Christmas time in Central City, and this year Peter and Caitlin finally get to spend the holidays as a couple instead of doing their best to hide their feelings for each other.

As for Star labs, HR has decorated the entire place.

"Holy winter wonderland." Peter states as he and May walk in and sees it all as Caitlin just chuckled at her boyfriends response.

"Took the words right out of my mouth." Cisco informs him.

"I'm gonna make an assumption that Earth-19's Christmas is just like ours." May guesses.

"Some traditions are multi-versal, ms. P." HR tells her while drinking eggnog.

"So, any more information on Savitar?" Barry asks.

"Nope, all we know is that he's a speed god and you're the only one who can see him." Caitlin says.

"All right, well, Alchemy is Savitar's high priest and he gets his power from the stone that he uses to create metas, so I was thinking if we can find out what that thing is, maybe we can figure out how to stop him." Barry says.

"I want to see if I can dig something up." Cisco offers.

"I'd love to help, but I need to greet someone." Peter apologizes before walking.

"Who are you meeting?" Iris asks.

"My new protege." Peter answers while going to greet Miles.

"Hey, I got a dissertation here from Oxford University, about a myth of an ancient Hindu weapon called the Brahmastra." Cisco says as Peter walks off. "Legendary artifact with incredible powers, capable of-wait for it.."

"Creating metas." Barry guesses.

"Creating metahumans." Cisco confirms.

"Guys, that looks just like Alchemy's stone." Caitlin tells them.

"More importantly...look who wrote this paper." Cisco says while showing Julian Albert, the same Julian from work.

-

While Barry went to have a talk with Julian, Peter's been having a bit of difficulty training Miles. He knows how to use his powers, but controlling them is a different story.

Because as of this moment, Miles can't get off of the ceiling since his fingers are stuck.

"Okay, look, Miles, relax your fingers. Let go." Peter offers as advice. "What do you do to relax?" He asks.

"Relax..." Miles echoes and thinks before starting to hum a song he knows. As he sings, his fingers come unstuck and he falls onto the ground, sending some of Cisco's tools flying around the room.

"Oh, boy. I've got my work cut out for me." Peter says to himself while looking to where he is. "Hey, Miles. Where'd you go?" He asks seeing he's disappeared.

"I'm right here." Miles says and Peter can't see him anywhere. "I'm right in front of you." He states and Peter sees thin air.

"Can Spider-Man turn invisible?" Miles asks and Peter reaches his hand out to find him.

"Not from my experience." Peter says and pokes Miles.

"Hey, that's my face!" Miles informs him.

"This is incredible. It's like some sorta fight or flight thing." Peter says to Miles while feeling the thin air that is Miles.

"What's that?" Miles asks reappearing when a breach opens and he disappears as Barry and Jay Garret appear and he disappears again.

"So...Savitar." Jay says and Peter sees Barry went to get information.

"Miles, let's call it quits for today, shall we?" Peter asks and Miles becomes visable again to make his leave.

"Apparently, you've grown powerful enough to challenge him." Jay tells Barry.

"Who is he?" Barry asks him.

"Don't know, never seen him. You're the first speedster I know of who has. But every story I ever heard about Savitar is basically the same. Savitar was the first man ever granted speed. And over time, he became the god of motion, the fastest of us all. Before Savitar graces an Earth with his presence...he sends a predecessor to prepare for his arrival." Jay explains.

"Alchemy." Peter and Barry say at the same time.

"Dare I ask what he's preparing for?" Peter asks the old flash.

"A battle with you, Barry." Jay tells him. "You're threatening his power."

"How do you know all of this?" Barry wonders.

"Speedforce myths, Lee gods, rumors. If Savitar's come for you once, he'll be back." Jay warns them.

"Then I'll be ready." Barry replies.

"We'll be ready." Jay tells him.

-

The three of them return to the cortex where Barry decides to read up everything he can about Savitar using his speed reading.

"I've read every Hindu textbook there is on mythology and spirits and demigods and nothing. No mention about Savitar, not once." Barry tells them.

"In my experience, the answers usually tend to come in time." Jay tells him.

"Yeah, I can't just sit back and wait for Savitar or Alchemy to attack." Barry tells him.

"You can't worry about what may or may not lie ahead." Jay tells him. "Besides...it's Christmas. A time to be with the ones you care about." He reminds him.

"Yeah, speaking of which, I need to go check on Fox and my present to my protege." Peter tells them and excuses himself.

-

Peter left the two speedsters and meets up with Fox who has a suitcase sitting near the computer monitors.

"Is that what I hope it is?" Peter asks Fox.

"Of you mean, is that the new design Spider-Man suit for the kid? Than, yes." Fox assures him while he's working on some upgrades on Drone-y.

Peter opens the suitcase and the suit is on a small display case showing its functions and status.

The outfit is like Peter's, but completely backwards in design. Instead of red and black outlines, it's completely black with red outlines.

Peter chuckles while thinking of how Miles is gonna react to this when he looks up and suddenly sees his deceased uncle Ben.

He lets out a gasp before stepping back and pushes a table while shaking his head and sees he vanished.

"Something wrong?" Fox asks.

"No, everything's fine. The suit's great as always." Peter promises him and takes the suitcase to get it wrapped up for Miles. While also trying to figure out what the heck he just saw.

-

He makes it back to Star labs and places the suitcase down and turns around to once again see Ben standing there. But this time, Peter reacts and shoots a web at his uncle but it didn't even phase him.

"Are you okay, Peter?" Caitlin's voice calls and Peter turns to see her in the doorway.

Peter just looks to her and back to where his uncle was standing and sees he just webbed the computer.

"I...I thought I saw my uncle." Peter trying to explain to her.

"Your uncle Ben?" Caitlin asks, confused as she approaches him and puts a comforting arm on her boyfriend.

"I saw him at the Spider-Cave, now here. I don't know why." Peter tells her while rubbing his eyes in confusion and tiredness.

"Maybe you just miss him?" Caitlin suggests.

Peter chuckles as missing him is an understatement to how he feels.

"You know, the first year I went to live with him after my parents died, I felt nothing. It was my first Christmas since their deaths and I felt empty without them. Ben saw that, so he took the entire day off of work. We walked around the city, played in the snow. It was just the two of us against the world. We laughed, we played and then we went to the nearest fast food restaurant and ate as much as we could. I didn't feel as empty or alone after that day." Peter says, sharing his best memory with his uncle to her.

"The last Christmas before my dad died, it snowed and snowed. He and I just sat inside, wahcting old movies while the whole world turned white. It was magical." Caitlin replies, sharing her best memory.

"God, tell me we aren't going to become the Grinch or Scrooge of Christmas." Peter begs and Caitlin ends up laughing at him before pecking his cheek.

Their moment gets interrupted by Barry who comes speeding in.

"Julian lied about the stone. I think he found it back on that archeological dig." Barry tells them.

"Think he might be working with Alchemy?" Cisco asks.

"He's not answering my calls." Joe says as HR and Wally return from training.

HR offfered to help Wally out with his training with everyone focusing on Savitar.

"I think Julian is connected to Alchemy." Barry says when Cisco's tracker for the stone goes off.

"We got a hit. There's energy coming from the top of the Schults building." Cisco says.

"We ready?" Barry asks his partners.

"I'm ready for payback for what that nut job did to me and Miles." Peter says referring to him getting thrown into the wall by Alchemy and turning Miles into a mutant.

"I'm coming, too." Wally says. "Come on, I'm ready." He says as Barry and Joe disagree with him.

"Wally, this is a live or die mission if Savitar shows up. You're good for a rookie, but not good enough for Savitar." Peter tells him. "Don't start fights you don't think you can win."

With that, Barry grabs Peter and they all speed off.

-

At the waterfront, Alchemy is using the stone on a building.

"With energy from this stone, and this building as a refractor, I shall restore the powers of all the metas from Flashpoint. They will become the servants of Savitar." Alchemy says when the three heroes turn up.

"It's over, Alchemy." Barry says and all of the followers run when Barry and Jay turn to see Savitar has appeared and Peter doesn't see anything.

"Please tell me you're seeing him." Barry asks Jay as Savitar growls like an animal.

"Oh, I see him." Jay promises.

"We have to take him together." Barry tells Jay.

"You two handle whatever you see, I'll get the stone." Peter tells them the plan and Peter watches as the two speedsters are grabbed and vanish.

Knowing he can't keep up or help them, he turns his attention to Alchemy.

Peter sees he's still focused on the building and the stone that this is gonna be seriously easy. He just activates his taser webs and shoots Alchemy in the back.

Alchemy screams out in the pain as he drops the stone and Peter webs it up completely and picks up the webbed stone.

Peter then takes off his mask to see the last person he ever expected.

Julian Albert is Alchemy.

-

Jay and Barry were getting thrown around the city by Savitar as the two of them were no match for the god.

"This is not your fight, Garrick." Savitar says and is getting ready to end him.

Back at the waterfront, Peter places the webbed stone in the box and closes it up.

Back with the speedsters, as soon as Peter did that, Savitar vanished in front of them.

"Where'd he go?" Barry asks while looking around.

-

They brought the stone and Julian to the labs and Barry waits for him to wake up while Peter and Cisco are working on the stone.

"What do you think about what Julian was saying?" Barry asks them after his talk with Julian.

"I know that every bad guy we've ever had has pretended to be our friend, while really being an evil, murderous bastard." Caitlin reminds him.

"That seems to be a pattern with us." Peter realizes. "But whatever lie he's cooking, even my senses don't know what to think. It's like my sixth sense is...confused." He explains while trying to find out how that could be possible.

"Has that ever happened before?" Cisco asks.

"Only when Barry went back in time and my senses had to figure out why he was different." Peter says and wonders why they're acting up now.

"Well, what do we think about this box?" Barry asks looking to the box holding the stone.

"It's creepy." Cisco states. "Like Indiana Jones melt your face creepy."

"Have you guys figured out anything about it yet?" Barry asks.

"It's nothing." Fox says as he gets the results from their latest test from the stone. Peter called him in since he was alone at the cave all day. "I have ran tests on it that I could possibly imagine. MRI, x-ray, mass spectrometer, photon shifter. None of them are getting anything from the box. Like the box doesn't even exist."

"Let's see if I can run anything you haven't." Peter offers and takes the box away while Barry goes to talk to Julian again.

-

Peter goes to Cisco's lab and starts to see if his senses can get a reading on the stone, but even his senses don't know what the stone or box is.

"You keep working that brain like this, I'll start smelling bacon." The all too familiar voice of Peter's uncle calls and he quickly turns around to see nobody's there.

"You're loosing it, Peter." He informs himself while running a hand through his face. "You've gotta get more sleep. You've been wearing yourself thin recently." He states with all of the nights at Parker Industries, training Miles and finding the time to spend with Caitlin, while keeping an eye on Frankie through Jessica until he can find her a good home. Adding Spider-Man on top of all of that, sleep isn't exactly a familiar term with him.

He then turns back to the stone and sees Ben standing there and he jumps with a shriek exiting him.

"Will you stop that?!" Peter questions the Ben ghost, getting sick of this. "Whatever you are, this is not cool, okay?" He states. "Oh, wait, I know exactly what you are. You're...a side effect to my powers and Flashpoint, I'm seeing you from another reality."

"Not quite, kid." Ben tells him with a smile on his face.

"Okay, I'm definitely loosing it. Caitlin!" Peter calls for his girlfriend, knowing he needs her medical expertise for whatever this is.

"If you leave, I'm gonna have to disappear as well." Ben tells him.

"Good. That's exactly what I want!" Peter states as he turns back to his dead uncle. "I don't need you here, messing with my mind...my emotions."

"Kid, don't you see this is a second chance." Ben informs him while placing a hand on the box. "The stone. It's the key to everything. It can turn humans into powerful individuals. It can transform one thing to another, almost like metamorphosis. Same goes for spirits." He expains to Peter.

"No, no, no." Peter says while looking away and pulling on his own hair with both of his hands, starting to loose it and block him out,

"Peter, we can be a family again. Me, you, and May. How is she anyway?" Ben asks him.

Peter looks to his uncle with tears forming as he doesn't know what to do.

Can it be possible?

Can he finally make up for his biggest mistake?

Peter doesn't even know what to think as he looks to his uncle.

"Just open the box. And remember, Peter...with great power, comes great responsibility." Ben says and pushes the box towards Peter.

Peter just wants to make him disappear, meaning if he can bring him back, he will.

He opens the box and his senses finally start kicking in as they process the stone and start alerting Peter something else is in the room.

Unknowingly, when Peter opened that box, he released Savitar.

-

Barry gets an alert while talking to Julian and answers it.

"It's Cisco's workshop. Barry, Peter opened the box." Caitlin tells him.

Barry speeds off and finds Peter in the workshop with the stone and Savitar in the room.

"Peter?" Barry asks.

"Bow to your god." Savitar tells Barry as Peter is trying to find Savitar.

Savitar speeds Barry to the speed labs and starts beating him up.

Wally sees that Spider-Man is out of commission for now and speeds off to help Barry.

Caitlin goes off to try to get Peter out of his gaze.

"Peter? Peter, you have to close the box!" Caitlin tells him.

Peter, on the other hand, looks and sees it's working and is bringing Ben back. At least to his mind.

"It's Ben...I can save him." Peter tells her as he's getting controlled by the stone.

"Peter, that's not Ben, it's Savitar. Please, he's using your biggest regret against you!" Caitlin explains to him.

"You'v become a great man, Peter." Ben whispers to Peter.

"Peter, we're running out of time. Please, just hand me the box." Caitlin asks of him.

"I can't loose him again." Peter tells her while protecting the box.

"Peter, your uncle is gone. I'm sorry, but there wasn't anything you could do then, and there's nothing you can do now. But Barry and Wally need you right now, they need you to close that box." Caitlin says to him.

"If you do it, we can't be together again." Ben tells Peter.

"Peter, listen to me!" Caitlin begs of him.

Peter looks between the two of them and knows what to do, but it's like his mind doesn't want to do what's right.

"Don't do it." Ben begs of Peter.

"It's like you said. Great power...great responsibility." Peter tells Ben before closing the box and places it down as Ben vanishes.

Caitlin then takes Peter's hand and pulls him into a hug knowing he's hurt.

-

Later, they bring Barry and Wally up after the beating Savitar gave them.

"Are you sure you're okay, man?" Barry asks Peter.

"Yeah, it's just...I feel like my mind was used against me. Which it actually was." Peter replies to him while rubbing his head. "I don't exactly know what happened to me."

"So now that the box is closed, Savitar's gone for good?" Joe asks.

"I don't know, but we need to find out." Barry tells him. "Cisco, if we can't use this box, Julian, he may be our only link to Savitar now, right?" He asks.

"I think we can use both of them." Cisco tells him. "If Caitlin's right and this thing messes with brainwaves, then I have a plan." He says and they all leave to see what his plan is.

-

They make it to the speed lab and bring Julian with them and place him in a device Cisco put together.

"So is someone gonna tell me what I'm doing here?" Julian asks.

"Julian, today when I was fighting Savitar, he and Alchemy, they had the same voice." Barry explains to him. "We don't think there is an Alchemy. We believe it's just Savitar speaking through you."

"Savitar clearly possesses someone who rallies worshippers." Caitlin says.

"But he's like a poltergeist, he needs a medium to manifest himself." Cisco adds.

"Right, what does that mean?" Julian keeps asking.

"We think we figured out a way to sync your brain to the stone. And it'll allow us to speak to Savitar." Peter explains.

"If you want to try and be free of this, you need to trust us." Barry says to Julian.

"I've never liked you, Allen. Having a little séance with your friends now is not gonna help change that fact. You do know that. I'll try it." Julian says and Cisco starts activating the device and Julian goes unconscious in seconds.

"How long will this take to know if it works?" May asks

"Not really sure, it may take a minute for his brain-" Caitlin was saying when Julian cries out and looks at them all.

"Hello, Barry." The voice of Savitar says through Julian. "It's been a while."

"Savitar?" Barry asks.

"None of you are on your knees. It's a smart move to bow before a deity." Savitar tells them

"You're no god." Barry informs him.

"To be a god, you just has to make people believe you are." Savitar replies.

"None of us believe in you, psycho." Peter informs the god.

"You should, Peter. I hold the power of life and death over all of you." Savitar says and Peter is shocked he knows his identity.

"How do you know so much about us?" Caitlin asks.

"I know you, Caitlin. Cisco, Joe, Wally, Miles Morales. The fake Wells. I know your fears and I know your weaknesses. I know you better than you know yourselves. I know your destinies. One shall betray you. One shall abandon the rest. One shall fall. One will suffer a fate far worse than death. This is the knowledge I have for you. About your everlasting damnation." Savitar tells them all.

"Who are you?" Barry asks him.

"I am the future, Flash." Savitar tells him.

"What do you want with us?" Peter asks him.

"Everything! Everything the Flash took from me, I want it back. And I'm gonna take it back. Then, I will destroy you." Savitar promises.

"Then why haven't you already?" Barry asks him. "If you're all powerful, why don't you just go ahead and kill us now, be done with it? Because you can't."

"You did this to me." Savitar informs him. "You trapped me in eternity. Your future self-you did this to me, Barry. And now the age of my revenge rises. My freedom is at hand. You will feel my wrath. The wrath of Savitar!" He promises and Peter shuts down the machine.

"Did it work?" Julian asks them.

-

The team later returns to the cortex and they're all shaken by what they just heard.

"That was so scary." HR tells them. "I mean, that was-was it not truly frightening, with the voice agh the prophesies and everything? That was a scare-a-thon, wasn't it?"

"Do you think the thing that he said about one of us betraying everyone and one of us dying could really be true?" Caitlin asks Peter.

"Well, If it was Future Barry that locked him up in eternity, then he must know what's going to happen to us." Peter guesses.

"He doesn't. He's never getting out from wherever he's trapped." Barry promises.

"And how are we supposed to do that?" Joe asks.

"The stone." Jay says as he gets back on his feet and joins them. "The stone has been the key to everything. If we get rid of the stone, Savitar will be gone for good."

"It's impossible to destroy." Julian warns them. "It's been around forever, there's a reason for that."

"Why don't we bury it again, put it back in the ground where you found it?" Wally wonders.

"Jumanji." Cisco states.

"Stargate." Peter adds.

"The Mummy." May says, seeing their pattern.

"Someone would just find it and we'd be right back to where we started." Joe says, seeing what they're saying.

"We need to make that box disappear forever. And there's only one thing we can do with it. Throw it into the Speedforce." Jay tells them. "The Speedforce is eternity itself, an endless void of time and energy."

"It'd be like trying to find it after throwing it into space." Barry states.

"Except that Stone is loaded with gravimetric force." Fox warns him. "I don't think you would be able to run fast enough to get a portal to the Speedforce and carry the stone at the same time."

"He can with my help." Jay tells him. "Run as fast as we can. You trail behind me, siphon off some of my speed, combine it with your own, and when you have enough, throw that thing deep into the Speedforce."

"And that will work?" Peter asks feeling something is wrong with this plan.

"We need to find out." Barry says.

-

The two Flash's go into the pipeline and the two speedsters open a portal and Barry throws the stone inside.

The portal closes and shoots a beam at Barry and he finds himself in the streets of Central City, Inferno.

"In other legal news, the highly publicized trial of Jared Morillo, AKA, Plunder, comes to a close. Morillo was found guilty of grand theft and aggravated assault after he was caught by the Flash and Spider-Man ribbing the Central City museum earlier this year." Barry sees a news post on the bus stop say which confuses him.

"Don't!" Barry heard himself say and turns to see himself, Iris and Savitar.

"Now, finally, I am free of you." Savitar says.

"Barry, I love you." Iris tells him.

"No, don't say that, all right? I'm begging you." Barry tells Savitar.

"You loose, Barry." Savitar says and pulls out a sphere and Barry goes running but misses as Savitar kills her and vanishes.

Barry watches in shock when a portal opens and Jay pulls him back into the past.

-

Barry looks and sees he's back in Star labs.

"Jay, what was that? Where the hell was I?" Barry asks.

"The Future." Jay tells him.

"I've never been to the future. I've traveled to the past, but I always came to the present. I saw myself. And Iris...and Savitar, he killed her. That's five months from now." Barry replies. "Is that going to happen?"

"You shouldn't have seen that. What you saw was a possible possibility of the future. What may be, or may not." Jay explains.

"Then I can go back, see how it happened." Barry states.

"You can't go back there. Not a giant, not ever." Jay tells him.

"Then I'll figure out how it happened, how it became like that."

"Barry! This is why speedsters don't travel to the future. Nobody should know this much about their own future. Just as their are infinite Earths in the multiverse, there are infinite possibilities to the future. It's always bending, always changing. Every decision you make creates another alternative. The future isn't written yet, and it might not even turn out to be what you saw. You need to focus on the here and now. You have to live your life." Jay says and needs to return to his own world now.

-

Now with that threat over, the team has gone to Joe's house to celebrate Christmas together. And this time, Caitlin began playing the Spider-Man Christmas album that she bought last year.

"You love to hate me, you know that?" Peter asks his girlfriend listening to Spidey Bells.

"You're the one who sold them." Caitlin reminds him while sitting on his lap.

"Listen, what happened back in the labs, thanks." Peter says, regarding the whole Ben thing.

"You would have done the same for me. In fact, you have." Caitlin says.

Outside, Cisco notices it's raining. "Rain on Christmas. That's neither holly nor jolly." He states.

With Joe and Cecile, they seemed to have gotten together.

Meanwhile, HR is walking around kinda drunk out of his mind.

That's when a knock comes from the door and they look to see Carolers.

Caitlin looks to the window and gets an idea and moves to the window while removing the power dampening cuffs.

"Hey. What you thinking?" Peter asks curiously.

"We may not be able to have a perfect Christmas, but we can have a white one." Caitlin says and starts freezing the rain enough to make it start snowing.

Peter just smiles at her as Caitlin places her head on his shoulders as this is their first Christmas as boyfriend and girlfriend.

And they're going to relish it as much as they can.

"You gave Miles his present, right?" Caitlin interrupts their peaceful moment.

"Don't worry, he's in for a surprise." Peter assures her.

"How's Frankie doing with your friend?" She wonders.

"Jessica says she's doing well. She's getting a hang on her powers fast." Peter answers.

But there's also one thought that came through Peter's mind regarding Frankie.

After everything is cooled down, he wants to adopt Frankie.

-

At the morales household, Miles was just getting ready for bed when he looks and sees a package-present waiting for him on his bed.

This is for you, Ultimate Spider-Man

Welcome to the team

-Merry Christmas, S-M

The note says and Miles takes the top off and looks inside to see its a brand new, fully equipped, Ultimate Spider-Man suit just for him.

"Oh, yeah." Miles comments looking over the suit and design while loving it.
