like an energetic puppy. He's just full of good vibes." Peter mused.
"I like it; he just makes you feel good about yourself, and knows how to bring your spirits up. And he's right, we should just celebrate the occasion." Frost said.
Peter snorted and said," With my luck, or our luck, trouble will find us sooner or later. Also seriously? What am I chopped Liver? I don't bring your spirits up?" He said the last part in a fake hurt tone.
Frost smirked and said," Don't worry Parker, you do. I mean, who else will laugh at your corny jokes."
Peter pretended to look offended and said, "Corny? That's a low blow, Frost. Why must you always diss my jokes?"
Cisco and Caitlin, who were near them, and had heard their conversation with Cisco saying," Will you please stop with the flirting. It's kinda a letdown for me."
Peter and Frost gave him confused, mixed with slight embarrassment, with Caitlin saying, even though she was slightly amused," He's just sad he doesn't have anyone special right now. But I'm telling him, that there is someone out there for him."
"Yeah, tell them my problems, thanks." Cisco sarcastically said.
Peter would've said something, but for some reason, is Spider-Sense started to go off.
Frost gave him a reassuring grin and said," Hey, I've only known you for a short time, Cisco Roman, but I think you have a shot with anyone. Heck she could be right around the corner."
A portal then appeared, and a woman in a leather suit came out of it, and the portal disappeared, leaving the woman.
"Or, appearing through a portal." Peter said surprised, and his Senses went slightly more haywire when she had appeared.
Cisco grinned and said," Gypsy!"
Peter felt his Spider-Sense going more haywire, and he ended up tackling Cisco out of the way when Gypsy fired a blast of energy at him, and Frost moved Caitlin out of the way.
Barry got up, and was about attack, but Gypsy fired a blast at him, and he ended up dodging it, he sped away from where he was before. But Gypsy fired a blast at him, and this time it hit him, and he hit a wall.
A blast of cold air hit her from behind, and she turned to see Killer Frost.
"Yeah, that's going to be your only warning shot. The next one is going to hurt lady." She said as he held a hand out.
Gypsy was about to approach her, but she was pushed back, and hit a side wall when she got it by a laser, and she was knocked unconscious.
Everyone looked to see Harry holding a weapon, and lowered it once everything looked safe.
"Who the hell is this?" He asked.
KF looked down at her and said," No clue, but she seems to like leather."
Peter, Barry, Cisco and HR were soon standing outside a Meta-Human cell that had an unconscious Gypsy inside of it.
She started to wake up, and looked around as she got up, and saw the others.
"Where am I? Why am I locked up?" She asked.
She then tried to use her powers, but nothing worked.
"Your cell is equipped with Power Dampeners, no use trying." Peter said with a shrug.
"Yep, what he said. What happened? I thought we were all on the same page. I spared your life, and you said you'd go back to Earth-19, and tell everyone you killed HR." Cisco angrily said.
Peter would've questions that, but Team Flash had explained to him and Caitlin how HR's Earth had a law against Inter-dimensional Travel. And considering he traveled from his Earth to Earth-1, he was labeled as a criminal. But Cisco had fought Gypsy, who was looking for him, and once he beat her, she said she wouldn't arrest him.
Both Dimensional Travelers were relieved they didn't have laws like that on their earth.
"That's exactly what I did. I told the council you were dead." Gypsy explained.
"I don't believe you." HR said.
"Yeah, and considering you attacked us for no reason...I don't either." Peter said.
"I didn't come here to take you back! I'm telling you!" She defended.
"Then why are you here?" Barry asked.
Gypsy looked confused and said, "I don't know. The last thing I remember, I was on Earth-2… hunting down another Breacher."
Barry caught that, he was starting to have a bad feeling and said," Wait, you were just on Earth-2? Where?"
Peter started to realize something and groaned," Oh boy, I think I know where this is going."
Gypsy confirmed their theory as she continued, "In an African jungle, where I saw-"
The other three people in the room realized it as well.
"Let me guess, a gorilla? Super tall? Anger management issues?" Cisco asked, even though he and the others knew the answer.
Barry looked grim and said," Grodd must have taken control of her and sent her here to kill us."
Peter's brows furrowed in confusion and said," That may be true but. But I don't think Grodd can control her from Earth-2, unless… Grodd is here." Peter realized.
"And something tells me he's not alone." Cisco added.
Peter just hated when his words came back to haunt them.
Team Flash found themselves in the Cortex, the others didn't need to be informed if Grodd's return, due to watching the footage of the conversation with Gypsy. So they immediately got to work on trying to find any trace of Grodd, and the supposed Gorilla Army he had, but nothing was showing up yet.
"Any sign of him yet?" Barry asked.
"Not since you asked 30 seconds ago." Cisco said.
"He's a giant Gorilla, who's probably leading an army of giant gorillas. How can you not find him?" Barry asked, losing his patience.
Peter sighed and said," Barry, I think Grodd would be smart enough to find a way to mask his signature, and an entire Gorilla Army. So that means whatever satellites you guys are using, won't work."
Cisco agreed with him by saying, "Yeah, we're talking about a genius super-ape here."
"And a master strategist who successfully fooled us on my Earth." Harry added.
"We Wellses, we don't fool easy, do we, hard hat?" HR joked.
"Don't call me 'hard hat'."
Barry walked over to the terminals to stand next to Iris and continued," We have to find him before he hurts somebody else."
"Don't worry, Barry, we will." Iris reassured.
"Every time I think we've beat him, he comes back stronger, smarter, and more dangerous. He's evolving. And I keep trying to fight him the same way."
Peter and Frost shared a look, not liking what he was saying.
"Ok guys, look, we just have to come up with a different way to beat him." Iris said.
"What we need to do is get ahead of him for once." Barry said.
Harry realized something and said, "We can. You've seen the future. You know there's an attack. If we just figure out where that attack happens, we can launch a preemptive strike against Grodd."
"We can stop the attack before it ever starts." Barry finished.
Peter looked at Cisco and said," Good thing we have a guy who can act like our own personal Crystal Ball, who can see into the future."
"Right, not sure how I feel being called that. But there's only one problem. I can only vibe what Barry saw, and a ticker on the side of a bus stop doesn't give us a whole lot of info." Cisco disagreed.
"What if we widen the scope of your vibe?" Caitlin suggested. "Then you can see more of the future."
Harry snapped his fingers and said," Yeah, I can do that. Just need to borrow your vibe gear." He said and started to leave.
Cisco didn't liked the idea and said," Harry, that's my only pair."
"I'll be careful."
"It's my only pair."
"West, come with me. you have an engineer's mind." Harry said.
Wally looked slightly confused, and said," Yeah, sure. Happy to help."
He looked at Jesse, who merely shrugged, not knowing either, and he went off after Harry.
"We're gonna need all the help we can get." Barry said.
Harry then walked back into the room and said," Jess, I need you go back to Central City on Earth-2. I want you to bring you-know-who."
Jesse looked surprised and said," Are you serious? Last time you said she still had a lot to learn."
"Desperate times, and also learning on the go works. Go." He said and left.
Everyone who didn't know what they were talking about had confused looks.
"Who's are you guys talking about?" Cisco asked.
Jesse sighed and said," Long story. Do you happen to have an extra Inter-Dimensional thing on you?"
Cisco nodded said," Yeah, let me go get it." He said and left.
Peter and Frost looked at each other, knowing they were thinking the same thing.
"Yeah, we also need to go to Earth-38 as well. Let's hope Kara, Bette or someone else can help." Peter said.
Barry nodded and said," Right, we'll talk to Joe, see if he can rally CCPD." Barry said.
"Yeah, I'll let him know that an army of sentient gorillas is about to storm the city. He's gonna love that." Iris sarcastically said the last part.
"We'll be back soon." Frost said.
Peter pulled out his Interdimensional Extrapolator, and activated it.
"Well, things are going to become a whole lot of fun." Frost said.
"Yeah, me and my big mouth." Peter sarcastically said as he thought about what he said earlier, and they then walked into the portal, and they were then on their way back to Earth-38.
J'onn was talking to an Agent, and M'gann was sitting in a chair, talking to Winn when a portal appeared in the middle of the room. Everyone in the vicinity aimed their weapons, and waited for whatever or whomever would come out. J'onn recognized the portal, but he didn't know would come through.
"Everyone stand down, but stay on alert!" He ordered.
His question was answered when Peter and Caitlin came through the portal.
"Lower your weapons, their friendlies." J'onn said, and all the Agents did so.
Peter looked around and said," Huh that was quite a welcome."
J'onn approached them and greeted, "Mr. Parker, Agent Frost, good to see you again. May I ask what you are doing here?"
Peter bit his lip and said," It's a long story."
Before J'onn could ask further, M'gann walked over to Peter with a grin and said.
"Hey Pete." She said with a grin and a high-fived him.
Peter returned it and said, "Sup, Meg's, how's Earth been treating you? Hey Winn, how's being a 'Man in the Chair' going?"
Winn grinned and said," It's doing good."
"Pretty good. How's Earth-1? I've asking Kara to take me there once I've found out, but we haven't gotten a chance to. Also, who's this?"
Caitlin waved at her and said," Caitlin Frost, you may know me as Killer Frost."
M'gann perked up and said, "Right, my friend Angie is a huge fan of you. Just don't tell Widow or Plastique this, but they are her other favorite Avengers."
Caitlin smiled and said," Well, I would be honored to meet her. But, we have some pressing matters we need to talk about." She said getting serious.
J'onn nodded and said," We'll talk in the conference room." And he motioned for Winn to follow them as well.
Once they were inside, Peter told them of the events of the past couple of days, while Caitlin called Bette to tell her as well.
"So, where's Kara, Cap and Mon-El? Kara told me in a text saying that Widow was visiting, as well. We could use all the help we can get."
"S-so your saying that an army of Sentient, highly evolved, Telepathic, Super Apes from Earth-2 plans to attack Earth-1's Central City." Winn summed it up. "I've watched Planet of Apes, and that doesn't turn out good."
"Believe me, I drew the same comparison." Peter sighed.
Caitlin walked into the room and said," Bette is able to come. She was apparently at Stark Tower getting her room set up. And she also said that Tony had left with Bruce and Pepper a while ago to do something, so they won't be able to help. So, is Kara and the others coming as well?"
J'onn sighed and said," Under normal circumstance yes, but she, Cap, Mon-El, and to an extent, Agent Romanoff are preoccupied at the moment."
"How so?" Peter asked.
"A being from the 5th Dimension has visited, and his kind can warp reality to their will, and they are extremely powerful. This particular one, Mxzyptlk, has his eyes on Kara and… wants to marry her. Right now we're finding out how we can get rid of him."
Peter and Caitlin weren't sure whether to find the situation confusing, or slightly amusing. But they were slightly frustrated that the people they needed weren't able to help, but they understood the seriousness of the others were dealing with.
M'gann realized something and said," Wait, you said that the Gorilla's are Telepathic right? Do you have a way to combat that?"
"Yeah, we were going to ask J'onn if he could come to Earth-2 to help us. But, we have a feeling your too preoccupied to help?"
J'onn sadly nodded and said," Yes, unfortunately. I also have experience with dealing with 5th Dimensional beings. But, I believe M'gann can help you."
M'gann blinked, processing what her Uncle said." Uncle J'onn, I don't think I'm ready for something like that. Are you sure?"
J'onn gave his niece a confident look, and said," I do, M'gann you showed me that you can handle yourself for the couple of months. And I have my entire faith as well. So I know you can do this."
M'gann beamed, hugged him and said," Well since you put it that way. When do we leave?"
"As soon as possible, we have to get Bette as well. And also, the guys in Earth-1 don't know about you. So, hold off on turning into your Martian form until they ask who you are, k?"
M'gann had a mischievous look in her eye and said," Will do."
"So… I take it I can't go either?" Winn said.
"No Agent Schott, we need you here." J'onn said.
Peter gave his friend a reassuring look and said," No sweat Winn, maybe next time."
Winn nodded and said," Going to another Universe is on my bucket list. I already crossed off going to space and another planet. I sure hope so."
"Right, once you guys take care of your 5th Dimension problem, tell the others immediately, and get Kara to call us as soon as she can."
"Will do, and good luck." J'onn said.
The three of them waved as they activated a portal to go to Stark Tower, and they went through.
Bette was currently in Tony's lab, waiting for JARVIS to give her an update on her weapon's condition, due to her wanting to see if she should make some modifications. She had gotten a call from Frost earlier that they needed her help, due to Grodd coming back and this time he had an entire army with him. Last time she and the rest of Team Flash had dealt with Grodd was when he was trying to make more intelligent Gorilla's like himself, but they sent him to Earth 2. Except now it looked like Grodd had figured out a way to come back, and now was out for revenge.
And this time, she couldn't help but compare it to Planet of the Apes.
Unfortunately, Tony didn't listen in on her phone call with Frost, this was due to the fact him, Bruce, and Pepper were out doing something for Bruce. From what Tony said, they were planning on helping Bruce get stuff that he lost while he was on the run. And considering the Government had something to do with it, they were looking for compensation. And Tony also mentioned something about Bruce 'Getting some', and if his sly look meant anything, then Bette didn't want to know the latter.
But she felt that Bruce did deserve some compensation for his years on the run. And she could relate to that, due to her being on the run, and tried to get herself back on the right side of the law. Barry had asked his friend John Diggle if his wife Lyla could help, but she could only do so much, and she unfortunately couldn't do anything.
All in all, moving to this Earth has been nice, and not looking over your shoulder was a bonus, and she couldn't thank Kara enough. And getting to know everyone, including her teammates was nice. With her most recent interactions with Tony and Bruce when she had gotten to the tower made her think more on comparing the people she knew from Earth's 1 and 2 with the people of this Earth.
With Tony, she would say he sorta reminded her of Cisco, with how he was with technology, and at first glance didn't take things seriously, but he did. And also from what she read and heard about him before he became Iron Man, was that he was like Oliver Queen, before he went to the island. But due to getting the wake up calls, they took things more seriously.
And also another person she can compare Tony, and Bruce to was Harrison Wells. Mainly due to how smart they were. And also Wells had an ego like Stark's.
But she could see something similar with her and Doctor Banner. The fact that the Government and or Military wanted to use them for their own benefits, mainly to harness their powers to use them for Military purposes.
"JARVIS, are the scans complete?" Bette asked.
"Yes Miss Souci, scans show that your weapon is fully operational. Shall I make a note to sir that you want him to make some modification's once he gets back?"
Bette thought about it, shrugged and said, "Why not, go ahead. And thanks."
"Your very welcome. Sir has told me to help his teammates in anyway when they need help or any other assistance."
Bette had to admit, Tony had designed and made a very advanced, and surprisingly nice AI. Now if Cisco or Earth 1 Felicity were to come here, they would have a field day with JARVIS and ask Tony everything about him.
She got out of her thoughts when a portal opened, and Peter, Caitlin, and M'gann came through. She had met the latter during one of her visits to National City.
"Hey guys."
Caitlin grinned, hugged her friend and said," Sorry for all of this. But we need all the help we could get."
"No worries. When it comes to my home Earth, I will help no matter what. So, I guess we should go now. Hey J, I'll be back later." Better said as she slung her Rifle to her shoulder.
"Very well, good luck to the four of you."
Peter opened a portal and the four of them went back to Earth 1.
