Chapter 10

       Allison sat down at her usual lunch table, Lydia across from her. Stiles must be off somewhere, texting Derek because he was usually already there. Beside Lydia was Jackson and Erica and Boyd, and beside Allison was Isaac, Theo, Hayden and Liam. She noticed that, like he had been since he broke up with her, Scott wasn't sitting with them. He was probably out in the hall, eating with Kira.

       "So, Stiles said that Derek had to tell him something important and then he would be right back. What do you think it was?" Lydia said, jumping right into the conversation.

       "Who knows." Allison shrugged.

       "Is this seat taken?" Allison looked up in surprise. Barry was standing beside her, smirking.

       "No, not yet." She smiled. Barry nodded and sat down.

       "Who are you?" Jackson asked. Barry turned to him.

       "Barry Allen." Barry answered. Jackson nodded.

       "You're the new kid."

       "Guys, pack meeting tonight at six. Derek want everyone there. Said to bring Barry too." Stiles said as he sat down beside Lydia.

       "Why does he have to come to the pack meeting?" Jackson asked rudely.

       "I know about the black blur that's been running around." Barry answered. Not everyone knew he was the Flash. Lydia, Stiles, and Allison knew, but everyone else was in the dark as of yet.

       "Okay, at six remember." Stiles said, we all nodded.

       Allison came and picked Barry up for the pack meeting.

       "I could have run you know." Barry said as he got in her car.

       "I do know that, but I don't think that you should reveal yourself as the Flash that way. Tell them without all of the flare." She replied. She pulled away from his apartment and toward the newly renevated Hale house.

       "So you suggest that I tell them?" Barry asked, getting comfortable.

       "I do. My pack is very trust worthy, but just so you know, they might act a little crazy at the begining." Allison answered.

       "Crazy how?" he asked.

       "They might think that its your fault that Zoom is here. Then once we explain that you're here to stop him, then they will trust you. But even if they don't trust you, your identity is safe. That's not something you have to worry about." Allison said. She turned down the road to the Hale property and moments later they were there.

       "Okay, I'm nervous." Barry said softly.

       "Don't be. And they can hear you." Allison smiled.

       "Right, I forgot about that little bit." Allison only laughed at him. She grabbed his arm and dragged him up the porch steps. Once they were inside and settled Derek began to talk.

       "Okay, thanks to the Argent's, we have a way to take care of the beast and save the teenager that happens to have gotten the short stick in the deal." Derek said. "So we're here to talk about handling the beast and taking care if this black blur that's running around. Barry, I heard you have information on the blur."

       "Yes. His name is Zoom and he's from my town. But there are a few things Allison said I should share with you before I got into that. Firstly, I work for Central City Police Department, I'm their CSI. I'm 25 years old and I'm only here to stop Zoom. And also I'm the Flash." Barry explained.

       "Wait, so you lied to everyone and pretended to be a highschool student just to stop this guy?" Scott asked. It was the first time that Allison really noticed that he was here.

       "It was the only way I could think of to lay low so Zoom wouldn't know I followed him here." Barry answered.

       "He's telling the truth." Isaac piped up. Scott's eyes turned red.

       "I don't care. I don't feel like I can trust this guy. How do we know he's not working with Zoom." Scott growled.

       "I'm not. There was a time when Zoom was posing as someone I thought I could trust, but then he revealed himself as Zoom. I've been trying to stop him ever since." Barry answered. "He's killed too many people. He's needs to be stopped."

       "I don't like you. I don't like how you've been hanging around Allison. She's mine." Scott's voice rose. Allison's eyes widened.

       "Excuse me!" Allison exclaimed.

       "To my understanding, you're the guy who broke Allison's trust. I don't think you have the right to call her yours when you outright cheated on her." Barry said calmly.

       "I thought we had something special Scott. You said you broke up with Allison. I didn't know you cheated on her. Stay away from me Scott, we're done." Kira said softly, she looked at Allison, tears in her eyes. "I'm so sorry." Kira stood and ran out of the room.

       "You fucking asshole! You lied to Kira too!" Allison almost screamed. Scott right away took his anger out on Barry. He shifted and ran for him, raising a clawed hand to slash at him, but the second Scott's hand started to come down, there was a gust of wind and Barry was on the other side of the room.

       "Scott! Either calm down or you can leave!" Derek yelled, his alpha voice far louder than Scott's had ever been.

       "I'll leave. I can't be around you people." Scott growled and left the house. It was quiet for a moment, until someones phone went off. Barry reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone.

       "Cisco? What's up?" Barry asked. Suddenly Barry turned pale. "No...No please tell me it isn't him." Cisco must not have given him the right answer because seconds later Barry was gone, leaving only a gust of wind and a trail of lightning in his wake.
