Tapping into the police radio. [color=6ecff6]“Disturbance on Wheeler-Nicholson bridge, evacuate the area some form of meta-human appears to be attacking.”[/color] With that she disengaged comms, the air rushing past her. She could feel it with every breath, she could feel the lightning coursing through her body and pushing her forward. By running, she was set free and set adrift from everyone else. How could this not be her destiny? She couldn’t imagine not having this power. This was what she was meant to do. She knew it, deep down. Iris would beat him one day, make him eat his words… or was this all a trick? To get under her skin. She shook her head, she couldn't’worry about this now. She had to stop the [i]latest[/i] threat to Central City. Well, this time to Central City [i]and[/i] Keystone. Considering that the bridge was the main conduit of traffic between the two sister cities. She turned the corner to the view of carnage. Police cruisers overturned and in flames, people cowering in fear and cracked pavement. Before the bridge stood a man in a red costume, his fists glowing with energy as he ran at a police officer… [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/D3V83BO.png[/img][/center] Time froze as Iris noticed who the police officer was. [i]Her Father[/i]. She took to running again, kicking up dust behind her as the electricity coursed through her veins. Time seemed to slow for her, she was a blur to everything and everyone around her. She ran shoulder first into the man in red, and while he did get knocked back Iris definitely felt like she took a lot more of the blow than he did. Pain shooting through her shoulder as she rolled away to get a better look at the man. The get up screamed technology, rather than being an actual meta-human. The backpack was the biggest giveaway, what he was after she couldn’t quite say though it seemed like a hell of a coincidence that this guy was punching stuff up while there was a killer on the loose who had proven himself to be extremely strong. Just then she heard a faint clicking noise in her suit. For a second she struggled to think what it could be, then she realised. It was the geiger counter, whatever this guy could do he was radioactive. This meant that she probably didn’t want to prolong this fight, while her cells could probably heal the damage before it was done there were still innocent people nearby and she had no idea what kind of output this man could have. [color=ed1c24]“Now, who are you?”[/color] His voice was gravelly. Old. Despite his quick movements and his strength this wasn’t someone young she was fighting, there were years behind that voice. He stood braced facing her, ready for another attack. She was busy scanning the surrounding area, making sure no-one was in the conflict zone. She could hear the helicopters and police cars in the distance approaching, at this point they usually left the fighting up to her but they’d be useful in setting up a cordone to prevent anyone from walking into trouble. [color=f7976a]“Haven’t you heard? I’m the Flash.”[/color] She was expecting a name drop, or perhaps even a clever quip. She was expecting a thousand and one possible things, the one thing she wasn’t expecting however was that he [i]laughed[/i]. Genuinely broke into laughter, and that gave her pause. Standing up straight, she couldn’t quite believe what was going on. [color=ed1c24]“Really, you’re the Flash? No. Come on, where is he. Where’s the Flash?”[/color] Again, [i]he[/i]. What was with all this about a male Flash? She ran at him, ducking under his right hook and planting a blow to his lower abdomen. As she punched him her fist made contact with some form of armour, though she didn’t let it phase her. Ducking below his wild left swing she punched the centre of his back. [color=f7976a]“Why? Am I not good enough for you?”[/color] She moved around again, planning to aim for his face but he stuck a leg out causing her to tumble. On her back the man stood above her, his fist starting to emit more of a glow. As it came down she rolled away at the last second, jumping up and then running around till she was clear. Standing up straight he scanned the area for her. [color=ed1c24]“It’s nothing like that [i]Flash[/i]-”[/color] He said it with such disdain[color=ed1c24] “-you just aren’t the one I was looking for. What are you? His daughter?”[/color] She ran at him again, at speed. As the distance closed she noticed his stance begin to change, jumping over to the left she moved to grab his right arm. Mistake. He turned and with surprising speed clocked her in the side of her head with his left fist. Thrown off balance she went tumbling into a nearby car. The world became a blur, trying to look up the street she saw something coming up behind her foe.

[color=f7976a]“That’s not possible.”[/color] Then the whole world went black.
