Chapter One
Barry's POV
I ran through the streets of Central City. There was a bank robbery in progress, and I was speeding my way over to stop it. I arrived at the bank and zoomed inside. I glanced around to see the bank relatively empty. Two guards were unconscious on the floor, and the bank teller was collapsed by the desk.
"Miss, what happened here?" I asked, gently shaking the bank teller awake.
"Two metahumans attacked, one of them had ice powers, and the other had fire powers," the woman said.
"Metahumans? That sounds like Captain Cold and Heatwave to me," I said.
"That's impossible, the two were females," the woman said.
"We're also right behind you," a voice said. I whirled around to see a blast of ice swirling towards me. I barely got the bank teller and I out of the line of fire.
"Barry, what's happening in there?!" I heard Catlin shout through the communicator.
"Metahumans are attacking, can't talk," I said, dodging fire and ice blasts. The woman said that there were two of them, but there seemed to be only one, and she had powers of fire and ice.
"Wasn't there two of you?" I asked.
"There still is," the metahuman said.
"Huh?" I said. Suddenly, there was a bright flash of light. The light faded, and I was blind for a few seconds. I finally could see again, only to see a blast of ice flying right towards me. The blast hit me square in the chest, the ice spreading all over me, nearly encasing me in ice. I looked up and now saw two girls, both of them probably in their twenties.
"Barry!? What happened? Your vitals dropped suddenly," Caitlin said, sounding panicked.
"Metahuman… has ice… powers," I said, shivering. The ice was so cold that it burned, and I was starting to lose feeling in my limbs.
"Barry, we're on our way to thaw you out," I heard Cisco say. I vaguely heard the two metahumans arguing and I also wondered why they didn't kill me yet. One of the metahumans started walking towards me. She had fiery red hair (quite literally, her hair was on fire), and her eyes were a fierce amber color.
"Don't worry, I'm not gonna hurt you, I just want to try and thaw you out," the girl said, a small flame forming in her hands. She held the flame against the ice, slowly melting it.
"Move away from him!" I heard a familiar voice shout. I looked over to see Joe with his gun aimed at the fiery girl.
"Sir, I was only trying to melt the ice, my sister acted too rashly, none of this was supposed to happen," the fiery girl said, glaring at her sister. Her sister had silvery-white hair, and icy blue eyes. She reminded me way too much of Killer Frost from Earth Two.
"How can I trust you?" Joe asked.
"She's telling the truth, she-" I paused in horror to see that the ice sister had fired a blast straight at Joe! The fire sister shoved Joe out of the way just in time. She fired a blast of fire to counteract the ice.
"Clarissa? How could you just turn against me? You promised that you'd always help me!" the ice sister said.
"Stealing is one thing, but killing people? Celina, these powers, they've changed you," Clarissa said.
"Yeah, for the better," Celina said. I felt the temperature plummeted down, making me feel even colder than before.
"Please, let's talk this out, I'll thaw out the Flash, and then we can talk, I promise," Clarissa said.
"You've made enough promises!" Celina said. The air started swirling around her, and snow started to appear. Ice stalactites and stalagmites started to form all over the bank, and frost started forming on the bank windows. Celina was way worse than Killer Frost.
"Celina, what are you doing?!" Clarissa screamed over the howling wind. Suddenly, the ice I was trapped in melted, and I collapsed.
"Dude, are you alright?" Cisco asked. With all the commotion, I had barely noticed that Caitlin and Cisco had arrived.
"Not really," I said, the world around me fading.
"Let's get you outta here," Cisco said. I tried standing up, but failed miserably. Soon Joe was at my side, helping me get up. I barely registered getting in the Star Labs van. The world around me went to black.
A/N: Heyo! I know that I have like three other stories to write, but those are getting put on the back burner for right now. I'm now primarily focusing on Mirrored and this one, Speedster Down. I might randomly post a chapter of De-Turtleized or Things Change, but that's not likely at this point, I just need to take a break on those two stories for right now. Anyway, please review/follow/favorite! It makes me smile! Byee!
