Barry' s pov

Caitlin had tested all the kids, and found that all twelve were speedsters. The speedforce was strong in them, even if they didn' t know how to use it or how it worked. Or did not remeber, in Berry' s case. The kids looked anxious, and we knew why. New powers, new people, new Earth... It was a lot to take in, especially for their age. I was in my early 20s when I became the Scarlet Speedster and it still was a tough adjustment. This was going to be hard on Austin, Berry,Cyrus,Daisy,Ethan,Felicity,Gabe,Holly,Isaac,Jazmyn,Karter and Lydin.

Karter interrupted my thoughts with a question " So, could I run a mile in ten minutes like they train you for in gym?"

Wally laughed and his girlfriend Jessie chuckled, answering the young boys' question for me "You can run fast enough to travel through time. You can run on water and on buildings. You can run a mile in seconds if not nanoseconds."

I shrugged " You can also time travel, but it' s a horrible idea, take it from me. Don' t do it. "

They nodded, thankfully not asking any questions about my terrible experiences with time travel. Cisco brightened up

" Alright! We need eleven new suits and eleven superhero names!"

Joe spoke up

" Wouldn' t it be best to focus on training and determining their speed levels first, and train them on phasing, running up and down buildings and combat?

I looked at my best friend " He' s right, Cisco. Training first, then names. But you can design the main parts of the suits, then they can discuss color and design with you after training." He nodded and I turned to Jessie and Wally, who' d recently gotten back together; her moving to our Earth, Harry arriving tomorrow. I sighed

" I'm gonna need your help to train and race them, plus basic combat and using their speed in combat."

They grinned "No problem."

We were assesissing their speed, and saw they were almost clocking mach 1. This was impressive for beginners, even if they were speedsters. After a few more laps around the track, Caitlin monitoring all their vitals from the same tablet she monitored me for the first time with, they exited the track, and we could hear their stomachs growling.

"How is this possible?" asked Daisy. " We just ate!" Laughing, I explained

" Our metabolism burns through calories at superhuman speed. We' re always hungry. We need at least 8000 calories a day. The protein bars and power shakes here help a lot. And we never get fat."

Helping herself to a few protein bars, Lydin smiled " This is the life!"

Cyrus pulled me aside after a few more hours of training " Would it be ok if we lived here at S.T.A.R. Labs? The explosion caused our Earth to,well, explode."

That stunned me and I shuddered, realizing how easily we' d gotten off when Reverse- Flash set off the accelerator. I nodded

" Sure, but we won' t be here ALL the time, but we'll come running as soon as you need anything." Berry winked at me "I'll bet you'll get here before the others, Flash." I laughed " Probably so, Flash. With Wally and Jessie at my heels."

Jazmyn nodded her head towards the couple of speedsters " What are your superhero names?"

Wally smiled "I'm Kid Flash and she's Jessie Quick." the newcomer nodded " Cool!"

A realization dawned on me and I spoke " Guys, H.R. and Harry are gonna be here at the same time."

Grumpy and Happy Wells here at the same time? I didn' t know if I should be looking forward to this or fearing it. My thoughts are interrupted yet again as Cisco runs back into the room, a pile of suits stacked up high in his arms. He showed off the colorful suits proudly "Yatzee! Same protection as Barry, Jessie and Wally' s suits, comms and vital markers. Just grab the colors you want, then we'll talk names."

They eagerly went to the pile of suits and began choosing their color schemes.

Austin smiled, a blue and silver getup in his hands " I think my name should be... Velocity."

Cisco smiled " Awesome name. Usually I hate it when heroes or villains name themselves, but I like your ideas, kid."

He smiled, hiding his blonde hair under his new suit, one chocolate eye dropping in a wink "Thanks."

Berry simply changed into her suit, already having one identical to mine and donning my moniker. Cyrus took a liking to the orange suit, and adopted the name suited up in white and pink, as the hero Blink. Ethan, or Rapid, took the dark blue suit. Felicity was the yellow-suited speedster Mobility.

Seeing Gabe take the red and orange suit, Cisco smiled

" Skidder. You' re Skidder."

Holly was dubbed Pace after trying on her pink and red suit, and a silver- clad Isaac became Electric.

Jazmyn was wearing violet, Karter was in white and Lydin wore pink. Jazmyn spoke "I'm Speedy, he' s Rush and she' s Quickshot."

I smiled " Seems like our new speedsters are almost ready to start helping out there. But before you do anything, small or big, we need some Big Belly Burger."

They cheered, and I sent Wally and Jessie to pick up our not-so-small order. Not long after they left, the kids went to run some more and Iris put her hand on my bicep "Barry, I' ve been hiding something from you."
