Baby Speedster - The Flash

Chapter 5

Third Person's POV

When Barry entered Jitters it was not particularly busy.

"Oh, hey," said Iris. "I just finished my shift. We have so much to catch up on!"

Barry smiled. "Yeah, do you want to go for a walk?"

"Sure, let me grab my purse."

On the way out of the door Iris pulled out her phone and showed Barry her blog. There were new pictures of a second streak, this one, a purple one. "There have been reports of a new super-whatever saving people around the city, in a flash. This is real, Barry."

Barry looked away from her. 'What do I tell her?' Barry asked him self, looked kinda frantic.

If she knew what he and his sister were the streaks it could put her in danger. It's probably best for her to stay out of it altogether. That's what Joe would want. "Are you sure you should be looking into this?" He ask not looking at her but at a wall.

"Your whole life you wanted me to believe in the impossible and now I finally do, you're telling me not to look into it. I don't understand you." Iris left before Barry could think of a response. "I'll be at home when you want to tell me what's going on." She called over to him from across the shop.

Charlie's POV

"Iris started a blog about me and the other speedster," announced Barry. "She's calling me 'the RED STREAK'".

I caught Cisco's eye and shook my head. He wanted to name him. And he was the one to help me last night when I was ordered by Wells and Barry to stay home.

I hasn't told them I was out, and this was something Cisco realized. "Wait, there's another one?" He asked, playing it cool.

Barry nodded. "I saw them when I ran around the cyclone. They have purple lightning. They helped me so whoever they are, they're one of the good guys." He looked over at me, then Dr. Wells did the same thing, but he had more of an amused glint in his eyes. I bobbed my head down in guilt. I wasn't suppose to be out there last night.

"I have to say, I like the name. The Flash," said Cisco, accompanying it with a dramatic hand gesture. He was trying to take of some of the pressure of my brother scrutinizing glare off my back.

"Yeah, now that's pretty cool," agreed Barry absentmindedly looking away from me.

In order to not appear suspicious, I pulled out my phone. "I'll see what I can find about this other speedster," I said. It was a new experience, scrolling through blurry pictures of myself.

Barry came over to me. "Are you okay. You seem a little...off." Yep he knew it was me.

I glanced up from my phone. "Why would you say that? I'm fine." I backed out of the room and stumbled into the wall. "I'd better go, you know stuff to do and all that..." and I hightailed it outta there.

Third Person's POV

"That was weird," commented Cisco trying to not look suspicious or guilty. He was the one to give Charlie her suit when he knew Barry and Dr. Wells wanted her to stay home. He was also covertly sending Charlie commands through the earpiece too.

"Yeah," Barry sighed. "Or she knows, I know she wasn't where she should've been last night." He said still looking to where his sister had legged it from.

He then jumped a mile high when his phone rang. "Oh, hey Joe. Everything alright?"

"Great. I got a fresh crime scene, dead body, detectives interviewing witnesses, miles of that yellow tape stretched over everything. I'm only missing one thing. Can you guess what that is?" asked Joe.
