Thanksgiving
"Look what we made in school!" Star said, holding up the turkey art.
"Oh, that's beautiful," Barry said with a smile. "How about we put it up here?" Barry put the two artworks on the refrigerator. Barry had picked Star and Romana up after school – this was their first Thanksgiving.
"We learned about this holiday in class," Romana said as Kara came down the stairs. Her shirt wet as she had been giving Alura and Nora a bath, so they would be clean for tomorrow. The two girls had decided to splash their way through it, of course. "The Pilgrims and Indians had dinner together."
"Yes," Kara said, remembering her own schooling on this. "It was a day of peace after the two groups had been fighting with each other."
"But the peace stopped," Star said, the two clearly having been thinking this over since the class. "So why have the holiday when the peace did not work?"
I got this, Kara thought to Barry, who paused with no answer, having just grown up with the holiday himself without questioning it. "Peace is a funny thing. It doesn't always last. These two groups had no reason to sit down together, no reason to find peace, but for one day they did. Just for one day. And even though that peace failed, that one day of peace is worth celebrating." Romana and Star smiled and nodded. Both seeming to get it.
"Now, get yourself ready for bed," Barry said, the two girls nodding as they went to run up the stairs. Barry was smiling at Kara. You know we need to talk about something.
Oh? Kara thought as she took a seat on the couch, petting Hex as Barry took the seat opposite her. The two just looking at each other. "So… what's up?" Kara could tell something was troubling Barry.
"I've been thinking," Barry said. "And, well, with trying for a new kid and having Romana and Star we don't have any extra rooms anymore. We choose a kind of small penthouse…" When they had chosen the Penthouse, they had never expected to have more than three kids and had only planned for three – getting a penthouse with the exact number of bedrooms they would need. "We didn't even think we might need an extra room; as it is now, Alura and Nora will always share, it's looking less and less likely we are finding a place for Amelia and Winn, Star and Romana will be here too. And then, what if we have more than one kid again? We've had Zor living with us, Amelia… who knows who will return from the dead next." Kara had to chuckle at the joke. "Then we've had Sara and Alex stay the night and others. We just don't have room."
"So, you want to look for a new place?" Kara asked, getting they were lacking space but not wanting to move. "We have more than enough money." Even as Kara said it, the words felt wrong. She liked the penthouse – it was the first place since she moved to Earth that truly felt like home.
"It feels wrong though," Barry said, and Kara knew he felt the same.
"The rooms are really big," Kara stated – the rooms of the penthouse were all very big, some as big as entire apartments below them. "We could put up temporary walls. Double the space."
"We could… or," Barry started, and Kara knew he had a plan. She could feel it. "While you were busy with Moon Watchtower, I was thinking up plans of my own."
Before Kara could ask or Barry could continue, her cellphone rang. Kara picked it up.
"Caitlin? Is this important?" Kara asked wanting back to the conversation, to know what Barry was thinking – they had been good as hiding thoughts from one another for a while now.
"Very," Caitlin said. "Cisco and I need you to come to STAR early tomorrow morning."
"Tomorrow is Thanksgiving," Kara pointed out. "No work. Besides we're having everyone here."
"Trust me this is worth it," Caitlin said, and Kara could tell from her voice she was excited. "I can get rid of the Metamorphosis." Kara and Barry looked at each other at those words.
The metamorphosis was having a horrible effect on the economy of the United States. With farmers not able to trade and tourist not wanting to come over; add in New Justice saying it was incurable and they had no hope. This was worth an early morning visit to the lab on a day off.
-Karry Universe-
Thea and Paula were out on the streets that night on their own. Oliver and Jack were in the Glades, while Laurel was back at base, unable to go out due to her pregnancy. Given that Curtis had long-since left the team, and Gideon was as good a tech person as a real human these days, it meant Laurel didn't need to do much on the computers.
Since the Metamorphosis though, things in Starling had been more interesting for Team Canary. The normal drug rings and criminals they normally went after had one or more meta humans within. Currently they were tracking a meta human drug smuggling ring connected to the Cartel when they ended up uncovering a human trafficking ring.
Led by a meta human created during the accelerator explosion, a female named Amunet, it used to be in Central only since they marketed in selling meta humans but had been forced out years ago by the heavy present of the Flash and Supergirl in the city. With the Metamorphosis expanding meta humans to all over the United States, new life had grown into the ring.
"Got to say, things aren't boring anymore," Thea said as Paula took out one of the meta human men. "I got this one." Thea nodded towards the meta human running up the fire escape, using an arrow connected to a rope to launch herself to the roof of the building, just as the meta human escapee came up.
"So, we can do this the easy way or the hard way," Thea said to the meta.
"My thoughts exactly," the meta said, and to her shock, one of his eyeballs fell out of his eye and a snake came out of it the socket, seeming to spit some type of venom. Thea took a step back and put an arrow in her bow, ready to use. "Let me leave or…" The man never finished his sentence as some type of device hit into, and chopping off, the snake. The meta cried out in pain.
Thea spun around, pointing her arrow at a new figure on the roof. A man with a red mask completely covering his face; he was a black outfit with a brown jacket. He also had a belt with multiple different weapons on it.
"Red Hood?!" Thea called, having been aware of the new vigilante in town for a while. Team Canary had been too busy to track him down though, what with Laurel's baby coming any day and the Metamorphosis causing more meta humans.
"Speedy," Red Hood said.
"We've been meaning to find you," Thea stated, but she couldn't help but smirk. Even without seeing his face there was something about the man's voice. The way he held himself. Thea didn't even notice Paula going after the meta she had been after, easily tying him up.
"Well, I have been too busy to introduce myself," he said. "And I really must go now. But you're welcome." The man took a bow before using a device to swing off the top of the building and to the street.
Thea ran to the side, taking out a different arrow. Red Hood was going to a car; an old black Chevy Impala parked below. Thea managed to get a tracker on him, before he got in and drove off. "Gideon?" Thea said taking out her communicator.
"Yes Speedy," Gideon's voice said.
"I just activated a tracker," Thea said. "Keep an eye on it."
"Will do," Gideon said as Thea turned around. She needed to get this meta human medical attention and then to jail.

"Thanks for coming early," Barry was saying to Joe and Zor. Both men were coming for dinner, but they had called the night before to ask them if they would babysit and get the dinner ready. Especially since Amelia had spent the night with Winn and was not able to get there until dinner. This way he and Kara could go see what Caitlin had found. Wally and Jesse had also come, carrying plates for Joe - Wally still lived with Joe, after all. Richie and Ryan, the flying metas who were now the longest members of meta home, were with Zor too.
"Of course," Zor said. "And thank you for letting me bring Richie and Ryan." Eliza was doing a Thanksgiving for meta home, but Zor had asked to bring the twins to the penthouse. The two had almost been adopted for the potential parents had backed out last minute when the wife had gotten pregnant, the two had taken it hard. Star and Romana were good friends with them though, so Zor thought the two would cheer them up.
"No problem," Kara said, noticing the two boys were already playing with Star and Romana. "Where's Connor?"
"Feeding Wolf along with Donna," Zor said. "They'll be here later." Kara gave a nod. She was already in her Supergirl suit and Barry summoned his suit. Kara kissed Alura and Nora, who were climbing on Krypto and gave her dog a pet.
The two were gone in a flash.
When they got to STAR Labs, Caitlin and Cisco were in the SuperFlash cave, along with Ronnie who was also there with Jenny and Garfield.
"Okay, so what do you mean you can cure the Metamorphosis?" Was what Kara said first.
"Hi to you too," Caitlin stated, before not wasting time and explaining herself: "Okay, so I noticed a few weeks ago that none of the plants in my Green House had the Metamorphosis, so I have been using my powers and testing it. You see, my power clears the Metamorphosis from the plants," Caitlin stated. "This won't affect humans, so the Metamorphosis will live on and be passed down through generations, but it will clear the food supply."
"Let farmers trade again? Tourist can come back... Bring back up the economy," Barry said, intrigued.
"And doing it on Thanksgiving would be good press for STAR," Kara said. "But can you do it all today?"
"Got to be done all in one," Caitlin said. "Or the cured plants will just be affected again."
"So, I have been making a device to enhance Caitlin powers," Cisco said. "It works but… We still need more help."
"Another me," Caitlin said. "With the same powers." Kara and Barry looked at each other. They knew New Justice Caitlin had fire and Mutant was powerless, they had heard Prime Caitlin did something with weather, but other Caitlins they were not too sure about.
"SnowAllen me." Caitlin added.
"Oh, well let's see if they can get here today," Barry said with a nod. "Gideon, call SnowAllen."
It was a few minutes later before the video call was answered; Barry and Caitlin of SnowAllen on the screen. "You know it's Thanksgiving, right?" SnowAllen Caitlin asked.
"We're aware," Kara said, taking the lead. "And we're sorry for interrupting your holiday but we were wondering if you would be willing to come here to help us really quick with a problem?"
"You need an extra Flash?" SnowAllen Barry asked.
"No, we need an extra Mother Nature," Kara said, making SnowAllen's Caitlin smirk as she put a hand around her husband. Karry Barry put an arm around Kara as Kara explained about the Metamorphosis and then Caitlin explained how her powers would get rid of it.
"So, we'll get you in and out real quick." Barry finished.
"A virus that makes meta humans?" SnowAllen Barry said. "Now that is interesting. I would love to see what went into that. And the device your Cisco made sounds fascinating. I could take a look at it…"
"Barry," SnowAllen Caitlin warned, noticing Kara and Karry Barry give each other a look. "I would be very willing to help you. Can we get a ride there? Our Cisco is with his family now after a while of not being well. Long story."
"Oh, the system can now bring you to other worlds," Cisco said, speaking up as he explained how to use the system to world hop.
A few moments later, the portal open and SnowAllen's Caitlin and Barry appeared on the painted X.
"Mommy," Jenny called, Karry's Caitlin turning to the little girl. "Look what I drew." Jenny held up the drawing. She had apparently not been paying attention.
"That's great,' Caitlin said.
"Ronnie, why don't you take the kids and go to the penthouse?" Kara said as SnowAllen Caitlin looked at the family. "Jenny and Romana are there with Richie and Ryan. And, of course, Alura and Nora for Garfield." Jenny turned to Ronnie with big eyes. Garfield too clapped his hands.
"Sounds like a plan," Ronnie said, kissing his wife and then going to leave.
"Your kids?" SnowAllen Caitlin asked. "Adopted?" Karry Caitlin nodded. It was obvious, after all Jenny was not hers and Ronnie's biologically. "Interesting."
"So, where's this device?" SnowAllen Barry asked, wanting to see.
"This way Barry… what's your background color?" Cisco asked, not knowing what this Barry nickname was.
"I'm sorry?" SnowAllen Barry asked.
"How we tell the difference between Barrys. Their background color," Cisco said. "Our Barry is Barry-Blue because there is blue behind his Flash symbol."
"I don't understand," SnowAllen Barry said. "Why do you not use the Earth name…?"
"It's yellow," SnowAllen Caitlin said, cutting Barry off. "Just changed it from red last month."
"Barry-Yellow," Cisco said with a smile. It was different. "Right then, I have it made for two, it's quite simple really as it enhances the power by tapping into the dark matter within the DNA without harming the meta human – in this case, Caitlin of course," Cisco explained for SnowAllen Barry, who listened with intent to the words Cisco was saying.
"There is one thing," SnowAllen Caitlin spoke up. "We use our power all over the country... People will freak. How are you going to let them know it's fine with all these plants suddenly kicking to life? We don't want to start a Thanksgiving freak out."
"Why would there be a Thanksgiving freak out because plant grow?" Barry-Yellow asked, making many in the room pause, looking to his Caitlin.
"He's not really that good at understanding human emotions or their reactions," SnowAllen Caitlin said simple. "Barry, just continue with the device." Barry-Yellow smiled at his wife before turning back to Cisco.
"Is he autistic or something?" Barry-Blue asked, seeing the logic of people being scared by plants randomly growing.
"Never thought of that," SnowAllen Caitlin said. "But have you thought about how to spread the word?"
"Can Cat and Lois get it out?" Karry's Caitlin asked Kara.
"Even if they ran the story, there could be a large group of people who do not see it. Football, after all," Kara said, turning to Barry, the two talking in their minds, both giving a smirk. "Gideon will take care of it."
"I can override Gideon to make sure every single one in the country send out a message. Me and Kara will record a message for Gideon to send out," Barry-Blue said, knowing Kara was already thinking about what to say and making it holiday themed.
"And that will get everyone?" SnowAllen Caitlin asked, seeming unsure.
"Everyone has a Gideon," Karry Caitlin, Kara, and Barry-Blue all said together.
-Karry Universe-
"So, how's the hunt for your boyfriend going?" Paula asked; she and Thea were at Oliver and Laurel's apartment, having Thanksgiving dinner there today.
"He's not my boyfriend," Thea replied, but she had a smirk on her face regardless. "Gideon has been using information from the tracker to figure out who he is, so I can go to confront our Red Hood."
"It wouldn't be bad if you did start dating him," Laurel said, her hand on her big stomach, the baby was due any day now. "You have not been with anyone since William back when he was Roy." Thea rolled her eye at that and mumbled under her breath. "In fact, you have not been with anyone since I have known you." Laurel's eyes turned to Paula at that.
"I'm so down finding a boy for you," Thea said with a smirk, glad to change the topic.
"Um… well…. I'm not into boys," Paula said, seeming nervous as she said it.
"How have I known you this long and not known this?" Thea asked. "We can find you a girl."
"I'm… not into girls either," Paula said playing with her hands. "I'm not into either. Just never been into it. I tried both genders and it's just not my thing." Paula was looking down as she stated this, not looking into either of her friends' eyes.
She felt a hand on her shoulder. It was Laurel's. "That's fine too," Laurel said softly. "I didn't want to make you uncomfortable."
"Yeah," Thea said with a smile. "Whatever you want." Thea's communicator binged at that moment. "Oh, Gideon's got a name… and a photo. Damn he is cute." Thea turned the communicator around to let her friends see a man in his late-twenties with brown hair and a strong jaw. "Jason Todd. He's in the city. A mechanic." Thea was already up and left the room, returning in a bit in her Speedy outfit.
"Don't put an arrow through him as foreplay," Laurel called out as Thea headed for the door. It opened as Thea was about to leave, Oliver walking in.
"Hey Olly, got to go," Thea said putting her hand on his right arm. "Hey, the hologram is really good – your arm even feels real!" Thea rushed out as Oliver gave her a confused look.
"Where's Jack?" Paula asked as Oliver shut the door. "I thought he was with you." Oliver seemed not to know what to say; he opened his mouth. "Let me guess he bumped into some boy from school…" Paula rolled her eyes as she got up. "Now that one is boy-crazy."
Laurel laughed as Oliver frowned at this comment, looking her over. "You look beautiful," Oliver said, bending down besides the couch, moving a piece Laurel's hair away from her face and then kissing her passionately. The kiss surprised Laurel, but she went along with it, kissing him back. Paula cleared her throat and the two backed off.
"Want me to leave you two alone?" Paula asked.
"It's fine," Laurel said with a laugh, not sure what had come over Oliver. He had kissed her like he had not seen her in months. "Besides this little one is active right now." Oliver put a hand on Laurel's stomach and Laurel moved it so Oliver could feel the kicking.
"You look ready to pop," Paula said. "When is your due date again?"
"Tomorrow," Laurel said. "But that's not a guarantee of anything. Could still be a few weeks."
"Then it's getting back into shape and into your Canary costume," Paula joked. "With a baby in tow..."
Laurel laughed. "Yeah, that's not going to be easy," Laurel said feeling jealous of Kara, who powers had returned her to her normal weight after giving birth.
"Well, you have that new Canary cry of yours to even things out. Metamorphosis to the rescue on one thing," Paula said.
"Yeah," Oliver muttered, with a smirk on his face and kissed Laurel again.
….
Thea had easily made it to Jason Todd's apartment and in through the window.
Jason was sitting there eating pie as Thea took out his own device from earlier and tossed it; it landed in the pie as the man looked up.
"Thought I would return that," Thea said.
Jason leaned back and looked up at Thea. "Want some pie?" He simply asked.
"You don't seem surprised to see me," Thea said, and Jason went into his pocket and put Thea's tracker on to the table. "You knew…?"
"Yeah. Nice shot though," Jason said with a nod.
"Why didn't you just ditch the tracker?" Thea asked.
"I was hoping a pretty girl was coming to my door," Jason said, smirking now. "And I was right." Jason took his device out of the pie to start to eat again. "So, pie?"
"You know I didn't clean that," Thea said, taking a seat but Jason shrugged. Thea had to laugh at that. "So… Jason…"
"JT," Jason said, making Thea raise an eyebrow. "I go by JT."
"Okay JT," Thea said with a smile. "What's with the Red Hood?"
"What's with yours, Speedy?" JT asked, taking bite of his pie.
"I'm a member of Team Canary," Thea said, taking the knife and cutting herself a piece of pie. JT got up and grabbed a fork form a drawer for her. "Thank you." Thea took the fork. "But you're in our city. We've worked hard for many years to have this city trust us. We can't let someone else being a vigilante stop the trust we gained. So why are you out there?"
"My parents were murdered," JT said. "When I was a teen. Left me on my own. I hunted their murderer down to here and stopped him." Thea took a deep breath, seeming nervous here. If he was killing, Thea had to stop him. "But it didn't make me feel as good as I thought." Thea released the breath with a smile at that. "The man he was a member of a gang who had kidnapped a kid, I freed her and got the gang arrested. That did make me feel good."
"So, you donned a Red Hood," Thea said with a nod. The story was a familiar one; revenge for a love one death leading to a vigilante life. It was like Nightwing's and many others Thea knew. Hell, even Paula had first wanted revenge for her sister.
"So Speedy, what's your story," JT said, seeming to smirk as he read her mind. "First off, what's with that name? Speedy sounds like it should be one of those Central City speedsters."
"I like it," Thea said, taking her hood off. She felt safe with JT for some reason. "My brother called me it long before I put on the hood… but call me Thea." JT gave a smile at that. "And as for me… my father was an evil dick." Thea remembered of learning her father was not Robert Queen, but instead Malcolm Merlyn. "And I didn't want to be like him. I wanted to be like my brother instead."
"Oliver," JT said, and Thea raised an eyebrow. "Come on, I can recognize the woman in charge of Palmer Tech. Thea Queen." Thea had not expected he would recognize her, but she should have. After waking up from a coma by being healed, and overseeing Palmer Tech, it had given her some media attention. Kara had handled it for her, since Palmer Tech was part of STAR Co.
"Your secret is safe with me." JT took another bite of pie. "So, did I pass? Can I stay in the city as Red Hood?"
"I think that's possible," Thea said as JT got up and went to the refrigerator.
"Want a Turkey sandwich?" JT asked, holding up the cold cuts.
"Aren't you going anywhere for a turkey dinner?" Thea asked. It was Thanksgiving after all.
"I told you my story. I got nowhere to go," JT said making Thea frowned, realizing this man had no one.
"No," Thea said shaking her head. "Put the cold cuts away. Get on your outfit; I'm taking you home with me. Introduce you to the rest of Team Canary. You'll have dinner with us." Thea did not know why she trusted this man, but she did. She even got up and took the cold cuts out of his hand to put them away.
JT gave her a look but shrugged. "I'm not turning down a free meal. Grab the extra pie on the counter. Can't come empty-handed," JT said as he disappeared into what must be his bedroom and retuned in his outfit – the complete red mask not over his face, but he put it over. "I'll drive." JT was reach for keys.
"No," Thea said. "We'll take my bike instead of your old black car."
"That's a 1964 Chevy Impala," JT said, suddenly sounding indignant. "And no one makes fun of my Baby." Thea rolled her eyes as her as Jason left the apartment, heading for Thea's bike anyway.
-Karry Universe-
Cisco and Barry-Yellow had put some final touches on the enhancement device for the two Caitlins powers, who were talking as Kara and Barry had recorded a message.
"We're ready over here," Cisco called out, looking at his cellphone. It was his wife Lisa telling him she was at Kara and Barrys penthouse already. Lisa had been with Sara and Alex, having taken an interest in their three babies – Leonard's biological kids – and had been helping them get ready since Alex was due in about a week.
"Ready here," Barry-Blue said, having been programing his computer and his Gideon to connect to every Gideon and send out the recorded message.
The two Caitlins got up, heading to the device. "Just put your hands here," Barry-Yellow said, knowing enough of the device. "And then focus your powers."
"Just wait until after everyone gets the message," Kara instructed, nodding to her husband and thinking: send it.
Barry-Blue did not need any more input as he sent out the message…
It appeared on the computer screen in the Superflash Cave, starting off with Kara speaking: "Hello! We're sorry to interrupt your holiday and there is nothing wrong with your Gideon."
"We want to repeat, there is nothing wrong with Gideon," Barry in the message said. Even though they weren't wearing anything festive, Barry had programmed for their looks on the broadcast too seem a little more Thanksgiving-y, to fit the day. "We needed to get an urgent message to you and this was the best way. Your Gideon will return to normal once this message is over."
"We here at STAR Co have found the cure to the Metamorphosis," the message continued with Kara, the entire world having learned about it by now. "The cure is only for the food supply and the dirt; unfortunately, the people infected with the metamorphosis will still have it inside of them, but soon it will no longer be able to spread. Do not get nervous. The plants and nature around you will start growing for this cure. It just means the cure is working."
"And farmers, you're about to have a really good crop," Barry continued in the message, a small smirk on his face.
"And from our family to yours, have a Happy Thanksgiving." The message ended with Kara and Barry saying that together. Kara gave the Caitlins a nod, who put their hands on the device and concentrated their power. They could feel their power enhance.
Cisco went and checked the STAR Lab satellite, which he had set to track growth. "It's working!" He said, seeing that immediately all plants all over the United States had started to grow exponentially. He made sure to check Hawaii as well and it was working there too.
"Are Cat and Lois repeating the message over their platforms?" Barry asked. Kara had sent the two a message before telling them to be ready.
"Yes," Kara nodded.
-Karry Universe-
"Hey, listen to that," Oliver said as he walked into the apartment with Jack, both having their hands full. Kara and Barry's message had just played over their own devices. "Of course, they would find a cure for the Metamorphosis."
"When did you go out…?" Paula asked confused to Oliver. "I thought you were in the bedroom with Laurel."
"What are you talking about?" Oliver asked, pausing.
A noise was heard, and Oliver turned his head to see Laurel come out with someone who looked just like him. Laurel paused, seeming confused. "Oli…?" She stopped as Oliver's double grabbed hold of Laurel; Laurel tried to use her scream, but the other Oliver rammed a device around her throat.
"Sorry my love, not yet," the other Oliver said, taking what seemed to be a knife out and Laurel did not dare to move. Afraid this double would hurt the baby. "I'm taking her and our child. You don't deserve her. You're weak."
"Who are you?" Oliver growled now, grabbing his bow and arrow he still had on him as Jack drew his pistol. Paula transferred a normal knife she was holding into a sharp blade with her power and prepared to throw it.
"Let her go," Thea's came in through a window, along with the Red Hood. Thea had an arrow out too and JT also took a gun out of his belt.
"Listen to the lady," JT said, pointing the gun. "You're not getting out of here."
The other Oliver smirked. "Reverb! Drifter!" He called out, and a blue portal opened behind him – someone was watching, waiting for him. The other Oliver stepped back, into the portal and dragging Laurel with him.
JT was fast and into the blue portal after the two, Oliver was behind him but the portal snapped shut before Oliver could move through; Thea, Paula and Jack had moved, but had no chance to going after the other Oliver and Laurel.
"An alternate of me just kidnapped Laurel and my baby!" Oliver moaned, the hand of his robotic arm going into a fist. He was angry.
"JT as well," Thea said.
"How could you not tell he wasn't me?" Oliver rounded on Paula who raised her hands at Oliver, looking just as shocked and confused as the rest of the room.
"Never mind that, we need to go get Kara and Barry now." Thea cut off her brother, knowing Kara and Barry were the ones who knew world hopping better; the entire Team Canary did not wait a moment though before running out. They needed to get to the zap tunnel.
-Karry Universe-
"Well that worked well," Cisco said after the two Caitlins were finished. "Not just all over the United States, but most of Canada and Mexico experience growth as well. The Metamorphosis is gone."
"Thank you," Kara said to the SnowAllen couple.
"Well it was simple," SnowAllen Caitlin said with a smile. "Now, I think we should go to our dinner."
"Caitlin?" Barry-Yellow said, taking her hand, "I heard you and your alternate talking about kids... I know you want to be a mother and I have, well, I have been scared. I know I don't get on well with people and was not sure I would be a good father." Before SnowAllen Caitlin could interrupt, she suddenly looking apologetically to the Karry group in the room, Barry-Yellow continued. "But I was thinking that maybe there are meta human kids out there we could help? Maybe we should adopt, and I will work on being a father, helping a meta human would help me that way."
"Oh Barry," SnowAllen Caitlin said bringing Barry-Yellow close. "I'd love to adopt a kid with you, but it's too late not to have a kid of our own."
"We can easily stop us from being able to conceive," Barry-Yellow started, and the Karry group realized he did not understand what his Caitlin meant.
"Yellow me," Barry-Blue called, making Barry-Yellow turn to him. He had apparently got used to the nickname. "She's saying she's pregnant."
"Oh," Barry-Yellow said, an odd look on his face as then he kissed Caitlin. "I'll work on that too."
"You will be a great father," SnowAllen Caitlin said as they got on the red X and Gideon sent them home.
The group was silent for a moment. "That was odd," Caitlin said, interrupting the silence and the group laughed.
"Come on, we have a holiday to get to," Barry stated, and then grabbed Cisco. Kara grabbed Caitlin and they flew, and ran, to the Penthouse.
"Kara, Barry!" Romana yelled out when they walked in – it seemed almost everyone had arrived. "We have been helping…" Romana, Star, Jenny, Richie, and Ryan were placing things on the table. Winn and Amelia were there already, along with Sara, Alex, and Lisa. Alex was sitting on the couch with food in her hands and Hex sitting close. She looked huge with three babies in her.
Connor and Donna had showed up and brought Wolf with them; Krypto was giving the wolf looks, keeping Alura, Nora, and the green puppy that was Garfield close. "I know we agreed not to talk business at Super Family gathering," Lena spoke as she came out of the bathroom. "But can I say how unfair it is we announced the Metamorphosis together, but STAR Co. gets all the credit for the cure?"
"Sorry," Kara said with an apologetic look to her friend. "It happened so fast."
"Well, tomorrow my high-speed train trial between National and Central opens," Lena said with a smirk. "Once it's succeeded, more branches can be opened and connect the country better than ever before."
"You know we have the zap tunnels. Why have we never put those public?" Cisco asked Kara and Barry; the two looked at each other. Amelia giggled at that.
"Ah, no work," Henry interrupted, coming in with Cat and Carter from the elevator. Astra, Ha, and Karen landed on the balcony as well, being the last to arrive.
"Everyone be like the kids and help!" Joe yelled. He and Zor were in the kitchen, and everyone started putting things on the table.
"Creator?" The penthouse Gideon spoke up. "Oliver, Thea, Paula, and Jack are requesting entry."
"What are they doing here?" Sara asked, finding it strange but neither Kara and Barry knew as they told Gideon to let them up.
The four seemed out of breath as thy ran in. "Kara, Barry!" Oliver said. "There's another… well… me and he… I…. he… well he took Laurel."
"And JT," Thea added.
"Wait what?" Kara asked, the words not making much sense to either her or Barry.
"Who's JT?" Barry asked.
"Thea's new boyfriend," Paula said, making Thea give her a look. "An Oliver from another world has kidnapped Laurel. JT ran into the portal after them before it closed." Paula clarified for the confused group.
Kara and Barry stood up in shock.
We need a Vibe, the two thought, not sure which one of them thought it as they grabbed a cellphone. "Gideon," Barry said once he called the lab. "Call Mutant." Vibe Junior was the first Vibe to come to his mind.
Post Chapter: Cliffhanger! But this is not the last chapter before I go back to New Justice… that's next chapter. I know this seems like the perfect cliffhanger for you, but I got other plans on that account. Be scared now. Be real scared.
Also, note about the Penthouse: Early on in this chapter I had Kara and Barry talking about their Penthouse being small for the people in it. That's my fault as I did not plan for the Penthouse being bigger than the amount of rooms they needed for the three kids I had planned, or for so many people to have spent nights there. I've said this before, but Romana and Star weren't planned, and Amelia seems a standard feature of the place, with her house not working out (more on that later in the story). So, I find myself needing a bigger place for them but I'm kind of stuck with the Penthouse because of The Future Flash chapter when Kenny returned there. Anyway, I kind of love their Penthouse, so I have thought of ways to make it bigger. Will leave you with that and not explain further…
