Title: Reverse of Everything You Stand For
Authors Note: Hi all its me TheInferno. I have returned for a second fic. This will be a continuation of my last story, Return of the Reverse Flash, which itself was for the MillmaVerse challenge but I am continuing the story in my own way. This will not be a standalone and hopefully I will be able to update it. So without further ado enjoy.
Chapter 1: And You Will Wear Your Sins on Your Skin
Prologue
Every story has a beginning and an ending. Some have bad beginnings with good endings like those of Barry and Kara Allen who suffered tragedies but created a better life out of them. There are those that have a good beginning and a good ending such as that of their children who grew up in a loving household with a ginormous superfamily. Some people have good beginnings with bad endings, such as Eobard Thawne.
Eobard was born in the 24th century a technologically advanced period in history. He was born to a wealthy, high society family that were filled up with scientists and nobel prize winners. He was the smartest of all of them. His favorite study topic was on meta-humans, their creation in the 21st Century to his time. His favorite meta-human was the Flash.
The original superhero who started a legacy. When the Flash died there was never a body so it couldn't be studied but that wouldn't stop Eobard. Through several experiments he was able to figure out what combination of dark matter and chemical could connect DNA to the Speed Force.
He awoke a speedster and he loved it. He was a hero for years and even made a costume similar to the Flash. Then one day a thought popped into his."What if I was the Flash?"
He was sure of it, he had to have time traveled back in time and become a superhero. So he did. He raced through the Speed Force and ended up in the Flash museum. There he would come to learn something he wished he hadn't.
As he gazed through the archives on all speedsters the Reverse Flash peaked his interest. He wanted to learn of his future nemesis and see if he could learn any weaknesses. The very first words it said scarred him. Eobard Thawne.
All his dreams were dead because he was the bad guy. So he accepted his losses. If the world said he was a bad guy he would be a bad guy. He looked at the Flash statue and made a vow. "There is nothing I won't stop at to kill you. You ruined everything I ever worked for and because of you people will die. For every person you save, I will kill another. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction and I am yours. I will be the Reverse of everything you stand for. I am the Reverse Flash."
Inside the Speed Force (Present)
"AAARRRGGGHHH" Eobard screamed, he had been screaming for a literal eternity as time is different in the Speed Force. Since had tried to get the Get Out of Hell Free card and died at the hands of the Flash, both in the future and past, he had been sentenced to a Speed Force prison in which he was at every constant second being blasted by lightning.
Then the lightning stopped and the Speed Force appeared as Barry. "Why don't we stop for now, I have a proposition?" He said with Barry's mouth. Eobard hovered and listened, "WHAT INSTEAD OF LIGHTNING IT WILL BE KNIVES?" Barry just sighed, "No Eobard I mean a chance for retribution for the crimes you committed. I don't want to make you a Black Flash, I could, but maybe this will be a better solution."
Eobard pondered this; the Speed Force never made deals like this, it didn't have to. "What?" He asked. Barry smiled and continued, "There is an Earth in the Multiverse whose heroes died out years ago and so did their villains. They have been in relative peace but that's about to change. They are going to be attacked by an ever evolving army of cyborgs that will take over their world. That's what you must stop.
With his usual smugness Eibard just smirked and asked, "Oh yeah lets say I do save this Earth, what happens afterward?" And the Speed Force replied with a smug smirk as well, "Well, depending on how well you complete your job you will be rewarded greatly."
"Then I will do it."
The Speed Force just smiled and said, "Good but I need to make sure you can be controlled and not run havoc." And with that being said the red lightning returned, worse than before. Eobard screamed and yelled as the lightning etched a suit onto his skin. It spread across his whole body, even his face where a cowl was shaped.
When it was finally over Eobard looked at himself and saw red everywhere. The Speed Force opened a breach and then told him, "Your journey will now begin, Flash." As he was pushed through the breach.
