This one is mine! This is not stolen and the idea is not based off of someone else's.
Enjoy~!
You walked into the popular coffee shop. As usual, it was slightly packed. You stood in line patiently and looked around. Examining faces and studying people. That's what you liked to do, a sort of people watching. Some may find it weird, but you find it ... relaxing. Trying to figure someone out just by looking at them was somewhat calming.
Before long, you were up. You quickly scanned the menu above and decided to get the famous Flash coffee. You really didn't know what it was called, but you decided to try it out. It was kind of ridiculous to name a drink after a superhero, but then again, it kinda wasn't. Considering he has done so many great things.
After you paid for your drink and received it, you look around and search for an empty place to sit. As you look around, your eyes catch a group of people sitting at one booth. A brown haired girl, a guy with some pretty cool hair, and Barry Allen. You've always had a slight crush on him. He was so cute, you just couldn't resist. It was to bad he didn't know you though. You both graduated from the same school, but he never noticed you. So you both parted your separate ways. Though you never forgot him. He catches you staring and smiles politely. You blush and quickly look away, you finally find a place to sit .. right beside the booth where the three were sitting.
You inhale sharply and release your breath slowly. Well, it's not like anything is going to happen, right? You take your seat and avoided looking at the table. You heard them talking and laughing when suddenly it quiets down. Curious, you glance up, only to see Barry gone, and the other two quickly leaving.
You frown slightly and sigh, you knew nothing would have happened, but it didn't hurt to dream. Right? A little while later you finish your coffee and make your way towards the exit when a sudden boom sounds. Everyone in the cafe screams in surprise and you stumble forward and onto the street. You gasp and quickly scramble backwards just in time to miss a flying car. Your eyes widen and you see a meta human a few meters from you. He seemed to be made out of... metal? You clench your jaw and slowly start to inch away. Your hands began to heat up and flames started dancing around you. You were a meta human with the power to control and make fire. Ever since the particle accelerator exploded, you have been able to do things with fire.
It scared you at first, but you were able to control it under some extent after a while. Though, you were no where in actual control. You were just able to manage it.
The man spots you trying to get away and fear flashes across your eyes. He smirks slightly and runs towards you, suddenly The Flash appears a little ways away from the both of you and he takes a defensive stance.
"Leaver her alone! She has nothing to do with this!" The Flash shouts.
He smirks and grabs your arm roughly.
"Oh on the contrary my dear enemy. She does." He sneers and wraps his arm around you neck. Fear flashes across your eyes and the Flash smiles slightly at you.
"It's going to be ok." He says to you softly. You just stay there frozen with your hands on the metal man's arm that is wrapped around you. His grip tightens and tears start to well up. Panic starts to settle in and you could feel yourself fading in and out. As well as your control over your power starting to dwindle.
Each time the Flash went to attack, the man used you as a shield. Rendering him unable to do much.
"I am going to kill you." The metal man sneers into your ear. And that's when... you lost it.
Fresh and hot tears spring out as the tiny flames got bigger and your body turned red hot.
"No!" You shout with fear and anger.
With a yell you muster all of your strength and burst into a brilliant flame. The metal man shouts in pain and let's you go, stumbling back. You fall to your knees as you began to feel dizzy and lightheaded from the sudden outburst. The Flash uses your distraction as a way to trap the metal man and keep him from being able to move. Your clothes fall off because of the flames as you fall to the cold concrete. Your breathing becomes ragged and you look at your hands through your tears. They were covered in flames and you felt your body's heat died down. You give a shaky sigh and your eyes close. And all you see is black.
~A few hours later~
You wake up slowly and you hear a faint beeping sound. Your vision slowly clears up and you are finally able to see. You notice you are laying down and look at your arms and hands. There is a needle in your wrist and your eyes widen. Quickly ripping the needle out, you shakily sit up and look around. It looks like your in a, lab? Fear slowly starts to seep in as your heart rate speeds up. Little flames start to dance until three people come rushing in from the door. Wild expressions masked their features and you recognize them from the cafe. What the hell are they doing here? You shakily stand up and back away.
"Wh-What am I doing here?" You ask in a small voice. "Why am I here? What is happening?" You ask with an uneasy stomach.
Barry Allen steps up with his hands in front of him. He slowly walks towards you and starts speaking softly."
"Y/N, it's ok. I'm Barry Allen. These are my friends Caitlin and Cisco. We are here to help you control and manage your powers."
You look between the three of them with frantic eyes. Caitlin offers you a small smile and Cisco gives you a sympathetic one. For some reason, you decided to believe him. If they wanted you dead, you would have been by now.
"O-Ok... why am I here?" You ask, slightly calmer now.
"Well, before you.. ripped the needle out.. we were monitoring your heart rate and vital signs. You are completely fine. Well, besides the fact that you can control fire." Caitlin interjects while walking towards you. You nod and she starts taking off the things attached you, provided the hospital gown you have on.
You look down and notice you were only in the gown, you blush furiously and step behind Caitlin. Barry's eyes widen and Cisco blushed lightly. They both clear their throats awkwardly and shuffle out. You laugh slightly and Caitlin smiles at you.
"Come on, let's get you into some real clothes." You nod and smile slightly. Though there are a thousand questions swirling in your mind, you decided that you could get used to this.
Sorry this was a bit long.
