Chris P.O.V.

"Hey." Barry says to me. By now, my dad moved out of the doorway, and wandered back into the living room.

"Hey." I tell him, stepping outside into the hallway. "What's up?" I ask. I wonder how he got here, and also how he knew where I lived. Of course, Dr. Wells could have always told him, but that doesn't seem like something Barry would do. 

"Umm, you were struck by lightning from the particle accelerator, correct?" I give him a small nod. "Did you happen to experience any, you know, side affects after you woke up from the coma? You know, anything, abnormal?"

I stand there, speechless. What do I say? I can't reveal to him that I have powers, in case he doesn't have any, but from the way he's talking, it sounds like he has them. 

"Like, what do you mean, abnormal?" I ask, trying to hide the falter in my voice. 

"Like this." Barry grabs me by my jacket, and speeds off, taking me to what I assume is S.T.A.R. Labs. We stop just outside, and Barry looks at me. "Is that a good example?"

I nod furiously, and then run in circles around the lot. When I get back to Barry, his face is in complete and utter shock, and his hands are running through his hair.

"So you do have powers! I knew it! But, the question is, how? I mean, I fell into the chemicals in my lab, but what happened to you?" 

"I'm not sure. I was right outside this place though." I say, gesturing to the building. "If that helps."

"C'mon. Let's go find the others, they'll know what to do."
