         The next day I walked into Jitters seeing Ray, Felicity and Barry talking in the opposite corner of the building.

"Hey." I said standing beside Barry.

"Hey." Felicity and Ray chimed.

"Ray, thank you for all your help." Barry said.

"Oh." Ray smiled.

"And I hope you figure out the problem with your suit." Barry said.

"I already have actually." Ray said smiling.

I smiled.

"Oh." Barry said surprised.

"All this time, I've been looking at the power source the wrong way. I kept thinking we needed to go bigger, but the solution, as always, is simply to go smaller." Ray smiled.

"Oh, great." Barry said, placing his arm around me, bring me into his side.

"You, okay?" Felicity asked.

He looks down at me, smiling looking at Felicity.

"Mm-hmm. I'm gonna be. Thank you for your advice." Barry smiled.

"I won't even charge you the five cents." Felicity said.

"Bye, Felicity." Barry sighed.

"Bye, Barry." She smiled.

"Bye, Ray." I spoke.

"Bye, Addie." He smiled.

The two walked toward the exit of Jitters, not looking back as Barry and I walked out the opposite end. We arrived at his lab sitting, basking in the silence.

"You were right." He whispered.

"Oh, music to my ears." I chuckled.

"What was I right about?" I asked, confused.

"I'm gonna be telling Cisco and Caitlin." He spoke.

I smiled before pulling him in for a kiss.

"After Cisco risked his life for Ray's, I knew they couldn't be helping him." Barry said.

"Cisco." I called out.

looked up to see Cisco's body on the floor in front of the containment system. He was unmoving and just slumped.

"Cisco." I whispered.

I took off running, sliding on my knees getting to him. I pulled his lifeless body onto my lap seeing his face already losing color.

"Cisco, no, no. Please." She cried.

I felt the room grow darker; my body began to shake as I released a blood curdling scream.

"Adaline." Barry called out.

I blinked a few times feeling tears now in my eyes. I shook my head looking around, before looking at a very confused Barry.

"Sorry, I was just thinking that night when Cisco almost died. It triggered something in my brain, I guess." I replied.

"Are you sure?" he asked.

"Yeah, what were you saying?" I changed the subject.

"Oh, that I texted them to meet us here because we were going to Karaoke." Barry said.

"And they believed you?" I questioned.

He nodded; I nodded back with an impressed look.

"I need to get a couple things done before they get here, stay with me?" He asked.

"Any day, plus I can work on a few emails here." I smiled.

He squeezed my hand before he went to his computer as I took a seat on the desk up against the windows. I leaned on the wall, pulling my laptop open starting on the emails. 


         A couple hours later, Joe arrived, causing me to close the laptop and take the to-go cup from his hands. Several minutes after Joe arrived, Cisco and Caitlin appeared through the doorway.

"All right, all right, who's ready for some...Karaoke." Cisco sang.

I stayed seated on the desk looking at them, disappointed.

"We are not going to Karaoke, are we?" Caitlin asked.

I shook my head.

"No. This is everything we know about my mother's murder, Adaline's parent's accident and the Reverse-Flash. I've been gathering information on him for a long time, and this is everything we know about Dr. Wells." Barry said, pulling the second roll down.

"I don't understand. What does Dr. Wells and Reverse-Flash have to do with each other?" Caitlin asked.

"Umm." Barry said.

"They are the same person." I said blankly.

"That's impossible." Caitlin said confidently.

"Look Caitlin, it took me a long time to believe it too, but it's him." Barry said.

"Dr. Wells is a speedster? He's paralyzed." Caitlin said.

"Is he, though?" Joe asked.

"And why would he kill Barry's mother?" Caitlin asked.

"Don't forget he killed both Adaline's parents." Joe added.

I flinched, thinking about it.

"Why would he kill them? It doesn't make any sense." Caitlin questioned.

The room was quiet.

"Cisco, say something." Caitlin asked.

"I've been having these dreams. Mostly at night, but sometimes during the day." Cisco said.

Barry looked at me.

"But they don't really feel like dreams, do they?" I asked with tears in my eyes.

"They...they feel real." Cisco said.

"What happens in the dream?" Barry asked.

I got up walking closer to Cisco and Caitlin, now concerned about what he was going to say.

"Dr. Wells is the Reverse-Flash...and...he kills me." Cisco explained.

My heart stopped hearing the words leave his mouth. My fists clenched and my knees almost buckled. Barry looks at me, eyes now wide before turning to Cisco.

"What?" Cisco asked, concerned.

"I've been having nightmares for the past couple weeks and it's the same dream. It just recently started happening during the day. It comes in like a flashback or Déjà vu." I said.
