My name is Barry Allen, and I am the fastest man alive. To the outside world, I'm an ordinary forensic scientist, but secretly, with the help of my friend Daniella and our friends at S.T.A.R. Labs, Daniella and I fight crime and find other meta-humans like us. I hunted down the man who killed my mother, but in doing so, I opened up our world to new threats, and I am the only one fast enough to stop them. I am The Flash!!

Barry's Voice-Over: There are many reasons why we run, but usually it's to avoid what's right in front of us... A decision to be made or a dilemma we have to face. Lately, for me, it feels like running is all I've been doing.

Barry was running all over central city until he comes to a stop in an alley....

"What you got for me, Cisco?" Barry said.

"You've been playing Good Samaritan all morning. Take a break. Are you sure you don't want to come back and see Caitlin?" Cisco said.

"No, I can see her later." Barry said.

"Well, at least let Daniella help you. She's been a little down ever since Patty told her she was leaving central city. Cisco said.

"I can do this on my own." Barry said.

In the cortex inside of Star Labs....

"Cause we cannot afford to waste any more time." Harry said.

"What, 'cause we've just been sipping Mai Tais since you got here?" Cisco said.

"I don't know what you been sipping since I got here, but Barry needs to get better, stronger, faster. We need to train to prepare for Zoom." Harry said.

"Oh, I see. You haven't had your coffee this morning." Cisco says, as he starts slurping his cup of coffee.

"I had my coffee this morning. Don't slurp." Harry said.

Cisco doesn't listen as he slurps his coffee.

"Don't. Don't. Don't." Harry said.

Cisco holds in a long slurp.

Suddenly, the computer starts chiming.

Cisco looks at the computer screen as he says,"Runaway chemical transport truck heading south on Kester."

"On it." Barry says, as he super speeds away.

Minutes later, as the police were chasing a truck, Barry shows up and he the jumps onto the truck and he sees that nobody is driving the truck.

Barry jumps inside, and he then tries to hurry and stop the truck but the breaks werent working and he says,"Hey, I can't stop the truck! Somebody rigged it!" He accidentally rips a car door off of someone's car. "Sorry!"

"You can't let that truck crash. If you do, you'll take out a whole city block." Cisco said.

"Great. Thank you. Thank you for that." Barry said.

Barry swerves out of the way to avoid the cars that were in front of him.

"That was close, that was close." Barry whispered.

"Oh, and the plot thickens. Uh, dead-end up ahead. You got to get out of there!" Cisco said.

Barry looks at the dead end in front of him and says,"Oh, come on." He sees a tire iron next to him and picks it up. "Yes!"

Barry uses the tire iron on the tires of the truck and he slowly makes it come to a stop...he jumps off as the cops reach the truck.

Barry throws the tire iron to the side and walks and he says,"That one was a little close."
