[BACKSTABBER- KESHA]

"The famous metahuman Killer Frost will be sentenced today." The news reporter said, showing a picture of her on the television screen. The team gathered in the Lounge of Star Labs to discuss the plan.

"So much for rebranding." Frost comments, staring into space.

"Cecile, how bad is this?" Ethan asks, leaning against the island, and crossing his arms.

"Uh, typically? Frost's charges carry a sentence of 10-20 years." Cecile reveals and the team sighs deeply, "Buttoday Judge Tanaka is gonna weigh that against all the good that she's done as a hero, and given that Frost hasn't committed a crime in four years I could make a case for a lighter sentence. 18 months, maybe less with parole?"

"I mean she already pleaded guilty and skipped her trial." Caitlin points out, "What more does the court want?"

"They want to know whether or not you are responsible for your crimes." Cecile turns to Frost.

"Oh come on, so she was a rogue once." Jason shrugs, sitting on the island, "Some of us here had those moments, and she is one of them that made up for it. They don't name drinks after anyone who doesn't deserve it."

"Exactly." Cisco nods, "You know, I say we just make like 'A Few Good Men' and shove the truth down the city's throat."

"Amen." Jason hums in response.

"Guys, we're not looking for a loophole. I did these crimes." Frost looks between the two.

"And I took down several gangs at Gotham, plus beating up a few people and breaking some of their fingers, yet I made up for all of those." Jason scoffs softly and everyone else quickly turns to Ethan, who only waves it off with a shake of his head, "Why can't we do the same for you?"

"I appreciate the thought, but we should just let all of this play out on its own, Jace." Frost tells him and he looks away from her. She then turns to Caitlin, "And Caity, I know you want to help, but ever since becoming my own person, I've realized that if I don't own up to my choices, I'll never be able to move on."

"What about all the good things you've done?" Caitlin questions, "Like the life we're building together?"

"I'll miss you, too." Frost said softly, winking in her direction, "But until I pay for what I did, the rest of the city won't look at me the way you all do."

"Well, we'll be here for you whatever happens." Y/N tells her, smiling softly.

Frost smiles back, just as the alarms begin to blare and everyone looks at the screen to see a location appear in the city. Cisco quickly rushes over, "Isotopic signature detected."

At that moment, color lightning appears and thunder is heard as everyone looks over to see the Speed Force appear. Melissa looks at the speedsters, "The Forces. One of them is close."

"It's coming from Keystone." Cisco informs the heroes, "Seismic isotopes."

"It's the Strength Force." Y/N says, sharing a look with Ethan.

"Guys, you two have to go." Alice tells them, "This is the chance we've been waiting for."

The speedsters seemed hesitant for a moment, not wanting to leave Frost during this moment. They glanced at her but she only waved them off, "Listen to the cosmic ladies Go."

"She's right." Cecile looks at the two, "If Fuerza is back, people need the Electric Flash and Lightning Storm. We've got Frost's back."

"We promise to tell you everything that happens." Jason lightly punches Ethan's shoulder with a small smile.
