It was the next day and Mayor Bellow comes to the station for his reelection. Barry gets out the elevator and walks over to Joe, standing by his side. Reporters also being inside the station, the cameras all turn to face Joe and he awkwardly gives them a thumbs up before they turn back around to face the Mayor. The two then walk inside the Y/N and Barry's lab to see the speedster in front of the bulletin board, this time being of the bus metas. The girl being in a trance as she was deep in thought.
"Hey, you woke up early." Barry spoke up, causing her to turn around to face him, "I didn't even get a chance to say Good morning."
Y/N walks over to him and gives him a quick kiss on the cheek, "Good morning."
"You took the photos down from your mother's case." Joe says looking at the bulletin board.
"Oh, yeah." She shrugs walking back to the board, "That case is closed and solved. This one is new and ongoing. We only have Kilgore and Hazard leaving only ten metahumans left out there since created when I came out the Speed Force."
"How hard can it be to track down ten bus passengers?" Joe asked.
"Over 900 people hard." Y/N says, both looking her way, "A lot of people rode that bus that day."
"What about the bus driver?" Joe asked.
"I hope you have enough energy to solve a mystery." She says, Joe raising a brow, "He's dead. Found him drowned in his own bathtub."
"That's not too suspicious." Joe mutters as she gives a nod.
"Harry's right about everything being connected." Y/N said, crossing her arms over his chest, "The Samuroid pushing you guys to bring me back, me coming out a different place than planned. A bus so happens being in the way to be hit with Dark Matter."
"It was planned." Joe states.
"Yeah." Barry nods, "By someone smart."
"We're pretty smart." Joe says.
"Well, I think so." Barry shrugs, both now looking over at Y/N.
"Depends if it's a good day." She tells them.
"Yeah." Barry nods.
"Okay, let's look closer into the bus driver's death." Joe said, "It may give us a lead."
"Well, Ethan is working on getting the file." Y/N says, "After he drops Iris at work, but he'll get it."
"Sounds good." Joe smiles.
Y/N and Barry both just stare at him before Y/N tilts her head to the side and narrows her eyes on him. Barry on the other hand breaks into a bright smile.
"What?" Joe asked, looking between the two.
"I don't know." Barry smiles, "This morning, you're like, glowing."
"What do you mean, 'glowing'?" Joe asked, mocking his hand movements.
"I just mean, like, you got, like, a warmth about you." Barry clarified for him, "Like a Lite-Brite."
Y/N then breaks into a bright smile and gasp, both looking at her. Joe points a finger at her, "Don't say that I'm glowing either."
"No." She shakes her head with a smile, "Just-never mind."
"What?" Joe asked.
"Doesn't matter, just pretend that I'm not here." Y/N shrugs, starting to walk away, "Y/N Harper, knows nothing."
