《Harrison's Daughter [1]》Chapter 1 The Changing Boom
Advertisement
Paparazzi holler at the girl as she took her stance behind her father. The cameras flash rapidly. This was usual for her as Central City idolize the young women.
Her father handed her sunglasses from his pocket. She thank him quietly before slipping them onto her her face.
The paparazzi didn't let up until he tap his mic.
"Thank you for your attention, my name is Harrison Wells and tonight the future begins. The work my team and I do here will change the understanding of physics bringing advancement in medicine and trust me the future will be here faster then you think."
She doze off, her mind occupied on the party she set up for her close friends engagement. She couldn't wait to surprise them with pizza for Ronnie mostly and Caitlin tickets to Hawaii. She practically beg her father for four months to give them vacation time which he gave in after she agreed to appear publicly for today.
As the speech finish someone in the crowd yell "I love you Varity!" She blush before taking the mic saying she love them too with a small giggle at the end. Everyone cooed at her innocence.
Her father tap her shoulder signaling her they had to head back. She gave a curt nod before following. "Did you see the twinkle in those people's eyes, you never seem to disappoint me when you make a speech. You give something that all people want which is hope, this is why you're my favorite father."
"I'm your only father." He replied with a smirk. They enter the room where scientist where buzzing around standing by the desk where Cisco stood.
She giggled while her father smirk he love hearing her laugh.
"That why you're my favorite don't you agree Cisco?"

He look over to the two. "Well, not the father part since he not my dad but yeah I highly agree."
She pull him into a hug. He melted in loving the warmth she radiated. He felt like he was wrapped in the fluffiest, coziest blanket you could find.
"You did a great job newbie." Her father call for Cisco. She let go watching him leave before heading to her favorite couple.
"Tahiti?" question Ronnie as he gaze down his lover. "I know it a long flight but we could binge watch Orange Is The New Black." Caitlin suggested with a smile. "O-okay, but what about Italian pizza and wine and even more pizza?"
She stood at the entry way giggling quietly.
"Yes but Italy doesn't have mai tais and a honeymoon isn't a honeymoon without mai tais." She boop his nose as he press a kiss to her forehead.
"You two are adorable when you argue." They turned seeing the youngest standing on the doorway. Ronnie pulled her into a hug. "Have you gotten smaller?" She gasp pushing him away pouting going to hug Caitlin who chuckled holding the girl against her. "If I'm the smallest I better be the flower girl." They chuckled at her comment.
She headed toward her father as the couple follow right behind.
"Dr.Wells the accelerator is primed and ready for Particle injection." Cisco stated firmly. "Well, I feel like I should say something profound all I could think of to say is I feel like I waited for this day for centuries." He look towards his daughter with a smirk as she smiled at the rest of her friends.
He places his hand on the computer and backs it away.
"That it? I thought there would be like a loud bang." Cisco raise an eyebrow. "If there was a loud bang we would all be in big trouble," Ronnie retorted "Take it from the guy who help build it."

"Ladies and gentlemen we did it." Wells announce. Applause erupts from all the fellow scientists. Caitlin and Ronnie share a kiss while Varity high five Cisco. Her father pop a bottle of wine but the liquid started floating then splash to the ground.
Sirens quickly went off.
Varity spoke slowly "Was that-"
Ronnie finish the sentence. "-The loud bang, yep."
Cisco, Caitlin, and her father immediately started typing on the computers as the other scientists panic around.
"There an anomaly in the chamber." Cisco continue typing investigating the problem.
"The ring structural integrity is holding." Caitlin inform the rest of the group.
"It started a chain reaction. The system is collapsing, we need to shut it down." Wells look at the three except Varity he didn't want to risk her life. He owed that to her.
"We can't from here. We need to to do it manually." Cisco turn away from the computer staring at Wells. "Go!" Her dad shouted. "I'll come with you." Ronnie added on as he nodded. "Ronnie no!" Caitlin took a step in front of him she was afraid for him. He grab both of her hands firmly looking straight to her eyes. "I'm the one who engineer it and I know how to operate the shutdown."
Varity pull Cisco into a hug whispering softly. "Please be safe and look after Ronnie." She kiss his cheek, "I-it's for good luck." Cisco was daze never getting a kiss from a pretty girl.
She step away giving Ronnie a hug ignoring the nonresponding Cisco. "Look after Cisco he um dazed and be careful, please for Caitlin sake."
The two girls watch the clock tick down. When it finally hit zero they hurried to the destination the boys were located. "Where Ronnie? Cisco where is he?" Caitlin raise her tone not seeing him outside. "He still inside," He spoke guilty, "What! Cisco open the door!" She stood in front of him, "I can't, we are on lock down mode."
Her eyes widen with fear. "Cisco we have to get him out of there or he gonna die." Caitlin held a sob that almost rip from her.
"Cisco can you hear me!" Ronnie question through the walky-talky on the other end. "Ronnie its me." Caitlin grab the walky-talky from his hand pacing.
Tears stream down Varity face. Deep down she knew he wasn't going to survive. "Is Cisco there?"
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"I adjusted magnets to redirect the beam to try to prevent the system, so the blast up goes up not out," All three of them share a look. "There has to be another way out of there, you have to find it." She pleaded holding on the device tighter.
"Hey, the chain reaction I can't reverse it, the door must stay shut to protect you, all of you." He spoke gently as she shook her head wiping the tears from her face.
The Accelerator went off and change every person life that day. Some lost people but one thing for sure is they gain a new breed of human life either for the better and the worse of Central City.
