Now, I have stopped watching The Flash after CRISIS ON EARTH-X but I've heard about what happened in The Flash 4x16 and Iris seriously ticked me off. This will be about Barry and possibly other heroes helping Kara on her Earth agains the Trinity as Barry questions his and Iris' relationship.

This takes place during Supergirl 3x11 and after The Flash 4x16. I know it may be inconsistent but please, just bear with it.

"How many more metas have to die before we finally stop DeVoe?" Harry called out as he explained to them his plan.

"Uh… not… not me." Ralph said. "I mean… I say we go for it. Right? Right, guys?" He turned to Caitlin, Barry, Iris and Cisco.

"What do you guys think?" Barry asked.

"I say we explore it." Iris said.

"Yeah, I agree." Caitlin nodded.

"Ramon." Harry turned to Cisco.

"No, this is way too risky." Cisco protested.

"Of course it's risky but if we succeed, we will save the lives of the four remaining bus metas, including a member of our team." Harry pointed out.

"You're talking about intense amounts of dark energy going right into your brain, right into that cap, that turned a mac-and-cheese loving pacifist into a homicidal maniac." Cisco argued. "You put that cap on, what's it gonna do to you?"

"I've run the numbers dozens of times, the math and chemistry check out, I can do this." Harry assured him.

"I don't think you can." Cisco protested.

"I can, with your help." Harry replied.

"Not this time." Cisco shook his head. "Alright, let's keep coming up with more ways to solve this." He left as Ralph scoffed.

"Just so I'm clear on this, someone finally came up with a way to stop this Laz-Z-Boy riding lunatic and we just might not do it?" Ralph demanded as he looked around and no one replied. "That's really cool, guys."

Ralph left as Iris followed him. "Hey, Ralph. Look, don't worry, OK? We're gonna figure this out."

"Yeah, everybody keeps saying that and each time we almost get DeVoe, he gets away. Every time he gets away, he's one step closer to getting me." Ralph scoffed.

"Hey, that is not going to happen." Iris assured him.

"Well, I can't take that chance anymore, Iris." Ralph snapped. "So, if anyone needs me, I will be downstairs in my tiny guest quarters until this is over."

"There are still three bus metas out there and we're gonna need your help to find them and protect them." Iris snapped back.

"Iris, the only person I need to protect from now on is good old Ralphie boy." Ralph shot back before he pressed the elevator button.

"You are a part of this team." Iris pointed out.

"Yeah, and I'm the only one with the body that DeVoe is trying to snatch." Ralph replied. "You don't have any concept of how dangerous it is for me out there."

"Yes, I do." Iris protested.

"How could you?" Ralph scoffed.

"Because I'm the leader of this team." Iris said.

"And who made you a leader?" Ralph snapped. "Who voted you as the leader of this Team Flash? Because from what I hear, Barry, Cisco, Caitlin, Joe and Wells went along just fine long before you joined the gang.

But then, after Barry had to go to Speed Force, you all decided to protect this city without Barry, with you calling all the shots. You, who had no prior experience with the vigilante thing, nor do you have to every day go out there and put your life at risk to save innocent people like Barry, Cisco or me or any cops I had met when I was still in the force.

I don't know what the hell was everyone thinking, making you a leader, when you have no idea, what it's like out there for people like me to protect others. Except, oh, wait a minute, how exactly have you guys decided to 'wake up' Barry five months ago, when he returned?" Ralph asked sarcastically.

"You put yourself recklessly and unnecessarily at risk by having Samuroid kidnap you. What if that thing killed you? What if your plan didn't work? Just because you put yourself one time at the gunsight of a killing machine, you know how dangerous it might be for me. Yeah, that's rich. Most of the time you sit on your ass behind the computer, safe and sound, while the rest of us are out in the field, putting our lives at risk."

He scoffed as Iris felt hurt. "So, I don't see why you of all people should call all the shots around here." He entered the elevator as Iris stood there, reflecting on his thoughts, not knowing that Barry was listening the whole time behind her.

Some time later, after Matthew Kim, shifted Barry's power to Iris, Barry went to talk to her after training.

"About what Ralph said…"

"Look, Barry, I know now what it's like to put your lives on the line like that…"

"I've been thinking." Barry interrupted her. "He made some good points. I know you care about me but… what you did with Samuroid five months ago was reckless. And there are things I just…" He sighed. "I know you want to do what you believe is best but… in the end, you have no idea what kind of toll your calls take on everyone. It took me a long time to see that. I've had to put up over three years with you thinking that my decisions hurt you. I was just trying to protect you but you didn't get it."

"I do, Barry—"

"Now you do but not back then." Barry said. "Or Eddie. I did what I could and it wasn't my fault what happened with him and Thawne. And I could understand, why you would call off the engagement last year but…" He sighed. "Doing that after Savitar almost killed me?"

"Barry, please, I was just—"

Barry sighed before she could finish. "Maybe you want to do what you believe is best for everyone—"

"I do, Barry." Iris pleaded.

"Then why would you put yourself at risk like that when there was more of a chance that you could have died?!" Barry snapped. "You didn't know for sure if I would snap out of it! And here's something I finally realized, when I saw you arguing with Ralph. Me spending time with you cost me the time I could have had with my best friends. Cisco, Caitlin, Harry…"

"What are you saying?"

"That I don't know where do you stand with me and everyone else anymore." Barry said. "I thought it was love but… now I'm not so sure. What I do know… is that as long as I'm with you, I'll always have to face that uncertainty."

"So…" Iris paused, realizing something.

"It's over." Barry said as he pulled out his ring and sped off, leaving Iris heartbroken as her eyes were getting wet.

"Wow." Henry managed to say as he poured himself a glass of scotch. "Well, honestly… I can't say I'm sad for Iris. I mean… I like her but frankly…"

"What?" Barry asked.

"She's a bad influence on you, Barry." Henry said as he poured another glass of scotch for Barry. "Here."

"Thanks." Barry said as he drank his scotch. "I want to care about her, I really do but… I don't like where it's taking us."

"Barry, are you sure about calling the whole thing with Iris off?" Henry asked.

Barry sighed. "What I do know is that Iris is taking control over too many things and it took me a while to see that. I—"

Suddenly, a portal opened behind them as Henry and Barry stared. "What the—"

From the portal jumped out a blonde girl with glasses and white shirt. "Kara. Is everything OK?"

"Where's Laurel? And your team?" Kara asked. "I need your help. The Birds of Prey. And Diana."

"Whoa, Kara, what's going on?" Henry interrupted her.

So, what do you guys think? Is it good? Is it bad? Should I continue?
