Hey everyone! Here's the next chapter! I have decided to stick with these three stories for now. Once I get them half way I may start a new story, but for now these are what I have. I have a request however from you, my readers. As I am sure you are aware, it is a lot of work to transcribe these episodes, with no good ones online to copy and paste. If anyone knows anybody who has them in the format this is written I would much appreciate it. Leave a review or DM me to let me know. But for now, enjoy the story! I do not own Flash. DC and the CW do. All words like this are from the show, and are not my own. Enjoy!

Barry VO: To understand what I'm about to tell you, you need to do something first. You need to believe in the impossible.

Smiling, Iris nodded. "Of course Barry. If you believe it, I do. I may not understand what it is, but I'll believe you." Eddie looked at her, frowning. He knew they were close, but to believe the nonsense Allen sprouts?

Barry VO: Can you do that? Good. You see that red blur? That's me.

"WHAT!?" Iris, Eddie, and Singh shouted, looking at Barry. Meanwhile all of the newborn Team Flash sighed. Not even 2 days and the secret was already out.

"Yes it is. I only found out I could move that fast the day I woke up from the coma. I'd explain how, but I'm sure this show will."

Singh, still in shock, asked Barry to show them. Barry sped behind him, giving him a shock. Everyone who just now found out sat in shock, while Barry smirked and sat back down.

Barry VO: That too. There I'm again. My name is Barry Allen. I am the fastest man alive.

"Yeah I'd say." Eddie muttered.

14 YEARS AGO

[A young Barry is running away from bullies. They catch up with him and beat him up.]

Everyone in the room except for Barry frowns. Barry was a good kid, he didn't deserve bullies. Iris reaches out and holds his hand and gives it a squeeze.

Barry VO: My story is pretty simple. My whole life, I've been running. Usually from bullies. Sometimes I escape, sometimes I do not.

[At home, Barry's mother, Nora, patches him up.]

Barry, Joe, and Iris look down, tears in their eyes. The others figured out who it was, and looked down, feeling the pain Barry must be feeling at seeing his mom again.

Nora: Tell me what happened.

Barry: Those guys were picking on kids... just because they thought they weren't cool. It wasn't right.

"You are a good person Barry." Caitlin smiled at him, and Cisco clapped his hand in his shoulder. Iris smiles at them, she's happy to see Barry has good friends.

Nora: I know.

Barry: Guess I wasn't fast enough.

"Not then you weren't." Joe laughs.

Nora: You have such a good heart, Barry, and it's better to have a good heart than fast legs.

"Agreed." Singh commented. "Physical training helps cops, but if you don't have a good heart you may as well not be a cop."

[Barry's father, Henry, comes home from work.]

Once again Barry flinches, and Caitlin squeezes his hand again.

Henry: [closing the door] Hello? I'm home.

Nora: Barry got into a fight.

Henry: Oh yeah?

Nora: [smiling] And he won.

Henry: [also smiling] Way to go, slugger. Oh, and uh, no more fighting.

[He kisses Nora and she smiles at Barry, caressing his cheek.]

Captain Singh watches the scene, confused. This wasn't the Henry Allen he heard killed Nora Allen. This was the Henry Barry described. Maybe Barry was right. Maybe Henry is innocent.

[It is night, and there are two blurs in the living room: one yellow and one red. Barry wakes up sees the water rising in his fish tank. He goes downstairs.]

"What the heck is that!" Eddie says.

"That's what the cops told me was my imagination, even though I knew it was real." Barry answered, while Joe put his head down guilty.

Barry VO: But after that night, I was running from something much scarier.

Nora: [screaming] Henry! Henry!

Barry VO: Something I could never explain. Something impossible.

[Barry goes down to the living room. Red and yellow lightning surrounds Nora. She yells at Barry to get back and calls for Henry.]

Barry: Mom! Mom!

Nora: Barry, no! Get back!

Barry: Mom! Mom!

[The window shatters and Henry comes in.]

Everyone was watching in silence. Joe felt even more guilty, while Singh and Eddie watched in shock. Henry Allen is innocent. They both made a promise to themselves that after this he will be freed.

Henry: Nora!

Nora: Stay back!

Henry: Nora! Hold on! [to Barry] Run, Barry, run!

[Somehow Barry ends up on a road, far away from his house. He calls out for his mom and dad and starts running]

"Who saved you?" Iris asked.

"I don't know." Barry answers. "However I believe maybe there were two people there. One pulled me away while the other killed my mom.

[The camera pans to his feet, and then merges into todays Barry's feet. He is in a hurry. He bumps into people and apologises.]

Everyone laughs at Barry for his clumsiness as he blushes. Barry was happy though, he'd never be late again.

TODAY, CRIME SCENE

Chyre: Second robbery this week.

Joe: The teller ID'd Clyde Mardon as the shooter.

Chyre: What? Oh jeez, the Mardon brothers are back?

Everyone sighed. Caitlin and Cisco were annoyed because this guy nearly killed Barry with his tornado. Everyone else recognized this as the day STAR Labs exploded.

Singh: What do we got?

Joe: [hands a photograph to Singh] Perps took the bank, shot out the cameras and as a chaser killed the security guard over there [indicates dead body on the ground.] I got units kicking in doors of the Mardon brothers' associates.

"Good job Joe." Eddie complimented. He was glad Joe was his partner, he saved his ass many times in the past 9 months.

Singh: CSI been over it?

Joe: Uh, no.

Singh: Where's Allen?

"Sorry Captain." Barry apologizes.

"Why were you late anyway? I never got a straight answer out of you."

"I'm sure it will come up in here." Barry blushes.

[Barry knocks into someone, apologises and arrives at the crime scene.]

Barry: CSI, CSI.

Singh: ... cannot carry on the investigation without him.

Barry: Sorry I'm late, Captain Singh.

Singh: What was it this time, Mr Allen? Did you forget to set your alarm clock? Before you answer I should remind you the excuse you gave last time was car trouble. Wanna know why that was particularly memorable?

Barry: [nodding awkwardly] I do not own a car.

Caitlin, Cisco, Eddie, and Iris burst out laughing at that.

"You are such a bad liar Barry." Caitlin laughed. Iris commented that he always has been, even as a kid.

Joe: He was running an errand for me. [looks at Barry] Barry, did you get me what I asked for? [nodding to play along.]

"Thanks Dad." Iris told him. "Barry owes you one now."

"Oh he has payed that back." Joe smirked.

"I never believed either of you." Singh sighed. "But I knew I wouldn't get the real answer so I gave up."

Barry: Yeah, yeah. I did. [searches pockets.] I have it... right...here. [holds up chocolate bar wrapper.] I had a few bites of it.

Iris sighs. Clearly her dad is just as bad a liar. Cisco laughed again though.

[Joe takes the wrapper and nods towards the body. Barry gets up close and text appears on the screen, showing what he observes.]

"Damn Barry!" Joe commented. "Do you see that?"

"No I don't. I'm guessing that's just visualizing my observations."

The two scientists from STAR Labs nodded in appreciation of Barry's skills. That'll come in handy against the Meta-humans.

Barry: [smiling] Getaway car is a Mustang Shelby GT500. Shelbys have a rear super wide tyre specific to that model. Twelve inches with an asymmetrical thread.

[Joe smiles and writes it down. Barry notices something.]

Barry: There's something else. [takes a pen from Chyre's pocket and picks up something with it.] Faecal excrement. [puts it in an evidence bag.] Animal, I'd guess.

Iris cringes. "That's disgusting." She comments.

Chyre: My dad gave me that pen... before he died.

Barry: [awkwardly] Sorry.

Once again everyone except the cops laughed, typical Barry.

CCPD: BARRY'S LAB

[Barry pulls up Clyde Mardon's file. Iris walks in.]

Iris: Hey, I am ready to see this atom smasher... smashing.

"Partical Accelerator." Barry automatically corrected tv Iris. Everyone looks at him, amused. Cisco and Caitlin though realized now which day, and both stopped smiling. This was the day Ronnie died. This time Barry squeezed Caitlin's hand.

Caitlin blushed. She only ever felt these butterflies with Ronnie. Barry blushes as well, since they started watching he noticed Caitlin's beauty more, and started to realize Iris wasn't for him.

Barry: There was a shooting today. Your dad needs me to process some evidence, which means that I don't know if we'll be able to make it to S.T.A.R. Labs.

Iris: But seeing this thing turn on is like your dream. Your sad, little nerdy dream. [eats Barry's fries.] Besides, I cancelled a date for this.

Caitlin grins. Barry is lucky to have a friend like Iris.

Barry: Hands off my fries! Unbelievable.

Eddie laughed so much. Iris does the exact same thing to him.

Iris: I am stress-eating over my dissertation. We started selling cronuts at Jitters, I ate two today. If I don't graduate soon, I'm gonna be more muffin-top than woman.

Barry: You look amazing.

Caitlin glances at Iris. She was very pretty, much prettier than Caitlin. Barry was also comparing them. He realized he only felt that way toward Iris because she was always there for him. Barry actually found Caitlin much more attractive.

"You are actually more beautiful." Barry whispers to Caitlin, who blushes badly. Luckily, no one else realized.

[Iris rolls her eyes. Barry awkwardly goes in another direction as Iris picks up a magazine.]

Iris: What is so important about this particle accelerator anyway?

Barry: Harrison Wells work in Quantum Theory is light years ahead of anything they're doing at CERN.

Iris: You're doing that thing where you're not speaking English.

Barry: Okay. Imagine... [draws a dot on the board] that that dot is everything the human race has ever learned until this moment.

Iris: Does that include twerking?

"Unfortunately, yes." Cisco sighed.

Barry: [draws a circle with a circumference way wider than the dot] and that is everything we could learn from the particle accelerator. It's a whole new way of looking at physics. It will literally change the way that we think about everything.

Iris: [puts a hand on his shoulder] You've got to get yourself a girlfriend.

Barry blushes as he looks at Caitlin. Iris notices and grins. She nudges Cisco. Cisco looks at her, and then at the two blushing figures. He quitely tells Barry that he better make his move soon.

Joe: Hey, leave him alone. He's working.

Iris: [smiling] Hi, dad. [looks back at the computer] Your test thingy is done.

Barry: [after looking at the results] I think the Mardon brothers are hiding at a farm. The faecal matter I found on the street was cow manure which contains traces of oxytetracycline. It's an antibiotic. There are only four farms in the area that still use it in their feed. [hands Joe a paper] Bet you find a really sweet Shelby parked at one of them.

"That we did." Joe nodded.

Iris: Dad, seeing how Barry solved your poop problem, how about letting him go to S.T.A.R. Labs?

Joe: Fine, go.

Barry: Thank you, Joe!

[Iris and Barry excitedly leave.]

S.T.A.R. LABS

Iris: So, Barry, how was your trip? Did you find proof of the impossible in Starling City, or did you just make my dad mad for no reason? [laughing]

Singh let out a groan. Of course that's where Barry went. The city where a known serial killer roams the street at night. He was suddenly glad Barry wasn't good at fighting, the Arrow wouldn't ever mark him as a target.

Barry: Actually, while I was away I had a chance to think about... you know, relationships. How I'm not in one, and how you're not in one either. And you're my best friend, Iris.

Iris: You're mine, too. Why else would I be here?

Barry: That's not what I meant. What I meant-

Barry groans at himself and Caitlin turned to look at him. He tells her that they will talk about it later. However Caitlin can guess. He doesn't feel the same way about Iris as he once did. She blushes, knowing what was in his mind.

Caitlin couldn't help but compare Barry to Ronnie. And even in these couple days of knowing Barry, Caitlin already really likes him a lot. Besides Ronnie would want Caitlin to move on. Her mind made up, she sat back, with a grin. Barry Allen was going to be hers.

Iris: I know what you're gonna say, Barry.

Barry: I'm not sure you do.

Iris: Even though we pretty much grew up in the same house together, and we're kind of like brother and sister, because we're not brother and sister, it can get really weird and awkward. But I just want you to know that it shouldn't be awkward. There is nothing I want more than for you to meet the right person that totally loves and adores you for the amazing guy that you are.

Barry: [smiles but is obviously upset] Took the words right out of my mouth.

Eddie glares at Barry. He liked his girl. Then Eddie saw Barry looking at Caitlin, and stopped glaring. Barry had moved on. Iris sat there still oblivious to what Barry had meant.

Iris: [nudges him, smiling] Aww, aren't you glad I know you so well?

[Everyone starts clapping as Harrison Wells comes on the stage.]

Dr. Wells: Thank you. My name is Harrison Wells. Tonight, the future begins. The work my team and I will do here will change our understanding of physics. It will bring out advancements in power, advancements in medicine... Trust me, that future will be here faster than you think.

[Someone grabs Iris' bag and runs away. She nudges Barry.]

"Oh no!" Caitlin commented. "I hope you got it back."

Iris: No! Hey, my laptop! It's got my dissertation.

[Barry runs after him.]

Barry: Stop! [bumps into someone] I'm sorry! [goes around the corner and gets hit by the thief, causing him to fall down, he slowly gets up] Alright, kid, you don't have to do this alright? Just give me back my friend's bag and we'll call it even. Okay? [the kid hits him again, sending him back towards the wall. Iris comes.]

Iris: Barry!

[As the kid jumps over a wire fence, Eddie Thawne catches him.]

Eddie: Police! Freeze. Or do you want to find out the hard that you're not faster than a bullet?

"Thank you Eddie." Barry nods. "I wasn't fast enough."

"Not going to be an issue now though, huh" Eddie joked.

CCPD

[Barry is holding a napkin to his nose. Iris comes up to him.]

Iris: Who is that guy, and what is he so proud of? He only caught a mugger.

Barry: He's a transfer from Keystone, started a few weeks ago. Eddie Thawne.

Iris: Ohh, that's Detective Pretty Boy.

[Barry looks at her, confused.]

Iris: That's what my dad calls him. Says he actually keeps score when it comes to arrests. He's pretty, though.

Eddie and Iris blush. That was before they knew each other. And Iris clearly already liked Eddie. Well she was super annoyed, but thought he was cute. Eddie was happy Iris liked him as much as he likes her.

FARM

[Joe and Chyre pull up.]

Joe: This is the last farm on Barry's list.

Chyre: Look, I know the kid's smart but you said it yourself, sometimes he's chasing flying pigs.

Joe: Well, let's check it out anyway.

"Good thing we did too." Joe commented. "But then again maybe if we didn't go, Chyre wouldn't have died. After all Mardon survived the plane crash."

CCPD: BARRY'S LAB

[Barry walks inside, still holding a napkin to his nose. He notices the rain's leaking through the glass window. He turns on the news.]

News Reporter: I'm Linda Park, we're outside S.T.A.R. Labs despite the weather which only going to get worse. The torrential downpour has in no way affected the particle accelerator which is running smoothly according to S.T.A.R. Labs CEO, Harrison Wells.

"A hopeful call from someone who couldn't control what was going to happen." Cisco said. "It's terrible that the weight of everything fell onto his shoulders."

[Barry pulls up revealing newspaper cutouts of his Nora's death, connecting it to other events. Barry looks sadly at it.]

Joe looks at Barry sadly. He wishes he believed him before he found out about Barry's speed.

FARM

[Joe and Chyre are looking around with flashlights in hand. They see a car covered with a sheet. Joe lifts it up and we can see it's the car Barry described.]

Chyre: Woah.

Joe: Mardon.

[They hear gunshots and duck. Mardon tries to escape.]

Mardon: I've got a plane to catch.

Chyre: What the hell?

[Mardon shoots him. He falls. Joe shoots Mardon but misses. He gets in his plane.]

Barry, Joe, Eddie, and Singh looked down, remembering the good cop.

Joe: Chyre, hang in there.

[He checks Chyre's pulse and sees that he's gone. Mardon's in the sky.]

CCPD: BARRY'S LAB

Linda: Wait, we're now being told to evacuate the facility. The storm may have caused a malfunction in the primary cooling system. The officials are now trying to shut down the particle accelerator but so far have been unable to regain control of the-

[The connection gets cut. Barry looks up and sees an explosion at S.T.A.R. Labs.

Everyone was watching in silence, knowing what was about to happen.

FARM

The explosion hits the plane and it breaks apart. Joe watches in shock.]

CCPD: BARRY'S LAB

[Barry notices the liquid in the beakers rising, the same way it did on the night Nora died. The glass window shatters, sending electric bolts to his body. He lies unconscious, lightning coursing through his body.]

"Holy shit!" Everyone shouted. They knew what happened but didn't expect it to happen like that.

HOSPITAL

[Doctors are wheeling in an unconscious Barry who is wearing an oxygen mask, he's on a gurney.]

Doctor: What happened to him?

Paramedic: He was hit by lightning.

Another Paramedic: How's he still alive?

[They put him on an hospital bed.]

Doctor: Go. No heartbeat. CBC Chem 24. Flatline!

[Iris comes in.]

Nurse: You can't be in here!

Iris: [crying] I'm family!

Doctor: Charge to 200. Clear!

Iris: [crying] Barry! Barry!

[The doctors defibrillate him.]

"That was terrifying" Iris commented, tears in her eyes as she remembered the day, having thought she just lost Barry.

S.T.A.R. Labs (9 months later)

[It's dark and we see a hazy image of a woman, Caitlin Snow, and a man, Cisco Ramon.]

"Enter... Us!" Cisco clapped. "Glad to see ourselves again."

Caitlin: What are you doing?

Cisco: He likes this song.

Caitlin: How could you possibly know that?

Cisco: I checked his Facebook page. I mean, he can hear everything, right?

"Stalker alert." Barry laughed.

Caitlin: Auditory functions are the last sensory faculties to degenerate.

Cisco: [singing as Barry wakes up, scaring them] Oh my God!

"You scared the crap out of us dude." Cisco told Barry.

Barry: Where am I?

Caitlin: He's up.

Cisco: [into a speaker] Dr Wells, get down to the cortex, like, right now.

Caitlin: [checking up Barry] ... 110, pulse 120. Pupils equally reactive to light. [he tries to get up] Look at me. Look at me.

"Nice reflexes." Singh commented. "Doctors at hospitals take longer to react." Caitlin blushes.

Cisco: Hey, hey, hey. Woah, relax. Everything's okay, man. You're at S.T.A.R. Labs.

Barry: S.T.A.R. Labs... Who are you?

Cisco: I'm Cisco Ramon. She's Caitlin-Dr. Snow.

Caitlin: [holding up a cup] I need you to urinate in this.

"I think perhaps, you are being a little too much like busy bees for Barry's Newly awakened mind to handle Caitlin." Eddie comments.

Cisco: [taking it from her] Not this second.

Barry: [trying to get away from them] What is happening? What is going on?

Cisco: You were struck by lightning, dude.

Barry: [looks at both of them and turns away, facing a reflective surface] Lightning... gave me abs?

Both females whistled, while Barry blushed. Even though Caitlin had seen him shirtless all the time, she still thought he was very good looking.

Caitlin: Your muscles should be atrophied but instead they're in a chronic and unexplained state of cellular regeneration.

Cisco: Come here, have a seat. [Barry sits] You were in a coma.

Barry: For how long?

[A voice says, 'Nine months'. Everyone turn around to see Dr. Wells, in a wheelchair, smiling at them.]

Dr. Wells: Welcome back, Mr. Allen. We have a lot to discuss.

"Remind me to thank Dr Wells for taking care of you Barry." Iris tells him, and then turns to Caitlin and Cisco. "Also thank you guys."

"Anytime." Cisco grins.

[Barry and Dr.Wells are walking down a corridor.]

Barry: It's hard to believe I'm here. I have always wanted to meet you face-to-face.

Dr. Wells: Yeah? You surely went to great lengths to do it. S.T.A.R. Labs has not been operational since FEMA categorised us a class four hazardous location. Seventeen people died that night, many more were injured.

"That was an extremely busy night." Singh commented.

[Camera pans over to an empty cage with a nametag 'GRODD'. They both stand on a balcony overlooking the destroyed particle accelerator.]

Dr. Wells: Myself among them.

Barry: What happened?

Dr. Wells: Nine months ago, the particle accelerator went online exactly as planned. For 45 minutes I had achieved my life's dream, and then... there was an anomaly. The electron volts became unmeasurable, the ring under us popped. Energy from that detonation was thrown into the sky, and that in turn, seeded a storm cloud-

Barry: That created a lightning bolt... that struck me.

"Damn." Joe said. "Ignoring what it caused, that sounds very impressive."

Dr. Wells: That's right. I was recovering myself, when I heard about you.

[Flashback to the hospital.]

Dr. Wells VO: The hospital was undergoing unexplainable power outages every time you were going into cardiac arrest, which was actually a misdiagnosis, because, you see, you weren't flatlining, Barry. Your heartbeat was moving too fast for the EKG to register it.

"Well now we know why that was." Caitlin grinned.

[Current Dr. Wells with Barry coming back to the Cortex.]

Dr. Wells: Now, I'm not the most popular person in town these days, but Detective West and his daughter gave me permission to bring you here where we were able to stabilise you.

Barry: Iris?

Dr. Wells: Iris, yes. She came to see you quite often.

Caitlin: She talks a lot.

Cisco: Also, she's hot.

Cisco blushes in embarrassment as Iris pats him on the back, laughing.

Barry: I need to go.

Caitlin: No, you can't.

Dr. Wells: No, no, no. Caitlin's right. Now that you're awake we need to do more tests. You're still going through changes even we don't know.

Barry: I'm fine, really. I feel normal. Thank you for saving my life.

"Not a good idea Allen." Singh shakes his head.

[He leaves.]

Caitlin: Really?

[Barry comes back.]

Barry: Can I keep the sweatshirt?

Dr. Wells: Yeah, keep the sweatshirt.

Barry: Okay.

CC JITTERS:

[Iris is filling coffee for customers. She looks up and sees Barry come in, smiling. She runs over and hugs him.]

"One of the happiest moments of my life." Iris smiles.

Iris: Oh my God... You're awake! Why didn't S.T.A.R. Labs call us?

Barry: I just woke up.

Iris: Should you even be on your feet?

"Probably not." Caitlin says. Iris glares at Barry for moving too quickly.

Barry: Iris, I'm okay!

[Iris doesn't look convinced.]

Iris: I watched you die, Barry. You kept dying, your heart kept stopping.

"Yes, now I know." Iris rolls her eyes, as Cisco was about to comment that it was the opposite of stopping."

[He puts her hand on his chest.]

Barry: [smiling] It's still beating.

Iris: It feels really fast.

[A server knocks into someone and drops her tray. Barry sees it happening in slow motion. Iris turns around.]

"Damn so that's what it looks like?" Caitlin gasped, her eyes wide. "That's amazing."

Iris: Are you okay, Tracy?

Tracy: [mopping up the spill] Yeah.

[Barry is in shock but smiles when Iris turns around.]

Iris: My dad is gonna be so happy to see you. Let me get my stuff, okay? I'll be right back.

[Iris leaves and Barry's face morphs into shock again.]

GOLD CITY BANK

[A woman signs a check and hands it to a worker.]

Worker: Thank you.

[The woman leaves and a man comes up. He's wearing a hat and his face is obscured.]

"Mardon." Every single person in the room growls.

Woman: How can I help you today? [he hands her a piece of paper, she reads off it] 'This is a robbery.' Is this supposed to be a joke?

[The man shows his face, it's Clyde Mardon.]

Mardon: You tell me.

[He lifts his arms and the glass ceiling breaks. Citizens start screaming.]

Eddie, Iris, and Singh watch in shock. They did not know what happened with him, so where shocked

CCPD:

Joe: [hugging Barry] Ah, you scared the hell out of us, kid.

Male Officer: Yeah, that was quite the nap you took there, baby face. And you still look 12.

Everyone chuckles. He did look young for his age. Though Caitlin thought he looked hot.

[Barry chuckles.]

Joe: You look okay. Are you really?

Barry: Yeah.

Female Officer: Detective West, we've got a 550 in progress at Gold City Bank. Two dead. Storm's really picking up on the south side. I'd grab rain gear.

Joe: Sorry, Barry. Gotta run.

Barry: Do you need my help?

Joe: No, you take it easy. There'll be plenty for you to do once you settle in. Let's go, partner!

[Eddie comes up.]

Eddie: Hey, Allen, glad to see you.

Barry: Thanks, Eddie.

Eddie: Hey, Iris.

Iris: Detective, you should go. My dad doesn't like to be kept waiting.

Iris frowns. She hates keeping the relationship a secret but her dad would get angry. Shit I hope this show doesn't show me and Eddie kissing.

[Eddie smiles awkwardly and pats Barry's arm.]

Eddie: Glad you're back.

[Barry smiles and notices a photo of Chyre in the 'Never Forgotten' shelf. He frowns and goes to look at it.]

Iris: The night of the explosion, Clyde Mardon shot and killed Chyre. Mardon and his brother died trying to escape, their plane crashed.

Everyone looks down in silence for the fallen officer.

Male Officer: Iris! Got a minute?

Another Officer: Hey, Barry. Good to see you.

[Barry smiles back and sees the prisoner they're registering grabbing for the gun. Barry speeds over there and knocks him down and the officers grab him. Barry is in shock.]

"I remember that." Singh commented. "He had no idea what happened. He just thought that the prisoner was struggling. Thank god you stopped him from grabbing that gun."

Prisoner: Screw you!

Iris: You okay?

Barry: I'm fine. I-I just need some air. I'll call you tonight, all right?

[Barry leaves and Iris looks at him in confusion. He goes to an alley near CCPD. He looks around and lifts his arm into the screen. We see it vibrating at an extremely fast speed.]

"I knew you were acting strange, but I couldn't guess why." Iris said, thinking about what happened just a few days ago.

Barry: What's happening to me?

[He somehow runs forward very fast, and stops right before he hits the wall. He looks around and does it again, crashing into a car. He steps back and sees the whole length of the alley. He checks around to see if anyone is there, and starts running while screaming. He cannot stop, and speeds into a garbage truck. The confused garbage man looks inside and Barry sits up, smiling.]

"I wish I could move like that." Cisco sighed in fake jealousy.

Barry: Awesome.

FERRIS AIR TESTING FACILITY

[Caitlin, Cisco and Dr. Wells have set up an area so that Barry can test his speed.]

Caitlin: You don't really believe he can run that fast, do you?

Dr. Wells: Well, I believe anything is possible and in a few minutes, maybe you will too.

Joe's eyes narrowed, as did Singh. Why was he the only one not being surprised.

Cisco: How's it fit?

Barry: [steps out from the trailer in a skin-tight outfit, running shoes, goggles and helmet] It's a little snug.

Everyone who wasn't there laughed so hard, that had they been drinking, everyone would have spit it out.

Cisco: At least you'll be moving so fast no one will see you. See, you thought your world was slowing down, but it wasn't. You were moving so fast, it only looked like everyone else was standing still. Dr. Wells will be monitoring your energy output, and Caitlin, your vitals.

Barry: What do you do?

Cisco: [grinning] I make the toys, man. [he holds up a something with a lightning bolt on it] Check it. This is a two-way headset with a camera I modified, typically designed to combat battlefield impulse noise, or in your case, potential sonic booms, which would be awesome.

"That would be really awesome." Barry grins. Maybe soon he will run that fast.

[He removes Barry's helmet and leaves. Caitlin comes up to him with a tablet in her hand. She fiddles with the suit. Barry stares at her.]

Caitlin: What?

Barry: Nothing. I just noticed you don't smile too much.

Caitlin: My once promising career in bio-engineering is over, my boss is in a wheelchair for life, the explosion that put you in a coma also killed my fiance. So this blank expression kind of feels like the way to go.

Everyone who didn't know looked at her in sympathy. She waved it off, but Barry puts his arm around her and she snuggles in to him.

[She leaves.]

Dr. Wells: Mr. Allen, while I am extremely eager to determine your full range of abilities, I do caution restraint.

Barry: [nodding] Yeah.

[He kneels, getting ready to run. Cisco, who has a large grin on his face, stands behind him. Barry looks back to see if everyone is ready. Lightning flashes in his eyes and he runs. The force pushes everyone back and Cisco and Caitlin look at him in wonder.]

"Damn." Eddie voiced everyone's thoughts out loud.

Cisco: He just passed 200 miles per hour.

Caitlin: It's not possible.

[While running, Barry thinks back to the day his mom died. He loses focus and crashes. His wrist is bent at a weird angle.]

"Ow!" Singh cringes. "How is your wrist fixed? It shouldn't be fixed that quickly!"

Barry just smirks and leans back, motioning for the other two to be quiet about it too.

CCPD

Singh: What is all this?

Joe: Witnesses from the robbery at Gold City Bank. Perp made off with 200 grand, more or less.

Singh: Catch these guys.

"And I'm glad you did."

[Eddie is interviewing a witness.]

Witness: The windows blew in, it was like-like a hurricane. Everyone ran for cover.

Eddie: We're gonna have a sketch artist work with you, if you feel up to it.

[He leaves and talks to Joe.]

Eddie: Third robbery in a month where a freak storm precedes it. Sounds like those wide world of weird cases Barry's obsessed with.

"Sorry Barry." Eddie says apologetically.

Joe: He's not obsessed.

Eddie: Guess you haven't read his blog.

Joe: Security cameras at the bank?

Eddie: Apparently all shorted out.

Joe: Well, we got a bunch of witnesses here. They all have cellphones.

[A witness talks about what happened as Joe reviews the footage.]

Witness: The sky went black, and boom! Outside was inside. And it was like there was a thunderstorm in the bank.

The four who know about Mardon's powers frown. He really was powerful.

Joe: Suspect is driving a black Mustang partial plate 6-kilo-Charlie-3. Put out an APB.

Officer: Copy that.

S.T.A.R. Labs

Caitlin: It looks like you had a distal radius fracture.

Barry: Had?

Caitlin: It's healed. In three hours.

"How is that even possible?" Joe wonders.

Barry: How is that even possible?

Caitlin: We don't know. Yet.

Cisco: You really need to learn how to stop.

"Agreed." Iris nods.

Dr. Wells: What happened out there today? You were moving pretty well and something caused you to lose focus?

Barry: I started remembering something. [Dr.Wells silently tells him to elaborate.] When I was eleven my mother was murdered. [Cisco and Caitlin look at him with shock and sympathy.] It was late. A sound woke me up. I came downstairs and I saw what looked like a ball of lightning. Inside the lightning, there was a man. He killed my mom. They arrested my dad, he's still sitting in Iron Heights for her murder. Everyone, the cops, the shrinks, they all told me what I saw was impossible. But what if the man who killed my mom was like me?

The three detectives were saddened again, thinking of the fact that the CCPD was at fault for that miscarriage of justice.

Dr. Wells: Well, I think I can say unequivocally, you are one of a kind.

[Barry nods.]

CC JITTERS

[Iris walks out to talk to Eddie.]

Iris: Can I help you, Detective?

Eddie: You can stop acting like you can't stand me when your dad's around.

Iris: Aw, I like having a boyfriend who isn't shot to death.

[She kisses him and Barry watches from a distance. Iris sees him.]

"WHAT!" Joe shouts. "How can you guys date each other!?"

"Because we love each other." Iris shouts back. Eddie backs off, not wanting to get involved.

"Listen Joe." Barry steps in. "I know you are angry, but they do love each other. I can tell. They are right for each other."

Joe, knowing how Barry used to like Iris, and seeing that he truly believed it, Joe calmed down.

"I don't approve. But I won't be angry." Joe tells them, and he sits back down.

ON THE ROAD

[Iris and Barry are walking.]

Iris: You can't tell my dad. He doesn't know about me and Eddie.

Barry: It doesn't seem like anyone's in on the secret.

Iris: I was gonna tell you. When you were in the hospital, Eddie covered my father's shifts so we could both be with you. I thanked him with a cup of coffee, and things just kind of... happened. And it's good.

Joe shakes his head, at the very least that was a reasonable way to start dating.

Barry: Dating your partner's daughter, isn't that against department regulations?

Iris: Why are you so upset?

"Yeah why were you upset?" Iris questions.

"Because he liked you Iris. As more than a friend." Cisco comments, while Barry looks at him betrayed. Iris looks at Barry in shock.

"Really?" She asks. Barry just nods in response. Iris then turned back to Cisco. "Wait. You said Liked." Turning back to Barry, she asked "what changed? It wasn't long since this happened."

Joe answers, "because he's realized he likes a different girl."

Iris looks at Barry and smiles. "I knew it. Barry the secrets out, you may as well ask her."

Barry blushes but Caitlin does as well. Without even saying a word both got the message across they wanted to send, and Barry turns to Iris.

"We are a couple now." Barry blushes. Caitlin can't help herself and kisses Barry quickly. Both blush severely and Iris sits down, happy.

[Tires screeching]

Barry: I just don't like having to lie to your dad, you know?

[Siren wails. A police car is spinning towards the two. Barry pushes the two of them out of the way. The Police car hits a dumpster and the black car drives away. Barry stands up and speeds off after it.]

Iris: Barry?

Joe starts muttering about Barry being a hero too much.

ON THE HIGHWAY

[Barry speeds past cars. He looked at the black car and somehow speeds inside of it. Glass shattering. Mardon goes to pull out a gun. Barry grabs the wheel making the car spin and flip upside down]

"Holy shit!" Cisco shouts. "That's badass!"

[Car horn blows. Barry opens the car door and looked in front of him to see Mardon walking away.]

Barry: Hey! Mardon!

This time it was Iris and Singh that muttered about Barry being stupid and brave.

[Tires screeching. Mardon summons fog and he backs into it, disappearing. Horn honks and explosion goes off. Barry speeds out of the way of the incoming car. Later, paramedics are at the scene.]

Iris: That poor man. The way that fog came in, I have never seen anything like it.

"It was Mardon." Caitlin explained. "He's a Meta-human."

"Meta-human?" Eddie questions.

"It'll he explained soon."

Joe: Barry! Iris.

Iris: I'm all right, dad.

Joe: What the hell were you thinking having her out here?

Iris: No, no, no-

Joe: And I told you, when you see danger, you run the other way. You're not a cop.

"Well all they were doing was walking the street." Cisco comments. "And now Barry is faster than a bullet, I don't think you'll have an issue now."

"Anytime Barry or Iris is in danger I'll be worried. And I'd rather Barry not fight. But something tells me he still will." Joe tells him.

Iris: Because you wouldn't let me.

Joe: You're damn right.

Barry: Joe, I need to talk to you.

Joe: It can wait.

Barry: No, now. [The two walk away from Iris.] I know who did this. [Joe nods.] It's Clyde Mardon. I know everybody thinks he died in a plane crash after the S.T.A.R. Labs explosion, but he is alive. All right, something happened to him that night. I... I think he can control the weather. The recent robberies, they all happened during freak meteorological events. And when I just confronted Mardon, the street was instantly enveloped in fog. Of course you don't believe me. You never believe me.

"I'm sorry." Joe apologizes again.

Joe: Okay. You want to do this now? Out here? Fine. Mardon is dead. There is no controlling the weather, Barry. Just like there was no lightning storm in your house that night. It was your brain helping a scared little boy accept what he saw.

Barry: My dad did not murder my mother.

"I know that he didn't now. And we will free him." Joe tells Barry.

Joe: Yes, he did! Your dad killed your mother, Barry! I am sorry, son! But I knew it, the jury knew it, and now he's paying for what he did.

Iris: Dad, enough!

Joe: Uh-uh, Iris. I have done my best to take care of you since that night, and I have never asked for anything in return, not even a thank you, but what I do ask now is that you for once in your life see things as they are.

[Barry shakes his head and walks away.]

Eddie: You're not going to believe this. [He flipped around a piece of paper in his hands.] We got the eye witness sketch of the robber from the bank job. [It was a drawing of Clyde Mardon.] If I didn't know better, I'd say that's Clyde Mardon. [Eddie held up a picture of Mardon.] But that's impossible. He's dead, right?

"That is the moment I started questioning what I believed." Joe mentions, as did Eddie.

S.T.A.R LABS

[Barry busts into the room.]

Barry: I wasn't the only one affected by the Particle Accelerator Explosion, was I?

[Wells, Caitlin, and Cisco all glance at each other.]

Wells: We don't know for sure.

Barry: You said the city was safe, that there was no residual danger. But that's not true, so what really happened that night?

The people who didn't know leaned forward, curious.

Wells: Well... The Accelerator went active. We all felt like heroes, and then... [A grid image of the Accelerator appears on the screen.] It all went wrong. The dimensional barrier ruptured, unleashing unknown energies into our world. Anitmatter, Dark Energy, X-Elements-

Barry: Those are all theoretical.

Wells: And how theoretical are you? We mapped the dispersion throughout and around Central City. Though we have no way of knowing exactly what or... Who was exposed, we've been searching for other meta-humans like yourself.

All the non scientists shook their heads. They may not have understood what was being said, but it sounded bad. That means there are more than just Barry and Mardon.

Barry: "Meta-humans"?

Caitlin: That's what we're calling them.

Barry: I saw one today. He's a bank robber, and he can control the weather.

Cisco: This just keeps getting cooler.

Barry: This is not cool. All right? A man died. Mardon must have gotten his powers the same way I did. From the storm cloud. He's still out there. We have to stop him before he hurts anyone else.

"Agreed." Singh states.

[Barry goes to leave.]

Wells: Barry! [Barry stops.] That's a job for the police.

Barry: I work for the police.

Wells: As a forensic assistant.

"He's right you know." Singh comments.

Barry: You're responsible for this. For him.

Wells: What's important is you! Not me. I lost everything. I lost my company. I lost my reputation. I lost my freedom. And then you broke your arm, and it healed in three hours. Inside your body could be a map to a whole new world- Genetic therapies, vaccines, medicines, treasures buried deep within your cells and we cannot risk losing everything because you want to go and play hero! You're not a hero. You are just a young man who was struck by lightning.

"That was rude." Iris said, angry that Wells was yelling at her foster brother.

[Barry leaves, and then starts to run out of the city]

14 YEARS AGO

[Young Barry runs towards his house as cop cars surround the place. Henry Allen is being arrested.]

Henry: I didn't do this. I swear to god I didn't do this.

Barry: Dad! Why are they taking you?

Henry: Barry don't go in the house!

Barry: Where's mom?

Henry [to cops: What's going to happen to my son?

Barry: Dad!

Henry: Barry!

Barry: Dad!

Caitlin held Barry, knowing how hard this must be for him.

Henry [to Barry: Stay out of the house! Barry!

[Inside the house, Barry walks amongst the cops]

Cop #1: Joe, you know these people?

Joe: My daughter's best friends with their kid.

Cop #1: I'm sorry.

[Barry approaches a body under a blue sheet, he pulls it back to reveal Nora Allen's dead body.]

Caitlin sniffs up a tear, she couldn't imagine this happening. At least her dad vanished, but having to see the body, that would be terrifying.

Barry: Mom?

Joe [kneeling with Barry: Barry

Barry: MOM!

[Joe covers the body again]

PRESENT DAY, 5 MILES FROM STARLING CITY

[Barry skids to a halt at a sign, his jacket sparking. He rips off the jacket and glances at the sign, marking him 5 miles from Starling City. He then speeds back up.]

"WHAT!" Every person shouted at him. "Why are you going there? The vigilante may see you move!"

Barry mutters that he knows the Arrow, which causes everyone to freak out. Barry just nods at the tv.

Barrry [V.O.: So that's my story. I've spent my whole life searching for the impossible.

STARLING CITY ROOFTOP

Barry [to an unknown figure: Never imagining that I would become the impossible.

[Figure is revealed to be Oliver Queen, The Arrow]

"Holy shit!" Singh shouts as everyone else is in shock.

"You know Oliver Queen?" Iris asks, eyes undressing him. Singh, Joe, and Eddie wanted to go arrest him. Cisco was happy he finally knew, and Caitlin just held Barry's hand tighter.

Barry just sits there quietly, before telling everyone he would explain later.

Arrow: So why come to me? Something tells me you didn't just run 600 miles to say hi to a friend

Barry: All my life I've wanted to just do more, be more. And now I am. And the first chance I get to help someone, I screw up. What if Wells is right? What if I'm not a hero? What if I'm just some guy who was struck by lightning?

Arrow: I don't think that bolt of lightning struck you Barry. I think it chose you.

Joe sighed. He can't believe he is agreeing with a killer.

Barry: I'm just not sure I'm like you Oliver. I don't know if I can be some vigilante.

"And you won't be." Singh told him. "If you do good with your powers, you can inspire us to be better."

Arrow: You can be better. Because you can inspire people in a way that I never could. Watching over your city like a guardian angel. Making a difference... saving people... in a flash.

Singh's jaw drops. He just said almost the same thing as a criminal.

[Arrow turns around, putting on his mask]

Arrow: Take your own advice. Wear a mask.

[Barry smirks as Oliver jumps off the rooftop, launching an arrow that grapples to the next building over, and Oliver perches on the building.]

Barry: Cool!

[Barry speeds off]

Arrow: Cool!

"Both are really cool!" Cisco says, grinning ear to ear. "I wonder what tech that grappling hook arrow is made out of?"

S.T.A.R. LABS

Barry [To Caitlin and Cisco: I've been going over unsolved cases from the past nine months, and there's been a sharp increase in unexplained deaths and missing people. Your meta-humans have been busy. [noticing the guilty looks on their faces]. Now I'm not blaming you, I know you didn't mean for any of this to happen. I know you all lost something. But I need your help to catch Mardon, and anyone else out there like him. But I can't do it without you.

"Glad to know we are needed." Cisco smirks.

Cisco [smirking with a thoughtful expression: If we're going to do this, I have something that might help.

[In a new room, Cisco turns around a table with a mannequin on it. A red suit is on the mannequin.]

"That is badass." Iris says.

Cisco: Something I've been playing with. Designed to replace the turnouts firefighters traditionally wear. I thought if STAR Labs did something nice for the community, maybe people wouldn't be so mad at Dr Wells anymore.

"Do you have any spares?" Singh asks Cisco.

"No, but I can make another one."

"Good. Because our fire brigade will definitely find use out of that."

Barry: How is it going to help me?

Cisco: It's made of a reinforced tri-polymer. It's heat and abrasive resistant, so it should withstand your moving at high velocity speeds. And it's aerodynamic design should help you maintain control. Plus it has built in sensors, so we can track your vitals and stay in contact with you from here.

"Yeah definitely make more for the firefighters, so they can use it. That will be very helpful." Joe tells him.

Barry [looking impressed: Thanks. Now how do we find Mardon?

Caitlin: I retasked STAR Labs satellite to track meteorological abnormalities over central City. We just got a ping, atmospheric pressure dropped 20 millibars in a matter of seconds. I've tracked it to a farm just west of the city.

"And so it begins." Joe says.

[Barry looks at the suit with a purpose.]

FARM

[Joe and Eddie get out of car]

Joe: I'm not saying Mardon is alive. But if he was this is the last place him and his brother his out. Let's go.

"Oh shit." Iris says. "That's where the tornado happened."

[guns out, Joe and Eddie head into the farm, to see Mardon kneeling there.]

Joe: Mardon? On your feet. Hands on your head.

Mardon: You got me. [Joe starts approaching, putting his gun away to cuff him] The night of the storm, after STAR Labs blew, after our plane went down, and I woke up on the ground alive, when I saw what I could do I understood. I am God.

"Shut the hell up!" Everyone said

Joe: Shut the hell up.

Barry smiles as everyone laughs that they all thought the same thing.

[Mardon stands up]

Eddie: Turn around.

[Mardon moves his fingers as fog comes in. He shoots the air back and knocks Eddie out]

"I guess I'll finally find out what happened." Eddie mentions.

Mardon: Do you think your guns can stop God?

Joe: Why in the hell would God need to rob banks?

Mardon: You're right. I've been thinking too small.

"Joe you know better." Singh sighs, cracking a smirk. "Never give bad guys ideas."

[The wind picks up as Mardon focuses. A tornado forms around him as the barn starts to fall apart. Joe grabs Eddie and runs out. The barn explodes, the force slamming the two against a car. The tornado starts to speed up as a red streak appears. A part of the barn comes flying at them and the red streak knocks it out of the way. A figure stands up, pulling of the gas mask]

Iris jumps over and hugs Barry.

"Thank you for saving him."

Cisco [through comms, silent to all but Barry: Barry, this things getting closer. Wind speeds are 200 miles per hour and increasing. Barry, can you hear me?

Barry: Yeah, loud and clear.

Cisco [in Star labs: If this keeps up it could become an F-5 tornado.

"That's no good." Singh mutters.

Barry: But it's headed towards the city! How do I stop it? Guys?

[Caitlin and Cisco glance at each other, unsure]

Barry: What If I unravel it?

Caitlin: How the hell are you going to do that?

Barry: I'll run around it in the opposite direction, cut off its legs.

Cisco: He'd have to clock 700 miles per hour to do that.

Joe shakes his head. He never thought Barry was moving that fast.

Caitlin: Your body may not be able to handle those speeds, you'll die.

Barry: I have to try.

Iris hits his shoulder over Cisco's shoulder. He was being too dumb and brave.

[Barry glances at Joe, who is looking at him, not able to tell it's Barry. Barry speeds towards the tornado, Joe getting up in shock. Barry starts running around the tornado, a circle of red lightning the only thing visible.]

Cisco [chuckling: The suits holding up.

Caitlin: But he's not.

Cisco: He can do it. I know he can do it.

Caitlin glares at Cisco for risking Barry's life, as she tighthens her grasp on Barry's hand.

[Mardon watches the blur from inside the tornado, locking on and summoning lightning to knock Barry away. Barry tumbles away]

Barry: It's too strong!

Mardon [strengthening the tornado: It's time to think big!

Wells [rolling to the STAR Lab computers where the comm is: You can do this, Barry. You were right. I am responsible for all of this. So many people have been hurt because of me, and when I looked at you all I saw was another potential victim of my hubris. And yes, I created this madness, but you Barry. You can stop it. You can do this. Now RUN. BARRY, RUN!

"That is a really good speech." Eddie states. "That would definitely make me go forward."

"Agreed." Singh nods.

[Barry speeds off with new motivation, faster than ever. Quickly he reaches the necessary speeds, causing Mardon to scream as he struggles to fight the opposing winds. Once Barry's winds match Mardon's the tornado unravels, leaving no sign of a tornado other than the wrecked barn around them.

Caitlin [nervous as Barry hasn't said anything: Barry?

Barry [mask down: Hey.

"When you said that I felt so much relief." Caitlin tells him. "I think that was the moment I realized I liked you more than a friend."

Mardon [gun pointed to Barry: I didn't think there was anyone else like me.

Barry: I'm not like you. You're a Murderer.

[Gunshots fire as Mardon collapses. Barry turns to see Joe with his gun out.

"Thank you again Joe." Barry smiles.

Caitlin [over comms: Barry!?

Barry: It's over. I'm okay.

[Cisco and Caitlin smile at Dr Wells, who grins. Joe collapses to his knees in front of Barry, shocked.]

"I was overwhelmed by everything. "A dead man alive who has weather powers and my son with super speed who came back from a coma." Joe tells Iris, who nods in agreement.

NEXT DAY, FARM.

[The Farm is now a crime scene. Joe and Barry lean against a cop car]

Joe: What you can do... It was the lightning bolt?

Barry: More Or less.

Joe: I'm sorry, Barry. I'm sorry I didn't believe you. And I called you crazy for chasing the impossible. But you really did see something that night your mom died. [Barry nods]. And your dad is innocent. [Barry looks at Joe] I need you to promise me something. [Joe moves in front of Barry]. I don't want you telling Iris about anything you can do, any of it. I want her safe. Promise me.

Barry [nodding: yeah.

"So if we weren't watching this, I wouldn't know?" Iris asks.

"Yeah." Joe tells her.

Iris shakes her head annoyed. But Joe won't get angry at her about her and Eddie, so she's keep quiet for now.

IRON HEIGHTS PRISION

[A door buzzes Henry Allen sits down in front of a phone, with Barry on the other side of bulletproof glass. Both father and son pick up the phone]

Henry: Hey Slugger

Barry [chuckles: you've been calling me that since I was 11. Funny thing is, I finally got into a fight today.

Henry [in disbelief: You just got out of a coma. I'm not sure you should be picking fights. Hey... did you win

"I agree with your dad." Joe tells Barry. "Stay out of fights."

Barry [both men smiling: Yeah, I did. [Barry grows serious] You didn't kill mom. You know I know that right?

Henry: You believing me is all I need.

Barry: You're not going to be in here much longer. Whoever killed mom... whatever killed her... I think I finally have a way to find them. To stop them.

Henry: Barry, we've talked about this. It's time to let it go. You have got to stop worrying about me, and live your life.

"Exactly what we've been telling you Barry." Iris says.

Barry: For the first time I feel like I finally can.

Barry [VO[Iris and Eddie kissing: The truth is, ever since the night my mom died, I've been stuck in one place. [Iris sees the news about the tornado] Missed out on a lot of things. But I'm different now. I've made some new friends. They're helping me find my way.

Caitlin [At Star Labs[To Cisco: Why is it shaped like a lightning bolt?

Cisco: So it's not boring.

[The suit Flash wore now has a gold lightning bolt on a new red velvet chest piece]

Everybody watching smiled in appreciation of how awesome the suit looks.

Barry [VO: To finally move forward. [Back To Henry] [Both men crying] You remember when you wanted me to change my name so I wouldn't have to deal with people knowing you're my dad? I'm glad they know. I'm so proud to be your son.

Henry: I love you, son.

Barry: I love you too, Dad.

[Barry puts his hand on the glass, and Henry does the same, their hands the closest they have been for 14 years]

Caitlin hugs Barry tight. She hopes he will take her to see his dad soon.

THE STREETS

Barry [VO: My name is Barry Allen, and I am the fastest man alive. [Barry is running through the streets, a guy on a scooter pulls in front of a taxi while on his phone] A friend recently gave me the idea for a new name. [as the cab hits the bike, Barry swoops the guy up and drops him off on the sidewalk]. And something tells me, it's going to catch on.

"The Flash." Iris states. "Oliver Queen have you that idea. I like it. You are now The Flash."

S.T.A.R. LABS

[Dr Wells is sitting in his wheelchair, facing a wall. He places his hand against the wall, and it opens up in a futuristic way, showing the way to a secret room]

"What the heck!?" Everyone, even Caitlin and Cisco shout.

"I know that building in and out, that room shouldn't exist." Cisco says nervously. Everyone's eyes narrow in suspicion.

[When inside with the door closed, Wells stands up from his wheelchair, and tosses his glasses onto it. ]

"He's lying!!!!" Caitlin yells. She trusted that man. And he's lying about him being paralyzed. Why? Everyone else who knows him is equally betrayed.

[He walks towards a white console towards the far side of the room, and waves his hand over it. A newspaper hologram appears: FLASH MISSING: VANISHES IN CRISIS, with the time stamp above revealing the date APRIL 25, 2024]

Everyone sat there in silence. No one knew what to say. He's from the future. That was enough said. Who is Wells? What is this crisis? Why does Barry go missing? What is going on!?

Hope you enjoyed the chapter everyone! I certainly enjoyed writing it! Don't forget to read, review, and follow! Have a good night everyone.
