In Time | The Flash

Aspen Penrose can't remember what it was like before the Particle Accelerator exploded two years ago. The bright light in the sky, the wave of energy raging towards her, and the pain she felt when knocked unconscious in her home. Every part of her was changed: every molecule, every atom, every strand of DNA. She was no longer the twenty-four year old woman with a six year old daughter and a humane society for animals to run. She became a metahuman.

At the very same time, her half-sister, Trillium Penrose, was dramatically changed. The artist became a member of Team Flash after realizing what she had become, and for two years kept this secret from her older sister.

It wasn't until two years after the explosion, one year after the appearance of the mysterious Flash, that Aspen's magical abilities started to control her instead of the other way around. Without meaning to, she nearly destroyed her company's building, almost killing her friends and employees. It wasn't until the Flash stopped her and took her to S.T.A.R. Labs that she realized how different she had actually become.

During her stay at the Labs, she learned all that Barry Allen, Cisco Ramone, Caitlin Snow, and her own sister had done for Central City. How they had stopped evil Harrison Wells, aka Eobard Thawne. They had saved countless lives, including hers. While Aspen sought out a way to repay them for all they'd done, a new enemy reered it's ugly head in the most horrific way: kidnapping her daughter from her elementary school and holding her for ransom.

Will Team Flash be able to save Aspen's daughter? Will they be able to stop the new enemy that's threatening Central City? Who is Julian Albert and why does Trillium continue to try to help him? Do Barry and Aspen have something between them? Will the Penrose sisters relationship heal after two years of lies? Will Aspen claim her new title of hero alongside the Flash?
