Gen's pov

It has now been two weeks since Ray's attack. I still live with Barry - and now we've actually gotten two beds! Finally!

My wounds are still very visible but most of the have turned in to scars. Barry told me everthing about him getting struck by lightning, working at STAR-labs on his free-time and so on.

I sat in the kitchen with Barry as we ate our breakfast in silence.

"Ehm, Barry... Do you think that I could come with you to S.T.A.R-labs today?", I said as I kept fippeling with my food. I felt him look at me - so I looked back up at him.

He smiled at me slightly "Are you sure?", I nodded. " I have to face him some time - why not now?". I smiled at him as he took a hold of my hand and smiled at me "then let's do it".

As I stepped into the familiar building I felt memories fload back to me - memories of little me running around these walls as a child while disturbing everybody.

I then saw that we were getting closer to the main room. I took a deep breath as I heard Barry stop before appearing closer next to me.

"You OK?" I smiled and nodded before I felt his hand take mine in his. "Together", We both smiled before taking the last turn and coming into the big room.

The first man I saw turn around was my best friend - Cisco. He had a lollipop in his mouth but dropped it at once when he saw me standing in the doorway.

"G", I smiled at him as he stood up and I let go of Barry's hand after giving it a soft squeeze. I looked into Barrys eyes and smiled thankfully at him.

I looked back at Cisco before walking up to him. We stood there for at least a minute before he started talking.
"Are you real?", I smiled before hugging him tightly. "of course, it's me, stupid!", I felt him relax as he let out a breath and hugged me back - tightly.

"Oh my God, it's really you!" I giggled as we parted and he looked at me before turning serious before pointing a finger at me, "never do that to me again!". I chuckled," I wouldn't dare to".

"Oh my...", I looked past Cisco to see my dear friend Caitlyn Snow stand behind him. She still looked the same - though she looked sadder.

She walked up to me and Cisco and hugged me like lever before. I flinched a little bit because of the wounds - and unfortunately, she noticed.

As she let go of me she looked at me with concern in her eyes. "What happened to you?".

I smiled at her and practically ignored the question "Nothing that is of importance now, how are you Cait?".

She smiled at me - though I could see in her eyes that she would not let this go. "I'm fine", I smiled at her. "And how's Ron-Bon?" said I in an excited voice.

Ronnie and I were like siblings - we were always there for each other and had always been.

You could practically hear a pin drop. Caitlyn's smile dropped as she looked at me sadly and shook her head. I felt my smile drop as realization hit me.

"When?" ,"The night of the particle accelerator". I nodded sadly as I wrapped my arms around Caitlyn and held her tight. I shut my eyes and we just stood there. "He was a good man Cait" ,I felt her nod into the croak of my neck.

"Indeed he was", it was an all too familiar voice - the voice of Harrison Wells. I let go of Caitlyn as I straightened my back and looked down at the man in the wheel-chair.

"I see that the particle accelerator explosion did some damage to you as well", said I. He just smiled softly at me. "Hello Genevieve, long time no see", "I could say the same". I turned to the others that stood behind me.

"Can we please get a moment?", they nodded as they walked out of the room. I once again turned to Harrison.

"So, are you happy?", I sat down on the desk. "Happy? I do not know if you have noticed but I am bound to a wheelchair", I smiled triumphantly at him.

"No you're not", he looked at me with no signs of emotion. " No? How come?" I straightened my back as I looked at him.

"First of all, you would never plan for yourself to become bound to a wheelchair, no. Because you are the man that created this plan, you would protect yourself above all else - and secondly, you just shifted your leg. Most men that are bound to wheelchairs can not move their legs. And thirdly, your shoe-laces." "My shoe-laces?" "Your shoe-laces! You see, you always tied your shoes in a way that you came up with your self - you tried to teach me but you never succeeded because you are the only one that can tie your shoes like that. Because of your tight belt, it would be hard for you to bend down so that means that you have held up your legs while tying them."

I looked over at Harrison as he clapped his hands together.

"Very good, very good", I watched as he stood up and started walking over to me. I bowed my head in a joking matter.

"Now, why are you here", I jumped off the table and started walking around.

"First of all, I had to meet you at some point - and secondly...", I turned to him. "You messed with my friends, nobody does that, Thawne" he chuckled once again. "How? Wait! Was it my shoe-laces?" I smiled. "No, it was just a wild guess - considering that I found the real Harrisons body in the lake a couple of months ago, just after I left you.", I took a short break. " Your DNA was left in his chest but I couldn't identify it - I could only see that you were related to a man called Eddie Thawne. So how is it Mr.Thawne - what is your real name and who is my real father?!", he started chuckling as his hand started to vibrate.

"Haha, you sure are a clever one. To answer your question - your father was the man you found in the sea and my name is... Eobard Thawne." I looked at him sternly. "You are from the future" ,he nodded and smiled.

"Indeed, but I'm afraid that you won't be in it", I took this as my chance. I took the cold-gun that I always carried and shot his hands and feet before they reached me. I held the gun at his head.

"Get out", said I through gritting teeth. " I will come back, Genevieve Wells, I will come back for you and your little friends - and next time I will end your little boyfriends life.", then he flashed off with a yellow streak following him.

I turned around as I heard footsteps approach. As the team walked in they all looked with confused eyes at the wheelchair. "I guess I have to explain now ,huh?".
