The red daughter of Star City

Chapter 5 - Unexpected

The night fell with a chill in the air. Barry looked at his phone and pressed the hung up button feeling a bit confused. Sara looked curious at him.

- So...?

- Oliver called. He said Kara was acting weird and told him that the answer to what Doomsday is lies with our Kara and her team on Earth 38.

- Oh... Nice – Sara looked down her feet.

Barry felt his heart jump a bit while he thought crossed his mind. Once again he would have to cross worlds to get answers to his problems, but it didn't mean he had to do it alone. He smiled as Sara looked back at him.

- Do you want to come with me?

- Sure, why not? I always wondered what super Earth was like.

- Let's go then... We will need Cisco for this.

They were about to go back inside Star Labs when they heard a noise and looked back. It was really dark and the wind was strong that night.

- Long time no see, my love

Sara took a few steps closer to the person who said that, looking completely shocked when she realized who that was.

- Nyssa?

Barry crossed his arms, intrigued. He wasn't a fan of anyone at the League of Assassins, even if Nyssa had fought beside them in the past. He couldn't trust that woman.

- You're hurt... - Barry said taking a few steps closer, stopping beside Sara.

- I had the unpleasant visit of Merlyn! That bastard was dead, wasn't he?

- Yes, but this is another version of him...

- What nonsense is that now? - She looked incredulous at Barry.

- Time travel. Hard to explain. – He kept his serious face.

Sara seemed shocked and bothered by Nyssa's presence. Ever since Sara came back to life, years ago, she wondered about her ex, how was she, was she happy? Sara never looked for her when she got a second chance to live, she joined the Legends and her life turned upside down since then. The look in Nyssa's eyes was of pure hurt mixed with surprise.

- Malcolm got the League back together and they found me. They think I'm a traitor when I turned down his proposal of joining him in some sort of group, I don't know... He said big things are about to happen, and when I said no, the bastard attacked me!

- We are investigating this group and their plans so we can stop them...

- Oh, good luck love – Nyssa interrupted Sara – You'll need.

- Looks like you lost faith in me – Sara said, holding Nyssa as they walked back inside Star Labs, Barry following them in silence.

Once back, Sara took care of Nyssa's wounds while they talked. It felt weird, for both of them, but they ignored it as they had urgent matters on their hands. Nyssa thanked Sara for her help and promised to help them in case they needed. Sara said goodbye and walked outside, near the huge hangar they had in the facility. Barry watched as Sara left, feeling something was bothering her. He could leave her to her thoughts, or try to help. He decided to follow her, and found her sat in a chair, looking at the ceiling and taking a few breaths.

- I'm ok, Barry. You can go back now!

If there was one thing that Barry could see, it was that Sara was not ok at all. He looked at her and thought about what to say.

- I don't believe you.

Sara looked at Barry with a death stare. He didn't back down.

- I know you like to be tough and hide your feelings, I noticed that the day I met you, but I know underneath it all, you are not ok. And there's nothing wrong with that...
