“Y/N! Could you run any slower? My invention can’t wait forever.” Your sweet and handsome boyfriend, Cisco, called you into his lab, for he had been working on a headband to help you control your powers.
Y/N, other wise known as Psychic Heart, are not only able to read and control people’s minds, but you also possess telekinesis. Your psychic powers could even outgrow Grodd’s, the only problem is, you can’t control them… Last time you practiced, you ended up accidentally breaking all the beakers in Caitlin’s lab. And the only time you had a fight with Cisco, you might’ve accidently cracked every mirror in the house.
“Okay! Okay, I’m here. What is it?” You grinned from the enthusiasm your boyfriend showed.
Before you, on display, in the middle of the room, was a metal headband, with ear buds connected to it and decorated with an led light or two. “This, is your ticket to the outside. The ticket to you controlling your powers.” He grinned proudly, “It has an Algorithm which contradicts the unstable wave lengths your brain is constantly producing. And it allows you to choose when, or when not, the appropriate time for that would be. Buuuut… you’re going to need to give it a test run. Make sure it works.”
You frowned, looking up at your boyfriend with uncertainty. “Cisco, I don’t know. I don’t want to accidentally hurt anyone if it doesn’t work.”
“Don’t worry I have it all planned out, you’ll be testing it outside in the field with no one but a can, and car beside you, and me about a mile away from you.” He explained his plans, holding your hands in a comforting manner. “Trust me Y/N, everything will be alright. Okay?”
You huffed, looking up into those cute puppy dog eyes of his, ones you couldn’t possibly resist, then nodded. “Fine, but only because I trust you.”
“Thank you.” He grinned, kissing your forehead sweetly before setting everything up to go.
~~~~~~
About 3 hours later, with a little help of Barry, everything was set up in a field miles away from Central City. You had a headset in your ear, in order to communicate with the crew, which seemed to be at a safe distance away from you for when you unleashed your powers.
“Alright Y/N. Your headband is online and seems to be fully functional. Ready to do this babe?” Cisco’s voice rang through your ear as you took a deep breath.
“I guess so… What do you want me to do? Use the force on the can, or the car first?” You teased to your very nerdy boyfriend at the other end.
He laughed, “Well, is learning, young Jedi. So, with the can, you shall begin.”
“Oh my god. Could you guys be any more geeky?” Caitlin was audibly heard, through the earbuds on the headband.
“Yes, master Yoda.” You giggled at both of your antics, and Caitlin’s comment.
Alright, enough jokes, you have a can to move and some bizarre powers to control.
Taking a deep breath, you gave your full attention to the can, imagining it floating a few feet above the ground. Before you knew it, the headband beeped, and the can was 6 feet in the air and slowly back on the floor at your command.
You couldn’t believe it, the headband worked! “I did it!!! It worked! All to my will, without losing control!” You exclaimed proudly through the earpiece.
“Hell yeah!! Genius me succeeds once again.” Cisco bragged, “Now try the car. We need to make sure it will work with objects of higher mass too.”
“Yes sir.” You grinned, now quite optimistic, walking closer to the car. You concentrated on it, the headband beeped once more and the car rose above the floor a few inches, before your head began to hurt and it was becoming difficult to hold the car steady.
“Cisco… I think something is wrong, I’m gonna need to sto—” You were then cut off by a volt bolt of electricity coming from the head band and zapping your head. Suddenly, your thoughts went blank, and your overwhelming powers had taken control of your body.
“Y/N? What happened! Should I sent Barry to get you?” Cisco called worried through the ear piece, but it went unheard by you…
The one thing in your mind was fear, uncontrollable power, and a feeling of being lost in oblivion. It was a horrible feeling to say the least, much so, that mentally you searched for someone to comfort it… Or to be specific. Cisco.
Oh but that fear wasn’t visible in the physical world outside of your head, for the car had rose a great distance from the ground, and was thrown to the direction of your friends who had lost contact with you.
“WATCH OUT!” Barry ran to his Cisco and Caitlin, moving them out of the way before the car crashed on the spot they had been previously standing on.
“Holy shit!” Cisco breathed out in fear, “Y/N is loosing control… The headband didn’t work. I need talk to her and calm her down.”
Before he knew it, you were levitating in the air, right in front of the three. Your eyes as bright as crystals and face filled with nothing more than fear. “Cisco?!!!!” You screamed, unknowingly levitating Cisco and throwing him against the now crashed car, causing him to lose consciousness. But all of this was beyond your knowledge, for you were trapped in your own head. “Cisco! Please I’m scared… Talk me.”
Caitlin and Barry looked at each other, knowing exactly what they had to do… something they knew Cisco would’ve never allowed.
In a Flash, you had lost all consciousness, including in your mind, as if you were drugged or kicked so hard you fainted.
Unknowingly to both you and your boyfriend, you had hurt Cisco, and was thrown into the Pipeline with the other dangerous metahumans.
~~~~~~~
The next day, Cisco had woken up in S.T.A.R Labs, frantic to say the least, on the hospital bed where Cait and Barry sat beside him. “W-what the hell. What happened?” He groaned, trying to sit up, until he felt a sting in his right leg and hissed. Looking down at his leg, he realized he was in a cast.
“Cisco… relax. You just got a little hurt after our tests. “ Cait said softly, “Y/N’s headband malfunctioned.”
The boy’s eyes widened in fear, suddenly more frantic to try and get out of the bed. “What happened to Y/N! Is she okay?!”
Barry nodded, “Y/N Is fine… her headband had snapped the neuron connections in her brain, the ones which connected her mind to her powers, causing her to lose all physical control over herself and give in to full power, out of fear.She couldn’t control it… “ He took a deep breath before saying anything else. “So we put her in the Pipeline.”
“The Pipeline?! Barry, she doesn’t belong there! Y/N is not a villain.” he snapped, “You need to get her out of there.”
Barry shook his head, “We’re not doing that… She’s much too dangerous.”
“He’s right, Cisco.” Caitlin added, “Y/N hurt you. And it might not have been intentional, but whatever your invention did, it made her powers completely uncontrollable to her. While she had passed out I did brain scans, and her mental and physical capabilities are completely detached from her powers.”
Cisco took a deep breath, taking it all in. He had done this to you… He had been the one to make your worse fears control. He allowed your powers to control you, and he was the one who forced you into a prison other than your home.
“How long until i can get out of this bed and see her?” Cisco finally spoke.
“Two or three days I’d say.” Caitlin specified, “I could get your tablet and speaker set here so you can still talk Barry through missions.”
He nodded lying back down on his bed, but he didn’t care about speaking to Barry through missions, his head was filled with thoughts of you. How scared were you? How disappointed had he you? And most importantly, would you be able to forgive him? Would you trust him?
~~~~~~~
“HEEELP!!!!!”
Unknowingly to Cisco, but certainly not Barry and Caitlin, you were bangin on your cell door from inside the pipeline. Screaming, yelling for anyone to talk to you, fearful on the harm you could’ve possibly caused to get you stuck in here. Only the worst scenarios came to mind…
Terror, death, casualties, destruction, and Cisco, watching or worse, experiencing it. He would never trust you again.
“HELP ME PLEASE!!” You sobbed on your cell floor, knuckles bruised from punching on the door to much. “What did I do…?!” You whimpered, continuing your yells for answers for many more hours….
