Oliver stopped when the guy in the mask fell and stayed down. He looked around and spotted the others. Cisco and Diggle were fighting off anyone came in there way as they evacuated people go safety. He only saw flashes of yellow which also indicated Barry doing his part. Oliver's glaze stopped one person. She stood tried her best to get through the men in mask and help people around her. Cailtin froze when two guys in mask blocked her way. There was fear in her eyes but to Oliver's  surprise, nothing happened... Killer Frost didn't appear. 

He started to make his way to her but got held up when he heard a screams. 

Cailtin, tried to stay calm and she was shaking in fear. She knew that no matter what happened or how scared she became, Killer Frost wasn't going to show. 

"Trying to be the hero are we?" Asked the first guy. "You shouldn't poke your pretty little nose where it doesn't belong." 

"We can't.... Just stand around... And do nothing," she manage to choke out. "We aren't scared of you." 

Without any warning, the two infiltrators exchanged glances and charged at Cailtin. She was taken aback but she stayed her ground. She ducked when one punch came her way. She tried to run but someone kicked her ankle and she tripped. Turning to see the two guys, she closely missed when the other guy came to grab her. As the adrenaline kicked in, the anger of Killer Frost boiled inside her. 

She jumped up and kicked the first guy in the stomach. As he fell the second one came at her and his elbow met with her cheekbone. Pain rushed to her head but she kept going. When the two guys threw a punch, she would either dough it and hit back. Some punchs and kicks brought her to her knees but she showed no weakness. 

Even though Killer Frost wasn't there, her mind remained like her. Her surrounding was spinning, she was covered with cuts and bruises and blood was coming out of the corner of her lips and forehead. She was too weak now to continue fighting. She saw in the corner of her eyes, a third person coming towards her and giving into the pain and she turned but everything started to blank out. Darkness was taking over and in that darkness, she managed to see a flash of yellow and then.... Nothing...

Felecity sat next to Cailtin who still remained unconscious. By the looks of it, she was badly beaten up and by everyone else, they too didn't look too good. 

"Do we even know what that was all about. It's like no body in this town want to even talk about what it was. Some guys charge in here with guns and hurt all these people yet nothing," said Barry in anger. 

"I know what you mean but right now we just have to wish that Cailtin is ok. I don't get why and how Killer Frost never made an appearance," though Harrison. 

"This place keeps getting weirder ans weirder. If it weren't for that storm, we could have been out of here by now." 

"You do realise that we are too involved in this to just let it go. We can't just turn out backs on this place especially after what happened today," spoke up Diggle.

"As much as I want to get out of this place, I gave to agree with Diggle. Non of you will let it go if we just left without even trying to figure out what this is all about," said Thea. 

"Guys, I think she is waking up," hushed Felecity. 

Caitlin slowly flickered her eyes as she heard muffled voiced. She waited for her eyes to ajust to the light and for her eyes to focus. Finally she opened her eyes and saw the faces of Barry and Felecity. 

Concern showed all over their faces as they waited for her to open her eyes properly before bombarding her with questions. 

"What happened out there?" 

"Are you ok?" 

"You scared us?" 

"Why didnt Killer Frost..." 

Cailtin looked around confused as she didn't even know what was happening. 

"I'm so glad that you are ok," said Barry finally as silence fell. "Non of knew what happened and it worried us."

"Hon...honestly even I don't really know what happened. I remember trying to fend off those guys but... I..."

"We don't care about that. We just were worried about you," smiled Cisco. 

"I'm sorry guys. I really didn't know what happened. I... I don't know what is happening with the whole Frost situation."

"Ok, let's not worry about that. We have other things to worry about and right now I think Caitlin needs to freshen up," suggested Felecity. 

One by one all started to leave. Caitlin sat on the bed watching as she felt embarrassed by what had happened. She really wanted to be able to fight 

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

Caitlin sat on the bed in silence as she kept running the whole thing in her mind. Anger turned inside her she hated lying to everyone. She heard a soft knock on the door and Barry's head popped in. He smiled at her and Caitlin felt even more guilty. It pained her to lie to him and yet she had no choice. 

"I hope you are up for visitors?" He asked. 

Cailtin nodded and Barry came and sat down next to her. She slowly turned away trying to hide her face. 

"I...I'm  sorry that I wasn't much help out there. Cailtin is useless when it comes to things like that. I bet Killer Frost..." Started Cailtin.

"Caitlin, we don't blame you for anything. We don't care that you are fighting on the field. Just because you aren't there doesn't mean Team Flash doesn't need you. We... I'm  nothing without you and I can only do what I do out there because you are wiht me... By my side no matter what," expressed Barry. 

Caitlin still looked away and Barry knew that she was trying to hide the bruises on her face (She was cleaning her wounds). Barry got up and sat in front of her and took the cotton wool. Caitlin slowly hesitated at this but let him take it.

"Caitlin, I don't care about what Killer Frost can or can't do. You come first always and you are already an amazing person. I love her too much to let her be alone...ever," assured Barry. 

Caitlin let out a deep breath and slowly turned her head towards Barry. She could see concern and warmth in his eyes. It killer her not being able to tell him the truth. She knew that he would understand but something  was holding her back.
