A Different Kind of Story

Chapter 2: Awakening

"Don't let your fear of what could happen make nothing happen." - Doe Zantamata

Beep…. Beep…. Beep….

The sound of a heart monitor…

It was the first thing that Daniel could make out when his brain started to clear up. He wasn't sure where he was, or what happened the last time he was awake, but the fact that his arms were moving more sluggish then usual proved that he'd been down for quite a while.

Before he knew it, Daniel had already reach up and pluck the crystal-clear breathing tube out of his parched mouth, which was eventually followed by the heart monitoring wires that had been sprawled over his pale chest. Usually, if he woke up to a chilly breeze rushing through the house, Daniel would complain about Dr. Wells putting on the A/C all night, but today was different.

This definitely wasn't home…

"Where…?"

The sound of voices could be heard from deeper into the complex, and a few moments later, Daniel found himself on his feet, heading towards the exit of the recovery room. The further he walked, the more he realized that this place definitely wasn't a hospital. The walls were grey or metallic, and there were no windows in sight, even as Daniel hobbled out of the room.

As he staggered along, the blonde haired teen began to sparsely remember things. The police station… Why had he been at the police department? As Daniel desperately attempted to pull his thoughts back together, blotches of his memories began to return to him, albeit barely.

Soon enough, the bewildered teenager got to a dimly-lit corridor that seemed to be a large circle. The voices were getting louder, that was certain. Daniel kept walking towards the voices, unknowingly heading towards the Cortex, where Barry, Dr. Wells, Caitlin and Cisco where having a meeting.

Inside of the Cortex, they were all standing around the computer area near the entrance, with Dr. Wells and Caitlin standing closer to the door, and Cisco and Barry standing opposite them. All of their faces portrayed a certain emotion, with Cisco leading in confusion, Caitlin with concern, and Barry with irritation.

"We should tell him. Something so big shouldn't be kept from people that are close to us." Barry's opinion was obvious, and his glaring green eyes told everyone in the room that he was serious. Even though they had all known him for month, give or take a week, they had never seen him so certain about something.

From his own personal experiences with life, the older Allen knew that a simple lie could lead to very destructive relationship; One which Barry did not want to pursue with his newly found brother. The best relationships were formed on trust and honesty, and by withholding such crucial information from Daniel, Barry was practically begging for disaster.

"May I remind you again Barry, but isn't it the exact same reason why you choose not to tell Iris?" Harrison Well's smooth voice responded to Barry, which was quickly followed by the sound of his metallic wheelchair wheeling him in Barry's direction. Harry lifted his hands up to his black rimmed glasses and removed them slowly, while he glanced up at Barry, expressionless brown eyes meeting with Barry's passionate green eyes.

"If he finds out, it means that one person too much knows that you are the Flash." Harrison told them all firmly, using his joystick to move his wheelchair to face all three of them. "What would happen if he tells someone who the Flash is under the mask?"

Caitlin bit her lip anxiously as she listened. So far, she hadn't gotten into the debate between Barry and Dr. Wells, choosing to simply stand and listen. Over the course of the past month, Barry and Dr. Wells had several arguments about revealing the Flash's identity to Daniel, and in none of the encounters did Caitlin get involved. However, when the room fell into silence, Caitlin inhaled deeply and stepped up.

"I agree with Dr. Wells…" Caitlin told the group, all of the eyes in the room turning to her in an instant. Caitlin felt her body shiver when she noticed the slightly hurt look reflecting in Barry's emerald green eyes. Taking another deep breath, Caitlin continued.

"It could lead to some serious problems, Barry. If Daniel told someone, it could spread like wild-fire, and next thing you know meta-humans will be knocking on your front door." Caitlin warned Barry, her opinion conveying a very deep message. Barry knew what that meant.

Iris and Joe would be endangered because of him.

"I understand what you're saying Caitlin, but that is only one possibility." Cisco decided to chime in, his voice also drawing attention to himself. The short Latino adjusted his body and awkwardly faced Dr. Snow, both of his dark eyes locking with her own. "There's also the possibility that he won't tell anyone. In that case, telling him would save Barry from having to lie to Daniel abo-"

"Lie to me about what?"

Everyone in the room froze for a second, before turning around quickly to face the entrance of the Cortex. At the entrance, Daniel was standing with a bewildered expression stretched across his creamy face. The room fell into a silence for a few moments, before Caitlin jumped into action.

The blonde haired teenager knew that he had stumbled into the room at the wrong moment, and even a 2nd grader would have been able to figure out that the people in the room was hiding something from him. Daniel knew that it was something important, and an unquenchable itching feeling began to emanate from his right shoulder; one that he didn't hesitate to itch at a moment's notice.

It was a predisposition that the teenager had gained over the years; in which an inextinguishable itch would dominate the younger Allen's right shoulder whenever he had a strong desire to know something. Even despite the fact that the incredibly attractive, chocolate haired woman had implied that the risk of him telling anyone, and unleashing a storm of meta-humans *whatever they were* at his older brother, Daniel was craving to know the secret.

It didn't take long for Daniel's thoughts to get taken over by Caitlin, who was shining a mini-flashlight in his face and forcing him to squint. Daniel groaned uncomfortably and tried to step away from the brunette, but she gripped his arm tightly and pulled him back so that she could start to ask him questions.

The three men of S.T.A.R Labs stood back and watches as Caitlin practically interrogated him about his current condition, while Daniel waved off her questions with confusion increasing each second. Cisco and Barry could only chuckle as they watched the shirtless teen's eyes bounce around from each one of them, while Caitlin kept asking questions.

No one in the room could have been more relieved than Barry at this moment. When Barry had awoken from his 8-month slumber, he had expected for his brother to wake up alongside him. However, as time went on and Daniel didn't wake up, Barry started to think that Daniel would be stuck in a coma forever. The last month had been an intense waiting game, but now it finally had results.

Barry had his brother back.

Harrison Well's watched Daniel with an outward smile, and a joyful expression on his face. On the inside, however, his mind was reeling as he took in Daniel's appearance. There was some subtle difference, like the increased muscle mass that his adopted son was showing. Similar to Barry, Daniel's body hadn't gotten worst while in a coma, but it did the reverse.

That could only mean one thing…

"I'm going to need you to urinate into this cup for me." Caitlin told Daniel firmly, looking directly into his cerulean eyes for a few seconds. Daniel raised his thin eyebrows as he examined the glass container that Caitlin had propped up to his face, obviously at his limit.

"Um… Could you give me a minute? I'm still very confused about all of this." Daniel told her politely, before turning his attention to the others in the room. Daniel didn't recognize the short Latino guy, but his mind had cleared enough for him to recognized Barry and his dad almost instantly; both of his bright blue eyes lighting up in response.

It was also at that moment that Daniel realized Harrison was in a wheel-chair, and his entire facial expression dropped into a concerned frown. "What happened to you?" Daniel asked Harrison, his voice easily projecting how concerned he was for the older scientist.

"When the Particle Accelerator exploded 9 months ago, Dr. Wells was caught in the blast." Cisco told the startled teen, who turned to face Cisco in an instant. Before Daniel could say anything, Cisco continued. "You've been in a coma for the last 9 months." Cisco finished.

Daniel's eyes widened considerably, and the blonde haired teenager turned to Harrison Wells for confirmation; not believing what the short Latino had said. Daniel's jaw quickly became unhinged and his cheeks became slightly flustered when Harry frowned and nodded his head, confirming what Cisco said as true.

"9 months?" Daniel asked Cisco softly, his voice becoming much quieter. Daniel turned his attention down to his bare chest and shivered as a chilly breeze ripped through his body, causing the teenager to shudder. It was at that moment when he realized something was seriously different about his body.

"9 months in a coma and now I have abs?" Daniel said to no-one in particular, his voice laced with confusion. "I'm not a doctor or anything, but shouldn't my muscles be worn out or something?" Daniel asked the group, swiftly looking up at Cisco and then down at his impressive muscles.

Well, it wasn't like he was complaining or anything.

Caitlin walked over to the startled teen and looked over his body with a quick inspection, before turning away and walking towards the computers. "They should be worn down, but instead they are in a state of unexplained cellular regeneration." Caitlin told Daniel smoothly, as if she had said it before. In fact, Caitlin had told Barry those exact same words when he first woke up from his coma.

"A coma… How?" As Daniel asked the group, he glanced around the room for something to cover up his exposed chest and cold torso. After a few moments of looking around, Harrison threw a S.T.A.R Labs shirt towards Daniel, who caught the shirt with easy and put it on.

"When the Particle Accelerator exploded, all of the Dark Matter from the blast was sent throughout central city, including the air space." Barry finally interjected, letting his voice radiate through the room. Every eye in the room turned to him, and he couldn't help but to grin.

Barry could see the panicked expression that was emanating from Dr. Well's facial expressions, and he couldn't help but to mentally grimace. It was clear to Barry that Dr. Wells thoughts that he was going to tell Daniel about him being the Flash; which would be completely disregarding and disrespecting Dr. Well's opinion on whether they should tell Daniel.

"The Dark Matter in the clouds enticed a lightning storm, and when me and you were talking in my office, we were struck by a lightning bolt." Barry told his younger brother, who was standing with his clear eyes locked on specifically on Barry. The room went silent for a moment, as they all let Daniel comprehend the information that he was receiving.

Daniel stood dumbfounded in the entrance of the Cortex, his mouth slightly agape and his mind scrambling to piece together everything that happened. So from what he could gather, when he had gone to see Barry at the Police Station, the Particle Accelerator exploded and caused a thunder storm which created a lightning bolt that had struck both him and Barry, putting them in a comma.

That didn't seem to satisfy Daniel though. Something seemed to be off about the story. First of all, how did he get struck by lightning and survive practically unscathed, excluding the coma which magically gave him muscles? He hadn't gotten to speak to Barry much yet, seeing as he'd only been awake for nearly an hour, but from what he could see, his older brother seemed perfectly fine.

Well, except for one subtle change.

"Was that a side effect of the lightning?" Daniel asked Barry, while he scrutinized his brother's face intently, the expression warping Daniel's face now obviously being pure interest. Barry raised his eyebrows considerably when he heard Daniel's words, uncertainty displaying itself in his body language.

What was Daniel seeing? It wasn't just Barry that was wondering the same question, as everyone in the room except for the teen had a deep look of perplexity written across their faces. It wasn't until Daniel took a few more seconds to examine Barry, and then explain himself, did they understand.

"I meant your eyes. When I saw you in your office, they were chocolate brown. They've always been brown, ever since we were little." Daniel explained slowly, completely engrossed in the change. "You didn't notice that your eyes are emerald green now?"

Barry didn't know what to say. It was the smallest change that his body had made when the dark matter infused lightning bolt had struck him, and between the super speed and attempting to make a good reputation with Central City, he hadn't noticed it. However, he couldn't clam up now, because it was raise too much suspicion.

"Ohh, you meant my eyes! Of course I noticed that they changed colors!" Barry lied casually, a deep-filled grin crossing his face when he saw the confusion drop from Daniel's face. "Yeah, that was the only side effect that the coma had on me. Well, there's that and the fact that I also got super buff."

Daniel seemed to take that explanation fairly easily, and the teenager turned to look at Caitlin and Cisco; who had both shrunk off to the other side of the room. Daniel considered calling for them so that he could get to know the two strangers a little better, but he stopped himself; remembering that they were all hiding something important from him.

Strangely enough, Daniel remembered everything, word for word, that he had heard when he accidentally stumbled into the Cortex earlier, and had a few questions tumble rolling around in his head. The room went a little silent for a few seconds as Cisco and Caitlin went over Daniel's coma records, Dr. Wells was going over some files, and Barry grabbed his jacket.

"Alright guy, I'm going to need to get going. I'm already late for wo-"

"What's a meta-human?"

The room went into a tense silent, as everyone stopped what they were doing. Daniel awkwardly swayed from side to side, impatiently waiting for someone to answer his question. He knew that it was highly unlikely that they would tell him, seeing as it involved whatever they were hiding from him, but it was worth a shot.

Harry was the first to break out of his stupor, and the scientist turned to his son and smiled very thinly. "That's a topic for another time, Daniel. Right now, Caitlin is going to examine you to make sure that you are completely fine." Harry told Daniel, who nodded his head in acceptance.

They all exhaled deeply when they saw Daniel nod his head, and Cisco returned to examining Daniel's coma records. However, his mind was occupied by several questions. How much of their conversation did Daniel hear? What ability did the Particle Accelerator give Daniel, if it gave him anything at all?

When Barry had first woken up and displayed his impossible super speed, Cisco had assumed that Daniel would also have the ability of super speed. After all, both Barry and Daniel were both hit by the same bolt of lightning, right? That part was right, but it wasn't entirely correct to assume that Daniel would also have super speed.

Both Cisco and Dr. Wells had concluded that Barry's super speed ability had not only formed because of the lightning strike, but also the electrified chemicals that had fallen on Barry once he was struck. Daniel didn't have such chemicals fall on him when he was struck.

Instead, Daniel had been thrown into a concrete wall opposite Barry when he was struck. By striking the wall so hard, he had cracked the top of his cranium open, along with creating a large gash on the top of his head. No chemicals were involved, only the dark matter infused lightning and the top of his head being cracked open.

Over the course of the 9 months when Daniel was in his coma, the wound had healed extraordinarily fast, taking only a few weeks to heal instead of the ordinary 1 to 2 months. Not only that, but after a few more weeks, there was no evidence that the fracture had even happened!

The entire situation had perplexed Cisco, but now that they had information about meta-humans and the incredible abilities that they can possess, Cisco understood that Daniel had been definitely displaying some sort of awesome meta-human ability.

Just what was it?

Cisco was about to pull out a file on Daniel's latest brain activity, but before he could, he was startled out of his concentration by Barry; who had tapped him on the shoulder and offered a fist bump. Cisco grinned goofily and fist bumped his closest guy-friend, before putting the file down and turning his attention back to what was going on with the rest of the people in the room.

"You're leaving?" Daniel's voice peeked Barry's attention, and he swiveled around on his heel to face the blonde, who had a rather surprised look on his creamy face. "I just woke up. Can't you stay until they finish checking me up?" Daniel asked Barry with pleading eyes. The teen wasn't begging, because he absolutely loathed seeing people beg for things; whether it be for an item, or even a person.

"Sorry, Danny, but I can't. I'm already late for work and my boss is going to kill me if I don't hand in the rest of my work by tonight!" Barry told Daniel, who smiled weakly and nodded his head. Barry generally felt torn between going to work, or calling in and pretending to be sick so that he could spend more time with his brother. Unfortunately, Barry knew that he needed to finish work on time, because his duties as the Flash needed him to be energized and ready for anything, not sloppy because he had to stay up half of the night catching up to work.

"It's alright. We can always hang out another day when you're free." Daniel told Barry with a smile, causing Barry to sigh loudly with a smile across his face. Barry had thought that Daniel would somehow make him feel guilty about leaving, but gladly the teenager was pretty chill.

"See you, Danny." Barry said aloud as he approached Daniel and extended his arms outward, inviting his brother for a hug. This time, Daniel didn't hesitate to step forward and hug his brother back. They both felt a strange warmth filling the gap that had been lost for all of the years that they had been separate.

They were both glad to have each other back.

All of the onlookers smiled warmly at the heart-touching scene, pausing whatever they had been doing to watch it unfold. After a few moments, the brothers separated and they both stood with an exhilarated rush, evident through both of their facial and body expressions.

Barry then proceeded to say his farewells to Cisco, Caitlin and Dr. Wells, before leaving the Cortex. Once he was out of the Cortex and out of sight, Barry grinned and set off into a sprint. When he did, time seemed to slow down considerably for him, the whole world seemingly coming to a complete stop.

The speedster made it outside in under a second, and once he made it outside yellow electricity began overflowing from his body, charging each and every one of Barry's cells with the power of the Speed Force. The electricity filled him entirely, and in no time, Barry sped like a bolt of lightning away from S.T.A.R Labs.

"Yeah, I'll be at school tomorrow. I'm catching up to some subjects right now." Daniel's voice rang through the eerie empty household, filling up every room with his exhausted voice. Plates clattered together obnoxiously loud, filling up the room with even more unwanted noise.

"I'd invite you to come and chill but my Dad said that I can't have anyone over until I finish catching up with the rest of my work." Daniel reported with a clearly irritated expression running across his face. Daniel held his new phone up to his ear with his right hand, while he finished doing the dishes with his left hand; albeit reluctantly.

It had been nearly a week since he had woken up from his coma, and the last week had been a complete hell. Harrison Wells, being the strict and loving father that he was, had 'insisted' that Daniel catch up to every subject that he missed out on when he was knocked out. That included nearly the entire 9th grade, full of theories and mathematical equations that Daniel had no idea about a few days ago.

Strangely enough, as Daniel had studied though the mountains of books during the week, he had noticed that he was noticeably more intellectual than ever before. Harry had told him that it was probably because he hadn't seen his own intelligence before, but Daniel knew better than that.

His memory had become impossibly phenomenal. The teen could remember every moment since he woke up from his coma, in extremely stunning detail, including every sound and voice that he heard during each memory. His memory had become somewhat like an ongoing video that he could rewind and revisit at any time he pleased. After some research, Daniel had realized that it was similar to Eidetic memory; but Daniel dared to believe that his memory was even more vivid then that.

Most people that claim to have had Eidetic memory say that they can see a visual image in their mind that is almost perfect; in which they recall their memories. In Daniel's case, he completely revisits the moment, capturing it in flawless detail, as if it was all happening again in front of his very eyes. It was incredible.

Daniel didn't know how he had gained this marvelous ability, but he was glad that he did. Instead of it taking months to catch up with all of his school work, Daniel was almost completely finished with all 9 months of catching up in just 6 days. Once the teen set his eyes on a page, it was only a few seconds before he soaked up all of the information like a sponge in water; and he loved it.

Unfortunately, the blonde still needed sleep like most ordinary kids his age, and despite the fact that he could work at a much faster speed than ever before, the young Allen still got very tired, very easily. Daniel was currently on his last book and he desperately wanted to get it done for tomorrow, so that he could hang out with his best friend, William "Billy" Batson, for the first time in what seemed like forever.

"Yeah, and if you keep me on the phone for much longer, I won't be able to hang out after school tomorrow." Daniel warned his friend over the phone, a sly smile snaking across his face when the other end of the call went silent for a few seconds.

"Fine, sneaky bastard, you win this time! I'll see you tomorrow!" Billy's voice replied from the other end of the call; his slightly high pitched voice augmented because of how worn out he also was. Daniel's eyebrows raised at the strange high pitched noise that his friend had emitted.

"Alright, see ya' later Bill-"

"No wait! Don't forget to bring sun glasses tomorrow!"

Daniel raised his thin eyebrows considerably at the request; an amused chuckle escaping from his slightly agape lips as he did. "And why should I bring sun glasses?" Daniel asked Billy, playfully pretending to be cautious as he did.

"It's a surprise! Trust me, it's worth the paranormal itching!"

Daniel exhaled obnoxiously loud when he heard that it was a surprise. He could already feel the irritating 'paranormal' itch, as Billy would call it, clawing at his right shoulder, and the blonde inhaled deeply to try and tone down the mind-numbing urge to scratch himself.

"It better be worth the wait, Billy! Goodnight!" Daniel said his farewell to Billy, just as he lowered his new phone from his right ear and ended the call. Why did Billy want Daniel to bring his sun glasses to school tomorrow? The more Daniel thought about it, the less the answers that he thought of made sense, so eventually he gave up.

"Now to finish the last book." Daniel had finished cleaning the dirty dishes while he was on the phone to Billy, so when he ended the call, Daniel made a straight bee line for his room, making it to his private chamber shortly after. The teen sat down at his desk immediately and put his feet up on his stiff wooden desk; taking his phone back out of his pocket and holding the disregarded study book in his other hand loosely.

"Barry…" Daniel let his older brother's name slip off of his tongue smoothly, while he opened up their text messaging history for the last week. His relationship with Barry was undeniably getting better, seeing that they literally had no contact before they got struck by lightning, and they were both enjoying each other's existence.

They had only physically seen each other 3 times in the last 6 days, two of which being when they both happened to be chilling at S.T.A.R Labs at the same time. The third time was a few days ago, when Barry had taken Daniel to the mall so that Daniel could buy some new clothes for school, seeing as his old clothes from before the coma didn't fit him anymore.

Apart from those times, the two surviving Allen kids=623 had been talking almost constantly over text messages, a steady stream of more than 500+ messages having been sent from each phone. Mostly, they talked about how their lives had been so far, and all of the things that they both did during the 10 years of miscommunication. Even despite all of the text messages, Daniel still felt like he still didn't know anything about his older brother.

Daniel: Hey Barry! What's up?

Sent 1:04 AM

Daniel sent the message and put his phone flat down on his dense desk, so that he could focus on his study book. The heir of S.T.A.R Labs opened up the book and swiftly scanned through the first few pages with ease, memorizing the pages in no time at all. The phone vibrated violently against the wooden desk, and Danny quickly picked it up.

Barry: Nothing much! Just hanging out at the Lab with Cisco and Caitlin!

Received 1:06 AM

Daniel narrowed his cerulean eyes considerably when he read the text message, the confusion on his creamy face quickly becoming apparent. Why was Barry at the lab at 1 in the morning? Scratch that… Why was Barry always at the lab? It didn't make sense at all.

The only logical excuse that Barry had for being at S.T.A.R Labs was because Caitlin was his doctor, but surely Barry didn't need to get checked up on medically every day? And even if they were just planning to hang out, why couldn't they go to Cisco or Caitlin's apartments? Something fishy was definitely going on over there, and Daniel had a feeling that he knew what it involved.

Daniel: Why do you guys always hang out at the Lab? It's kind of weird.

Sent 1:07 AM

This time, Daniel didn't put down his phone. He wanted to know the truth, or at least get a hint about what they were hiding from him. It didn't take long for Barry to shoot a message back.

Barry: Well… Cisco and Caitlin's apartment complex is being overrun with cockroaches and creepy crawlies. They can't stay there until an exterminator bombs the apartments, so we just hang out here.

Received 1:07 AM

Daniel had felt like accusing Barry of lying, but he had no evidence to back up his own claim; the only suspicion that the teenager had being the strange conversation that he had walked into when Caitlin, Cisco, Barry and Dr. Wells were arguing in the Cortex. From replaying the conversation over and over again in his head, Daniel had a full understanding about what was going on.

Barry had to lie to Daniel about something very important, which would potentially put Barry into a lot of danger if Daniel found out. The danger somehow involved meta-humans, which Daniel couldn't understand himself, seeing as Barry seemed like an ordinary guy. What did meta-humans want with Barry?

Dr. Wells had told him very subtle details about the meta-humans, simply informing him that they had started to appear a few months ago, and he was very firm when telling the teen that they were extremely dangerous. For some reason, it seemed that Barry was housing a secret which made all of the meta-humans despise him, and apparently Daniel wasn't trustworthy enough to be let in.

Daniel: You sure that it doesn't have anything to do with that secret you guys are keeping from me?

Sent 1:08 AM

Daniel's heart began to race after he sent the message, all of the blood in his veins circulating faster than normal. When did this secret get so important to him? He couldn't recall the exact moment, but if Daniel had to pick a moment, it would probably be right now. Why didn't they think he was trustworthy enough to know? The very thought that they are all purposely withhold information from his made his blood boil, and a frown formed on his face.

Barry: I know that you might feel like we are keeping something from you, but it's for you own safety, trust me.

Received 1:09 AM

Daniel glared down at the message for a minute or two, not knowing whether he should believe it or not. After all, why should Daniel trust Barry, if Barry wouldn't trust Daniel? In Daniel's perspective, Barry only wanted to keep himself safe by not telling Daniel, which would lower the chances of revealing Barry's secret.

Daniel: Or are you just trying to keep yourself safe?

Sent: 1:11 AM

This time, Barry didn't reply immediately. The message that Daniel sent was marked 'Read', which confirmed that his older brother saw it, but it was obvious after a few minutes that Barry wasn't going to respond. The room dropped into an agonizing silence…

…

Daniel's jaw was clenched shut as he stared down at the text message, and he could practically feel his heart violently thrashing in his chest. Before he knew it, his body was quivering uncontrollably, to the point where it could be classified as shaking, and his fist became tightly wrapped around his phone.

"FOR FUCKS SAKE!"

Daniel swiveled around in his work chair and belligerently chucked his phone to the other side of the room, his overwhelming fury taking the better of him. It wasn't the first time that the teen went into fits of anger, and it probably wouldn't be the last.

"I didn't even do anything-"

Daniel stopped mid-sentence, his entire facial structure switching from exasperation to astonishment at a moment's notice. He was looking at something that made him completely forget about the what had happened just a moment ago, and mixed emotions were circulating through his head.

No doubt, elation was ruling them all, for what Daniel saw was beyond human comprehension…

His phone was floating in the air unsupported, as if it was in a suspended animation, entirely unaffected by gravity or any other law of science. With his wide mouth gaping, Daniel instinctively reached his creamy hand in the direction of the phone, consciously willing it to return to his hand.

Initially, Daniel didn't believe that it would work. After all, it couldn't be possible that he had stopped the phone's momentum with his mind… Right? However, when the phone rapidly sped into his awaiting palm, Daniel couldn't think of any other explanation…

He was a meta-human.
