Is The Truth Surfacing?

On the other hand, Oliver just arrived at the entrance of Ramon Industries.

"Last time I saw this place it was still a rundown shit hole"

" I still can't believe they managed to transform Star Labs this much", Felicity said sizing up the building

When the guards at the entrance recognized them, he stood aside and let them in. As they walked in, they saw Barry's group walking towards them.

"You made it" Barry said hand in his pockets walking towards them.

"Hey Barry" Felicity walked up and hugged him, "It's been such a long time" Then she went up and hugged Caitlin and Cisco.

For a second there, Barry could've sworn he saw Caitlin glare at him while she was hugging Felicity. The guys just exchanged handshakes and started making small talks right away.

"Still can't wrap my head around all of this" Oliver said folding his arms," I still remember when this place was just a rundown laboratory after the issue with the particle accelerator"

" It was kinda tough during the first year. We just settled with technology and tried to make some useful gadgets for combating meta-humans", Barry said

"Then we got access to the funds Wells prepared beforehand. He was probably going to use it for whatever bullshit he had planned out, so we use that as capital. We've been partnering with the Police and a little of the army. We got a good deal of the cash flow from selling them anti-meta human gadgets. And another from making day to day equipments among some other things"Cisco added

" That was some careful planning you guys did there. Have to give you credit for that. To make this much of a progress is such little time is not an easy task" Oliver commented.

" Hey Barry, why don't you show us to where you do all your flash stuffs first? I've always wanted to check those out how Cisco comes up with those designs he makes. I'm trying to see if there's any improvements we can add to Oliver's suit" Felicity added.

As Barry was about to lead the way, his phone suddenly rings. When he looked at the caller id, he frowned a little...

" Barry, we need you over here now, there is a weird crime scene I want you to check this out for me and see if you can come up with anything" Joe said over the phone," I'll forward you the location"

" Alright. I'll be right there", he said and hung up.

" Joe called. He needs me at a crime scene. I have to go for a while. I'll see you later"

" Alright. Take your time", Oliver said.

" Have fun" he said and sped off

*A Neighborhood South Central City*

Barry ran into an alley and made sure no one was watching before he got out and walked to the location Joe sent him.

"You're here" Joe said when she saw him at the entrance of the apartment

"Yeah. Good Morning" he said following

"So, A neighbor reported that there was screams coming from inside the house yesternight" he said then walked into the bedroom." Then we found... this" he said with an hankerchief over his mouth.

"It was even surprising to find that it was a college's body. We didn't find that out untill we got the address" Joe said looking at the body.

Barry looked over and saw a body with an exposed cranium, probably from being imploded. Blood splattered around the floor with brain juice mixed in. He moved closer and bent down to take a closer look at the man.

" The head seemed to have imploded on itself, probably from the inside. But no condition known can cause this. So, we've either looking at some special meta-human's power or... " then Barry started running his brain towards through every possible outcome, after a moment, he paused for a while "...or this is some sort of alchemy trick"

"Alchemy?" Joe sent a questioning gaze his way.

" Alchemy is like a sort of magic, better though, kinda like dark magic and stuffs like that. It's main abilities lies in altering the molecular structure of a body, creating a new substance from an old one, telepathy and some more."

" So what you're saying is that someone might have use alchemy to alter the structure of this officer's body till his brain imploded? If so... what is their gain in doing this? It still doesn't make sense"

" Unless... Unless it's a diversion" immediately he said this, Barry felt chills run down his spine, 'the only person I think could've done this is Dr.Alchemy. And he's working under... Savitar! Does this have to do with what Wells was trying to tell me back then. Alchemy is the only plausible explanation for this kind of injury would be from alchemy and if they're trying to create a diversion... Oh! Shit!'

"Joe. I'm sorry I have to go now. I think they created a diversion to lure me away."

" They're after you? How?"

" I can't explain now. But I promise to fill you in when things settle down" Barry said as he jogged down to a quite place and tapped his ring, wearing his costume and speeding off in an instant.

"Please! Let me make it there on time!"
