Thank you for the support on the last chapter.


"That bitch." I complain as I take an Advil for the raging headache I have from the psychic attack DeVoe did on me.

"You're very lucky Anna. If you weren't a meta the aneurysm DeVoe inflicted on you could have put you into a serious coma." Caitlin explains to me showing me my scans.

"He can do that now?" Ralph asks surprised. Damian leans on me wanting to give me comfort. He hasn't left my side since we came back and I was injured.

"He did absorb Dominic's powers." Iris points out.

"Iris is right. And we never knew his full extent of his abilities." Caitlin adds.

"I haven't had this big of a headache since Cait and I got super drunk and..."

"And we will never mention that night again." Caitlin cuts me off.

"It was a good night." Barry smirks thinking back about it.

"I have already thought of different ways to kill that body-snatching little bitch." Damian comments. "And a lot of them require me roasting him until flesh melts off his body and I force him to eat his..."

"Damian!" Barry scolds him. "No more talk of torture."

"Actually." I speak up with a smile on my face. "It's actually kind of soothing. The headache is fading."

"You two are disturbing." Barry comments to us. Damian and shrug our shoulders.

"I think we're pretty normal." I tease him and Damian nods in agreement.

"Get on board String Bean or get the hell out."

"Okay dial it down." I whisper to Damian.

"Hello!" I turn to see  Izzy on the monitor in the Pipeline. "Are y'all ever going to let me out?"

"You locked her in the Pipeline?" I ask them.

"We...it was a busy time.' Cisco defends.

We finally let Izzy out. Cisco, Ralph, Barry keep their masks on but I feel like it's pointless since Izzy sees who Caitlin and Iris are along with Damian. "So you're telling me that this three-foot-tall chick that tried to kill me is actually this Clifford DeVoe?" Izzy asks for clarification.

"Oh, yeah, 100% dude." Cisco comments as he runs tests on her.

"DeVoe is transferring his consciousness to the other bodies of all the other people who were on the bus and got their powers with you." Caitlin explains.

"Wait, this...this little girl wants my body?" Izzy asks.

"More like your life and soul but your body works too." Damian mutters.

"That's why we're trying to protect you." Barry speaks up. "DeVoe's already taken most of his targets" He moves aside letting Izzy see our board of bus metas.

"No, this ain't happening. Not now. I only got my powers recently. And now it's like I've got a deeper connection to my music than I've ever had. I'm about to record the rest of my new album. I'm about to go on tour..."

"Izzy, your album can wait. This threat is real." Barry tries to urge Izzy to understand the seriousness of this.

"So is my big break." Izzy is seething.

"We're talking about your music career over some bastard in a three-foot bitch taking over your body. Now, which is more important?" I snap at Izzy who thinks her music career is the only thing that matters. Especially after she saw what DeVoe was able to do.
