Sweet Sister | Barry Allen [ 1 ]

Chapter 17

Lana

I look at the news about the metahuman who has been destroying Central city.

I knew it.

I knew the flash would fail this city sooner or later.  I stood watching as the breaking news came on. The meta was getting ready to bring down yet another building. I couldn't help but sit at the edge of my seat watching the screen waiting for a flash of red. Shade curled up beside me watching the TV as I did as if she also was waiting for the flash to save the day.

"Let's just get one thing straight, we don't root for the flash." i tell her

She meowed in return and licked my hand. I smiled at her as I ran my fingers through her soft fur.

Reaching for my phone I found myself frowning noticing I haven't got any calls from Barry. I knew I was the one to say that we weren't going anywhere so I shouldn't think he would be calling me anytime soon. I kept calling Caitlin's phone but she wouldn't answer either. And I looked around and didn't find Josh.

I pulled Shade onto my lap watching her curl comfortably, "Where are the people you love when you need them" I mutter to myself

No one was answering my calls, they all ignored me and I couldn't help but feel left out. I couldn't help but feel like they were keeping something from me. I turned to the TV to see the meta human directing a message to the new flash who had fought him.

"Let's see how fast he is central city" the meta says before punching through the ground forcing a quake to make a building shake

The building was beginning to fall until a flash of light kept running back in and out taking people out. I watched as the building hit the ground and the new flash ran away.

"Very interesting" I say

Once I had lied around for too long I placed Shade on the sofa and stood up. I grab my shoes and make my way to my car. I was going to STAR labs to know what exactly was going on. The flash was gone and in his place stood a new one. I thought that maybe Caitlin could use my help.

I hadn't sat around with nothing to do in so long. I didn't even know how to take time off. It had been a while and all I knew was that I've been wanting some action. It's been a while since I've actually put on my suit and it was about time I did something good for a change.

I thought that maybe I could take the chance to ask about Barry. If anyone knew what was going on with him it would be her. Just because I chose to not be with him didn't mean we couldn't be friends.

I parked my car and got off walking into star labs. When I got to the main room I saw Caitlin and Iris standing around.

"Lana" Caitlin says looking at me
