Ok, so thanks to some awesome readers I was made aware that I made the mistake of saying that Tracy Brand was responsible for creating the SpeedForce. I would like to apologise as this isn't true. What I meant was that she is responsible for creating a trap in the SpeedForce for Savitar. Thanks... 

BTW, I'm getting excited to see what they are planning for us for season 4 of the Flash. Still hoping that it is lighter like season 1 & 2 and we actually get more of SnowBarry scenes as well as more of just Original Team Flash moments. 

                            //~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~\\~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~//

"Oliver, you don't need to get involved in this all you know. I mean, this isn't your mess," offered Barry.

"You aren't going to change my mind about this. We are in this together and I know that once I said that I don't work with anyone. But the moment I extended my hand is the day we all became a team. We will stand by each other... no matter what," replied Oliver.

With a final examination of the plan, they were off. They had no time to waste and no other choice.

                                          //~~~~~~~~~~~~~\\~~~~~~~~~~~//

Oliver waited outside, as Barry zoomed in and cleared their path. He made sure that the coast was clear and that that the camera's outside were looped in by Felecity (the outside one that she could hack into).

"Maybe it will be better if you avoid your speed for now," suggested Oliver.

With a nod, they made their way into the building, hiding in the shadows. The plan was simple and this also included not hurting anyone. They could not be caught or seen here. They came outside the door to which inside was the device that they were after. Oliver set his arrow to aim and fire as soon as Barry opened the door however, something else happened. As Barry reached out to open the door, with a swish a ice crystal darted and hit the doorknob. Both Flash and Arrow turned in complete horror on their face.

"Hello boys... What did you think, just because I wasn't invited to this party, I wouldn't come," came a cold voice from the shadows.

"Caitlin," said Flash and sure enough, Killer Frost stepped out of the shadows.

She was suited up and her hands were also blowing out cold mist. She was ready to attack. Sure enough, another crystal darted towards them and Arrow and Flash ducked. With a duck and roll, Arrow came to a stop and he saw a flash of light zoom behind Killer Frost. She slowly made her way towards Arrow.

"Oh boy, looks like the Flash has also gotten you involved in this all too. What empty promise did he make to you?" she asked in her cold voice.

"We stand together and face whatever we are thrown. We stand together and honour each other. That's what friends do," replied Arrow.

"I did honour our friendship at one point. I believed that Flash was the beacon of hope and a hero that we all needed. Yet like all hero's, the responsibility of others is too big and you become selfish... like he did," said Killer Frost with great bitterness. "Not all heroes have found their island yet."

"I don't know what happened but I know you Caitlin. You are better than this and I know deep down that you can still hear and understand me. We always have a choice. Yes, you were gifted or cursed with your abilities but how you use it is up to you," said Arrow in a calm voice.

"I always liked you Oliver, but you still remain friends with the Flash, which means that you would stay loyal to him. My job is to stop you both from getting that device."

Before she could attack again, Flash zoomed in and Killer Frost was swept her feet. She went sliding back and hit the wall. She turned around and Flash stood in between Arrow and Killer Frost.

"Caitlin we love you and we care too much about you to let you do something like this. This isn't you and no matter how much you want to ignore this all and forget who you truly are, I'm going to keep reminding you," said Flash.

"Love.. ha... you only loved and cared for one person... Iris. You were so focused on her future that you let mine slide. I only loved and trusted one person at STAR Labs and yet I stand alone," replied Killer Frost.

She pulled and then pushed her hands forward and with a bright flash of white, a ray of cold blast hit Flash and he flipped and went flying back. Arrow however, was faster and jumped out of the way.

The arrow that was for the electromagnetic field went flying out of his hands. He pulled out another arrow and aimed at Killer Frost. It hit the wall next to her and smoke started to blow out. This didn't bother her. She started to run towards him and with each step she took, she aimed and threw a crystal. Keeping up with the pace, so did Arrow. He made sure that the arrows were aimed to hurt her, not to harm her or kill her.

Flash joined in and tried to distract Killer Frost long enough for Arrow to take a shot at her. But she was quick as well. Four arrows came soaring through the air towards her and without any effort, she raised her hands and a wall rose blocking the arrow. With a great push of her hands, the wall went back towards Arrow. This came as a surprise for him but Flash was fast. He swished in and moved Arrow out of the way. The ice wall smashed and broke into tiny pieces.

Once again, with a great flash of white light, Killer Frost pushed a blast of cold ice towards Flash who ran and avoided it. Arrow and Flash stood behind a pillar as Killer Frost stopped.

"Remind me not to get on her bad side again," whispered Arrow.

"I can out run her, but when I'm gone she goes for you. It's like she knows whats going to happen."

"She is getting tired. With all that power, she does have weakness you know. We have to get her tired enough to get inside that door. There is something in there that may help stop her," said Arrow.

Arrow and Flash exchanged looks and nodded. It was now or never. They had to take a chance and get that device. Barry didn't want to hurt Caitlin and the only way to make sure that she was safe was to get her out of the way...
