Their Future: A Mick and Lisa Fanfic

Star Labs

"Are you getting any signals or vibes of any kind, Cisco?" Barry asked. "I mean, he is your brother."

"I know, but for some reason, it's really hard to track him down right now." Cisco replied, rubbing his forehead. "Okay, let me try again. Dante can't be that hard to find."

"You've already tried twice," Caitlin said from the corner of the room.

"Well, maybe the third time will be the charm," Cisco snapped, and then took a deep breath. "I'm sorry, Caitlin. I didn't mean to do that. I'm just really worried about him."

Mick made his way through the hall, with Lisa cradled in his arms, toward the main lab where he knew that the whole Flash team would be. "I'm just really worried about him." He could hear Cisco say. "Well, I hate to be the bearer of more bad news, but I need your help," Mick said as he rounded the corner to enter the lab.

"Mick, what the hell?" Barry remarked.

"We were having a drink at our hideout, and she collapsed. I gave her something to treat the seizure that she was having shortly after, and she went still." He looked at Caitlin directly. "She's breathing, but I need you to take a look at her and make sure that there is no permanent damage."

"Do you have any idea what she was poisoned with?" Caitlin asked as she helped Mick get Lisa to the medical bed.

"No, but I did bring the bottle with me."

"Good. Let's get her up here...there we go," Caitlin said as they got Lisa situated on the bed. She then went to work hooking her up with an IV and connecting her major parts to display on the monitor. Once that was done, she put on a pair of latex gloves and took the bottle of bourbon from Mick. She carefully poured the poisoned bourbon into a small cup as a sample to have it analyzed. She checked on Lisa and made sure that her vitals were stable, which they were, but she was suffering from lack of fluids in her system. She'd have to run further tests to see what other problems she had. She turned toward Mick who couldn't take his eyes off Lisa. "You did the right thing in bringing her here."

"Did I? I was afraid that it would have been too long for her to go without treatment. I was afraid that I was going to lose her. Can you help her?"

"Yes, you did. From first glances, you got her here just in time, and as for me helping her? I am still not sure at this moment, but I will do everything I can to do just that. I still need to run some tests, and figure out what she was poisoned with. Once I figure that out, then I'll know what to do."

"Thank you, Caitlin. You'll let me know as soon as you know anything?" Mick asked.

"Of course."

"She'll be fine, Mick." Cisco said behind him. "Lisa's strong. She'll make it through this."

"I wish I had your confidence," Mick said. "She's been my partner for the last six months. I don't want to stop now, not when we've come this far."

"Then don't," Barry said. "Go out and do your thing. We'll watch Lisa, and we'll text you if anything changes."

"No, I'm not leaving her."

"Mick, she'd want you to go out and do the job. Plus we know how hard you've worked for this. Don't let her down now." Barry waited for a few moments and sighed. "Come on. It would beat waiting for anything to happen in this place."

"Okay, I'll go. As soon as anything changes, you hear me?" Mick said, pointing his finger at Caitlin.

"I hear you. I promise I'll contact you. Go on, get outta here."
