"You never needed me on this team, not from the start. The Flash is what this city needs, and I can never be it. That's just the reality of it, Bare. I'll never be enough for anyone."
Alex Holt changed her future once before, now she's being tested...

Cisco didn't understand what was happening. He had been in STAR labs, tinkering with a device that they would use in the metahuman task force. Barry had been at the precinct looking at old case files, he needed anything to get his mind off the fact that he had just gotten his father back only to leave him once again. An alarm had gone off in the cortex, Cisco assumed another metahuman.
"Holy Shit."
He immediately called Barry to tell him what was going on, but the speedster hadn't noticed the phone ringing. Cisco dialed again only to gain the same response. He peered out the window of STAR labs, shocked at the sight before him.
During his time in STAR Labs, Cisco had seen a lot of crazy things. Everything that had happened to the city had all been centered around none other than The Flash. The crazy meta humans that tried to over take the city, and the none meta ones too. The Reverse Flash that haunted everyone's dreams and the worm hole that he had created.
Cisco was used to seeing crazy things. He was used to seeing his friends get hurt in battles, and he was used to having to use his big brain to think of something right on the spot. Time and time again he relied on his smarts to save him, his friends, and the innocent civilians of Central City.
With everything that he had seen, not much came to a shock to him anymore. However, what he was seeing out of the window? That was something that he never expected to see in his life time, even with the crazy things that happened to him as a scientist and as a member of Team Flash.
A loud boom of thunder crossed the clear sky, a clear sign of one of their previous metas - Mark Mardon. However, it couldn't have been him using his powers, Cisco knew that. A single storm cloud leached over Central City, it that wasn't what caught his attention.
Lights of scarlet and blue raced through the streets, disappearing for several seconds and then reappearing several blocks over. The movements appeared spontaneous at first, but then he noticed the scorch marks on the streets. It was the same pattern over and over again, the lightning had spelled one word: ZOOM.
Down below on the streets of Central City, traffic jams had been caused by accidents, windows of buildings shattered from the shear speed that had passed by them. Lightning struck power poles and tall buildings, which caused power outages throughout the city. All this damages caused by one person: Mirage.
Barry Allen had picked up on what was happening outside. He could see the chaos from his lab, though he wasn't sure what had caused it. Never had he seen one meta human cause so much damage on their own. The speedster changed into his suit and raced outside, only to be met with a familiar streak.
As the person ran in front of him, he could distinctly tell that the suit being worn was the same as his catatonic girlfriend's. Barry raced after the sight of Alex, unsure of what she was doing or if she even had control of herself. There had been no sign of her waking up from her coma, this had been sudden.
