Chapter Summary: Prompts by WritresBlock039: 1 Got room for a third? How about one where Nora is actually Barry and Sara's daughter, and she's come back from the future to make sure her parents get together? (If you somehow add Kariver to this, too, that would be absolute gold.) 2 OK, I swear this is the last one (until the next one is posted, probably ) All of Team Flash are trying to make sense of Nora's arrival, who is being very shifty, when someone else arrives at the door. Barry is shocked to see Sara barely holding herself together and asking to talk to him - immediately. He's about to say no when he sees how devastated he is and lets her in. When they talk privately, Sara tells Barry what happened in Star City - Oliver's arrest and her dad dying. They bond over what it feels like their last family member dies (Dinah Lance has been extremely scarce), and Sara apologizes to Barry for what she told him during "Invasion!" Barry brushes it off and tells her she understands now, and that's enough. When they go back out, Sara asks who Nora is, and she drops the bomb that she's their daughter. I just seem to like playing with ideas that involve Nora being Barry and Sara's daughter, apparently. – I put those 2 prompts together

.

Barry looked happy at his friends. He felt so relieved about finally defeating DeVoe with the help of his friends. Cisco and Caitlin talked on the couch, while Joe drank beer while talking to Ralph. Iris was working hard on her piece about everything that happened so she wasn't there to celebrate with them. Barry heard a knock on the door and Joe opened. There was a nervous girl standing there, dark blonde hair and hazel worried eyes looking at everyone like she was afraid of something.

- Hello... - She said, waving shyly at them.

- Hey... I remember you... - Ralph said as he got up, looking her a bit closer. – You were on Jitters the other day, weren't you?

- And also at Joe and Cecile's wedding – Barry said as he remembered talking with a girl who looked like her at the day. She was the waitress.

- Yes... I was – she said.

- Who are you? – Joe asked looking cautiously at her.

- I'm from the future... - She said looking at Barry – I'm...

She was about to tell them something more when another person approached them, trying to smile, but with a sad look on her face.

- Hi Allen! – Sara Lance said as she looked at all of them and that strange girl standing at their door.

- Sara! Hi! – Barry said in a surprised tone, welcoming her.

- I was visiting my mom and thought about stopping by...Needed to clear my head and... - She looked at the girl – Who are you?

- She was about to tell us... - Barry said, looking back at the girl.

- Like I was saying, I'm from the future and... - She suddenly seemed more nervous than before. She got in the house before anyone could say anything and Sara followed her.

Sara was ready to fight if that was any kind of threat and she noticed all the others were ready too. Barry closed the door behind him and the girl stopped, turning to face him.

- I'm Dawn Allen, your daughter!

- WHAT? – Joe said, looking shocked at Barry

Barry just looked at the girl, not knowing what to say. He had a daughter? That girl was his daughter from the future? This was insane, he thought. Cisco and Caitlin looked at Barry and the girl with their jaws dropped.

- And... I'm almost afraid to ask this, but... Who's your mom? – Cisco said, his curiosity taking the best of him. Everyone looked at him – What? I know you all want to know as well...

- It's you... - Dawn looked at Sara.

Sara froze for a moment and looked at her, expecting the girl to tell her she was just kidding. It never happened. Sara looked at Barry, starting to freak out. How the hell she had a kid with Barry Allen in the future? She asked herself.

- Sara? Are you ok? – Barry asked, looking worried at her.

- I'm... I... This...

Sara looked like she was going to faint. Caitlin ran to the kitchen to bring her a glass of water. When she came back, Sara stormed out, trying to breathe.

- Sara? – Barry said as he went after Sara.

- I'm... This is impossible! – She said, trying to take deep breaths, standing in his yard. – How did that happen?

- I think you know how... - Barry said blushing hard.

Sara looked at him annoyed and slightly slapped his shoulder.

- I'm sorry; I'm just as surprised as you are.

- I never planned on having kids... We have a kid together... From the future...

- And she's standing on my living room right now – He said as he looked at his front door.

Dawn looked nervously at everyone. She was expecting some reaction like that, but she knew her mom and she was really worried she had screwed the timeline. Barry and Sara came back and she got even more nervous, if it was possible.

- Let's talk about this... - Barry said as he sat on the couch. Sara just kept walking slowly from one side to another, trying to process it all. – How did it happen, this time travel?

- And why? – Sara added, looking worried.

- Mom used to work with Legends and told me all about it. She showed me once the Wave Rider and I got so curious and excited... But she told me it was dangerous to travel through time...

- I'm sure I had a pretty good reason for it!

- So... - Dawn looked apprehensively at Sara – I went there by myself and started looking around... I accidentally went back in time...

- How? Gideon has to set a course for it to happen...

- Things are a bit different in the future... The Wave Rider has a new system, you guys updated it so if Gideon was ever hacked, and it wouldn't cause any trouble like it did before... I tried to get to Star Labs, but ended up crashing there... In the hangar...

- Well, at least it was not in a public place... - Cisco commented and shushed after the look Barry gave him.

- And now I need your help to fix it so I can go back...

- Maybe Legends could help with present Wave Rider? – Caitlin suggested.

- I need to fix the ship and bring it back to the future... - Dawn said – It can complicate things.

- Well, now we are sure she's your daughter... - Cisco said starting to laugh, but stopping right away after Barry gave him another annoyed look. - My bad...Look... - He said as he stared at Dawn – Maybe I can help you, I happen to have fixed ships before... but I will need Felicity's help – He said looking at Barry and Sara. – She helped me before, so...

- Ok. – Barry said and looked at Dawn – You can stay here while we fix things. Just please, wait here because I need to talk to Sara... er... your mom...I... - Barry looked lost and nodded at Sara to follow him.

Barry went to the kitchen and Sara followed him. She looked at him, scratching her head nervously.

- I still can't believe it...

- I know...

- It's so weird to hear her calling me mom...

- Listen... When you arrived, you said you needed to clear your head... Did something happen?

- Oh, right. That's why I came here... I needed to talk to someone, you know?

- Are you ok?

- No.

She sat in a stool and rested her arms on the kitchen island. Barry sat on a stool next to her.

- My dad died last week.

- I'm sorry...

- And... - she took a deep breath, trying to speak normally – Oliver was arrested at the hospital on the same day... And then I met my sister's doppelganger. It was just too much... I decided to take some time off Legends and came to visit my mom... But I was so overwhelmed... I just wanted to talk to someone who went through this... The bastard that killed my dad escaped and I want nothing more than catch him and make him pay.

- I'm really sorry you went through all of this. I think you would like to know that Oliver is out of jail. Felicity told me two days ago.

- At least some good news.

- And they are working hard to catch the guy... I'm sure they will manage to bring him to justice. I know it's not easy, but things will get better... And when you feel like talking to someone, I'm here.

Sara smiled and got up, hugging Barry.

- I'm not that much of a hugger, but thanks...

- It's ok – Barry smiled.

- Mom? Dad? – Dawn came in, unsure if she should get closer or not – Cisco said we need to go to Star City...

Barry and Sara look at her and nod with their heads, smiling awkwardly at her.

Oliver and Kara hugged and kissed each other since they were alone at the bunker. She smiled, looking at him between their kisses.

- I'm so glad you're here. – He said, hugging her by the waist.

- I'm glad you called. – She said kissing him once again.

- Hi guys, sorry to interrupt! – Felicity said as she walked in, her hands going to her eyes – I swear I didn't see anything.

- It's ok, Felicity – Kara smiled.

- Cisco just sent me a message they are coming here... He needs help fixing a ship...

Oliver looked confused at Felicity and Kara looked excitedly at her.

- If you need any help, I have experience with ships.

- Why would team Flash need help with a ship? – Oliver asked still feeling confused.

- Because Dawn here is from the future and she needs help fixing the Wave Rider also from the future. – Barry said entering the bunker with Dawn, Sara and Cisco behind them.

- Dawn? – Kara asked.

- Why do you guys need to fix a Wave Rider from the future if it's a Legends ship? – Felicity was trying to understand, but having a hard time with it.

- She's our daughter! – Sara pointed from Barry to herself. – She crashed here by accident and needs to go back to her time.

Felicity almost choked and Oliver started to cough. Kara tried to give him slight slaps on his back.

- Ouch... - Oliver said and Kara looked worried at him.

- I'm sorry...

- It's ok – He gave her a kiss on her forehead. – Well... This is a surprise...

Dawn smiled at them and ran towards Oliver, hugging him.

- I missed you, Uncle Oliver.

Oliver was taken by surprise, and awkwardly hugged her back, making Kara and Barry laugh.

- Present Wave Rider can't help on this? – Felicity asked looking at Sara.

- No... - Dawn said, looking at Felicity – I need to bring the ship back home. It can have severe consequences to the timeline.

- You're really your father's daughter... - Felicity said, making Barry looked annoyed at her.

- Why is everybody telling me that?

- Well... - Oliver said – You did mess with timeline a few times...

- Ok, ok, I get it...

- Also, If I don't bring it back, my mom would kill me.

- You can bet I would – Sara said with her hands on her waist, smiling at her.

Cisco and Felicity grabbed a few stuff from the bunker and went back to Star Labs through a breach. Dawn looked around, excited to see the Arrow bunker. She couldn't comment with them the things she knew, so she just looked around, smiling nostalgic to herself.

- How are you? With all of this, I mean... - Kara said as she looked at Barry.

- Surprised... A bit in shock... Trying to understand...I mean...

- I know what you mean – Sara said.

- And I'm worried... I made enough mess on the timeline to know this can go really bad...

- I know... - Sara said. – But we need to focus right now and try to fix things later... I know, it's hard, but when Legends screw things up, we manage to fix them 90% of time, so...

- That's reassuring... - Oliver said.

Barry's cell phone started to make a noise. Barry grabbed it and opened the message he got.

- It's from Star Labs. They need help with a meta that's attacking Mercury Labs.

- I can help you guys... - Kara said.

- Can I help you too? – Dawn said, looking excitedly at Barry. – We never fought together before...

- It's ok, let's go. But be careful! – Sara said nodding to Barry. Kara used her extrapolator to bring them quicker to Central City.

Once the four of them stepped in Mercury Labs they felt something throwing them away. Barry and Dawn used their speed to avoid hitting the wall but Oliver didn't have the same luck. His back hit strongly against the wall and Kara floated before she could create a big hole on the wall. Dawn tried to copy her dad, with lightning bolts but ended up missing, messing up the entire place. The meta reached for her, but Barry was faster, pushing him away from his daughter. Sara took advantage to punch him, knocking him down with the help of Kara.

- I'm sorry, I almost messed it up... - Dawn said, still shaking. – I just wanted to help and...

- Hey, that's ok... - Sara said as she kneeled down and embraced Dawn while Barry pressed his hand slightly on her shoulder.

- Just because we have powers, it doesn't mean we are perfect... We make mistakes...

Back in Star Labs, Dawn was alone in the med bay after Caitlin did a quick check-up on her. Sara knocked on the door, looking worried at her.

- Can I come in?

- Sure, mom...

- I'm sorry... It's still weird for me to hear it...

- I get it – Dawn said, smiling at Sara – I wasn't supposed to come here or let you know about me, I'm so stupid... - She lowered her head.

- You're not stupid. You have no idea how many times we screwed things up with Legends... I made a lot of mistakes, like your dad said... It happens. What matter it's if we learn from them.

- I surely did...

- I'm glad to hear it...

- Listen... - Dawn turned to Sara and held her hand – I can't tell you how you and dad got together or when it will happen. And I can't see this is hard for both of you, I understand it must be a shock... But I can tell you this: in the future, you love each other so much... And I feel lucky to have you both as my parents. You're constantly telling me that the future can be unexpectedly pleasant, if only a person can open her eyes for the signs. You'll know when the time is right... You both will.

Sara didn't know what to say. She was indeed surprised, but speechless. She could tell Dawn was really well raised, she was wise and smart. She could only smile at her.

- You have my freckles... - Sara said as she looked closer to Dawn's face.

- I'm proud of them. – Dawn smiled back.

Kara and Oliver said their goodbyes and went back to Star City through a breach. Once back there, they noticed they were alone again in the bunker.

- This is so crazy... Barry and Sara... - Oliver said, thinking about it.

- Life is full of surprises... I mean, look at us – She smiled, walking closer to him.

- You're right... I'm glad for the surprises...

Kara and Oliver kissed passionately and enjoyed the calm of the bunker for once.

Sara and Dawn talked about a few more things when Barry approached them. He looked at Dawn, thinking about how everything seemed so crazy but felt so right at the same time. He couldn't understand perfectly yet, but he knew he would get there.

- I was thinking about it... - Barry said as he stood beside Dawn – I'm happy to know that in the future I have a daughter that's a hero.

- I didn't want to make a mess, but... I'm glad I got to see you two. I'm just afraid of what will happen when I go back, how things will be now you know about me... And about you two...

- Maybe there's a way to fix it and let things happen naturally... - Sara said as she remembered how her team used to deal with situations like that, like when she had to protect the past version of her dad. To think about him, made her feel sad again, but she had to focus right now. – We have memory pills; the only problem will be reach the Wave Rider since the team is on a mission God knows where...

- I remember you told me about it... Maybe future ship has it as well? I like this idea... Things can happen the way they're supposed to happen.

- Great, so... Let's do it! – Barry said.

After a while, the ship was finally fixed. They all gathered at Star Labs hangar to say their goodbyes. Dawn was feeling very emotional, so was Barry and Sara tried to hide her feelings. Dawn used her super speed and came back in seconds, holding the pills on her hands.

- I found enough pills for everyone who knows about me. I gave one for Oliver and one for Kara already. – She smiled with teary eyes.

- So... This is it... - Barry said opening his arms to hug Dawn.

Sara hugged Dawn and so did Cisco, Felicity and Caitlin.

- Thank you guys, I'm so glad I got to see all of you. – Dawn said as she gave them all the pills. – She runs to Sara and Barry's arms and hugs them – Don't worry, you'll find your way to each other – She whispered and went to the ship.

Everyone took the pills as soon as the ship disappeared in the air. They all looked at each other really confused, some feeling headache, some just feeling lost.

- What am I doing here? – Felicity asked, looking at Barry and Cisco.

- I have no idea... - Cisco said – It looks like we were having a meeting...

- I don't remember how I got here... - Sara said as she looked at Barry... But that's ok, I wanted to come anyways...

- It's everything ok? – Barry asked, worried.

- I was visiting my mom and felt like I needed to talk to someone... I needed to take some fresh air.

- Well, want to grab a coffee? And you can tell me what you wanted to talk to me...

- Sounds perfect. – Sara smiled, walking away with Barry while the other went back inside Star Labs.

She had a really good feeling about the rest of the day.
