What Brings Us Together (A Ralph Dibny/ The Flash Fan-Fiction)

Chapter One: Gee, Where Do I Begin

~~~SIX MONTHS LATER~~~

"I can't find her, guys." Wally reported, coming to a stop in the middle of the street.

"Aw, I gotta work out more." Cisco added, breaching in a few feet behind him.

"Laura, you got anything?" I kicked off of a building, propelling myself upwards.

"Nothing yet. This girl has hardcore stepped up her game." I answered, pushing my hair out of my face.

"Then let's turn up ours." Joe said, his police car driving beneath me, siren wailing. "I don't have eyes on her. Iris?"

"Copy, I'm on it." Iris' voice said. Since Barry left, she had taken on the role of our new team leader. "Looking...got her."

"And?" I asked. 

"Duck!"

"I don't see no duck."  Wally answered. I face palmed as our Meta punched Wally in the face, then Cisco.

"Peekaboo." She said. I flew down and full force, driving my feet into her back sending her down.

"Right back at ya." I replied.

"Your only warning. Stay back." She disappeared and I landed next to the boys.

"She meant the other Duck." Wally realized.

"Ya think?" I questioned.

"I cannot beleive you actually thought she meant a duck, duck."

"Where is she, Iris?' Joe asked.

"She's headed for the Keystone bridge. IF she gets out of the city, we're gonna lose her for good. You guys have to stop her now." I kicked up, rocketing into the air and heading for the bridge.

"Oh, I'ma catch her this time." Wally replied.

"I hate teleporters." Cisco threw in. As we flew over buildings I watched as Wally ran after her and they'd meet, her disappearing every few seconds, like a game of Cat and Mouse.

"She jumps to every third rooftop."

"She Jumps to every third rooftop." Iris and I realized at the same time. "Cisco, Laura, she's gonna jump to the Broome Tower. When She lands, stop her."

"On it." I replied.

"Dad, meet them at the bottom."

"Copy."

I flew down as quickly as I could, Meta-handcuffs at the ready. 

"Wally-"

"I know what to do." I hovered over the rooftop just as Cisco breached through. Wally's yellow lightening zipped up and down every building and Cisco got ready, opening a breach. She appeared and I crafted a forcefield, holding her in place until Wally got there, tackling her through the breach, with Cisco and I following him. We hit the ground in the ally, rolling across the pavement.  She got to her feet, aiming two guns our way.

"Dead bang, fellas." However, she didn't get the chance to do anything as a meta boot clamped around her leg, electrocuting her and knocking her to the ground as the rest of the police showed up. Joe stood behind her, gun in hand, wearing his aviators and looking like an action hero. I laughed.

"Look at that. We got her." Cisco stated.

Joe, Cisco, Wally and I rode up in the elevator to STAR Labs together.
