Chapter 4: Trying to be a hero

- Aidan's Prov
"Catch this!" Eveline exclaimed throwing a glass cup at me then it moved in slow motion in the air so I ran to it and caught it but kinda lost my balance and backed into the wall while still holding the cup as a trail of turquoise lightning followed me and I looked shocked "Whoa!" I yelled "I'm good!" I exclaimed to everyone in the house that saw what I did "You sure?" Eveline asked me and I nodded smiling in excitement "Yeah sis! I'm a Speedster!" I exclaimed excitedly and Dad was looking shocked at what I can do "And just how did you become a Speedster?" Dad asked me "Don't know, right now, don't care" I replied as I put the cup back in the cupboard "every single one of my nerves feel really tingly, and my synopses must be going insane, because my reaction times are like, UNIMAGINABLY fast!" I exclaimed excited because I never knew something like this would happen "But what are we going to do? I can't use my new powers whenever I want, everyone would freak out if they found out I'm a Speedster now" I told them "So we can't tell anyone?" Aunt Aphmau asked "No, no one can know, at least not until we figure out how I got these powers and I highly doubt it's a coincidence that this happened 6 months ago after we had that run in with that evil Speedster guy" I told everyone "And he's not the Reverse-Flash, that Speedster has a yellow suit, the guy that attacked me was wearing a navy blue and silver suit" I told everyone then Evan was thinking while smiling "You mean when....Reverse-Velocity hit you with his lightning!" Evan exclaimed "What?" I asked confused "Well he said something about some sort of speedster named Velocity before he ran away right after he blasted you and I've been trying to think of a name for the guy" said Evan "Which according to The Flash T.V series, is exactly what happened to-" Evan was about to finish but we both finished at the exact same time "XS" we said at the exact same time but then the gauntlets Evan and I are wearing started beeping and also, we got jobs as receptionists for the police station and our gauntlets beeped "10-90 in progress" said the A.I in our gauntlets and A.I stands for "Artificial Intelligence" for those of you who don't know what that means "A bank heist?" I asked then I turned to my aunt, uncle, sister, Evan and Dad "Huh, how ironic!" I exclaimed "No, no, no, no, you cannot do that, that is a horrible idea, like throw an egg at a house horrible idea" said Evan "What do you mean?" Dad asked Evan as I grabbed my black hoodie and a black mask "I'm only gonna do a tiny, run-by" I told them putting my hoodie on and held the mask in my hand "You are a teenaged receptionist and a high school student! not a superhero!" Eveline exclaimed and Dad looked very shocked at what they were talking about "Hey, my job is just as the same as the cops, I am an officer even if I'm a receptionist, my job is the same as the cops" I told everyone "We catch the bad guys and put them in jail" I told them then Evan sighed "Alright, go get 'em, Flash-Boy" said Evan and I was chuckling "Teen-Flash" he went on "Hot Flash!" Evan exclaimed but that just made me feel uncomfortable on so many levels "Definitely not that one, what is wrong with me?" Evan asked then I pointed at him "Okay, we're gonna workshop my name later" I told him then I put the mask on "But for now.." I started as I finished sticking the mask on my face then I sighed "I have to guard Phoenix Drop" I told them as I looked like this

then I took off as a trail of turquoise lightning was behind me as I was sprinting to the bank hoping I can get there in time then I saw the security guard pointing a gun at the bank robbers then I was right behind the robbers "HAH!" I grunted punching them in the back of their heads and sent them flying forward as I stopped using my speed and they did front flips and landed painfully on their backs "What the hell?" the security guard gasped as he saw me "Relax! I'm on your side and I'm here to help!" I told him then I saw that there were two more but these guys didn't have bags so I realized these guys were a distraction then I turned to the security guard "I'm on it!" I yelled at the security guard as I sprinted to the real robbers with my speed then I ran in front of them and slammed their faces into the palms of my hands as they ran right into me and I made them fall over doing backflips and landed painfully on their faces as I stopped using my speed and they were groaning in pain as I crouched to their levels "Oh, hahaha, you gotta be way faster than that to outrun me" I told them confidently then police came and saw me then I turned to the robbers "Have fun being behind bars" I told them as I ran back home and I saw my gauntlet was sparking "OW!" I yelled as I pulled it off and dropped it shaking my arm from getting burnt from the gauntlet and Dad, Evelin, Aunt Aphmau and Uncle Aaron ran into the foyer and saw what was wrong and also my shoes are smoking! I quickly took my shoes off and stomped on them to try to get them to stop smoking and they did but now they're ruined and now I need a new pair of shoes! and Evan was still here and saw that I accidentally fried my gauntlet then he picked it up and turned it off to stop the sparking then I took off my hoodie and saw I have a pretty nasty burn on my arm then Dad called someone and after about 10 minutes, the man with the black leather jacket and he walked in the house "Alright, what happened?" this man asked after he started covering my forearm with medicine to treat my burn as it was blistering and covered my arm with bandages then as Evelin was watching T.V, the channel was set to the news and it showed me in my lightning and how I turned to the cops wearing my mask and ran off which was only about an hour ago and they're calling me a hero but I barely did anything, all I did was help the police stop a bank heist then the doctor named Kevin turned to me and questioned me and I explained to him that I must've gotten my speed from that Speedster that blasted me with his lightning then I saw my hoodie is scorched a little but it was still good so as I got up, I actually can't feel any pain in my arm anymore and that's not normal because I have been feeling this burning since I got it so I told my doctor that and after he scanned my arm, he showed us what kind of burn I have "It seems you had a second degree electrical burn on your left forearm" Kevin told us "Had? what do you mean had?" I asked him confused then he took the bandages off my arm while Dad was trying to stop him but right after the bandages were off, we saw my burn is gone! "It's fully healed, within just 2 hours" said Kevin and we all looked seriously shocked that my arm healed that fast "How is that even possible!?" Uncle Aaron asked shocked "Well, I studied Speedsters and my best guess? Aidan wasn't just given speed, but he was also given hyper-healing, which means his normal healing rate is now just as fast as Aidan is now" said Kevin and we were very shocked that not only do I have hyper-speed, I now have hyper-healing too! after a while, I was watching T.V with Evelin watching our favourite superhero show but then Hunter came in "I have something that might help you for when you use your speed Aidan" Hunter told me then everyone stood up as Hunter was carrying a silver briefcase then set it on the table "I studied as much as I could on speedsters and I realized, they always wear a certain leather jacket and pants so, I took the liberty of making this and lets see if this fits you Aidan" said Hunter so I walked up to the case and clicked the locks and opened it and saw this in it

And I looked shocked at what I was looking at "I made this friction-proof so that whenever you run-" Hunter was about to explain until I cut him off "Whenever I run wearing this, it won't burn up from my lightning" I said amazed then I thanked Hunter then left with the suit and tried it on and it's a perfect fit! I went to go show others until I saw on the news there was a Speedster with red lightning robbing a scientific industry and everyone saw how I look in this suit so I took off running to where that building is so I can try to stop whoever is behind it.
