Legacies

"It's Nora. Our daughter." Iris states to Barry angry to what he just did.

"She lied to us, Iris. Since the first day she got here, about Thawne! She knows what he did to me. To my mother." Barry tells her. "We can't believe a word she says."

"We don't know that." Iris tried defending.

"Yes, we do!" Barry argues back.

"We don't even know why she's working with him." Iris says.

"The question is why she's working with him." Harry says. "Maybe I should talk to her, shed some light."

"I think you shed enough light," Iris states and looks to him in anger.

"Whoa. You're mad at me?" Harry asks.

"How long has it been since you suspected her?" Joe asks.

Peter now decided to step in and defend Harry since he had a role in this. "Ever since we met her."

"You too?" Barry asks Peter.

"Spidey sense, man." Peter says and taps his head. "First time I ignored them, Eddie died, Ronnie died, and a singularly almosted destroyed the city. I wasn't going to ignore it again. I don't care who they are, if they go off, they can't be trusted."

"You've both been following this trail all this time and didn't think to tell us until now?" Iris asks.

"I'm sorry, Iris, do you not know what it means to be an scientist? Oh, right, you don't...because you're not a scientist." Peter snaps at her. "You experiment, learn all the facts before publishing your discovery and come to a conclusion. Also, we did try telling you and you basically said back off. So, yeah, we couldn't tell you."

"Not to mention that half of the things that happened is absolutely her fault for messing with the timeline." Harry states.

"She did admit that herself." Miles agrees.

"If she didn't mess with the timeline, none of this would be happening." Frankie also agrees.

"Cecile has been around Nora for months, she never felt anything off before." Joe says.

"Reverse Flash must've taught her a thing. He was a master of deception, Peter's senses never caught up to him until it was too late." Cisco agreed.

"There's got to be some way to figure it out." Caitlin says.

"There is." Ralph says and picks up Nora's journal. "This must have everything from before she arrived."

"Read it from the beginning." Barry tells him.

2049 Central City

Nora was running late to a crime scene and found a chemical transport was attacked, making it two labs and two transports.

The attacker stole Benzene Methanol and Halothane.

Nora discovered there was a Affinity 4,000 security camera that could hold some clues, but she believes it was a speedster.

She goes back to CCPD and meets with her friend, Lia, who also doesn't believe her.

"You know I'm equally a fan of our fleet footed super friends." Lia tells Nora. "I mean, honestly, if I could have ever met Jesse Quick, it's like, hello, new best friend. No offense."

"Some taken." Nora replies.

"Okay, but there hasn't been a speedster in Central City since that Crisis piece that your mom wrote about decades ago. Flash, Kid Flash, Jay Garrick, that worked purple speedster that showed up. They're all gone. I mean, the only superheroes around nowadays is...Metalla, Ultimate Spider-Man, and the Winter-Spider."

-

2019

Peter spits out its drink after almost choking on it to that and everyone looks to the two of them.

"Did she just say...?" Cisco asks.

"Winter-Spider." Harry confirms and looks to the two of them and Caitlin holding her stomach. "You're pregnant?"

"You two are what?" Barry asks them.

"We were gonna tell you guys." Peter says. "We just discovered it ourselves."

"Keep reading." Joe says.

-

2049

"They're all gone." Lia finishes. "So what you're suggesting, it's highly unlikely."

"Then we need to start believing in the highly unlikely." Nora says.

"Alternatively, you could...dial back your obsessiveness." Lia replies.

"I'm not obsessive." Nora defends.

Lia drags a board with all the sightings of both Cicada and the Winter-Spider. "You keep investigating the supernatural."

"You call that obsessive, I call that a hobby." Nora defends.

"Right, your everyday psycho murderer and classic trying to unmask a local hero every day hobby." Lia says sarcastically. "I mean, I kinda wanna know who the Winter-Spider is also. I mean, he leave notes to the people he stops that end with your friendly neighborhood Winter-Spider. I wonder how he looks under that mask." She was saying while staring off into the sky.

"Why are you so obsessed with the Winter-Spider?" Nora wonders.

"He wears a blue and black skintight costume, quips while fighting crime, has more muscle than a seashore. I just wanna know what he looks like under that suit." Lia states.

"Please stop talking." Nora begs her friend.

-

2019

"Does this conversation feel familiar to anyone else?" Barry asks.

-

2049

"I wish CCPD would spring for these Affinity cameras. I mean, trillion FPS, captures light in motion." Lia says when they watch the footage and see white lightning enter the truck and stealing chemicals.

-

They visit Ollins Laboratories for help by a friend of theirs.

"Appreciate the help, Dr. Bonwit." Lia tells him. "Especially at this hour."

"Not a problem. Ollins never lets me leave this place anyway." Bonwit says. "It took me a bit of time to see it, but the chemicals can only work together when they're built on a structure. Like an extracellular matrix."

"But there are thousands of extracellular matrices." Nora says.

"So until we know all the chemicals, we won't know the end results." Lia sees.

"Sorry I can't help more." Bonwit says and they leave.

"Now what?" Lia asks.

"We can't wait for another lab to get hit." Nora says when a flash of lightning passes them.

They run back in and see Bonwit is on the floor and someone flashes in and is wearing an all white and gold suit.

"Oh my god!" Nora says.

"I am a god. The god of speed." The speedster says when suddenly everyone can see their breaths.

The window smashes open as someone rolls inside, lands in front of Nora and Lia before sending a blast of ice mist at the speedster, sending him flying.

The figure is wearing an all dark blue suit similar to Spider-Man's suits, a snowflake symbol embedded to the back of his suit while the front has a spider symbol and a webbing pattern throughout his suit.

"Winter-Spider?!" Nora and Lia cry.

The masked man turns to face the two. "Go! Get out of here!" He warns them when the speedster charges up a lightning strike and he dodges it, Lia runs while Nora gets hit by the lightning.

Winter-Spider turns and webs the speedster and leaps into the air and does a kick to the face.

"I know what you're after, Godspeed, and you're not getting it." Winter-Spider promises him.

"You couldn't begin to imagine what I have planned." Godspeed tells him.

"You sure? I've got a big imagination. And something tells me you're not using those chemicals to treat lice." Winter-Spider quips.

-

2019

They all look to Peter and Caitlin.

"What?" Peter asks. "I'm proud of him."

"Your son picks up your trait of quipping. God, there's gonna be another one of you." Cisco complains and rubbing his head at the idea of three Spider-Men.

Even Crystal looked to Peter and rolled her eyes.

-

2049

In the end, Godspeed escaped with the chemicals and Winter-Spider couldn't chase him.

"Nora!" Lia yells and runs to her friend. "Help! Please!"

Winter-Spider looks to where Godspeed ran to and runs over to Nora and feels for a pulse, only to get shocked from electricity. He feels a pulse, but also his senses sense something.

"You're like me." Winter-Spider whispers before picking her up.

-

Nora later wakes up and sees she's in the hospital with Poker Face playing and she turns to see Lia there.

"Oh, I knew an oldie would wake you up." Lia cheers. "Okay, don't freak. We're in a hospital. The Winter-Spider dropped us off here. His ice slide was amazing, but terrifying."

"Dr. Bonwit?" Nora asks.

"In the ICU. But he's gonna pull through." Lia promises. "But the speedster did get away with a crazy amount of Carbon Disulfide. Don't worry about that right now. How you feeling?"

"I feel fine, actually." Nora says as she sits up. "My fingers are a little tingly, but other than that, I feel really good."

"The Winter-Spider did say something else before bringing us here." Lia says while she picks something off the table.

"What did he say?" Nora asks.

"He said and I quote, you're like me." Lia says as she sits next to her. "I'm just glad you're okay. Doctor said you hit hit with five billion joules of electricity. Which means...I kinda called your mom. She freaked more than normal."

Nora looks to her upset by that news. "Is she here?"

"She's on her way from Coast City. And she is wearing her aggro pants. She has called me like 47 times."

"You shouldn't have called her. I don't want her to worry." Nora says.

"I did. Which is why she doesn't know about the Winter-Spider saving you since she hates him, or this." Lia says and hands a shard of something. "The paramedics said that you went into cardiac arrest when Winter-Spider dropped us off and they had to use the defib nods to restart your heart, and when they did, they found this. It was buried underneath the scar of your left shoulder."

"Okay. What is it?" Nora asks.

"They say it's a metal scrap from the shelf but I don't know. It looks old and fried." Lia tells Nora. "Okay, now you're okay, can we please talk about the fact that you got struck by lightning from a speedster during a battle with Winter-Spider??" She asks and stands up and squeals.

"So schway, Right?" Nora agrees. "The only thing is no one's gonna believe us."

"We both saw it. They're gonna have to." Lia says and tries putting down the shrapnel when Nora accidentally speeds off and speeds out of the hospital and into a truck.

-

Nora is using her new speed in the labs of the CCPD to get used to it.

"This is what the Winter-Spider meant by you're like him!" Lia says.

"It must be. All of my nerves are tingling and my synapses must be going crazy because my reaction times are way off the charts." Nora says. "What am I gonna do about my mom? She freaks out any time someone even says the word meta."

"That's understandable, her non-meta husband was killed because of metas." Lia says.

"Yeah, but writing about the Flash, the metahuman, made her career." Nora says.

"So we can't tell her?" Lia guesses.

"We can't tell anybody. Not until we figure out how I got these powers." Nora states. "And I don't think it's a coincidence that this happened after our run in with...what did Winter-Spider call him?"

"I think he said Godspeed." Lia says.

Their alerts go off saying a bank heist is in progress.

"Huh." Nora says.

"No, no, you can't do that. That is a bad idea. Metalla, Ultimate Spider-Man or Winter-Spider will be there." Lia tells her.

"I'm just gonna do a little run-by." Nora promises.

"You're a CSI. Not a superhero." Lia says.

"Our jobs are the same as the cops." Nora says. "We get the bad guys." She then speeds off to the heist.

-

At the heist, the guard already took care of it when Nora accidentally pushes him around and they start getting away.

The other cops try to stop but Nora accidentally distracts them as they try to get away.

As they're running, the sidewalk freezes over and webs reach down to stop them from falling.

Winter-Spider leaps down and faces them. "I'd hold onto those webs if I were you. You ever slip and fall while walking on ice? Don't worry, the police will be here any second to arrest you." He promises and even notices Nora before leaving.

-

"Today didn't go so great." Lia says as Nora drops on a chair.

"Both robbers almost got away of it weren't for the Winter-Spider because of me." Nora says.

"Cut yourself a slice of slack pie." Lia says. "It was your first day, and the Winter-Spider has been doing this for five years."

"But I still feel so bad." Nora says and wraps herself up.

"You're looking at this all wrong." Lia says and gets up. "This was the Femme-Flash's big debut. Naming superheroes is not easy."

"Tell that to my uncle." Someone says and they turn to see the Winter-Spider in the corner of the room.

"How long have you been there?" Lia asks.

"Long enough." Winter-Spider says and approaches them. "Saw your work out there. Gotta say, not the best, but honestly not the worst. You should've seen my uncle when he first started."

"What do you want?" Nora asks.

"To help you." Winter-Spider tells her. "You wanna learn to use your powers to help people. I need a partner to catch up with people like Godspeed."

"Okay. But...who are you?" Nora asks.

"You first." Winter-Spider tells her.

"Nora West-Allen."

Winter-Spider looks shocked and removes his mask.

He has light blue and green mixed eyes, light brown hair with a streak of white across the front of his hair. "Like Barry Allen?"

"You knew my father?" Nora asks.

"No, but my father knew him." Winter-Spider says.

"Okay, but who are you?" Lia asks.

-

Winter-Spider POV;

All righty, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, lets go through this one last time.

My name is Tommy 'Ron' Snow-Parker. And for the last five years, I have been the one and only...Winter-Spider.

My father died saving the world from a crisis a few decades ago, saving me, my mother, and my sisters.

Before he died, me and my sister were born and they discovered that we had powers, my father and mother came to an agreement that they wouldn't take away our powers. But they couldn't have us using powers we didn't understand.

So the agreement was that all their other children would be allowed to choose to be normal, or keep their powers. But for fifteen years, they would be a secret, they used power dampening bracelets, necklaces, even sometimes it was embedded into our clothes.

But when our fifteen birthdays hit, we were told about our father, Spider-Man, and how we have powers like him and our mother and aunt is Crystal Frost.

My sister and I chose to keep her powers and we became the Rogue Squadron. It was a nickname our father gave us when we were young based off of the Star Wars X-Wing team. Me and my sister would always find a way to get into trouble.

Later, she was contacted by the Time Beuru to become an agent to protect the timeline.

Me on the other hand, I decided to keep my powers to keep my city safe.

My mother even had a message from our father he left for me and another for my sister that were for us alone.

"Daredevil, watch your back! These things are everywhere!" Peter yells as he's out of breath and sounds like he's been running a marathon and his face is covered in sweat and blood. "Tommy...my son...I don't know if you will get this message, but I hope you do. If you're watching this, it means I didn't survive the Crisis. And that's okay...because this means you're okay. And this also means like me and your mother. You have powers...and I won't be there to see you use them. When I watched you take your first steps, I was over the moon...I imagined what it would be like to watch you start learning about your skills. Blade, on your left!" He interupts the message to send a warning to a friend when a explosion goes off and sends Peter flying and toppling.

Peter starts gasping and struggles to get up. "This means I'm gonna miss a lot of things. Now listen if you chose to keep your powers, because this is important. You're gonna struggle. I know, because I struggled, even now I'm struggling. This city doesn't like what's different, it took them time to accept me and not a lot of people still don't like me. You will always struggle...it's the choice to keep fighting through the struggle...that makes us who we are. And I know...given time, you will become a better Spider-Man than I could ever be. A hero is someone who never gives up. Now go be a hero, my boy. Always remember...I love you 3000. And may the force be with you. And Caitlin...if you're hearing this...I'm sorry I couldn't be there." He apologizes and the video glitches out as it ends.

The I love you 3000 line was something in our family that caught on. Tina said it one night and it became a constant thing in our home.

May the force be with you is because everyone in my family are Star Wars nerds. We loved it so much our father and uncle Lucius created a life sized B.B.-8 replica that could do everything the droid could do in the movies and even was sentient. The difference being he talked in Morris code.

I was trained by the Devil of Hell's Kitchen in martial arts, my aunt Crystal and uncle Miles in how to use my powers, weapons training by my uncle Wade and a detective mindset from uncle Ralphie and aunt Jessica.

I can't change the past...but I'm done hiding who I am.

So no matter how many times I get hit, I always find a way to get back up.

Because the only thing standing in between my city and chaos is me.

The Winter-Spider.

-

Normal POV

"Your parents are Crystal Frost and Spider-Man?" Lia asks.

"Yeah." Tommy tells them.

"Look, The only way we could catch him before anyone else gets hurt is we start thinking like a villainous speedster." Nora says.

"How do you plan to do that?" Lia asks.

"I'm gonna go see one." Nora says.

-

Iron Heights.

Nora and Tommy go to visit him together.

"Okay, there's a reason nobody talks about this guy." Tommy tells Nora. "My family says that when he dies, he is going to scare the Devil off his throne."

"It's going to be fine." Nora promises as they enter his cell and look to see his cell.

"Eobard Thawne?" Nora calls out and the man approaches reveals Harrison Wells Thawne.

"My name is Nora West Allen, and I'm a CSI tech with the CCPD. I wanted to ask you a few questions." Nora tells him.

Thawne gestured them to come closer and he promised he can't escape even if he wanted and the two do as Tommy trembled.

"What are your questions?" Thawne asks.

"How did you end up in here?" Nora asks.

"Was there nobody at CCPD that could answer that question?" Thawne asks.

"All the files pertaining to the Reverse Flash have been cyber locked. And there's almosg nothing about you in the Spider-Flash museum." Nora says. "Except for the date of your imprisonment."

"That's all there is in the museum? That's interesting." Thawne says. "Then how about you ask the man who was raised with stories about me." He states looking to Tommy who is shocked. "Don't think I don't know who you are. Long sleeved button up shirts, I can even see the ice crystals form at the tip of your fingers, the streak of white in your hair, that wasn't added for fun, that's a birth defect for having a mother with a split personality. I know who you are. You're the son of Parker and Snow. And where there's a spider...there's always a speedster." He says and turns to Nora.

The guard comes in and says their time is up and they leave.

-

Tommy left to find Godspeed on his own while Nora went back to the CCPD to see if Lia discovered anything.

"Thawne figured out I had powers and who Winter-Spider was instantly, but he wouldn't tell us anything." Nora says and sees Lia's face. "What?"

"This metal fragment they found in your shoulder, something was bugging me about it so I did some digging. It turns out it's nitfrom the shelf. It's tech. A chip made by Star labs 25 years ago."

"Like a chip you would use to find a lost animal?" Nora asks and Lia found the truth.

"It's to dampen your speed." Lia says and shows her it was a power dampening chip. "You didn't get your powers when Godspeed hit you with his lightning. You always had them."

"I always had powers?" Nora asks. "But who would put a power dampening..."

-

The two went to Jitters after peices came that it was Iris to put it in her.

"Your Mom lied to you your whole life. I mean, that's next level aggro." Lia says.

"How could she keep something like that from me? I mean, what else has she lied to me about?" Nora asks.

"You're gonna have to ask her." Lia says.

"The idea of that makes my blood boil." Nora states.

"That could be the macchiato. Is possible I made that a triple." Lia jokes.

"At least I have one person in my life I can still trust." Nora says and starts to think of something. "A triple. The chemicals that Godspeed stole. Methanol is unstable, and if you add Carbon disulfide that he stole.."

"Kaboom. I remember that from 9th grade Analytical Chem." Lia says.

"And the only way to combine all those chemicals together is to add some kind of binding property." Nora replies.

"A plus one oxidation state, like dioxygen diflouride." Lia says.

"And somewhere that's able to store that and the only place that can is Stagg Industries."

-

Stagg Industries, they broke in and found the container and it's extremely heavy and can't mobe it when Winter-Spider comes in sliding after being thrown by Godspeed who's next to show up.

"Oh, hey partners." Tommy greets them.

"That's mine!" Godspeed tells them.

"Great, now we're all dead." Tommy complains and gets back up. "You get that out of here, and I'll take care of him."

Nora doesn't listen and speeds in front of Godspeed. "If you want it, you're gonna have to come through me to get it."

"Ah, you're a speedster like me." Godspeed says. "So you need it too. Sorry."

The two speed around the labs and Tommy watches them and sees a pattern.

Nora gets thrown around and beaten and Tommy quickly gets Lia out of the way before freezing the container so Godspeed can't move it.

Godspeed goes to hit him, Tommy dodges it and creates an icicle to stab Godspeed, but he only ended up cutting him.

Tommy looks at the blood and sees it's glowing blue. "That's a new one."

While he was distracted, his senses came on too late as Godspeed sped around and gave him the beating of a lifetime, sending him flying across the room and back before he throws him against a pillar.

Tommy tries to fight back as his powers aren't working as his head is barely focusing and Godspeed starts vibrating his hand.

"No!" Nora yells as Tommy gets stabbed and drops to the ground and he speeds off after destroying the ice protecting the container.

"Oh my god!" Lia yells as Nora gets up and they run over to him.

-

2019

"Oh god." Cisco whispers as they all read the death of the Winter-Spider.

Iris went to te pipeline, against everyone's wishes and let Nora out of her cell.

-

2049

Nora and Lia try to help save Tommy and look at his wound when they see ice cover over the wound.

"What?" Lia asks when Tommy lets out a giant gasp.

"God, I hate when they do that." Tommy complains as he gets up.

"You're alive?!" Nora asks as Tommy gets up.

"Yep. Benefits of having parents who have super healing. One spider healing plus one ice queen healing equals super fast, incredible healing." Tommy says while standing up. "I gotta go check myself out back at my base. I think I know where his next stop is, if I get anything, I'll tell you." He promises and makes his way out.

-

Nora had a talk with Iris about her lying about her powers and lying about everything.

There she learned everyone in her life has known about it because she told them to lie about it.

The CCPD found the identity of Godspeed, August Hart, Bio-hacker. An ex employee of Parker Industries before he was fired for doing tachyon experimnets on patients.

-

Tommy was in the Spider-Cave that was moved over the years and was now underneath his family's home as he looks over the footage of Godspeed.

"Wait, Karen, freeze the image." Tommy asks the computer A.I. as Godspeed got to the point where he's about to kill him. "His lighting is turning blue."

"What are you thinking, Tommy?" Karen asks.

"Pull up everything we have about blue lightning." Tommy asks and Karen shows him Zoom, Trajectory, and Savitar. "Velocity-9. That's it. My mom destroyed any trace of the formula, but that must be what he's crating."

"Or at least his own version of it." Karen says. "Those chemicals could make a version of Velocity-9 that will never run out."

"Velocity-10." Tommy understands. "He just needs a stabilizing agent to finish the job."

"Then you better get to CCU."

-

Tommy gets there and is met by Nora who is also there.

"Howd you get here?" Tommy asks her wen his senses go off and Godspeed is back.

"You don't learn, do you?" Godspeed asks Nora and looks to Tommy. "I thought I killed you."

"If I had a nickel..." Tommy says.

"You could join me you know, Spider." Godspeed offers him. "Think about it. You and me together. Imagine all we could do.

Tommy smirks at what he's trying to do. "Sorry, buddy, but I am a hero. Like my father before me..and I will never turn to the dark side." He says and goes to blast him which he dodged it.

"That's mine!" Godspeed tells Nora as she's holding the stabilizing agent.

"Come and get it." Nora dares and as Godspeed runs at her, Tommy uses a power dampening bracelet and wraps it around his hand, sending him flying into the wall.

Godspeed gets up and reveals he has more V-9 that destroyed the bracelet.

"Time to run." Tommy says and Nora grabs him and starts speeding off.

Tommy starts freezing up the streets as Godspeed keeps slipping on it.

They were able to escape him and they need to come up with another plan.

"Okay, we wed to use those satellites to crate a sonic blast to break the V-9 bonds." Tommy tells Nora.

"Neutralizing The V-9 instantly." Nora agrees and they come up with a plan.

Nora sees Godspeed coming back and she speeds off to get his attention.

Tommy hacked into the satellites and gets ready to sends a blast.

"Almost there." Tommy says as he watches the speedsters run up and at the last second, he sends a sonic blast that sends Godspeed into the building, knocking him unconscious.

"We did it!" Nora cheers.

Nora went back to visit Thawne and he revealed about the vault in Star labs and she goes to visit it and learns about Barry Allen is the Flash.

-

After this information, Barry knew they can't trust Nora and sent her back to the future and told her she can't come back without him knowing.

They have enough problems, they can't handle her and Thawne with Cicada on the loose.
