I was slightly sweaty and warm when I walked into the small cafe. Barry sat in a table on the far right. I was only a couple minutes late but I still felt bad for being late. I walked briskly to his table and sit.
"Johanna! You look some what hurried, did you just leave a gym?" Barry smiles. I looked at him and smiled. If only I could tell him but Harrison made me promise him not to tell a soul.
"I came from a job interview." I smile. In a way it was kinda like that, I had to show Harrison I could defend myself from anything, from micro bees to gunfire. After all of that I was so worn out I had to drive myself home with loud music blaring.
"What kind of job?" Barry smiles.
"I can't tell you, it's a secret." I wink and feel dread fill my chest. Harrison said Barry would be hurt if he knew, and although Barry and I haven't been close for awhile.
"You're no fun. Well I hope you get the job." He smiles as the waiter comes up to the table. We order quickly and soon silence surrounds us.
"How's Iris and Joe?" I ask. He straightens up in his seat.
"They're good." He responds bluntly. I sit back and realize he cant ask me the same question. The waiter comes with drinks to our table. I sip my soda quietly as both of us avoid eye contact with one another. I finally look up at Barry who is staring at a picture on the wall. It is of a beach with large dark bluish green waves, a storm looks like it is going to erupt in the background. The dark clouds remind me of smoke, thick black smoke. I look back to Barry and notice how much older and strained he looks. I want to ask him about it but then we would have to discuss about the weather after that.
"Is your dad doing well?" I ask breaking the silence. Barry looks back at me and then relaxes a bit.
"Well he is still in prison but he's alright I suppose." He does a half smile. I nod and smile sympathetically.
"When we first met, I wanted to become a lawyer and after a while I wanted to reopen your dads's case. I guess maybe I should have, I know your dad didn't kill your mom and I know that whoever did will have to face me." I smile.
"I wouldn't have minded if you opened my dad's case. I mean, you of all people understand what I went through." His eyes smile, but he does not.
The food comes and soon we are eating in silence. I look at the fries on my plate and frown at them. I've never been a big eater in potatoes but fries were okay sometimes. I look at Barry eating his food and observed how fast he ate it. Suddenly as I watch, his phone starts to ring. He looks up at me and I nod. He takes his phone out and answers.
"Cisco, what is it?" He asks quickly into the phone. "I'll be there soon." He ends the call. "I've got to go." He frowns.
"Work?" I wink.
"Something like that." He smiles, lays money on the table, and jogs out the door. I stand up and grab my purse. I leave a tip at the table and leave the diner. I sigh as I step outside as I notice how cold it is....too cold. My phone begins to buzz in my pocket. I take it out and answer.
"You need to get back here right away." Harrison's voice comes through the speaker.
"Why?" I ask but before he can answer an icy cold breeze hits me and I stop moving for a second. "Never mind, I know why." I say as I run to my car. I open my door and begin to drive through the streets. I can't get very far before I see the Flash and the source of the coldness running through the streets. I get out of my car and begin to run. Although I've only trained for half a day I may be able to help. I run through the back alleyways in order to get to the warehouse on the eastern side of town. Luckily I am not too far from it. I run and leap over the fence surrounding the old warehouse. I run inside and type in the pass code I learned just hours before. Harrison sits in his chair and when I come in looks at me with urgency.
"Seems Captain Cold decided to make a visit." He says as I walk up to the computer base he works at. It isn't anything nice but it works wonders.
"Should I go out there and help?" I ask. Harrison turns back to the screens for a brief moment.
"No, it would seem that Captain Cold is retreating, but he will be back, and when that happens..."
"I get to go out there?" I ask. He thinks for a moment and then lets out a breath. I feel like a child asking to go to the ice cream store with my friends. He takes off his glasses and rubs his eyes.
"You may, but more training, and you'll need a suit of armor of some sort." He puts his glasses on and looks at me."You have agility and brain power on your side." He smiles and looks away. "What was that alias name you had for those years in Starling City?" He asks.
I think about it for a moment before I answer.
"Kyle, they called me Selina Kyle."
