Chapter 3 of my Drive and Flash story and things are going to get interesting.
S.T.A.R Labs:
In the med bay, Iris was getting bandaged by Julian as he was begged by Joe to remove a bullet out of her shoulder. Iris rubbed her shoulder then felt a hand on her other shoulder and when she looked up, she saw it was Julian with a smile.
"Thanks for taking the bullet out, Julian." Thanked Iris. "I thought you were staying in London after the whole Savitar problem as well as the Caitlin dilemma." Julian nodded then sat down next to Iris.
"I did but I couldn't get Caitlin out of my head. Then I had a phone call from Captain Singh to take Barry's place as CSI." Informed Julian and Iris nodded. She knew in her heart that Barry would hate the fact that he was replaced but she also realized that Barry was spending more time with Krim and trying to locate Marlize and now she found out that Barry was staying in Star City to protect Caitlin.
"Well, Barry isn't here and Caitlin is missing. And everything has changed since you left: new and unbeatable enemies, new suits for two team members and me being married." Iris smiled then showing Julian the ring, Julian hugged Iris with a massive grin on his face as he was happy for his friend.
Star City:
Back in Star City, Black Siren was on a rampage until Drive, Chaser and Team Arrow showed up, then the problem got worse when Dinah and her team showed up. Rene pointed his guns at Oliver and Thea while Curtis and Dinah walked towards Earth-2 Laurel.
"Rene, stop this!" Oliver shouted as he took a step forward but Rene fired a shot at Oliver's foot.
"Sorry man but no can do!" Rene shouted, he pointed both guns back at the archers but then two purple bolts flew and hit the guns and Rene flew to the floor. "What was that?" Rene shouted as he pulled out two more pistols from his legs, he looked up to see a silver and purple armoured figure walk out of the shadows. "Who are you?" Rene asked, the hero stepped in front of the guns then looked at the archers.
"I got this. Go!" The hero shouted then he started fighting Rene while Oliver and Thea ran to stop Dinah and Curtis. Meanwhile, Barry was in his Type Speed form and hiding in the shadows and waiting for the signal. Dinah blasted Laurel into an oil tanker then Barry zoomed out of the shadows and knocked Dinah and Curtis on to the ground.
"Someone else you led into your lies, Oliver?" Dinah asked as she got up, Oliver shook his head then nodded at Drive. A small blue car racing towards them and slid into Drive's brace and shifted up; turning Drive Type Speed into the all new form of Drive Type Formula. Barry now had the speed and power of an F1 car with the big splitter on the front and a giant spoiler on his back as well as a jet engine; he was mainly blue and black with red and white checked stripes on the legs, also a yellow and black F1 styled helmet.
"Who are you and why are you with Oliver?" Questioned Curtis, Dinah was still looking at the figure as she span her staff around and Drive got ready for a fight. Dinah was about to scream when a huge purple blur flew past her and cut her staff, the blur handed into Chaser hand to reveal his weapon: a huge axe with a red and green light on the top like a zebra crossing would have.
"Drive, go! We'll handle them!" Chaser shouted and Drive nodded, he shifted the Formula three times then sped off with Black Siren in his arms while Chaser, Oliver and Thea fought Dinah, Curtis and Rene. "Why are you fighting each other? You're friends!" Chaser shouted as he was fighting Dinah who chuckled then spat in Chaser's face.
"Were! Until Oliver decided to betray us by spying on us because he thought we had a mole in the team!" Dinah shouted as she was about to hit Chaser but he kicked her batons away and rolled to the side. "But he only suspected us three, not anyone else." Dinah screamed as she fired her Canary Cry which sent Chaser flying into a truck. "Shoot the fuel!" Dinah shouted to Rene, he nodded as he kicked Oliver away then shot a bullet which flew but hit Thea as she jumped away from Curtis' punch.
"Speedy!" Oliver shouted, he ran over to his sister. Dinah and her team were shocked as they never wanted to hurt Thea, Chaser got up and grabbed his Shingou Axe then started fighting the three while Oliver held his sister. Oliver looked up in time for Drive's car, Tridoron, to arrive and both doors open then Drive stopped next to Oliver.
"Get inside! Me and Chase will handle them. Get Thea back to the bunker!" Drive ordered as he changed from Type Formula to Type Wild then joined Chase. Oliver placed Thea into the passenger seat then he sat in the driver's seat, Tridoron then raced off back towards the bunker while Drive and Chaser kept the others busy.
"They're gone, it's our tune to go!" Chaser called over as he kicked Rene and blocked a punch from Dinah, Drive nodded then a red Shift Car arrived and it had a solar panel on the roof. Barry inserted into the Shift Brace then flipped the lever up and down, the Wild tire flew off and a red and blue tire took its place.
"Tire Koukan! Burning Solar!" Barry pointed the wheel at the three which caused the Burning Solar tire to light up with a bright white light; blinding Dinah and the others for Barry and Chase to retreat.
Meanwhile:
Ralph was sat in his detective agency as he was going over some old case files he and Barry solved together. He was trying to figure out where Barry could be if he survived the explosion until someone kicked the door open, Ralph looked up to see that it was Marlize and she looked furious.
"I'm going to end you for killing Clifford!" Marlize shouted, she raised her left arm up to reveal it was covered in metal: she had Amulet's powers now. Marlize fired several metal bullets at Ralph but he dodged as he put on his Mach Driver.
"Let's settle this fair and square." Ralph smiled as he held up the Deadheat Shift Car, he flipped the Signal Bike inside the Shift Car and slid it into his open driver.
"Signal Bike/ Shift Car!" Ralph jumped over his desk and kicked Marlize who had just covered her entire body in metal. Ralph ran and jumped over her as he pushed down the driver then his entire body started glowing red and white with red electricity sparkling around him. "Rider! Deadheat!" Ralph transformed into Deadheat Mach and started fighting Marlize, they were fighting to their heart's content as they both wanted to win.
"Your husband wanted to reset the human race! He had to be stopped!" Ralph shouted, Marlize was now even more furious so she rapidly fired several metal darts at Ralph who was trying to block them.
"I'm going to take you for my husband to use your new powers." Marlize smiled but then she started to step back as Ralph was smoking with a huge amount of red electricity coming off him: causing the tire around his torso to explode and changing the black, white and red tire to become black and red.
"Let's see if you can take me on now!" Ralph shouted as he took out the Zenrin Shooter then ran towards Marlize as he wanted to end this fight and find his friend.
Star City:
Back at Arrow base, Felicity was messaging Cisco and giving him the news on Barry and Caitlin until she felt hands on her shoulders and when she turned her head, she saw that it was Oliver. He bent over and kissed his wife on the lips just Barry raced in and slipped on the floor. His Drive armour powered down then Barry and Krim started laughing out loud, everyone was confused until Barry stood up and dusted himself off. John and Chase walked over to Barry and tapped him on the shoulder, Barry and Krim stopped laughing then sat down on the stairs.
"What's so funny, Barr?" Asked John, Barry shook his head then placed Krim on the table next to him. The team was confused about what had just happened until Krim coughed then everyone looked in his direction.
"We made a detour to Central City and Barry saw Julian with Iris and heard every word that they said. Julian has taken Barry's place as CSI, now Barry thinks that Iris doesn't love him because when he spoke to her, she told him that she was busy." Krim explained; the team were feeling sorry for Barry, mainly Caitlin because she understood Barry's emotions. "And the reason why we were laughing was that I told Barry some jokes I knew and it kind of worked." Chase looked up at Caitlin who looked like she was thinking about something then watched as the doctor walked off and headed up the stairs, Chase nodded at Oliver then he walked off to watch Caitlin. Meanwhile, Barry had picked up Krim and the pair had walked off to go for a drive in Tridoron.
"Where is Chase going?" John asked, he looked at Oliver and Felicity as he walked towards them by the computers.
"Caitlin was kidnapped by DeVoe and we don't know if she still has Frost and her powers," Felicity started explaining, John nodded then he sat down opposite them. "Until we know if Caitlin still has her abilities, Chase said that he will be her bodyguard against DeVoe and any of his or her friends." Felicity explained, John and Oliver nodded then they started to check to see if S.T.A.R Labs had contacted them.
City streets:
Caitlin and Chase were wondering down the streets and heading towards the SCPD to talk with Dinah if they had any news about Marlize were almost there when something flew towards Caitlin but Chase caught it: the object was a whip and when Chase pulled it, the whip was attached to a Samuroid.
"A Samuroid?" Caitlin exclaimed as Chase was blocked the android's attacks to catch Caitlin. "Why does DeVoe want me?" Caitlin asked as Chase kicked the android's whip away.
"Get behind cover!" Chase shouted as he pulled out his driver, Caitlin nodded then ran away. Chase opened the driver then inserted the Signal Chaser bike as he kicked the Samuroid away.
"Signal Bike!" Chase bank flipped and landed next to Caitlin who was hiding behind a trash can. Chase looked up to see the Samuroid running towards them so he smacked down the top and activated the transformation. "Rider! Chaser!" Chase then transformed into Kamen Rider Chaser and also took out his Break Gunner as he ran towards the Samuroid.
"I won't allow you to take Caitlin!" Chase shouted, he then smacked the android in the chest with the gun followed by a kick to the chest. "Run for it!" Chase shouted as his two eye visors lit up; he had summoned his Ride Chaser. "Hold on, it will take you back to the hideout!" Chase shouted as the bike sent him his Shingou Axe, Caitlin nodded so she ran to the bike and got it then it took off: leaving Chase to fight the Samuroid.
"I will have Caitlin Snow." The Samuroid spoke, Chase could that the voice belonged to Clifford DeVoe. "Hand her to me and you can live." DeVoe promised, Chase lowered his weapon then slashed it across the chest and quickly inserted his Signal Chaser into a slot at the back.
"Hissatsu! Matteroyo!" The axe shouted so while it was charging, Chaser kept fighting the Samuroid with all the skills he knew. "Itteiiyo!" The axe which meant that it was fully charged so Chaser grabbed it then jumped high. The Samuroid held it's sword up to try and block it but the axe broke the sword like it was glass. "Full Throttle!" Chaser then slashed the android again but with double the power, shattering the power core then causing the android to blow up into tiny pieces.
"I need to see if Caitlin is alright." Chase spoke then he ran off to the bunker as he was hoping that Caitlin was back and she was safe. Meanwhile, some parts of the Samuroid had survived and was picked up by a mystery figure.
Central City:
S.T.A.R Labs was quiet and so was Central City with no Meta attacks or anything from DeVoe. Iris walked into the Cortex only to see Ralph standing by the computer desk with his arms crossed. Iris wondered what this was about and she got more worried when the father walked in and stood next to Ralph.
"Iris, how's Julian nowadays? You seem to see him more than I do and he's supposed to be a CSI, not a temporary replacement for Barry while he's not here." Joe lectured, Ralph shook his head in agreement then took out his phone and connected a cable from it to the computer: a video message came up with a still image of Barry's face.
"Hey Ralph, my teammate and friend. I recorded this message and sent it to you because you said once that I needed anything, contact you. So here I am, contacting you. A few days ago, I popped over to Central City to see Iris and when I ran past a restaurant, I saw her with someone I thought was a friend but it seems I was wrong. Iris was flirting with him and one of my Shift Cars recorded the entire thing. What I'm saying is that I'm taking a break from mine and Iris' relationship; time off from being a husband and more time being who I am now: Drive. Bye, for now."
The message ended, Joe looked and saw his daughter with tears in her eyes as she sat down and rubbed her eyes. Joe placed his hand on Iris' shoulder while Ralph walked towards the doorway.
"If you don't mind, I got a mad man to hunt down and a best friend to find." Ralph told them then left the room while Iris cried into Joe's shoulder.
Chapter 3 is finished. Things aren't looking good for Barry and Iris. And Chase is acting as Caitlin's bodyguard until she finds out if she still has her powers. Will the three Riders be able to stop DeVoe or will the madman win?
See you all next time!
