«So we're just supposed to sit around and do nothing? - Barry asked grudgingly.
Wells nodded:
«Exactly, we have no other options, we can't keep him in a cell like the rest of the meth.
«Dr. Wells is right, maybe what he's doing is wrong, but that's only from our point of view, if you look at it another way, he has no other choice, and he could eat everyone, but he doesn't. - Caitlin agreed.
Cisco hummed:
«Even if he did, how do you explain him taking Black's bone marrow?
Everyone fell silent, and after a while Wells said:
«Perhaps it was more nourishing to him, until we figure out how his power works, then it's hard to draw conclusions. - Then Harrison turned to Caitlin and spoke:
«Ms. Snow, well research his DNA as well as all the information on Hunger, we need to be prepared for anything. This is him for now, eating criminals, but that could change....
Caitlin nodded:
«Got it.

There's been a rather interesting character on the radar recently. Plastic is definitely not a woman I'd want to be in contact with, it's quite dangerous... Star Labs is having some problems with the military right now, let them sort it out. This girl with the ability to turn everything into explosives doesn't interest me, her abilities, while good, have a lot of drawbacks. I do not need them, although, with my ability to create small parts of her body, it would be good, could create something like grenades or mines. Even so, it's not worth it... So I refrained from getting her bone marrow, though I might have had a small opportunity. From what I remember, she wouldn't live long and would explode very soon, it would be a nice help to Barry in mastering the ability to run on water. Thawne cleverly got rid of her, even managed to help Barry a little with his powers.
In general, I did not interfere in their affairs, but sat quietly and waited for a good hunting opportunity. It would be in about a week or two. I wrote out most of the moments that I remembered from the series, but I watched it just before I came to this world, so I still remember a lot of things. There's a guy named Rust who's going to show up very soon, and it's his powers I really want to get my hands on. Even if it's a weakened version, I wouldn't mind. I'm not sure how it'll work on me, but I'd like to test it out.
The plan to get Tony's bone marrow was already in place, it was just a matter of executing it. I could have been smart enough to take his marrow twice, the first time when Barry beat him, and the second when Blackout finished him off. But the first way didn't suit me a bit, for one thing I don't know how weakened Barry will be after the fight with Rust, his strength might be enough for me. I know they're not going to catch me, but who knows what Flash has in mind, I can't handle his speed. Secondly, the main problem was Tony's life, he could just die when I get his bone marrow, even though I've learned to do it safely, anything can happen, it was risky, and I'm not a risk taker. His life should still be of service, I don't want to kill him before his time. I could get his brains a little later, Blackout would do it for me, I'd just have to eat.
That's what I decided on, so I started waiting for electric-man to show up.....
Shortly thereafter, Rust was safely defeated by Barry's supersonic speed kick. I was only a passing spectator as I hacked into a couple of cameras and watched some of the events in town. After that, Tony was taken away and locked up in Star Labs.
A little over a week later, someone else showed up. A new meta, the one I've been waiting for. I had already decided on his powers, so I wasn't going to absorb them. I needed him for something else. Once Blackout finished off Rust, I'd be there to absorb the marrow. The problem was, I didn't know what would happen next. If I blacked out again like I did with the Multiplex, that would be very unpleasant. I bought two doses of good psychostimulants to solve it, it might help, I guess... Still, I'm not quite sure what will happen to me, so after absorbing the brain I have to be very fast and run as fast as possible to the exit. Psychostimulants might not help, my body is a bit unusual, so I shouldn't rely on them. Blackout will do everything for me, and I'll just have to show up ready to go.
After a rather brief skirmish between Flash and Blackout, some of Barry's energy was absorbed and he lost his speed. I wanted to seize the moment, but I restrained myself and continued to wait.
The watchmaker also wanted to visit, after all his skills were not bad, it was interesting to see him in action, but there was only time for one thing, and naturally I chose Rust and his bone marrow.
After gathering all the gear and preparing the drugs and the syringe for the puncture, I got in my truck and headed towards Star Labs, a big mess was going to start there very soon.
I didn't have to wait long, because when I arrived and parked in an inconspicuous place, I heard a huge explosion, and then the whole Star Labs was blacked out. Farouk had begun his work, it was time for me to intervene, I don't know exactly when Thawne will release Rust, but it's worth it to be on the safe side, I wouldn't want to lose such a specimen.
Blackout could sense me, so I kept my distance and gradually moved to follow him.
I was very nervous, for at any moment Blackout could come at me and then I would be quickly finished. Even Barry couldn't beat him, and if it wasn't for the excess speedforce that Farouk couldn't absorb, Thawne would have had to intervene.
I guess I was lucky, Blackout ignored me and moved forward. It was good to have super hearing, so I could keep my distance and not get caught.
