Unexpected Chemistry

Hannible Bates

     "W-What the hell?" Caitlin replied. Ralph chuckled and began to walk up to her. His hair was medium length. Not as long as Cisco's, but his bangs were long and covering half of his face. Barry stood in front of Caitlin.

     "Back up." He muttered. Ralph looked at Barry. They were at eye level. Caitlin looked up at the two of them. They were at least two inches away from their chests touching. They were angry. They looked like they were ready to fight. Caitlin then went in the middle of their chest and split them up. One hand on each chest.

     "Allen and Snow. Fighting crime together? With a cute little son." Ralph murmured while looking down at Caitlin. Ralph towered over her. It was intimidating to Caitlin. With Barry, there was no heigh difference with Ralph. Barry might actually be a little bit taller.

     "What did you do to my son?" Caitlin asked giving and angry glare and taking her hand off his chest. It then began forming a fist. She was angry. That intimidated yet impressed Barry.

     "He and your buddy Cisco are not present. I mean they are together, just nowhere where you'll find them." Ralph replied looking straight into Caitlin's eyes. Caitlin squinted hers.

     "If you come even close to touching him, I will tear you to shreds, you understand?" She threatened. Barry raised his eyebrows. Ralph forced a chuckle. He got closer to her. Caitlin then punched him square in the jaw. He fell to the ground with a smirk on his face. Barry widened his eyes. Caitlin didn't look finished. She walked up to him.

"Tell me where my son is or I'll make you." She muttered in nothing but anger. Ralph laughed and stood up.

"It's not that easy, Caity." He answered. Caitlin then punched him again. He fell to the ground harder.

"I'm sorry?" Caitlin hissed. Ralph looked up at her. He was still chuckling with an evil look. Barry didn't need to help. Caitlin's got this.

"You won't even him if you kill me, sweet Caity." Ralph responded. Caitlin then got to level with him.

"No, but I can break your nose." She replied before closing her fist tight and punching his nose. Ralph fell back falling unconscious. Barry then ran over and took Caitlin back.

"Okay, I think he got the message." He spoke. Caitlin was angry. He had never seen her so angry. She was pacing. She was worried. She was frustrated.

"Caitlin, relax. I promise we will find him. Together." Barry comforted. Caitlin continued to pace.

"Why Ralph? Ralph of all people Barry. My duty as a mother is to keep him safe. I cant do that if I have no idea where he is!" She shouted. Barry sighed and walked to her. Caitlin had her hand on her head. She was so tense. Until Barry held her hand. He gripped it tightly.

"We will find him. I have super speed. I will search everywhere." He said before kissing her hand. Caitlin nodded slowly. Of course Barry was angry. He wanted to kill Ralph, but instead he planned to speed him into a cell to get answers. So that's what he did. He went back to Caitlin who was standing in the same place.

"I will search the whole city." He said with assurance. Caitlin nodded before feeling her hair blow back. Barry was out of sight and so was Ralph. Caitlin then sat down at her desk. She was now shaking. It started with anger, now she's in fear. 'Where is my son?' She thought to herself. She then looked at her computer and got a thought.

"Oh my god...I can track Cisco's phone!" She remembered before typing away on her keyboard. Barry sped back in. Caitlin looked up at him.

"They aren't in the city. Not that I could see." He spoke. Caitlin sighed but still had hope. She continued typing. Barry furrowed his eyebrows and walked over.
