Destinies Intertwined (Nora Allen x Reverse Flash)

Searching For Answers

It had been a couple weeks since Nora last visited the library to gain more information on speedsters.

It seemed that all she was running into were walls of confusion and agitation.

No one could help her because of what she was intending to do which was stop Godspeed.

She knew it was a horrible idea but something deep inside drove her to the danger as if she was a moth drawn to an irresistible flame.

The burns and heat could result in death but to know she was close to a speedster made her stomach drop in angst.

All her life she had believed in the impossible like her father and now, it was displaying itself in fantastic light.

Nora walked slowly through The Flash Museum, stopping to listen  to the recording of the narrarator lecturing about Zoom and how he was defeated by the Flash.

She looked up only for her eye to be caught by a yellow suit looming over her menacingly.

It was the suit of the Flash's ultimate nemisis, The Reverse Flash aka Eobard Thawne.

Nora gasped slightly as she gazed at the small narrative of his defeat.

Why was it that he was the Flash's greatest enemy but yet very little was written about him?

The young woman grimaced and turned her back on the Reverse Flash display, walking out of the museum steadily.

She knew the one place that held all records of Central City's criminals which happened to be the very place she worked at, CCPD.

The following day she waited until most of her colleagues left the building at the end of the day and pretended that she had to stay later due to some catching up.

The Captain agreed and dismissed herself, leaving Nora to her own devices.

Nora's heart pounded as she began looking through files for Eobard Thawne.

It seemed like hours past with no luck until she stumbled upon an encrypted file that was locked.

It was the very file of Eobard Thawne but it wasn't accessible.

Nora wanted to scream in frustration but instead she kicked the desk angrily.

She was about to give up trying when a sudden idea came to mind.

If she couldn't figure it out herself, then she would get information from the very source she was searching for.

It was decided that she would go to Iron Heights to talk to the Reverse Flash!

That night Nora had a hard time sleeping due to the excitement and nerves of tomorrow's event.

What would it be like to talk to an actual speedster?

Would he talk to her about the Flash if she asked for information or would he deny her?

Would he be as cold as the rumors claimed him to be or would he be helpful?

Nora groaned as she tossed her bed, her mind racing.

It was only when she put on her sleepy time mist sprayer that she was able to finally fall asleep.

Morning came and the young woman dressed professionally and thought up of a case to tell the prison in order for her to gain access.

She grabbed her badge and hurried to her destination.

The closer she got, the more nervous she became.

Her heart was pounding and hands trembling slightly. 

"How can we help you?"

This was it, the moment of truth and Nora couldn't mess it up.

Nora took a deep breath and straightened her back, her expression serious.

"My name is Nora West-Allen and I work for the CCPD. I am here because we believe that Eobard Thawne can help us with a current case pertaining to a speedster on the loose named Godspeed."

Nora flashed the badge and then handed it to the receptionist when asked for it.

The older woman scanned her badge and then walked to the back, getting the warden.

Nora was asked further questions and when satisfied with her responses and paper work, the warden gestured for her to follow.

"I am surprised CCPD has an interest in Thawne. It's been years and he's only ever had one visitor."

The warden smirked and continued leading Nora down a darkened hallway.

"You have 10 minutes max with him and don't worry, he is heavily guarded. His cell is speedster proof."

Nora nodded and smiled weakly at the warden.

The man opened an electronic sliding door and then stepped aside, letting Nora enter first.

"You have a visitor Thawne," snapped the man.

He nodded at Nora and then closed the door behind her, leaving her alone with the speedster.

Nora's stomach was twisting terribly in her stomach and her hands became clammy.

"Eobard Thawne, my name is Nora  West-Allen and I work for the CCPD. If you don't mind I have some questions to ask pertaining to a case we are currently working on."

Nora's voice shook as she spoke to Eobard's back.

His hands were clasped behind him and he stared into a window casting yellow light on him.

There was a long moment of silence when suddenly he turned around slowly, his intense blue eyes catching her soft hesitant brown ones.

"Hello Nora West-Allen. You have questions, ask," he breathed a whisper soft but yet commanding.
