Chapter 27

Spoiler Alert that I need to rant about right now. I fear Supergirl is going down the same path as Arrow did last season, since they actually had J'onn erase Alex's memories of Kara being Supergirl. The only I'm still willing to watch the show now is to see how long it takes for them to undo that. Sorry, but I needed to let that out. Hopefully Supergirl can get back on track before it gets too bad.

"So, what required you to fly out to Star City all of a sudden?" Barry asked as Kara rejoined him and Cisco.

"John just got superpowers." Kara said.

"Wait, John Diggle. As in the man who pukes every time Barry runs him at super speed?" Cisco asked.

"The very same." Kara said as she explained everything to them.

"Well, John always did look good in green. You sure Oliver will be okay with this?" Barry asked.

"Unlike last time, John's leaving to pursue a new destiny and he doesn't want to get in the way of that. Besides, last time I talked to Oliver before now, he said that he thought that part of the reason John left Team Arrow in the first place is because he was getting jealous of always being in Oliver's shadow. Now he's not." Kara said and Barry and Cisco nodded as they approached the Time Vault, since Thawne had left.

"Are the girls on their way?" Kara asked.

"We just got here, but what exactly is it we need to see?" Iris asked as she and Caitlin approached them.

"I was running another test on a 3D model I constructed of Star Labs to see if I could figure out what caused the accelerator to malfunction and while I didn't find out what caused it, I did find something else out." Cisco said.

"What?" Caitlin asked.

"This." Cisco said as he opened the Time Vault.

"A secret room." Iris said as they all cautiously entered.

"Yeah, Kara and I checked it out as soon as Cisco told us about it." Barry said as the lights turned on.

"Look." Iris said and they looked ahead to see the Reverse Flash suit standing on a mannequin in some kind of pod.

"The man in yellow's suit." Barry said.

"I'm honestly thinking we should start calling him the Reverse Flash." Cisco said and Barry nodded.

"Catchy." Kara said.

"Why would the Reverse Flash's suit be here?" Iris asked as Barry moved over the to the plinth and 'accidentally' activated Gideon, which showed the hologram of article saying the Flash disappeared, but now it was no longer just a newspaper article, now this article was from Catco magazine.

"Uh guys, you might want to see this." Barry said as the others joined him.

"Flash missing. Vanishes in crisis." Kara read.

"After an epic street battle with the Reverse-Flash, "our city's very own Scarlet Speedster disappeared in an explosion of light." Barry read aloud, despite already knowing this.

"Barry, look at the date." Caitlin pointed out.

"April 25th, 2024." Barry said.

"Wait, this article is from the future?" Cisco asked.

"This means that the Reverse Flash whoever he is, is also from the future." Barry said.

"That's trippy." Cisco said.

"Hey check out the byline." Kara said.

"By Iris West." Caitlin said, looking at Iris.

"Guess I become a reporter after all." Iris said.

"At Catco. We do have some reporter openings. I could talk to Ms. Grant, see if she'd be willing to give you a shot." Kara said and Iris nodded at her gratefully as suddenly, the article shut down and a new voice was heard.

"Catco. Formerly known as Catco Worldwide Media, the foundation and Catco Enterprise." Gideon said as she appeared.

"Hello Barry Allen." Gideon said.

"Whoa." Caitlin said.

"You know who I am?" Barry asked.

"I know who all of you are. Barry Allen, also known as the Flash, Kara Danvers also known as Supergirl, Iris West, also known as Phoenix, Cisco Ramon, also known as Vibe and Caitlin Snow." Gideon said, before Barry interrupted her, since Caitlin needed to discover her powers herself.

"What are you?" Iris asked.

"I am Gideon. An interactive artificial intelligence." Gideon said.

"AI, cool." Cisco said, despite already knowing exactly what Gideon was and what she could do.

"Who does that suit in here belong to?" Barry asked.

"Professor Eobard Thawne." Gideon said.

"Who?" Caitlin asked.

"Is this Thawne person operating under a different name right now?" Barry asked.

"Yes, I believe in this point in time, you know him as Dr. Harrison Wells." Gideon said, shocking them all.

"What?" Iris asked.

"No, that be true." Caitlin said, denying it.

"Caitlin, I don't want to believe it either, but I think she is telling the truth." Cisco said, much to Caitlin's surprise.

"Gideon, why is Wells here?" Barry asked.

"To kill you." Gideon said.

"Why did he kill Nora Allen?" Barry asked.

"Because he was angry." Gideon said.

"About what?" Barry asked.

"That you escaped." Gideon said.

"Guys, as much as I wish we could keep questioning her, we need to move before Wells or Thawne discovers we're on to him." Cisco said and Barry nodded.

"Gideon, will you not tell Wells we were here?" Barry asked and Gideon nodded.

"I am programmed to do whatever you and Ms. Danvers instruct me to, as the two of you helped create me." Gideon said as she shut down.

"Let's go." Kara said as she and Barry sped everyone out of the time vault, while trying to absorb what they'd just learned.
