Chapter Twenty-Eight:

Harrison Wells was a very successful man. Even he knew that. At the age of twenty-eight, he married Tess Morgan. Not long after, the couple moved to Central City, where they could pursue their dreams. Together, they founded the institution of STAR Labs. By the time he was in his forties, STAR Labs was renown and he was just as famous as the building itself.

Of course, no one understood the brilliant man. Sure, he was famous. Yes, he had at least ten biographies. Still, sometimes people wondered went through that big head of his. He hired many people—a lot of them nobodies. He told the world that he searched for people with a lot of potential—people with impressive resumes and school records. However, only he and his wife knew the truth behind the people he hired.

Cisco Ramon, Caitlin Snow, Ronnie Raymond, and Barry Allen were all asked to come to work for him for a specific reason. Although he knew that these people weren't the same he had come to think of as family during his stint on Earth One, having them work with him made him feel closer to them. Sure, these young adults never quite understood why a famous scientist sought them out—why their boss was so friendly to them—but none of them could object to it. To these young people, STAR Labs became a second home and Harrison Wells and his wife an additional family.

It was a working environment that Harrison strived to create—and worked very hard to maintain.

"Hey, Harry."

"Yup?" Harrison Wells from Earth Two responded quickly.

"Are you really sure you have to leave?" Caitlin asked.

"There's a lot I still have to fix on my Earth," the older man replied.

"Yeah, but you know it's more fun when you're here helping us," Cisco reasoned.

"He's right," Barry agreed. "It isn't the same without you."

"Team Flash doesn't feel complete without Harrison Wells," Caitlin finished.

Harry smiled and shook his head, looking down.

"Then, change that," he told them.

"There's a whole multiverse of Harrison Wells out there—in fact, there's more than one multiverses as you all well know. You want one? Let's go get one."

They shared a look.

"The question is," Caitlin mused, "do we want to pester a Harrison Wells we know, or find a new one."

"There's also the fact that we have no idea where to find him," Cisco told them. "Albert was the one that took him home—we don't actually know what Earth he lives on…or how to find it."

"Easy," Harry replied. "We just make a projection and using your powers, project a message into all of the known multiverses. In the message, there's a puzzle only I could solve and then we review our replies."

"And if our Harrison replies that he wouldn't mind returning, his signal will lead us to the right Earth!" Cisco exclaimed. "That's brilliant!"

"Are you sure this will work?" Cisco asked slowly, staring at the dry-erase board full of equations and the like as Harry was working on some sort of machine in the corner of the room.

"Pretty sure," he replied, not looking away from his work.

"I just hope that if our Harrison doesn't want to come back, we end up with a Wells with a better attitude. I'm not sure I can stomach another Wells with your bedside manner."

Harry handed him his vibe-glasses and retorted, "I care for you too, you jack-wagon." He walked over to a computer, pecking at the screen. "Systems are up. What are you waiting for?"

Cisco put on his glasses, holding out his fist and creating a breach. As it formed into a stable wormhole, Harry shot out a message through the satellite he had been programming and the message entered it with a flash of red. The wormhole disappeared with it.

"That's it!" Harry exclaimed.

"That's it?" Cisco asked. "So now what?"

Harry paused.

"We go get a Big Belly Burger," he replied, walking down past him.

"Guys I've never vibed across multiverses before!" Cisco exclaimed.

"Just a little bit longer," Harry told him.

Then, through the wormhole came three figures. The most recognizable was, of course, Harrison. He looked to be about ten years older or so. With him were two females. The older one had long dark blonde hair and a radiant smile. The other looked to be about three. She had wispy brown hair that was pulled up in a little sprig at the top of her head.

"Harrison!" Cisco exclaimed, coming forward to hug him.

"Huh, I don't know why I expected to get you immediately after you left us in your timeline," Barry muttered. "It's a bit weird seeing you…thirty…"

"You've already seen me in my late forties," the young man retorted, gesturing to his doppelganger. "Why would thirty surprise you?"

"'Cause you were….twenty?" Cisco replied slowly.

Harrison laughed and clapped him on the shoulder. Then, he turned back to the others and said, "Meet the family! Tess, you've already heard of," he gestured to his wife, "and of course, Jesse!"

Harry's daughter, Jesse, smiled and walked forward, grasping the toddler's hand.

"How are you, Jesse?" she cooed. "You have such a pretty name."

The young girl shot her a beaming smile and tottered behind her mother's legs.

At Harry's inquisitive look, Harrison nodded, "Yeah, it sort of felt like a jinx when we named her that—after all what with your Jesse, and all…" he trailed off, remembering that the teenager had been kidnapped by Zoom. "But, it was the name Tess had picked out even before my trip here, so…we sort of stuck with it."

He grabbed his daughter and lifted her onto his shoulders where she giggled and tangling her chubby fingers in his hair.

"Well, I think it is about time for my Jesse and I to return home," Harry smiled.

While the others were welcoming Harrison back, Harry pulled Cisco aside and whispered something to him. Barry and Wally both hugged Jesse and Harrison wished her luck.

"Okay!" Harry said, turning back to them. "You all ready?"

"Yeah," Jesse breathed.

"Okay, Cisco," the older man said. "Out with the old, in with the older I suppose."

Harrison laughed and Caitlin said, "Aw, you'll never be old to us, Harry."

Cisco put on his vibe glasses and conjured yet another wormhole.

"Let's do this," Harry said, grabbing his daughter's hand. "Oh, oh, one more thing." He turned back to the others. "While I'm gone, never ever, no matter what—"

And he broke off as there was a flash of yellow and the two disappeared with the wormhole.

"Well," Harrison said, clapping his hands together. "I'm famished. How about some Big Belly Burger?"

"Some things never change," Caitlin smiled.

Harrison laughed, handing his daughter to his wife, who kissed him on the cheek and smiled, "I can't believe I'm actually on Earth One. I'm excited to get to know your friends."

Her husband grinned.

"I'm excited for you to get to know them."
