While I was dealing with our second attempted robbery tonight, Barry went to go deal with someone for indecent exposure. Personally I think I got the better end of the deal. I just cuffed the robbers and was waiting for the police when I heard Barry through my comms, "Hey, we got another robbery 18th and Olive", he said. I groaned, "But I just got the last guys", I complained as I hopped on my bike. He laughed, "I'll meet you there", he said and I smiled as I started racing down the street on my bike. What is it with the criminals in this city tonight?
I made it to the jewelry store right as Dad and Eddie did. We all stormed in together catching them at the door, "Hey freeze", they said just as Barry sped in and took their guns. He looked at them smugly, "You guys missing these?", he teased while Eddie got the theives on the ground and cuffed them. I stood next to my Dad as Barry came and stood on the other side of me, "So, I'm just curious, have you not heard of us?", I asked rhetorically gesturing to Barry and myself.
Barry and my dad laughed and fist bumped and I looked at Eddie, "Nice work, detective", I said smiling as we grabbed the idiots and took them out to the cop car which was pretty full.

"Death by apitoxin", Caitlyn said walking into the room after analyzing a sample from the crime scene this morning. Apparently, a woman had been killed in her car and had little puncture wounds all over her body. I looked at her, "English, please?", I joked.
Dr. Wells looked at me, "Honeybee venom", he said while confused himself. Cisco and I shuddered, "Bees. Why did it have to be bees?", we both questioned at the same time. Dr. Wells was thinking, "But when a honeybee stings, their stinger is literally torn from their abdomin and they die", he said confused. I looked at everyone, "So wouldn't there be little dead bee bodies in the car?", I asked Barry. He shook his head, "There weren't any. Not even any stingers in the body", he said.
Caitlyn looked at her report, "A honeybee can only deposit .1 miligrams of apitoxin when it releases it's stinger", she says. Dr. Wells looks at it too, "And yet, Ms. Kang was found with enough venom in her system to kill a herd of elephants. It appears not only is a metahuman controlling bees but also increasing their toxicity", he said. Barry looked at us, "Bees communicate by releasing pheromones. Maybe this meta is controlling them through secretion?", he wondered.
Cisco looked around, "Any one wanna join me in getting a beekeeper suit?", he asked. I nodded," I'll have to sit this one out. I'm deadly allergic to bees", I shivered at the time I almost died from a singular bee sting when I was 10. Barry laughed a little and wrapped his arms around me from behind, "I'm pretty sure I can outrun a bee", he said making me roll my eyes.
"Just don't run into a lake", we all turned to see Felicity standing in the doorway, "Bees will wait for you to come up for air and then they'll sting you. Discovery Channel. Turns out there is a lot to discover", she said. I smiled at her, "Hey, what are you doing here?", I asked. She looked at us, "Could you guys come outside for a sec?", she asked.
