Chapter 2 Reverse Flash [Flashpoint POV: (does spit take) Reverse Flash?!]
Diana's POV [Flashpoint POV: This is the first time the story's in Diana's POV.]
"By me."
The minute I heard this...I turned my head to see a man...wearing a suit that looked very similar to Barry's. [Flashpoint POV: (does spit take) What?!]
When Barry saw him...he froze dead in his tracks.
He knew this man.
"Hello Barry", the man greeted.
"You", Barry said with dread in his voice. "What are you doing here?"
"I thought I'd come and pay you a visit", the man replied.
Barry just continued to stare at the man in fear.
I decided to step in.
"Who are you", I asked.
The man just smirked at me before looking at Barry.
"Tell them Barry", he commanded. "Tell them who I am!"
Barry took a deep breath...before saying something that shocked me.
"This is the man who...killed my mother."
Upon hearing this...I looked at Barry in shock.
"What", Bruce said in shock. "You're the one that killed Barry's mother. Why would you do that?"
"It's quite simple really", the man replied. "You see, in the future, I am Barry's archenemy."
Upon hearing this...Barry looked up in shock.
I guess he didn't even know about this.
"What", he said in shock.
"Yes", the man replied. "Since I couldn't kill you in my timeline, I decided to go back and kill you when you were young and weak! But at last, your dear mother decided to protect you. She really brought this on herself."
Upon hearing this...Barry looked at the man with a look of pure anger.
Using his powers...he pinned the man to a pillar.
"DON'T YOU EVER TALK ABOUT MY MOTHER LIKE THAT AGAIN!"
This caused me and the rest of the team to look at Barry in shock.
He was always so upbeat and happy. Seeing him this angry is something I had never seen before.
"Well well well", the man started. "Looks like I hit a nerve didn't I?"
Upon hearing this...Barry punched the man causing him to fall the ground.
"I am going to make you pay for what you did to my mother", he stated. "She didn't deserve what you did to her."
"No", the man admitted. "But you deserve what's about to happen to you."
Before Barry could react...the other villains grabbed him!
Then the man did something shocking.
He ran away with...the same speed as Barry's!
"He has the same powers as Barry", Victor said in shock.
"How is that even possible", Arther asked.
"Only one way to find out", Bruce replied before looking at Clark. "Superman! Get him!"
With that Clark went after the man.
"Everybody else", Bruce started. "Get those guys off of Barry!"
With that we went into battle.
Ten Minutes Later
The villains had been defeated and Clark had returned.
"Sorry Barry", he apologized. "I lost him."
Upon hearing this...Barry yelled and kicked one of the pillars!
Before any on us could say anything...he walked up to the villains.
"Alright", he said sternly. "Start talking! Tell me everything you know about that guy!"
"We're not telling you anything", Captain Boomerang stated.
Barry was about to do something, but I stopped him.
"I'll take it from here", I stated before wrapping my lasso around Captain Boomerang. "This lasso compels you to tell the truth. Now tell me everything you know about that man."
"He calls himself Reverse Flash."
"Reverse Flash", Barry asked in shock.
"Yeah", Captain Boomerang said. "He wanted our help in capturing you."
"But why now", Barry asked.
"Sorry mate", Captain Boomerang said. "He didn't tell us that."
"Dang it", Barry said in anger.
"Anything else", I asked.
"That's all I know love", Captain Boomerang replied. "By the way. Are you single?"
"Well that's enough", I stated before pulling my lasso away. [Flashpoint POV: Aaaand...serious moment over.]
Suddenly...Barry growled in anger.
"I can't believe it", he stated. "I now know more about the man who killed my mother, but not enough to take him down!"
"Yeah", Captain Boomerang said. "Things aren't looking so good for you mate."
Barry tried to hit Captain Boomerang...but I stopped him.
"So", Arther started. "What do we do with these bozos?"
"Don't worry", Bruce stated. "I'll have these guys memories altered so they don't know the Flash's true identity, then have them sent back to jail."
Upon hearing this...the villains started complaining.
"Quit your whining", Bruce commanded. "Superman, help me get these guys out of here."
With that Bruce and Clark started carrying the bad guys away.
I turned around to look at Barry in concern.
"Barry", I started. "Are you okay?"
"No Diana. I'm not okay at all."
Before I could do say anything else...Barry ran away!
"Barry", I called out.
"Should we go after him", Victor asked.
"Leave him", Arthur commanded. "Right now he probably just wants to be alone."
"But it isn't like Barry to act like this", I pointed out. "I'm really worried about him."
HotXbun: Poor Barry. Curse you Reverse Flash!
Challenge: Tell me what you think is going to make Barry feel better.
My Answer: Not a what. A who.
