In A Matter Of Seconds [Under Editing]

Chapter 55

"What if Cisco's right?" Everyone looked at her

"Huh?"

"What if something or someone is controlling Eiling?" They all turned to the caged man.

"Why is Eiling bad?"

"Eiling hurt me. I hurt Eiling." Emely nodded

"So if you're not Eiling, then who are you?"

"I am Grodd. Fear me."

***

"He's a gorilla."

They watched a recording of Caitlin smiling down at a gorilla, well, at Grodd.

"5 years ago, Eiling and Wells were working on a project to expand soldiers' cognitive abilities during battle."

"What we didn't realize was that Eiling was trying to create soldiers with psychic abilities." Emely looked at Cisco

"What do you mean, psychic?"

"Eiling was trying to create these super soldiers with telepathic and telekinetic capabilities."

"When Wells found out about the terrible experiments Eiling was doing, he shut down the project." Emely nodded

:So our psycho-killer has a soft spot for animals, this one being a gorilla. How sweet. So, what happened to Grodd?"

"We don't know. After the particle accelerator exploded, I went down to check on him, and his cage was empty."

"You think the explosion could've done this?"

"Maybe. There's a lot of things it's done."

"So what does Grodd want? Revenge?"

"All I know is that Wells and Grodd had a special bond."

"So if we find Grodd, we find Wells. If we find Wells-"

"We find Eddie." Everyone glanced at Iris was came walking in.

"And I'm gunna help."

"Know anything about gorillas?" Iris looked at the young doctor.

"I just might."

Emely, Cisco, Barry and Joe ended up in a sewer due to reports of an animal down there. Two workers went missing down there and the four of them went to check it out.

"Cisco, take the rest of these flares, light them, drop them as we go. It's our path back."

Emely was walking alongside Barry, her hand securely in his.

"This is scary." Barry placed a kiss on her temple.

"Don't worry. I'm here."

"I can't believe I'm looking for a supernatural gorilla. I'm terrified of regular gorillas." A piece of metal clanked, making Emely move closer to Barry's side.

"Guys, look at this." Cisco shined his light on the walls, revealing writing on them.

"Looks like we're in the right place."

They kept walking until Emely heard growling.

"There's growling. Man, if I hadn't seen Jurassic Park, I wouldn't be nearly as frightened as right now."

The growling noise never stopped and there was movement nearby. The tunnel started rumbling and that's when shit hit the fan.

Barry started to groan as he saw these images in his head.
