Bart easily got out of Nora's grasp but breaking Thad from Barry's was harder said than done but it was doable. After prying Thad free they ran to a corner.

"What do we do...?" Thad questions in a hushed high pitch whisper. This was Star Labs but none of the people looked the same.

"We can't take them on...follow my lead." Bart replies before putting his hands up showing them that he meant no harm.

"You're gonna get us killed." Thad states mimicking the young Allen child, letting out a small huff of annoyance.

Bart looks away from him and towards the team and says, "Quit thinking like Eaobard. Start thinking for yourself!"

Once he hears the name Eaobard, Barry goes on the defense and in the blink of an eye he's putting them in one of the pipeline cells. He steps out quickly before the doors shut, locking them inside. Fear laces Thaddeus's eyes and he tries to break the glass, knowing all too well he couldn't. He was powerless, again.

In an attempt to calm him Bart says, "Thad, calm down...this has to be a precaution..."

Thad turns around to face Bart, his face was pale with fear and he was on the verge of having a panic attack. Grabbing ahold of Thad he pulls him into a hug and whispers, "If you don't calm down, you're going to have a panic attack and pass out. Just listen to the sound of my voice, close your eyes."

Listening to Bart, Thad closes his eyes and tries to stop shaking. Still whispering Bart continues, "Think of a clearing in a forest. The running water falling from the waterfall and into the lake. It's warm buts it's not too hot and there's a breeze blowing your hair back."

Bart watches as Thad's shaking stops and his breathing returns to its normal pace. Thad's eyes open and fear is no longer present. The two teenagers were soon met with the whole team Flash, all powered up and in their suits. Once Thad sees Killer Frost it doesn't take him long to calmly puts Bart in front of him. After a bad confrontation with her on his earth he didn't want to go anywhere near her.

"Who are you and where did you come from?" Barry asks calmly, trying his best not to spook the already shaken up teenagers.

Putting his hand in a somewhat protective manner near Thad he answers, "Impulse, Earth 5."

"Who's he?" Cisco asks, curiosity getting the best of him.

"Inertia, Earth 5." Inertia tells them, not moving from his spot of safety behind Bart. They might have familiar faces but they didn't have the same faces and he didn't trust them, but it wasn't like he trusted the originals either.

Cisco turning to Barry and says, "Great, I can open a breach and send them home."

"But who knows why they were even brought here. You said a wormhole just opened then there had to be a reason why." Nora interjects, voicing her opinion on the matter. She just like a few others were confused as to why and how they were brought here through the wormhole.

Iris steps forward from her spot in the back behind Barry and asks the two, "Can you tell us how you were brought here? Maybe it can clear this whole thing up and we can help you get back home."

"I was in the middle of an argument with my family, they thought I was in over my head with something. Then out of nowhere this thing opened up and pulled me here." Bart replies telling team Flash his reclamation of events.

Thad lets out a small sighted sigh and with it begins to let go, "For me it was similar but in my case, it was a saving grace. I was about to receive punishment before something opened up and pulled me here."

"We don't know why we're here but I can assure you we aren't a threat." Bart replies trying to convince them they were okay. That they weren't going to hurt anyone.

Iris walks over to the control pad and opens the doors releasing them. "Welcome to Earth 1."

Everyone else walks out but Barry, Bart, and Thad. Barry asks, "Why did you say the name Eobard earlier?"

"He's my handler." Thad replies looking down at the ground.

Barry was about to put him right in the cell just out of caution until Bart steps in front of Thad, "That doesn't make him a villain."

Changing his tone, Barry says to the two, "Come on," He motions for them to follow him, "I'll show you guys where you'll be staying."

He leads them to the lounge and says, "It's not much but the couches are comfortable, the fridge is stocked so help yourselves to anything."

The first thing Bart did was zoom all around the room looking around his surroundings, asking questions like if anyone else was living there or if he could help out with any of their villains. Thaddeus was getting a headache at the fast-paced questions that were getting thrown around. It didn't take him to find himself in the speed lab, running and running.

No matter how fast he ran he couldn't escape the war that was going on inside him or the one that's been going between the Thawnes and the Allens for years. He couldn't shake Eaobards' touch.

Iris, Nora, and Cisco watched the speedster as he ran, his green lightning lighting up the circular track. Bart and Barry soon joined them. Once Bart saw Thad running he ran up to meet the mood speedster and ran with them, their lightning mixing together. After hours of running, they were met with everyone waiting on them at the bottom of the speed lab.

"Can you two come with me?"
