5 Years Ago, Devoe Household
Marlize walked into her home and paused in surprise as Clifford was energetically writing on a white board as he was surrounded by other with equations, "I've solved them." Clifford smiled at his wife
"Solved what?" Marlize asked walking forward
Riemann's hypothesis, Hilbert's 15th problem, standard conjectures on algebraic cycles, and the list goes on." Clifford smiled
"Clifford, this-"
"This is incredible! Ask me anything!" Clifford interrupted excitedly
"Um, who was Jack the Ripper?" Marlize asked watching as Clifford closed his eyes before they snapped out a second later
"The prevailing theory is there was a London barber by the name Aaron Kosminski who committed the crimes. He also suffered schizophrenic and delusional tendencies. But it was his nurse at the Colney Hatch Asylum! Catharine Jewell!" Clifford said smiling, "It's like every little bit of knowledge now resides inside my brain. I know every answer to every question ever asked."
"You're incredible!" Marlize smiled
"We're incredible! You made all of this possible! We now finally have the means to bring to the world the-" Clifford stopped suddenly and seemed to be struggling
"Clifford, are you okay?" Marlize asked before her husband collapsed, "Oh my God! Clifford! Clifford! Clifford!"
Later, Central City Hospital
Clifford sat with Marilze in the doctors office with a cane and a frown on his face, "Imagine your body as a river. There's a dam blocking your legs." the doctor explained
"My gastrocnemius muscles are degenerating, aren't they?" Clifford said causing the doctor to blink in surprise
"Well, yes. The symptoms are similar to-" the doctor began
"Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis." Clifford interrupted
"But your muscles are decaying faster and more rapidly than typical ALS. I believe this is something else." the doctor said
"Is that your medical diagnosis? That I have a case of something else?" Clifford asked patronizingly
"It's just we've never seen a case like oh-" Clifford snatched the folder from the doctor, "Yours before."
"An increase in complex fasciculation potential explains axonal membrane hyperexcitability. But it doesn't...Of course. When gamma wave activity exceeds 50 hertz, my acetylcholine receptors draw away from my nerve receptors instead of toward them." Clifford realized
"What did you say you're a professor of?" the doctor asked
"History." Clifford said looking up to the ceiling
"What's his prognosis?" Marlize asked
"Life expectancy for typical ALS is about two to five years." the doctor said
"In this chronodispersion, it would be half that. Complete paralysis will come first." Clifford said before he tossed the folder aeay in frustration
"Excuse us, please." Marlize said before the doctor left, "This doesn't make sense."
"My mind is drawing energy from my body, like a parasite feeding on an ailing host. I'm so close to everything I've ever dreamed of, only for it to be ripped away by this body." Clifford hissed in frustration as Marlize frowned before she shook her head
"No, no, no. We can stop this, Clifford. I'll never give up." Marlize said tears trailing down her cheeks
"2,600 individuals developed the meta-gene. They use it to rob jewelry stores and summon tornadoes. I use mine to save humanity, and I'm condemned? Dying wasn't part of our plan." Clifford said looking away from his wife, "I'd like a moment alone, please."
Marlize nodded and left as she wiped her face
Clifford sighed raggedly and placed a hand to his forehead, "Didn't anyone ever tell you that it was a give and take?" Wells asked causing Clifford to look up
"Harrison Wells. What brings you here?" Clifford asked watching as Wells rolled into the office and locked the door
"I'm a big fan of your work."
"Yes you mentioned that a few days ago at your epic failure of a presentation."
"What makes you think it went wrong?" Wells asked smirking
"You blew a hole into the city and now forever confined to that chair." Clifford said before to his surprise Wells stood up and walked to him
"The particle accelerator functioned just as I wanted it to. My name is Eobard Thawne and I'm going to help you out."
"Help me do what?' Clifford asked with narrowed eyes
"Save humanity." Thawne smirked
"What makes you thin-" Clifford paused as Wells held up a hand and an holographic news article appeared
Clifford Devoe aka The Thinker Failed Enlightenment
"You fail to beat The Flash. I want to help you change that outcome." Eobard Thawne said
"How?" Clifford asked watching as red lightning raced across Thawne's eyes
"First you're going to help me with my backup plan." Thawne smirked
Present Day
Naruto smiled in content as he with Caitlin, Iris, Felicity, Linda, and Diana after they returned home from their bachelorette festivities,
Kissing Caitlin and the others before he closed his eyes to catch some sleep,
Young Dash had got out of his crib and crawled to the living room and sat watching TV with the remote, Dash watched an old school gangster movie, when the sound of something being knocked over outside got his attention,
The screen door leading to the backyard, Dash could see a Racoon in the trash, looking up to the tv Dash saw the robber with a black mask amd frowmed glaring at the raccoon who bore a similar pattern around it's eyes
The raccoon was minding its business when it heard something and looked to see Dash crawl into the kitchen glaring at it, the Racoon growled at Dash who snarled crawling forward to the door and standing up with his face pressed against it,
The raccoon seemed to laugh and turned back to its chicken leg before it blinked as Dash vibrated through the glass and stormed over and snatched the chicken from it, the raccoon blinked as Dash tossed the chicken leg into the trash can
The racoon looked at the trash can and growled turning to Dash who was waiting with a slap, that caused the racoon to shriek in anger before it tackled Dash rolling around with Dash on top before the baby bit its leg before the two rolled into a wall with Dash upside down kicking the racoon in the face repeatedly
Naruto and the other adults were cuddled up asleep as the commotion continued,
Dash and the Racoon rolled down to the yard and got up so that they were standing across from each other sizing one another up, before Dash suddenly blinked and sneezed sharp darts of ice at the racoon who screeched and ducked to the ground as Dash laughed and began to forward as the racoon with a shriek jumped at him but Dash' entire body turned into ice cause the racoon to yelp in pain with its head collided with Dash
The baby laughed as his body returned to normal and he got onto the racoon and began to fight with it
The adults all groaned and looked up hearing the commotion before Naruto of bed and saw the racoom on top of Dash about to bite him but Dash slapped it away and got onto it and began to slam its head into the ground
"What is it?" Iris asked
"Dash is fighting a raccoon." Naruto said blinking owlishly
"What?" Caitlin asked as the girls all walked over and saw the baby toss the raccoon back before he yelled as he got onto it but in a flash, Naruto was there lifting his son laughing as the raccoon jumped back shrieking at Naruto and Dash only for Dash to sneeze and huge gust of wind that sent the raccoon flying into the distance
Naruto and the girls looked at the baby in shock as Dash laughed excitedly, "That's my boy." he said turning to see the girls looking at him in disbelief, "What?"
Morning
Amunet Black gave her signature creepy smile as she was underneath her club, looking at the chained up man she had beaten as she used his psycho-active tears that would make her rich, richer than her ex Goldface and with the money came the power so that she could move forward in her plans to be the one in charge of all illegal metahuman activity in the United States, but first she had to bring her icy weapon to heel
Suddenly lightning filled her base, Amunet looked around as her men were knocked out and tied up, quickly she tried to use her powers on the bucket of alnico alloy she had when a shiver went through her body as the temperature abruptly dropped while a hand was placed on her shoulder
Looking back, Amunet saw her 'weapon' Frost who smirked at her, "Hey."
Eyes widening, Amunet was frozen solid but still conscious as her eyes moved around watching as Flash freed her captive who rebuffed help and ran off, before he looked at her and walked up, as CCPD lead by Linda Park stormed inside while Naruto phased his hands into the ice and place the metahuman dampening cuffs on Amunet's wrist before Caitlin melted the ice and Linda took over
"Amunet Black you are under arrest." Linda began to mirandize Amunet as Frost and Flash fist bumped
Later, Uzumaki Labs
Naruto, Linda and Caitlin hugging walked into the cortex, and saw Iris, Felicity and Cisco inside, "Great job you guys." Iris smiled as she and Caitlin high fived followed by her and Linda
"Yeah, it was easier than I thought it would be. But Amunet is on her way to Iron Heights, and all of her weapons will be processed and shipped here for study." Naruto smiled before suddenly they heard cheering and turned around as Harry entered
"Harry, you seem to be in a good mood." Caitlin stated
"I am, my friends amd I have solved our mystery." Harry smiled
"Your what?" Naruto asked as everyone looked confused
"My friends." Harry repeated
"Is he saying friends'?" Naruto asked everyone
"I think he's being sarcastic." Caitlin replied as Cisco tapped Naruto's arm
"No, no, no. This is delirium. He's cracked from being awake all night. Hey, Harry, all of your friends are in this room." Cisco said
"I have other friends. You asked me to make new friends. I made new friends. It was a task. I complete tasks." Harry replied causing everyone to smile
"That's so great. I can't wait to meet them." Iris said
"Harry, you listened to me. I'm so proud of you." Cisco smiled walking forward
"Okay, there's no pride-" Harry began but noticed that Linda and Felicity were giving him a thumbs up, "Put that down. Look, my friends are smart. They've helped us, figure out who Devoe is."
"Who is he?" Naruto asked
"Gideon. If you would please." Harry said and a image of an middle aged man appeared
"Clifford Devoe." Naruto said his eyes wide causing everyone to look at him, "I remember him now."
"Really how?" Linda asked
"Well I never met him personally. His wife Marlize was my professor at Central City University, I spent a year in the Peace Core with her."
"Another one?" Cisco asked
"Not like that. " Naruto said shaking his head, "Marlize was scary smart, she has two doctorates in Mechanical Engineering and Advanced Robotics and a PhD in Inflationary Theory and Engineering. She believes technological advancements are the key to saving the world."
"Did you know that before or after you slept with her?" Caitlin asked with her arms crossed
"Before." Naruto shrugged, "If I remember correctly she and Clifford had a falling out when she found a journal of his detailing DeVoe's belief of technology killing humanity and a solution that required rebooting the masses' brains."
"Rebooting our brains?" Felicity asked
"Gideon, the night of the Particle Accelerator the footage I wanted you to go through, do you see Devoe on it anywhere?" Naruto asked before the cortex darkened and the footage of that faithful night began to play without any audio
The team saw Devoe and Marlize with a weird cap that Devoe put on when the accelerator was turned on before he struck by lightning,
"Gideon rewind." Harry said as everyone watched as the footage reversed, "Pause."
Harry walked to the weird cap, "This cap may be the key to how he got his abitiies. If we can recreate it and study it, we can figure out to reverse its effects."
"Guy keeps a low profile. No social media, no criminal record." Iris read Harry's report
"And we know where he's hiding. 43 Hibbard Lane."
"Let's go get him." Iris said
"No." Naruto shook his head, causing everyone to look at him, "We have no proof that he's done anything wrong. While knowing who he is this early is a nice change of pace we can not be sloppy taking him down. We need proof first.'
"How do we do that?'
"I'm just spitballing but his brain supercharged by dark matter could've enhanced his intelligence to insane levels."
"If his brain was supercharged than his body could be failing." Caitlin said getting a nod
"Chances are this guy has been watching us. So we return the favor." Naruto said with a shrug before a call came through on the phone
"Hello?" Felicity asked answering the call
"Overwatch, is Flash there?" Lyla asked
"Lyla? What's going on?" Naruto asked
"Just over twelve hours ago, Nigerian Prime Minister Samuel Abidoyo was taken hostage while attending an international technology summit in Lagos. We believe this to be the work of ATLAS, a leading anti-Western terrorist organization founded by former Chechen separatists. The leader sent out a video to all governments. Sending it to you now."
"Why isn't Argus or the military doing anything?" Naruto asked
"Because, the leader is a metahuman and you and your team are the best at stopping and capturing metas. The world leaders are leaving this up to you and your team." Lyla said as Felicity received the video
"Ok, Lyla we'll be in touch." Naruto frowned hanging up
"So let's see this thing." Helen said causing Felicity to nod and play the video on all the monitors
Devoe in his hoverchair appeared with a man bound beside him as Samuroids were herding people together, "Leaders of the world, humanity has hidden behind the protection of technology. Technology is a cancer. I am here to liberate you from this cancer. The world must be reset to it's natural state. I am The Thinker, and I will be your saviour." Devoe said before a tentacle with a helmet shot from the chair and attached to the mans head before a light ran through the tentacle from Devoe to the man and after a moment Devoe slumped while the tentacle was removed from the man
"Prepare yourself for the enlightenment." Devoe said in his new body before the video was cut
Naruto frowned and turned on his heel, "Nate?"
"Get ready, we're heading to Lagos." Naruto said walking out getting nods from Cisco, and Caitlin while Helen looked confused and followed him out
"Wait." Helen said causing Naruto to pause and look at her, "We? As in all of us?"
"Yes, you have military training and were a cop, pretty sure you can handle yourself." Naruto said
"But what if my powers don't-"
"The reason Cisco and I drafted thrust training simulations was to discern your limitations and capabilities. Believe in yourself." Naruto said placing a hand on Helen's shoulder
Helen nodded before Naruto left as he exited the building he was surprised to find Singh pulling up along with another detective, "Nathan."
"Hey David, how's the job?" Naruto asked
"Same as always, but I wish I was here under better circumstances." Singh said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow
"Huh?'
"We got a anonymous call about the sound of a scuffle from your old apartment and a unit found this man with stab wounds." Singh handed Naruto a tablet with the picture of Devoe's corpse, "Know him?"
"Of him yes." Naruto said causing Singh to raise an eyebrow, "I did a few months in the Peace Core with his ex awhile back. Haven't seen him or her in years."
"When the last time you been to your apartment?"
"Not since I took over this place and moved to the outskirts of the city." Naruto said as Singh nodded
"Do you know anyone that would want to frame you for murder?" Singh asked
Naruto shook his head, "I haven't got any threatening calls, letters, or emails but I do have a way to help you with your case."
"Do tell." Singh said
"There are security cameras lining the walls of the place, Ove been meaning to take them out but haven't had the time." Naruto said grabbing his phone and logging into his iCloud before he went back a day of footage and showed it to Singh as it began to play
Naruto and Singh watched as a white flash appeared and Devoe in his hoverchair appeared with his old body, that he proceeded to take out of the chair and stab with a knife before he pulled out a phone and called 911 with an anonymous tip about a disturbance
"You know this guy?" Singh asked with a frown watching as the man pressed a button on the chair and warped away
"No." Naruto said with a sigh,
"Do you think your work with the Flash is putting you in danger?" Singh asked worriedly
"My work as a CSI put me in just as much danger as any other officer, I can help Flash keep tbe city safe, maybe this guy sees me as a threat and wants to eliminate me so that he can take on Team Flash all on his own, but he will fail." Naruto said causing Singh to nod
Meanwhile, Lagos, Nigeria
Devoe smirked in his new body his plan needed to be adjusted with the unpredictability of the Flash so he had to improvise and rush, as before he was going to hunt the Bus Metas one by one but since Flash is getting to them quicker than expected he needed to be more proactive and bring them to him, which is exactly what he had his Samuroids do
The unconscious body of Neil Borman was being dragged away, while the other Samuroids began to dispose of the corpses of Izzy Bowin who had the power to produce powerful sound waves, Mina Chaytan who had the power to animate effigies, the elusive Ramsey Deacon aka Kilg%re who had been in the process of being transferred to Iron Heights, Edward Gauss a hippie with the power to travel through pocket dimensions that were easily trackable when he stepped out of them, Matthew Kim who had the ability to swap people's DNA. Janet Petty a petty thief who had control of gravity, Sylbert Rundine who had the ability to enlarge and shrink objects inanimate and organic,
"Everything is almost complete, now all I need is dark matter." Devoe said walking over to the corpse of his wife Marlize, "Sorry my love but Thawne was right, you'd eventually become a liability."
Devoe kissed Marlize forehead and sighed, "Toss her with the others."
The Samuroid grabbed the corpse and walked over to the incinerator before tossing her in and turning it on,
Devoe walked to the next room where the Prime Minister and the room of technologists were being watched by the Samuroid's as they created his satellites
Devoe suddenly closed his eyes and held his forehead, "Team Flash is here." he said pointing to a samuroid he immediately made his demand, "Get them on the bullet train."
Everyone was forced to leave as Devoe shrunk the satellites,
Meanwhile
Helen aka Elastigirl was on her new motorcycle that Naruto amd Cisco designed for her as she used it to add speed onto her enlarged fist that destroyed the Samuroids
Frost was surfing her ice ramp and freezing the Samuroids as she turned to mist when one sent a bolt of energy from the sword at her before she reformed behind it and slammed an ice pike into its back
Vibe was demolishing the Samuroids with vibrational blast and breeches to volcanoes on other uninhabited worlds
Flash was bisecting the robots and dismantling them as he ran, "I got movement on the bullet train, its the Prime Minister and Technologist."
"Go after them." Flash said as the bullet train left with Elastigirl in pursuit as the original members of Team Flash approached the building and kicked on the door to reveal Devoe waiting on them
"Team Flash, we finally meet." Devoe smirked
"Yeah, and its to bad because your going down." Vibe said firing off a vibrational blast but cracks in the air appeared before Devoe absorbing the blast as more cracks appeared beside Cisco who had time to look over before his own blast hit him in the face sending him flying through a wall,
Flash darted forward but a green outline took over his body and he stumbled, "Your currently the gravimetric weight of a cement truck, Flash." Devoe smirked and was about to co tinue but was shocked as Flash easily stood up
"That's nothing." Flash smirked before he rushed forward but a sound wave was shot from Devoe's palm into his chest sending him tumbling back
"Melt." Devoe said when Frost reformed behind him with a fist made of ice that she was about to punch him with but Flash snapped into her place and kicked Devoe in the ribs
Devoe spat blood as he clutched his ribs while Cisco stomped on the ground causing a vibrational burst to travel from him to Devoe through the ground sending Devoe into the air for Frost to send him flying into the wall
Meanwhile
Elastigirl sped after the train going tthrough traffic the wrong way till she slammed on the brake and the bike skidded into the back of a car on the opposite road, "Felicity!" she yelled
"Yeah!"
"Can you remotely shut down the train?" Elastigirl asked
"I tried but I'm locked out of the system I have to literally be on the train to shut it down!" Felicity said
Elastigirl noticed that the intersection was busy so she pressed the big red button on her handlebar causing the bike to split in half before she stretched her upper body forward and lifted up with it before she snapped the bottom half into it allowing her to go over four lanes of traffic
"I have to get on it." Elastigirl said
"You have less than 2 minutes. There's a shortcut cut through the front end up ahead." Felicity said
Elastigirl turned a corner and road through a small tunnel coming out in midair at an abandoned building. Slamming through the glass, Elastigirl quickly pressed the button again and stretched herself out to go out the other side of the building onto the roof to the building across the way and slid under a bridge as she road from rooftop to rooftop trying to keep up till she saw construction equipment and used a small ramp to land on a steel beam, performing a stoppie as she stretched herself again and rotated her body before returning to normal amd landing atop of a crane
Keeping the bike steady Elastigirl drove off the crane and stood on the seat as the boke landed awkwardly on the edge of a building and drove across it till she jumped to a Billboard and landed atop of the bullet train
The bike separated and the bottom half slammed into the window causing the hostages to scream in fear and surprise
Elastigirl put the bike back together and pressed the blue button as she kicked it up into the sky causing a breech to open amd swallow the bike
Racing across the roof on foot, Elastigirl landed between the carts and flatened herself out before she crawled forward slithering like a snake before she stretched her arm and tangled the Samuroids before lifting them up and slamming their heads into the ceiling before she slingshot herself forward and kicked the first one in the chest sending it through the window as she spun in midair and drilled a hole through the second one and rolling to her knees to stretch her arm into the thirds sword that she used it bring hersled forward and wrap herself around before driving the sword into the head of the samuroid
Panting as the adrenaline began wear off, Elastigirl looked around, "Are you all okay?" she asked getting nods from the former hostages
With Flash
Devoe groaned as he tumbled across the ground while Flash, Frost, and Vibe boxed him in, "Surrender." Flash said
"I will not!" Devoe glared before he waved a hand and a telepathic blast sent the three heroes flying back and Devoe used that opportunity to get away in a pocket dimension
"Guys, we have a problem." Elastigirl said after she slingshot herself across the city to her teammates
"Yeah, Devoe got away." Flash replied
"No, he had forced the Technologist to build 3 Satellites and put someone into a containment cell who they say was like a walking nuke." Elastigirl said
"We need to find him, quickly." Frost said
"Um, guys." Felicity called
"Yeah, he's in Thawne's time vault!" Iris yelled before the com went dead
Immediately Cisco opened a breech and the four raced through
Uzumaki Labs Time Vault
Devoe smirked as he loaded his own dark matter and the shrunken Neil Borman into the panel while also stealing the Flash' satellite that would be ready to connect with his own soon as they launched opening a pocket dimension he escaped just as Team Flash entered
"He escaped I don't understand how can he use his powers?' Cisco asked
Naruto walked to a wall and pressed a button bringing up the power dampening tech he made and grunted, "He destroyed my device." Naruto said as he tried to stop whatever Devoe did but couldn't as the system shorted out
Team Flash walked outside to see the lights going out around the city including the cars as an purple aurora was in the nights sky, "Guys?!" Iris yelled as she and Cecile approached
"Hey, what's going on?"
"Devoe stole our satellite and used it to set up his plan." Naruto said
"It's going crazy, thank God we were near by, the hospital is another 3 miles away."
"Hospital?" Cisco asked before Cecile groaned
"She started having contractions and we were heading for the hospital." Iris said
"I'll get the power back up." Naruto said speeding off as Caitlin, Felicity, and Helen helped Iris get Cecile into the building
Naruto and Cisco got the power back on before Naruto headed for the exit, "Where are you going?" Felicity asked
"Find Devoe, according to what Helen said the hostages witnessed Devoe is a parasite at the moment. His host body dies, he dies." Naruto said
"Nate, are you sure that's our only option?" Linda asked
"It is. If he isn't then the meta abilities he's accumulated will continue to control the satellites. We have until the permeation grid hits 100%." Harry said looking to the grid that read 24.8%
"I got to find him." Naruto said before he raced away
Flash tore through the city and up to a rooftop as he saw Devoe in his hoverchair overlooking the city with a smile
Narrowing his eyes, Naruto caught a pigeon flying above Devoe and with a flex of his chakra he substituted himself with it appearing in midair behind Devoe and grabbed onto the back of the chair and swung himself around to knee the former professor in the jaw
Devoe grunted in pain as he was knocked over the chair but grabbed onto the armrest and slammed his hand into the batter before Flash stood up on the chair and glared down at him
"Thawne was right about you, Mr. Allen." Devoe said causing Naruto's eyes to widen before he grabbed Devoe by the collar and lifted him up
"How do you know Thawne?"
"He helped me adjust my plan, but turns out it wasn't enough. You Mr. Allen are a dangerous anomaly." Devoe laughed, "But I win."
"What did you do for Thawne?" Naruto glared
"I simply made sure that Edward Thawne's bloodline continued to thrive." Devoe smirked causing Naruto's eyes to widen before Devoe screamed a sonic wave into his face causing Naruto to lean back and release him which had Devoe fall to his death
Naruto grunted in annoyance before he had the chair fly to Uzumaki Labs, "Guys Devoe just fell to his death." he said walking into the cortex
"Ok." Harry said before he and Cisco began to work together to override the command which allowed them to shut off the satellites causing the grid to go from 30.3% to 0.0%
Naruto smiled before everyone hugged and walked to the med bay where Cecile just announced that her water broke, walking up and grabbing Cecile's hand, he looked to Caitlin,
"You have done this before?" Naruto asked
"A few times," Caitlin smiled getting nods from Cecile and Naruto, "In med school."
"Med-"
"Med school?' Cecile asked
"Yeah." Caitlin nodded
"Okay Med school, okay. We got this right?" Cecile asked
"Yeah, just breath out." Caitlin instructed going to get her supplies
Cecile looked to Naruto, "Just breath out." she said before they exhaled sharply
"Power is back on everywhere. With no more dark matter present in the city." Felicity smiled
"For now." Devoe said causing everyone to look to the chair that was glowing purple as a hologram of Devoe was seen, "Another use of Mr. Deacon's powers. Technological Reincarnation. I've thought of everything including this moment."
Naruto zipped behind the chair and ripped the battery out before speeding around and dismantling it, before he stepped back clapping his hands
"That ends that.' Helen said
"Not yet." Cisco said on the monitor, "Sally's in a decayinh orbit."
The Uzumaki Labs satellite was falling apart as it descended
"Wait so disabling him triggered a deads man switch?" Helen asked
"Devoe must've increased its mass by a thousand-fold."
"Nate, the impact of something that heavy and that fast- How much time do we have?" Iris asked
"Three minutes if we're lucky." Felicity said
"So how do we stop something that is going to send us back to the stone age?" Helen asked
"Together." Naruto said looking around, "Cisco, Linda and Helen you guys clear the impact zone. I'll destroy the satellite."
Naruto sped off with Linda behind him as Cisco opened a breach and jumped through with Helen behind him
Downtown
The citizens were frantically screaming as species of flaming debris were raining down on the street, Flash sped a couple out of a truck just as it was hit with debris
Lady Flash cleared the street as fast as she could while using photon blast to blast some debris, Vibe created breaches to catch debris and deposit them into the parking lot of Uzumaki Labs, while Elastigirl used her stretching abilities to drag people out of the way of falling debris
Flash looked up to see the satellite heading for a building, "Gate of Opening-Release." Naruto thought before he raced back and up a building and down racing down the road to a building that would take him directly to the Satellite while releasing the first 3 of the right gates while numerous shockwaves destroyed windows and cracked the road
Caitlin looked up to Cecile who clutched Iris hand
"Okay, now it's time for you to push. On three. One, two, three."
Cecile groaned as she pushed
"You're doing great." Caitlin smiled
Flash was overtaken by a yellow cloak of energy
"You're doing great. Now, I need one big push, okay? One, two, three." Caitlin said before Cecile gave a big push and Caitlin smiled, "Here she comes."
Flash raced up the building with a first cocked back roaring as he let it fly
Before the first can make contact with the satellite time froze and reversed all the way to when Flash first saw the satellite
"Gate of Opening-Release." Flash said before he raced off unaware of the purple and yellow streak of lightning following after him as he ran the same route, and called upon his chakra cloak again and punched the satellite along with his pursuer
Everyone watched as the satellite exploded looking worried
Flash fell into a building rolling to his feet and speeding back to the street canceling his cloak and looking around as the people began to cheer, while he looked around and saw Vibe, Elastigirl, and Lady Flash before he waved them over and they shared a group hug
"Did you see them?" Flash asked
"Who?"
"The other speedster?" Flash asked causing the three to look at each other
Later
Team Flash reentered the cortex, just in time to hear the cries of a newborn baby, Naruto canceled his suit and walked over to see Caitlin smiling as she watched Iris, and Cecile gush over the baby girl
2 Days Later
Naruto walked over to Cisco who was sipping champagne, "You okay?" he asked
"I'm fine. Harry went back to his Earth to make up with Jesse, new baby in our lives and I'm single again." Cisco smiled
"Wait, what happened to Gypsy?" Naruto asked
"Told her the truth. I don't want a girlfriend that I can't see everyday. I want someone I can grow old with and have a family with, she doesn't want that. So, "
"When did this happen?" Naruto asked
"Yesterday." Cisco said
"It's her lose." Naruto replied bringing Cisco in for a hug, "There's a girl on this Earth that will love you for who you are and will want to have a little of mini Cisco's with."
Cisco scoffed before everyone looked up when the door opened and Cecile followed by Iris walked in with the baby
Naruto got up and walked over and looked at the baby that stared down the adults that crowded around her, "Cecile, she's beautiful." he said
"Thank you." Cecile smiled
"This calls for a toast."
"On it." Whitney said flashing into the room with a tray of champagne
Cecile was excited as she hugged Whitney, "Hey, you didn't think I'd miss my new baby sister's first party, right?" Whitney asked laughing as she hugged Cecile
Everyone with a new glass smiled, "All right, to the newest member of Team Flash."
"Joanna West." Cecile smiled
"Welcome to the family." Naruto smiled
"Cheers." everyone said
Moments Later
Naruto was sitting away watching his family interact before Iris walked over, "Hi, handsome."
"Hi."
"You okay?" Iris asked
"Yeah, just taking it all in, this is really all that matters." Naruto smiled watching as Dash smiled at baby Joanna, while Felicity, Helen, and Linda took pictures
"We're next, you know?" Iris asked
"Wait, you want to have- What do you mean? You want to have a baby now? What do you mean? Right now?" Naruto asked
'Nate." Iris said
"What?" Naruto asked
"Relax."
"What do you mean? I'm fine."
"Are you?" Iris asked getting a nod, "I just meant someday. Not anytime in the near future."
"Right." Naruto nodded causing Iris to smile amd shake her head
"Oh my God. Let me just get you a refill so you can relax."
"That's nice. Thanks." Naruto said before Iris got up and there was a knock at the door confused Naruto got up and walked over
"Hi." a familiar young woman said
"Hey." Naruto said before the woman walked in
"We need to talk." she said
"What?" Naruto asked as the woman looked around
"Wow, this house is bitchin'."
"Huh?" Cisco asked
"Wait a minute, weren't you the server at Barry's and Iris wedding on there Earth? And where did you get this jacket?"
"Uh From her." The lady said looking over to Iris who looked confused
"Um No, mine mine is one of a kind." Iris replied
"So was this, uh, when you let me borrow it." the lady said
Naruto raised an eyebrow, "Um, Who are you?"
"I'm your daughter, Nora. From the future. And I think I made a big, big, mistake." Nora said causing Naruto to look shocked along with everyone else
Finished
