Okay, again my apologies for the long wait. I've ben crazy busy for the past week. I'll try and get the next chapter out a bit sooner but i can't promise anything.
The day was going like normal, Barry had just come back from the first bee attack.
The one thing that was different was that Barry wasn't helping Joe investigating Dr. Wells like last time.
"Hey guys." Barry said happily as he walked into the cortex.
He quickly noticed something was different then usual. "Where is Cisco?" He asked.
"He said he needed to help Joe with something." Caitlin said.
That's when Barry realized that Cisco was probably helping Joe with Dr. Wells. "Well that's new." He thought.
"Anyways we got a new case, a woman was stung to death, by bees." He said.
"Bees? How can bees kill a person?" Dr. Wells asked.
"Well they're not actually bees, they're miniature drones." Barry explained.
"Promise me you'll be careful when we take em down." Caitlin pleaded after she noticed the pictures of the first victim.
"I'm pretty sure I can outrun a bee." Barry joked.
"Just don't run into a lake." A familiar voice sounded from the hallway.
"The bees will wait for you to come up for air and then sting you. Discovery channel, turns out there's a lot to discover."
"Felicity, what are you doing here?" Barry asked trying to look confused.
He was actually a little disappointed that she showed up since he could have gotten Brie Larvan early. But now he had to follow the script.
"Can you guys come outside for a sec?" She asked.
They went to greet Ray and called up Cisco to get over as soon as possible.
"So I was hoping you could help me with my suit since you did a great job on Barry's." Ray asked with a grin.
"Hell yes." Cisco immediately replied.
"Uh, guys, we kind of have a lot going on already." Barry said. He didn't want to be rude but he didn't really want Felicity figuring out who he really is. He knew she would figure it out if she stayed for too long.
"I'm sure Caitlin and I will provide ample support, Barry." Dr. Wells stated.
"Ray, why don't you stay here and work on your suit while Barry and I run to Jitters for some java?" Felicity asked a little confused about Barry's weirdness.
"Okay spill." Felicity said as they sat down. "I've known you long enough to know when something is wrong with you."
With a deep breath Barry started. "It's just that I didn't want you to know about..." He sighed and thought about telling her again when he was thankfully interrupted by Eddie.
"Eddie, hey. Uh, you remember Felicity." He said relieved.
"Of course, great to see you." He replied but then began to stutter and try to ask about him lying to Iris.
"Felicity knows." Barry said.
"Oh wow. So everyone but Iris." Eddie said disappointed. "She know something it up and I don't know what to do."
"I have an idea. Why don't we all go for dinner tonight?" Felicity suggested.
"Sure, why not?" Eddie said and Barry nodded.
This is when Barry got a text saying there was another bee attack.
He made his way over to Folston tech but he was too late.
He tried to get out but couldn't shake the bees and got stung. He managed to run out to Joe before collapsing.
At the lab Caitlin noticed his vitals and knew something was wrong.
They got a call from Joe. "Guys, Barry doesn't have a pulse."
"Step away from him, there is a defibrillator in the suit." Cisco yelled panicking.
They tried to restart his heart but failed 2 times and Caitlin was staring at the screen in tears.
They tried one last time and it worked, Caitlin letting out a huge sigh of relief.
They got back to the lab and almost immediately Caitlin was by his side.
"I told you to be careful." She scolded.
They ran a few tests and Caitlin came back with good news. "The apitoxin is out of your body. Your levels are back to normal."
"Terrific. Now let's get ready for dinner." He said as he got up.
"Are you sure that's wise, Barry?" Dr. Wells asked.
Before anyone else could say anything else Barry cut in. "I'm fine, honestly. Let's go."
Caitlin relented and took of her lab coat. "Ray, Felicity, we'll see you guys at the restaurant okay?"
They both nodded and Barry swooped Caitlin up and sped off home.
Barry got ready and decided to wear the same suit as last time.
However when he saw Caitlin come out of the bathroom his brain shorted out, surrounding his head in a few flickers of lightning making Caitlin giggle.
"Are you okay?" She asked still laughing.
Barry snapped back to reality. "What? Yeah, I'm fine. You just look absolutely... wow."
Caitlin giggled once more. "Well thank you."
The dinner was going pretty much the same as last time and Barry went out to get some air.
Felicity followed him like last time. "Okay, what is going on with you?"
Barry sighed. "I'm not Barry. Well, the Barry you knew."
Felicity gave him a very confused look and urged him to continue.
"I'm from the future." He started explaining who he was and why he was here but he was cut off by Ray coming in.
"Hey guys. Things are getting a little intense here." Ray said.
"I'll tell you more later." Barry whispered.
They made their way back to the table to find Eddie and Iris arguing.
Caitlin meanwhile was sitting in silence at the side giving Barry a shocked look.
Iris stormed out of the restaurant and Eddie left soon after.
Barry got an alert on his phone. "Emergency at star labs."
"Go." Felicity said in a hurry and before she could blink Barry picked Caitlin up and flashed off.
At the lab Cisco was frantically running around trying to zap one of the bees while Wells was ready to start moving at super speed as he saw it.
Before that could happen however everything slowed down.
Barry came in with Caitlin in his arms looking rather surprised.
He put her down and she moved over to Cisco, waving her arms in front of him. She was till able to move in flashtime as she was still affected by Barry's speed.
Barry captured the bee and before slowing down, Wells looked impressed. "Nice trick mister Allen."
Later that evening Barry met up with Felicity to explain everything. To Barry's surprise, she took it quite well.
As they were talking, Barry got another text saying the the bees were going for Mercury labs.
He flashed them both aback to Star labs and got ready to fight Brie.
"Barry, you have to stop her, it's the only way to take out the drones." Dr. Wells said worried.
"What about Dr. McGee?" He asked.
"The defibrillator in your suit is broken. No way I'm letting you go out there again." Caitlin cut in abruptly.
"Bees can't penetrate my suit, I'll go." Ray spoke up.
They all nodded in agreement and got on their way.
The fight went pretty much the same as last time with Felicity hacking into the drones and Ray stopping those that went to Mercury labs.
As Barry was running back over to Star labs, Ray's voice sounded over the comms. "Cisco has been stung, he's going into shock."
In a second Barry was at the scene. "Hold on, back up." He said as he got down on his knees next to Cisco.
He used his speed to shock him in the hopes of restarting his heart. Like last time it worked first try.
"Impressive." Caitlin stated, astonished by Barry's abilities.
They went back to the lab to make sure everything was okay.
After the tests were run, Cisco pulled Barry aside for a moment.
"I know I should have said something but I've been talking to Joe about the man in yellow." Cisco whispered.
Barry didn't anticipate this at all and needed to find an excuse until he knew how to deal with this. "Oh alright, Uh, how about you come over to Joe's tomorrow and we'll talk about it. Right now I'm just exhausted."
"Yeah, no problem. I should probably get some rest too." He replied with a smile and made his way out.
Little bit of a cliffhanger at the end. The next chapter will pick up right after this one, well the morning after, this will be when everyman comes in. I still don't know whether to let Barry get knocked out again and everything goes pretty much like in the actual episode or not. Let me know what you think i should do. :D
