Clyde Mardon was currently holed up in a farmhouse outside Central City preparing to kill Joe and Eddie when suddenly, they heard something and he turned to see 2 figures, both in red, one man and one woman, standing behind him.
"Who are you?" Mardon asked.
"Your worst nightmare." the woman said, her voice disguised.
"You free Joe and Eddie, and I'll get Mardon." the man said.
"Got it." the woman said.
"And what should I call you?" Clyde asked.
"Call me, the Flash." the man said as he ran as superspeed and punched him.
"So, you're like me." Mardon said, but the Flash shook his head.
"I'm nothing like you." Flash assured him.
"Really, well you might be fast, but let's see if you can outrun the wind." Mardon said, and just like before, he generated a massive tornado that tore the barn apart.
"Get them out of here." Flash called to his partner, who nodded and grabbed Joe and Eddie and sped off.
"Now, to deal with you." Flash said as he ran in the opposite direction of the tornado.
"You guys hearing me?" Flash asked into his comms.
"Loud and clear. I can't believe this, it looks like you're actually going faster than the wind." Wells said and Flash silently cursed himself for running too fast.
"It's probably just his adrenaline giving him an extra burst of speed." he heard Caitlin say over the comms and Flash could hear something different about her voice. Something familiar.
"Whatever case, keep going, it's working." Cisco said as the Flash unraveled the tornado.
"You can't stop God that easily." Mardon said as he pulled out a gun to shoot the Flash, only to be punched out by his partner.
"I had that Iris." Flash said.
"I know. And by the way, the name is Speedstress." Iris said with a grin.
"Speedstress. Female speedster. Catchy." Flash said.
"I know. But where are we going to put Mardon, since it's not like Iron Heights can handle him. Not yet anyways." Speedstress said.
"Hopefully Dr. Wells can figure something else." Flash said as he flung Mardon over his shoulder and they sped off.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Cisco asked Caitlin as he watched her work on something.
"After Barry and Iris left, I began thinking about how exactly they'd contain Mardon, since last time I checked, Iron Heights wasn't built to contain superpowers." Caitlin said as she showed Cisco what she'd been working on.
"Whoa, this is cool. A way to convert the Pipeline into a prison." Cisco said as Dr. Wells rolled up to them and Caitlin had to resist the urge to go frosty on him. (If that hasn't tipped you off yet, than you'll just have to wait until Barry and Iris speak to her in private).
"I agree and after Caitlin told me about her idea earlier, I got to work repurposing the cavities in the pipeline into a containment cells and I have one all set for Mardon." Wells said.
"Good." Iris said as she sped in.
"So, Speedstress, huh?" Cisco asked, looking at Iris.
"What can I say, it's catchy." Iris said, shrugging as Barry sped in.
"Just got Mardon all situated into his new room." Barry said.
"Efficiently done Mr. Allen. Though I have to say the speed you ran out today was quite impressive." Wells said.
"Like Caitlin said, it was adrenaline. Probably won't happen again for awhile." Barry said.
"Maybe." Wells didn't look convinced, but he left the nonetheless, Cisco right behind him.
"You need to be more careful Barry. You're lucky I was able to cover for you this time." Caitlin said.
"Am I talking to Caitlin or Killer Frost?" Barry asked, needing to have his suspicions confirmed.
"Killer Frost doesn't exist on this earth. While I may have her powers, I'm in control." Caitlin said as Iris rushed up to hug her.
"Caitlin, it's really you, from Earth One?" Iris asked and Caitlin nodded.
"It's me, powers and all." Caitlin said.
"Nice. And as much as I want to hear about how that happened, Iris and I were in the middle of a date when you called." Barry said.
"I know, remember, I still have all the memories of my Earth 66 counterpart. Go, I'll tell you guys tomorrow." Caitlin said.
"Great, and Cait, if I were you, I'd start looking into the burning man now, since you already know about Ronnie, now you just have to find him." Barry said.
"Already working on that." Caitlin said as the 2 speedsters left.
"Still can't believe that Iris is a speedster on this earth." Caitlin said under her breath
