I'm strapped down to a cold, hard hospital bed. Men and women in lab coats stand over me. They inject me with vials of brightly colour liquids that make me feel like my insides are on fire. I scream in pain and shut my eyes closed tightly as if it will make the pain go away.

Next, they start to cut open different parts of me. Some cutting my stomach, others cutting my arms. I feel the pain start to fade and open my eyes at a tingling sensation. I see the scientists watching in awe as my skin starts to slowly knit itself back together.

One scientist places a mask over my face and my eyes grow heavy as I start to fade into darkness.

......................

I wake with a start and I immediately feel bile start to rise up my throat. I quickly sit up and lean to the side, puking stomach acid onto the ground.

When I'm done, I wipe my mouth and look around. Where am I? The last thing I clearly remember was being shot by David. After that, I only have hazy memories of scientists and pain, lots of pain.

I slowly stand up, expecting to feel pain but I feel completely fine. I brush myself off slightly and note that I'm now wearing a grey t-shirt and a pair of black sweatpants.

I don't remember changing myself into these clothes.

I hear the sound of a car honking and look around to find myself in a small alley, just off of the road. I walk to the edge of the alley and peer out into the street. Where am I?

I look around for a street sign but all I see is one that says, 3rd St. That doesn't help at all. That is one of the most common street names in Central City!

I walk out onto the street and find I really have to use the bathroom. I look around till I find a small coffee shop.

I walk over to it and step inside, the small bell above the door ringing as I do so. I walk over to the counter and see a woman in her late 30s or so with blonde hair standing there.

"Hey, can I use your bathrooms?" I ask her. She gives a warm smile.

"Sure thang dearie. It's just through that door and it's the first door on the right," she says with a thick southern accent. I nod and thank her before walking through the door and entering the small but clean bathroom, locking the door behind myself.

I quickly do my business before washing my hands and looking at my reflection in the mirror. I have lost a lot of weight.

My cheeks are not as chubby and rosy as they were before but now look slightly gaunt and my eyes have lost their usual light and happiness.

I splash my face with water to try to give it some colour and I run my fingers through my hair to tame it down a bit. Once I look more or less presentable, I exit the bathroom and the cafe, walking back onto the street.

I look around the bustling street, not recognising any of the buildings. I have to find my way back to S.T.A.R Labs.

It's then that I suddenly notice something out of the corner of my eye. It's a bus coming down the road. It reads Star City on the side. Star City? As in Starling City? How did I get all the way out here?

I worry for a second, wondering how one earth I'm going to get back to Central City before I realise something. I have superspeed, I can just run back.

I walk back into the alley so that nobody sees me and take a deep breath before I start to run. I stop with a jolt. I was just running at normal speed. I try again but get the same results.

My eyes widen with realisation. My powers, they're gone.

..................

I'm sitting in the alley, my head between my legs. Why are my powers gone? Was it the experiments those scientists were doing on me? Then I remember something. Right before David shot me, he took my powers. How could I forget?

I close my eyes tightly. Now how am I supposed to get back? I don't have any money and I don't know any of their phone numbers so I can't just lend someone's phone.

I open my eyes and slowly stand up. I'll just have to think of something but I know I can't stand in this alley forever, this isn't Central City, it is Starling... Star City and being a seventeen year old girl in an alley by myself isn't such a good idea.

Just as I start to leave the alley, I hear the sounds of footsteps behind me and a guns safety being clicked off.

I slowly turn around and see four men, all with big guns. I try to slowly back away but bump into something instead. I quickly turn around and find another two men. I'm surrounded.

I take a deep breath and try to calm my nerves.

"What do you want?" I ask nervously, putting up my hands.

"Well for starters, empty your pockets and hand over your money," one of the men says, he must be the leader. I shove my hands in my pockets and find them empty just like I knew they already were.

"I... I don't have any money," I stutter. The men start to move closer to me and I shut my eyes tightly.

One of them tries to grab my arm and my eyes shoot open as I pull away from him and shove my hands at him, blasting him with some sort of red and purple energy. He falls backwards and hits the wall, immediately knocked unconscious.

Three men suddenly shoot at me but before the bullets can hit me, a red force field forms around me, causing the bullets to hit it and fall to the ground.

I have new powers? The men all stare at me with wide eyes before they scatter, running away from me and out of sight.

I look down at my hands and see them glowing purple. What happened to me?

All I know now is that I really have to get back to S.T.A.R Labs and as quickly as possible.

I really hope you enjoyed chapter 1!

I didn't know what to write about at first but this kinda just came to me.

What do you think of her new powers??
