fallen (Barry Allen)

two

Six months.

It had been six months. Six months since she breathed. Six months since she ate or drank. Six months since Quinn had opened her eyes. The Particle explosion had stopped the beating of her heart completely.

Her entire body was cut, bruised and battered. Yet, the only thing that truly hurt was her heart. Nobody was there. Just herself. No Iris. No Barry. Nobody had came to see why she disappeared for six months. Nobody had called, texted, wrote a letter. Absolutely nothing. But, that didn't matter to Quinn.

Whether people cared about her or not Barry, Iris, and Joe were her family. There had to be a reason why nobody had checked up on her. Maybe the explosion had distracted them. Maybe something came up. No matter the excuse they wouldn't ditch her.

Quinn rose from the ground wiping off all the glass that wasn't planted in her skin and headed down stairs. She needed water and a burger. She hadn't had any food or liquid since the explosion. When she got down the stairs, very slowly, a man sat on her couch. The man smiled when he saw her and got up and hugged her.

"Oh thank God. Wells would have killed me if you were dead." He released her and grabbed her forearm dragging her across the tiny one bedroom apartment. "Lets go , so Wells knows I did a good job."

Quinn stopped walking and ripped her arm from his grip. She examined him and noticed he was around her age, with longer shoulder length hair, and a pedo stache. "Who the hell are you and how did you get in my apartment?" At this point, she was hysterical. She had no idea who this man was, her friends never checked on her, and she just came back from the dead.

"Yea, I should have started with that. Name is Cisco, I am a Libra, I work for Dr.Wells at S.T.A.R Labs, and I have coming every day at the same time for the past six months. You didn't lock it before the explosion."

He grabbed Quinn's arm and started pulling her to her door once again, but once again she pulled back. Cisco rolled his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose. "Okay, look. Wells wants you back at the Labs so he can make sure you are okay from the explosion. We go now?"

Quinn shrugged her shoulders and followed him out the door. On the way down the stairs Cisco abruptly stopped walking and turned around. He took in her appearance and sighed. "I just realized we can't take you out with glass protruding from your, well, everywhere." Cisco took off his hoodie and put it on Quinn. He reached behind her and yanked the hood up, pulling the strings tight.

"Now you don't look like you were just in a bar fight."

"Well Ms.Hernandez, it looks like your body heals at an exponential rate. Your brain seismic brain activity is high and your chromosomes are tripled. How are your senses?" Wells turned away from the screen that had all of Quinn's charts on it.

"I don't know. Why?" Quinn grabbed the blanket that was wrapped around her curvy figure and pulled it closer.

"Catch."

Before Quinn could process what the hell was going on an extremely sharp pencil was thrown straight at her. Quinn's hands instantly went to cover her face.

"Remarkable." Wells rolled his chair over and examined the situation in front of him. The pencil was suspended mid air and Quinn was the one doing it.

"Telekinesis and Quantum Field Theory. Scientists have been trying to prove that telekinesis and psychokinesis is a logical thing. It seems that whatever you were doing when the Particle Accelerator went off ,had time to get into your blood stream, attack your red and white blood cells, then continued onto your chromosomes tripling them. Ms. Quinn you are truly remarkable."

Quinn dropped her hand back down under the blanket making the pencil roll away from her body. "Let me get this straight. You think that because I fell on a bunch of chemicals, laid dead for six months, that my chromosomes tripled. Which then attacked my blood cells making me a what? Superhero?"

Wells sat staring at the young adult nodding his head at every thing she said. "Seems so."

Caitlin, who introduced herself, got up from where she was sitting and put a hand on Quinns shoulder. "We have somebody you might want to see." The red head and brunette walked into a room very similar to the one she was sitting in when being examined. Only difference was there was a giant treadmill in the middle of the room. In the corner a familiar body turned around.

"Quinn?"

"Barry? Barry!" Quinn went running to where the scientist was standing and engulfed him in a giant hug. "Ow."

Barry and Quinn released from each other then, Quinn hit him. She was enraged. He left her.

"You ass hole! Where were you? I thought you were my best friend! I laid dead in my apartment for six months only to come here and find out I'm some sort of super hero. Where were you and Iris? I woke up to find nobody was there besides Cisco , who I didn't even know until a few hours ago. No one cared that I was laying dead in my own house for six months. I thought you were my best friend."

Quinn stopped raging and wiped a tear off of her cheek. She was not gonna cry over Barry. And she was not gonna show weakness. Barry hugged the fragile girl and sighed.

"Harley, you know you're my best friend and I love you with my entire heart. But, I was here in a coma for the past six months." The girl pulled away from him and sniffled. "What about Iris and Joe? Where were they?"

"I don't know Harles. I don't know."
