11.2 deep, dark secret—REWRITTEN—
"Being scooped up by a guy clad in head-to-toe leather is a long time fantasy of mine, so thanks." Hartley says as we walk him in S.T.A.R. Labs. He looks at me. "You know, I know who you are, Liv." I scoff and take off my mask and walk over to Cisco and Caitlin. "Well, Well, Well, the gang's all here." He looks at Cisco, "You've lasted longer than I would've thought, Cisco."
"And you didn't last 10 seconds against the Flash and the Phoenix," Cisco says.
"I was thinking about calling myself Pied Piper," Hartley says as I internally slap myself for liking his idea.
"Hey! I assign the nicknames around here. Although that one's not bad," He tells him.
Hartley turns to look at me. He opens his mouth to say something, but I interrupt. "I would choose your next words very carefully, because I will kill you in 1 out of the 500 ways I know how to."
He smirks. "Still, same old Liv." He looks at Caitlin. "Caitlin, Never did get that wedding invite."
"Shut the hell up!" Barry says to him as he pushes him to Cisco.
"Stay in front of me," Cisco tells him as him and Cait walk away.
I look at Barry. "You okay?" I ask.
"Yeah," He says. "Just wondering if what Hartley said is true. What do you think?"
"I don't believe him," I say. "My Dad wouldn't lie to me." We then start walking towards the others, his arm bumping into mine. I call my powers before anything can happen and step away from him. Looking over at him, I see him doing the same thing. We separate a bit and start walking again as I mumble, "At least I hope not." I don't mean for anyone to hear it, but I assume Barry did as he had turned his gaze to me for a few seconds after I said that.
We scan Hartley after putting him in the pipeline. Barry is watching from upstairs, due to his secret identity. "The scanner is detecting foreign metallic objects in your ears. Take 'em out," Cisco says.
"I can't I suffered head trauma when S.T.A.R. Labs exploded. My hearing was severed damaged. Without these, I'm in pain you can't imagine. We all lost something that night," He says after Cait and I walk over to Cisco. "Ha. Very clever repurposing the anti-proton cavities into confinement cells. Wells' idea, I'm sure." I roll my eyes.
"Mine, actually," Cisco says to him.
"Pequeño cisco, todavía mendigando la aprobación de su amo," Hartley says to him.
"Si eres tan inteligente, ¿por qué estás en una jaula?" Cisco asks him.
"Hartley don't make this harder than it has to be," Cait tells him.
