The next time Barry to, he'd processed all of his new memories. The ones that stood out the most were the ones where in this reality, he'd never gone to live with Joe and Iris after his mom died and his father was arrested, but instead, he'd been taken in by Jay, who in this reality was his father's identical twin brother and his wife, Joan Williams, who did not look like his mother in this reality. Barry also found that he wasn't a CSI in this reality, but he was an actual scientist, since apparently in this reality, his new aunt and uncle had believed his story about what happened to his mom and had been helping him try to prove what really happened, causing Barry to actually become a real scientist instead of just a CSI. Since his aunt and uncle were also scientists, Barry had gone to work for them at their solo operation. Another big change to him was that since Barry hadn't grown up in the same house as Iris, but they'd still been best friends, it had been easier for him to work up the courage to ask her out and they'd actually been dating for a year now.

Anyways, this time when he shot up, this time to the sound of Lady Gaga once again, he was not alone as Cisco and Caitlin rushed up to him.

"Who are you people?" Barry asked, even though he already knew, but in this reality, he hadn't met any of them yet.

"I'm Cisco Ramon and this is Caitlin." Cisco said before he was interrupted by Caitlin.

"Doctor Snow, I'm going to need you to urinate into this." Caitlin said as she held out a cop, causing Barry to look at her strangely.

"Not this second." Caitlin added.

"Where am I?" Barry asked.

"You're at Star Labs." CIsco said.

"What the hell happened." Barry asked, even though he knew, but he had to pretend he didn't as Caitlin began prodding him.

"You got struck by lightning dude." Cisco said and Barry had to resist the urge to roll his eyes, but some things never changed.

"Lightning gave me abs." Barry asked as he looked down and saw that once again he'd gained abs from being struck by lightning.

"Your muscles should be atrophied, but instead they appear to be in a state of chronic and unexplainable cellular regeneration." Caitlin said as she continued prodding at him.

"Why do I feel so stiff?" Barry asked.

"You were in a coma." Cisco answered bluntly.

"For how long?" Barry asked, since Novu hadn't told him how early he'd woken up from his coma.

"4 months." Another voice that made Barry want to throw a lightning bolt as Dr. Wells wheeled into the room.

"Welcome back Mr. Allen. We have a lot to discuss." Dr. Wells said, not knowing that Barry already knew exactly who he was.

"It's hard to believe I'm here. I've always wanted to meet you face to face." Barry said, lying through his teeth to Wells, since while yes, he'd always wanted to meet Harrison Wells, the man sitting before was not Wells, he was the man who'd killed his mother.

"Yeah? Well, you certainly went to great length to do it. S.T.A.R. Labs has not been operational since FEMA categorized us as a class 4 hazardous location. many more were injured. Myself amongst them." Wells said.

"Geez. What happened?" Barry asked, even though he knew, he had to keep up appearances.

"Four months ago, the particle accelerator went online, exactly as planned. For forty-five minutes I had achieved my life's dream and then there was an anomaly. The electron volts became immeasurable, the ring under us popped, energy from that detonation was thrown into the sky, - and that, in turn seeded a storm-cloud." Wells said as Barry finished it on instinct.

"That created a lightning bolt that struck me." Barry said and Wells nodded in confirmation.

"That's right. I was recovering myself, when I heard about you. The hospital was undergoing unexplainable power outages every time you were going into cardiac arrest, which was actually a misdiagnosis, because you see, you weren't flat-lining, Barry, your heartbeat was moving too fast for the EKG to register it. Now, I'm not the most popular person in town these days but, your aunt and uncle gave me permission to bring you here, where - we were able to stabilize you." Wells said.

"I need to call them." Barry said.

"I'm not sure that's a good idea." Caitlin said.

"No, since I'm assuming that you're not going to let me leave quite yet, I need to call them and let them know I'm awake." Barry said.

"He's right. We promised we'd call them when he woke up anyways." Wells said and Caitlin nodded as Cisco handed Barry the phone and Barry was relieved that he could remember Jay's number from this reality.

"Hello?" He heard Jay's voice on the other end of the call.

"Hey Jay, it's Barry. I just woke up." Barry said.

"Barry, oh my god it is so good to hear your voice again. Where are you, are you still at Star Labs?" Jay asked.

"Yeah, I am." Barry said.

"Your aunt and I will be there as soon as we can. We can't wait to see you Barry." Jay said.

"I can't wait to see you guys either." Barry said with a smile as he hung up.

"Everything okay?" Cisco asked.

"Yeah, it's just, after being gone for 4 months, it's nice to hear a familiar voice." Barry said and Cisco nodded in understanding as he walked away and Barry smiled as he felt the speed force course through him as he looked over at Thawne, who didn't suspect a thing.

"I'm coming for you. This won't end the way it did last time." Barry said as he now braced himself for another phone call he had to make as he dialed Iris's number.

"Hello?" Iris's voice said on the other end of the call.

"Iris, it's me." Barry said.

"Barry, oh my god, when did you wake up?" he heard her ask.

"A few minutes ago. I just called Jay and realized I still needed to call you. I'm still at Star Labs." Barry said.

"Don't move, I'll be there soon." Iris said as she hung up and Barry smiled at the thought that he and Iris were already together in this new universe and this time, he wouldn't hide the truth of his powers from her. He was going to do things right.
