Running home to you

Barry and Cisco

Barry's P.O.V

     I started running towards Arthur but stopped when I saw a vibe come flying by my face. I sprung around ready to fight but saw Cisco. "Dude you don't get to have all of the fun!" He said as he walked over to me. I smiled and then turned to face Arthur. He slowly pushed himself off of the rooftop. When he stood up and cracked his neck then said, "This is going to be lots of fun!" I leaned back a little so I was ready for an attack or for me to run. Cisco raised his hand showing he was ready to vibe. Arthur made a devilish grin and put his hands in the air. Me and Cisco looked at each other with the same confused face and I knew we were thinking the same thing. What is he doing? We slowly turned our heads back to Arthur. Cisco opened his mouth to speak but was stopped by the waves of rocks coming out of his hands. 

     They were small snake like strands of pure rocks coming out of his palms. "Okay so you're a meta-human who can shoot out tiny rocks? Kind of a let down if you ask me." Cisco said with a hint of laughter in his voice. "Oh I'm just getting started!" Arthur reassured Cisco. Then we heard a growling sound. "Cisco get down!" I yelled and flashed to Cisco so I could pull him down to the ground. I did so just in the nick of time too. Arthur had sent flying boulders straight for us. "Okay! Remind me not to underestimate rocks again!" Cisco said, he was still lying on his back. I laughed and pulled Cisco up. "So what's the plan team captain?" Cisco asked with enthusiasm thick in his voice. "I say we flank." I knew that Cisco would know what flanking is, unlike Wally. "Oh right is flanking like that thing in the movies where one of us goes at him head on and the other person attacks at a 90 degree angle so that he will always be vulnerable to one of us? Or are you referring to something else?" Cisco asked. I rolled my eyes a allowed my head to hang back a little. "Oh my goodness, does no one know what flanking is? Yes, I will attack head on and you will attack from a 90 degree angle." Cisco nodded his head. "Alright cool. We got this!" 

     Me and Cisco turned back to face Arthur and saw that he had a whole army of snake like rock arms surrounding him. I looked at Cisco to remind him of the plan and he nodded. I flashed at Arthur and was soon met by two rock arms. I slid down to the pavement and flashed back up when they had passed me. I dodged the rock arms left and right. They came at me from every direction. Cisco this is not flanking! I thought. Then right one cue Cisco spoke up. "Hey Medusa!" Arthur turned to look at Cisco. "Yeah that's right! I'm talking to you!" Cisco continued. I took this opportunity to stand up and get ready for a lightning throw. "What do you say we settle this old school." Cisco lunged back and held one hand over his head and the other right in front of him. "A little hand to hand combat." Arthur was tired of Cisco's chit chat and sent four spears of rocks flying at him. Cisco did and jump spin move (he kind of looked like a ballerina) and then sent a vibe straight at the flying rocks. When the vibe hit the rock spears it shattered them into a thousand pieces. I watched them fall to the ground. "See, hand to hand combat!" Cisco said with a grin. Arthur raised his hands to fire again and that was my que.

     I spun around in a circle, slid my hand down my arm to pick up the lightning, and threw it at Arthur. I saw Cisco slid to avoid the dozens of flying rocks coming towards him as the lightning hit Arthur in the back. He let out a groan and fell to his knees. Cisco sent two vibes at him in the iconic spy position on the ground. They hit Arthur and all of his rocks fell to the ground and shattered. I sped over to him and super speed punched him in the face. He stumbled back and then laid on the ground unconscious. "That was for Iris." I said. Cisco ran over and held his finger to Arthur's neck. "He's alive." Cisco declared. He stood up next to me and we both stared at Arthur for a moment. "I didn't know he was a meta-human." I saw Cisco out of the corner of my eye in agreement. "Yeah me neither. Good thing I always carry these with me!" Cisco pulled out a pair of meta-human cuffs, spun them around on his finger, then blew it out as if he was a cowboy. I chuckled and took the cuffs. "You won't be hurting anyone else with these on." I whispered as I finished putting them on Arthur. 

     "Come on, let's go help the others." I told Cisco. We both turned around and ran to find Oliver and Thea. Brundon had monsters coming out the wazoo. "Cisco go help Oliver and Thea, I'll take care of Brundon." Cisco nodded and was off. I pulled a clip out of my pocket that will stop the weapons from working. I sped over to Brundon and clipped it onto the gun. "You seem a little confused. Here let me clear things up for you." I took the gun and pointed it at him. He held his hands up to his face as to protect him from the blast. I pulled the trigger a few times to show him it wouldn't work. "This don't work no more." I told him and threw the gun to the side. He relaxed and before he knew what had happened he was in cuffs and sitting against the ledge of the Jitters rooftop. "Stay!"I held out my hand and said it as slowly as I could. Then I flashed over to help fight the monsters. Cisco, Oliver, and Thea we all focused on the last monster, he was made of ice. Oliver and Thea were both shooting Arrows at the monster and Cisco was using his vibes to shatter the monsters icicles. I ran around the monster, being careful not to get hit by any arrows, (been there doe that) and threw lightning at the monster. It fell to it's knees and started melting. "Now Cisco vibe!" I yelled. Cisco concentrated on sending the vibe at the monsters chest. Oliver and Thea started shooting arrows rapid fire. The monster let out a loud roar and then the bubbling sound came and it was gone. The only thing left was a puddle filled with arrows. Cisco picked up the monster gun and then I turned around and saw Oliver picking his arrows back up. "What? No reason to let good amo just sit here and go to waist." Oliver said with a shrug. "Yeah but that amo is covered in ice monster blood." Thea commented. "Water Thea. The arrows are covered in water." Oliver said with a small eye roll under the mask.

     "Any way you guys go see if Diggle needs any help and I will check on Iris and Felicity. "All good over here. Caleb had no weapon and he is over there in cuffs next to Brundon." Diggle said from behind me. "Great." Oliver said as he finished picking up his arrows. "K, I'll go find Iris and Feli-" Then I was interrupted. "Right here babe." Iris said as she and Felicity came running over to us. I flashed over to Iris and wrapped her in my arms. "I'm glad you're safe." I whispered just quiet enough so only Iris heard what I said. I felt her smile against my shoulder. "Well I did make you a promise." She said. I pulled my head back but kept her in my arms then I placed a small kiss on her lips. She smiled and then I saw the cut that ran down her cheek. "What happened? Are you okay?" I asked, my voice full of concern. I put my hand up to her cheek and massaged the cut with my thumb. "Oh it's fine, it's just a scratch." She reassured me. "Uh guys!" Cisco said. We all turned to look at what he was pointing at. "I told you I was just warming up!" Arthur said. His voice echoed and he was up in the air surrounded by millions of rock tentacles.

HEYO! So I have no excuse, I know you don't want to hear it. I was gone for two days, O apologize. Can't promise it would happen again but ya know. Also when I was writing this I may have accidentally made up a knew character named Oilver. (Look at the spelling) For those of you like me, what I mean is I kept misspelling Oliver.
