Part 26
Barry pulled Caitlin into his arms after helping her up from the floor. Sara, Ray and Mick came in a few minutes later. They looked at the couple and Iris laying unconscious on the floor.
"I didn't kill her if you are wondering." Said Caitlin
"Never entered my mind Caitlin. Though it looks like you hit her with something other then your fists." Said Sara
"Ice knuckles. You know kind of like brass knuckles but ice instead." Said Caitlin
"Cool. If we are done here I'm going to find some beer." Said Mick
As he exited he turned back and looked at Caitlin.
"Want to join me Frosty?"
"I will pass Mick." Said Caitlin
"Ok. More for me then."
"That was weird." Said Barry
"Mick has a thing for my Frost side. Been that way since that train wreck you called a wedding to your ex." Said Caitlin like it was no big deal.
"He and Snart kidnapped you once and placed a bomb under the chair they tied you to. Cisco and Joe told me." Said Barry
"Yeah and at the pre wedding party I warned him not to try it again." Said Caitlin
"How did I miss that?" asked Sara
"I think you were a little busy flirting and getting drunk with Kara's sister Alex. That is before the two lf you had a one night stand." Said Barry
"Right." Said Sara
"ARGUS agents are on their way to pick up Iris and Lex. Team Super has him in custody and the rest of our friend have rounded up about twenty men that were working for Lex." Said Ray
"Caitlin, did Batman give you that surprise yet?" asked Sara
"No. Do you know what it is?"
"Yeah, uh I guess I can tell you. Your doppleganger from the old Earth-2 is alive and well and living here on Earth-Prime. Though she seems well past the crazed killer she once was." Said Sara
"Harry told me she changed. That she was a little more like I am now."
"Jesse said the same thing. I am sure that between Felicity and Barbara they can come up with an explanation as to why you two look alike." Said Barry
"Easiest way would be twins separated at birth or just look a like cousins." Said Caitlin
Just then a group of ARGUS agents came in and took Iris into custody. The team of heroes headed out to return to the hall of justice. It was outside that Caitlin first saw the former Earth-2 Killer Frost.
"Surprised to see that I survived Caity?" asked Danielle
"Harry told me you didn't die. Just not how you live through getting stabbed with your own icicle." Said Caitlin
"Laurel found me and pulled it out. I heal rather fast if there is nothing preventing it. Faster than the Flash there actually."
"Yeah seems we are more alike then we thought. Except my powers are a result of my dad doing an experiment on me as a kid."
"Wow and I thought my parents sucked. By the way I am sorry for trying to kill you."
"I forgive you. So uh what name do you use? I mean it would be really confusing if we are both called Caitlin."
"Danielle, except if I go out to be a hero. Then it's Ice Storm."
Caitlin just nodded.
"So any ideas on how we explain that we look the same?" asked Danielle
"The two best options are that we are twins separated at birth or lookalike cousins."
"Think your mom will get on board with us being twins separated at birth?" asked Danielle
"Yeah. She and I have gotten a little closer and she isn't as cold as she use to be. Through she still isn't the warmest person."
Danielle nodded. Barry wrapped an arm around Caitlin pulling her close to him. Danielle felt warm arms wrap around her and leaned against her husband.

It was a day after the raid to get Lex and Iris that Caitlin and Barry found Cisco tinkering with some gadget.
"Hey Cisco, we need a favor." Said Caitlin
"On the bench there you will find a breach device already programed to take you to your mom's hide out. Just make sure Barbara let's her know you are coming if you haven't already." Said Cisco
"Thanks Cisco." Said Barry picking it up.
"No problem."
Barry and Caitlin headed out of Cisco's workroom and to the command center where Barbara was working on a computer. Felicity was on another while talking over coms to someone.
"Just a hold up at a bank in Keystone. Ralph is handling it." Said Barbara
"That's fine. Barbara, uh do you think you can let my mom that Barry and I are coming?" asked Caitlin
"Already did. I told her you would be coming in the next couple days Caitlin."
"Thanks. Oh call Singh and tell him to let me know when the rally is and I will show up."
"Will do."
"Make sure he knows Flash will most likely be with me."
"I think the chief already knows that. But I will let him know."
Barry and Caitlin left the command center and ran into Thea and Roy in the hall. Roy was on churches and Thea was using a cane and limping. Caitlin bit her lip seeing the pain she had put the two through.
"Roy, Thea I am so sorry for hurting you so bad." Said Caitlin
Thea took Caitlin's hand and squeezed it.
"It's ok. I know you didn't want to hurt us. But you had to try to make that bitch believe she had some control over you." Said Thea
"Yeah, I mean you only broke my knee with that kick. You got to teach me how to kick like that once I heal up. Oliver shot me with an arrow once." Said Roy
"What was it with Oliver shooting people on his side with those damn arrows. When my powers first started to develop and had control issues, I had a nightmare that Oliver told me I had failed this city and he shoot me. Not fatally of course but enough in make it so I could be thrown in the a pipeline cell." Said Caitlin
"If he had to shoot you Caitlin, my brother would have hated it. He was actually a little scared of you even before your powers." Said Thea
Caitlin smiled at the thought of Oliver Queen scared of her.
"Thea, we should get to our room. We don't want the doc to yell at us again." Said Roy
"You're right. Kate Kane's stepsister is scary when she is mad." Said Thea
Caitlin shook her head having met Mary Hamilton a couple of times. The young social media queen turned doctor was actually a lot tougher than anyone expected. She had once run an illegal underground medical clinic in Gotham while still in medical school.
"You haven't met Kate Kane's stepsister yet have you?" asked Caitlin
"No."
"She makes me in doctor mode look sweet and loving."
"Ok."
They headed into the main hall to open the breach to the Tannhouser black site that Caitlin's mom was hiding out in.
