WE'RE OVER HALFWAY DONE WITH THIS STORY OMG... I know that its not that huge of a deal but guys this might be my favorite story. I've had so much fun writing it, and so much fun reading the ever-positive feedback! and plus it makes me smile since I'm sick and not feeling good. :)

And also, I wanna thank Write-To-You again - she requested this story, and has given me a chance to experience something truly incredible - a developing Snowbarry/FlashFrost fluff story. GUYS SERIOUSLY GO CHECK HER OUT SHE'S THE BEST. :D

Anyway, hope you all enjoy this chapter! :D

Barry sat down at the center lab computer, completely blank in his head - truth be told, he still hadn't fully gotten over what the heck had gone on when he and Oliver had switched places in history.

Now, he was able to relax, and just enjoy some time to himself... well, himself and his daughter, who currently sat across from him.

"Dad, I've been noticing you've been spending a lot more time with Caitlin," Nora said, smiling.

"I... I guess I have," Barry said, also smiling.

"Well, I just wanted to say, that makes me happy," Nora said. "I was really hoping you two would!"

"I'm glad I could make that hope become reality," Barry said. "And I guess I've also been bonding with Frost, too..."

"Ooh, she's so cool," Nora giggled. "Sorry about the bad pun..."

"Its fine," Barry laughed. "Cait's had her fair share of bad puns as of late, so I guess she's rubbing off on you."

"Hehe, I have no problem with that!" Nora giggled again.

Suddenly, Caitlin proceeded to walk in. "Did I hear my name being tossed around?"

"Yeah, we were talking about your recent bad pun spree," Barry chuckled.

"Ah! Excuse you," Caitlin said, faking her offense, "I'll have you know that my puns are garbage, at best!"

"Oh really? Is that so?" Barry asked, raising an eyebrow.

Nora was giggling almost non-stop from her spot in the corner - she loved seeing her dad and auntie play fight. It was quite possibly the cutest thing she had ever seen.

Barry then got up, and casually hugged Caitlin. Like it was something they did everyday...

Caitlin's joyous laughter might have confirmed this...

Nora, meanwhile, just let the two have their precious moment... she was so happy that they were spending more time together.

"Nora, would you like to go eat with us later this week?" Caitlin asked. "We're going to a restaurant that just opened this Saturday, and we figured we'd invite you."

"Aww, of course! That sounds schway!" Nora smiled. "Is 'we' the two of you?"

"Cisco's coming too," Barry said, "and we have yet to invite Sherloque."

"He'll probably say yes," Nora said. "After Thanksgiving he rarely says no to any invites anymore."

"That's a good thing," Caitlin smiled. "I'm glad he's getting more involved."

"Me too," Barry said. "Its good to have the whole team coming closer as a whole... and I'm glad we're getting closer too."

"Aww," Caitlin blushed.

"This is hella cute," Frost giggled from inside her head. "You all need to have more discussions. They always result in the best outcomes."

"They do," Caitlin smiled. "Oh, forgot to say, Frost is also gonna be tagging along on Saturday!"

"Fine by me," Barry smiled. He had grown to really like Frost lately - it wasn't that he ever disliked her, but every day she grew more and more pleasant to be around. And that made him very happy.

"Uh, hey, guys!" Cisco said, running in. "We got a lead on where Cicada is!"

"Great," Nora said, popping her knuckles. "I've been waiting to get a few hits in on that guy."

"So have I," said Caitlin, who had just transformed into Frost. Then, she looked at Barry. "Ready to go kick some ass, sweetie?"

"Always," Barry chuckled.

Inwardly, it made him a little shy whenever Frost called him "sweetie" - it made his heart flutter in a way that... well, he couldn't exactly describe how it was.

But it definitely made him smile.

Once the four vigilantes had made their way over to Cicada's location, they felt extremely ready - the four of them could do anything when they worked together.

"Seems awfully quiet," Frost observed.

"Well, we've learned that means nothing in the grand scheme of things," said Cisco.

"Stay alert," Barry said. "He could be anywhere..."

Suddenly, they heard heavy breathing - and three of them felt their powers slowly dampening.

"He's near," Nora said.

And then, the meta-human Jack The Ripper rounded the hallway corner, and showed himself to the team of heroes.

"Hey there, cricket freak," said Frost. "I still haven't gotten my dance..."

"Too bad you'll never get it," Cicada said.

Barry, however, noticed something... odd. When Cicada was threatened by Frost, his voice seemed to tremble. Was it fear that now, he would have to go up against an actual meta? Had he seen into the future; a future where Frost would be his defeat?

Or was it just because Frost was the coolest? (I'm sorry lol)

Either way, he didn't really mind.

"You all are going to die today," he growled. "My vengeance will end with you."

"Then its too bad we're a tough batch of cookies," Nora said. "You'll have to do a lot of work to kill us."

"Maybe so," Cicada growled. "But I'll do whatever it takes."

Barry and Nora then ran at Cicada at their top normal speed, and engaged in hand-to-hand combat with the killer. Cisco screamed, also charging into battle after telling Frost to stand down and wait until they could get the dagger out of his hands.

She wasn't too happy with these orders, but complied nonetheless.

Anyway, Barry was actually managing to get a few hits in on Cicada - but he was able to quickly retaliate, and gave Barry a solid punch to the jaw.

"Oh, I know he didn't just hit my baby," Frost growled, taking a step forward.

"Calm down, Frosty! Remember what Cisco said!" Caitlin urged.

"Yeah, but I'm not letting my man get hurt again," Frost said, now lunging at Cicada at an incredible speed.

Caitlin sighed - as much as she hated seeing Barry get hurt, and wanted to get her own revenge on Cicada, she knew that this probably wasn't going to be Frost's finest moment...

And she was right.

Cicada turned around, and right before she could get a punch in, he hit her right in the stomach - Frost was instantly sent back, and she coughed violently.

"Finally," he growled.

Then, he tried to stab her with his dagger - she was able to block this attack, but he swung his fist at her. She also blocked this, but he was certainly putting up a challenge. Finally, she had gotten her dance, but it wasn't any old routine.

This was far more challenging.

Cisco and Nora had been knocked down to the ground, near helpless since a few minutes ago; Barry, however, still had some fight left in him.

He charged at Cicada, but he managed to throw him down to the floor, before punching Frost in the stomach again.

Then, he grabbed her by her waist, and hoisted her onto his shoulder. "Let's see how well you do without your queen, Flash..."

"NO!" he screamed, running.

"Barry!" Frost called out, "I LOV-"

But before she could finish her statement... Cicada had already shot off into the night sky.

He was gone.

And Frost along with him.

Barry looked up, helpless as the two blasted off into the sky... he then fell to the ground, and screamed angrily as he pounded his fist down on the floor.

He would get Caitlin and Frost back.

No matter what.

Cicada had just made a big mistake...

AAAAAAHHHH FROST HAS BEEN TAKEN! :O :O :O But don't worry... Barry, and a very special guest, will make Cicada dearly regret that choice... ;)

Honestly, next chapter is probably gonna be my favorite, and then the finale afterwards! PLEASE let me know what you thought of this chapter! I love hearing your all's feedback :D Until next time, see you guys soon!
