"Hey." Anna said as she walked into the room with Big Belly Burger Bags.

"After running some comparative data, it appears that you, Reverse Flash, and Zoom are moving your legs at essentially the same speed." Caitlin pointed to the screen as Anna set down the food and joined them.

"Then why are they so much faster than him?" Cisco questioned.

"Best I can tell, with each stride their feet spend less time on the ground, thus propelling them forward much faster." Caitlin explained. Anna started eating out of the fries as they watched them talk.

"But what if the reason you haven't been able to run as fast as him yet is because you just can't?"





Anna walked into the West house with Wally.

"Hey, sorry we are late." Wally apologized. Joe placed down the food while reapeating 'Ow' multiple times.

"Dad! Mittens!" Iris scolded as they all bursted into laughter.





"Well, I really like to read the journals of the classic engineers, so their engine designs, how they increase horsepower, and learn from the best, I guess." Wally explained.

"You read their journals?"

"Mmm. I mean, it's not like I can just go and talk to Enzo Ferrari or Ferdinand Porsche 'cause they dead, but..." Wally trailed off.

"I got to go." Barry excused himself from the table.

"Bar you haven't even touched the food." Anna shot him a look.

"Yeah, no, I'm sorry. I just, um... I just realized the key to a case I've been working on, so I'm gonna just... thank you, Wally. Whoo! Um, sorry, guys. I'll be... I'll be back later." Barry stuttered as he ran out the door, almost bumping into a lamp.

"That dude gets weirder everytime I see him." Wally muttered. Anna chuckled and took a sip of her wine.


Anna joined Barry, Caitlin, and Cisco in the time vault after being filled in on what they had did. Barry plugged in the small device, nothing happened.

"After everything I just went through...this doesn't even work!" Barry slammed the object, and multiple pictures appeared.

"Woah." Anna added.

"We got it." Barry smiled.





"Okay, we're here guys. You got our location?" Barry asked as himself and Anna had the machines on their chests.

"Yeah." Cisco said through comms. "Let's see how long it takes you to get back here. On my count. Three, two, one."

Both speedsters started to race through the city, Anna almost beating Barry due to the device. They both started to run faster and faster, dodging cars, when they suddenly jumped through a blue portal, appearing in a feild.

"The hell?" Anna questioned before she heard screams in the distance and her brother sped off, Anna trailing behind as he raced up a building and grabbed a girl that was falling down, dragging her back to the field.


"You're on fire! I... Nope. I'm... You don't seem that bothered by the fact that you're on fire." Barry tried to fan the flames.

"I didn't need you to save me." The girl said.

"You just fell from a skyscraper lady." Anna crossed her arms.

"So if I hadn't been there, you would have gone splat." Barry added.

"I have to get back to the city." The girl said before jumping up and flying away.

"Ok.." Barry sent a questioning look to his sister, who shrugged.
