Leave a review after reading, please.

Special thanks to godspeed 251, Steve993, NeoTyson, and NASCAR1402 for reviewing the previous chapter.

In the Rogues' warehouse, the other Rogues were out having fun, which leaves only Black Siren and Golden Glider. Black Siren was pacing back and forth, kicking a few stones, while Golden Glider was lying down next to a pile of crates. They heard footsteps in the shadows. It was Caitlin, only her hair was completely white and her lips were blue.

"Now there's face I missed seeing," said Black Siren.

"That makes two of us," said Caitlin, speaking her meta voice.

"I don't know about you but my spine is chilling," said Lisa.

"Hilarious, Snart," said Caitlin sarcastically.

"So, our Golden girl is saved. Now what?" asked Black Siren.

"Now, we get her out of town," said Caitlin.

"What?" asked Lisa.

"Savitar needs you. I don't know what it is, but you can't stay here in Central City," said Caitlin.

"I am not leaving, Snow," said Golden Glider. "Look around you. You promised me a city ruled by criminals. I finally have it, and you can't rip me away from it."

"I can't let Savitar use you, Lisa," said Caitlin. She gives her a key. "There's a blue 350Z in the alley. Silver hood. Take it and go to Hub City."

Lisa smacks the key away. "I'm not going anywhere."

"I figured," said Black Siren.

"Not helping, Lance," said Caitlin. She looks at Lisa and says, "Savitar will find you if you stay here."

"Aren't you supposed to be 11 steps ahead of everyone?" questioned Lisa. "Can't you fool him or something? You've done it three times."

"Savitar is centuries old. I can only fool him so many times," said Caitlin.

"Regardless, I'm not leaving this city," said Lisa. "How can you have a change of heart, Snow? You won. Central City has fallen, and yet, you're playing doctor to the grieving and mentally ill."

"And helping the Flash," added Black Siren.

"Shut up, Lance!" shouted Caitlin.

Black Siren puts both her hands up with a smirk, promising not to speak.

"What happened to you, Caitlin?" asked Lisa.

"I'm not proud of who I became and what I've done, Lisa," said Caitlin. "I needed a fresh start. That's where I've been all this time."

"And what? You're gonna help the Flash take back the city?" asked Lisa.

"My only concern is stopping Savitar once and for all," said Caitlin. "But that doesn't mean I'll turn my back on my friends. Now, come with me..."

Caitlin was about to grab Lisa, but the latter takes out her Gold Gun and points it at the ice-powered meta.

"Let me make myself perfectly clear, Snow," said Lisa. "I'm not going anywhere. The Rogues need a leader and there is no way is hell I'm letting it be someone who isn't me."

In the blink of an eye, Caitlin smacks the gun away from her face, grabs Lisa's arm, and twists it, causing Lisa to fall into a slouching position, facing the floor.

"You forget. Laurel taught me well," said Caitlin.

"Fine! If this is how you want to play it," said Lisa.

Lisa kicks Caitlin in the shin. She picks up her gun and aims it at Caitlin. Caitlin covers the firing hole with hand and freezes the gun, shattering it to pieces.

"I just shined that!" yelled Lisa.

"I can mail you a new gun at Hub City," said Caitlin.

"I said I'm not going anywhere," said Lisa.

"Laurel, help me here," pleaded Caitlin.

"No. No. I'm gonna let you two girlfriends handle this," said Laurel, enjoying the fight.

Caitlin and Lisa glare at each other. Lisa looked exasperated and impatient, while Caitlin was stoic.

"Fine. Stay here and let Savitar find you," said Caitlin, giving up.

Caitlin started walking out of the warehouse.

"But you won't let that happen," said Laurel. "You saved me from A.R.G.U.S. You're not just gonna let Snart die."

"We'll see," said Caitlin.


Caitlin heads to the alley on the side of the warehouse. Before she walked out the door, she takes out something from her pocket. It was H.R.'s facial transmogrifier. She uses it on herself. She sees a shattered mirror nearby and looks into it. She looks exactly Lisa. The black and gold jacket she brought helps with the appearance.

Caitlin walks out the door and enters the blue 350Z she told Lisa about. She starts the car and drives away.

As she drove, something caught her. It was a security camera.


Caitlin drives the 350Z out of Central City and parks it in a field of bushes in attempt to hide it. She exits the car and hides behind a tree as she watched the road. A streak of white lightning zoomed by. Clearly, it was Savitar.

"Run, Barry, run," Caitlin mocked.

Caitlin gets back in her car and starts driving back to Keystone. Her phone beeped. She got a message from Barry. It said:

"We need to talk. My house."


Caitlin drives to Barry's house, where she finds the Scarlet Speedster pacing back and forth in the living room, arms crossed. Clearly, he wasn't happy, and Caitlin had a feeling why.

"Look, Barry, I can explain," she started. "I was..."

"Trying to get Savitar to distrust us?" interrupted Barry. "'Cause that's what you did."

"I told you that if I tell you what I'm up to, Savitar will know," said Caitlin.

Barry turns around and puts his hand on his forehead, trying to calm himself down.

"Okay, you make a compelling argument there," admitted Barry. "But of all the stunts you choose to pull, it's freeing Lisa Snart."

"Barry, Savitar was holding her hostage," said Caitlin.

"I figured that," said Barry.

"Okay, so we failed now, but we can try again," said Caitlin.

"And do you think he's gonna let us get close to him?" questioned Barry. "He's 'me', Caitlin. I remember what I was like when I was broken. I refused to let anyone in. I refused any kind of help. Imagine me but a hundred times more broken. How am I gonna get him to listen to me again?"

"You're Barry," said Caitlin with a smile. "You'll figure it out. You always do."

"But until then, Tracy needs to keep working on the trap, just in case," said Barry.

"Exactly what I had in mind," said Caitlin.

"Where's Lisa now?" asked Barry. "Oh, wait, never mind. Don't tell me. You probably don't want Savitar to know."

"No, I don't," said Caitlin. "Point is, she's safe now."

"So, uh, are we gonna talk about last night?" asked Barry.

"What about last night?" Caitlin didn't know what he meant.

Barry scratches the back of his head, embarrassed that he brought it up. "Uh... you know what, never mind. We got more problems to deal it besides... us."

"Goodnight, Barry," said Caitlin.

"Goodnight," said Barry.

After closing the door behind her, Caitlin puts on a smile. She knew what Barry was talking about. It was their almost-kiss last night. She blushed at the memory as she walked back home. The only other thing on her mind is, "Why would Barry want to talk about that?"


Back in the house belong to "Crystal Frost", Caitlin was just reading a book in the living room until she heard someone coming in through the window. She didn't need to look up from her book to know who it is.

"Hey, Laurel," she said. "Here to tell me that I owe you for today?"

"Not exactly," said Laurel, sitting down on the couch. "I'm only half-glad of what I did for you."

"Good to know," said Caitlin.

"I'm not taking that offer, though," said Laurel.

"Why not?" asked Caitlin. "I mean, I half-expected that you would deny it, but why?"

"I'm not interested in passing myself off as something I'm not, Snow," said Laurel. "I mean, 'Dinah Drake', seriously? You can come up with less obvious names than that."

"Well, I did rename myself, 'Crystal Frost'," said Caitlin.

"Point taken," said Laurel. "But still, I can't let you let the Flash and his team take back Central City."

"So, you want to keep killing and wrecking havoc, is that it?" guessed Caitlin sarcastically.

"But I will help Flash save you from Savitar," said Laurel.

"I don't need protection from anyone, Lance," said Caitlin.

"Of course not, but I'm not losing my partner-in-crime again," said Laurel. "See you next time."

"Oh, we will," said Caitlin.

Caitlin resumes reading her book while Laurel exits the house through the window she used to enter.

Remember 3x22 ("Infantino Street")? That's what's coming next. So, put on a coat and some mittens 'cause it's about to get COLD in the later chapters. Pun intended.
