"The universe...vast and ever-changing and always evolving to the situations. The people who live in it love to make the universe seem much smaller than it really is, otherwise, they face noticing how small they are in the scheme of things." The Watcher said as he eyed the heroes in Joe's place.
They have just been told the news that Jessica Drew, a classmate of Peter's, was not only Spider-Woman, the mysterious hero who's been helping them from time to time, but also their sister.
"So...how?" Peter asks Jessica. "I've seen you in the halls for years, and you never mentioned this before."
Jessica shrugged. "Honestly, I wasn't even aware of it myself until a few weeks ago."
"You didn't know your father was Henry Allen?" Wanda was next to question.
"I didn't know I had a biological father, period." Jessica corrected him. "I was only made aware after your dad was confirmed innocent. My official father died a few years ago, but never really got to know him. When Henry was released, my mom found him and gave him the news. Seems that my mom and your dad were friends years ago and...one heated argument between your parents, and a year later, while your dad was imprisoned, out I came."
"Your mom never told you?" Barry asked in shock.
"Didn't want me to know my dad was a convicted murderer," Jessica admits. "Anyway recently we started to do weekly visits, getting to know each other."
"How come he never told us?" Peter asks.
"He said he was trying to get to know me before introducing me to all of you," Jessica explained Henry's actions. "And he said he was going to tell all of you...and the next thing I knew, I was told he was murdered by Zoom."
Peter remembered that day easily since it wasn't too long ago, and even remembered something. "Dad did say he wanted to tell us something before Zoom showed up."
"You think she was that?" Teresa asked her brother.
"It is possible." Peter shrugged.
"So...where do we go from here?" Wanda wonders.
None of them had an answer for that.
The next day, still getting over the shock Barry is being shown footage of Rival being attacked in his cell in Iron Heights by an invisible, giant...something in STAR Labs with everyone else there, except for the kids as they had school. There wasn't anything shown on the screen, and all they saw was Rival being thrown around like a rag doll.
"Forensic analysis indicates the footage is genuine. No tampering was involved." Barry tells everyone.
"And we sure this is Alchemy?" Wells questions.
"Last thing he said before he died," Joe confirms to him.
"What could do something like that?" Angelica asks the group.
"Nothing like we've ever seen," Cisco stated.
"It could be a metahuman with telekinesis or cloaking abilities," Wells says. "We've got both on our earth."
"Ugh, yeah, remind me of Cassandra Cane." Angelica scoffed. "Man, she was hard to take down."
"So, what do we do now?" Miles asks.
"Julian Albert, he prefers to work alone, but I got feelers out in his investigation," Joe tells them. "I'm gonna go there now and see if he dug up anything."
"Well, until then, you guys wanna train?" Jesse asks them.
"Well, now we have to think about getting back to our earth," Wells says. "We've been here long enough."
"I still have a lot to learn," Jesse argues. "Your words, not mine."
"Well, if you want to train, let's train...speedster style," Cisco says.
Jesse goes into her new outfit Harry gave her that looks almost identical to Trajectory's suit. Cisco did a few modifications to it to make it her own thing, but it was similar enough to notice.
"Damn, Jesse's almost as fast as Barry," Wally says watching her run on the monitors.
"Velocity's just under Mach 3," Caitlin says and sees her vitals are normal.
"Cisco, we need to test her reflexes," Wells tells him. "Can we test her reflexes?"
"Patience, Harry. If anyone's gonna teach Jesse the ways of the Speedforce, it's Barry." Cisco assures him.
They watch the heroes continue to run until Jesse takes a trip and Barry makes their way back. Wells then agrees that maybe they should stay a little longer and Jesse leaves with Wally.
"Not what I meant by staying longer!" Wells yells even though they're far gone.
"Are you really sure you have to leave, Wells?" Caitlin asks Wells.
"I still have a lot to fix on my earth, and we should get Firestar and Spider-Man back to their crew." Wells defended.
"Yeah, we do need to get back." Angelica agreed. "Not to mention we're kinda missing school the days we're here."
"Yeah, but you know it's more fun when you're here helping us fix stuff in our earth," Cisco states.
"Yeah, it just hasn't been the same without you." Barry agrees with them.
"The team doesn't feel complete without Harrison Wells," Wanda explains to him.
"Then let's change that," Wells says. "There a whole multiverse of Harrison Wells out there. Want one? Let's go find one."
Over at the school, Peter and Teresa were telling their friends of the entire adventure they went on the last few days with their undead mother saving the world from Wilson Fisk, meeting Mutants, and then coming home to learn Jessica Drew is their relative.
"This whole time there have been others with powers?" MJ asked in shock. "Damn, you've officially beaten your last year's story of connecting to the universe."
"Web of Life, but sure." Peter guessed that worked. "And then after all of that..."
"You came home to learn a classmate has been your half-sister for years." MJ recapped his situation.
"Yeah, okay, our lives are a romcom. Nobody can convince me otherwise anymore." Bobby scoffed. "I mean, my girlfriend is an alien princess from space. You can't get worse than that."
"Really?" Jessica asked, sneaking up on Bobby, causing him to shriek and jump when he saw Jessica standing behind him. "My mom went out drinking with his dad, had a one-night stand, and died before he could tell anyone I existed."
"Yeah, she's got you," Gwen added.
"How long was she standing there?" Bobby asked them.
"Only for a moment." Jessica shrugged. "Guess you told them?" She asked Peter. "It's okay, I kinda expected it."
"Yeah, sorry, I'm not good at keeping secrets," Peter admitted. "I know, the irony isn't loss on me."
"So...is she joining the team?" Harry asked. "I don't know where we really go from here."
"I guess we could try to just start over," Jessica said as she held her hand out. "Jessica Drew. Raised by a single mother since my dad died a while back. My mom raised me and never told me that Henry was my real dad, not wanting me to think my father was a murderer."
"Okay." Bobby guessed that was an okay start. "Bobby Drake. Affected by the particle accelerator, given the power of ice, disowned out by my parents because of it, now living with my cousin, Caitlin."
"Are we all seriously doing this?" Peter asks.
"I think it's fun," MJ admitted with a shrug. "Mary Jane Watson. Wannabe singer and actor once upon a time, turned wannabe reporter. I have an older sister, who I've been out of contact with for a while but recently got back into contact with. My Father was an abusive monster, my mom died, and I've been living with my aunt. Which just so happened to be next door to this guy." She said as she shook Peter around. "Who is the best person I've ever met."
"She doesn't get our much." Peter joked.
"And we all know that's a lie." MJ joked as she kissed his cheek. "So, you wanna go?"
"If I start going, we'll be here all day," Peter warned her.
As they were heading their way up to class, they noticed Flash Thompson was messing with some younger kid. "Leave me alone, Flash."
Thompson pushed the kid into his car, then yanked him off. "Hey, don't get doofus on my car."
"I'm not giving you my homework." The kid proclaimed.
"I thought Flash was cool with you now," Bobby tells Peter.
"Meh, he mostly stopped bullying me ever since Ben died," Peter explained.
"It's cheating."
"Cheating?" Flash asks as he picks the kid up, dumping him in the trash. "I just wanna see if we had the same answers."
"Should we...?" Gwen asks.
"Yeah, Bobby, you're with me," Peter said as they headed over.
"You already have a cool car. A letterman's jacket, just because you have everything doesn't mean you can get away with everything."
"Picking on a little guy, Flash?" Peter asked as he and Bobby approached.
"How about we trade places and see how this works out for you?" Bobby dared, crossing his arms.
"Uh, hey, Pete, Bobby." Flash greeted them sheepishly. "What's up, guys?"
"Don't do that and bully some other kid," Peter tells him.
"Bully? I was only asking for an assist and this guy started shooting his mouth off." Flash said.
"Come on, Flash," Peter said with a scoff. "How would you feel in his shoes?"
"Lay off, Parker," Flash said as he dropped the bag and made his way inside. "Sheesh."
"Sorry about that," Peter said as they helped the kid out of the trash. "Flash is working on becoming a better person. I'm Peter, by the way."
"I know. I'm Alex. We're in the same science class." Alex informed Peter. "You beat me out for the internship at STAR Labs?"
Peter froze as he tried to remember, getting Bobby to slap his arm. "Oh! Alex! Right! Yeah, sorry about that."
"Forget it." He scoffed as he headed inside. "Forget me. Unless someone wants my homework or to save me, I'm invisible to all you popular kids."
"Me? Popular?" Peter asked with a scoff. "Hardly. Well, look if you wanna-"
"Thanks for the pity party, but I got that internship when you passed 'cause you were too busy being cool." Alex stated, walking off.
"Sheesh." Bobby scoffed. "Was it that bad for you?"
"Nah," Peter scoffed. "I got it worse."
Barry was with Joe at work after receiving word that someone was thrown out of a window, without the glass even shattering. He was alive, but badly bruised in the process. He was telling the cops that a man named Scudder was responsible for this. He was looking for Leonard Snart, aka Captain Cold.
"So, Scudder's going after everyone in Snart's old crew to track him down?" Joe asks.
"Yeah, but the only problem with that is, Scudder isn't gonna find him, Snart's gone," Barry tells him.
"What do you mean gone?" Joe asks.
"I'm not sure, but Snart kinda just upped and vanished." Barry shrugged, not aware Nick Fury captured Snart, Lisa, and Rory. "We can't find where he went anywhere."
"Okay, well, one of Snart's old crew is at Iron Heights," Joe stated. "I'll go see if I can talk to her."
"Okay, I'll alert Pete and his friends, and see if I can find any others at STAR Labs," Barry stated.
"Hey, I've been meaning to ask, how have you been doing?" Joe asked him. "About the whole...Jessica's situation?"
"That my dad had an affair, and had a child he never knew about?" Barry asked with a sigh. "I mean, I know my parents weren't perfect. They could have their arguments like any other couple. I just...I never saw my dad as the kind of guy who's done that."
"And yet there's clear evidence he did," Joe stated.
"Yeah, I know." Barry sighed. "I don't know." He then groaned and rubbed his head. "I can't tell if this is because of Flashpoint, or...I don't know if this was always supposed to happen. I didn't go farther back than after Peter was born."
"And Jessica is about the same age as Peter, isn't she?" Joe asks.
"About a month or two younger," Barry confirmed. "So...I don't know, with my new memories of Wanda, Teresa, and now recently Mary Parker being alive... it's... there's a lot going on."
"And not to mention you still have to get some work done on planning your wedding," Joe stated.
"The wedding." Barry couldn't believe that slipped his mind. "God, I have too much on my mind."
"Well, the best thing we could do, Bare is take this one day at a time," Joe said calmly. "And yes, I do miss the simple days when dead people stayed dead, and people weren't brought into our lives."
"I actually might agree with you," Barry stated as he and Joe split off.
Following along with Wells' plan to find another Harrison Wells in the multiverse to find a replacement. They go into the breach room and start setting up a satellite Wells helped put together.
"How sure are you that this will work?" Cisco asks Wells.
"Pretty sure," Wells tells him while working on the satellite dish.
"Okay, but how's this going to help us find another Harrison Wells?" Caitlin asks him.
"You ever go fishing, Snow?" Wells asks her.
"No." She answers him.
"All right, when you fish you use lures. Lures attract the fish." Wells explains while continuing to work on it. "The satellite is the fishing pole for the lure where we're going to cast our very tempting bait out into the world's largest ocean."
"Okay... How?" Caitlin asks.
"Cisco opens a breach, and this satellite will shoot a message embedded with a tachyon-enhanced laser out into the multiverse, and any earth that is technologically advanced enough should be able to receive it." Wells finished explaining.
"Okay, let's say this somehow works. Just 'cause they can solve a riddle doesn't mean they're a right fit for the team." Cisco states.
"Riddle. Did you say riddle?" Wells asks Cisco. "How dare you, sir. This is not a riddle. This is a complex algorithmic cryptogram Designed to test deductive reasoning, IQ, problem-solving skills, anything that our team will need to combat threats... metahuman or otherwise."
"Okay, so you're just sending out an intergalactic IQ test to all of your doppelgängers in the multiverse." Caitlin recaps Wells' plan.
"Not just a test." Wells retaliated. "Think of it as an invitation. Think of it as an elaborate help wanted ad."
"Will it test their attitudes, too?" Cisco asks as he prepares his glasses. "Because I'm not sure I can stomach another Wells with your bedside manner."
"I care for you too, you jackwagon," Wells says sarcastically. "Okay, the system is calibrated." He then looked down to Cisco. "What are you waiting for then?"
Cisco places his goggles on and starts opening a breach. Then a second after it opened, Wells starts sending the signal for a second and then they stop.
"That's it?" Caitlin asks expecting more.
"Yeah, that's it," Wells confirmed to her.
"Now what?" Cisco asks, removing his goggles.
"Now...we go eat a Big Belly Burger," Wells says while leaving.
They met up with Barry, who sent word out to Peter who brought everyone to STAR Labs, and Jessica got her first look at the inside of the facility.
"Wow. You guys certainly don't mess around." Jessica commented.
"Yeah, it's pretty cool." Peter nodded.
"How does this place still have power?" Jessica wonders. "I mean, half of this place blew up, a lot of faulty wiring, how do you have power?"
"Well, we have functional generators, and I technically have the money to keep it running." Barry shrugged. "Wells left me his fortune when he died."
"Wait, are you rich?" Bobby suddenly asked.
"I mean, I'm no Bruce Wayne, but..." Barry shrugged. "Well, here's the guy that assaulted the guy at the station," he then pulled up a profile on Sam Scudder. "That's him."
"Good looking guy," Caitlin says and Barry looks at her confused. She looked and scoffed when she saw her fiancé's reaction. "For a criminal. I can still look, you know. I have eyes."
"And I have a stomach," Bobby called to his cousin. "Please don't make me empty it."
Barry chuckled and rolled his eyes, not sure where that jealousy came from. "Well, he's more than just a criminal now," He tells them. "Apparently, he's a meta who can travel through mirrors."
"Oh, I got this one," Cisco says and starts thinking of a name. "He's a-he's a..."
But before he can figure it out, he gets interrupted by Wells. "Mirror Master." He tells Cisco.
"What the-?!" Cisco was mad.
"That's good." Barry complimented.
"Don't be impressed." Angelica scoffed. "We had a Mirror Master on our Earth, a guy named Evan McCulloch."
"Wasn't a meta, though. He had a sort of special gun that allowed him to travel through mirrors." Miles interjected as he knows their history.
"Really? How'd that work?" Peter asks, interested in tech like that.
"Must've had dimensional warping tech that changed everything into two dimensions," Wells tells him.
"Well, Scudder is hellbent on finding Snart, and he's going after anybody that worked with him in the past," Barry says. "Joe's interviewing one of them right now."
"Well, all of his associates are either presumed dead or gone AWOL, except this one," Cisco says and pulls up the file.
"Rosalind Dillon." Jessica reads.
"It says she has the ability to induce crippling vertigo," Caitlin says while Cisco and Wells start stuttering to find a name.
"Top, like a top. She's a top. That's her name. Amazing." Cisco says beating Wells and then eyeing him sternly. "What, you want to go?"
Barry and Caitlin just watched their childish behavior and couldn't believe that the adults were acting more childish than the actual children.
"Do we think she can lead us to Scudder?" Caitlin wonders.
"I'll have to see if Joe gets any answers out of her," Barry says, saying that Iron Heights has an entirely new wing for anyone with powers. That same place is holing Peter's Sinister Six enemies, and just about anyone else they throw in there with special powers and abilities. "That place is a dead zone, so we might need to wait."
"Not anymore," Joe called, spooking them as he entered the room. "They're gone."
"What?" Bobby asks.
Joe explained that Scutter broke Top out of her cell and escaped using the glass of her cell to get in and out.
"So you saw Sam Scudder and Rosalind Dillon escape through a glass window?" Caitlin asks.
"Like I said, he grabbed her hand. They walked to the window, and then poof, they were gone." Joe responds to her.
"So, mirrors, windows. Sounds like he can travel through anything with a reflective surface." Barry says.
"How does that work exactly?" May asks.
"He must be able to link Einstein-Rosen bridges to anything with high solar reflectance, right?" Peter guesses as he looks at Wells.
"plausible. Similar science I could say goes into breaching." Wells agreed.
"So he creates wormholes through reflections," Caitlin replies. "That's a new one."
"Look, I can't pretend to understand or care about the science behind it, but we need to find them before something really bad happens," Joe says to them. "So I'm gonna go old school at the precinct. I'll see you later."
Joe up and leaves when Cisco's phones go off. "What's that?" Caitlin asks him.
Cisco takes a look and sees their device worked. "We've got pings." He said and showed the news to Caitlin and Wells. "Looks like your doppelgängers out there cracked your code."
"Already? That was fast." Caitlin states looking over all the pings.
"Let's take a look," Wells says and they leave the kids and Barry alone.
"Uh... that was weird," Peter commented. Then his phone went off and he saw it was from Harry. "Uh, Harry wants to see me, I'll see you guys later. Tell me if we find anything."
Barry watched him leave and was confused. "So...am I the only one really working?"
Back at Star Labs, Wells, Cisco, and Caitlin are watching the holograms on the multiverse Harrison Wells that cracked their code. Looking for their replacement for when Wells returned to his universe. Right now they're watching one where it seems they're trapped in the old west.
"I-I solved the derivative you all done an' beamed up. My name is Wells, Harrison Wells. You can call me Hell's Wells. They call me that because of my past. I won't get into it with you now right and proper." Wells-31 says, and they don't see it working out and move on to the next.
"This is Earth-17," Cisco says and it pulls up a British Wells.
"Salutations to all of you out there in the multiverse. I have of late, wherefore I know not, received a communiqué from the citizens of Terra-Prime."
"Terra prime?" Caitlin asks.
"Nerd," Cisco says.
"Pass," Wells says and they move to the next one. And this one seems to be a mime.
"Bonjour. Moi, je suis Harrison Wells." He greets them and continues on talking and none of them speak French.
"Never trust a Mime," Wells stated.
"Okay guys, we're 0-3 now. This is our last one." Caitlin tells them.
"She's right and it's from Earth-19," Cisco says and pulls it up.
This Harrison Wells looks normal, and a little enthusiastic and is wearing a fedora-like hat. "Hello, Hello, Hello. Hello, out there in the multiverse, whoever you may be. I really enjoyed cracking the cryptogram you broadcast. I like the cute trick, of embedding the secondary measures in the primary data string. It's clever. Most people wouldn't have thought of it. I caught it, and that's the point. You need a genius, I guess, to help you in your fight against these awful meta-hominids. Well, I got to tell you, to me, that sounds like fun. So...I'll enclose my curriculum vitae. You already know we speak the same language but take a look. Tell me what you think. Until our next communion. Oh, where are my manners? Thank you."
"Not bad." Cisco agrees.
"Not bad at all," Caitlin says and they look to Wells waiting for his opinion.
"Pass," Wells says and gets up to leave.
"What?" Cisco asks.
"Wait a minute. That guy cracked the code, and he wants to do it." Caitlin says.
"And he's nice and is not evil. That's a combination of Wells we haven't had thus far." Cisco comments.
"All my life, everyone I've ever hired to work for me, I have trusted my gut. My gut tells me that's not the guy." Wells says and now they're out of Harrison's as he walks off.
Peter swung his way over to Harry's apartment, alighting on the balcony with ease before proceeding indoors. Inside, he encountered Gwen, who was already there, her features marked by a noticeable concern.
"Guys, what is it?" Peter asked as he saw their looks of worry. "What's wrong?"
"Peter, someone is here," Gwen said in worry.
"Who?" Peter asks.
"Peter Parker!"
That voice. It sent shivers down Peter's spine as he recognized the tone of that voice. He turned slowly as to delay his need to see his face. And there he saw him. Norman Osborn. The psychopath that tormented him and his city for a year not too long ago. He was supposed to be dead.
"Norman!" Peter exclaimed as he got into a stance, preparing to fight. "How the hell are you alive?!"
"I know." Norman chuckled as he approached with a look of sadness. "It...it was odd. Look, I mean you no harm. In fact, the opposite. I want to help."
Peter wasn't buying it for a second. "And why would you want to help?"
"Peter," Harry called his attention. "He remembers Flashpoint."
Peter froze at that news and turned to Norman and wondered what to do with him.
Taking him to STAR Labs might not have been Peter's finest decision, yet it was his only option at that moment. Encountering a resurrected man wasn't unprecedented for them, especially after the incident with Harrison Wells. However, facing someone with whom they shared a dark past, and verifying it was indeed the same person, brought a new level of malevolence. The return of Norman Osborn from the dead was an unforeseen and chilling development.
"So..." Bobby broke the silence. "What does it feel like?"
"My death?" Norman asked as he looked around. "Don't really remember it. Last I remember, Goblin was setting off explosives in a warehouse."
"That's when you died," Peter muttered.
"So...Alchemy brought you back to life?" MJ asks.
"Yes." Norman shrugged. "I'm not entirely sure how. But when I woke up, it was in my grave and I was resurrected alone. Nobody was around, and one thing was on my mind. My family."
"And why would we believe you're some good person now?" Gwen asks. "After everything you put us through?"
"Because he knows it," Norman said as he eyed Barry.
Barry froze as he remembered Norman's life on Flashpoint. "He's...right." He sighed. "In Flashpoint, Norman wasn't the Green Goblin. He was a hero. Named the Iron Patriot."
"That isn't the name of someone trying to compensate for something at all." MJ scoffed at the name.
"I promise you, I come with no ill intentions." Norman proclaimed.
"Forgive us if we are not one to take a known terrorist who attacked my aunt, my home, and kidnapped my girlfriend, for his word." Peter snarled at him.
"Pete. I understand, but...I ran the tests myself." Harry assured Peter. "He has no trace of the enhancing drug that turned him into the Goblin."
"Still...even Norman was responsible for what happened." Iris seemed to be with Peter to not trust him.
"Yeah, but he was more or less just a slave to the Goblin." Peter sighed and knew a few ways to settle this. "Wanda, what do you think?"
Wanda saw Peter wanted to see what kind of reading she was getting from this guy. She was listening to everything that Norman said and knew that this was going to be tricky. But as she eyed Norman, she was trying to see if there were indeed any kind of tricks going on. But all she saw was someone who was indeed telling the truth.
"Wow...I am not getting a bad sense off of him." Wanda commented. "I wouldn't exactly go off of my word alone, but... I think we can at least give him a chance."
"We sure we wanna even risk it?" Bobby asked, remembering what Norman did. "He terrorized people. Attacked us."
"Only as the Goblin." Peter couldn't believe he was defending Norman. Then there was an alert on their scanners, getting them to stop and get to work on saving the city. "A fire downtown?"
"Think this is Top and Mirror Master?" MJ asks.
"Doesn't sound like them," Barry said. "But let's get down there and stop it from spreading." He then looked over to Caitlin and Wanda. "Keep an eye on him." He nodded towards Norman. "Don't let him out of your sight."
"Don't worry." Wanda nodded.
"We'll make sure he doesn't do anything," Caitlin assured.
Downtown, chaos erupted as flames raged through a chemical factory. Without hesitation, Spider-Man swung into action, crashing through the ceiling to assist in the evacuation efforts. Meanwhile, Bobby transformed into his icy alter ego, Iceman, and skillfully directed streams of ice toward the chemical fires in an attempt to cool them down. Since Jessica was now known, she swung in to help out as Spider-Woman and shot out webbing to stop the gas from causing a spark to explode in the area.
Not far behind, Barry, with his lightning speed, rushed onto the scene and joined forces with Spider-Man to ensure the safety of the factory workers. Inside the factory, Bobby continued to unleash his icy powers, doing everything possible to combat the dangerous fires and pave the way for a successful evacuation.
They got everyone out of the facility and quickly got them to safety just as the paramedics arrived. "Thank you!" Someone cried as they ran off, either off to the medics or fire department.
"What started this fire?" Barry wondered as he looked around the area. "You guys have anything?"
"Uh, no," Cisco said. "Doesn't appear to be anything on what they were working on in there."
As the ground beneath them began to tremble, the four of them exchanged worried and confused glances. Suddenly, Peter and Jessica's instincts kicked in, prompting them to react swiftly. They leaped out of harm's way, but what came running inadvertently collided with Bobby and Barry in the process.
Just moments later, a deafening crash resonated through the air as a car was violently struck, engulfing it in a fiery explosion. The source of the chaos was revealed to be an imposing figure, towering over the bystanders. Clad in a formidable gray exoskeleton resembling a rhinoceros, the massive and muscular being possessed a humanoid visage adorned with two menacing horns.
The creature was holding a container in its hands as Peter and Jessica got a good look at the creature. "Now who's big and tough?! Me! The Rhino!"
"Was that...?" Jessica was confused about what he was looking at.
"A giant rhino?" Peter finished his sister's thought.
Jessica and Peter looked at one another and back at the giant creature. "You go first or me?" She asks.
"Let's do this!" Peter called as he raced forward, leaping into the air and shooting two webs to tackle the Rhino.
As the Rhino lunged forward, he grabbed the webbing with an unexpected burst of strength, swiftly pulling Peter downward and slamming him forcefully into the ground. Peter let out a pained groan, clearly taken by surprise at the Rhino's overwhelming power.
In a swift and decisive move, Jessica sprang into action, launching a concentrated blast of her bio-electricity in an attempt to subdue the Rhino. However, barely missing a beat, the Rhino seized Peter, deftly pivoted, and hurled him directly toward Jessica.
Moving at a breakneck speed and caught off guard mid-punch, Jessica was unable to evade the oncoming collision as Peter collided with her, sending them both hurtling through the air. The Rhino let loose an earth-shattering bellow, swiftly scooping up the canisters before swiftly retreating from the chaotic scene, leaving the heroes unable to pursue.
"That's new."
The team went back to STAR Labs where they were patched up by Caitlin as they explained what happened to them.
"A rhino?" Cisco asks. "What is with this city and animal-based criminals?"
"Yeah, we do end up fighting a lot of those guys." Peter had to agree while Catilin patched up his head. "Ow."
"Sorry," Caitlin said. "So, what did he steal?"
"Well, he attacked an old OsCorp facility," Harry said.
"Any ideas what you were keeping there, Norman?" MJ asked, eying Norman who was looking at the screens.
Norman watched the news showing the fire and the Rhino attacking the cops. "That's one of OsCorp's old research facilities. Curtis Connors was the head scientist. Genetic splicing to be exact."
"The same that turned Connors into the Lizard?" Gwen asks in worry.
"Well..." Peter muttered, remembering his involvement in that one.
"What could he want to do with that?" Teresa wonders.
"If he knows how to synthesize it, he could make himself much stronger than what you saw tonight," Norman warned them, using their computers to show the progression from man mutating into a rhino. "Whoever this is, he must have somehow gotten his hands on a small dose of the formula and is after more."
"So, when the formula wears off..." Caitlin was starting to get it.
"He turns into something we can punch," Bobby was able to get it.
"Harry, is there anywhere dealing with that formula still?" Gwen wonders.
"Uh, well, there is a... new shipment," Harry sighed. "We were working on the genetics to try and work out saving some of Connors' research."
"When?" Barry asks.
"In about the next hour or so," Harry said as he took out his phone. "I'll make some calls and see if I can get the information where exactly."
"You do that," Peter nodded. He then turned towards the door to see Miles and Anjelica returning. "Where were you two?"
"Sorry, we were doing a bit of training. Missed the alert." Angelica said, noticing their bruises. "Yikes, what, were you guys hit by a bus?"
"A rhino," Teresa stated.
"Seriously?" Miles asks. Then he looked over and noticed Norman Osborn. "Osborn!"
Angelica lit her fists on fire, turning to face Goblin, preparing to strike. Bobby sighed and shot off some ice to cool down her fire. "Calm down," He told them. "He's fine."
"He is?" Angelica asked, looking over to Norman and then over to Peter. "Really?"
"So far." Wells shrugged.
Then their alerts went off, getting them to look and see the alert. "Robbery at First National. Suspects match Sculler and Dillon."
"Hey, guys." Harry ran back into the room. "There's another shipment of the serums coming through the railyard passing the city tonight. Within the hour."
"Sounds like our Rhino is likely gonna be there," Bobby commented.
"Sounds to me like we are going to have to split up," Peter stated, seeing Barry come to the same conclusion.
"I'll drop you guys off at the train yard." Barry nodded. "Get ready to head out."
"Hey, why don't I come with you?" Jesse asks Barry. "With them on Rhino, you could use the help." Barry seemed hesitant about the idea. "I mean, we have been training for a reason, right?"
"Alright," Barry saw he was shorthanded. "Just follow my lead, and stay close."
Barry and Jesse got Peter, Bobby, Angelica, and Miles to the train yards, getting himself and Jesse to the robbery in the process. Bobby looked around, seeing the entire track yard, which seemed to be abandoned.
"So... we gonna just wait around, see if our two-ton guy shows up?" Bobby asks.
"That's the plan," Angelica said as she leaned on the old cars. "You good Pete?"
Peter was staring off, thinking about earlier at school. "Oh, what? Sorry, I was thinking of that Alex kid from school. What he said to me... you don't think I've become popular, do you?"
Bobby snickered a little before letting out a burst of laughter. "What?!" He asked while laughing. "You?!" He just laughed even harder.
Peter squinted his eyes, seeing Bobby was at least being honest. "I can always count on you to bring me back down to Earth, Bobby."
"It's cool, man," Miles told him. "People change."
Peter wished that was true. "Not Flash. I thought he quit bullying, but apparently, he just moved on to the next kid. I was never really afraid of Flash, even before I got these powers. Mostly since I had Teresa there for me, but Alex is just a lonely kid. He needs help. I should do something about it. I still could-"
"Nah," Bobby stated. "That's not you. You take the high road. Get him some help. Go for revenge, and you become the bully. Be the change you want, don't try and fight fire with fire."
"Since when did you get so wise?" Peter asks.
"Meh, a few weeks on Attilan will do it to ya." Bobby shrugged, feeling the ground beginning to shake. "Seems our train is here."
"Uh..." Angelica got a better look and noticed what was calming. "That's not only the train."
The team saw that the Rhino was coming in charging towards the train. The Rhino didn't take even a second before he crashed right into the train, sending it crashing while the heroes quickly got to work. Bobby leaped on the other end of the crashing train and shot out a giant stream of ice to slow it down.
When a second train was coming, Bobby shot with his back against the train so he could try and create a dam to stop the train from crashing. Miles was shooting webbing to try and cushion the train from ramming into the train.
"We've got this! Get the crew!" Miles called out to Angelica and Peter.
Angelica flew over as the Rhino used his strength to gash a hole in the train. Peter swung over and started to evacuate the train while Angelics shot a hole to help them evacuate. As they did, Rhino was picking up the canisters of rhino serum and making his escape.
"Oh, no you don't!" Miles cried as he leaped onto the aid and charged up a venom blast. Rhino was sent flying as Bobby shot a pond of ice to keep him from moving. He ended up dropping the canister in the process. "Ha, try walking on that."
"Rhino will do...something to you!" Rhino promised.
"Uh, he okay?" Peter asked.
"Maybe he hit his head or something," Angelica shrugged as she flew over.
"I hear you!" Rhino stated, beginning to find his footing. "No one pushes Rhino around!"
Rhino then backhanded Bobby and sent him flying, causing Peter to react and try to save him. Miles shrieked as he tried to dodge the hit, and Angelica managed to shoot him with fire, melting the ice under his feet. Jessica quickly shot out two webs on his hands, but Rhino threw her into the air and slammed her into the ground, causing Jessica to groan.
Bobby slammed into the ground, his ice armor shattered as his hand smacked against a train box. "Gah!"
"You good?" Peter asks.
"No..." Bobby groaned. "My arm... you gotta look out!"
Peter's senses whet off the moment he looked and saw Rhono was charging towards him. He grabbed Bobby and swung out of the way as the Rhino picked up the containers again.
"I'll deal with you another day!" Rhino promises as he runs off. "For now, I'm taking my medicine!"
"Medicine?" Angelica asks.
"What does that mean?" Jessica asked as she crawled out of the crater. "Ow...something hurts."
"We should get you guys back to STAR Labs," Peter told his team. "Wonder how well Flash is doing."
"We keep this up. Baby, we'll be set for life." Scudder tells Top as they are making their escape.
"Then what are you waiting for?" Rosalind asks and they start kissing and making their way to a mirror when Barry gets in their way with Jesse.
"Yeah, So we're not gonna let you leave here with that," Barry says as he and Jesse show up at another entrance.
"Hey, look at this. Flash. Heard a lot about you." Scudder tells him and looks at Jesse. "Can't say the same about you."
"The name is Jesse Quick," Jesse says.
"So I'm sorry, Scudder, but your crime spree ends here," Barry says and starts approaching them.
"Oh, I don't think any of you have much of a say in it," Scudder states and backs away. "I'm gonna take whatever I want."
"I thought you were looking for Leonard Snart," Barry states.
"Why bother? His reign is over." Scudder replies to him. "There's a new king in town."
"And I'm the queen," Rosalind tells them.
While they were talking, Scudder made it to a reflective surface and escaped, while Barry and Jesse run out to locate them. Barry and Jesse watch them making their way upward a building and trying to escape
"Stay here. I'm not kidding," Barry tells Jesse as he sped off.
Jesse did the exact opposite of that as she followed Barry as they ran across the rooftops and side of the buildings to close in on Top and Mirror Master. Top was left on a roof and Barry chased after Mirror Master.
"Nice skirt, Top," Jesse says as Peter gets ready to fight her off.
"Top. I like it. Because they spin, spin, spin." Rosalind says and Jesse starts feeling off balance.
Jesse then ends up tripping and starts falling and Barry makes a quick second decision and stops chasing Scutter as he runs and manages to catch her mid-fall and get her on the ground.
"I can't get my balance," Jesse says when Barry looked for Mirror Master
"Don't worry, you'll be okay," Barry promises.
"But you won't," Scudder tells him grabs Barry's shoulder, and drags him into a mirror before escaping. "Good luck getting him out!"
"Well, at least we weren't the only ones having a bad night," Peter commented as he saw his brother trapped in a mirror.
Jesse has already stormed off, angry at herself for what happened while Wally went to talk to her. Seems she was second-guessing her decision to be ready to go back home. Jessica was standing there with her shoulder displaced, waiting for some medical attention since Caitlin was currently helping Bobby with his leg. She just didn't want to be standing around, so she came to see what their plan was to help Barry.
"?ereh fo tuo em teg ot woh wonk ew oD" Barry asks and none of them know what he just said.
"What the hell?" Angelica asks.
"?gniyas m'I tahw wonk neve syug uoy fo yna oD" Barry asks again.
"What's he saying?" Joe asks. "Is that some sorta mirror language?"
"Mirrors show objects in reverse, maybe he's speaking in reverse." Jessica commented.
"Maybe what he's saying makes sense in reverse," Teresa shrugged.
"Only one way to find out," Cisco says and grabs a device from his desk.
"What are you looking for?" Jessica wonders.
"You ever seen Twin Peaks?" Cisco asks, searching another drawer.
"Sure," Jessica shrugged.
"Really?" Cisco was surprised to hear. "We're gonna get along swell if you're gonna be sticking around."
"She's our sister, dude, she's gonna be around," Peter confirmed.
"This is an old backmasking trick they used for the Man from Another Place, where they record his audio backward and then play it forwards," Cisco explained and placed the device on the mirror.
"Like the Ozzie's Osbourne records," Joe says.
"Sure, let's go with that," Cisco shrugged.
"Okay, Barry, say something," Iris says and he does and Cisco forgot to put it on.
Cisco activates it and they understand him.
"Get me out of here!" Barry begs them.
"Okay, now we understand you...how do we get him out?" Joe asks.
"Have you tried phasing?" Miles asks.
"Yes. It's not working." Barry tells them.
"If Scudder used this mirror as a wormhole, then these molecules are in a hyper state of flux," Harry says.
"All we need is something really cold to slow them down," Jessica states.
"What about Bobby?" Wanda asks.
"Oh, no," Caitlin stated as she walked in for Jessica. "Bobby is out of commission for a while. That Rhino fight got his arm broken. He needs to let it heal. No using powers."
"Okay, well we're going to need to find another way then," Cisco says and leaves.
"There's an old experiment that a old employee of mine, Donald Gill. He was fired for hiding criminal activity, but some of his gear he was working on might still be at OsCorp." Norman offered. "That could help."
"Maybe, I'll get some calls," Harry said as he and his dad walked off to make the call.
"Now, let's go get that arm set in place," Caitlin tells Jessica as they walk off.
"Oh, thank god!" Jessica exclaimed as she walked off.
"I'm gonna see how Bobby is doing," Peter told his sisters. "T, Wanda, you good keeping him company?"
"Yeah, we're fine." Wanda promised, watching Peter and the others leave them alone.
Barry sighed as he watched Teresa take a seat on the stairs while Wanda looked over herself in her outfit in the mirror. Barry was a little uncomfortable with what was going on and looked over to Wanda.
"What...are you doing?" Barry asks.
"Does this skirt make my butt look big?" Wanda asks.
Barry scoffed and looked anywhere but at his sister, not believing that's what she was worried about. Yet again she wasn't worried about Barry since she figured they would find a way to get him out like they always do.
"Ow." Bobby groaned as he saw his arm was in a cast.
"Man, the first time I've seen you injured like that," Peter commented.
"I'll live." Bobby groaned. "How's Barry?"
"Stuck in the looking glass at the moment," Peter said with a sigh. "Harry's making some calls, and Wells is working on a possible solution."
"Yah!" Jessica screamed, getting them to turn and see Caitlin set her arm back. "That hurt!"
"You dislocated your arm. It's going to hurt." Caitlin said as she placed some ice on it, allowing her healing factor to do the work. "But give it about five minutes and you'll be fine."
"Thanks, Caitlin," Jessica said with a sigh. "I know we're not really family, but thanks for helping me."
"That's not true," Caitlin told her. "You're Peter and Barry's sister, that means you're now a member of our family."
Jessica smiled and blushed a little. "Thanks."
Peter sighed as he saw they were okay. "Alright, you two heal up. I'm gonna head out there to see if I can find the Rhino."
All night. That's how long Peter was searching.
All freaking night!
Peter showed up to school in exhaustion. He found his friends while he was stumbling while trying to stay awake. Barry was still trapped in the mirror as the adults were working on a hypothetical way of getting him out. Bobby has been absent since he broke his arm. Jessica already had her arm healed by the end of the night, so she was in the clear.
"Yikes," Gwen was the first to comment on their friend. "You do not look well."
"Thanks, I feel just as awful," Peter stated as he yawned. "I was up all night looking for that freaking rhino."
Then they heard a shriek, getting them to look and see Flash standing over the remains of his car. "My car!"
"Whoa," Jessica said. "Uh, you should definitely think about getting some protection, Flash. This seems serious."
Flash then looked over to the other students who were watching with worry. Flash then changed back to his tough guy act and scoffed it off. "Please. This is nothing for a guy like me. I'll just buy another car. This is just some dweeb trying to scare me."
"You think this is some prank?" Peter asks. "Come on, Flash, this is serious. You better take this seriously or-"
"Or else, what?" Flash asked sarcastically. "Some needle-neck like Alex here will get me?"
"Can we stop worrying for him now?" Teresa wonders.
Flash then pushed Alex as he walked off. "Move it or lose it!"
Peter sighed as he then helped Alex back up. "Sorry about him, again. you know what they say about bullies. It's more about them than you."
"It's about to be all about him," Alex stated, picking up his papers, missing the canister sliding out of his bag.
Alex then marched off with a grumble as he didn't notice the missing canister. Teresa walked over and picked up the canister and noticed the picture of a rhino on it.
"Guys?" Teresa showed them the canister.
"Oh, god," Harry said in worry. "That means..."
"Alex is the Rhino?" Peter came to the same conclusion.
Meanwhile, back at STAR Labs, Barry was watching as the team was beginning to set up a device around them. Seems they came up with an idea using the old cold gun and a few alterations with Bobby.
They then drag the machine into the speed labs and start setting everything up.
"What's that?" Iris asks.
"This is how we get him out of there," Wells explains as Cisco and Norman drag the end of the device.
They set everything up quickly and start freezing the mirror but it's still not cold enough to get him out. Barry tried to phase his way out, but the temperature wasn't cold enough.
"We got to get it colder somehow," Norman tells them.
"it's only at -209 degrees." Caitlin told them.
"I thought you guys could make it cold enough to get him out of there," Wanda said, watching it fail.
"Okay, this is a highly advanced molecular decelerator that's being powered by a cryosleep engine, and we just kinda improvised it in the last eight hours, and half of that was spent making sure were not going to be stabbed in the back by the freak who wore all green and flew on a glider." Cisco recapped his night to her. "So just cut us a little slack, please?"
"Just keep trying to phase out, Barry." Mirman offers since they can't do anything else when the metahuman alerts go off.
"Metahuman alert," Caitlin tells them.
When Caitlin watches everyone leave, an idea forms inside her mind. She recalled how they said Bobby might be able to make it cold enough, but knew he wasn't going to be much help in his state. Sneaking behind it, she goes behind the mirror and starts to quickly use her powers to get the mirror to reach absolute zero.
"Central City municipal bank just got robbed," Cisco tells them when Barry comes speeding in.
"How?" Wanda asked as she ran over and hugged her brother.
"We'll fight it out later. Right now we need to stop Scudder." Barry says.
"Well, he's robbing the bank, got anything we can use there?" Angelica asks.
"I got an idea. " Barry tells her. "We're gonna use a new trick and an old friend."
Peter and Jessica swung over and landed on the roof of the school as they looked to see if they could find Alex. It wasn't hard to spot him as he was hiding among the students. He then took out a vial and before the two could intervene, they watched as he chugged it down and Alex turned into the infamous rhino that they were looking for.
"Okay, I wasn't expecting this," Jessica admitted. "You have this many surprises in your life?"
"Well, there was this one time I learned I had a half-sister." Peter quipped sarcastically.
"Fair," Jessica said. "Should we...?"
"Let's stop him!" Peter cried.
Rhino then started to shove the buses out of his way and scared the students. That was when Jessica and Peter came swinging in and started to try and stop him.
"Flash Thompson is going to pay!" Rhino promises.
"I can't believe it," Peter said as he yanked to try and keep Alex from escaping. "Big tough rhino is just a scared little kid."
"Seriously, dude, there are better ways to deal with a bully than becoming one!" Jessica stated.
"rhino is not little!" Alex screamed. "I'm strong!"
"A big strong monster maybe," Jessica stated.
"I...monster...you!" Rhino promises.
"Uh, that's not a sentence," Jessica commented.
"Alex, if you take revenge out on a bully, then you become the bully," Peter tried to get through him. "You'll just become the big guy bearing on the little guy!"
"just like you!" Rhino cried, grabbing their webbing and yanking on it. "Just like all of you!"
Jessica and Peter are thrown and slammed into the road where they create a crater from their mass strength. Jessica groaned as she stood up and looked at Rhino charging at them.
"Yeah, but when we do it, it's justice being served!" Jessica cried, racing towards Rhino with a charged fist of bio-electricity. "Like this!"
But Rhino managed to dodge her strike and swatted her like a bug. Sending Jessica flying into the school and slamming through a window.
Peter jumped up and saw Rhino was eyeing Flash. "Flash, get on that bus! Now!"
"Sorry, but Flash doesn't take the bus," Flash stated. "Even for you, Spidey."
Peter just moved out of the way and showed that Rhino was charging his way towards them. Flash seemed to change his tune pretty quickly when he saw he was charging toward them.
"Hey, there's my bus! I've gotta go!" Flash cried as he ran off towards the bus.
Peter then shot out several dozen web nets to try and show the freak down. But it didn't help as Rhino came through and smashed into Peter. Peter was sent flying and Flash managed to get onto the bus.
Rhino then grabbed the back of the bus and began to try and pry the back open when Jessica came flying in with Miles. Luckily Peter sent out a message to the team back at STAR Labs, and since Barry was still trapped at the time, he didn't bother to tell him. They both charged up bio-electricity and shocked Rhino instantly sending him screaming.
"Go! Go!" Jessica cried as the bus drove off.
Rhino then slammed into a car and started to pick up some other cars. "If I can't have Flash, I'll destroy you!"
Peter jumped back into the game as he webbed the car before it could hit the school. "Come on, Alex! You've gotta stop this!"
Rhino was hit by the car and he was sent flying. Peter then leaped onto Rhino's back as he tried to fight him off. Peter however kept on crawling around him snd was trying to keep him infuriated. He wondered how long he needed to keep this up before Alex burned through the serum.
"Look, Alex, we're giving you one last chance to call off your grudge match!" Peter warned him.
"Get off!" Rhino cried, trying to shake Peter off like a rodeo attraction. "You don't under...under..."
"Understand?" Peter took a guess what he was saying. "Oh, but I do."
"Nobody picks on Spider-Man," Alex stated.
"Well, Rhino derailed a train. Hurt my best friend. Smashed a car. And tried to attack a school." Peter stated, trying to web Rhino down, wondering if maybe calming him will help. "Your power is your mind, Alex. You used that to steal the drink that gives you the fake power to bully someone. You're becoming like Flash. And one more thing-" Peter was then flung off and slammed into the wall. "Ow."
Jessica came flying in and slammed into Rhino, using her bio-electricity as a energy boost to slam Rhino into the ground. Miles jumped down and webbed Rhino to the ground.
"Whoa, that's awesome!" Miles cried in glee. "How'd you do that?"
"I don't know. Something that came to me." Jessica shrugged. "Maybe I saw it in an anime."
"Guys?" Peter for their attention, seeing Rhino getting back up. "Let's end this, shall we?"
Peter, Jessica, and Miles all used their strength together and sucker-punched Rhino to knock him back. He was knocked down and fell unconscious. Rhino then morphed back to Alex, still unconscious.
"I hope the others are having a better time."
Turns out they were having an easier time. Barry managed to trick Scutter into a trap using a hologram of Snart since he's still MIA. They weren't aware that he was recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D., not that would matter anyway. Jesse and Angelica managed to team up and made quick work of Top, knocking her out using her speed and Angelica's fire.
"I know weird, right?" Barry said. "In science, we refer this to the Dorset effect. It's an infinite reflective loop that even you can't escape." He explains when he then places metahuman cuffs on Scudder. "Good luck getting out."
And with that all wrapped up, they placed Scutter into a complete full foolproof reflective cell. Joe even seemed to even get a date with the district attorney, Cecile Horton. Bobby managed to get his arm healed up, and there was only one thing left.
The departure of Harrison and Rhein E-2 friends, and the arrival of their new Harrison Wells.
"Guys, I've never vibed across 18 dimensions before," Cisco states trying to keep the breach open as long as he can to get the new Wells.
"Just a little bit longer," Wells says when the breach flashes and the new Wells exits the breach and sees them.
"Greetings, earthlings." He says in a deep voice and that worries them for a second. "Just kidding." He says while laughing. "I don't really talk like that."
"Wells with a sense of humor and knows how to smile," MJ comments to Peter. "That's new.
"Hey, sharpshooter." New Wells greets Cisco and sees Wells. "Now you... you're handsome."
"I know," Wells says. "Likewise, I'm sure. Harrison."
"Harrison." Wells greets them as they shake hands. "You can call me HR."
"Okay, this is the team, then," Harry says looking back at everyone. "This is Cisco Ramon. He can do anything." He says and HR shakes his hand in a strange way.
"This is dr. Caitlin Snow. She is brilliant. Currently in a relationship." Harry says and HR shakes her hand.
"With this man, Barry Allen. Or commonly known by his hero name as this earth's Flash." Wells says and HR greets the hero.
HR then did the same handshake with him. "Welcome to Earth-1," Barry said.
"Earth-1. That's weird." HR commented.
"This is Peter Parker. Or I guess sometimes Allen, hard to tell." Wells said, gesturing to Peter. "Spider-Man."
"That's cool, we have a Spider-Man on my earth," HR tells Peter who's surprised to hear that there are others.
"You do?" Peter asks. "Cool."
"That's Mary Jane Watson or MJ," Wells said as he gestured to her.
"Hi." MJ gave a friendly wave.
"That's Harry Osborn, he's brilliant." Wells complimented. "That's his father, Norman. But I'd keep my eyes on him."
"Welcome," Harry said.
"That's Bobby Drake, Iceman. Snow's cousin." Wells introduced.
"Okay, we don't have to go through all the tears again, do we, gang?" Wells asks them as they got their bags.
"Well, did I..did I cry last time you left?" Cisco asks.
"I was talking about myself," Wells explains.
"Just remember, you guys always have a place with us," Angelica said, giving her friends a hug. "It'd be full having you guys there."
"Same here," Peter said, hugging her.
"Hey, don't worry about him. There's only one Wells." Cisco says before giving him a hug.
"Oh, one last thing. The decelerator, it wasn't working." Wells tells Cisco and that's confusing them.
"That would mean Barry got out some other way," Cisco says and looks confused. "How is that possible?"
"You tell me," Wells said.
"Earth-2 has got itself some mighty heroes protecting it," Barry said.
"Well, I did learn from the best," Jesse said.
"Okay, you guys ready? Cisco, out with the old, in with the new." Wells says and Cisco starts opening the breach.
"You'll never be old to us, Wells," Caitlin tells him.
Wells just looks back at her with a smile. Miles, Angelica, Wells, and Jesse were getting ready to leave while he was in the middle of warning them not to do something, but Jesse sped off before he could finish.
"Oh, that was great, we were all like what was he gonna say? That's cool. I'm starving. You guys have Big Belly Burger?" HR comments and asks and they see the energized personality is something they'll need to get used to.
"Some things never change," Caitlin says.
That night, Peter and Bobby were getting ready for a double date as it seemed Crystal was going to be making an appearance tonight. As he was preparing at home, Caitlin was also preparing for a date with Barry, which meant a quick dinner and a movie at home.
"So, just to be clear, it's safe to come home tonight, right?" Bobby asked Caitlin as he got his shoes on. "Because I can crash at Peter's if you and your fiancé wanna..."
"God, Bobby, how old are you?" Caitlin asked with a scoff in the shower. "Look, I'll text you if something happens."
"Text me if nothing happens," Bobby tells her. "Because if something happens, I'll think you won't stop to send a text."
"Get out of here, or I'll make you late." Caitlin dared him.
"You're in the shower." Bobby reminded her.
Caitlin scoffed as she just continued to shower as Bobby left. As he did leave, the shower began to get colder to the point where it froze over. Caitlin looked at it in fear and terror. She quickly got out of the shower and saw a streak of white in her hair. She quickly cut off the streak and was worried that she was becoming Killer Frost.
