Stuck in the Past

Chapter 27

POV CAITLIN:

When we all thought that today would be another calm day like everyone else, we realized that it might not be so. At the end of lunch, we were all going back to the lab when I got a call from Dawn.

I answered the call quickly, as she might be in need of something, but no one spoke. It was like those children's games, where they call people but you can only hear someone's breathing.

- If you want to see your daughter, follow the coordinates that I will send to this number.

Seconds later I received this message with the coordinates and when we arrived at the place, I quickly recognized the place where we were. This was the bar where I worked when Killer Frost took over my body and when Barry got stuck in Speed ​​Force.

We entered carefully because we didn't know what we could count or how many people were inside, but we arrived at the main hall and there was no trace of either our girl or the voice that spoke to me on the cell phone, which was worrying.

We looked around the room and beyond the old tables and chairs that were leaning against a corner and the counter where the drinks were, there were three kinds of cages.

- Finally they arrived, I was eager to finally meet the great superheroes of this city.

"Who are you and where is our girl?" I asked but the girl did not answer me.

- Your girl is fine ... In fact she was never in danger ... I had to find a way to make you come here.

- Oh good! A crazy fan! Listen girl, if you wanted an autograph you didn't need to set up this whole theater, you just had to ask.- I said, already transformed into Killer Frost.

- My dad told me you were funny. You know, he had some admiration for you ...

- Oh, good and your father is ...- I asked hoping she would answer me, but that never happened.

- We will get to it. First I have to put you in those cages. You know, it's for my own safety.

- Safety? She is sick, she can only.

We knew that to get out of here, we would have to fight it, but as soon as our confrontation started, we realized that we were at a disadvantage. You know, what none of us expected was that in addition to this girl being a metahuman, her power was special ... That is, her power was to replicate the powers of other metahumans and it just took a touch.

This complicated our task astronomically, but we still tried to defeat it. The first to go into the first into the cage was Barry. She started out by launching some storms and although Barry managed to escape most of them, the last one literally made him fly inside.

Then it was Cisco's turn to go inside. Although the power of Vibe was working, she, using the speed of Flash, managed to be faster than him. Finally, it was my turn.

"This is going to be fun," she said with a smile bigger than she was.

I managed to launch some mini ice storms that mostly hit her in the legs, which made her fall a few times, but that just seemed to enrage her even more. I know that maybe this is neither the ideal time nor the ideal place, but I was even having a little fun.

Of course, my fun ended when she combined the powers of Flash and Vibe and although I still tried to use my ice power against her, it was worthless.

We all thought that these cages were covered by that liquid that makes it impossible for us to use our powers, but no. We all still continued to be transformed into our heroic egos, but what was happening to us is that these cages were making us tired.

It was like every minute we spent inside, they took some energy from us. She smiled when she saw us this way and went to get a chair, sitting across from us.

- Finally I will fulfill the dreams of all metahumans in the world. I will have the pleasure of ending the three of you once and for all!

- But after all, what did we do to make you want to kill us? I don't even remember fighting with you before.

- And you didn't! However, you hurt the people I love.

- Oh? And who exactly? - I asked, more and more confused.

"Does the name Norvock tell you anything?" She asked, looking specifically at me.

"Are you Norvock's daughter?" Asked Barry, confused.

"Does he have a daughter?" Asked Cisco, even more confused.

- Yes and because of you he is dead! And I never had the opportunity to get to know him properly! - she exclaimed, clenching her fists. - You left me without a father, so it is appropriate that your children stay suffer the same fate!

- It's crazy! She is as crazy as her father was ...

Cisco and Barry looked at me as if I was not helping our situation, but honestly the truths have to be told. The minutes passed and we felt more and more tired.

Suddenly we heard the entrance door opening and she went quickly to the counter, where she had two computers. I assumed she was accessing the surveillance cameras to see who the intruders were.

"It just got more interesting," she said, smiling.
