The Flash

Chapter 17 ♡

I turned to my side as I laid still on the couch, as if I moved, Ava would burst through the door at any moment. What would she think about the Flash getting me? What would she think about my nose randomly bursting in blood?

I let out a quick sigh pulling myself into a sitting position. I have to face her. Maybe I can explain the truth? No. Doubtful, Caitlin and Cisco would never allow me to.

At that moment two light pecks at the door filled the room. Was Iris expecting a visitor? I walked over peeping my eye into the hole through the door. It was a guy, he had black scruffy hair with a sharp jawline. He seemed almost my age.

This is not the time for some random kid to come over to the house, I'm dealing with something. I swung open the door, "Iris isn't here." I gave a apologetic smile.

"Oh-n-" they readjusted thier hands in thier pockets, "I'm not here for her." His words seemed to stumble out. Why was he nervous? "Oh
Barry's not here either actually, can I leave a message?"

He shook his head slowly, "Um, is this, um. Is a girl named Emma, live here? I was directed here, I can go-" his words caught me off gaurd.

"Yes, that's me? Why?" His face seemed to relax a little. "I've been trying to find you, I was told you lived in Greens." I opened the door allowing him to come in. I pushed it shut staring at the floor. "Why have you been looking for me?" A lump got caught in my throat.

Was this my first supervillan? How did they learn my hometown? How do they know who I am? "Well, see." He sat slowly on the couch, "My mother died, a long bit back." I sat down on the opposite side.

"Oh, I'm sorry." But I didn't understand how it affected me. "My dad did to, I think so? But I also had a sister. Liz, she died in a car crash." My eyes widened. They know my whole story! I stood abruptly, "Who are you?" His eyes widened at me.

"I think I'm your brother." His words made my heart pause. On the other Earth, I had a brother. Is it possible?

"I'm Mika." He let a akward smile escape his lips. I didn't know how to respond, my body was just simply frozen in place. At that moment a alert buzzed from my phone. Flash needs some help.

"Okay, I have to go. Just- just don't move. Stay." I waved my hands in the air like he was a dog, "Okay?" He whsiperd as I jogged out of the door. Soon as my feet hit the concrete I was gone.

"What's going on?" I aksed quickly, electricity was buzzing in my veins. "There's a meta. She can control people's minds, I need help with this one." The Flash spoke as Cisco tossed me some sort if metal box.

"Wear this on your temple, it will help the mind control." I nodded putting it on my forehead as Flash did the same. I ran into my suit, I could get used to this.

"Ready?" Flash asked. I nodded as I ran out, I loved the feeling of running, and being able to run with someone else is even more amazing. But, I can't help but wonder what kind of face the green eyed Flash has.

The lightning bounced around my feet, sparkling in pure energy.

When we got to the place, there was a girl holding some sort of metalic box. "What is that?" I asked quietly.

"Oh please, just ask me!" The lady yelled, yea. There's our enemy. "Put it down!" Really Emma, I thought

"Let's get to it hunny. One step and I push this button, it's connected to 5 bombs throughout the city. I doubt you can run that fast." She wore a grimacing smile, her teeth seemed yellowed to.

"What do you want?" The Flash yelled, holding his hands up.

"Hmmm. Let's see." She wore a look of longing. "Take off what ever you're using to dampen my powers on you." I laughed, but her face was serious.

"Do you want me to press the button?!" Her thumb hoverd over the controller. "No! Okay!" I quickly clicked off my dampener.

The Flashs eyes widened, "What are you doing?" I tossed it onto the ground, "Trying not to get killed." I mutterd.

Her eyes locked on mine as I could feel my head tilt, "Now, who are you?" Her words rung in my head.

"I'm. Um." My eyebrows scrunched, "Who, are you?" Her voice was leading, "I'm nobody." A smile formed on her red lips, "Wow, a hero with, what is that? Depression?" Her lips curled and never stoped.

"Okay, now. Come closer." I took a few slow steps, "Hey, E, stop!" Flash yelled. I had no nickname so 'E' it is? But he was right, what was I doing? But it felt as my body was well, being controlled. Is this what mind control feels like?

"Okay, now." The villan took a few slow steps, no doubt plotting something. "Tell me, just who is The Flash?" Her words made my head feel fuzzy.

"I don't know." I whispered, who is he? I want to know to. I mean yea, green eyes, brown hair. But what's his name, his personality?

"How do you not know? You work with him!" She turned to the guy, "Take off your dampner. Now!" What's her deal?

"No." He breathed. "Okay fine, Flash. If you don't, I'll kill your sidekick." Her hand reached to me grabbing my wrist. as she snapped out a pocketknife, hovering it over my throat. I'm amazed she didn't even take off my mask, if she 'wants to know' who I am so bad.

His hands went into the air as his eyes grew sizes, "Okay! Don't hurt her!" He clicked off his damper

Authors note:

I have so many ideas for this book, but no inspiration to write them. Sorry I took forever to post such a little chapter. Whoopsie.
