Speed Demon

The Scarlet Speedster

"Cisco, where's Barry?" a woman asks. A man with long black hair spins around on his chair, "I think he's checking out a meta human crime scene." "You think?!" "Relax Caitlin, Barry can handle himself." A red blur dashed into the room. The Flash stands where the blur stops. "Any clues to who our new speedster is?" Cisco asks Barry. Barry takes his mask off, "he had no idea what I was talking about. This one might as well be a ghost." "Right, so just like Thawne coming back from the dead." "It's never been this hard to find a speedster. He knows exactly what he's doing." "That he does," a strange voice says. Barry turns to see the monitor standing next to a computer. "Who the hell is this guy?!" Caitlin asks. "I'm not here to harm you, Miss Snow. I've come to answer your questions." "You know who the new speedster is?" Cisco asks. "I do and I know what he is planning." "What is his plan?" Barry asks. "To bring a plague to this earth."

I've searched forever to find a place to call home, but I fail to find one. Maybe I was meant to just walk on the streets and do what the monitor tells me to do. I walk along the road until I start to notice something strange in an alleyway. I walk to the alleyway to find the void slowly spreading. I take my mask off, "it probably won't be long until the speed increases." I stare at it for a while and it makes me wonder why it's slowly spreading instead of just swallowing everything like it did on my earth. Either it's because of something with the portal that brought me here, or somehow it's being manipulated. If it was manipulation then who would have the power to do something like that? A speedster maybe but I'm probably the only one who knows about this. Maybe the monitor? Could he be the one doing this? All of this only brings me to more questions than answers. I guess my first task should be figuring out how to stop this and then when that's done I can figure out what that cosmic weirdo is up to.
My thoughts were interrupted by trash suddenly moving. I put my mask back on, "Barry Allen I assume." "Who are you and what are you doing here?" The Flash asks. "You can call me Speed Demon. As for this, don't worry I have it covered." "Yeah I'm sure you do considering you're the one who made this." "Wait what?" He runs over and punches me in the face. I fly back hitting the stone wall. I run to him and I punch him into the water. We start running around the city hitting and kicking each other. I throw him into a window then I run in to punch him again. He kicks my stomach causing me to fly to the wall and starts punching me again. I grab him and then I throw him out the window. We keep fighting until we end up back in the alleyway. We stop running when Flash is holding me against the wall. "I hope you enjoy prison," he says. I try to escape but I stop when my eyes are at the void. The void's speed increased. I point at the void, "the speed void." Barry looks at it then back at me, "speed void?" I punch his face which causes him to lose his grip of me. I run off to hide and think of a new plan. I'm so tired I have no energy to keep moving. I stop and walk into a coffee shop.

I look around as I walk up to the counter. "This is one weird coffee shop," I say to the man behind the counter. "You're one weird person to come in here and it's not a coffee shop. It's more of a cafe," the man behind the counter says. "Are you not afraid of me?" "No, but I would prefer to hear something better." I take my mask off, "is this better?" "It'll do I guess. Take a seat." A chair suddenly appears next to me. I sit down and the man gives me a cup of coffee. "What brings you here?" he asks. "You wouldn't believe me if I told you." "I've seen a lot more than you would know. I'll believe anything at this point." I sigh, "I was brought back to life by a cosmic idiot who thinks I can stop a inner dimensional void from destroying the earth." The man chuckles, "sounds like you have a lot on your hands." "I do and I can't fix it because I have a speedster on my tail. The Monitor should of picked someone else to do this job." "Mar Novu is a strange one but he doesn't do things without reason." "You know him?" "I know of him." How does a normal guy know the monitor's real name? "What can you tell me about him?" "Only that he's a fool but a smart fool." "How so?" "He split himself in half. One half was pure good and the other was pure evil." "He can do that?" "Yeah, but he lost track of the 'Anti-Monitor.' He's been off the grid for centuries." "What else can you tell me about him?" "He never makes an appearance unless something very bad is going to happen or if he wants something bad to happen." "So there's a chance what I'm doing just helps him start this upcoming crisis?" The man shrugs, "I know a lot but it's not my place to say what is to come." I tilt my head, "you know what's going to happen in the crisis, don't you?" "Yes." "I need to know what happens, please." "All I can say is: make sure you save your voice." I get out of my seat. "You never drank your coffee," the man says. I put my mask on, "I know what I need to do." I run back out to the streets.
