Part 47
Barry, Jesse and Wally came to a stop in front of the family of criminals. Frost and Firestorm arrived moments later.
"Seems we are short the shiny helmet Flash." Said James Jesse
"Sorry to disappoint you but the elder Flash is out of town on business. But we brought some friends who are in town visiting from Gotham City." Said Wally
Batman and Batwoman then dropped down from the roof they had been sitting on.
"You know the three of you are going back to prison." Said Kate
"Not a chance you winged rat." Said Axel
"I don't think you want to make either Batwoman or Batman angry." Said Barry
Axel pulled out what looked liked a water gun.
"Firestorm, and everyone else watch it. That is not going to be water is that gun." Said Frost
"Elsa is right. That gun my boy has is loaded with the finest acid in melting flesh off of bones." Said Zoey Clark aka Prank
"While Junior likes that nice acid shooter I like going the old fashion way of using bullets." Said James
He then pulled out a machine gun and began to fire. The heroes jumped out of the way. Dodging both bullets and acid. Frost slipped out from behind the car she hid behind and sent a blast of frost at the three criminals at the same time that Firestorm sent blasts of flaming plasma at their feet. The three speedsters then grabbed all the weapons they could find on them before going after the bombs. It didn't take them long to find and disarm all the bombs. They returned to the rest of the team.
"Yeah it only took us like five seconds to find and disarm your bombs. So why don't you three give up and you can get on to Iron Heights and think about all your bad choices in life." Said Barry
"That includes you fashion choices. I mean not even not even Gotham's current nutcase would be caught dead in any of that." Said Kate
"No need to be rude girly." Said James
"It's over." Said Barry
The seven heroes made short work of the three criminals. Once they were safely locked up in Iron Heights they headed back to Star Labs.
Iris walked into CCPD and right over to her dad and Eddie.
"So who were those Joker wannabees?" asked Iris
"James Jesse aka the Trickster is a convicted murderer from twenty five years ago. He killed a bunch of people with one of his tricks. I don't know the details of the trick though. He was stopped by now Senior Flash. Prank has been identified as Zoey Clark heir to the Clark toy company. She developed an obsession with the Trickster and she joined him as his cohort. She was deemed unfit to stand trial and was sent for psychological help. The junior Trickster is named Axel Walker and apparently the son of James Jesse and Zoey Clark. Not much else is known about him." Said Joe
"Now I heard that both Batman and that new Batwoman were seen helping our heroes."
"Yeah they were. No idea what they are doing here. But as long as they don't bring more trouble I don't really care."
Iris nodded and headed out to see if she could find out more about who these three criminals are.
"You do know that she is going to get herself into trouble." Said Eddie
"Trust me I know. But you and I both know you can't tell her to back off. But as long as she stays in the dark about Barry being the Flash and Wally being Kid Flash I am hoping she won't put herself in as much danger as she did in the last universe."
"I don't like keeping this from her though. I am afraid I might hurt our relationship by keeping this secret."
"Eddie, we are doing this to protect Iris. Just try to remember that."
"I will try."
"The Flash and his friends took down the Trickster family without much trouble." Said Death Watch
"That was predictable. No matter what Earth we are on the Trickster is not much of a challenge if you get rid of his toys."
"I knew that already. What is going on with Alchemy?"
"Unfortunately he is no longer a use to us. Flash got on to him."
"Maybe it is time I start to ruin the reputation of this Earth's Ice Queen." Said Crystal
"Kill Julian Albert. He should be leaving CCPD within the hour." Said Savitar
Crystal Frost grinned evilly and headed out to frame the resident Ice Queen for murder.
"You do know that the Flash is going to prove that Frost is not the one who killed your pawn." Said Death Watch
"True. But it is part of my plan. I normally go after Iris West to kill. But it will not have same impact on this Earth. This time I will kill Caitlin Snow. She is the woman my idiot doppelgänger married. So killing her will break him and then I will end him."
"You really think that the Flash is going to let you anywhere near his wife?"
"I am faster then he is. I have always been faster than every version of the Flash I have come across. Here is something you might not know when a speedster kills another speedster they can absorb that speedster's speed. That is why I am going to kill all the speedsters on this Earth. There are four known speedsters. The Reverse Flash has been defeated and sent to the Phantom Zone. They took Zoom's powers from him. While I am sure there maybe other speedsters waiting to make their appearance they aren't known to me."
"Give me a way to find them and I will."
"If they don't revel themselves you won't be able to find them."
Death Watch narrowed her eyes at the evil speedster. Not that she cared what he wanted to do. He could kill whoever he wants so could the ice witch. She was just here to help anyway she could.
