Disclaimer: I do not own the Flash

So many of you read the previous version of this, that I don't think I need to explain much. I'm following the same time line, just adding and revising a bit. Thanks for being so supportive! Please review!

Prologue

Where should I begin? I'm abnormal. Not abnormal like I have a disorder or something else like that. I have powers. Super speed to be exact. I'm what people here in Central City call a metahuman. However, I did not get my powers the same way metas like the Flash and the others did. I inherited my powers-the next generation of meta. Half meta, half human. Confused? Let me explain.

My mom, Iris West-Allen, is normal, a human. My dad, Barry Allen, aka the Flash, is abnormal, a metahuman. Combined, you get me, Ruby Eliza Allen, half meta, half human. Sadly, because of my human half (thanks a lot Mom!) I only got half my dad's regenerative capabilities, plus his speed. Still, no complaints (would have been nice to have that full regenerative capability thing when I sprained my ankle *cough*MOM!*cough*).

Anyway, my friend, Aurum Edward Thawne, is the same as me. The next generation of meta, also with speed (we don't all get speed in case you were wondering). He got speed from his dad Eobard Thawne, aka the Reverse-Flash, and stopped short of full regenerative capabilities thanks to his mom Elizabeth Nolan-Thawne. Oh, um, you're probably wondering how the daughter of the Flash ended up being friends with the son of the Reverse-Flash. Long story that I'll get to later.

Now that I've introduced myself and told you a little bit about me, let's get to the point of this account. I am writing this in Aurum's appartment in the year 2033. I haven't always lived with Aurum, and the road to this point has been long and complicated. Let's go ahead and begin at the beginning, how all of this suffering and misery started...
