Saving Her

T H I R T Y - E I G H T

Beth opened her eyes her vision fuzzy and blurry. Blinking she came to remember what had happened. Attempting to move she couldn't. The restraints holding her in place.

Her heart rate skyrocketed while her breathing becoming erratic as she struggled hard against her bonds.

"No." She breathed. Reaching with her mind she couldn't find Max, Tina, or her team.

"Bethany?" A familiar voice called out.

She turned her head to see Barry in a glass cage. Now out of his own restraints.

"Barry, I'm sorry. I couldn't-"

"No I shouldn't have come here. I should have trusted in your own ability. Please don't put the blame on yourself. I just...I didn't want to lose you." His voice was so sincere and apologetic Beth's heart just melted.

"You won't lose me, and I will get us out of here."

"And how do you plan to do that."

"Let me think. Give me a minute or two."

Rolling his eyes Barry rested his head back against the glass with a smile on his face.

Bethany looked at her restraints thinking maybe she could use her telekinesis. That's something the doctor had no knowledge about. He didn't really know too much about her abilities since she had escaped before he could learn too much.

Concentrating hard slowly she loosened the straps on her left wrist.

"I see you're awake."

Bethany tensed at the voice. Knowing too well who it was coming from.

"It seems I am."

Bethany looked away from the bonds holding her glance at Barry who was glaring hard at Doctor Siward.

Looking away from Barry she stared at Siward. Using her mind she reached out to him. Hitting him hard, but something blocked her.

Siward smirked. "That won't work on me Bethany."

A small smirk planted itself on Bethany's face when she used her telekinesis to lift an object off the far counter and hit Doctor Siward in the back of his head causing him to hit the floor with a groan.

A small laugh escaped Bethany's lips, but was replaced by a scream at an intense pain in her head. Shaking her body wildly Barry watched angrily through his glass box. Yelling at the doctor to stop.

"Enough." The doctor said standing up, and straightening his lab coat. "Looks like Bethany has some tricks up her sleeve."

Completely unaware of what was happening Bethany rested on the table glad to have the pain in her head gone. Breathing heavily she closed her eyes.

"What did you do to her!?" Barry yelled banging on the glass.

"Me? Oh I did nothing. Ms. Lorenz on the other hand." The doctor said motioning to one of his assistants. "Sent a pulse to teach Bethany a lesson. She's like her you know." The Doctor smiled obviously proud of his accomplishment.

"Now Bethany." Doctor Siward said walking towards her. "Be a good girl, and listen to what I have to say."

She didn't respond which Siward took as compliance. "We have an upcoming procedure for you. Just as Lorenz and the rest of my...experiments have. One that will ensure that you will no longer be a threat to my organization."

"What happened to them?" Bethany asked ignoring what he had said.

"Who? Your friends?" Siward said scuffing. "They are in the same place as you Bethany. You lost. All of you. You can't stop me, and you will comply."
