Watch Tower

"Well, that's interesting…" Cisco muttered, making Caitlin turn around to face him. She had been looking over the research her counterpart had into Velocity for Jesse, who currently wasn't here. "It seems Barry is directing more power to his lab than necessary."

"What happen to them being the bosses and billionaires who can do whatever they want?" Caitlin said with a laugh.

"Um…" Cisco turned around in his chair. "Okay, look, I'm curious. Come on though, you have to admit it's a little too interesting to ignore," Cisco stood up and walked towards the door.

Caitlin paused for moment and then followed Cisco to where Barry's lab was located. "How do you plan to get in?" Being the old Gideon room, the door was still hidden, even though everyone now knew it was there.

"You should really know me by now…" Cisco smirked, and in a matter of minutes had the door open.

"I made the security in this lab remember?" Cisco stated smugly as they walked into the room. Changed from it days as Gideon room, there was now a control panel in the middle and other equipment lying around. "What is he doing?" Cisco asked, looking over the equipment.

"I don't know," Caitlin said walking around the control panel. There was also a chessboard set up with an incomplete game. "Does Kara play chess?"

"She's your BFF…" Cisco responded as they heard a noise and Barry's voice from outside. "Oh, sh… Hide!"

"Where?' Caitlin asked as Cisco dragged her and they hid behind a desk. "Kind of cramped." Cisco put a finger over her mouth, indicating Caitlin to be quiet as the door opened and they heard the familiar voices of Barry and Kara along with Diana, Ronnie, and Stein.

"So what did you want us to see?" Ronnie asked and Caitlin tried not to feel offended that Ronnie was being included in this and not her.

"Gideon," Barry said and a light turned on. Caitlin and Cisco were just able to see a holographic humanoid appear. Ronnie and Stein's gasps indicating they were shocked but Diana remained silent – it seemed she wasn't surprised in the slightest.

"Good afternoon Creator, Creator's Wife, and Creator's friends," Gideon said; the voice was exactly as Caitlin and Cisco remembered the former hologram that deleted itself in this very room.

"You created Gideon…" Ronnie sighed in amazement. "I mean, I remember some talk about you being Gideon's creator – in fact, the whole A.I. game started with you – but this is so weird. The Waverider had one of these."

"Yes. Very impressive, Mr. Allen," Stein said, looking over the hologram. "But what was your purpose for creating this?"

"My Creator has made me to help and assist the Justice League," Gideon said. "As for the Creator's Wife, I have been researching dietary plans for pregnant women and suggest these changes to your diet." A list appeared of foods and Kara gave Barry a look, whom shrugged.

"Figured it couldn't hurt," Barry said, being the overprotective father already. Since Phobia had showed him his deepest fear come to life, he had been extra careful with Kara and the baby. Nothing was going to happen to them if he had anything to do with it.

"Caitlin is my doctor, not Gideon," Kara said and Caitlin had to smile at that. "And can you have it call me Kara. Or at least Supergirl." She addressed the A.I.

"Hey, Kal-X still calls me 'Kara Zor-El's Mate' when we go to the Fortress," Barry complained, but with a smirk that it was obvious there was some internal conversation no one else was privy to after that.

"What's with the chessboard?" Ronnie asked, going up to it after a few moments, figuring the two were done.

"It's how I have been testing Gideon's intelligence," Barry said.

"It's your turn, by the way, Creator," Gideon said and Barry looked at the board and moved his pawn up a spot.

"Knight to E3 and checkmate," Gideon said as Barry moved the pieces and then realized her last words.

"What?" Barry paused, looking over the board to see if she was right and found she was. He pouted at the board, causing the others to laugh. Caitlin and Cisco had to hold back their laughter "Oh, whatever," Barry sighed as he continued. "But there's more. Diana?"

Diana nodded. "Gideon, can you pull up the Watch Tower plans," Diana said, and a holographic representation of a tower-like structure appeared. "This is what we are calling Watch Tower. The Justice League's new headquarters. It is in a deserted area of the wastelands. The bottom levels consist of training rooms, equipment to handle normal and meta human training, and there are a couple of bedroom and bathroom on the next floor, then a meeting room for secure meetings, the very top is control center where Gideon will be placed."

"Once placed in Watch Tower, Gideon will be connected to all our communicators and be monitoring the Internet, police alert… everything really for crimes near our location. Once detected, she'll send an alert to an active League member when they are near enough to help."

"What's going to power all this in the wasteland?" Ronnie asked and eyes turned to Kara.

"Show them the power source Gideon," Kara instructed, and the screen switched to what looked like a small, glowing ball. "It's Kryptonian. It's what was used to power our cities. Clark has them in his Fortress – one actually powers the Fortress – this can run Watch Tower indefinitely."

"This all must have cost you a fortune," Stein muttered, impressed.

"We'll make the money back," Kara said, making eyes got to her. "Next week we're releasing a less advanced version of Gideon to the public. Outsourcing that version of Gideon would help patrol the internet, give Gideon wider access and as we advance, this Gideon we'll release updates to the Gideon for the public…"

"Making you millions," Ronnie whistled, and then sighed at the realization.

"Probably billions," Barry said with a smirk.

"When will all this be ready?" Stein asked.

Kara, Barry and Diana looked at one another. "It is ready," Kara said surprising the two.

"Like I said, you started the A.I. game… I didn't realize it would be that soon though," Ronnie muttered, more to himself.

"All we have to do is move Gideon." Kara continued. "We want to grant access to Gideon to all of you Legends who returned before we do though, and you two are obviously the closest right now…"

"Gideon," Barry said. "We're granting access to you to Ronald Raymond and Martin Stein. Prepare for their voice imprint."

"Ronald Raymond please say both your name and superhero alias," Gideon instructed.

"Ronald Raymond… Err, Firestorm," Ronnie confirmed, a little unsure.

"Access granted," Gideon said. "Martin Stein please say both your name and superhero alias."

"Martin Stein – Firestorm," Stein said, sounding more confident than his co-Firestorm.

"Access granted," Gideon repeated.

"Okay, that's everyone in this room," Barry said. "All we have left is Laurel and Ray."

"And Oliver, but we can't do that until he comes back," Kara said.

"Creator, would you like to grant access to Cisco Ramone and Caitlin Snow as well," Gideon said making the group look at each other. Caitlin and Cisco looked at each other in shock, trying not to cry out at that.

"Why would you ask that?" Barry asked, confused.

"You just said everyone in this room had access to me but that is untrue. They do not," Gideon said.

"But they're not…" Barry glanced to Kara, confused now.

"I think Gideon needs a little more work," Ronnie joked with a laugh.

"Gideon where are Cisco and Caitlin?" Barry now asked, turning directly to the A.I.

"Behind the desk, Creator," Gideon said and Barry walked over to the desk and looked behind it to find his two friends practically on top of each other, hiding and panicking. The pair looked up at him with nervous smiles as they very awkwardly stood up.

"Err, hi…" Caitlin said, a little nervously now to be discovered.

"So… you're probably wondering why we're here… well, it's a long story…" Cisco said, trying to think up something fast.

"Okay… we were curious," Caitlin said, deciding not to try and sugarcoat it. She didn't want to lie to her friends. "Well, Cisco was more than me…"

"How did you get in here?" Barry asked, stunned.

"It wasn't that hard," Cisco said, raising his hand.

"You realize if you were any other employees you would be fired right now right?" Kara asked, clearly over-angry from her emotions as Barry sent calming ones to her.

"Well it looks like your trying to replace us," Cisco said defensively, shocking the group.

"Why would you say that?" Kara asked, shocked as tears appeared in her eyes, the anger instantly dissipated, and Barry gave up trying to control her mood swings.

"And employees though we may be, we're your friends first and foremost," Caitlin pointed out, a little hurt herself; she wanted to add that she and Cisco had been at STAR long before Kara or Barry, but couldn't quite bring herself to say it at the tears now forming on her friend's face.

"You are," Kara confirmed to Caitlin, trying to control her emotions now. "And we'd never replace you. The two of you have been here the entire time for us."

"Gideon will watch for crimes and alert you," Cisco pointed out. "That sounds like what we do. And how long until she's monitoring your, well Barry's vitals and keeping you alert to dehydration or something?" Cisco had thought of this while under the desk – it had been Caitlin's job since Barry woke up to keep track of his vitals. If they ever got Kara to consent to putting monitoring in her suit keeping track of Kara would be Caitlin job too.

"Gideon can be there all the time. You can't," Barry said simply. "And yes maybe with time Gideon will be able to make plans the same way you can, and monitor vitals, but right now she can't. She also cannot make devices or just be there for us or do anything else you and Caitlin can do. We need you."

"Then why were we not told about this?" Caitlin asked.

"You should not be offended by this," Diana said speaking up. "No one outside the Justice League has been informed of Gideon."

"It's true," Barry said. "Joe, Iris, Alex, Lois, Eliza – none of them know."

"Neither does Karen," Kara added, wiping the tears away. "This was our project. Something we were doing together. We would have told you eventually."

"You have to see how this benefits us," Barry implored. "A secret location to meet up… With how busy and successful STAR is, this is not a good meeting place for the entire league any more. Even with the cave and the backdoor it's just not working as well. Besides, the new training areas are amazing and it's just a place for us to be."

"Speaking of which, I must leave to meet John and get the room ready for Gideon," Diana said. She and John had overseen the project, which was why she came here to explain it to Firestorm with Barry and Kara. Diana said her goodbyes and left.

Caitlin and Cisco sighed, nodding. They understood. Gideon was a long-term help for the League; it made sense. "Okay," Caitlin said, nodding at Cisco. "We're sorry we spied on you."

Kara bought them into a hug unexpectedly. "It was hard keeping this a secret from you," Kara said. "Especially with us starting in the Labs."

"And hey, Cisco, you've got to look at this," Barry said, a smirk now on his face. "Gideon, show the multiverse web theory." A hologram of what looked like a spider's web showed up. "I used the information Vibe from Prime Earth sent and downloaded it into Gideon. The red area is the damaged area – you do not want to know how many Earths were destroyed… I had Gideon calculate it."

"The number of Earths that were destroyed is approximately two…"

"I said we do not want to know, Gideon!" Barry snapped, not wanting to hear that number again and glad he never had to deal with a Zoom of his own. "Now, going by their number system, Earth-1, their Earth that they also call Prime Earth, is right in the middle. It's the reason why their Zoom was able to do this so effectively from their Earth." Barry pointed at a green dot in the middle of the web. "Right above them is Earth-2 which they call Wells Earth. Not that creative…"

"I really need to give Vibe a naming lesson," Cisco said, shaking his head.

"It wasn't named directly by Prime Cisco Ramone," Gideon pointed out, "Kara and Jessica Wells of Prime –"

"Thank you, Gideon." Barry interrupted the A.I. They didn't need the big details right now. "Earth-3 is a little further up," Barry pointed up at another green dot not far off from the red. "They call it Alien Earth. Earth-4 is not far from Earth-3 and is SuperEarth…"

"Now that's a little better, although sounds like Cat Grant named it," Cisco mumbled.

"Then we're Earth-5, or the Karry Universe," Barry said, rolling his eyes as the other laughs. "But looking at their notes they also use 'Karry Earth' too."

"That's an appropriate name for us," Ronnie nodded, with a chuckle.

"As you can see, we're right on the edge of the destruction," Barry said, noting their dot was next to the red-area of the web. "According to the notes, it's the reason why I never have accidentally traveled to another Earth. The speeds needed to leave this Earth due to the destruction would be something I would not even want to try. To travel out of our Earth we need a Vibe. Although people can travel here without one it seems. Their Jesse and Wally are prime examples – pun unintended."

"Fascinating," Stein mumbled completely, bemused by the multiverse. He had to remember to go over all these notes Barry was talking about in more detail. He loved multiverse theory and to see it in reality was something beyond even his imagination. He wasn't too thrilled with the names though, believing that numbering them was better.

"Earth-6 is right next to us," Barry said. "And it's called Mutant Earth. I think it's the one Barry White came from, too. The original one. I think, given the time he turned up, it was before the destruction happened though…"

"What is with the blue line?" Stein asked, noticing a blue line was connecting Earths 1 through 6.

"It's the communication system between the Earths," Barry stated with a smirk now, shocking Ronnie and Stein who had not been informed about that.

"We have an inter-Earth communication system now?" Stein asked and the rest of the group nodded. "Fascinating! So I can have a conversation with my counterpart of this Prime Earth."

"Yeah," Kara said. "We've had quite a few conversation with Prime. Haven't contacted the others yet."

"I do want to contact Mutant Earth one day and talk to Barry-White," Barry said having been wondering how things went for that Barry and to inform him that his information had helped them.

"Fascinating," Stein said with a smile. He had to ask how this communication system worked to have a conversation with his counterpart.

"But that's not all," Barry said suddenly remembering something else. "Gideon has calculated the position of nine other Earths in the multiverse. I took the liberty of numbering them. Gideon, show the new Earths with their numbers." Nine yellow dots appeared on the web.

"Right near us, a little further away from the destruction, is Earth 7," Barry now said. "Down below Prime Earth is 8, 9, and 10. They are all very close to each other. Up near SuperEarth is Earth 11, and not far off from Alien Earth is Earth 12 There's also Earths 13, 14 and 15 close by," he indicated these three others Earths in their own group close to SuperEarth but not near enough to be considered 'near' like Earth 11.

"No names?" Cisco inquired. He personally loved the names and wondered why each got their name. Prime Earth, Wells Earth, and Karry Universe were pretty obvious, but what about the other three. What led to those names?

"We don't know anything about them besides their position, and we can't leave to check them out since we don't have a Vibe," Barry pointed out. "I was thinking of calling Prime Earth and seeing if people wanted to Earth hop and explore these though."

"I'm so in and I'm naming!" Cisco called out right away with a smirk.

"Do you mind if I look over these notes, Mr. Allen?" Stein asked, and Barry nodded as Stein asked Gideon for the notes, which Cisco joined in on. Ronnie took this opportunity to leave the room though, knowing that his particular skillset wasn't going to be much help with multiverse theory and practicality. He gave Caitlin a glance though as he left; the couple had still not come to terms with their baby argument.

Barry and Kara took a seat after this, smiling as they listen to Cisco and Stein excitingly talked. "Hey I get Watch Tower is the Justice League place, but can we get a Gideon for the cave? She could be helpful." Caitlin tentatively asked Barry.

"That would be awesome,' Cisco said turning his head from Stein; his attitude to the A.I. had changed since the multiverse explanation, it seemed.

"Excellent," Barry laughed more than happy to make another one for his friends.

Post Chapter Note 1: I really love this chapter. Breaking down the multiverse in-chapter instead of in footnotes is so much more beneficial to both myself and my character. And to finally show you all what Barry has been working on… I hope you enjoyed it too.

Post Chapter Note 2: Is there anyone here who can draw? If so anyone have any interest in drawing us a diagram of the Multiverse Verse Web Theory? We have tried but we both can't draw at all.
