Hey, guys. Back with another chapter. I know it's been a while since I first published this, and I will try and avoid going so long without updating again.

Green Hal37: Imagine a suit that is physically the same as Barry's, but the same color scheme as Pietro's outfit in Age of Ultron. Also, instead of a cowl, he just has a face mask.

Guest: In this, Nora is the older twin by like half an hour.

Guest 2: Shuri is working on a new suit for Barry right now, and he'll be getting it during my Crisis on Earth-X story.


Chapter 2- Steve & Sam's New Job

"So, I'm assuming you didn't actually tell Captain Singh where we actually come from?" Steve asks as he and Sam follow Joe into CCPD.

Joe laughs a bit. "Course not. I just told him you were secret agents for ARGUS until recently, and you decided to switch over to a career in local law enforcement," Joe says.

"You think this is gonna work?" Sam asks.

"I think so. David is a good guy. I think he's gonna be happy to have you two on the force," Joe says.

"Joe!" The three turn to see Clint, carrying a file in hand, approaching them.

"Hey, Clint," Joe says.

"Sorry to interrupt you three. But we just got a few witness statements for the Anderson case I thought you might want to take a look at," Clint says.

"Got it. Put them on my desk. I'll take a look at them after I help these two," Joe responds.

"Got it," Clint responds. He then smirks at Steve and Sam and says, "It's gonna be good to have you two on the force with us." He then turns and walks away.

"Joe!" The three turn and see Captain Singh walking towards them from his office.

"David. Good morning," Joe says.

"Are these two our newest applicants?" Singh asks.

"Yes. This is Steve Rogers and Sam Wilson," Joe says, gesturing to each of them as he says their names.

"Well. Welcome to CCPD, gentlemen. Why don't you join me in my office?" Singh says, gesturing to his office door. Steve and Sam nod as they follow Singh into his office.

"Well, I was surprised to receive your applications, I must say. May I ask why you decided to retire from ARGUS and join CCPD?" Singh asks the two.

"Well, we've seen a lot of action as part of ARGUS. Although it can be fun at times, we decided that we wanted a job with a little less excitement," Steve says with a chuckle.

Singh chuckles a bit himself. "Well, I'm not sure if duty in Central City is going to be as calm as you're expecting it to be," he says, drawing laughs from Steve and Sam.

"So, why did you choose this profession in the first place?" Singh asks.

"I was never looking to arrest people, or kill people, or bring others pain. For me, it's very simple. I don't like bullies. I don't care where they're from. I want to make sure that those who can't otherwise protect themselves from bullies don't have to suffer injustice," Steve says.

"And I do what he does. Just slower," Sam jokes, drawing a chuckle from Singh.

Singh continues the interview for several more minutes. Then, he closes the files he's had open throughout the interview and says, "Well, I have to have a word with the Chief of Police and go through some other new applicants. But, I do have to say you two have made a very good impression. I can't say anything official yet, but I will say I feel it very likely I'll be working alongside the two of you very soon."

Steve and Sam stand up, both taking the turn to shake Singh's hand. "Thank you, Captain. We appreciate you taking your time to interview us," he says.

"Of course, Mr. Rogers. I look forward to seeing you again. Oh, and on your way out, please send in Detective West," Singh says. Steve nods before he and Sam walk out of the office.

A few seconds later, Joe enters the office. Joe looks at Singh and asks, "Well, sir?"

"I like them both. I think they definitely have what we're looking for. And, with their evening heroics, I think they'll fit in on the force very well," Singh says with a knowing smile.

Joe feels a sense of panic rising in him as he hears what Singh just said, but he keeps his face calm. "Pardon, sir?" he asks.

"Joe. Please, I'm a detective, too. I know they're friends of Barry. And do you really think I haven't figured out Barry is the Flash by now? Plus, I think it a little coincidental that Captain America and Falcon happen to show up right after they come to Central City," Singh says knowingly.

Joe just sits there for a moment, chastising himself a bit for underestimating Singh's knack for detective work. Then, he starts to smile and asks, "You're not mad we kept the secret?"

"Not at all, Joe. I understand why, and now I understand some of Allen's mysterious behavior from the last few year. I'm guessing Barry is the one who brought everybody back? That's why he's taking that leave of absence?" Singh asks.

"Yes, sir," Joe says.

Singh smiles. "Well. I'll be glad when he makes it back to duty. But, for the time being, I guess it'll be nice to have one, or two, of Central City's vigilantes working on the force," he says.

"You're taking this remarkably calmly, sir," Joe responds.

"After everything we've been through the last few years, I've gotten used to the crazy," Singh responds.


(STAR Labs)

Wanda smiles as she walks through the doors into STAR Labs. Barry is having a good day, and so she felt it was okay for her to take a quick trip to STAR Labs to get a few things from Caitlin to help with his continued recovery.

"Wanda!" She turns to face the voice, and sees Cisco walking towards her.

"Hi, Cisco," she responds with a smile.

"Good to see ya," he says, giving her a quick hug. When they let go, he asks, "What are you doing here? Where's Barry?"

"He's back at the house, watching Nora and Stephen. He's feeling well enough I felt I could leave him alone long enough to come into town for a bit to do some shopping and pick up Caitlin's supplies for Barry," Wanda responds.

"Gotcha. Well, I think Caitlin is in the med bay. I got to get down to the training room. Pietro and I were gonna run a new exercise," Cisco says.

"Thanks, Cisco. Say hi to my brother for me," Wanda says with a smile before turning and continuing walking towards the Cortex. She smiles as she makes her way down the hall. This is only her second time in STAR Labs, and she still finds it an impressive place. Maybe more impressive than the Avengers Facility in New York.

As she rounds the corner, she suddenly bumps into somebody. A split second later, she realizes it's Iris.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't…" Iris starts to say, before seeing who she ran into. She instantly goes quiet, and a harsh look comes over her face, and she almost glares at Wanda.

"I'm here for Caitlin," Wanda says, trying to be civil and polite.

"In the med bay," Iris says tersely before storming out of the Cortex. Wanda stares after her, worried. She knew Iris wasn't going to appreciate what had happened between her and Barry, but now she wonders if it may be a bit more extreme than she thought.

"Wanda!"

Caitlin's friendly voice draws Wanda out of her thoughts, and brings a smile to her face. She turns towards the med bay, just in time to see Caitlin hurrying over. The two friends warmly embrace.

"Good to see you again! Sorry I have't been able to make it out to the farm in a week. How are the twins?" Caitlin asks.

"They're both doing great. Very active. If I hadn't already seen their future selves have speedster powers, I'd by now definitely would be guessing that they do, they love running around so much," Wanda says with a slight laugh, making Caitlin laugh too.

"Well, I'm guessing you're here for the stuff for Barry. I've already got it all together, so let's grab it and get you back to your family. I'll help you carry it up," Caitlin says.

Wanda smiles as she follows her friend into the med bay. However, as she laughs and chats with Caitlin, a small shadow lurks over her happy day. An Iris-shaped shadow. Wanda knows the storm that's brewing is going to break eventually. And she's not looking forward to it.


And, I'll end there.

So, Steve and Sam are going to be joining the CCPD. And Singh not only knows Barry is the Flash, but has figured out Steve and Sam are Captain America and Falcon. Honestly, I don't think it's that hard to believe. I think Singh knew Barry was the Flash for quite a while before he announced it. And, after figuring out Barry was the Flash, I think he would've learned what to look for, and could've, with the holes in their story, figured who Steve and Sam were. Think what you will, but I think it's not unrealistic.

So, the tension is growing between Iris and Wanda. I will announce that the big fight you're waiting for between those two is coming in Chapter 5. I will also announce that this story will be 8 or 9 chapters long (depending on whether or not I have to split one chapter I have planned into two).

Also, a quick note. I have a fanfiction I've started working on again, called Final Countdown: World at War, which features a US aircraft carrier from the 1980s getting sent back to the day before Pearl Harbor, and the carrier ending up fighting in WWII. Go check it out if you haven't.

Well, I hope you liked this chapter. Next one will be up within two weeks (maybe sooner, but I can guarantee within 2 weeks). Until then, leave a review, and stay tuned!
