The Silver Siren (Completed)

Trust Issues

We all looked at the man confused and nervous about his warning, "Please, let me explain. I mean you no harm", he pleaded with us seeing our defensive stances. Barry looked at him, "How do you know my name?", he asked. He looked at us all, "I know all your names. Caitlyn Snow, Cisco Ramon, Detective Joe West", he looked around at everyone then stopped at me, "Delaney West", he said different from the rest. The way he said my name made me nervous for some reason, like he knew me before. 

Dad stopped him, "Enough. That part about explaining needs to happen right about now", he demanded. Jay looked at us, "This world is in danger", he warned us. I looked at him confused, "What do you mean this world? There are other worlds?", I asked. He looked at us, "When you created the singularity above Central City, you also created a breach between my world and yours", he started explaining. 

Iris looked at him confused, "I'm sorry, a breach?", she asked, voicing all of our thoughts. He nodded, "Yes, a portal connecting our two earths", he said. Stein looked at him, "And what precisely is your concern?", he asked. Jay continued, "A few days ago, you found a dead man named Al Rothstein at the nuclear plant. But then a different Al Rothstein tried to kill you", he said looking at Barry. Cisco whispered, "Atom Smasher", he looked at Barry. 

Jay continued, "If he got through the breach, I suspect there'll be more to follow", he explained to us. Barry laughed a little, "Okay, so Jay, how exactly do you know all of this?", he asks unsure about the stranger. Jay nodded, "Where I come from, I was a speedster like you. They called me The Flash", he said making me look between both of them. 

When no one said anything else, he kept telling his story, "Before I arrived on your earth, I was in a fight with a man named Zoom", he said and I looked at Barry. "Wait that's who Atom Smasher said sent him to kill you", I remembered and Barry nodded. Barry looked at Jay, "He's a speedster and fast. Maybe the fastest of all. But evil. He is an unstoppable demon with the face of death. We were engaged in our fiercest battle ever, racing throughout my city. But I wasn't fast enough to stop him. Zoom had me beat. He was about to kill me when suddenly there was a blinding light and the sky split open. A breach, between my world and yours, caused from the singularity. It pulled me in, and I somehow ended up in your world. Powerless, unable to return home", he said, sounding very sad. 

Caitlyn looked at him, "What do you mean?", she asked him. He looked down, "I lost my speed", he informed us. Barry shrugged, "How?", he asked, confused how he could've lost his speed. Jay looks at us, "Not entirely sure", he says. Dad turns to Barry who just shrugs, showing that he didn't understand either. I crossed my arms and looked at the man, "So, you've been in Central City for six months. Why haven't you come to see us before", I asked. He looked me in the eyes, "I'm in a foreign world here. I didn't know who you all were. Took me that long to piece it all together", he said. 

I scoffed, "So you've been following us?", I realized, that's how he knew all about us. He sighs, "Look, I know how this sounds. The existence of another earth, you, another Flash", he looked at Barry, "It all came as an unexpected shock to me, too. I just wish there was something I could do to convince you", he says sounding desperate. Barry nods, "There is. We're gonna do some tests on you. See if you're telling us the truth. Because if you're not, this Zoom, he's not going to be your only enemy", Barry threatened.

While Caitlyn was running tests on Jay, the rest of us were in the Cortex talking everything over, "Is any of this possible? A breach to another earth? It's not, right?", she asked as we all looked at the Professor. He shook his head, "The contrary, just recently, the many-different-worlds theory proposed interaction with parallel universes was plausible. Now if what Mr. Garrick is saying is true, that theory's been proven sooner than we all thought", he explained.
