Nora's Big Mistake Ch. 50

Skilled knife-fighter: When fighting Ray, Natalie was able to use a knife to slash him twice before getting disarmed.

Expert stick-fighter: When fighting Oliver, Natalie was able to wield a metal pole against the bow-wielding vigilante, hold her own for a time and even land a hit on him though she clearly caught Oliver off guard.

Intimidation: As Slipstream, Natalie possesses an intimidating presence that would force other individuals to give up information or stop an investigation on her. Damien Darhk notably wasn't afraid of her; only her super speed.

She had the following weaknesses;

Mental instability: Natalie is unbelievably arrogant, erratic, cruel, unstable and delusional; for example, after travelling back in time, she discovered via the Flash Museum that she was destined to become one of XS's greatest enemies, as she could never become like her then-idol, she developed an hatred towards Nora Snow-West. This hatred was further intensified when Natalie was prepared to reveal her existence as a speedster to a crowd in the 41st century after she had gained enough tremendous speed; which was the first time that Nora and Natalie met each other in real time, however, the cyrogenetic speedster beat her, saving the crowd from an unknown disaster and thus; stealing Natalie's moment of glory; albeit that Nora had no intention or desire to upstage her. Since that moment - she became obsessed with trying to destroy Nora's life - spurred on by the grandiose belief that she is superior to the latter. In truth, Natalie lacks any form of morals or honor, all traits that her arch-nemesis stands for. Natalie has a habit of underestimating her opponents - despite years of battling against Nora, she still underestimates the cyrogenetic speedster - which has led to several of her downfalls at the latter's hands. Natalie's obsession with trying to destroy Nora's life almost costs her her own life. After Natalie created the Reverse-Flashpoint timeline not only so that she could usurp Nora's role as XS, but also to hurt her, but after Nora used the particle eradication distributor to prevent the Reverse-Flashpoint timeline ever happening again, she was being erased from existence by the timeline itself; even her connection to the Negative Speed Force was not able to prevent this from happening; fortunately, Natalie still remains in existence; due to Nora severing her connection to the Negative Speed Force.

Water: Like most fire, water can extinguish Natalie's flames.

Emotional state: In the new multiverse, Natalie's powers draw heat and pressure from the Earth's core below her. As such, an emotional outburst or a prolonged state of anger will cause magma to start rising to the surface, enough to possibly decimate Central City and transform it into a volcano.

She had the following former weaknesses;

Anti-speedster weapons: The Legends have an arsenal of anti-speedster guns, invented by Natalie herself, which would allow the user to momentarily slow Natalie down. However, Natalie showed herself resistant to the weapons, restoring her powers after mere moments.

Particle eradication distributor: After Nora Snow-West used the particle eradication distributor to prevent the Reverse-Flashpoint timeline from ever happening, Natalie was being erased from existence by the timeline itself, as it had somehow bypassed her connection to the Negative Speed Force. In order for Natalie to remain in existence, Nora had to sever Natalie's connection to the Negative Speed Force.

Positive tachyons: Since the Negative Speed Force is the opposite of the regular Speed Force, positive tachyons are theorized to weaken Natalie's powers as she produces negative tachyons. However, negative tachyons can also leech off positive tachyons to draw power. This suggests that too much positive tachyons can actually offset negative tachyons.

Cold temperatures: Much like other speedsters, Natalie seems to be weakened or at least momentarily stunned when exposed to an extremely cold environment. This was proven when Leonard Snart's Cold gun knocks Natalie unconscious for a short period of time.

Irregular gravity: Natalie is unable to access her speed while in space or on the moon. While Ray suggests this is because of the lack of gravity, Natalie is still unable to phase or vibrate herself while tied up on the moon, which does possess a gravitational force. However, this may simply be because of the differing gravitational forces of Earth and the moon, meaning that Natalie would be able to phase in that particular level of gravity. Also, she needed to manually restore her normal appearance with the appearance-stealing cord instead of vibrating on her own power. She can however still access her speed and phasing abilities to their fullest effect when Earth-level gravity is artificially replicated (e.g. on the Waverider).

Nanites: When Natalie was shot with a nanite arrow, she lost her powers for a short amount of time even though Oliver said it'd take away her speed for 'quite awhile', and she could somewhat vibrate; allowing her to phase the nanites out of her body, instantly restoring her powers.

Time alterations: While willing to make huge leaps through time and likewise meddle with events, Natalie has a great fear of time manipulation done recklessly by others. This is due to the existence of the Time Wraiths who act as guardians to the Speed Force's energy. While existing as a time remnant as her past self was erased from existence, Natalie was forced to constantly run, even through the timeline itself, to avoid getting killed by the relentless hunting of the Black Flash, of which Natalie was utterly terrified of facing. After her return from some unknown place, Natalie seemed to have solved her problem with the Black Flash, as she appeared nonchalant when confronted about her previous erasure. She claimed to discover that 'the timeline is malleable' and was able to predict the timeline with ease. However, because of the time stone's ability to nullify any time variables, she began to slowly fade away from existence when the stone was used.

Cicada's dagger: Cicida's dagger has the power to disable and negate the superhuman abilities of meta-humans who gained powers due to exposure to dark matter, including Natalie. In 4278, it is used to dampen Natalie's powers while she's in prison on death row. However, since Team Flash sent the dagger to the Mirrorverse in 2019, this caused it to vanish in 4278, thereby allowing Thawne to regain access to her powers.

Speed Force connection flux: According to Gideon; Natalie severely damaged her connection to the Speed Force from having traveled back in time and killed Nora's mother, Caitlin Snow-West. Even when Natalie's ancestor Eddie committed suicide to wipe Natalie out of existence, the Negative Speed Force continued to exist despite Natalie being the creator, so this implies the Negative Speed Force truly is immune to timeline changes as Thawne said. While later regaining her super speed and most of its related powers due to setting the timeline back on course through the particle accelerator explosion leading to Barry becoming the Flash, she still lacked a stable connection to the Speed Force, rendering her unable to travel through time and stranded in the distant past. At the same time, her recovered speed was unstable, randomly working, and also appeared to affect her ability to walk. To compensate somewhat, Natalie relied on the tachyon prototype to stabilize her powers for a longer duration. However, the version that had existed after the Flashpoint timeline never experienced these damaging events, thus is able to use her powers to their fullest with ease. Later, the original version who wore Wendy Stryker's appearance somehow managed to stabilize her connection.

Lack of physical form: As negative tachyons, Natalie does not have a stable form and has to possess a person to remain stable as well as the connection to the Negative Speed Force. In addition, when she possesses someone, she has to make them fully give in to their negative emotions (such as Nicole Stryker's despair and guilt over losing Maya) in order to completely take over their body. Until she's fully taken over her host, she cannot access the Negative Speed Force. However, since the Speed Force gave her back her body, she doesn't need to find a host again.

She had the following original multiverse equipment;

Slipstream ring: Natalie owns a ring with a Slipstream lightning-bolt and fireball symbol on it that can open up a wall in the Time Vault that contains a mannequin which she uses to store her Slipstream suit. Natalie is able to hold her entire costume in her ring, and shoot it out of the top, allowing her to change into it at super speed and always have it ready for wear.

Slipstream suit: Natalie wears a protective suit while acting as the Slipstream, to hide her identity from her victims and withstand extreme force. It is similar to the XS's future suit, but only reversing the colors (purple to cyan, cyan to purple).

Earpieces: On her suit's cowl, there are two lightning-bolt shaped earpieces, also similar to those on Nora's XS suit. The suit has wireless communication capabilities through its built-in earpieces, though it is unclear what Natalie uses them for, as he is not shown to have any other allies other than Gideon and Grodd. It's possible in her current post-Flashpoint iteration that she uses it to communicate with her teammates Malcolm Merlyn and Damien Darhk, although Natalie prefers to wear a black leather jacket instead of her suit, and as such tends to use wireless earpieces to communicate with them.

Holographic interface: The suit has a computer-like connection to Gideon, giving the user portable access to the A.I. It has a holographic projection of Gideon in the center of the suit's palm.

Retractable half-face mask: Natalie, as of re-appearing on Earth-52, wears a nanotech mask that only covers the large mouth hole on her Slipstream suit, leaving the glowing-red eyes exposed. For reasons unknown, she has not used it since.

Various future technologies: Natalie has several devices and gadgets from her time at her disposal. Some have been displayed and their functions have been shown, though there are those that are still unknown.

Appearance-stealing cord: This device has two cords that are connected to two organisms, corroding one while transferring that one's genetics (especially phenotypes) to the other, allowing the survivor to physically resemble the other in every way. Natalie used this to physically become Wendy Stryker. After Flashpoint, Natalie modified this device (or an identical one) to be used without killing the person she uses it on, only causing the victim pain, and allowing her to revert to her normal appearance when she wishes so she is not trapped with any one appearance. Natalie used the modified device on Martin Stein and others during his quest for the Spear of Destiny. Natalie implies having used this to get Wendy Stryker's appearance once again upon her return to Earth-One.

Biomolecular enhancer: Natalie gave this to the Nazis in 1942 as a bargaining chip in a trade with Adolf Hitler. It was used to mutate Baron Krieger into der Übermensch. Ray Palmer modified Natalie's enhancer into a drug to cure Nate Heywood's hemophilia. As a result, Nate also received meta-human powers of identical to Tony Woodward's.

Pager: Natalie has a futuristic watch-like pager which can indicate whenever Black Flash is near.

She had the following former equipment;

Gideon: Natalie uses Gideon, an advanced artificial intelligence created by Nora Snow-West; to aid her during her travels through time and when monitoring the timeline.

Tachyon device: After Natalie's connection to the Speed Force began fluctuating, she stole this device from Mercury Labs, using it with the intentions to get faster and stabilize her fluctuating Speed Force connection for longer durations. But once the effects of this device could no longer help her, she converted it into a Quantum splicer for Firestorm.

Wheelchair: After the particle accelerator exploded, Natalie pretended that she became paralyzed in her legs to hide her identity from the team. In addition, a device was stored on the underside of the wheelchair that was charging her super speed which Cisco Ramon eventually discovered. After her identity was revealed to Team Flash, Natalie abandoned this wheelchair which is currently in S.T.A.R. Labs, although she temporarily used it again in S.T.A.R. Labs, possibly for sentimental reasons after re-appearing on Earth-52.

Spear of Destiny: Natalie previously owned the Spear of Destiny, an ancient Biblical relic which was tainted by the blood of Jesus Christ, thus gaining tremendous reality warping divinely supernatural power. Sara Lance used the object's power to depower itself, thus; rendering the holy item useless.

She had the following new multiverse equipment;

Slipstream suit: Natalie wears a protective suit while acting as the Slipstream in order to hide her identity from her victims and to withstand extreme force. The first is version is cyan with purple highlights and fades to black on the arms and legs, while the second is more entirely cyan with purple boots.

Appearance-stealing cord: Natalie used this device to become Wendy Stryker as she did in the original multiverse. It can also be assumed that this device is what allowed Natalie to wear Nora's face when she framed XS in 3021.

Speed Force Boosting Transmitter: The Speed Force transmitter is a device that transmits the Speed Force in a speedster's system to another, developed by Wendy Stryker. It charges Natalie Thawne's super speed, and boosts it.

She had the following former equipment;

Time manipulator: After being revived and stripped of her powers by the Time Wraiths, Natalie was given a watch-like device that both trapped her in a perpetual loop of the same day and allowed her to freeze time in order to protect the fixed point of Archduke Franz Ferdinand's assassination.

She had the following alternate timeline equipment;

XS suit: When Natalie acted as XS in the Reverse-Flashpoint timeline, she wore Nora's purple and cyan XS suit.

She sped off towards the 30th century.

In the 30th century....

Nora and Naomi then met Tula Marius. Tula Marius was an Atlantean. Her codename was Aquagirl. Tula resembled a caucasian teenager with ruddy hair, aquamarine eyes and a slender build. Her hair was worn in a pixie cut with longer bangs framing her face. She was 5 feet 5 inches tall, and 119 lbs.

She wore a skintight, light yellow tank-top that revealed her midriff, with aquamarine hemming in a pattern resembling a low neckline and around the edges. Around her waist she wore a short sarong-like cloth fastened with a ring with the end of the cloth hanging to her front. On her forearms were light yellow, short, fingerless, formal gloves while on her ankles and feet she wore what resemble light yellow yoga socks. She also wore an aquamarine choker around her neck.

She had the following powers and abilities;

Atlantean attributes: Atlanteans, although human, have through scientific and sorcerous means developed several abilities which allow them to live comfortably under the sea:

Underwater breathing: All Atlanteans are capable of surviving the aquatic atmosphere under the sea. Some accomplish this without the presence of visible gills.

Temperature resilience: Resistant to low temperatures and the effects of freezing, although notably hindered by high temperatures.

Durability: Dense flesh, although not invulnerable.

Strength: Ranging from undetected levels to super strength.

Atlantean sorcery: Tula studied in advanced classes at the Conservatory of Sorcery. She has skin icons which are not visible when not in use.

Hydrokinesis: Tula has the ability to manipulate water due to her teachings at the Conservatory of Sorcery.

Electricity generation: Tula can generate electricity and project it from her hands.

The Atlantean was standing and talking to a speedster named Jesse Chambers. Nora and Naomi met with Jesse Chambers.

Jesse Chambers was a speedster named Jesse Quick. Jesse had natural 34B breasts, and white skin. She was 5 feet 5 inches tall, 121 lbs, had a slim body, green eyes, and cropped dark brown hair. She had two tattoos, one on her wrist, and the other on her right elbow. Jesse also had a dIck as well. Her dick was currently flaccid, 9 inches in length. When hard, her dick was 12.5 inches long.

She had the following powers;

Speed Force connection/Meta-human physiology: Months after being hit by the second dark matter explosion which her father created, Jesse's DNA and physiology was altered, supercharging her cells and giving her access to the Speed Force. This augmentation enables her to properly use her powers.

Electrokinesis: Jesse is able to generate yellow electricity from her body; when moving fast enough. Seemingly learned from Barry, Jesse is also able to channel that build-up of energy and hurl it as lightning bolts. She was able to wield lightning constructs like swords, shurikens, and lassos.

Superhuman perception: While training with Barry, Jesse learned to take advantage of mental speed as much as her physical. Learning from experience that she was constantly read and adapt to the situation, Jesse is able to use her heightened thought processing to instantly react to incoming danger.

Superhuman durability: While not invulnerable, Jesse's body has become highly resilient, allowing her to survive without injury when she tripped and tumbled uncontrollably across the S.T.A.R. Labs particle accelerator during training. After being beaten down by super-strong gorillas from Gorilla City, she was quickly able to return to her feet.

Superhuman speed: While only having her powers for a short time, Jesse is able to move well over Mach 2 in speed. With her constant motion, she is even able to run up and across vertical surfaces for long durations. Wally described her as being 'almost as fast as Barry', who could move at over Mach 13 at that point.

Aerokinesis: By continuously running in a figure-eight fashion, Jesse was able to create a wind funnel able to cushion a tank from crushing Central City Hospital.

Interdimensional travel: By moving fast enough, Jesse can create a dimensional breach, enabling her to propel herself and others she brings with her through the anomaly to traverse to parallel dimensions. This notably allowed her to bring herself and her father to S.T.A.R. Labs speed cannon room on Earth-1 after only recently gaining her powers.

Superhuman stamina: Jesse stamina is enhanced as much as her natural speed, allowing her to continue running for prolonged periods of time without fatigue. Her stamina is even greater than that of Jay Garrick's, possibly because of her youth. However, Jessie's speed is not as durable as Barry's, since he was able to stay in Flashtime longer than her.

Bodily vibration: Eobard mistook Nora for Jesse when Barry and Nora phased into the Time Vault.

She had the following abilities;

Genius-level intellect/Expert scientist: Jesse is constantly noted for her sharp mind. She was able to graduate high school three years early and study five majors in college. Jesse seemed to excel in all her courses at school, allowing the impression that she could miss several classes and still keep up. Even before becoming a speedster, Jesse proved a vital part to Team Flash like her father; very insightful and intuitive, she has an instinctual knack for perceiving the nature of a situation and how to quickly best handle it. For example, Jesse was able to discern the nature of Griffin Grey's powers. Having learned from Barry Allen after becoming a speedster, Jesse can analyze every inch of an environment.
