Night Flash (The Flash Fanfiction)

Chapter 2

They all stared at me. "You'll need to have a suit," Dr. Wells said.

I opened my mouth to say No Shit. But decided to not do it. "Yeah. I was kind of hoping for black and yellow for the suit."

He nodded. "I can do that."

"How did you become a speedster?" Cisco asked.

I sighed. "If I knew that, I would have told you."

He nodded. "Joe and Barry both said you didn't know."

"Not until two years after I saved her," Barry said.

Caitlyn frowned. "Are you sure we can trust her?"

"Zoom wants her. If I didn't accept her help she would be chasing after him herself." Barry looked at me. " At least now we can keep her safe."

I raised an eyebrow. "Do I need to be kept safe though? I have a lot of powers."

Barry rolled his eyes. "Even having a lot of powers you can get hurt."

"True," I allowed.

"I will get started on making her suit," Dr. Wells said.

I smiled. "Thank you."

"Oh, she's nice to him," Barry muttered.

I looked at him. "He hasn't purposely irritated the hell out of me yet."

Barry smirked. "Did I do that? I can't seem to remember."

"Then for a hero, you sure have a sucky memory," I shot back.

He laughed. "Wow, I might enjoy having you around."

"Sure," I grumbled.

He smiled. "Are you sure you want to join the team?"

"Just because one of you is an asshole doesn't mean I'm going to back out."

"You are brave."

I smirked. "If 'brave' means dealing with the Flash being a bastard, I suppose I am." Geez, I can't believe I'm talking to my favorite hero like this.

"What are you thinking about?" Iris asked.

I blushed. "Um, that I'm surprised he agreed."

"You're blushing."

I sighed. "Do you really want to know? It's because he's my favorite hero and I can't believe I'm actually talking to him."

Barry raised an eyebrow. "I'm your favorite hero?"

"Yes. Since I was three to be exact." Then I glared. "Don't get smug about it. You're a lot of people's favorite hero."

"But none that are trying to become a hero themselves," he mused. "Or on my team."

I sighed. "Asshole."

He chuckled and got out of his suit. He looked at me. "Are you sure you want to be a hero?" He asked.

It didn't sound like he was asking to be mean. I nodded. "Yeah, I'm sure."

He nodded. "Then you'll now be Night Flash."

I smiled. "I'm glad." I looked at my watch. "I should get home."

Dr. Wells nodded. "Alright. Be careful. I'll have your suit done by tomorrow."

"Okay, and I will." I zipped to the police station to get my car and then drove home. When I opened the door I was greeted with a mess. Dammit! Zoom must have been here while I was gone. Luckily I didn't write anything about my plan and stuff down. The thing is, is he still here? "Hello?" I called out as I walked into the living room.

"It's about time you get here," Zoom said coming out of my bedroom.

I gulped. I should have stayed close to the door. Shit. "Why are you here?" I said and was glad it came out calmly.

"I believe you already know that. I want your powers." He took a step towards me.

I took a step back. "Well, you can't have them." I needed to get out of here!

He took another step. "I'm sure you don't even know how to control them."

I took two steps back and flicked my wrist. Ice formed over his legs. I smirked. "I believe you're wrong." Then I zipped out of there. Flinging the door open and not caring if it closes or not. I continued running full force and saw a streak of yellow ahead of me. I stopped in front of Barry so he had to stop. He did.

"Are you okay, Tina? You said you were going home" Barry said.

I nodded. "I was but I found my house destroyed and Zoom was there."

"He was?" He stepped forward and put his hands on my shoulders. "Are you okay? Did he hurt you?"

"No. I froze him to the floor and ran for it. But I'm sure he isn't there now."

"You'd be right," a voice said behind me.

I whirled and Barry moved in front of me. "What do you want, Zoom?" Barry asked.

"Is that not obvious? I want her powers."

"I won't let you get them."

"Neither will I," I muttered.

Barry shook his head. "You're back up."

I frowned. "I'd rather be your partner."

He sighed. "We'll settle this later."

"Fine." Then I looked at Zoom. "You said you didn't think I could control them but what did I do? I controlled them."

"You controlled ice," Zoom pointed out.

"I can control them all. Ice was just the obvious choice at that moment," I snapped.

Zoom took a step forward and I could help myself. I took a step back even though Barry was in front of me. I think Barry could tell I was scared and nervous because he started talking. "You didn't really expect to use all her powers at once, did you?" He asked Zoom.

Zoom snorted. "No, I'm not an idiot."

"I think you are," I muttered.

"Why do you say that?" Zoom snapped at me.

I sucked in a deep breath and let it out slowly. "Because you know you can't take my powers from me now. I can control them so they are now with me permanently. Yet, you're still trying t take them."

"I can kill you and then they'll be mine."

I froze. I had not thought of that. "I won't let you," Barry said. I was surprised he was even letting me say anything. "Catherine, run," he said in a low voice.

"But..."

"Run." Then he ran towards Zoom but passed him and Zoom followed him. I hesitated then ran back to the Laboratory. I stopped in the room everyone was in and looked over Cisco's shoulder as he watched Barry run.

"This is my fault," I whispered.

"No, it isn't," Barry's voice came from the speaker.

I forgot he had a mic. "Yes, it is."

I heard him sigh. "Zoom wants us both. That's why he's following me. He wants me more than you."

"But..."

"No arguing."

"Geez, you sound like my dad," I muttered.

He laughed. "Good to know."
