ALLOW ME TO DEMONSTRATE." With glowing eyes that matched the fury of his fist, The Surfer turned towards the plane that had once threatened to end Iris West's life as it advanced towards the far distance. With a casual raise of his arm, The Surfer shot out a beam of intense light and directed it towards the right wing of the plane's metal structure. It seperated from the craft in an instant, sending the plane hurtling downward. Even as he could hear the distant screams of the now imperiled passengers, The Surfer coldly glanced back as The Flash as she was still trying to save herself. "RISK YOUR LIFE BY PREVENTING THEIR DEATHS, OR SAVE YOUR LIFE BY ENSURING THEIRS. IT MATTERS NOT. A SACRIFICE SHALL BE MADE THIS DAY." [/sub] [/cell][/row][/table] Iris' feet made contact with the top of the mountain as the bolt struck the wing of the plane. She skidded to an unceremoniously unbalanced stop. "NO!" Panicked her heart race increased as adrenaline and cortisol flooded her system. The plane was on decent but still going at a fair speed, now it wasn't on a straight flight plan but had began to tumble and twist as the shock from the explosion and the lack of two full wings changed it's aerodynamic profile. Turning to run away, essentially, she ran down the mountain. Using the descent to aide her acceleration she was barely half way down it when a sonic boom reverbarated throughout the badlands, the sound amplified by the mountains. The sound likely heard by everyone in the Gem Cities. A trail of snow in her wake as she outraced the avalanche she had caused. Turning in a wide arc at the bottom of the mountain she kept pushing herself faster and faster. Had this not been such a stressful situation she would likely have been impressed at just how fast she was going right now, as this was no doubt the fastest she had ever travelled. Running up another mountain her speed started to decrease the moment she started climbing, and yet she kept pushing on. Digging deeper than she ever had, lives depended on her going as fast as possible. As she hit the tip of the mountain she shot herself into the air. She wasn't entirely sure what she would do when she reached the plane, but Iris was sure she'd figure it out once she got there. Maybe she could phase out with other people and then rinse repeat with as many as possible or somehow cushion the fall of the plane. Truthfully as she was passing through the air, again, she wasn't entirely sure what she was going to do. She wasn't Superman, she wasn't Wonder-Woman. Hell she wasn't even Spider-Woman. She was [i]The Flash[/i], key was in the name it was all about speed. Speaking off, she was loosing speed too fast. Far too fast, she had stopped ascending and started to descent too soon she was never going to reach the plane. "Damn it, no! NO!" Spinning her arms she tried to give herself a boost in the air, but it was futile. It was all she could do to steer herself in a way that would give her a reasonably painless landing. Looking at the plane as it continued to fall all she could feel was a pit in her stomach. She had failed. They were all going to die, because of her.
