I'm an Excuse

This is inspired by the latest chapter of Iron Girl that my friend and I are writing on Prongs_and_Moony This will not be put into the book, please note that Cloud is not my OC.

   My cell phone started ringing. I had it set to vibrate while it rang, so it vibrated my whole left leg. I glanced down at my pocket and debated whether it was worth answering. It probably was, since the only people that ever called my cell phone were Barry, Cisco, Saila, Caitlin, and Jay.

   I shifted into a position on my couch so I could reach my phone. I pulled it out and checked the screen. Cloud.

   I smiled and pressed the answer button. "Hey there Cloud! How's it going?"

   "Hi Skye," Cloud said. "I need you to be in my area right now."

   I got up and started grabbing my technology bag and bracelets. "Sure. What for?"

   "This is going to sound crazy, but I need you as an excuse because I have to get to the Avengers Tower and I have to be there for a couple hours so..." Cloud trailed off.

   I paused. "Avengers Tower?" I looked out my apartment window, quickly finding the large A on the side of the tower. "What do you need to come here for?"

   "Training with Tony... I kind of have this suit that-"

   I felt a grin spread across my face. "Stop right there. I'm in. I'll be there in less than a minute."

   "Thanks."

   I hung up and dropped my phone into my bag. Lets make Saila happy as can be. I smirked and tossed a bright green ball into the air, focusing on my speed as it started to fall. It froze just as it started to fall.

   I carefully called on the speed force, like Saila had taught me, and ran out the door. My ears popped as I hurried down the stairs. I had to hold back a sonic boom until I was safely out of the city.

   Wisconsin was a long ways away, but as long as I didn't loose concentration time would stand almost completely still for me. When I eventually would reach Cloud's house, it would only technically be six seconds since I'd hung up the phone. Running this way was dangerous. If I spent too much time, say a full day in real time, I would have lived it like over a year. Each second was an hour approximately.

   In that way I could age faster than normal people, but if I didn't always focus this hard, I would live life like a normal person.

   I stopped just in front of Cloud's driveway. Cloud wasn't outside. A lawnmower sat in the middle of a half mowed yard. I smiled and walked down the driveway.

   I could see through a window as I walked up the three stairs to the door. I knocked, readjusting the bag on my shoulder. I remembered this house from years ago and couldn't get over how much it had changed.

   The door opened and Cloud's mom looked at me. "Yes?"

   She didn't give any indication she remembered me. "Hi. I'm Skye Allen. I'm here to pick up Cloud for a girls day."

Taalina you're probably glad I didn't write this in our book. I would have left you with a cliffhanger. You can expect a very very different chapter in Iron Girl.

If you have any requests for characters or shorts let me know and I'll try to do them!

May the speed force be with you! Don't let anyone crash your mode! (I have not watched YJ but I make it my business to know about Flash things)

I made a couple references too. 1. Jay (Earth 2's Flash) 2. "Stop right there. I'm in." ~Barry Allen, Justice League Movie Trailer. :D
