In A Blink ➳ Barry Allen/The Flash

prologue

_______________

❝There's nowhere to run when all is coming undone. You can try, you can try, but you can't hide from the big guns, the big guns. Every little move is fixed like a game of chess. The blood on your hands is thick and you're placing bets. Can't hide in the den of lions. You can't move with your feet tied. No rest when you sleep in shadows. There's nowhere to run..❞

Natalie Reed has just moved to Central City, at first, oblivious to the unnatural events in her new home. She truly feels welcomed in Central City and grows closer to her cousin Caitlin Snow, makes close friends, and eventually falls in love with Barry Allen.

When she discovers that things are not..normal, will she try to discover what is really going on? Will she risk losing happiness and being in the dark in exchange for a dangerous, secretive, and threatening lifestyle?

She discovers two sides to life. One of safety and one of adventure, but once she makes a choice..

..the other will be gone in a blink.
