Rise Of

Kid Flash

Disclaimer: I own nothing but what you see here!

Summary: As Prometheus lays waste to the heroes, Wally West rises to the occasion to do what he must to save his friends and family.


Chaos and destruction was everywhere in the Business district of Star City after Prometheus and his allies began their devastating attack on the city. Teams Arrow, Flash, and Legends all did what they could to combat the forces and while they had succeeded for the most part, they found themselves having a host of problems when it came to facing Prometheus himself. As the man proved to be damned formidable as they fought him. He could fight like a brawler, fight like a military styled trained man, and even could fight like a member of the League of Assassins and it confused them cause of the styles he would use on each of them. Even switching it out to further confuse opponents and win. Wally had been unable to sit back as he watched from the safety of the Bunker as his girlfriend and their friends fought the guy.

Felicity and Joe had tried to reason with him but he refused to even hear of it and soon left with Harry firmly telling him to do all he could to win. And as he ran to get to his car, Wally suddenly found himself running beyond that and all the way to the battlefield and even striking Prometheus in the jaw. Sending him flying with an angry yell as Wally ran onwards and out of the city. Unable to control himself until he finally came back just as the big bad was getting up. "And who are you? Another of these so called heroes? Whose Flame I will soon take back to where it is mean to be locked up?"

"Nah, just a guy who really doesn't like seein' his girl and friends all gettin' hurt." Replied Wally in a vastly distorted voice.

His own body distorted as well thanks to the vibrations of his body brought on by the speed he had. From her spot on the ground, Jesse looked on in shock and horror. Shock that her boyfriend was even there and apparently with his own speed now. And horror that he was there as he could die! "Wally! Get out of here!" Screamed the frightened and bleeding girl as she struggled to get up.

"No, babe, I'm not leaving you! I'm not leaving any of you!"

"And that will be your undoing!" Roared Prometheus as he charged at the foolish boy.

The two soon engaged in a full on fight and while he was able to land a few solid blows to the other fighter thanks to his speed, it was clear his lack of battle experience was gonna hinder him. "Kid, move!" Commanded Oliver and he did exactly that.

Just in time as the Green Arrow launched several arrows at the big bad, only for him to deflect them with his sword. Prometheus came after him and though weakened, Oliver did what he could to fight him off. But it wasn't enough and Wally strongly disliked that. To the point he hesitantly left Jesse's side to speed rush the crazy son of a bitch and strike him hard in the side. Sending him flying a short distance away. "I don't know what crawled up your ass, but you need to seriously learn to relax!"

"I will only relax when you are all soundly dead!" Yelled the hooded figure and he ran at Wally.

Only for Wally to speed rush him and punch him hard in the stomach. And thanks to his lack of control, the newbie Speedster kept on running after delivering the blow. But he was able to turn back around and deliver another blow and kept doing so as his body was nothing more then a yellow and red streak of static electricity that kept striking out at Prometheus. Many were worried about this as they were unsure what would happen to Wally if he kept going like that as neither Barry or Jesse had gone that fast to gain that kind of appearance. A loud yell came from Wally as he delivered one final solid blow after running all the way from Japan and back to the battlefield.

His punch sent Prometheus flying yet again with a loud agonizing pain filled groan until he hit a wall and fell to the ground. No longer able to move or even concscious for that matter. The streak of yellow and red static electricity moved over to the fallen figure and his voice could be heard. "Consider that a punishment from Zeus for goin' against him."

Jesse hesitantly came over to him while the limping figures of Oliver, Black Siren, Sara, and Thea came over to inspect the fallen figure of Prometheus. "Wally?" Asked the worried girl.

And she wasn't sure, but she thought he turned to her as a very concerned Barry came to her side along with Caitlin 'Frost' Snow and Cisco 'Vibe' Ramon. "Dude, are you alright like that?" Wondered Cisco as that couldn't be a good thing to look like a streak of static electricity!

Even if it was pretty cool to look at! "I… I don't know. I mean… It feels weird but also good. I feel like I'm connected to somethin' really big."

"Wally, I think that's the Speed Force."

"Yeah? Well it feels like its callin' out to me, man."

That frightened Jesse and the Wests a great deal. Even Barry was pretty damned alarmed by that. "Wally! Don't listen! Please! Just come back to me. Please! Come back to me and everyone else!" Cried out the worried girl.

"You can do it, Wally, just focus on our voices, think of something that could help bring you back."

Even those concerned with Prometheus was looking at Wally and they, along with the rest of the teams was all in full on support for the heavily distorted Speedster. "I love you, Wally! I know its probably too early to say that but I just don't care! Its how I feel! I love you and I want to be with you for a really long time!"

"Love you too!" Came the distorted response.

And everyone watched with bated breath as he finally started to come into a more normal look for himself. Whether it was cause of all the support or the love declaration between himself and Jesse, none of the heroes were sure of. But they were none the less thankful it was happening. And when he finally became solid and he looked at himself and the others in shock with his clothes being completely fine, he found himself dropping to his knees in complete exhaustion. Making for Jesse to cry out in shock and rush over to him and hug him tightly. Kissing the life out of her man with tears running down her face. Everyone else let out sighs of relief and cheered happily for what had happened. Those watching in the Bunker and thanks to any brave on the ground news crews in the area were also quite happy as Hell over the change in events!

"Re-Remind me to never go that fast again." Muttered out an exhausted and sweaty Wally.

Jesse fixed him with a light hearted glare. "Oh trust me, babe, I'll personally make sure you don't. Cause if you scare me like that again? I'll seriously hurt you!"

"Yes ma'am!" Replied the young man firmly as he could tell just how serious his girl was being then and there.

The two shared a kiss before she and Ray Palmer helped him stand up and take him back to the Bunker for some much needed r and r. Along with a whole lot of lecturing from Iris and Joe! And if what had happened with Wally was a heartfelt moment filled with worry and fear, the revelation that Prometheus was apparently somehow Tommy Merlyn was truly heart breaking for those who had known him. Even if Laurel-2 was pretty damned confused by the whole thing! Hell, it made her want to be back on her Earth where he wasn't some big ass bad guy who never had been killed! Despite the fact he had tried numerous times to get through to her. She'd never been able to go the distance to end his life. And after the events of today, Wally would nicely enough gain the nick name of 'Kid Flash'. Something he wasn't too sure of but he could work with it! Even if everyone and their grandmother knew who he was now!


Author's Notes: Hope you all enjoyed and happy Halloween! It being awhile since I last updated Possibilities, I figured this would make for a great addition to it! And yes, I was partially inspired by an episode of Justice League when that version of Wally started planet speeding to beat BrainiLex. R and R!
