Barry and Adaline stood in the room, guilt in his eyes as hers held defeat.

"Barry, don't blame yourself. You wanted to tell her, we didn't. That is our burden to bear." Adaline said
"It was my secret I should have told her." Barry said
Adaline squatted down in front of Barry, her hands now grabbing his face.

"Barry, you were listening to Joe. That man is a father figure to us, we couldn't go against him. We will figure this out Barry, it's going to be okay." Adaline said

"How do you know?" Barry asked
"To be honest, I don't but I'm hoping so." Adaline replied
The two smiled as they stood up walking out of the training room into the Cortex, hand-in-hand. Adaline's eyes met with her brother's, his face hardened. His eyebrow rose, silently asking if everything was good. Adaline gave a small nod as he returned it, turning back to the file in his hand.

"Are you supposed to be reading that?" Adaline asked
"Technically no, but to be completely honest, I only know like ten words on the eight pages I've read." Mateo said
"Wow, ten more than I thought." Adaline joked

Barry's phone rang as Adaline took the file from Mateo's hands.
"Really? Okay, I'll be right there." Barry said

Caitlin and Cisco walk into the Cortex as Barry hangs up the phone.
"What is it?" Adaline asked
"I just got a call from Joe. The Central City Gold Reserve is about to transport three hundred million in gold bars to their Coast City vault. Singh told Joe, they think the Man in the Mask is gonna make a play for it." Barry explained

"Okay, but we still don't know if he's responsible for those weird images you saw." Catlin said
"How are they transporting the gold?" Cisco asked

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you." Barry said

"Try us?" Mateo said

The four of them were sitting in the Cortex, watching over the Ice cream truck transporting the golden bars.

"Whoa, the truck was just hit by a landmine." Cisco said
"Is Joe okay?" Barry asked in a panic

"We don't know yet." Caitlin said
Adaline looked to Cisco.

"He's got it. Joe will be fine." Cisco said
Adaline nodded before typing into the computer

"Barry? Is Joe okay? Are they all okay?" Adaline asked
Nothing but silence.
"Barry?" She asked again

"I'm okay, Joe's okay. One down, help is on the way, but um.. Clear a cell. I'm bringing someone in." Barry said

"Okay..." Adaline said
She looked around, everyone giving a confused look. Cisco and Adaline pulled a cell up to the door, making sure everything was in order before Barry arrived.

"Um guys, can you come up here?" Caitlin called out over the PA

"Who is this mystery person?" Cisco asked
"I don't know but I have a feeling I'm not going to like who it is." Adaline said
"Probably." Cisco
