       SUBURBS OF HUB CITY TEN YEARS AGO
       "Guess I don't have to ask how your studying is going." "All
       these concepts are driving. Darryl What happened?" the bandanged
       Darryl Frye walks over to the table "let's just say I've seen
       better days." "Are you okay?" "Looks worse than it feels. Hey
       sorry I'm not helping with the books but remember what your mom
       used to say?" "Yea... slow down. Take your time. Think it
       through and you'll find your answer." "Good thing books don't
       hit back." "I don't know how you do it Darryl. Going to work
       every day not knoing if you'll make it home in one piece."
       "There are few people that understand. I've lost lots of
       relationships to this job. There are no guarentees. Home extends
       past these four walls. Hub city's is our home. And it's my
       calling to help protect it. We all have our part to play." "Sign
       me up for a desk job! You won't see me knocking heads with
       criminals." "Never say never kid."
       TWO MINUTES AGO DOWNTOWN
       I'm sorry jennifer, I'm sorry I couldint keep Donovin safe.
       Protected him as best as I could but the world's a much diffrent
       place. Something has happened to this city. It's been through so
       much, you wouldint even recognize it. "captain!" "Patty?" "This
       man says he has information on Donovin he's alive!" "How is that
       possible!" "Ive... seen things." "Hell tell us where he is in
       exchange for our help. I know it sounds crazy but he knew who I
       was before I introduced myself to him. And he knew who Donovin
       was." "How do you know him mister?" "Turbine. And I know lots of
       things captain frye. I know who you really are-" "patty, i want
       to belive you but without proof this seems cruel." "The...
       the... the gorillas are here." "Holy shi-"
       NOW
       "You picked a great time to double cross streak. nice job
       lenny." "Yea, i shoulda assumed that a crap load of talking
       monkeys was gonna drop out of the sky!" "Stop bickering, and
       wake him up!" "No worries I got this." A raincloud forms above
       the streak, jessies,  and binshous head.
       "Welcome back speedy, we've got visitors. And there not the good
       kind." "King grodd." "Making friends everywhere huh red?"
       "Unfortunately." "sucks to be you." "I'm starting to hate
       gorillas."
       "streak, submit to grodds will or we will destroy your city!"
       The gorillas rush the group, knifes and hands to the ready.
       And the hits just keep on coming. Admittedly I'm pretty good at
       multitasking, you know being the fastest man alive and all. But
       I'm already up to my neck in supercharged rogues and doctor
       Elias' treachery not the ideal time for a full scale gorilla
       invasion.
       just saying.
       "Yup clearly hear for the streak. " "then this isint our fight."
       "So we're gonna let them tear up the city?" "Why not? Enemy of
       my enemy is my friend right?"
       the first ape has a knife, i hit him in the stomach and throw
       him over to binshou, hit the second in the face "feel free to
       lend a hand guys, this is your home too." "Yea right, we're
       outta here."
       They can keep or scream all they want, but we all have a part to
       play.
       Gorillas fall from the sky and surroned the rogues "where you
       think you going." "Enemy if my enemy huh len?" "Whatever let's
       kick some monkey ass!"
       Hmmm. I don't remember them being this quick, I should be
       running circles around them. But I'm not, almost like there
       predicting my movements." I hop from one to the next and swing
       around a lamps and jump on another one. "Okay. Wheres that
       psychopath you call a leader?!"
       Farenheight forms a fire circle around the rogres "were doing
       the right thing here right?" "Shut up marco."
       "Show some respect to king grodd!" He grabs my back and throws
       me to the ground.
       yep there faster.
       "And you address him as such!" Glider fades through the apes
       "okay this is getting weird, need a hand red?" "Depends, do I
       have to worry about you blinding me when my back is turned?"
       "Not while we have dogs in this hunt." She uses her hair and
       strangely the gorillas "okay, well call this time out. I've got
       to contain this attack before innocent people get hurt." "Agreed
       this is our turf too." "make no mistake glider when this is over
       I've got unfinished business with you guys!" "Wouldint have it
       any other way." "Let's get this nigga!" "Diffrent plan. Binshou
       your going to lead the rogues and take out as many of these apes
       as possible." "Oh I see you think I'm a monkey!  And you don't
       wanna make me fight my brothas! Give me a banana while your at
       it nigga! I'll make sure I don't make you fight an army of
       Crackers!" "...no I just thought you'd want to." "oh ya. I got
       you."
       A FEW BLOCKS AWAY
       The base of the gorrila army. A gorilla walks to Grodd as he
       sits on his throne of random concrete, and street lights. "How
       goes the conquest general?" "Our apes have their hands full with
       the streak and the odd clothed humans. Will you join the fight
       my king?" " Not yet, there is something else in this city.
       Something powerful that requires my attention." "Shall I escort
       you?" "No, kill the streaks allies and bring him to me." A man
       walks through the crowd in his odd clothes "excuse me.. you're
       the head ape in charge right? hi Trickster, I'll cut to the
       chase here. Looks like your setting up in Hub city and you've
       got big plans. Am I right? Well the streak is the head freak
       here and he's not gonna be happy about your little invasion. You
       could use a local liason to show you around and get you in and
       out of wherever you want. Someone who knows this place like the
       back of his hand. What ya say?" "Back of your hand? You know
       nothing!" Grodd rips Tricksters hand off his body " I do not
       need help. I take what I want I am king Grodd. While I'm away
       have the troops round up the humans the elder will need all of
       them."
       "Damn it Selina where are you! It's getting crazy out here and I
       need to know your okay. Fucking Gorillas have overrun the city
       and are rounding people up. I get early parole and step right
       into a Scifi movie. Come on. I just want to make sure you're
       okay before I get the hell out of here. please be out of town.
       Screw it. I'm coming to you."
       This dosent make scence.. a full scale gorilla war and no sign
       of grodd. The question is why? He still belives he is meant to
       have my powers and I'm in his way. It's not like him to pass up
       the chance to do it himslef.
       I zip between all the gorillas as I can see. I see Farenheight
       getting grabbed "get your stinking paws off me!" "Ow! Watch
       where your shooting that!" Cold freezes a gorillas face "you
       monkeys picked the wrong city to invade. This is rogues
       territory!" "Looks like you need to get bailed out again
       streak." "Let's just do this thing."
       grodds up to something. And the longer it takes me to get to
       him. The worse it gets for everyone. I got to end this now. Even
       if it means working along with the rogues that just tried to
       take me out. Like Darryl said I've got to look at the big
       picture. We gotta protect our house before we restore order.
       "Unfortunately this is far from over." "Mind telling us what
       this is Binshou?" "seriously a platoon of talking gorillas?"
       "Long story. All you need to know is there leader is named grodd
       and he's after the streak for his power not to kill him." more
       pods fall from the sky bringing more in.
       As I race towards the greatest threat I've ever faced. I can't
       help but think about Darryls words of wisdom. I run because I
       have to. I run Because time and space needs me to. I work with
       the JIA because sometimes there are dangers to big for one
       person can handle. I protect the gem cities from all who seek to
       do It harm because it is my home. It can be alot to handle but I
       know my part. Grodd has spent all of his life living in a
       Delusion he thought he was the chosen one my existence threatens
       that notion. He needs to come to grips with the truth about the
       speed force. It's not a birthright.
       "Excellent dinner is served." Grodds body has twisted and
       cracked with the speed force energy he has absorbed from the
       batteries.
       Right?

       VIRUNGA MOUNTAINS GENERATIONS AGO
       Evolution. Most rational thinkers have come to terms with this
       concept and accept it as fact. History shows that over time,
       species change on a genetic level. To adapt to the conditions of
       the world they inhabit. It's not a new concept. Darwin called it
       natural selection, Gregor mendel called it principals of
       hereditary. Twenty first century calls it modern evolutionary
       synthesis. The common thread, is that evolution is drawn out.
       It's a gradual process. Except when it isint, i know sometimes
       it happens in a flash. I am grodd, this is my destiny.
       Okay... Not only is the talking gorilla with advanced technology
       and super strength now has the abilities of the speed force,
       he's really fast.
       "Run all you want little mouse! You can not stop me from
       claiming my birthright!"
       Kinda overkill if you ask me.And since he's not gonna stop
       chasing me until he sinks his teeth into my brain. Time to open
       up a Lead on him. Let's see if he can keep up.
       a car lands infront of me and explodes.
       I'll take that as a yes.
       "I am the future, streak. and you are just lunch!" he throws a
       car on me but I phase through it. "Nice try. But I'm not just
       fleet on my feet I've got a few tricks-" My wrist breaks from
       the force of the punch
       "Up my sleeve?"
       HUB CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
       "Get down!" Turbine launches the pod back through the hole in
       the wall. "Turbine, what was that?" "King grodds invasion of the
       city has begun. And he's got his eyes set on the speed force and
       the streak." "Did you say gorilla invasion?" "patty I can help
       you find jim, but I need to find someone who can help me."
       The machine is working elder one! Hub city is a radioactive
       waste land! The humans would be fools to approach it." "Of
       course, king grodd never doubted my talents but with all the
       other elder ones dead. I cannot maintain this effort alone. I
       need additional minds to siphon from. I need more humans." "Yes
       elder you will have them. you will have an entire coliseum
       full."
       "This is getting stupid! How many monkeys are there?" "Does it
       matter? As long as they keep coming were going to keep
       fighting!" "Way to state the obvious sis!" "Uh glider, cold. No
       disrespect but this sibling rivalry is getting old as shit!"
       "Yeah. How about someone comes up with a plan that makes sence."
       "Heatwave is right. Time to formulate an exit strategy,  reach
       mirror master I got an idea."
       more apes run towards the group but some March for the civilans
       "uh guys! They're taking civilans! They're not getting me on
       that bus no way!" "Nobody messes with my city."
       "You still think you can win. Worse you think you should win!"
       "You're in denial streak. Even as your facade fades and as my
       troops tear your city apart." "just because you're hopped up on
       speed force dosent mean you have the moral high ground." "You
       doubt it?! The fact that your home has fallen to me? Despite my
       obvious dominace?!" "The only thing your dominating is this
       conversation."
       I'll never admit to Grodd but ever since a gorilla attacked me
       on a safari when I was a kid I've never been a fan. But like mom
       said:  there is no courage without fear. I guess that makes me
       pretty courageous right now. Still, I'm going to stay away from
       him see if the speed force wears off."
       Before I finish my thought grodd grabs me and slams me down to
       the concrete head first.
       "Your powers, your city all belong to King Grodd!!"
       HUB CITY ZOO
       When I was stuck, i saw the past. And I saw a course for the
       future... a c ouse that would lead darkness to all. So I decided
       to act. With a heavy heart I abandoned my burgeoning gorilla
       civilization.
       "You sure this is the place?" "It is."
       using my mind and my gifts, i trance trancended time and space.
       My mission... jump ahead along the continuum and deliver a
       message that will save out future.
       "Thanks again for taking the time to accommodate our stage
       request mister white." "considering the current state of of
       affairs it isint that strange, epecially considering how he got
       here.
       but I arrived to soon.
       "He appeared out of nowhere fifteen years ago. Dropped right out
       of the sky." "You belive that?" "Who can say where he came from?
       I know he wasint from that wildlife preserve. And when he shows
       up he was a crazed animal. Killed and devoured an antelope and
       attacked a safari jeep. Luckily no one got hurt... here he is.
       sitting in the cage alone is an old gorilla with white further
       around his face "I've been waiting a long time for both of you..
       my name is solovar.
       Sure there's no fear without courage. But mom, sometimes courage
       isint enough.
       Grodd hits me shattering my helmet and sends me flying down the
       street.
       Turbine and the others arrive on the scene as grodd grabs a stop
       sign. "This is how it was always going to end Streak. Time to
       die."

       My name is Patty Spivot. I'm a police scientist for Hub city,
       the town that's endured a total blackout, an attack by the
       rogues, and now a gorilla invasion. It's been one hell of a
       year. Then a few moments ago I came to realize the man I've been
       missing for Months is not only alive but is the streak. Now a
       time traveling gorilla tells me I have to be there in his
       darkest hour. But I may be to late.
       "Get away from him!" "Patty, we've already lost." "You run if
       you want turbine! But I'm not leaving here without him!" "You'd
       rather die with him then?" She throws rocks at the king of the
       apes. "Who dares! Ugggh. No, no. Not now! Must... be wearing
       Off.. need more.." "what's happening to him?" "He dosent look
       good does he?" "I couldint be happier!" Turbine forms a cyclone
       and throws hundreds of rocks at grodd.
       "What do we got coproal? " "I don't know what caused the gem
       cities to go up in smoke. But this place is hot! Radioactivity
       is off the charts." "Pull back and form a perimeter."
       "What is the plan elder" Even with these humans how long can you
       keep up this charade? " "as long as our king commands." "And
       what if the humans see through your telepathic mirage? What if
       we face the full might of the human civilization then what?"
       "enough! We stay because it is our duty! We have our part to
       play. I made the mistske of defying our king once. It will not
       happen a second time. We will help our king take back the power
       of the light.
       The rogues move towards the stadium ad the fight continues
       "they're snatching up civilans left and right. We gotta do
       something now!" "Ready len? " "always am!" Captain cold forms an
       ice ball around the rogues. As mirror master appears in the
       reflection "bring them my way the mirror world is open for
       buisness.
       DOCTOR ELIASES LAB
       "N-N-needed morrrre. Speed force un-unstable. Must have streak.
       He grabs the last speed force battery and opens it.
       "criss cross. Apple sause. Spiders crawling up your back.
       Spiders here. Spiders there. Spiders even in your hair. Cool
       breeze. Tight squeeze, now you got the shierees."
       BROOME HILL, HOME OF CAPTAIN DARYLL FRYE
       "Patty." "Captian, Donovin, he won't wake up." "Hey pal, i wish
       I could stay long. But the station is in ruins, we're assembling
       a task force. Rookies, vets, you name it. This is our last
       stand. I can't promise I'll be back. But how about you wake up
       and fight with me. Side by side?" "I will help you the best way
       I can. If this city has no future then no one will help me get
       back to my home to be with my family." "Thank you turbine. It's
       good to have you back."
       So this is what death feels like. Disconnected. Fleeting
       thoughts, swirling around. Trying to grab on to something.
       Memories, feelings, an anchor to life. Colors fade, am I really
       dyIng? Thoughts. like memories of things I haven't seen yet,
       things I haven't done. this car be death. This is something
       else.
       speed mind. My body is paralyzed but my thoughts race. Revealing
       possible scenarios. A multitude of actions. Roads that could
       have been taken. Either to victory. Or defeat.
       unacceptable.  So we fight, patty. I feel her beside me.
       Unwilling to leave. Survival,  loyalty. Repeatedly I fail. We
       fail. As we defy grodd at every turn. There are no winners, only
       death. No. It can't end like this! I have to, i must.
       no slow down.think it through. I've found my answer. My name is
       Donovin Craig. And I have to turn myself over to grodd.

       HUB CITY PARK FIVE YEARS AGO
       "I gotta admit. I didn't see this coming, kind of surprising
       honestly." "Why Donovin? Cant a viable single lady ask an
       attractive young man to lunch?" "So is this just a lunch?"
       "Youre asking if this is a full on date? Does it feel like one?"
       "Well Selena. Kinda." "There you go." "You must want to go out
       with me pretty badly to withstand this weather." "Absolutely.
       Not even these hurricanes can keep us apart." "You think mother
       nature is trying to tell us something?" "Yeah. That we should go
       inside."
       Yhe wind blows the reporters papers off the table. "No worries,
       I got them." "Wow! That was crazy fast, howd you" "Videogames,
       totally helps with hand eye coordination. What is this? You want
       to wheedle me for information about your brothers case." "Its
       not like that. I figured that since we were going out anyway, I
       might as well ask you about." "Be honest, is this the reason you
       asked me out?" "Is that what you think?" "I trust the facts."
       NOW
       "So that's it? Youre just going to give up?" "Theres no other
       way. I have to turn myself over. Believe me, I've run all the
       angles. If I fight grodd. Every outcome ends in tragedy." "How?
       with all of your powers" "Grodd is stronger, and he wants my
       powers. He wants me.. He wants to be the master of the speed
       force. And if he dosent he will wipe out the city." "Do you
       think hell stop when he gets your powers?"
       I wish I could promise her that Ill be back. I will do whatever
       it takes to keep this city safe. I can feel the speed force
       pulling me towards grodd. As a matter of fact I can sence
       everyone who has been touched by the speed force. I can feel the
       pull of them all. Grodd, Turbine, even Solovar. The mind will
       always be faster. Im pinning my hopes to those words. Lets see
       if those words of wisdom are worth a damn.
       DOCTOR ELIAS LABROTORY
       King grodd awaits my arrival by sitting on a makeshift throne in
       front of the batteries. "Grodd! You looking for me?"
       HUB CITY
       "Okay folks, last stop on the monkey train! Humans only. Ready
       to do your thing weather wizard?" "Way ahead of you cold!" He
       zaps the gorillas trying to get in the busses with lightning.
       "Looks like your up Lisa." "Hope this works." Golden Glider
       drags the buses through the makeshift mirror.
       What the hell is going on? Kidnapped by apes and now the Rogues
       are taking us? I diddint get out of prison to get snatched in
       some freaky slave trade. Think Daniel think! Gotta do something.
       "You are a coward and a quitter streak. Proving beyond a doubt
       that you are not worthy of the gift of the light. You wasted
       your potential trying to preserve the status quo, when you had
       the power to change the world. I will not make the same mistake.
       My civilization will not step aside for humankind and all of its
       flaws. Today I show my elders and my apes they were wrong to
       lose faith in me!.............. So that's it? You have nothing
       to say?! In your final moments this is how you go down? Like a
       lamb!...... Good then this story is over!" Grodd throws a spear
       at my head.
       Like cole grodd suffers from one flaw, overconfidence, and
       arrogance. The mind will always be faster.
       The spear disintegrates, and a portal to the speed force is
       opened. What have you done?" "Used my mind to give you what you
       desired." "What are you talking about." "I do more than run
       fast, I use my speed mind, patent pending for quick thinking. To
       calculate outcomes. to see potential paths for the future. Your
       path, my path. Ive seen how it ends, in death. So I brought you
       here, you wanted the power of the speed force. well welcome to
       it." "This is your final miscalculation. I can feel my power
       growing immensely." "You can get as big and strong as you want
       Grodd. But here I am king, and your only way out is through me."
       We run at each other "I wouldn't have it any other way."
       I feel another presence in the speed force. stronger than
       grodds, I see a group of people close to our fight. The people
       from the boat, including "Selena?!"

       The streak stole my birthright and buried me beneath Gorilla
       citys ancient temple. But I never doubted myself. The
       treacherous elders left me for dead until General Silverback
       unearthed me from my rocky tomb. Yet I never wavered in my
       conviction. When I returned to reclaim my throne my
       determination inspired an army. Because I know what I am. I am
       their king. The light bearer. The chosen one. Defy me and I will
       destroy you. I am Grodd destiny is on my side.
       "Tell me streak, should i play with your friends first, or are
       you eager to die? "Ill take c, none of the above. "Even now you
       think you have a chance. Friends first then!" Grodd charges the
       group of people and I step in front of him and take the punch.
       The chest piece explodes but repairs itself immidetly. I hit
       grodd on the chin and he flies "I already told you, in her I am
       king!" "No I am the chosen" I hit his stomach with quick hits
       and then bring my knee to his face. "Enough with that, saying it
       out load over and over again doesn't make it so. Youre
       delusional, this fight is over?" My kick gets caught by Grodd, I
       didn't even see his hand move.
       'The humans have beached the stadium!" "Be careful, the citizens
       are hooked into the machine." All out war brakes between the
       remaining apes and the police.
       IN THE MIRROR WORLD
       "The police cant possibly disconnect them all and keep up the
       fight, gorillas are to powerful." 'Show them how its done Lisa."
       Glider grabs the transmitters but loses her grip "I cant hold
       on!" The transmitters get caught in a tornado "Ive got them, but
       what do I do with them?" "Send them up here twirly guy." "Names
       turbine!!" "Whatever."
       "The connection is free. I am free!"
       "Sir, I don't know how but the is back where its supposed to
       be." "And the radiation?" "Gone." "Perfect all units move in!"
       A tank breaks through the stadium and the fighting stops, a
       gorilla asks "What is that?" "That's the army genius!"
       "Cavalry's here? We've done our part rogues, lets leave the hero
       stuff for the heroes.
       "I love this place! Im defying gravity in here Now I believe its
       time for." A wooly mammoth runs through the battle ground "Grodd
       lets switch dance partners, you take the deues ex wooly cha. and
       ill take the pretty one. How you doing selina?" "Cerainly took
       your time diddint you?" "A good plan takes time. Something Grodd
       will have plenty of  in here." "Does that include a way to get
       us outta here?" "Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
       A portal opens up above the stadium and the streak and the
       civilians fall out of it. "Last stop Hub city."
       Move forward, he always says move forward.
       but its time he learned.
       sometimes
       you gotta go in reverse.

       DIAMOND DISTRICT, COAST CITY
       A jewelry store, covered in darkness guarded by one sleeping
       guard? No problem for a rogue, except that it is. An explosion
       rattles the store and takes half of it with it Including the
       guard, the figure takes the jewelry and runs out.
       There's an assumption that being a superhero is all about
       punching bad guys and stopping runaway trains. That's a big part
       of it, and a fun one. But the rest is helping your city in every
       way you can. Even if that means hammering nails or putting up
       drywall. After grodds invasion nearly brought the gem cities to
       ruin I've been doing a lot of both. And if I'm a little worn
       down since I put on the new red and gold. I don't mind, I'm
       doing what I'm supposed to do, and If it was that or being
       normal I will put up all the drywall in the world.
       Life hasint got back to normal but it's getting better, except
       for the fact I don't have my old job back.
       "You're late donny. " "up yours Tyler."
       Suspended police scientist and super hero by day. Beer slinger
       at the oldest bar in Coast city by night. It's temporary but I
       like it, tyler and Jessie have really cleaned the place up, for
       an extra five dollars you can have a seat that doesn't have
       vomit or a roach on it. But I have to do it until the union
       reinstates me from being declared officialy dead.
       "Another one over here Ty. And can you put it on my tab? Works
       been slow since the ape-ocapalypse."
       Besides working here does have its benefits. (Flash fact:For
       almost 20 years this bar has catered to outlaws. So it's a good
       way to keep up with the gem cities resident bad guys, like the
       trickster.)
       "So what kinda work do you do?" "Why? You Looking to put a crew
       together? I'm not one to brag but there ain't a safe I can't
       brake into."
       surprising how quickly these people will willingly incriminate
       themselves.
       "Hey man I can trust you right?" "absolutley." "I used to run
       with the rogues. And those jerks gave me the boot for no reason.
       But I'm not one to complain cause now I get in touch with my
       roots. And check this out!" Trickster shows off his new robotic
       arm, complete with gadgets and doodads complete with a chrome
       finish.
       "During the invasion some stupid ape ripped my arm off so me and
       my real family got together and made me this! Only took her out
       for a test drive once." "how that work out for you?" Suddenly
       cops burst through the door "oh shit ! Jessie get the hookers
       outta here and burn the trap house!" "Axel walker! You are under
       arrest." "Oh! Naw jessie we good. Get them back down there."
       "You are under arrest for robbery and murder!" "Theres gotta be
       a mistake I diddint murder anybody!" The cops take him out "wow,
       do you think trickster did it?" "We bout to find out homie."
       "Can I come?" "Sure after you deliver drinks to table 12" "but
       someone could-" "could die of a lack of drinks now get to work!"
       Outside the trickster activates rocket boots and flys away
       "catch ya later suckers!" Trickster flies but a flying bike
       turns a corner and a dark skinned man in a red and black spandex
       suit jumps out and tackles him into a building "gotcha!" "yeah!
       That's what you get for messing with the speed force! Nice job
       Gomez!" "Don't use my real name dude!" "Sorry sprint!" "No
       problem turbo charger." Sprint falls off trickster and lands in
       traffic "this is gonna hurt!"
       A red streak runs in and grabs him
       I recognize these two. Darrick and gomez, two of the innocent
       bystanders who got sucked into the speed force. Who've
       apparently come out with powers. Awesome, more people who want
       to be like me.
       I put him down on a nearby street "stay here!" "Like hell, I'll
       go wherever I want."
       "You're mine trickster!" trickster shoots a net at the kid
       sending me to the street below. A black streak runs in and
       stacks tables on each other "ya that's fine." The kid crashes
       through them "that hurt." "Ya but that shit was funny." sprint
       comes up to him "quit fooling and get up!" "Dude we are helping
       Binshou and the flash catch bad guys! How cool is that!" "Who
       needs em? We got this?" The trickster is knocked out as the
       flash holds him up and Binshou puts the shows in his bag. "What?
       These are droses they fresh as hell!" "We need to talk."
       HUB CITY PARK
       "I know I know. we suck at the hero thing." "it was our first
       time!" "Ya I remember how dissapointing my first time was but
       this isint a game or a hobby, people could have been hurt.
       Having powers dosent make you a hero." "Does help with getting
       chicks though." "We appriciate the talk flash. But we really
       need is for you to lead us, maybe show us the ropes. Wouldint
       you want to be a part of a team? We're the speed force." "That's
       a nice ass name and all but my dad cant lead a home and that is
       genetics I can't lead, or be around people for shit Ask my
       kids." "I should have copyrighted that name thats amazing, you
       have kids?" "Not important dog." "Your 23?" "And I have 25 kids
       why you think I'm always in this costume? Can't get child
       support from a vigilante. Anyways you young niggas need to calm
       down you nowhere near the OGs." "you people are hypocrites! You
       weren't a hero right out of the box!" "Nigga you mad as fuck
       take a chill pill you ain't ready for prime time. Look at your
       hair line it's shrinking frim stress already. that's why I
       called your bottom bitch."
       two women walk towards them and the Hispanic one runs up to him
       "Gomez! I can't belive you!" "Why? I told you we were doing
       this. You even made the costume." "I diddint think you were
       gonna go through with it! You lose a few pounds and all of a
       sudden your a superhero?" "Few pounds I'm built lime superman!"
       "Seriously you called his girlfriend?" "Yep, because I can sence
       you were all touched by the speed force." "Some more than
       others." "You really wanna go there!" "Marissa is just mad that
       while me and darrick got powers all she got was fired from her
       job!" Binshou runs around the park screaming ooooooo Shit! World
       star!!!" "Enough!  Clearly the speed force has endowed Darrick
       and Gomez with powers so I need to know if I'm getting residual
       traces off Marissa and selina." "If your asking if I have powers
       that's a no." "I guess I wasint as lucky as captain touch down
       over there." "It's sprint!" Selina grabs the flash "Um mm you
       might wanna see this."
       In the badlands out side of the gem cities is a group of people
       called the outlanders, a group of criminals but stupid and
       dirty. and a video has got every one scared.
       "Axel walker is not guilty of the crimes accused against him.
       Moreover he is a member of the sovereign outlander nation. Not a
       citizen of your facts government. And is not subject to your
       laws. Your government has no right to detain the trickster and
       you must release him immediately. If you do not we will take him
       by force."
       HUB CITY POLICE DEPARTMENT
       "Well that's going to be a problem." Patty and forrest watch the
       broadcast as Donovin walks in "whether he did it or not. And I
       don't think he did." "Craig! How's it going" "good forrest, I'd
       ask you but I can tell the trickster thing is center stage.
       Thats why I'm here, to see if u can help." "Good, cause any
       minute singhs gonna come in here yelling-" "forrest! Drop
       everything! we've got a situation here and- Donovin you
       shouldint be here." "Sorry david, i brought him." "Yeah well he
       can't stay." "No worries I'll show myself out."
       right after I look at that crime report. Patty being the genius
       she is points as a manilla folder and grab it before anyone
       registers my movement.
       Here's a flash fact for ya. There are no clear pictures of the
       perp. Just blurry pictures at best completely inconclusive. The
       rogues are blue collar criminals and unrefined but killing is
       against there rues. Stranger still the blast left no incindeary
       residue. Also, blasting an entire wall out of a building is not
       tricksters M.O. when it comes to his work he's a surgical theif.
       As someone who has been on the wrong end of his blast they
       aren't full fledged explosives.
       IRON HEIGHTS PRISON
       "Heck no I diddint change the recipe to my bombs." "Then I'm
       going to need to get my hands on couple to test on." "They were
       confiscated when they brought me in here." "I'll grab them from
       the armory. In the meantime. I need you to call off the
       outlanders ultimatum. their deadline is up in twenty minutes and
       you aren't being released until your exonerated." "what's the
       matter? You're afraid of the outlanders?" "I'm only afraid of an
       escalating political firestorm after I unceremoniously put down
       there prison break." "I'm not calling anything off. I finally
       got back a family, and they wanna spring me from this hole. No
       way I'm stopping them."
       I run down to the armory guns, RPGS, and  Trick grenades. I hear
       a ringing, great there early.
       Outside of the prison the outlander army stands ready, tanks and
       helicopters and hundreds of men ready to fire "this is your last
       chance!"
       Some folks learn the hard way.
       I run outside but, I hit a blur wall and my costume breaks into
       little metal pieces.
       Uhh where the hell did my powers just go?

       COAST CITY HOME OF MARISSA RONNIE AND FLOYD GOMEZ
       "Gomez! Turn on the news it's going down!" "The outlanders are
       attacking Iron heights! Your not gomez." "Thank you for
       noticing."
       "We don't have any specifics at this time but we do no that a
       Fire fight has broken out for nearly twenty minutes."
       "Marisa, where's gomez we gotta put a stop to them or there
       gonna break trickster out of jail! And is that a new 60- inch
       tv?" "Yes, and gomez hasint come home yet. You don't think he
       went to iron heights do you?" "Without me?" "Gomez better not
       have. We've got to get there before he does something stupid."
       "We? But you don't have any speed force powers?" "you gonna stop
       me?" "No mam. I really hope the flash is there."
       My name is Donovin craig, and I am not the fastest man alive.
       Twenty minutes ago I was the flash. But now Imust just a man, I
       don't even feel any connections to the speed force. And now I'm
       hiding two bags of super villan weapons that cannot fall into
       the hands of the guys currently taking over iron heights right
       now. These guys have no problem using deadly force so I have to
       stop them before anyone gets hurt.
       Basically I'm a guy who's way over his head. There are
       outlanders swarming all over the prison, and I have no idea how
       I'm gonna stop them from breaking the trickster out. When they
       find the armory empty they're gonna be pissed. And... they'll
       take it out on the officer I see walking them to the armory.
       Damnit, I'm allergic to bullets.
       "Where is the tricksters stuff?!" Weather wizards old wand.
       Flash fact: rogue weapons are genetically coded to the user of
       it. But let's see if I can get it to do....a thing.
       the wand shoots out a terrifying slightly annoying puff of fog.
       Fog?! Seriously!
       "Umm what the hell is this?" His radio goes off. "Vasquez have
       you secured the tricksters equipment yet?" "We have a problem.
       The armory been cleared out."
       a cloud forms above my head and rain pours on top of me.
       Seriously! Come onnnnn!"
       Suddenly a gust of wind shoots out knocking all the thugs into
       the wall unconcious.
       Aside from knocking out the guard that went well.
       "Vasquez?  Vasquez?  We're sending another squad to you."
       Oh-
       "My! God!" Screams college dropout Darrick Albert as the
       turbocharged boat crashes onto the beach. "Are we dead?" "No,
       and your gonna be able to put my father's boat back to the way
       it was right?" "Maybe?" They overlook the carnage. "Wow this is
       brutal the new call of duty graphics look amazing." "What?"
       "Nevermind.  You coming?" "Hell no!"
       I hear the familiar chime of the elevator and I know the second
       squad has arrived. They want the tricksters equipment so bad?
       Take the gas grenade then!
       The grenade goes off and all the thugs fall over one another.
       I quickly stuff my gear and myslef into the air vent to not have
       to go through round 3.
       that's donovin 14 outlanders 0 now to figure out my next move.
       The trickster and the outlanders move through the corridors.
       "What's going on!" "I don't know, but we've been here to long
       it's time to go. Our political posturing won't stop theyre
       government from coming after us, we need to get to the desert."
       "not without my arm were not!"
       Darrick sneaks by them and goes to a console. "Okay, okay. Think
       think think. All I gotta do is overload the junction box with my
       new powers, and all th magentic locks will stop anymore people
       from joining this raid. They don't call me turbocharger for
       nothing. And by them I mean-"
       Suddenly all the doors swing open the prisoners come out.
       "Oops."
       all right I've got the element or surprise ad I've hidden the
       weapons they have no idea who I am, where I am, or how many i
       have with me. Things are looking goo-
       "Helllpppl!!!" Darrick runs from the swarm of prisoners as an
       electric boomerang hits the ground knocking them out.
       Darrick? Oh come on! That's the last thing I need! Now I have to
       play hide and seek and-
       I walk in on the trickster and the outlanders surronding Darrick
       "Hey Dont I know you?" "Donovin?!" "Who've you are drop your
       weapons!" "Darrick. . Plea section don't tell me gomez is here
       to." "Ya your that bartender right?" "Did you get powers too?"
       "So you took Axels belongings?" "Yes, no, and no comment." "I'm
       confused why are you here?" Darrick turbocharged the gun pointed
       at me causing it to explode. "what is that?" "It wasint me! And
       it ain't this gun either!"
       that frequeny. .. I know it.
       "Duck!"
       The wall explodes and everyone is rocked by the explosion.
       It's happening again, if I don't do something were all going to
       be blown up. Wait I got this! "Darrick I need you to supercharge
       colds freeze pistols now!" The gums change into freeze cannons
       and the whole room becomes a frozen wall.
       I knew I recognized those vibrations. you lied to me. You did
       get speed force powers.
       I see Marissa frozen in the block of ice.
       suddenly the metal from my ring comes out and reattaches itslef
       to me.
       now you come back huh?
       "So Marissa stile the diamonds? How?" "Using a power set akin to
       what I do when u vibrate through objects.  If done at the wrong
       frequency it causes the molecules to explode. Because of that,
       when she robbed the store it got the guard killed." "So your
       saying that she tried to collapse the prison on top of the
       trickster to kill him before anyone could prove anything?" "Yes,
       guess she tried to bury the truth." "Flash. I don't think I
       wanna be a hero anymore." "alright darrick, it's not for
       everyone." "Ya, guess it's not for gomez either. I realy thought
       he would have been here." Darrick walks away sad.
       I should have know about marrisa. I thought it was residual
       energy but everyone who's been in the speed force has manifested
       powers. Everyone except selina.
       it seems like the more I learn about the speed force the less I
       understand.
       WATCHTOWER
       among the perks of being in the justice league I also get access
       to all the cutting edge equipment.
       I use the watchtower central computer. There's access to alot of
       covert intelligence alot alot.
       "Streak! As I live and breathe,  i haven't seen you sick you
       left the titans!" "Hey vic. And it's the flash now. " "and thank
       god for that. I diddint t want to tell you but that name and
       costume were horrible! " "i.. liked it. Hey is this computer
       running slow?" "It's you. Watchtower computers have a
       preformance of around one hundred terraflops. Which means it
       does more work in a second then a home computer could do in a
       decade. and you might wanna close some windows. Oh, and I
       destroyed those villan weapons. Talk about old tech. " "wait! I
       think i found something that could explicit my power loss. It
       looks like batman has been tracking an ongoing covert  Canadian
       meta project involving a dial shaped siphon thattemporarily
       siphon super heroes powers. A Power set matching mine appeared
       in Toronto the second I lost mine and when it dissappeared I got
       mine back." "Will it happen again?" "Doubtful I'll monitor it."
       "What's up?" "You know.. I lost my powers at the worst time
       possible to be honest I'm surprised I made a diffrence." "But
       you did make one." "Yeah, but I cant help fell it was luck.
       Every time I step out there as the flash I do so with all these
       powers at my disposal. But when batman or green arrow go out
       there. I don't know how they do it." "So your saying theres an
       upside to being a bullet proof robot 24/7?" "Did you make a joke
       vic?" "Booya."

       Much has been said about your first kill. How you react, how you
       feel after. What the effects are. I diddint cry, I diddint throw
       up. Because belive it or not I'm the good guy. This isint easy
