Through that accident, Stephanie Wyndham's mutant abilities had awoken; and she'd taken the identity of Cyanide to avenge her sister's death.
Steph knelt down by her father's corpse, crying softly over her own decision. A hollow victory. The last member of her birth family was dead.
Her train of thought was instantly interrupted by the presence of Cisco Ramon behind her.
'We need to go. Get the hell out of here.' He said frantically - trying to disturb Cyanide's mourning. This only lead to Cyanide's vengeful rage hitting Cisco. Stephanie turned around and threw the innocent boy against a wall with purple energy. His spine shattered as he was contorted against the concrete.
By the time that Ramon had healed, Cyanide had vanished into bitter nothingness. He dragged his aching body back to the waiting team, and notified them that Cyanide had killed the Professor and vanished.
'Did you find the way out of here?' Inquired Maddy.
'Errm... I kinda just got my ass handed to me by that psycho.' Moaned Cisco, scratching his head.
'There's a perfectly good window just there.' Goaded Clarke; gesturing at the top floor window that they were standing in-front of.
'No way in fu-'
Clarke grabbed the shoulders of the runaways, and catapulted herself through the window.
