The final battle is approaching, who will win?
Pocket Dimension:
Gold Drive and Mach were in a furious fight as DeVoe had just destroyed Chase. Everyone was broken as Chase had sacrificed his life to save their lives, Ralph was just as furious as he was taking his anger out on Gold Drive.
"Unbelievable! You shouldn't have any power left!" DeVoe shouted, Mach then punched DeVoe into a wall then picked up Chase's Signal Bike.
"Don't say stupid things like that!" Ralph shouted as he looked up at Gold Drive. "Can't you see the burning power of rage overflowing from my body?" Ralph asked as he stood up straight and smacked his chest. "You have done many unforgivable sins! You used Metahumans to get your powers, used your wife to make your plans a reality and tried to break us apart!" Ralph bellowed as everyone looked at the broken hero who was holding Chase's Signal Bike. "But the most unforgivable sin you committed was… killing my buddy!" Ralph screamed as he held up Chase's bike whilst opening up his driver. "Chase, let's fight together one more time." Ralph whispered as he tossed out his Signal Bike then inserted Chase's.
"Signal Bike!" Everyone watched as they didn't think that Ralph's idea was going to work as he smacked down the driver. "Rider! Chaser!" Mach's body started to glow purple then the bottom half of his body changed; he was covering in Chaser's armor which was also on his arms and hands.
(Insert Kamen Rider's Mach theme: Full Throttle)
"What is that form?" Gold Drive asked as he pointed at Mach, everyone else was just as surprised as DeVoe was. Mach then smacked the button on his driver four times which made his entire gold purple.
"Zoom Chaser!" Chaser Mach then ran at full speed and started fighting Gold Drive, they were now equally powered. Everyone was watching as Ralph was moving even faster than Type Formula as he was teleporting and attacking. Gold Drive's visor then lit up which caused both Mach and Chaser's weapons to fly into his hands; he shot the Zenrin Shooter in every direction until Chaser Mach froze, DeVoe was about to slash Ralph but Chase's bike flashed purple which broke him free.
"Give them back! Those belong to us!" Ralph shouted as he pointed the weapons, he jumped and punched DeVoe in the head which caused him to drop the Shooter. Ralph then picked it up and used the wheel to slashed Gold Drive which caused him to drop Chase's axe, Ralph then picked that up and held it with one hand. Chaser Mach first slashed Gold Drive horizontally with the Shingou Axe then vertically with the Zenrin Shooter, followed by a kick to the chest which sent Gold Drive flying into a wall.
"You'll pay for that!" Gold Drive shouted as he pressed the red button on his dark brace, Ralph nodded as he opened up his Driver and hit the top button.
"Hissatsu!" Ralph placed one foot behind him then smacked down the driver. "Full Throttle! Chaser!" Ralph started glowing purple while DeVoe started glowing red, the pair jumped as high as they could then flew towards each other until their kicks collided. Whilst Ralph's kick was becoming stronger, a hologram of Chase in his rider form appeared behind and together, they destroyed Gold Drive and the only thing that was left was a destroyed driver.
"He did it!" Cisco shouted and everyone nodded as Ralph turned around, his driver started to release some purple sparks until the Chaser Mach form shattered and Ralph collapsed.
"Gold Drive is destroyed, where's Barry?" Joe shouted and at that moment, a yellow portal opened up and out flew Barry in his Deadheat form.
"Barry!" Caitlin shouted, she got up and ran over to Barry. She removed Shift Deadheat which caused him to power down, she could see that he was badly beaten but alive.
"What happened?" Barry asked as he held his chest in pain, Caitlin helped him sit up and Barry could see the destruction.
"DeVoe is gone but Chase is gone," Caitlin answered and the last part surprised both Barry and Krim. "He sacrificed his life to save all of us." Caitlin explained, the news shocked Barry and Krim because Chase was their friend. Krim looked across the room to see Ralph lying on the floor with Marlize and Joe checking on him.
"Let's leave, I'll set this place on a self destruct." Marlize told everyone as she walked over to the main computer and set a timer. Cisco and Caitlin decided to pick up all the parts from Chase's Cybernetic body as they wanted to try and bring him back. "It's ready, time to leave." Marlize told them then she used her tablet to take everyone back to the real world but they didn't know that they had brought along an extra passenger.
S.T.A.R Labs:
As soon as the team got back, Cisco ran towards the computers and scanned the entire city while Barry and Ralph sat down and Caitlin checked Cecile's vital.s
"There's no Dark Matter anywhere in the city." Cisco told everyone and they were all happy apart from Ralph. "Hey, we'll find a way to bring Chase back." Cisco shouted, Ralph smiled then Marlize spoke.
"If it's okay, I would like to help," Marlize told the team which surprised them. "I have committed a lot of sins and I want to do whatever I can to make up for them." Barry stood up and held out his hand.
"Thank you." Barry smiled, Marlize smiled then she shook Barry's hand until they heard Cecile tapping on the bed.
"Guys, my water just broke." Cecile told them, everyone looked at each other then Caitlin spoke.
"Get her to the med bay. Quickly." Caitlin told Joe then he held Cecile walk to the med bay, everyone then went with them but when they left: the Thinker's chair started glowing yellow.
Cortex:
Everyone was hard at work doing their roles: Caitlin was with Joe and Cecile with Mad Doctor providing assistance. Cisco, Barry and Ralph were scanning the city to see if the city's power was back on and Krim was performing checks on the Tridoron.
"The power's back on everywhere." Ralph sighed which made everyone a bit relieved. "Now the world can get back to normal. But for us, it's just another normal day." Ralph tried to joke to try and cheer everyone up, Barry smiled then patted his friend on the shoulder.
"Hey, Chase would've been proud of you." Barry told him which made Ralph smile, they looked at Harry who was looking around like he was confused. "Maybe Marlize can help Harry restore his brain." Barry suggested then all the screens changed to purple as the Thinker's chair appeared in front of them with Gold Drive in the seat.
"Another use of Mister Deacon's powers; technological regenation." Gold Drive taunted them, Barry and Ralph were hating seeing DeVoe's gold form and everyone was feeling the same way. "I promise you that the Enlightenment will come for you, Marlize. Remember; I thought of every situation." Gold Drive leant forward and looked into his wife's eyes, Marlize took a few steps forwards as a tear rolled down her face.
"Goodbye… my love." Marlize told the hologram, she walked behind the chair then ripped out the power core which made the hologram of Gold Drive fade away. The computer's returned back to normal followed by several beeps. "What's going on now?" Marlize as she walked over to the central console and looked at the monitors with the others.
"Sally is in a decaying orbit!" Cisco shouted as he looked up at the team, he showed the problem on the other monitors. "Seems like DeVoe had a dead man's switch built in when Marlize deactivated him." Cisco told them, Barry looked at Krim then picked him up.
"Look! Clifford increased its mass by a thousand fold." Marlize told them then did a scan of the blast radius. "With its current mass, it could take out half the city or even more." Marlize told them, Ralph picked up his driver and Shift Deadheat.
"Me and Cisco will clear the impact zone, Marlize will spread the word to everyone," Ralph told them and they nodded. "Barry, can you and Krim destroy that satellite?" Ralph asked and Barry nodded as he put Krim on who had tossed his partner Shift Tridoron.
"Let's go for our final ride!" Krim shouted then everyone ran off to do their roles in saving Central City.
City streets:
Vibe was back thanks to Gypsy and was helping Mach clear people away. Mach was shooting the parts into smaller pieces while Vibe breached them away from the city. Barry had arrived outside the CCPD and was about to activate Shift Tridoron when he heard footsteps running towards him.
"Allen? What are you doing?" Barry turned around to see that it was Captain Singh. "You're…!" Singh was surprised as he looked at Barry, he nodded then shifted up the Shift Car as Tridoron raced towards him.
"Drive: Type Tridoron!" Barry transformed into Drive Type Tridoron then nodded at his police captain as he ran into action.
"Barry, let's hit that with the finisher!" Krim shouted as Barry jumped and activated the finisher while he flew towards the huge remaining part of the satellite.
"Hissatsu! Full Throttle! Tridoron!" Barry flew and hit the satellite but he had also died in the explosion. Then something happened: time reversed to the point before Barry jumped.
"Krim, can we increase the power by overloaded Shift Tridoron?" Barry asked which made Krim's screen light up with a normal face.
"Let's try it!" Krim shouted so Barry turned the key on the Drive Driver, he then pressed the Tire Kakimazel several times and shifted up Shift Tridoron three times followed by the activation button.
"Come On! Come On! Come On! Come On! Come On! Come On! Come On! Tire Kaki-Kaki-Kakimazel! Fire all engine!" Barry extended out his left arm then all the Shift Cars' tires flew out and around until their powers merged with the Tridoron tire. "Hissatsu! Full Throttle! Tridoron!" Drive started to glow rainbow colours which the entire city could see, he then started running and jumped high over the satellite.
"Time for the end, my friend." Barry mumbled as he flew towards the incoming satellite and aimed his kick at the centre. But what either Barry and Krim knew was that there was black and blue figure who had arrived and was flying behind them. Barry had hit the center of the satellite while the unknown figure and hit close behind him.
"He did it!" Ralph sighed, he reached behind him and took out Chase's Signal Bike. "Chase, we did it." Ralph smiled under his helmet as Drive landed in the middle of street with everyone cheering for him and the other heroes.
S.T.A.R Labs:
The heroes ran into the Cortex as Barry and Ralph powered down just as Caitlin ran in and hugged Barry. Ralph smiled at the pair then everyone looked at the medical bay when they heard the sound of a baby crying: Cecile had given birth.
"Happy ending at the end," Krim smiled as he looked at everyone from the table. "Marlize, is there something on your mind?" Krim asked as he looked at the engineering, Marlize nodded then took a small box and handed it to Cisco.
"This will restore your friend's mind. I was working on it while you were out saving everyone," Marlize explained, they all nodded at her. "I have a lot of sins to correct so let this be the first sin to wipe away." Marlize told everyone, Barry smiled then walked over to her.
"Thank you, Marlize. And if you want to, you could help us and we could help you." Barry told her, Marlize nodded. "Krim said he could use a partner in helping create technology to better the lives of those who had nothing and heal people around the world." Barry told her and Krim smiled.
"It would be a pleasure to work alongside you, Marlize." Krim spoke and he showed a smile on his screen. Marlize nodded then she held out her hand so Krim used the belt strap to shake her hand.
"I'm looking forward to helping however I can." Marlize told them which made the team happy. "I'll help you restore Mister Well's brain." Marlize told Cisco then the two engineers walked off with Ralph, leaving Barry with Krim and Caitlin. Barry smiled then changed to an expression that Krim knew every well.
"Barry, what's wrong?" Krim asked as he was concerned, Barry turned around and looked at Krim and Caitlin.
"The satellite, it wasn't just us that took it down. There was someone else." Barry told them which surprised them.
"Who? Who was it?" Caitlin asked as she was concerned, Barry shook his head as he looked at Caitlin and Krim.
"I don't know but it looked like Drive." Barry told which took the two off guard: there was another person who was Drive and they helped destroy the satellite. Marlize walked into the Cortex and knocked on the door flame.
"We're about to restore Mister Well's brain." Marlize told them so they walked with Marlize towards the workshop.
Workshop:
When the team walked into the workshop, they saw Cisco adjusting Harry's Thinking Cap and Marlize walked towards the computers to watch Harry's progress. Cisco stepped back and nodded at Marlize who activated the system, everyone watched as a visor on the Thinking Cap showed Harry a bunch of numbers, letters and symbols. It was going well until the cap started to malfunction and caused Harry to scream in pain, so Cisco ran towards Harry to try and calm him down while Marlize turned off the programme.
"Is he okay?" Barry asked as he was concerned about his friend, Marlize did a scan through the computer to see.
"His vitals are stable." Marlize told them then she looked up at Harry. "The programmes completed, it should've worked!" Marlize told them, Cisco looked at his friend as he was concerned as Harry was staring at the floor.
"Hey Harry, are you okay?" Cisco asked, Harry slowly looked up at Cisco and placed a hand on top of his which was on Harry's shoulder.
"Don't worry. You've been, and always will be, my friend." Harry spoke as he stood up and looked at Cisco. Cisco smiled then Harry chuckled: the programme had successfully two hugged each other while the others stood back and smiled as they were happy.
"I can't believe it!" Cisco exclaimed as he and Harry stepped while still laughing. "It's not everyday you translate symbols into binary programme polynomials." Cisco chuckled as did Harry but he shook his head.
"I don't know what that means." Harry chuckled as did Cisco when he gave Harry a gentle punch to his shoulder.
"Of course you do." Cisco laughed but Harry shook his head which surprised everyone.
"I actually don't know what that means." Harry told Cisco as he was still laughing. "I think some… some short circuit's been fired up here, but it's fine." Harry told his friend which surprised Cisco.
"What are you talking about?" Cisco asked as he didn't understand what Harry was talking about.
"I mean, I just don't understand the pol the thing you said," Harry paused as he looked at his friends then back at Cisco. "But it's okay." Harry promised but then he looked at Cisco and he was disappointed.
"You said it would work." Cisco told Marlize who nodded then looked at Harry who was smiling.
"It did work." Marlize promised the engineer then she walked towards Harry then he spoke with his friend.
"Ramon, I'm back! I'm here!" Harry exclaimed as he was smiling. "I mean, I'm a little more average than I used to be up here, but I'm here!" Harry smiled as he was happy to be back and so was everyone else.
"Harry, if we've learnt anything about you; there's nothing average about you." Barry told him, Harry nodded and he smiled at Barry. "And seven PhDs." Barry reminded him, Harry smiled then looked at his friends.
"Used to." Harry started to chuckle again but Cisco wasn't happy, Marlize placed a hand on Cisco's shoulder.
"We've brought him back. You've saved him." Marlize told him, Cisco knew that she was right. "You brought what matters most to all of us." Marlize told him, Cisco turned and looked at Marlize who was smiling.
"She's right, Ramon." Harry spoke then Cisco turned around and looked at Harry. "All my life, I've been defined by one thing: My IQ. But now, you've given me a balance: between my head and my heart. Thank you for the balance, Ramon." Harry thanked as he smiled at Cisco. "Now, I'm going to take this balance to my Earth." Harry told everyone then he walked towards the workshop door as everyone watched him leave.
"Harry, wait!" Caitlin called out which caused Harry to stop. "We've just got you back." Caitlin spoke as she was confused why Harry wanted to leave already.
"I know, Snow. But I have to see my daughter though." Harry told them with a smile, he turned around and looked at his family. "I mean, I may not have the intelligence to get her seven PhDs but I can see one thing clearly: Family matters." Harry told them and they all smiled, even Krim.
"Well, we're family too." Cisco spoke then he looked at Marlize. "That includes you too." Cisco smiled, Marlize was surprised but then smiled.
"Heck yeah, you are." Harry smiled as he looked at everyone. "Each and every one of you." Everyone was smiling at Harry then they grouped up into one huge hug which also included Krim and Marlize. "I miss you all." Harry told them and they were going to miss Harry.
West house:
Few hours later, everyone was at the West House to celebrate the birth of Joe and Cecile's baby girl. Krim was also there in his belt form and all the Shift Cars were there to help too which made things easier, Iris and Barry spoke a little bit and agreed to be friends. They had just finished decorating when the Justice Hunter, Mad Doctor and Fire Braver Shift Cars flew in then opened the door for Joe and Cecile.
"There she is." Caitlin exclaimed as she looked at the baby in the car seat, everyone walked over and Barry carried Krim over for him to see. "She's beautiful, Joe." Caitlin complimented and Joe smiled as he looked at Cecile.
"Just like her mother." Joe complimented and it made Cecile blush. Several playing cards then slowly hovered in carrying glasses of champagne, everyone took a glass each and looked at the kitchen to see the Shift Cars helping.
"Thanks, Dream Vegas!" Cecile thanked and Vegas replied by jumping up and down whilst honking which sounded like rattling coins. "What did he say?" Cecile asked, Krim's face smiled as he looked at Cecile.
"He said if you need money for the baby, he'll help." Krim translated which made Joe and Cecile smile. "Now, a toast!" Krim exclaimed cheerfully and everyone nodded then a yellow blur raced in with a glass: it was Wally.
"You think I'm going to miss my new baby sister's first party?" Wally asked with a smile which made Joe happy then he hugged his son.
"A toast to the newest member of our team…" Barry started then he looked at Cecile and waited for her to reveal the baby's name.
"Jenna Marie West." Cecile revealed with a smile, everyone smiled then they tapped their glasses together.
"Welcome to the family, Jenna." Barry welcomed then everyone took a slip from the champagne. "Now, bring in the cake." Barry smiled as he looked at Krim and he smiled as he honked his horn, Hooking Wrecker who was towing the cake with Max Flare and Deco Traveller alongside. "Finish the decorations." Barry told Flare and Vegas, they jumped then Deco Traveller jumped and decorated the cake with pink writing reading: Welcome Jenna Marie West. Max Flare then jumped up and lit a single candle which impressed the whole team.
"Who made the cake?" Cecile asked, Barry whistled then all the Shift Cars flew in and landed on the coffee table. "They did?" Cecile asked and Barry nodded.
"Don't worry, I tasted a sample they made and trust me; you'll love it." Barry promised then he nodded at Midnight Shadow who cut the cake into seven equal pieces.
Later:
The celebration was underway with Cecile talking and cuddling Jenna, Barry was talking to Joe and Wally while Ralph and Cisco were talking quietly about Chase. Everyone then heard knocking on the front door so Barry walked over to answer it and saw a short brunette adult wearing a white t-shirt, a blue leather jacket and black trousers.
"Hi" The woman spoke as she looked at Barry. "We need to talk." Barry was surprised then the woman walked into the house. "Wow! This house is bitchin'!" The woman exclaimed which surprised everyone as they heard Barry say those words when he came out the Speedforce.
"You're the one who spilt coffee over me and Harry at Jitters." Caitlin pointed out and the woman nodded. "And the server and Barry and Iris' wedding." Caitlin remembered and Barry nodded.
"Yeah, you are." Barry remembered as well then he noticed the jacket. "And the jacket, it works similar to the one Caitlin wore. Remember?" Barry asked as he looked at Caitlin, she nodded as she walked over and had a closer look.
"It does." Then Caitlin spotted something on the jacket that she had seen on her's. "There's a snowflake here." Caitlin told Barry as she pointed on the shoulder. "Mine's the only one with that. I know because Killer Frost did that when she was bored one day." Caitlin admitted which made the mystery girl smile a little.
"You never told us your name, what is it?" Barry asked as he was puzzled about who the girl was. She was looking nervous, she took a deep breath then looked at Barry and Caitlin.
"I'm Nora; Nora Snow-Allen." Nora introduced herself which surprised everyone but what surprised everyone more was when she heard up her left arm and pulled up the sleeve to reveal the Shift Brace. "I'm from the future and I need your help." Nora told everyone which surprised them as they had just met someone who said they were the daughter of Barry and Caitlin and he was the future Kamen Rider Drive.
And this is the end of Everything Changes but don't worry, the story will continue in SURPRISE FUTURE! How did you find the story? And how was the cliffhanger? And since this was the last chapter, I decided to make it longer than the previous ones.
See you all next time!
