Barry's POV
The last thing I remembered was the horror of the wormhole, the sinking feeling I got when the world became dark around me. And the pain. The pain of losing Iris West, the only person that I ever truly cared about.
Suddenly, the world became bright, and then I started hurtling toward the ground. Tall buildings whizzed by. I closed my eyes and I braced myself for the impact that would be the end of Barry Allen. Yet I was still alive...how was this even possible? I opened my eyes and found myself face to face with a maroon and gold metal suit, with, I'm guessing, a person inside.
"Hey, kid, are you ok?" I heard in a muffled sort of voice. I realized that it was the man behind the suit.
"Um... yeah, thanks," I replied, bewildered. I was still in shock.
"How did you get here? It looked kind of like the portal from the battle of New York," The suit guy wondered.
"New... what now?" I asked, confused. I had never heard of a New York.
"You have never heard of New York?" The man asked, astounded.
"Yeah?" I replied meekly.
"I'm Tony Stark, by the way," The man replied.
"Barry Allen," I replied back. He stuck out his hand, and I shook it.
"I fell through a wormhole," I explained, still confused on where I was.
"Oh," Tony said. He looked a little confused as well.
"Well, where do you live?" Tony asked.
"Central City," I replied.
"I have no idea where that is. Moving on!" Tony replied airily as we moved inside a skyscraper with a towering A on it.
"Since you came from a weird place and have no idea on how to get home, I figured you could crash here until you figure things out," Tony explained as we walked into an elevator. As we were walking to it, a bunch of people tried to get his attention, but he waved them off. He pushed a button that had the same style of A on it and the elevator smoothly escalated. (Good word, me! lol, jk)The elevator came to a stop and the doors opened, revealing a room with vaulted ceilings, huge windows, and a glamorous view of the city below. There was so much happening, it was waaay busier then Central City.
There were also people inside, there was a woman, a little older than me, with flaming red hair by her ears and a "don't mess with me" attitude. She was wearing a black suit made out of some sort of canvas.
The next was a dude with blond and brown hair. It was blonde at the top but kind of brown everywhere else. He looked around my age, as well. He had a triangle figure, muscular in the arms then thinner.
After that there was a dude with curly brown hair with spots of gray, about 40ish. He had glasses and looked like a scientist.
There was also another blonde dude, this one about 35, with a bow and was hanging from the ceiling supports.
The one with the bow dropped down, landed on his feet, and walked over to us.
"Who is this?" He asked.
"Barry Allen," I replied. We shook hands .
"Clint, otherwise known as Hawkeye," He replied back with.
"Oh, so you guys are superheroes too?" I asked as I looked at them.
"We sure are," Tony said.
"Well, most of us anyway..." The one with the curly brown hair said.
"I don't understand," I stated.
"Well, I turn into a giant green rage monster that I have no control over. I call him the other guy, everyone else calls him the Hulk," The curly hair guy replied back glumly.
"Cool!" I said. Everyone stared at me. "I mean, awful," I quickly fixed my mistake.
"Bruce Banner," The curly hair guy introduced himself. I guess he learned to forget his emotions.
"Barry Allen," I replied back.
Next the redhead came forward.
"Natasha Romanoff, otherwise known as Black Widow," She said, holding out her hand.
"Barry Allen," I replied back and we shook. (Do I have to introduce him to everyone? It sounds really weird... Oh, well.)
"Well, you already know my real name, but I'm also Iron Man," Tony said.
"And who are you?" Natasha butted in, "What's your superhero name?"
"Well, why don't I just show you?" I smirked. Then, I did what I do best. I ran.
Ok, guys! 708 words! That's a record long chapter for me! People have suggested that I make longer chapters, so here you go! : ) Don't worry, this won't be the longest, I'll have some 1,000+ words soon on other chapters. Well, have a fantastically amazing day everybody!
