They were at STAR Labs. It was time to to say goodbye everybody was there to say goodbye to Barry. Iris was there. Joe was there. Cisco was there. Caitlin was there. Eddie was there. Iris was holding their baby in her arms, safe and sound. Fast alseep. He gave him a kiss, hugged Iris and she promised him to take care of him. Barry said his goodbyes though, saying goodbye to Joe was hard. He loved his dad. When he was ready, he left. He couldn't believe he was doing this. He was going to his mother. Barry went back he was about to make his move but then, he hesitated. He watched his mom be murdered right in front of him. It was horrible a scene. One that would scar him even more. One that he would have nightmares about. But he couldn't change this timeline. Yes he lost his mother and his father was sent to prison for it but his mother had always told him, everything happens for a reason. He just didn't know what the reason was or still is. After Reverse-Flash left, Barry had a moment with his mom. It was sad. He got to tell her about her grandson that she had. How happy he was with Iris and how his dad was still in jail but he found her killer. When it was time for her to take her last breath, Barry couldn't say goodbye. He loved his mother more than anything. He wanted to protect her but he couldn't. Barry knew he couldn't protect her but he knew he could protect Iris, and their baby boy. So Barry went back to the original timeline and fought with Thawne. He wanted to kill him for ruining his life. He wanted to make him hurt but then, boom. Something went off. Barry turned to his right and Eddie was there. He shot him self. Why? How could he? Iris desperate to save her friend but then a wormhole opened. Barry got Iris out. They were outside and the hole was getting bigger and bigger. Barry was gonna need help stopping whatever the hell that thing was. Good thing Firestorm was there. Before he left he had to say his goodbye to Iris first just in case he didn't make it back. "Iris," he says as he holds her face,"if I don't make it back, take care of him for us, for me. Please."
"Barry you're coming back-"
"Promise me." Iris looked down at their six-month old son."I promise." Barry gave her a kiss and gave the baby a gentle kiss on his forehead. And then, he was off, to save the world. He and Firestorm tried everything to save Central City. When the singularity closed, there was an explosion. Dr. Stein was falling. Barry ran to catch him and saved his life. They were able to close the singularity. What a relief. When Barry turned, he only saw half of Firestorm. Ronnie, where was Ronnie? He died? What? How could this happen. First his mom, then Eddie, now Ronnie. Poor Caitlin, she was going to be devastated and it's all Barry's fault. He let everyone down.
