Barry finally got the girl. He got Iris. He got the girl he was so focused on having to love. He thought he was in pure, unadulterated love. Then, Savitar came. He was obsessed with saving Iris. But, he also was, more secretly, Was obsessed with saving Caitlin. His Caitlin. He was studying so hard. Looking through books, trying his hardest, trying to find his love, his true love, a cure. Barry knew he liked Cait, but she was still getting over Ronnie. Plus, he liked Iris more, right?
The alarms in STAR Labs went off for probably the first time, cutting off all of his thoughts. He sped to the speed cannon, worried about who might be breaking in. The rest of Team Flash ran to the speed cannon, wondering why the alarms had gone off. Barry took notice of a beautiful young girl, who looked about 14 or 15, with long brown hair, below her waist, the same color as his hair. She also had some of the prettiest brown eyes, they were the same color as Cait's. There also was a slightly older version of Cisco.
"Well, this is your stop! Bye, Jules!" older Cisco had said, quickly leaving. The girl, who Barry assumed was Jules, looked very annoyed.
"That asshole! He knows I can't go home by myself!" the girl confirmed Barry's suspicions.
"Hey M-Miss Snow! Hi Barry!" The girl had said. Barry instantly became angry, wondering how and why she knew who they were.
"How do you know who we are? Who are you?" he shouted in anger, but also in curiosity.
"You don't know who I am? Oh yeah… I'm from he future, duh. My name's Julia A……" she had stopped saying her last name. Barry instantly became curious. Huh, he thought. Jules is a nickname. "I just realized that saying my last name possibly could alter future events. You'll have to figure it out, but I'll help you. It's nice to finally meet you Joe! And Iris, and let's not forget HR." he instantly became protective of her. He didn't know why, but he thought it may be that she had this personality that he had never seen anyone else have- she had this wonderful sparkle in her eye.
"Nice… to meet… you. Wait, if you know Barry, shouldn't you know me also? Don't we get married in the future?" Barry grit his teeth at her words. She had just assumed, that they were perfectly in love and would get married, but in all honesty, Barry wished that Cait had said those words.
"Can't say. It could alter future events." she replied. I honestly was amazed.
"How do you know all this?"
"What can I say? I was trained by he best- Cisco, Uncle Wally and Aunt Jesse, and all the most powerful beings in the nine realms and speed force. Except Lady Sif of Asgard. Oh shit! I did not say uncle Wally or Aunt Jesse. Just, Wally and Jesse. You know what, why don't you guys do a blood test and just see who I am."
"Yeah, follow me." Barry said calmly, soothed by Julia's presence.
"Race you there?" she asked sheepishly, innocently.
"No thanks," he denied, not wanting to hurt her feelings when he one.
"What, afraid to get your ass kicked by a 17-year-old?" his eyes widened in shock.
"You're 17? You look way younger!" Barry exclaimed, very, very shocked. She sighed and held the bridge of her nose, in an endearing way.
"Fuck off, Barry. You can't be talking. What are you, 14? I swear I get it from you." she sighed tiredly, but mumbled the last part. Even Joe laughed at that.
"I'll race you, if that's what you want." Barry was just about ready to give the young girl the world.
"3. 2. 1. Go!" they both shouted at the same time. Julia arrived in the cortex a long time before Barry.
"How fast are you?" Barry asked, incredulously.
"Faster than you," she replied in a cheeky tone.
Caitlin had taken her blood, letting the team figure out who she was. Meanwhile, Barry had taken the time to get to know this speedster. Suddenly Caitlin spoke up.
"Huh. That's weird." Julia held a knowing grin. "You have a mix of me and Barry's DNA."
"Not that weird if you think about it. I have mom's eyes and Dad's hair color. My skin is freaking pale like the both of them. I look like a freaking 13 year old and Im 17." Julia spoke up. Barry and Caitlin smiled at her.
"I… have a daughter?" he asked rhetorically, hugging his 17-year-old daughter, trying to not let go. Barry realized, that he and Cait might actually get a future with each other.
