The timeless place is my least favorite non-place, I decide. I can't even describe what it's like as I'm there. I had hoped it would be somewhat dark and removed from time, like Jay's lair. But this place was simply wrong.

"Cisco?" I call. "Cisco? Barry! Jay! Cisco!"

There are no replies.

Then there's a skull and fluttering cloth in front of me. I don't scream, but I slip into another panicky state.

Just behind the wraith is Cisco. He looks more confused than terrified. Has any time passed for him? For us? What if when I return, a decade has passed? A century? I have nothing to lose, but Cisco and Barry have everything.

"Let him go," I say to the wraith. There is no shake to my voice. I've commanded Jay too many times to let fright show.

"Time remnant," mumbles Cisco. "Kat, he keeps saying Time Remnant. It's just..." He holds his hands on either side of his head. "Buzzing in my brain."

"Cisco, we're here to rescue you," I say. I try to step past the wraith and take Cisco's hand, but the wraith blocks my path. It doesn't seem violent. But why is it guarding Cisco?

"Rescue me?" Cisco looks up at me, confusion growing.

"It's been days, Cisco," I say. "We need to leave. But this wraith won't let you."

"Time remnant. Why do you keep saying that?" Cisco demands of the wraith.

I look at the floating skull.

"Jay?" I whisper.

Familiar cold.

"They made you one of them," I whisper. I reach out to touch his skull.

"Katrine, no! Don't do it!"

I turn. Barry is behind me, in his red suit and looking very frightened.

"Okay, we need to go. Now," Barry says.

Cisco takes a step forward. "Bro, I'm tryin'. But this guy doesn't want me to leave."

"It's Jay," I say, feeling sick. "Hunter."

"No way," Cisco breathes. Barry only looks more agitated.

"Katrine, tell him to let Cisco go," Barry urges.

I face Jay. "You're telling Cisco 'time remnant'?" The wraith seems to nod, but I can't really tell. "Okay. Okay, I understand," I lie. "Please, let him go. I can come back for you."

"Time remnant," Cisco says again. "He's like, screaming now."

"I understand!"

And then we're back in S.T.A.R. Labs, an anxious Caitlin and Wells watching.

"That was tri-i-ippy," Cisco says. "How much time passed? I swear, Kat and I were gone two minutes tops."

"Why didn't you come right back?" Caitlin asks. I know she's dying to give us-well, Barry and Cisco-checkups.

"One Time Wraith was keeping Cisco behind," Barry says. "Guys, Katrine thinks it was Hunter."

"Why?" Wells demands.

I know he's asking why I thought it was Jay, but I hace more pressing issues.

"He kept telling Cisco 'time remnant'," I say. "Like it was a message for me."

"Maybe his mind is... I dunno, trapped in the final momemts? He can only obsess about the fact that I made one to defeat him?" Barry suggests.

"That," says Wells. "Is one possibility."

I wonder. What are the others?
