Anna stood over a giant waterfall with her brother as they peered down. She wasn't wear her suit, but instead jeans and a white shirt, including a brown leather jacket.

"If it makes you feel any better, Evel Knievel cleared a line of cars that was twice this long, and he didn't even have superpowers, unless you count that sweet-ass ride." Cisco broke into Barry and Harry's conversation. Barry was going to push his speed, something that Anna had already done, passing Barry's high score.

"If you don't feel ready, you probably shouldn't do it." Caitlin moved towards the group.

Barry sighed."Look, Zoom's still out there. And once I find a way back to Earth-2, I have to be faster than him. And, I mean, right now... I wasn't even fast enough to save Jay. I have to try." He said, moving past Caitlin as they all stood on the sidelines, exept for Barry as he started to speed, jumping off and crossing the waterfall.

"He's gonna make it!" Caitlin yelled in exitment as Anna held onto her hand. Anna always held onto someones hand, whether it was Iris, Barry, Cisco, or even Caitlin. She always had anxiety, so whenever she grabbed onto someones hand when she was afraid, they all knew to rub circles into her palm. Barry almost crossed the dam, until he started falling lower.

"No!" Caitlin yelled, moving forwards.

"Oh, Damn." Harry moved along with her as they watched multiple drones carry Barry up with a net. Cisco said something sarcastic, and Anna shot him a death stare.

"Dammit." Anna cursed.





"So how'd it go?" Jesse asked when they had arrived back at Star Labs.

"Well, he's not a red splat on the side of a mountain." Harry added.

"What else can we try?" Barry asked.

"A bigger canyon?" Cisco said sarcasticly as Anna sat down on a chair. "Okay, fine, no more canyons."Cisco added when he saw the look Barry gave him.

"Let it go for now." Harry added.

"Barry, we've been working on this all week. You're tired, we're tired." Caitlin added as she leaned on the top of the chair Anna was on.

"Yeah, what we need is some downtime. Downtime leads to increased productivity, ergo we have to have fun. And the best way to have fun is for us to go out to the club. Am I right, Team Flash? Let's get turnt! No, but seriously, we need a break." Cisco moved towards Barry.

"I mean, I can barely get drunk. So I wouldn't mind." Anna smirked.

"You know, I think Cisco's right, and if I'm saying we need a break, then you know it's serious." Caitlin looked over at Barry.

"All right, let's go out tonight."

"Oh, yeah. Can I go?" Jesse looked over to her father. Harry gave her a look.





Anna took a sip of her drink as the 5 of them sat near the bar. Barry reached for the pretzels as Jesse's watch kept beeping.

"Oh, God, sorry. It keeps doing that. My dad made me wear it." Jesse motioned to the contraption.

"It's all good." Anna smiled.

"I'm really glad you came, Jesse, even though this place is less than ideal." Caitlin yelled over the loud music.

"Toast?" Barry asked as 5 shot glasses were laid in front of them.

"To Jay." Cisco said.

"I wonder what Jay would say if he was here right now." Caitlin wondered.
