Part 14
Barry struggled against his bonds. He could see that Caitlin was not looking good. In fact she looked sick. The door opened and both Iris and Lex walked in.
"Hello Barry." Said Iris
"Get Caitlin out of here! You are making her sick! She could die!" yelled Barry
Iris rolled her eyes at him.
"Of course you care more about that bitch then about me." Said Iris
"Why should I care? You divorced me while I was in the speedforce!"
"So Oracle found out about that. Well you abandoned me again! I was not going to put up with that any more. I have come to realize that Lex is right. Those of you with powers are a menace. That freak and those she worked with made this world more dangerous! Everything was normal until that stupid particle accelerator explosion."
"That was Thawne's fault! Not Caitlin or Cisco's."
Lex walked over and placed his fingers on one of Caitlin's pulse points. He made a face.
"Iris, I get you hate Dr. Snow here. But we still need her and well she is not doing to well at the moment." Said Lex
"Fine have some of the guards take her to the medical room." Said Iris
Lex stepped out for a minute and returned with two guards who unstrapped Caitlin and carried her out.
"What happened to you Iris? You never use to be this cold hearted."
"Nothing happened to me. I just woke up. I was blind to think that you so called heroes were doing any good. You made things more dangerous not safer."
"What are you talking about?"
"Do I have to spell it out? When you and the other paragons helped Oliver reboot the universe during crisis he brought back his mom, half sister Emiko and Tommy Merlyn. Weather you intended to or not you brought back Ronnie. But you didn't bring Eddie back!"
"This is about Eddie Thawne?"
"I loved him! But you hated him. You hated him because he stood in your way by keeping me from you."
"I never hated Eddie. I thought he was a great guy. It tore me up that he died. He killed himself to try and prevent Eobard Thawne from being born. It didn't work Thawne is still out there somewhere waiting to make my life hell."
"What about our daughter Nora? You stopped acting like it didn't matter she was erased from existences!"
"Iris, the future changed. Because of Thawne. She worked with him. You didn't care. Now she will never be born."
"Maybe it is better that way. You would make a terrible father."
"I don't even recognize you any more. Joe would be ashamed of you if he was alive."
"Don't speak of my father that way."
"Are you the one that sent the agents after Cecile and little Jenna? Cisco and Kara told me that Joe died protecting them. That they would be either in this hell or dead if Wally hadn't run off with them."
"I will deal with my brother when I find him. We are done."
Iris walked out and two guards came in and dragged Barry off to a cell.

Harry moved around the bed that held Caitlin. He had hooked her up to fluids trying to rehydrate her. He also had an IV of glucose going. He had heard what Iris had been sending her to eat the past couple weeks. It didn't surprise him that the doctor was choosing to starve herself. It also didn't help that she was being shocked daily by that crazy woman. He let out a sigh of relief as he noticed her body temperature finally coming down. With her powers being blocked heat was the worse thing for Caitlin. Not that a ton of heat was good when she could use her powers either. But she at least able to convert some of the heat into energy for her powers. The nurse working with him placed fresh ice packs on Caitlin as she began to stir.
"Snow can you hear me?" asked Harry
"Hot it's too hot." Mumbled Caitlin
"Working on cooling you down. Wish I could turn off those damn power dampeners then you could convert some of it into energy."
"Have you seen Barry or Cisco?"
"No. She was still talking to Allen when you were brought in. Weather you think it is good news or not you will go back to your pipeline cell once you are well enough to leave the medical room."
"Well at least I will be near my friends. What about Kara and J'onn?"
"All I know about Supergirl is she is locked in a red sunlight cell. As for the Martian nothing. Though they do have ways to block his mental powers."
"Harry, if you have a chance escape. Don't worry about me or anyone else."
"Not going to happen Snow. Allen and Ramon went after my daughter when Zoom had her so I won't leave them to rot here. You have been like a big sister to Jesse, she would be royally pissed if I left you with Allen's psycho ex."
"Not to mention the fact I just got word from Oracle according to the Legends Caitlin you are very important to the future timeline." Said Felicity walking in.
"I am a nobody." Said Caitlin
"No you aren't. I don't know what your role is going to be but I believe Sara and Ray. You should too. I gave Oracle the information on how to access the GPS in your shock collar. So expect the Legends and Superman maybe even the Bats and Arsenal to come to the rescue soon."
"You know Jesse will come too. So we just got to hang in there Snow." Said Harry
"I know. But I still want you to promise me that if it comes to it. You will get away and leave me." Said Caitlin
"You just get some rest." Said Harry
Harry looked at Felicity and they moved away from the ice meta.
"You care about Caitlin don't you?" asked Felicity
"Of course I do. I care about Allen and Ramon too. They're family."
"I sent the floor plan to Oracle with were each of the cells that hold our people are too them. Including my mother and Ronnie Raymond. Though I am pretty sure that there is someone else Caitlin loves more than she ever loved Ronnie."
"Allen. He loves her too. Any idiot can see how they feel for each other."
"Right I should get back to my post."
"Right I should keep an eye on her."
Felicity headed back to the control room and Harry went back to the side of the young woman he cared about as a second daughter.
