Out of Change:

(Alternative ending to Flash episode 15 'Out of time'… please enjoy)

Barry and Iris's kiss was short and tender as Mark began to form his tsunami to kill them both along with the entire city as Joe watched in horror as the wave rose high heading towards his daughter.

Barry looked to the wave and dialled in Caitlin's number.

"Barry… I got to tell you, Doctor Wells… He's…" she could not get the words out but she was cut short when Barry interrupted her "There is no time for that, there is a Tsunami heading towards the city, how do I stop it?" he asked trying to get his adrenaline surge under control from the kiss and the situation.

"Theoretically if you can create a vortex barrier along the coastline… a wall of wind that should be enough to sap the tidal waves energy before it hits the city" She informed him doing the math in her head.

"By running back and forth… how fast?" she shook her head "I don't know if you can run that fast" she said and Barry sighed before hanging up and turning to Iris "I'm sorry… I never wanted you to find out this way" he closed his eyes and began to super speed in circles, Iris's eyes widened in shock as he sped unto his familiar Flash suit "go!" he said before speeding off along the coastline as Caitlin instructed him.

Star Labs:

"Cisco… Cisco where are you?" Caitlin wandered the hall and the lab as she looked for her friend, she needed to tell him he was right about Doctor Harrison Wells but what she found made her heart shatter: she found him.

Cisco's body was lying motionless on his side staring into nothing, Caitlin took a few steps forward before dropping to her knees and cradled him in her arms, tears fell down her cheeks as she held him close… her best friend was gone, brutally murdered by the man they all trusted.

Barry:

Barry was speeding back and forth along the Coastline as the wave drew closer, Barry pushed everything he had into his speed until finally his vortex Barrier took the full force of the Tsunami, Barry was speeding back and forth as he watched the wave disappear from sight, the crowd cheered for the Flash who had saved them all from death.

Without a second thought he sped towards Mark Mardon and knocked him out with a hard right hook to his face, Joe breathed a sigh of relief as Barry handcuffed Mardon before untying Joe from his bonds and ripping the tape from his face.

"Iris" Joe gasped as his mouth was freed from the tape.

"She is fine… although a tad upset" Barry replied and Joe nodded "She knows you're the Flash" Joe realised and Barry nodded his head "Yep"

Barry Sped joe to Central City hospital before transporting Mardon back to Star Labs when he noticed the police and ambulance leaving the structure, Placing Mardon on the cell he searched for Caitlin when he found her kneeling on the floor of the lab, tears running down her face.

"Caitlin… What's going on?" Barry asked.

"Cisco… He's…" she struggled to breathe through the tears.

Barry gulped the bile rising in his mouth and shook his head "No" he muttered.

"Doctor Wells… He killed him" Caitlin let her tears fall from her eyes freely.

"NO!" Barry yelled turning the hospital bed over in anger before falling to his knees clutching his head as it throbbed in pain, he could not believe he had not seen it before "How… Why Cisco?" Barry growled out clutching his fist.

"Cisco was looking into the trap where we caught the reverse Flash that night… looks like he found the answers" Barry sped them to the room where Cisco died and Caitlin was frozen as the memory of her friend's body lay on the floor.

Barry looked to her and his own anger dissipated and in turn became guilt "Caitlin" she looked to him "I'm sorry… I wasn't… why don't you go to the main lab?" he was not thinking properly when he brought her here now he was and he was ashamed of himself.

Caitlin shook her head "No… I need to know what he found" she replied stealing herself for what they were about to see, Caitlin checked the logs and found Cisco was right when he told her that the super capacitors were still fully charged when the Reverse Flash got out of the trap.

Barry did some tinkering when Caitlin froze in fear "Barry" she whispered and Barry looked before speeding himself in front of Caitlin "Wells!" he yelled but no reply, Reverse Flash just stood there on the spot saying the same things on repeat.

"It's a hologram… a recording" Caitlin said confused.

Before they knew what had happened though something else took the Reverse Flash place… Cisco.
