[Ajin: Demi-human AU] The moment Uncle Barry found out that his nephew would always survive.
He didn't expect to die infront of Uncle Barry so early into his career
There had been a fire at an apartment complex, he had entered the farthest side from the fire as instructed by Uncle Barry. What he hadn't anticipated was that the fire had already spread enough for it to affect him as well.
With each apartment he managed to evacuate the more the fire spread. He had just evacuated the second last room when he heard it. A piece of the roof had caved in and the falling debris had made a sizeable gap in the floor. Between him and the last apartment.
Taking a couple of steps back, Wally took a runup and ran towards the gap, he just managed to land his feet on the other side before he needed to start running again. Every second count, and the civilians didn't have the benefit of superspeed.
He came up to the last door, since the fire had weakened the door he pried it open easily. Looking around the apartment for any signs of life, when he didn't find any he chose to contact Uncle Barry that the evacuation was successful.
"Hey Flash, so I'm done here on my end. I'll meet you outside."
"Alright Kid, be careful." Ending the call Wally prepared for the trip outside. What he wasn't prepared for was for the floor to collapse underneath him.
Falling through multiple floors Wally landed hard on top of debris. Groaning, he could feel the pain beginning with the adrenaline wearing off.
It's probably not that bad
Assessing his injuries Wally counted a couple of broken bones, wood piercing both his leg and abdomen and a severe concussion.
Ok, he might have played down his condition.
I can't let Uncle B see me like this.
A squelching sound as Wally lifted himself from the debris made him nauseous.
Groaning from the pain Wally managed to sit himself up.
Gripping his leg, he heaved it painfully out of the wood spike leaving splinters in the wound.
Just gotta do this before Uncle B arrives. See ya in a bit.
Gripping the wooden piece Wally pushed it with considerable force into his throat, enough to kill a person.
What he didn't account for was The Flash appearing right as he had pierced himself. He just managed to see Flash's silhouette before his vision went black.
Waking up without any residual pain was a welcoming feeling, the circumstances? Not much so.
Once he got himself oriented he could feel himself getting carried bridal style. Opening his eyes, he saw something that would stay with him forever. Even with the cowl on, he could still see the grief on his Uncles face and feel the sharp intakes of air.
Coughing, Wally signaled he was alive.
The speed at which The Flash looked down at his sidekick gave Wally himself whiplash
"Kid?" The softness of his made Wally's heartache.
"Don' worry 'bout me Uncle B, I'll always get back up." He gave a little laugh at his declaration.
The Flash cleared his throat before speaking.
"We'll talk about this when we get home and then you can explain everything. Just rest now."
Giving a last glance at his Uncle, Wally gave a small smile before falling asleep.
Hi again.
This is my first chapter to a oneshot collection I'm making, all having different AU's with Wally as the main character. This chapter might be continued at a later date, if I can expand on it. I'll be trying to update this collection regularly, but with exam season coming up, it'll probably end up like my previous story. Don't worry, it's not dead. But on a thinking stage right now, while I get myself up to speed with what I want.
