How could I have forgotten such an important detail as time travel.... Damn, I should have been so stupid. All I could think about was meta people, and I missed such a detail....
Okay, now I'm obligated to write down everything I remember about Flash, Arrow, and the other spin-offs. Absolutely everything, even the smallest details. If I make that mistake again, I can shoot myself in the head. Wow, my brain is working better, and I missed such a detail, what a nonsense, it's a real shame... It's the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to me.
Okay, self-deprecation won't do any good, my stupidity will be a lesson to me. Besides, on the plus side, it was going to happen anyway. Barry would have discovered this ability anyway, one way or another. I seem fine, except I don't understand the reason why I remember everything. For my body, time has changed, but for my mind... Hmm, maybe it has something to do with the fact that I was able to retain the memories of my past life. Well, that's a possibility. Well, it's pointless to think about such things at all, now it's time to prepare a new plan to capture the Weather Wizard. I'm not just going to let that bastard go, I need his powers, even in the past, even in the future....

It's worth a hurry, damn Barry's gonna grab Mardon soon enough, won't even let him do anything. his desire to save Central City will override common sense. Funny how he'll be willing to risk that same city when he decides to save his mother.
I quickly packed up and drove to the Weather Wizard's place of residence. Thanks to Joe West, I know exactly where to find this guy. There was no time to waste, I don't remember exactly when Barry grabbed him, but I'd better hurry.
When I arrived at the unremarkable hotel, I immediately entered the building. A few teleportations and I was in Mardon's room. He stood up startled and spoke:
«I didn't know there were more like me.
I grinned and said:
«I'm not like you... - Then I teleported behind his back and threw a powerful punch. Mardon tried to block, but what could his human strength do against mine?
Therefore.
*♪ BAM! ♪
I probably broke his arms and skull, but judging by his pulse he's still alive, which is good....
I don't know how Barry will react when he doesn't find Mardon here, but I don't really care. He's about to have a new problem with Snard, so he'll quickly forget about it.
I left no trace and quickly took off back to my base.

Weather Wizard was strapped to the operating table and was unconscious. I, as I always do, started pumping out his bone marrow from every possible place. When I was done, there was about as much fluid as I had gotten from Peekaboo.
«Well, not bad, I hope your abilities are decent. - I exhaled and drank it all down without wasting time.
Everything was normal for a few seconds, but I knew something was about to happen. So I retreated to the room prepared for my evolution, if you could call it that. It was covered in cellophane, so I wouldn't stain the floor and could clean up quickly.
As I undressed and lay on the cold floor, the marrow digestion process finally began. The pain in my head, the burning all over my body, and of course the grinding of my bones. I was used to it, so I just waited until I passed out. After a while, I did and fell into a dream....
I woke up with an unpleasant sensation, as I was covered in some kind of ooze. Yeah, it was that nasty discharge again... This time it was smaller and paler in color, but it still smelled the same. I quickly went to the shower and cleaned myself up. Then removed all the cellophane and disposed of it.
This time it was much easier, only the hunger would probably come sooner. After the first power appeared, from the Multiplex, I felt terribly hungry. This was because I hadn't eaten for a long time before and it took a lot of energy to evolve. It wasn't like that with Rust and Peekaboo, I was satiated when I absorbed their brains, so I didn't feel hunger right away. But after a few hours, it did. I think it'll be the same now, and I just ate yesterday, not pleasant....
Well, I'm going to check my new powers, but not here. I'll check my eyesight and other parameters later, they're not that important to me, but I need to check my superpowers. But since it's a weather ability, it should be tested somewhere in an open area.
I walked out of the house and jumped in my car, then headed out of town towards the woods. It had been almost a full day already, it was deep into the night. The evolution period was a little shorter than it had been since absorbing the Pickaboo's bone marrow. The intervals would probably get shorter each time.
When I arrived in the forest, I went to an open clearing and concentrated. The feeling was strange, I felt that I could somehow interact with the world, but I couldn't understand how.
After a couple minutes, I finally seemed to understand how this connection worked and could even interact with the wind. After a few more minutes, I was able to concentrate small icy chunks of hail in my hand with no problem. Of course they were much smaller than Mardon's, but even these were dangerous to others if used correctly. After practicing some more, I was able to gather the clouds in the sky, and then.....
*♪ Bzz-z-z ♪ ♪ Boom! ♪
The lightning struck me directly from the sky, and I felt a slight tingling sensation all over my body, but I withstood the charge calmly. I could manipulate it, direct it.....
*♪ BOOM! ♪
I aimed the lightning bolt at the tree, leaving a large black mark on it. It wasn't strong enough to burn it completely, but I could easily injure or even kill an ordinary person with it. There didn't seem to be any limits to my new power, the only thing I noticed was that my powers weren't as strong as Mardon's. Probably somewhere around his brother's level. But the advantage of the weather power was that it could be developed by establishing a stronger connection with the weather. That's probably why the elder Mardon had more power than his brother, he just had more time to train and develop it. If I do it right, I can reach his level and even surpass it. Don't forget that he almost drowned the entire Central City, those powers are really something. If you develop them properly, you can reach great heights. In the meantime, I'll practice, it's worth it to consolidate my knowledge....
