Central City

S.T.A.R. Labs.

Henry Allen was feeling restless. Team Flash was back in S.T.A.R. Labs, Harry and Jesse were both recovering from the pulse disturbance on their nervous systems, and all the rogues from Earth Two were detained while Zoom ran back to Earth Two making it a little safer for the time being. But his mind was not on any of them. Instead it was on the cell in the pipeline.

After taking a deep breath, Henry put his hand on the screen to open the pipeline door. He looked at the person sitting on the corner of the cell.

Silver raised his head and made a cynical smile. He stood right in front of the door. His green eyes hard with distain.

"Well, hello father."

Henry gasped. "Sebastian."

"What? Why couldn't I be Barry? Lil Seb such a disappointment?" Silver demanded. "Of course! In this Universe, Barry is the Flash! Perfect Bartholomew Henry Allen. Who cares about little Bas Allen right?"

"I love both my boys equally." Henry insisted, causing Silver to scoff. "I don't know what happened with you and your parents. But I'm sure they love you very much."

Henry jumped when Silver slammed his hands on the glass doors of his cell. "You abandoned me! Disowned me! Left me to rot. You always thought the worse of me. You didn't love me. You were relieved to get rid of your greatest failure."

"But helping Zoom?" Henry exclaimed. "I know Sebastian. He can be spiteful, he can be harsh. But he would never join a madman."

"Here's the thing Daddy dearest. I am not your Sebastian." Silver snarled then let out a snort. "But I hear that poor little Seb isn't doing so well now is he? Getting fired from one of the best Law Firms in Central City. Devastating."

"You could've changed your life. Even without your parents. I wasn't there for my sons. I couldn't. But they moved on. They lived their life even when I was in prison. You could have done the same. You chose to stick in the past."

"Here's the thing," Silver said. "This doesn't look like Iron Heights. This seems to me like some make shift prison cell. So, I'm assuming you're not a prisoner right now aren't you. I've looked into the life of your precious sons. A Forensic Scientist for the CCPD and a lawyer in some big ass firm in Central City. Diplomas in from New York City, but coming back to Central City?"

This made Henry pause which brought a smirk on Silver's face. "Why would little Barry and Bas come back to Central City? Unless, they spent the past few years fixing your mistake. Trying to prove their innocent father's case. That doesn't look like moving on to me."

"I told them to live their lives. And they did."

"Barry might have always wanted to be a Scientist, his little nerd heart would break if he didn't pursue his little geeky dreams, but what about Sebastian?" Silver had one hand on the side of the door while the other was perched on his hip. "Sebastian was always the performer wasn't he. He grew up talking about Broadway watching all those musicals with mom. Sebastian would play on the piano on the living room while Barry would sing his little heart out on the weekends. A lawyer? Spending years reading burning eyebrows and late nights over mounts of paperwork. Climbing up the ladder to become a prosecutor?"

"My sons lived their lives on their own terms." Henry said. "Sebastian may not always have wanted to become a prosecutor. But he is his own man. And I couldn't be prouder."

"But is that really, moving on?" Silver asked. "a prosecutor who defends 'innocent men' who were arrested for the murder of their family members?"

"One thing I know of Sebastian, he has a strong sense of Justice." Henry said noticing a small quiver or a twitch from Silver. "Which I'm sure is the same for you."
