I got to the house and Barry was on the couch he looked confused. Joe on the other hand looks upset and terrified. I sat next to Barry. Joe took a deep breath and explained that Iris's mother was actually alive ant that the reason he didn't tell Iris was because she had a drug addiction.

"Iris' mom is alive." I breathed out in disbelief. "I lied to Iris, you two, everybody." Joe said almost crying. "Why?" Barry asked. "I felt like I didn't have a choice. Francine did so many things wrong. Just about everything. I don't know. Now I feel like my one wrong might be worse." Joe explained in tears. "Look, Joe. I've known you for, you know, most of my life, and I know that you always have a good reason for the decisions you make. And obviously, you were worried that Iris would go down the wrong path if Francine raised her. Look at Snart. He's a criminal because he had Lewis for a father. That could have been me." Barry told him understanding why he did what he did.
"Oh, come on. Never." Joe said denying Barry's point. "Yeah, because I had you. And so did Iris and Beth, You just gotta trust in that and tell her the truth." Barry told him. "Yeah, how do I do that without hurting her?" He asked worried about her reaction. "She's not a little girl anymore. You should have seen her in action the other day, putting her neck on the line for a story. She can handle anything that comes her way." Barry told him. It's true Iris is one of the most strongest people I know it's why I told her I was the Streak. "I just lied to her for so long, I'm scared she's not gonna understand or forgive me. I could lose her." He said crying. He won't lose Iris not ever. "No, she's gonna forgive you. You just gotta give her a chance." I told Joe hugging him. He hugged back. Barry was about to join the hug when I pulled back. Barry looked at me hurt and confused about what he has done to make me not want to touch him. Maybe I should let this little grudge about Jay go and let Barry off the hook I'll think about it.... done nope still mad at them.

We arrived at a crime scene which Jo and the captain David wanted me on. "Don't worry, sir. I waited for you this time. Okay, I may have done a quick preliminary assessment of my own. Something is definitely weird." Patty the new member of Joe's meta human task force. "Oh. Decapitation." Barry winced at the sight so did I that's just wrong it's also discussing. "Yeah." She said "Yikes." I said sorry for the person who is missing there head. "We're still recovering parts of the head, so the ID is taking a little longer than normal. Aah! Ugh. Sorry, I thought I stepped on an ear. I didn't. If I did, I'd be hearing things." She said making a bad pun like Barry would. "Oh, hell no." Joe said turning away with me as we went to get a file on this case. "Dad there's two of them I don't know if I can handle two Barry's." I said making Joe laugh. Joe got a text from Cisco. "Beth Cisco needs your help with Lisa at the lab." Joe told me. "Okay I'll see you later." I said hugging him. I then made my way to S.T.A.R Labs.

I started scanning Lisa to see what exactly her dad did to her to make Snart help him. I found something scary in her neck. "Oh god Cisco!" "Whoa what is it?" He asked walking over to me. "There are traces of thermite in her skin mainly in the neck area." I told him away from Lisa so she couldn't hear up. "I'll get Caitlin up here." He told me. "Hey, Caitlin? We need you up here, like, right now." Cisco said threw the com.

"Oh, boy." Caitlin said seeing what we were talking about. "What is it?" Lisa asked with a little fear in her voice. "Lisa, there are traces of thermite on your skin." Cisco broke to her. "Thermite? Like an explosive?" She questioned. "Not like an explosive. It's a bomb. When you were knocked out, your dad must have injected you with it." I told her.

For some odd reason that boy from earlier keeps coming into my mind he looks oddly familiar kind of like Chase but Chase doesn't have any siblings he told me he didn't, it must be a coincidence I mean there's someone out there whose going to look kinda like me.
