Part 12: Twin-KIE!
"Told you," said Henry smiling smugly as he looked at the Team.
"Yeah you did," replied Harry smiling back at the boy. I knew it! thought Harry innerly screaming😁.
Harry's smile only grew wider as Cisco passed him 20 bucks behind his back. "Never underestimate me Cisceto," said Harry making fun of Cisco's name😂.
"Never call me that again," said Cisco making a disgusted face 😖 as he walked over towards Henry with a set of keys (they made that bet while they were at Jitters).
"OK," said Cisco looking at Henry. "I'll only unhandcuff you if you promise me that you won't run away or go chasing after her," he said pointing at Nora.
"I promise," said Henry raising his handcuffed hands up in the air and placing it on over his heart. "Speedster honor," he said proudly.
"OK," said Cisco smiling cheekily at the boy as he unhand-cuffed him (DORKS☺️😂).
"Thanks," said Henry rubbing his wrist.
"No problem," replied Cisco. "Soo...you have cryokinesis?" recalled Cisco fanboying.
"Yeah," replied Henry smiling, "you want to see it?" asked Henry.
"Hell Yeah!" yelled Cisco loudly making everyone look at him. "Erm, I mean, sure," said Cisco trying to play it off.
Henry smirked at Cisco before taking a step back. He closed his eyes concentrating on the air temperature around him. Slowly the air temperature in the room dropped drastically just as Henry's hair started to turn platinum blonde. Opening his eyes they revealed to be an icy blue color. Raising the palm of his hands up in the air, Henry began to release an icy mist. Slowly, Henry began to turn his hands around in a circular motion admiring the mist.
(Similar to earth-2 killer frost)
"See," said Henry looking at the gang who stared at him in awe. Looking back at his hands, Henry made a fist with his hands stopping the icy mist from flowing. Closing his eyes Henry's hair began to turn back to normal. Opening his eyes back again, they revealed to be back to their normal blue-green color.
"WOW!" said Cisco amazed.
"Yeah," said Harry agreeing with him.
"Wait a minute," said Ralph breaking everyone out of their state of shock. "If your Barry and Caitlin's son," said Ralph gesturing between Barry and Caitlin, "then what happened to Barry and Iris?" asked Ralph pointing at Iris who was standing in a corner with Nora.
"Well," began Henry, "let's just say that things didn't work out for the so-called perfect couple," said Henry making air quotes around the word perfect couple. "After Nora was born Dad and Aunt Iris was having some problems and decided to get a divorce. After a while, dad started to focus more on his job and protecting the city as The Flash. Over time he began to hang out more at Star Labs and began to get close to mom," said Henry beginning his story. "They started going out on more missions together and even hanged out with each other after work. Months later dad began to develop feelings for mom and asked her out after a year. Their relationship had only grown from there, and they began to fight crime together as a couple," said Henry smiling at the thought. "A year later they got happily married and were known as Central City's ultimate power couple. Then a year after that they had me, the hybrid," said Henry smiling as he told the gang his story.
"And then a couple years after that, they had the twin-KIE! TWINKIE!" yelled Henry making the gang jump back at his sudden outburst, as he stopped himself from telling the group about the twins. "Do you guys have any, erm, Twinkie's in this, this time?" asked Henry stuttering hoping they wouldn't notice his little slip-up.
"Uh..., yeah. Yeah we do," said Ralph looking concern. "Do you want one?" he asked the young man.
"Uh, yes, yes please," replied Henry taking a sip of his drink to calm himself down.
"Ok," said Ralph making his way out of the Cortex to go get Henry a Twinkie.
While Ralph was gone everyone waited in silence for him to return back, which Henry was thankful for. Luckily no one noticed had noticed Henry's little slip-up or asked him questions about it, so he was fine. Or so he thought.
Unknowingly, Harry, being the genius that he was, noticed Henry's little slip-up and couldn't help but smile at the thought of it. Twins, eh? thought Harry smiling as he looked at the young man. Making a mental note, Harry was sure to ask Henry about that later on, but for now, he'll let him off the hook. At that exact moment, Ralph walked back in breaking the awkward silence.
"Here you go," said Ralph giving Henry a Twinkie.
"Thank you," replied Henry gratefully.
"So....." said Barry looking at Henry. "You said that a couple years after that we-"
"Oh, that's not important," replied Henry interrupting Barry not wanting to talk about it. "Besides I already said too much," shrugged Henry taking a sip of his drink.
"That doesn't make any sense?!" said Joe lost in thoughts.
"What doesn't make any sense?" inquired Henry looking curiously at Joe.
"Nora told us that you were the reason she ran back in time," said Joe looking at Nora who was shaking her head back and forth trying to stop Joe from telling Henry about her lie.
"WHAT?!" replied Henry looking at Nora angrily.
"Yeah," agreed Barry. "She said that you did something that put everyone's lives in danger," said Barry looking at his daughter.
"No I didn't," replied Nora denying their accusations.
"Uh, yes you did," replied Cisco back cockily.
"Yeah, you did," said Iris looking at her daughter like she had amnesia. "Remember?" asked Iris looking at her daughter in the eye.
Nora looked down at the floor avoiding Iris's gaze. She thought that maybe they all forgot about that little lie she told them since it was a long time ago, but unfortunately for her, they didn't. And now Henry knows.
"I was NOT the reason that Nora ran back in time," replied Henry as the group looked at him in shock. "Isn't that right Gideon?" Henry asked the AI.
"That is correct sir," replied Gideon from the tiny box. "You were not the reason that Nora West Allen is here, in this time. She is here because she chose to come here after she ran away," informed the AI.
"Ran away?" asked Barry confused.
"Nora," began Henry, "ran back to this time after she-" said Henry stopping mid-sentence when he saw Nora pleading with him to stop with her eyes. He wanted to tell the group that she ran back to this time after she tried to KILL my mother, but didn't. Not because Nora was pleading with him to stop, but because it might affect the timeline. He couldn't afford to lose his mother, not again.
"she," said Henry hesitantly debating whether he should tell them or not. "Because something happened in our time that caused Nora to run away," concluded Henry deciding that his family was more important than getting back at Nora. Everyone looked at Henry taking in the information. They believed that what Henry said was the truth, but Harry wasn't so convinced. He saw Henry's hesitation but decided not to say anything about it.
"What happened?" asked Cisco.
"I can't tell you," said Henry sadly.
"Don't worry," said Ralph trying to cheer Henry up. "We made sure that event won't EVER happen in the future."
"What are you talking about?" asked Henry turning his attention to Ralph.
"We have been helping Nora change the future ever since she came to this time," replied Ralph.
"WHAT?!" said Henry looking angrily at Nora.
"Yeah," replied Cisco, "that's all we have been doing for the past 3 months. Arresting meta's, fighting crime, changing future events," said Cisco listing some of the things they have been doing. "We even let some of the meta's go, which I am still confused about," replied Cisco wondering why in the world they would let a meta go after they tried so hard to catch him/her.
Henry stood there taking in the information. He couldn't believe it, they were helping Nora mess with the timeline. There's no telling what damage that could have done. For all, he knows the future that he knows could be at risk.
"This can't be right," said Henry shaking his head back and forth lost in thoughts. "This wasn't supposed to happen," he said thinking of all the possibilities altering the timeline, could have caused for the future.
"I have to go," said Henry walking out of the Cortex feeling overwhelmed with everything he just learned. He felt like he was suffocating with all the different possibilities that were running through his head. He needed to get away from here and get answers. And that is exactly what he intended to do.
"So that's it," said Barry calling out his son who was about to leave the Cortex, "you're just gonna run away?"
"Don't worry Dad," said Henry turning around to face his father. "I'll be back. I just need to go somewhere, where I'll get information," said Henry smiling at the thought of where he was going.
"Where are you going?" asked Caitlin confused.
"The Speed force," replied Henry winking at them before he was gone in a flash of yellow and light-blue lighting, leaving behind a very confused Team Flash⚡️.😉😳
