My eyes were still closed but I could see red through my eyelids.
It was from a bright light over my face.
I start slowly going my sight and my feeling in my body.
I struggled sitting. "Where, where am I?" I said trying to stand and falling off of the bed I was on.

My eyesight was blurry as a figure started walking toward me.
I got up the best I could. "Stay away from me." I said quietly trying to muster up strength to keep standing. I was leaning on the wall.
"I think she will be fine, but somethings odd." It was a voice I knew.... it was Caitlin.

"Caitlin, is that you?" I asked through the pain.
"She's been poisoned by the knife Cisco!"
"Fun." I said trying my best to see.
Then everything went black again.

I woke up but this time fully.
Slowly everything became clear.
"Where am I?" I asked sitting up fast.
"Your at S.T.A.R Labs." Caitlin said as she walked to me. In the middle of the room there was a white big table and Cisco had a headset on and was spinning in a chair sucking on a sucker.

"Um, huh? Why am I here?" I asked confused as I looked at Caitlin.
"Well you was poisoned but we don't exactly know how. Your healed and there's no entry wounds, not even a single needle prick."
She said confused but I knew it was because I healed fast.
I tired my best to look confused and scared.
"Wh-what do you mean? Am I going to die?" Okay I over did it but it sold.

"No we think your okay now, but would you mind staying so we could do further tests?" She asked. I knew if I stayed I could end up blowing my cover. "Um see my friends in town and I can't leave her alone at my house." I said scared as she might find my suit I hid or the knife that was under the carpet with my blood.

"That's okay we will tell her."
"No! No-no that's um, that's okay." I said fastly.
I got up and started walking to the exit I just realized my clothes had blood all over me it and that they found no entry wound. SHIT!
What's my excuse then? What I can't just tell them I heal fast.

Cisco was on the headset screaming. "No-no don't come back just ye-."
I was flung 3 feet into the floor. All I could do was sit and groan from a bone being cracked.
"What the fuck man!" I screamed.
I look up and I see the flash dressed up and shock on his face.
"Son of a bitch." I muttered.

"I need to get going." I said as I stood holding my broke arm knowing I'd heal.
The flash vibrated his face and voice.
"No I didn't Emma! oh my god I'm so sorry, let me help, stay here and we can help."

"No thanks I'm good." I said walking out of the lab.
Caitlin stoped me in the hallway and dashed in front of me.
"Let me at least explain." She begged.
"Explain what?" I asked.
"Why I work with the Flash and didn't tell you." Honesty I completely forgot as I didn't 'actually know'.

"It's cool" I said still trying to walk forward.
"No it not and I'm sorry I should have told you." She said.
I tuned to her and looked dead in the eyes.
"Chill, it's okay, it's your life and your secrets so you didn't 'have' to tell me anything and trust me I'm okay with it." I said smiling even though my arm still hurt.

"Oh. Thanks for understanding." She said a slight smile.
Then all a sudden everything went black,


*ON THE PHONE*

"Emma I'll send help if you need me to."
"Okay I'm going to get the flash to help yo-"
"No I'm okay, I'm here, I'm good." I coughed up blood on myself.
"Oh you had me worried Em."
"I'm good, I heal fast remember?" I said laughing and regretting it.
"Good luck Em." I heard.
"You too." Then I hung up.
