I am NOT the fastest man alive.

That title goes to Wally West, Kid Flash.

I work at STAR LABS helping my friends

Catch metahumans and when I'm not there

I'm working as a forensics scientist for the CCPD.

I know what you may be thinking, what happened to my speed?

I haven't used my speed in these past three months, not since

I let the woman I loved get murdered right before my eyes

And I wasn't fast enough to stop it.

I've stayed behind the scenes ever since,

I've decided it's the best for me.

I can't pretend to be the hero I don't deserve to be.

My name is Barry Allen,

And I WAS the Flash…
