'The Flash' meets 'The Dash'

Previous ChapterNext ChapterBarry’s POV
Meanwhile Barry took Oliver back to the statue and then explained to Celestia his adventure, then wished her well and then left to go back to Ponyville again.
On the way back he could have sworn that he saw yellow lightning in the air.
And he wondered if it could possibly be the Dash of this pony world.
But he didn’t stay or stick around to ask any more questions, he just had to get back home now, and so he crossed the blue portal and found himself home once more again. “Barry!” Caitlin said first rushing over to him in a hurry and then hugging him in a tight embrace she said, “We have been doing all that we can here to get you back here and I’m just so glad that you’re finally back.”
“Yeah, that’s great,” he said, “But can you loosen up a bit with the hug now? You’re kind of cutting off my breathing and blood flow.”
“Oh nonsense,” she said releasing him, “Your vitals read just fine.”
“Yeah man, we missed you, I’m just so glad that you’re back now,” Cisco said and he also hugged him too, but lightly, and then he fist bumped him and said, “Never do this to us again, do you hear me Barry? Never get taken away again.”
“Alright, I’ll try not to mess with the dimensional beings or powers that are,” he said almost jokingly since he knew there were things out there that science just couldn’t explain, or at least not exactly anyhow, “It’s sure nice to see you once more again, and you wouldn’t believe what I have seen and experienced.”
“I’m sure that you’ll tell us all about it when you can,” Cisco said with a laugh.
“Yeah,” Caitlin said, “For now you can rest and relax now that you’re home.”
“And as for me,” Oliver said, “I would like to stay, but I have my friends and city to get back to as well, but you can tell me all about it later, okay?”
“Alright,” Barry said, “I will.”
And with that said Oliver quickly hugged Barry and then left the room to go back home. And Barry, well he started and tried to explain his journey.
“I can’t believe that you actually believe that you met talking ponies,” Cisco said, “And I also can’t believe that you have met even more speedsters.”
“I told you that you wouldn’t believe me,” Barry said laughing, “But it’s all true, I swear it, I mean would I lie or even try to make something like this up?”
“Yeah, you’re right, you’re smart and clever but you’re not a jokester.”
“Yeah, well I think I have talked on long enough now, I just want to relax and rest now if you don’t mind, it was an enduring experience after all.”
“Alright, you go get your rest and relaxation, I think that the city will be fine without you for a few more hours even if you have been gone for three days.”
And with that said Barry went down to rest and his mind slowly drifted off to sleep, but Cisco and Caitlin did not rest or sleep easily that night, for they still had questions, and they couldn’t help ask them in the control room.
“I still don’t understand how or why Barry was taken away from us through that breach,” Cisco said, “I mean it just doesn’t make any sense, we closed all the portals and no one else could have the technology or knowledge or power to open one up, and Barry isn’t fast enough to open one up either too.”
“Well perhaps maybe we should consider that maybe the portal wasn’t opened on this side, but from the other side instead,” Caitlin said curiously.
“What do you mean by that exactly?” Cisco said afraid of the implication.
“What I am saying is that the portal was opened by something or perhaps maybe even worse, someone on the other side, someone with all the power, knowledge and technology that we do, someone that is also smart wise and clever too, someone like our old mentor Harrison Wells, someone devious.”
“But who,” Cisco asked, “Who could have access to all of that?”
“I really don’t know,” Caitlin said, “But in my experience with science there is rarely such a thing as coincidence, only the illusion of it, and this probably wasn’t just chance either, but I really hope that we don’t meet them in the future, we already have enough problems with meta humans as it is, we don’t need another bad guy as smart as our old mentor from another world.”
“Yeah,” Cisco said trying to think of a joke to lighten the mood, “That would be a problem indeed, but I don’t think it’s them we have to worry about.”
“Oh, really, then what do we have to worry about?” Caitlin said.
“You going to pony land and coming back with a talking pony and being all girly, and trust me, I do not want unicorns and rainbows decorating this room, so you just make sure to stay far away from the portal that we opened up.”
“Cisco!” Caitlin said going into the joke/ prank, “I would never!”
“Oh, really?” Cisco said, “We’ll see about that soon enough with time.”
Caitlin laughed and giggled as she chased him around the room in circles.
But while all was well in STAR Labs all was not well in another world.
Celestia herself was still also troubled over the visitors that had come.
She was concerned that if more humans from that other world discovered the way to her home they might destroy everything good about it and she had to trust the request that she gave to keep the land a secret from the others.
But little did she know that Barry and his friends would keep the secret,
But little did they all know that in the Human World of Equestria trouble was brewing right under the noses of all those around the person who brewed it.
