Rapids (AU) [Completed]

14

After two more rounds of that, I finally get to use my powers.

"Now Chris, to be able to compare this to our normal tests, you'll only have five minutes to run, but don't try to run as fast as possible." Cisco tells me. I nod, and hop back on the treadmill. 

*Time skip presented to you by tired author who should be in bed but isn't*

When I get off the treadmill, I'm not as tired as before, so the rest period in-between is a lot faster. All of us run the same tests twice more, before I'm able to sit down, and listen to the results.

"Well, you've done very good today. Your speed and stamina have both increased from the last time. Your speed went up by a mile, while your stamina, a whole thirty seconds." Dr. Wells says, while Cisco projects the data onto the screens in the Cortex. 

"That's good, right?" I ask. 

Wells nods, then turns out the door and leaves. 

"He doesn't talk much, does he?" I ask Caitlin and Cisco.

"He's all ways thrown himself head-first into his work, ever since Tess." Caitlin stops herself there.

"Who's Tess?" I ask, changing back into my sneakers.

When I look up, both of them have solemn faces.

"Never mind." And with that, I get up and head home.

Third Person P.O.V.

Harrison Wells is back, standing in the braille room again. He discards his glasses on the seat of his wheelchair, and walks up to the wall. 

"Gideon." He states, with a hint of bitterness in his tone.

"Yes sir." The A.I. responds.

"Pull up my logs."

"Right away, Harrison."
