~ Chapter 4 (And Then a Hero Comes Along With The Speed to Carry On)

9 months prior to the Star labs accident, Barry Allen finally opened his eyes. He looks around and he saw the yellow man in a tight suit approaching him.

"You're next." the man told him.

Barry tried to move but not an ounce of muscle moves to his command and panic bubbles inside him eating him like a Category 5 hurricane on crack.

"Caitlin, the patient, he's convulsing come quickly!" Cisco announced himself breathlessly into Caitlin's office.

Perked up with the result, she run from her office to the infirmary to check her patient.

"His vitals are spiking. He's lucid dreaming. We should wake him up." she told Cisco.

And waking up he did. Barry slowly opens his eyes and blink. Blink again for two blurry images came into his view. Thank God it was only a dream.

"Hey." Caitlin spoke first.

"Uhm, where am I?" he asked Caitlin. If it's possible that he's dead right now, this woman infront of him is definitely an angel. With her fair skin, warm brown eyes and deep auburn hair..

"You're at Star labs dude! I'm Cisco Ramon and she's Caitlin Snow your doctor."

Cisco, the other guy in the room whom he didn't realize was their at first, broke his thoughts about Caitlin.

"Why am I here?" he asked.

"Well, it seems that you're a Star Lab casualty and we take it to heart that you will become our responsibilty." Caitlin answered without batting an eyelash.

Then it hit him. A thunder hit him and he was kicked in a world full of void, dreamless sleep.

"You were in coma for 9 months Mr. Allen. And I want to make sure that the particle accelerator doesn't do you any harm." Wells informed him as he step into the med bay.

He was still puzzled but now that he's awake and his mind isn't blurry he asked them questions. It perk up his mood when Caitlin told him that Iris and Felicity visited him. Joe paying a visit is natural but Eddie? Really? Then he approached Caitlin and told her that he needs to see Iris.

"Are you sure that you can make it?" Caitlin asked him.

"Yeah I guess?" he asnwered back.

She's having doubts in her mind about him going out in his condition but she relented. She gave him a Star Labs jacket and bid him goodbye.

"And you should probably come back here Mr. Allen. We're not done with your examinations." she reminded him.

"Yes Dr. Snow." he answered back. She reminded him of his late mother Nora Allen. The way she reminds him about his vitamins, it sounds with authority and care. He shouldn't be thinking about sad memories now. He loves his mom that's for sure but for now he's back on track and he ought to make it right.
