*Third Person's POV*

"Cisco a little help, please?!" Caitlin glared at her long time friend who was entertaining himself with Dawn's puppy which Caitlin was forced to brung at S.T.A.R. labs. She told him everything that happened last night and now it was Cisco's turn to talk.

"I don't know, Caitlin. This is quite a lot and I'm wondering how your heads not spinning!" He voiced while putting the puppy down. "One thing's for sure, you can't keep your act going for too long."

Caitlin scoffed. "Oh, really?"

Her friend frowned. "You know I don't mean it that way. I'm here to help you even if you seem to be angry to the world."

"'cause I am! And I don't even know why! I haven't felt this much anger after Killer Frost controled me and I tried to kill Barry!" She shouted in frustration.

"Woah! You don't plan to do that now, do you?" Smirk appeared on his face.

"Of course not!" Caitlin rolled her eyes. "I'm just frustrated out of nowhere and I need to keep my cover for as long as possible."

"Is there any other possible way to solve this problem?" He asked her carefully. Caitlin rolled her eyes again, which seemed like a thing she did lately.

"I can't just tell say that Barry is Dawn's father!" She glared hard.

A loud gasp was heard behind them and Caitlin felt her whole world crumble in a second. Cisco next to her whitened and slowly with her, turned back.

Ralph Dibny was standing behind them, his hands covering his face to muffle his gasps. He took in Caitlin's and Cisco's widened eyes and let out another gasp.

"D-Dawn's B-Barry's daughter!" He exclaimed in a shaky voice. "Y-you and B-Barry... Have a daughter! You were pregnant when you left!"

"N-no, actually, that's not what she meant-Oh who am I kidding! Good job, Ralph! You put two and two together." Cisco gave him a tight smile.

Caitlin nearly fainted. Frost took this moment and came out. Ice dagger appeared in her hand and she pointed it to Ralph. "You are not supposed to tell this to anyone! You got it?" She glared. "Or I swear. I'll hunt you down and turn you into an ice statue! Cisco can put you in his workshop as a decoration. Got it?"

"Y-yes, maam!" Ralph gulped.

"Good." Frost nodded with a smirk.

"Caity, I'll take care of the things for a while. You rest, all right?" Caitlin thanked her and drifted in a deep slumber.

Two girls came in the room, holding hands and giggling. They greeted older people and walked towards Cisco who was playing with the puppy again.

"Frost, can Dawn play with me after her online lessons end?" Nora approached her while Dawn tended the dog.

"Of course, play with Dawn who's like your sister, hehe!" Ralph blabbered. Frost and Cisco glared at him and almost choked him.

Nora gave him an odd look and then shrugged it off, already used to his stupidness. Frost gave them permission and two girls ran back in their play room with the puppy.

"We're doomed." Cisco whispered to Frost who nodded, watching Ralph give them assuring smiles that he could handle it.

Later that day, Frost actually had to freeze half of his hand to shut him up.

Whole day Barry hawsn't said a word to Caitlin. It could be explained by the fact that Frost has taken over her body and she has been guarding Dawn from him whole day.

He came to conclusion that he needed proof that their plan to stop Speed Freak would work, so he time travelled in the future.

That's where he is at the moment, staring at the building of the future S.T.A.R. labs.

He sped off inside and took a moment to savour all the changes in the building. Somehow it seemed bigger than the one he was used to. He saw two pictures in the frame. One was an old team Flash picture and second was probably a new one. Barry, Cisco, Caitlin, Ralph, Frost, Iris, Joe, Cecile, Jenna, Nora and a light brown haired girl hodling a dog was in the photo. Dawn. She looked a lot like someone he knew and lost, his mother. She was smiling brightly which resemblad her mother's smile a lot.

Caitlin, Dawn and Frost were in the picture. Which meant two of them stayed in the city and somehow Caitlin and Frost divided.

"Da-Flash!" Someone gasped behind him. The picture almost slipped from Barry's hands. He quickly placed it on the table and turned back to face older Dawn.

"Dawn!" Barry said both in shock and delight. She looked exactly in the picture, well maybe a little older, but she couldn't be older then twenty.

"Wh-what are you doing here? Aren't you supposed to be on vacation with mo-I mean, which timeline are you from? That's not da-Ugh, Flash's current suit." She breathed out.

She talked so fast that Barry couldn't get anything out of her stuttering. He ignored that and answered her question. "We haven't defeated Speed Freak, yet. That's actually why I'm here. I wanted to know if our plan worked."

"Barry, you know time travels not for that, right? You shouldn't know events that haven't taken place, yet! Can you tell me exactly when are you from?"

"You and I just started watching 'Once Upon A Time.'" He replied.

"Oh!" Dawn exclaimed. "Okay, hold on, I'll call Nora." She said and left the cortex.

Minutes later Nora arrived in the room. Barry stared at his future daughter lovingly. She resembled Iris a lot. She grinned when she saw Barry and hugged him.

"Hi, young dad!" She said. "You know, from all the lessons you taught me and Da-I mean me, you seem to use time travel a lot. And here I'm not allowed to intervene in past and future timelines."

Barry ignored her stuttering mistake too and asked her. "I know me being here is wrong but can you tell me if our plan works? Because if it doesn't, we need to make a new one."

"We can't tell you that, Barry. Because this plan is important both ways, if it fails or if it doesn't. Truthfully, Nora and I don't remember much of it because we were quite small back than. And even if we remembered we still wouldn't tell you because we're told not to interfere in the past and future." Dawn deadpanned.

Barry frowned. "You're right. I shouldn't have come here." He smiled then. "I'm glad you guys are not repeating my mistakes."

Nora and Dawn smiled at him. Barry almost thought how to resembled each other in the moment. Like two halves. Their grins almost identical. The warm look they head in their eyes.

"I'll go back now, it was good to see you girls here." He smiled and embraced the smiling girls.

"It was good to see you too dad/Barry." They said. They waved their hands while Barry gave them smile and sped off back in his timeline.

At least their current plan had a purpose.
