Here's chapter two, hope you enjoy
I kept an eye on the news, in shop windows or people's houses. My story used to be a daily thing but now it just became a thing that would be on the local news every so often with a new apparent sighting or new fact found about my past life. I was looking in a shop window when I first heard of the scarlet speedster, I realised then that I wasn't alone. I still had to run but seeing glimpses of this hero always have me hope.
It was around 3 weeks later that I was walking down the road, cap on and trying to fit in as always. I heard screams ahead of me and started running towards the sound. Soon I turned a corner and saw people running out of the bank in terror. I snuck inside and saw a man with a ice gun trying to get to the money in the bank but a huge wave of people were between him and the thing he came here for.
I froze, not sure whether to let him kill all the people here and risk the chance of getting arrested for that night almost 10 months ago or run away, get lost in the crowd and continue running but end up with all these people dead. The man raised his gun and I knew I couldn't let this happen.
I lifted my hands and let the fire flow, stopping it as soon as it hit the gun, stopping the firing. The man turned to me and started taunting just like the night that my life fell apart. I stood my ground as he raised his gun and I stopped it a second time. Next he came closer and pushed me back before raising the gun for a third time. This time I couldn't stop the gun as I didn't gain my balance in time. Just as the gun was about to be shot a flash of lightning filled the area and I was pushed to the side. It was him, the scarlet speedster I had watched on the news. The man raised the gun again and I stopped it this time. The speedster took the opportunity to get everyone out before returning. Soon the man was doubt with for the time being and I rushed out the building but not before the speedster toon me to an alleyway to ask a few questions.
"Who are you?" I asked untrustingly
"I could ask you the same question" he replied. I wanted to trust him, the hero of central city but just wasn't sure if I could. I hoped for time but with my life that wasn't a possibility.
"I'm hope, hope Magaus, please I don't want to hurt anyone"
"Hope, please come with me, I have friends who can help you figure out your powers like they did me"
" I don't really have another choice, the police will be on me again like last time, it's the only chance I've got"
I was taken to this white building, it has science labs around the outside and a long desk with computers on it just in front of where I stood. A man in a wheelchair and a man with curly hair sat behind the computer and looked up as I entered.
" wait, who is this?" The man with the curly hair asked. The speedster explained what had happened in the bank and I told them my name. A girl with brown hair appeared behind me and introduced herself as Catlin snow. The others followed suit starting with the man with curly hair Cisco and then the man in the wheelchair dr wells, last came the speedster who interdicted himself as Barry Allen, also known as the flash. I was soon taken away by Catlin to do some tests and explain what had happened. I was thirteen and already my life had changed so much. I wished it would go back to normal but know I understood why. I asked where I would stay now, I couldn't go home as the police would look for me there and I could be on the run as the police were likely to put up a big amount of patrols as I had struck again. Soon it was made up that i would stay at star labs until something else could be sorted out. Barry worked for the police so he may b able to help clear my name so I could stay with him or Catlin without a problem. I suppose it was better than nothing.
