Dear readers... Hope this whole COVID-19 and Isolation is treating you well. Keep safe and stay inside. Hope this new chapter is worth a read. Can't wait for new episodes of The Flash to return.

"Thea... Thea? Can you hear me," called Harrison. He tried to get closer to her but couldn't. 

"Aaaww," moaned Thea. She rolled over but kept her eyes closed. She was too scared to even open her eyes. She couldn't stop seeing the girl. 

"I know you are scared. You can't help but see her and it's scaring you that no one else can see her," comforted Harrison. 

"H... How did you know that is what I was thinking?" she asked in a small whisper.

"You have been mumbling while you were unconscious. I wish I could help you in any way but this is your battle and it's something that you have to overcome." 

Thea slowly opened her eyes, half expecting to see the girl but let out a small sigh of relief when she was no where to be seen.

"I don't know why I'm the only one that can see her. It is starting to scare me and it is now starting to affect my ability to help this team. My fear is taking over."

"Fear is what makes us stronger and pushes us. You may not see it but you just need to get a hold of it and soon it won't be something that scares you," advised Harrison. "I know that Caitlin hack everyone here is facing some kind of fear and they all feel helpless but that is what it is going to save us."

"Oh look at that... Our own cheerleader."

Thea and Harrison stopped and watched at the new addition to the room. Dreama came in and exchanged looks with both Harrison and Thea as if looking for something. 

"You are like the team cheer squad are you not?" she asked as she sat in front of Harrison. "The guy who pulls the strings."

"I don't know what you are talking about?" 

"Oh come on. You seriously want me to believe that when that team goes out to... so call save the city they don't have you in their heads telling them what to do?" Dreama smiled. "Oh by the way i know who you all are. The Flash, Arrow, Speedy, Vibe but I'm really interested to meet this Killer Frost. Seems like she is a little shy lately."

Thea and Harrison again shared a worried look. They were helpless and this crazy woman knew the identities of the team. 

"You lot chose the wrong place to save. This city didn't need saving but now it would be a tragedy to see these heroes die."

"What do you want from us? Actually what do you want from this city? Why are you keeping them in fear?" asked Thea finally managing to get enough strength to sit up.

"Oh dear, I'm not that dumb to tell you all my plans. But I will tell you this much, I'm hoping one of you will join me and I'm pretty sure they will be very much happy to come on over."

Dreama left, leaving the two confused about what she had said. Which of them would be happy to leave and join her and why?

"Barry, what's happening?" asked Oliver. "It's frustrating to not be able to see."

"Nothing much. We are still stuck in this room and no one has come in or out. They must have forgotten about us."

"I doubt that. They surely must have a plan for us."

Just then the door opened and 8 large men came inside and roughly pulled them out into a larger room. Barry looked around and for the first time in who knows how long, he saw all his team members. They all looked scared, dirty and tied up but not one seemed to be harmed. 

His eyes locked with Caitlin who gave a weak smile. A small dim light of happiness grew inside him on seeing her safe. But there was something else in her eyes. He couldn't put his finger on it.

He really wished he could use his abilities to help his team. On the other side, Caitlin was also thinking the same thing. For the first time in a long time she wished Killer Frost would take over and help. She could use her abilities and her strength. 

"Look at that. The whole family of superheroes are here. You all had the chance to leave and never come back yet you fools decided to stay and play hero. Well you won't be dying a hero's death here."

"I don't regret my decision to stay and help this city. I will make that choice again and again. I have faced much worse things than you and managed to get out on the other side. What makes you think that you are going to defeat us?" Oliver yelled. 

"For one you can't even see me," laughed Dreama.

"Seeing you to fight you isn't the only way to stop you."

"I really don't care what you have to say. All I'm going to say is that you can join me and I will spare your lives. I don't have any problems in killing you otherwise."

"I would rather die than turn around and join you and your thugs," snapped Cisco. "I have too much of Oliver's wisdom in me." Cisco winked at Oliver with a smile and then realised that he couldn't see him. 

Dreama laughed at this. "Even the most purest of hearts can break and you all are just humans... Well some of you are more than just normal humans I can see." 

She was looking at Caitlin. There was something on Dreama's face every time she looked at her. What was she trying to say or what did she want with Caitlin.

Thea suddenly froze. She couldn't take her eyes away from what she saw behind Caitlin. Was it even possible but with all that had being happening it could. Behind Caitlin stood what looked like the image of Tommy. He wasn't his usual self. He had fear in his eyes and he was trying to tell Thea something. If only she could move or even believe her eyes.
