Daughter of The Flash

010. REVENGE OF THE ROUGHS

☆☆☆

THE LIFE OF A PERSON CAN CHANGE A LOT IN A MATTER OF DAYS.

For example, after Bella's father confessed his feeling for Iris they haven't been able to talk like before. They haven't been able to look at each other in the eyes since that Christmas night. The title of the fastest man alive changed from being Barry Allen to The Man in Yellow. And Barry was making sure that he got that title back.

The Team Flash that included Barry, Caitlin, Cisco, Wells, and Bella were all at the same tracks where they first saw Barry run. The wind was still cold, the sky was a shade of blue-grey and everyone was on edge. Barry was running on the tracks with his suit on. One of Cisco's control remote drones was flying in the air shooting bullets at the scarlet speedster. Cisco is the one controlling the drone since he didn't trust anyone with his 'puppies.'

"That was too close." Called Caitlin from behind them, walking with a cup of coffee in her hand and another for Bella.

"He told me to make it hard." Defended Cisco, his eyes still on his target slightly turning his neck back.

"Pretty sure he didn't tell you to make him dead." Caitlin shot back, wide eyes directed at the back of Cisco's head.

"Remember, this is just supposed to be a training exercise to improve Barry's speed." Interrupted Wells from his place right beside Cisco.

"Cisco, you gonna bring it or what?" They heard Barry ask through one of the mini speakers on the table so everyone could listen in on what he was saying.

"Pretty sure the person you're supposed to be telling that is my dad." Bella pointed out from her spot behind the table with a book in hand and a cup of coffee in the other. Being homeschooled had the advantage that she could take her homework almost anywhere at any time of the day. She was sitting in a chair behind a table, Cisco, Caitlin, and Wells on the other side.

A book over biology sat in front of her with a few colorful sticky notes she added to annotate, whether for a summary or as a reminder to ask Caitlin to help her understand. She pushed her glasses up further her nose and pulled her beanie down over her ears as the cold weather made goosebumps run through her skin.

"Bring it." Nodded Wells in front of Bella.

Cisco goes ahead and with a simple command, he shoots a missile that sends Barry to the ground after he loses control. He then stands back up and to everyone's worry, he runs towards the drone.

"Why isn't he running away?" Asked Caitlin.

Bella who dropped her pencil when she heard the explosion bent down to pick it up. Something made her freeze in her spot as she watched something that would sound crazy if she told anyone. Dr. Wells's foot had moved from its place in the wheelchair to the floor. Almost at a positions that said he was preparing to run.

"Barry, run away!" Pleaded Caitlin.

Snapping out of it, Bella lifts her head up from under the table and watches with wide eyes as a missile is sent to her father. A small yelp escapes her as she sees her father shift the missile towards the drone making it explode, all in a matter of one second. All of them turn towards Bella as she sighs of relief with her eyes closed. A gust of cold wind blows through them as Barry stops right in front of them.

With a hard look, Bella gets up from her seat and walks over to her dad who just watches her. She takes off her beanie and starts smacking her father wherever she could hit him.

"What did I do?" He asked perplexed.

"You almost gave me a heart attack." Snapped Bella putting her hoodie back on, "I swear I'm gonna die before either of you people do because of this."
