Dawn West-Allen

09

After we left the hospital we went back to CCPD to confirm what we had seen. That purple and yellow blur was Nora running to catch the metal shard from falling. Somehow Nora was a speedster, but to make sure we decide to have a little fun with her newfound powers.

"Okay Catch this!" I said throwing Nora's favorite mug across her office. The yellow and purple Blur appeared and Nora appeared across the room with the mug in her hand." Cool!" I said with a huge smile.

"OH now catch this one!" Lia said throwing The flash bobblehead towards the opposite side of the room.

Once again the purple and yellow blur appeared followed by a thud. Nora appeared against the wall out of breath.

"I'm okay!" Nora said holding the bobblehead.

"You sure?" Lia said giggling.

"Yeah, dude I'm a speedster!" Nora replied.

"This is beyond schway!" I said happily."  how does it feel?"

"All of my nerves are tingling, and my synapse must be going crazy because my reaction times are way off the charts!" she said sitting the Bobblehead next to a framed picture. I noticed Nora starting at the picture, I was sure she was thinking the same thing as me.

"How are we going to explain this to mom?" I asked." first you get hit by lighting now your a speedster, Mom freaks out when she hears the word meta, I don't know what this is going to do her."

Nora Nodded in deep though.

"-Okay well that's understandable!" Lia said drawing our attention onto her."I mean her Non-meta husband died cause of meta's."

"yeah, but writing about the flash, THE meta- human, made her career!"

"So we can't tell her!"Lia said.

"We can't tell anybody!"  Nora agreed." Not until we figure out how I got these powers and I don't think it's a coincidence that this happened after my little run-in with the God of a speed guy.

"Godspeed!" I corrected her.

"right!" Nora replied.

"you mean when Godspeed hit you with his lighting, which according to the flash museum is exactly what happened to-- The flash!" Lia and Nora said in sync.

"10-90 in progress!" Lia and Nora gauntlet voiced.

"Bank Heist!" Nora spoke."Huh!" She said as a grin appeared on her face.

"No-No you can't do that- this is a bad idea, that is like cut your own bangs bad idea!" Lisa argued.

"Yeah, you're still learning to use your powers !"

"I'm just gonna do a little run by, What's the worst that can happen!"

"A lot, You are a CSI, not a superhero!" Lia argued.

"Our jobs are the same as the cops We get the bad guys!" nora agued back." this is just an opportunity to be in the middle of the action."

"I'm still not sure about any of this!" I spoke up as Lia nodded.

"I'm going to be just fine, watch!" Nora said with pleading eyes." i mean how am I supposed to learn how to use my powers if I don't use them!"

"Well, she has a point," I said to Lia agreeing with Nora.

"....all right!" Lia and surrendered." go get them, Flash women, lady flash!" Lia joked causing us all to laugh.

"Purple Flash!"  I added.

"Hot Flash!" Lia said after.

Nora and I both stopped laughing as I shook my head No.

"Okay... not that one," Lisa said in defeat.

"Okay, we're all gonna workshop that later! Until then I have to guard Central City!" Nora said before vanishing before our eyes.

"Wait-Shouldn't she has a mask on?" I questioned. Lia shrugged in response.

Lia and I listened to the officer's reports. After Nora arrived they called for backup listening to them caused Our smiles to slowly disappeared. According to the officers, a purple and yellow blur attacked half of the fleet, Fried their patrols, and the suspects got away with the money. When Nora returned she told us what happened while Lia tried fixing her gauntlet.

"I know today didn't exactly go so great!" Lia said trying to cheer her up.

"Yeah, your not really good at super Heroing!" I said as I stared into space as Nora and Lia stared at me shocked." But hey, you tried your best?" I said awkwardly.

"No, your right!" Nora said as threw herself into her chair next to me." Both robbers got away because of me."

"Well, at least No one got hurt..." I thought about the offices that Nora ran into." -Badly"

Lia mouthed "Not helping!" towards me as I handed her the last piece of Nora's gauntlet.

"But I still feel so bad! Nora said covering her face with her hands.

"You're looking at this all wrong!" Lia said as she handed Nora her gauntlet." today was not Nora's big failure, Today was the femme-flash big debut." Lia said as she sat on The desk.

"the Femme-flash is a terrible name!" I said as Nora made a disgusted face.

"Naming superheroes is not easy!" she replied."I mean how many Superheroes have you two named!" Lia replied.

I didn't say anything back and we all started giggling.

"Lia, dawn, you guys are the best sister and friend a shrappy speedster could ever ask for!" nora said making us smile." but I think we all know that CCPD isn't equipped to stop that godspeed guy, the only way we're gonna catch him before anyone else get hurt is if I start thinking like a villainous speedster."

I furrowed my eyebrows at Nora.

"and how are you going to do that?" Lia asked.

"I'm gonna go see one!" Nora replied as Lia and I tried to figure out who she was talking about.

"You don't mean-the Reverse flash, " Lia said breaking the silence." Please tell me you're not going to see the reverse flash."

Nora slowly nodded her head.

"No, I don't think that's a good idea!" I said nervously ." isn't he in prison, You shouldn't trust a criminal!"

"What am I supposed to do?"  Nora asked.

I opened my mouth to say something but I didn't know what to say, Nora had already made her choice. I was sent home because Nora thought It was best I get some rest since I've been up for almost 24 hours. I changed into my unicorn onesie and sat on the couch to watch tv before I go to bed but I didn't make it three Mins in. I fell into a deep sleep instantly only to be awakened by the doorbell ringing and frantic knocking. I looked at the holographic clock that sat on the fireplace, It read 9:40 p.m. I figured it was probably mom home so I dragged myself off the couch, mentally preparing myself for her look of disappointment or panic.

"Nora?"I said upon opening the door but she didn't answer instead she stared blankly ahead. I rubbed my eyes a little and I noticed her puffy eyes and wet cheeks.

"Lia...Lia is dead!" Nora said softly in a raspy voice.
