Bab 25: Chapter 25
I stopped not far from the agreed place, went into one of the alleys and waited. We agreed to meet here, away from prying eyes.
After a while, a car stopped not far from here, and a girl got out. As she entered the dark alley, she began to look around tensely. Not surprisingly, these places are not particularly safe. I didn't frighten her, just stepped out of the shadows and said:
- You came alone, I hope?-
The girl started at my voice, but then calmed down and said:
- We agreed.-
I nodded:
- Okay, then we'll talk...-
We discussed some details of our cooperation. I gave her some information about Roni and his condition, and also mentioned Stein. I saved the basic information for later, it all depends on how the girl behaves.
- Well, what I've told you is just a little thing, you know that. But if you want to know everything, you should help me. - After these words, I took out a test tube with my blood and handed it to the girl.
- That's it...-
I nodded:
- My blood, study it, tell me everything you can find out.-
- Okay, but you have to tell me some details about your condition, how your power works, and so on.-
I chuckled:
- It's not difficult. First of all, I eat people, I can eat anything, but the brain is the most nutritious, just like if I eat bone marrow...-
Then I told her the basic information about my power. Of course, I didn't mention to her that I can absorb the powers of others. When asked why I took black and Tony's bone marrow, I said that the brains of meta-humans are much more nutritious than human brains. I wasn't going to open all the cards, but I had to tell them about my weakness, because this information was very important. It was my hunger that made me decide to do business with this girl. The stronger I get, the hungrier I get, I had to do something before it was too late... So I told her that I can't satisfy my hunger with ordinary food and I have to eat the living, and I didn't forget to mention that I need to eat live people or just dead people.
After my story the girl sighed:
- Clearly... Looks like you didn't have much choice...-
I chuckled:
- There's always a choice, I could have just died, but I didn't.-
The girl shook her head:
- This is not funny, many meta people are not to blame and their abilities have ruined their lives. So what makes you different?-
I just smiled at her question, and then turned around and said:
- See you later, Caitlin, and I hope you don't talk like you promised.-
After that, I quickly left the meeting place and went to my base. The tail didn't seem to be there, but I knew it so well, judging by the sounds, the girl didn't bring anyone, this was already pleasing...

My next meeting with Caitlin won't be for a long time, so I wanted to do a few things before we meet. First of all, I decided to delay with the Piper, it would be a good chance to capture him later. He must not tell Cisco about Stein and how they had merged with Roni. I wanted to do it instead, because it was important information that Caitlin was working with me for. But I didn't want to take the Piper ahead of time either, there were risks that could interfere, and the guy himself had his own gloves, which is a good weapon. Let him stay in Star labs temporarily, and when Ramon lets him out, I'll take him easily, he won't even have time to make a sound, he's not a threat without his gloves.
The second thing I wanted to finish was Peekaboo. The teleport girl, her power was really very desirable to me. Even though she had a weakness, if I get it... Oh, I'm going to have a lot of opportunities. And soon there will be a lot of new problems, and this ability will be very useful. It is a pity that it will weaken after absorption, but otherwise, you will still have to pick it up. If she gets into Star labs, I won't see her for a long time, so I should have acted sooner.
The events with the Piper were quickly passed. Barry successfully defeated him, saved all the people on the dam, and gained fame and recognition. The guy was locked up in Star labs and the problem was solved.
Yes, that's how badly I wanted to get involved... Barry was disabled and I could easily have knocked him out, and the Piper was no match for me at all without his gloves, Flash had stripped him of them, so he wasn't a threat to me. But of course this is a stupid idea... Thawne may have speed problems, but it wouldn't take much effort to beat me. I may have super instincts, strength, sight and hearing, but even that wouldn't be enough to fight a Speedster of this level. And I would not have been put in a cell at Star labs, most likely I would have gone to the next world or tone would have conducted a couple of experiments on me. I wasn't happy about it, so there was no point in touching Barry. And not only that, you shouldn't touch flash at all, even without Thawne, the most I can afford is to take a little of His bone marrow, and you shouldn't count on more than that. Killing Barry is stupid, he's much more useful alive. Of course, it will be difficult with a flash point, but it's still a long way off, and I'll figure something out by then...

When Peekaboo finally appeared, I immediately took action. I didn't have a minute to lose; I could have taken it from under Barry's nose, but I'd better do it now, without making too much noise. I still have to deal with the Piper, so there's no time to lose...
Following the cameras for a sports car, which recently left the territory of the prison, which recently escaped the prisoner. I immediately knew where to look for the girl, so I quickly put on a suit, took a stun gun, a bag and tape. It was impossible to let the girl use her ability, otherwise there would be problems. I could put out her eyes, but I'll need them myself, I can't waste a copy like that.
I drove to the place where apparently there is a girl. It was one of the apartment buildings on the North side of Central city.
When I arrived at the place, I found the same car in which they disappeared. Then I went closer to the car and sniffed.
Hmm, good... Remembering the smell of these two, I followed the trail. It was night outside, so there were no people here, which is good for me, since I wear a mask and a suit, I don't need extra spectators.
Eight floors up, I found the right door. Judging by the sounds from the door, these two are having a good time... Well, I don't blame them, the guy was in jail, the girl must have been lonely...
