We Are the Impossible {the Flash/Barry Allen}

~One~

•BARRY•

It's been a little over two months since I woke up from a nine month coma due to being struck by lightning. I'm now the fastest man alive, and I spend the majority of my time helping my community in various ways. Most people just know me as a forensic scientist at the Central City Police Department, but what they don't know is I secretly use my speed to save lives and stop crime, as well as to find other meta-humans such as myself.

I am The Flash.

"Barry!" I heard Caitlin shout. I made my way to the cortex, and saw her typing onto one of the computers.

"What is it Caitlin?" She glanced at me before returning her gaze to the screen before her.

"Silent alarm at a jewelry store. Armed robbers," she stated, pinpointing a location and telling me where to go. I ran to my suit and changed before rushing to the scene.

When I arrived at the jewelry store the civilians were storming out of the building, most of them screaming. I entered the building and saw six men, dressed in black, holding guns. They were approaching the glass counter quickly, and the teller behind it ducked down for cover. I didn't wait for the men to speak.

"You didn't really think you could get away with this did you?" I asked, confidence streaming through my veins like it was natural. The man turned to look towards me, and the third one from the right chuckled.

"We don't have to," he stated, "We just have to kill you." At this he nodded to his men and they raised their guns and fired. Time slowed as the bullets traveled, I noticed they were all taking different paths, only one aimed right at me. It only took a millisecond for me to realize if I dodged the one I'd go straight into another.

I was trapped.

I decided to try to outrun them all, but before I took my first step, someone grabbed my arm. as I turned to look, a wall of what looked just like what shot out the STAR labs explosion flew in front of us, hitting the bullets, and sending them clattering to the floor. The armed men were shocked, as they drooped their weapons and bolted towards the back exit. The wall disappeared, and for some reason I let the men escape.

I turned to the person who had grabbed my arm, and saw a girl, with golden brown hair smile softly at me, before turning and a golden trail of light being left as she ran at an impossible speed.

My impossible speed.

"Are you sure she had the same speed as you? It's incredibly unlikely that she had the same powers." Caitlin stated, walking around the cortex with a tablet in her hands.

"Yeah, I mean, we have only found one set of metahumans with the same powers, and they were brothers who were struck at the same time in the same circumstances. You were alone the night that you were struck, right?"
Cisco added, looking over Caitlin's shoulder as she sat down.

"Yes, but that's not the point. She had my speed, and something else." I replied, trying to figure out what to think of this girl with speed and force fields of light.

"What do you mean?" Caitlin asks, turning her attention to me.

"The armed robbers were expecting me," I began, " They all shot their guns at once, all of them shooting at specific distances at and away from me. If I dodged one I'd be hit by another, there was no way out. Then she grabbed my hand as a wall of light, like the one that shot from the particle accelerator explosion, flew in front of us, stopping the bullets immediately. She saved me, guys, and I have no clue who she is or what she really can do," I explained. By now I had Cisco's attention, and he looked at me, his face scrunched in thought.
