There was no way to describe how frustrated Cisco was feeling at this moment, his fists tightly closed. He just blew out his secret, or was going to if he was to tell everyone about the vision he just had. But, how could he say nothing and stand there while his best friend might still be alive? He needed

‘Cisco! Please come, he’s…he’s …’’ The distress, the pain, the tears in Iris’ voice woke up totally this time. He sat up on the end in one quick movement.

“Please-e-e-e help her!” Evan carried on putting on a show for the officers. “Felicia, No, Don’t Leave Me!”

Labs van, a group including Caitlin, Cisco, Joe and Iris. They had Wally waiting for them at the labs. There was still a couple of months to go before celebrating the first full year Wally’s been in Central City and damn, that poor kid went through more adventure and misadventures than more people in a lifetime. Even after being captured by Zoom, Wally still somehow felt like the last four months had been the worst part of the year. He barely had time to really get to know Barry, learned about his secret identity less than two weeks before he got taken. Wally tried his best to help, but he wasn’t a cop, he wasn’t a hacker, there wasn’t anything he could do. Guilt overtook him, force him into isolation. The time he called Barry a coward when he went to fight King Sharp burned his mind, he should’ve know…Now that Barry was coming back home, Wally had no idea what he would say once the boy wake up…The nightmare wasn’t over just yet.

Don't worry, you're not alone in this.''

“I fell,” Madge answers through gritted teeth, clutching her calf tightly as she blinks out tears from her eyes as quickly as she can. It was just her luck that she’d fall off the wall like a complete idiot right after being told to quit. Maybe the odds really weren’t in her favor.

When Barry’s figure appeared right in front of him, it relieved him to see Barry looked ok, so far, as he was stretching his limbs on the ground, sitting up, before easily moving back on his feet. The detective had no idea how he would be able to stand and do nothing once Barry’s pain will really kick it.

''It's not that. I just can't explain it, it just didn't feel familiar all the sudden.'' He took a pause, looking down. ''Please, Iris, just let me rest, I promise I'll be fine.''

Terry looked at his watch. “What’s taking her so long?” said Terry. “She is supposed to be here by now.”

''Iris told me what you were about to do.'' Whispered Caitlin to her engineer friend, gently putting her hand on his back. ''You shouldn’t do this alone. ''

Eyelids flashed open, sharp stinging pains abruptly came ten minutes to the second of its predicted time. They immediately reached up and grabbed their upper arms, the origin of the sharp pain rested there. Some squeezed it tight to try to cease the painful discomfort that persistent with seizing effects.

I was only eight. You were nine. And Rayne was born that year. I worry that he will be lost and vulnerable without us,” Anna said.

'Take it easy, Iris.'' Said Julian as he took over the police officer who first rushed to help the woman to stay upright and the CSI guided her to the closest chair.
