Title: New Attractions

Language: English

Disclaimer: I obviously don't own the Flash or I'd be starring in it as Barry's girlfriend/fiancée/wife, etc. I don't own The Vampire Diaries either :(... Yeah I know life sucks :(! Don't own the Arrow :(. Actually I don't own any TV series or I'd probably be directing/creating now instead of writing fanfiction.

Summary: Barry is in love with Iris. Then a new girl shows up, with secrets. Now he's confused. (I know there are loads of stories with this plot but please give it a chance :)! )

A/N: I'm up to date with The Flash but there may be some mistakes and it doesn't follow the series plot line according to the Superhero things...

Pairings: Barry/OC Barry/Iris Iris/Eddie and more. Give suggestions and/or prompts.

Rating: T for very suggestive language use and possible making out.

I'd like to just point out once again that Grant Gustin (sadly don't own :(! ) is freaking hot and his voice is addictive! I seriously can't get over his performances of Uptown Girl, Glad You Came and Smooth Criminal on Glee - All of which I don't own :( !

Ash Lightwood. Shadowhunter: Firstly can I just say how much I love your username?! Because I do! Thanks for the review and tbh I probably have too many fandoms so I start including them in my writing :D!

HuffelpufStudent: Your review literally made my day! It was great so thank you so much. Getting good reviews really inspires me!

WinterRain36: Don't worry MR will always be more powerful than the Flash, she has quite a few powers... I'm still indecisive about the speed thing, cause I kinda wanna let Barry have a little something too you know? Thanks for the review and being such a loyal reader!

Chapter 12 : The Ripper Comes To town

Barry's POV

I can't keep still. I don't know what's going on with Ashmi. Who was that guy? What was he talking about? I need to run. Maybe I should text Mystic Raven.

Barry: Hey :)

Mystic Raven: Hi :)

Barry: Are you busy tonight? I wanted to hang out.

Mystic Raven: I can't tonight.

Barry: How about Saturday night?

Mystic Raven: It's a date ;).

Barry goes to sleep with a smile on his face.

The next morning, he unlocks his phone to see a message from Ashmi.

Ashmi: I'm still feeling a bit sick so I spoke to the captain about some time off… don't have too much fun without me ;)

Barry: It's always more fun when you're there ;). I'll stop by later with some chicken soup x

Ashmi: It's a date ;)!

3rd Person POV

Barry gets ready and heads to work. "Allen we have a new case for you. It's all in the folder on your desk."

Barry goes up his lab and opens the folder and begins reading. The perpetrator is a guy in his late 20s, he completely drains people of blood and rips their heads off. The only real evidence left behind is the bodies of his victims. Any sort of witnesses doesn't seem to remember a thing. Barry goes over everything for the next few hours and he still hasn't figured out a thing.

Someone enters his office and hands him a phone. "There's a call for you Allen." Barry wonders who could be calling him. "Barry Allen, I hope you have a pen. Write down this number 093 4578953. When you're ready to take care of this ripper let me know." The call cuts.

The CCPD gets a tip off about the Ripper and Barry flashes to the scene but he's too late, the Ripper has left. Barry sees a man watching him and leaving through the shadows, so he follows him as the Flash. "Who are you? Did you do this?"

"No but I can take care of the monster that did," The man smirks. Barry's eyes widen in realisation. "Yes Barry I am the guy from earlier." "What do you mean by take care of it?" "I'm not going to kill it, relax," The guy rolls his eyes, "It's not even human. I just know how to stop it."

"Well how do I stop it?"

"You can't… but I can. It's what I was born to do. I just need your help."

"I can't help you. I don't want to hurt anyone."

"You'll change your mind Flash. You know how to contact me when you do." With that reply the man slinks off into the shadows and Barry can't help but feel that there's something familiar about him.

Later that day, Iris is walking to Jitters during her lunch break when she bumps into a very attractive square-jawed man. She falls and he offers a hand up with a very captivating smile gracing his features. She looks at his forest green eyes and high cheekbones that would make any girl swoon. "I am so sorry Miss?" "West, Iris West," She says unable to stop herself from giggling. They talk for a few more minutes until Iris notices a red spot on his shirt. He pulls on his jacket to cover the spot.

His grin widens manically. "I was really hoping you wouldn't notice," He says shooting her a look of pity, "I wanted us to have some fun before I sucked all the blood out of your hot little body." Iris freezes and he compels her not to scream. He flashes them to a nearby alley. "I'm sorry about this sweetheart." Iris hits the flash emergency button on her phone as Stefan advances on her and begins draining her blood.

Meanwhile

"The spell worked. He didn't recognise me at all." "That means he won't recognise Stefan either. Not until it's too late anyway."

Barry hears the flash emergency tone go off. He grabs his suit and heads to the address. He sees a man holding Iris's limp body with his face buried on her neck. Barry throws the guy off of her, grabs Iris and rushes her to the hospital. He goes back for the man who attacked Iris but the man is nowhere to be seen.

Barry heads to the hospital with Joe and the rest of Team Flash. "How is she?" "She's in critical condition. She's lost a lot of blood. I'm afraid that I must prepare you both for the worst." Joe drops to the floor, tears streaming down his face. Caitlin and Cisco comfort him while Harry goes to get him a coffee. Barry rages for the next hour until he makes a decision, a decision to call the man in the shadows.

"I'm ready."

"Good I'm outside the hospital."

Barry flashes outside and the man appears out of the shadows. "What exactly is the plan?"

"It's isn't human. This sword is a special weapon, it won't kill him, it'll just put him to sleep. I need your help to get close enough to him to use it on him. I just have one condition."

"What?" Barry gulps.

"Your partners can't find out about this. It's either just you and me or you can let him keep killing people. It's your choice."

"When you put it like that, it doesn't sound like much of a choice."

"It isn't. So deal?"

"Deal." Barry says and they shake hands.

The Next Day

Barry gets a call from the man in the shadows telling him to meet him at a warehouse on the outskirts of town. Barry enters the warehouse and sees the back of someone's head. He immediately recognises it as the man who attacked Iris.

"So you thought you could get away with it?" The man turns around and zooms towards him. The Flash dodges the punch and aims for the guy's stomach instead. The guy laughs and aims for the Flash's lower rib. A loud crunch is heard as his rib breaks. He stumbles backwards, grimacing through the pain. Their fight continues for a while, neither winning and neither willing to give up. Then the Flash begins running and throws a lightning bolt at him. The ripper is thrown to the ground and the man from the shadows stabs him in the heart with the Phoenix sword.

Meanwhile

Ashmi is at her apartment trying to research how to help but finding nothing. Suddenly she feels like her soul is being ripped apart. "Stefan" She whispers as her eyes widen and she teleports outside some warehouse. She rushes in and sees her brother's body on the floor. She falls to the floor beside him and cradles his head in her hands. She whispers some incantations, trying to give her brother life again.

"It won't work," Jeremy says. "Yes it will," Ashmi glares at him.

"He's not dead, or well undead," Jeremy chuckles, "He's in here." Jeremy points to the sword. "And it can be all yours."

"What do you want?"

"You know what I want! If you want to save your brother, then you'll have to save my sister first!" Jeremy says before walking out.

Barry watches the entire scene in shock, finally recognising Jeremy as the man in the shadows and Stefan as the ripper. He flashes over to Ashmi to help as she's crying over Stefan's body.

"I'm sorry," The Flash chokes out, tearing at the fact that he's caused her so much pain, "It's all my fault."

"It's okay. It's not like you're the reason my brother is dead."

"Actually I am. I'm so sorry I didn't kn-"

"You helped Jeremy?" She asks him in disbelief.

"Yes," He says trying to swallow the knot in his throat. "Stay away from me Barry." She looks at him one last time before teleporting away with Stefan's body. That's how Barry realizes Ashmi is Mystic Raven.

For the fastest man alive, he was pretty damn slow.
