Chapter 1 – The Fastest and Happiest man Alive
Quite a bit of time has passed since 'Heroes No More'. Hope you all like this spin off story!
"Ok, keep your elbow elevated. Keep your breathing even." Oliver was explaining to a young little girl how to shoot a bow properly.
She let go and actually hit the target.
"Mommy! Daddy! I hit it! I actually hit the target!" The little girl shouted excitedly.
"Well done sweetie!" Kara said, picking up her 4 year old daughter.
"Great job Nora! Now what do you tell Ollie for teaching you?" Barry asked, giving his daughter a kiss on the check.
Nora, very flimsily, floated to the ground and gave Oliver a hug. "Thanks Uncle Ollie." Nora said squeezing him as tight as she could.
"Anytime kid. It's getting kinda late. What do you say we go get some ice cream?" Ollie asked.
"Can we?" Nora asked with a big grin.
"If it's alright with your mother." Barry said looking at Kara.
"Yeah, let's go get some ice cream." Kara said as she took her husband's hand. Nora walked with Oliver.
Thinks have been going very well for the heroes. Raising Nora wasn't easy for the young parents, but they absolutely loved it. Nora showed signs of developing Kryptonian powers at the age of two. Since then, her powers have only gotten stronger. She can't fly yet, only float down, she has very weak freeze breathe, and so far no X-ray, heat vision, telescope vision, or microscope vision.
Nora has displayed SpeedForce abilities to. Last weekend, when Barry was chasing Nora around, he saw lightning flicker in her eyes and she was running way too fast for an 4 year old, and she had a small red lightning trail behind her.
As they entered the ice cream shop, Kara leaned her head on Barry's should, as they watched Nora and Ollie pick out their ice cream and eat it. They were mostly watching Nora, but seeing the way Oliver was with Nora was just too good not to watch.
After ice cream, Oliver went home to his wife. Laurel Queen. Barry, Kara, and Nora headed to their house in the Central City suburbs. It was a nice two floor, four bedroom house, with three bathrooms, a guest room, large dining and play room, a nice living room, and a basement.
"Go put Nora to bed?" Kara asked. Kara carried Nora home and she fell asleep in her arms, so she handed Nora to Barry
Barry took Nora up the stairs and put her in her bed and kissed her on the forehead and whispered "Goodnight sweetie." As he left the room and closed the door.
He went into his room and got in bed with Kara. "Come here." Kara said as she pulled Barry onto of herself and started to kiss him.
It was the next morning, and Barry was still asleep. Kara got up and put on one of Barry's Flash t-shirts. Today was Barry's birthday and Kara had a very big surprise for him.
She got the small wrapped box and got on top of Barry, who was starting to wake up.
"Morning beautiful." Barry said as he sat up and kissed her.
"Happy birthday." Kara said as she pulled back and held out her gift.
"What's this?" Barry asked.
"Just open it." Kara said as she giggled a little.
Barry opened it and saw what was inside of the box. "Are… are you serious?" Barry asked as he looked up with a huge smile on his face.
"Yep I'm abou-" Kara was cut off by Barry capturing her lips with his own. Barry dropped the box, which had pregnancy test in it. The test showed a positive sign.
"How far along are you?" Barry asked pulling back.
"well if you would let me finish, I'd tell you. I'm two months along. So, what do you think of your birthday present?" Kara asked.
"I love it, almost as much as I love you." Barry said pulling Kara in for another kiss. "Think we have time too-"
"Nope, she's coming down the hall, get dressed." Kara cut off Barry. Barry quickly got dressed as their daughter entered the room.
"Happy birthday daddy!" she yelled running into Barry's arms.
"Thank you Nora." Barry said and he gave Nora a kiss on the check.
"We should probably get ready, Cisco is throwing your party soon." Kara said, as she got on some pants.
"Mommy, why are you wearing daddy's shirt?" Nora asked.
At least she didn't walk in on us. Kara thoughts. "Because it's comfortable, you'll understand when you are old." Kara said.
"Hopefully she never understands" Barry mouthed at Kara making her giggle.
As they walked into S.T.A.R. Labs, everyone yelled "Happy birthday!" as Kara, Nora, and Barry walked in.
They started to open gifts and when Barry got to Oliver's gift, he started to laugh. He held up a frame with two of Oliver's arrows in it and they had blood on them.
"Are these the one's?" Barry asked.
"Yep" Oliver replied as he was chuckling.
"Why did you give him two framed arrows?" Kara asked.
"Oh that's right, we didn't know you yet when this happened," Barry said. "Basically, on the first day Oliver trained me, he told me he would shoot me with an arrow. I didn't believe him. He drew back an arrow and fired it at me as I ran towards him and caught the arrow he fired. But I didn't know he had to crossbows rigged to shoot me in the back. These are the two arrows he shot me with." Barry said holding up the arrows.
"Oh Barry was pissed as hell. He wouldn't talk to me for a week after that happened." Oliver said as he was still chucking.
'You know, it still hurts there when it rains." Barry said.
"Whiner" Oliver said back.
While they were all eating, Kara decided to tell everyone what her birthday gift to Barry was.
"Excuse me, can I have everyone's attention." Kara said standing up. "As many of you know, I already gave Barry my gift to him but most of you don't know what that gift is. Well, guess what? I'm pregnant." Kara said.
"Congrats… again" Cisco said giving Barry a hug and then Kara.
After the Party, since Nora was sleeping at Uncle Ollies and Aunt Laurels, Barry was carrying Kara home bridal style.
"So, how was your birthday?" Kara asked.
"Let's just say, I'm not only the fastest man alive, but I'm also the happiest man alive." Barry said, then he kissed Kara.
"I love you." Kara said after the kiss.
"Love you more."
So that was chapter 1 for the spin off story, let me know what you think! I will be taking a little break from writing to deal with a few real life issues, in other words my grades in school and a few personal issues. I won't be gone for too long though. Until the next one, peace.
