I woke up the next day in my bed in Joe's house. I got out of bed and walked over to the bathroom, I looked in the mirror and my eyes were blue. "What the heck? I'm not even mad." I ran over to the other room where Magi was sleeping and opened the door. She was facing the other way of the bed and she was almost about to fall off of it. I went over and shook her really hard. "Magi, wake up." "Whoa, what is going on?" I grabbed her face by her chin so her face was squished and she looked like a fish. "What are you doing?" she asked or at least tried to since I was squeezing her face. I used my other hand and opened her eyelid so I could see her eye better. I looked into it and it looked like a deep redwood, almost like fire. I let go of her face and stepped back a bit with my head down and my hands on my hips. "What was that about?" I lifted my head, but kept my eyes close, I opened them and Magi had a face of shock.

"Are you mad?" "No, I woke up, went to the bathroom and thats how they were." "What about Barry?" I shot my head up and grabbed Magi by the arm and dragged her out the room. I ran into Barry's room to find him still sleeping, I ran over and shook him, but he wouldn't wake up so I pushed him off the bed. I waited a couple seconds before I heard a groan and I saw his head pop out of the side of the bed. "Liz?! What was that for?" I jumped over the bed and grabbed his face the same way I did with Magi and opened him eye. His eyes were normal, I sat back on my heels. "Ok, what is going on?" "Magi come here." I showed Barry Magi's eyes then I showed him mine. "Thats cool and strange at the same time." "Do you think something is wrong?!" I asked getting worried because this is not normal, even for a meta-human, well only when you're mad, but any other time is not normal!

"Whoa, whoa, Liz. Calm down, I you'll be fine, besides you look cool that way." Barry said coming up behind me and wrapping his arms around me and putting his chin on my head. "Well I think its awesome!" Magi said looking at her eyes in the mirror. I walked over to the mirror and looked at my eyes. "I look like Fish Mooney after she scooped out her eye." "You do not." said Magi looking at my eyes. "Uh, who is Fish Mooney?" asked Barry changing into some sweats. "Fish Mooney is someone who works for Don Falcone, she's also from Gotham." "Let me guess, another tv show. Wait isn't Gotham where we went yesturday?" "Yup." I said popping the "p" I turned around and kept looking in the mirror. "I kind of like this." putting my hands on my hips. "Now you change and you change, I'm making breakfast." I said pointing to Magi and Barry.

After breakfast we all walked to the precinct, when we walked in we pasted Eddie on the way out, but he looked mad, like really mad. We walked towards Joe who was running toward us with a worried look on his face. "Joe, whats going on?" I asked cautiously. "Eddie, he's mad." "Ya, I think we got that part, but why?" "I don't know, we were just talking and I mentioned something about The Flash and he got mad, but before he went berserk his eyes, they turned-" "Red?! Tell me they did not turn red!" "No, no, they didn't turn red, they turned black, like completely black." "Oh god." "What does it mean?" "It can mean two things, one his eyes turned a different because he's a meta-human or he's a demon." "A demon?! You're joking, right?" "Joking?! I am not joking, if he is a demon we are so much trouble." "Okay, Liz calm down." Magi said walking up behind me. "Alright then, lets hope he's not a demon." Joe said backing up before I went on a rampage.

We walked up to Barry's lab and I sat down in his wheely chair and started spinning around until I got dizzy. "So how are we supposed to find him?" Magi asked trying to get me off the chair so she could sit down. "Well we could track his phone." I walked over to the computer and I turned to look at everyone, everyone had a face of shock, besides Magi. "What, I told you I majored in computer sciences in cyber security." "I thought you just said that to Iris because you had to come up with something quick." Barry asked completely shocked. "She did major in cyber security, I should know. She hacked into my phone like 5 times." Magi said walking over to us leaning on me. "So you can do what Felicity can?" "Whoa, Barry I'm not that good, but I can still hack into things within minutes."

I turned around and sat down and opened the CCPD database and search Eddie Thawne. When I found him I looked up the number to his phone, but the number was block so I had to get to the real work. I sat up straight, cracked my knuckles and my neck and started typing really fast. After like a minute I got it. "Got it, he's on the corner of South and Park." "Can you pull him up on security cameras?" Barry asked walking up behind me and putting his hand on the chair. "Yes I can, just give me a second." In seconds I had Eddie on the security cameras and we could see him jogging up to two cops with a gun in his hand, he stopped stuck his hand out and shot the two cops. "Shitaki mushrooms!" I got up ran over to my backpack and pulled out my iPad. I opened The CW app and went to The Flash section and loaded the trailer where Eddie shoots the two cops. Everyone moved away from the computer, Joe was about to dispatch a team out there before I stopped him. "Get me a team at-" "Joe, no!" "Liz?! He just shot two cops and you don't want me to call a team out there?!" "Yes." I said with such calmness that I made Joe stand up straight. "Okay, but why?" "Because of this."

I walked over to them with my iPad and showed them the WonderCon preview trailer. When it was over they all stood back in shock, even Magi was in shock because she hadn't seen the trailer yet. There was a eery silence for like 2 minutes. "Is this why you didn't want to tell me these kinds of things?" asked Barry moving his hands through his hair. "Yes."

"Great so what are we going to do know?" "Hold on, I'ma check something real quick." I opened my iPad to the TV Guild Magazine app and read the summery for episode 19. I had a look of shock, then I realized something. That Eddie wasn't Eddie, it was a shapeshifter! "HOLY MOTHER OF SAM WINCHESTER!!!!" Everyone looked at me like I was the strangest person in the universe, except for Magi who was giggling since I had said Sam Winchester. "Whoa, what is it?" Barry asked still a little stunded at my outburst. "Its not Eddie!" I said with the biggest smile on my face. "What are you talking about, we just saw Eddie shoot two cops." "Barry!! Listen to me." I said getting frustrated because he still thought that was Eddie and wouldn't let me explain. "Fine, go ahead. Just try not to get carried away." 'Fine, whatever, but anyways thats not Eddie. Its a shapeshifter." "Whoa, whoa, whoa, dude this is not Supernatural with a fricken leviathan." said Magi choking on water when I said shapeshifter. "No, it totally makes sense now, how Barry was fighting himself and also fighting Eddie. Its a shapeshifter, don't believe me, then you got any better ideas." I said sticking my tongue out at Magi.

"Fine then how do we stop him?" "We could get an inhibitor collar from Belle Reve." "You do know if we go there we might not come out, right." "Magi, we know Oliver, Diggle, Lyla and they all know Waller." "But Waller's not the sharing type." "Ok, what are you guys talking about?" asked Barry. "Right, I told you about Amanda Waller, she owns a prison for super-evil people and the people who have powers have inhibitor collars that suppress their super powers." "So lets go to Belle Reve." "Alright then, Joe, I need someone here just in case either of our Eddies come back." "Alright." We walked out the door heading to the "pit of hell" where few people come out.
