Catch Me If You Can
Hey guys and gals, welcome to a new Karry story of mine, keep in mind guys I haven't seen the Flash/Supergirl crossover episode yet so I have no doubt in my mind that this will heavily deviate from the episode itself and would've jumped a few episodes ahead where Zoom is already defeated and the Speed Force gave Barry Zooms speed.
In this Universe Wally and Jesse both have their powers fully developed and are training with Barry to master them.
Barry POV
Running through the streets of Central City was usually quiet, at a leisurely pace of 500 mph, normally I would be running a lot faster, but tonight I wasn't the only streak running down the streets.
Two other scarlet streaks flanked me on both sides, zigzagging from left to right in an attempt to knock each other off course
"Alright kids, settle down, we don't want you hitting a wall you can't phase through." I shouted at the two young speedsters through the comms in our suits.
"Yeah, Wally! It's not like you can hit me anyway, I am faster than you!" the female speedster teased.
"Hey that's not true Jesse! I bet I could get back to S.T.A.R labs faster than you!" the male speedster challenged.
"Now now guys don't get ahead of yourselves!" Before I could say anything else, my two trainees were gone in a flash of red.
"So that's what that feels like." Laughing to myself I ran at a much faster pace, still not my fastest, but quick enough to beat the punks back to our base of operations.
Everything as of late has been a blur, from things like rescuing Caitlin and Wally and Jesse getting their powers, to defeating Zoom and his evil Meta army.
After I was trapped in the Speed Force and had some quality time with the being or... beings that gave me my powers. They decided I was worthy to be given Hunters powers as well. Meaning I didn't need any Tachyon Device to run faster than both of them combined.
Making it there in less than a second was easy for me, I have mapped the whole city and in an Attosecond, I had the quickest route to the labs, I may have cheated and phased through a building or two but it was so worth it when I saw their faces when they appeared five seconds later.
"Whoa, Barry I know you're fast but there's fast and then there is YOU!" Wally walked past me tapping my shoulder as he struggles to get out of one of my spare suits.
"Can we also rethink these suits Bar? Reds not really my colour, plus this full mask is hell to take off!" Wally finally managed to wiggle his face out of the tight tri polymer mask.
"Yeah, and I don't really like these long legs, can we shorten mine? Like a pair of shorts? Shorter is still fine with mine!" Jesse just flashed out of her suit like I do all the time.
"Well, we can give you just an eye mask; maybe change the suit to yellow Wally! And Jesse if I told Cisco to make you anything shorter, Harry will kill me!" Wally was still struggling with his suit.
"No one would see me though, I move too fast for anyone to see." Jesse made a fair point bur unfortunately, Wally had to ruin it.
"There are still a couple people that can see you, Jess!" Wally waggled his, now free, eyebrows.
"Shut up West!" Jesse gave him a quick shoulder bump.
"Both of you be quiet; go do a couple hundred laps in the accelerator. I will join you soon." Both youngsters' shoulders slumped.
"Ugh, we have been running for hours, we aren't getting any faster!" Wally piped up out of annoyance.
"'Course you aren't with that attitude, you need to keep practicing, that's how I got my speed." As I made my way to the Cortex I could hear Caitlin telling the speedsters to be careful and Cisco egging them on telling them to go faster in the spirit of their competition.
"Hey guys, what speeds are they reaching?" I had been training them for weeks, they hadn't made any progress yet but today might be their lucky day.
"They are still only at a very slow pace compared to you, even before you got Zooms powers, vitals and everything else is almost identical to yours." Caitlin informed me.
"They are making good time for their new powers but you progressed a lot faster than them, they can only just be able to break the sound barrier" Cisco was watching the two icons whirl around the accelerator.
"I think I need to show them how a real speedster runs!" Without another word I was in the Accelerator with the other two, running at my yet unknown top speed.
I had been caught up training the other two that I had no time between the CCPD and home life to test my new speed in the Accelerator. I easily caught up to my younger protégées... and again... and again.
Before they could even make one lap I had made five, I was running so fast I couldn't feel my feet, I couldn't feel anything. All I could hear was my own thoughts in ecstasy with this new feeling of utter speed.
I had been enjoying my top speed for barely a minute when a voice finally broke through my thoughts.
"Dude, you are going faster than our monitors can pick up, all we can see is your emblem randomly appearing in places around the accelerator, Wally and Jesse are back here in the cortex, they could only see a streak and their eyes work just as fast as yours! You have broken Speed my friend, Congrats!" Cisco was just as excited as I was, I never even noticed when the two streaks left the accelerator, I was too caught up in the speed.
And that's when it happened, I was paying zero so that when a giant blue breach opened up, I ran straight into it, noticing nothing different until images of unfamiliar people and places started appearing in front of me, a sparkly green rock, a weird pod like thing that you would see in sci-fi, and a smooth red material fluttering in the wind.
I didn't dare stop running until I hit solid ground, I had learned you never want to stop in the Speed Force unless it is an emergency, otherwise the Speed Force will reject you and spit you out anywhere.
Looking around at my surroundings, it was just an empty field, with lush trees behind me and a large city skyline in the distance in front of me. Getting too ahead of myself I ran straight for the city, not taking in the presence of the person behind him.
I keep running to the side of the road as not to be seen by anyone. I'm definitely not back in the Accelerator so the Speed Force could've dropped me anywhere; I'm not going to take any chances in being spotted by any Metas or evil speedsters.
Running slow enough to not jump through anymore breaches I come across a billboard. Even though I could read it a hundred times before passing it, I still came to a skidding halt and read it over again without going at super speeds.
The sign read "Welcome to National City!" weird; I've seen enough maps to know that there isn't a big city called "National City" anywhere in the country.
I need to do some further reconnaissance about this city but before I could take another step, I was hoisted into the air at incredible speeds, even though we were going up at high speeds, everything was still in slow motion for me.
I could feel a pair of thin arms under my arms lifting me up high above the clouds. I could feel the presence of a humanoid figure pressed up against my back. Finally, as we went forward, I could see long blond hair whipping against my face.
There was also a faint scent of cinnamon and nutmeg. Finally me and my kidnapper broke through the clouds and landed on the tallest building in the city's skyline. The city was large and futuristic; a monorail weaved throughout the city of buildings of all different shapes and sizes.
I turned to stare down my kidnapper and got in a stance ready for a fight. That's when I saw her. A women floating in mid air, with knee length red boots, a matching red skirt, a golden belt dipping in a v at the centre of her skirt, she had a long sleeved blue top with an S of red, yellow and gold. But her eyes is the thing that caught my attention, her eyes were a sparkling blue that were accentuated by dark eyeliner. Her blonde hair framed her face in little ringlets cascading down her head.
"So what's your story? Fort Raz escapee? Alien jail warden? C'mon, you can speak can't you?" Her voice was firm and held a sense of power.
"Well, I am the Flash, you may have heard of me. Who are you? I would know if there was a Meta that could fly!" I looked over the edge of the building, doing calculations in my mind for the speed needed to run down the side of the building, if things came to that.
"I am Supergirl, I've never heard of you before either. Wait, I'm asking the questions, who are you?" The woman known as Supergirl seemed to be capable of flight and at least some measure of super strength because asks Caitlin, I'm not that light.
"Well now that would be telling, why not you tell me about yourself, I don't know, your powers, anyone you work with or for, maybe even your real name!"I asked out of hope, knowing it was a lost cause.
"Well aren't you a hopeful one! How about I make a counter offer, you tell me who you are and what you want so I don't have to knock you off this building!" She landed right in front of me, hands in fists and ready to swing.
"Yeah, I don't feel like either of those options are up my alley so I am just gonna go...?" I started walking away when she flew back in front of me, blocking my path.
"Do you think this is a joke? You are coming with me if you like it or not Leather man!" She reached out to grab me but I easily dodged it without my speed.
"C'mon, it's a tri polymer... you know what never mind. You have to catch me first!" Sticking around for a split second I saw two looks cross her face, one of confusion, another, a smile of confidence.
It's a shame I couldn't see the look of confusion on her face when I ran off in a bolt of Scarlet Lightning.
