I give all...
**Flashback** I woke up feeling my bones cry and my muscles groan as I slowly rose from my spot underneath layers of dust, dirt and debris, the air was cloudy ,it was dark but the backup lights were on in the distance. I got up from the floor, my muscles and joints screaming in agony. I slowly walked up toward the Cortex to see what happened. I stumbled into the Cortex seeing Cisco, Caitlin and Dr. Wells, I saw Dr. Wells now sitting in a wheelchair. I stood there, confused and discombobulated.
"Addi?" Caitlin called out
Their words felt distant, not next to me.
"You are in a wheelchair? What happened?" I huffed
"What happened? Where were you?" Cisco asked rapidly
"I was recalibrating the sensors and I was-I was on the floor above the accelerator. I ran, there was a blackout and then I woke up. Oh my god, the hospital, I have to go." I said
"Addi." Caitlin said
"I was supposed to be at the hospital, god. What time is it?" I asked
"It's 11 am on Tuesday morning, Adaline." Wells said
I look at him confused.
"Excuse me?" I asked
"Dell." Cisco said
"What do you mean it's Tuesday? " I asked
"You need to see a doctor." Cisco said
"We have the next best thing." I huffed stumbling looking to Caitlin
"Miss. Garcia, did you feel a wave of some sort? That night after the black out?" Dr. Wells asked
"Yeah-yeah I did." I said
"Caitlin, get a blood sample, run some tests. I think Adaline, here, may have been hit by the particle accelerator." Dr. Wells said rolling away
"He still never answers how he got in the wheelchair." I questioned
"Adaline..." Caitlin whispered
I looked at her, seeing tears in her eyes.
"Oh no..what happened?" I asked
"We lost Ronnie." She confirmed
The night came flooding back to me, hearing Caitlin yelling for Ronnie.
She sat me on the medical bed, grabbing things to start running tests.
"Cait." I said grabbing her hand
She pulled me into a tight hug as she cried on my shoulder.
After several hours of testing, we are now just waiting for the results.

I walked into the lab seeing Cisco jamming to Poker Face by Lady Gaga. "What are you doing? And why is Lady Gaga playing at 8 in the morning?" I asked pulling off my sunglasses "Late night at the hospital?" Caitlin questioned "Wasn't supposed to be, I had a date with a tub of ice cream and a lactaid." I mumbled Caitlin and Cisco were in Barry's face seeing if he was going to wake up after all this time. "Anything change while I was gone?" I asked placing my bag and tea down "Nope, Iris isn't with you?" Cisco asked "No, early shift at Jitters." I replied "What are you doing anyway?" Caitlin asked "He likes this song." Cisco said popping a sucker in his mouth "How could you possibly know that?" Cait asked "I checked his Facebook page, he can hear everything right? I'm right, right Dellie?" Cisco asked "He does in fact likes this song, but not enough to wake him up though." I replied The two stared at me. "But to answer your question, yes he can hear you." I said pulling my hair back "Auditory functions are the last sensory to degenerate." Caitlin said Cisco walked away toward the table singing the lyrics loudly as I was walking toward Barry when he shot up sucking in a deep breath. "Holy shit!" I yelled "Oh my god!" Cisco yelled "Where am I?" Barry asked "He's up." Caitlin announced I walked over carrying a tablet listening for Caitlin to say his vitals and seeing if he was responding properly. "Dr. Wells, Get down to the cortex like right now." Cisco said walking towards us Barry was trying to shoot out of the bed. "Hey woah, woah. Relax." Cisco said "Slow down, Allen." I said "Lini?" He asked I rubbed my arms, staring at my feet. "Hi Barty." I replied "Everything is okay. You're at S.T.A.R Labs." Cisco replied "S.T.A.R Labs? Who are you?" He questioned "This is Cisco Ramon and this is Dr. Caitlin Snow." I said "I need you to urinate in this." Caitlin said raising the cup "Not this second." Cisco said taking the cup away "This was not how we planned on talking with him after he woke up." I said
Nobody was listening to me. "Wait? What is happening? What is going on?" Barry asked walking away from us We stared back at him, trying to explain this to him in the simplest way possible. "You were umm-" I began "You were struck by lightning dude." Cisco talked over me Barry looked at us confused, turning to face the screen that displayed his now toned body. "Lightning gave me...abs?" He questioned "Your muscles should be atrophied but instead they are in a chronic and unexplained state of cellular regeneration." Caitlin said while squeezing the muscles Cisco pulled him toward a chair telling him to sit. "You were in a coma." Cisco spit out "Cisco." I snapped "For how long?" He asked The two of them looked at me, I looked at my sneakers exhaling deeply. "Nine months." Dr. Wells said from behind me "Oh thank god." I replied turning to look at him "Welcome back Mr. Allen. We have a lot to discuss." Dr. Wells said "Cisco, please grab Mr. Allen some clothes. Caitlin, go run those tests and Adaline, the hospital is on line 3. They may need your help today." Dr. Wells said wheeling out of the Cortex "Wait! Lini, can we talk later?" Barry asked "I've lived next door to you for years, we could have talked any time." I said walking out of the cortex
