Luke looks around as black smoke strikes up from his clothes.
King Golthan- "Ladies and Gentlemen the Legend is true. (Everyone looks) The king of speed is alive and he's standing right in front of us."
King Golthan looks at Luke and walks up to him.
King Golthan- "You are the chosen one Voltage. He chose you, no. He has seen you as a threat. Will you help us?"
Luke Harris- (Looking around) "I can't be the one to beat that monster, I'm not fast enough. Hell, I was barely fast enough to beat Comet."
Francois looks up and runs to the front of the group.
Francois- "Mr. Harris..."
King Golthan- (Kneeling) "Mr. Voltage please we need your help against that monster."
Luke Harris- "Did you not see what he did to Bolt over there? He killed him right in front of us and we didn't even see it. I'm sorry I'm not the one who can save you."
Luke begins walking away only to get stopped by Accelerate.
Accelerate- "Luke, we need you. We can help you get faster."
Luke Harris- "How?"
{The Hospital, Earth}
Lia sleeps soundly in the bed while a doctor checks her pulse. Michael sits in the waiting room drinking coffee while Jerry and Henry walk up to her with flowers. Michael looks up then stands up while placing her cup on a table next to the chair.
Henry Jordans- "How's she doing?"
Michael Harris- "She's doing fine, she's sleeping right now."
Jerry- (Handing the flowers to Michael) "These are for her."
Michael Harris- "I bet she'll like them."
Jerry- "They're begonias."
Michael Harris- (Smiles slightly) "Thank you, Jerry."
Henry Jordans- "Any word from Luke lately?"
Michael Harris- "No. I hope he gets back in case anything happens to Lia."
In Lia's room, the heart monitor begins beeping rapidly as Lia's body begins jerking in the bed. In the waiting room, doctors and nurses run down the hallway passing Michael, Jerry, and Henry. They turn in worry and run after the doctors and nurses to Lia's room. Upon entering Michael runs to Lia's bedside only to get pulled away by a nurse, she tries fighting off the nurse with tears running down her face only for another nurse to pull her out of the room. While the nurses push Henry away he sees a black figure with glowing red eyes on a building across the street. The figure looks at Henry then disappears with a trail of silver lightning behind him.
In the waiting room, Henry pulls up his cell phone and dials in a number. It rings for a moment then a voice begins talking as a voice message. "This is Nathan Jones and Megan Topps, sorry we can't get to the phone. Please leave your name and number and we'll get back to you later."
Henry Jordans- "Nathan, I think I found someone who you might be looking for. Call me back, goodbye."
Henry hangs up the phone and looks out the window while Jerry tries comforting Michael.
{The Speedvault}
In the speed kingdom, Luke sits on a table shirtless with a machine hooked up to his chest, back, and abdomen. The machine beeps with every breath he took, Francois walked up to him with a tablet and shows him a screen with vitals on it.
