Ch: 104 [Barry Allen pt1]

"Go frame by frame, Jarvis," Bruce ordered the AI as she kept on playing the recorded footage of that night. He has this weird feeling that something isn't right. Lex died that easily, that fast? That man was stubborn and survived the time he got cancer, Amazo virus, a version fought Ultraman, and yet, this one died just like that? Yeah, the unstable explosion of the arc reactor was overpowered, but still, Bruce has this feeling of uneasiness.

So he wants to review the video that his suit took during their encounter. It's been already the third day he kept watching and reviewing and, in fact, found nothing. The footage is normal and same as what happened that night.

"Pause!" Bruce smirked as he almost jumped when he saw a glimmer. It's just at the corner of the screen but there's definitely something there at the corner. A red and yellow haze or something. He frowned but asked Jarvis to clean up the footage and zoom in as much as he could. And, once again, Bruce raised his eyebrows in surprise. "What is this?"

[Scanning...]

The AI spoke and made Bruce as impatient as ever. Even with all his patience, Bruce couldn't help himself from getting more anxious. Then, finally, it spoke after two full minutes.

[Analysis confirmed...]

[Putting the enhanced image on the screen...]

"Hahahaha!" Bruce laughed in delight and stood up as his lips made an amused smirk. "Yes. This is how it should be, or else it won't be much fun, now, would it? Thawne..." On the screen is the enhanced image of a speedster in a yellow suit and red lightning sparking around him. It was hazy, but Jarvis did its best to enhance it and they clearly could see the yellow and red lightning of a speedster. "You never make things easy. If I were to guess, you saved Luthor only because he has something you want..."

He began to spin on the chair. His legs crossed together, his hands holding each other at the back of his neck, his eyes and face were serious. He sat like this for the longest time and finally stopped.

"Kryptonite! He wants Kryptonite. He want to kill this version of Superman or the future version? But why come all the way from the future for Kryptonite? One reason could be that it's under my control and I kicked his ass, so..." Bruce mumbled to himself as he stood up, "...So, he came to the past to kill two birds with one stone. Get the Kryptonite and get rid of me at the same time. Oh, not to forget those two Kryptonite ships. He could be after them too... And he might know my real identity."

He walked around the room for a few minutes...

"Well, nanites in my body can stop him from touching me, but if he's from the future, who knows what information he has obtained about my nanites? Might as well create something new for everyone and me. It would be fun to see his face when he realizes how badly he fucked up trying to get in my way. Negative Speed Force, huh?" Bruce clenched his fist, summoning a bit of lightning around his body, "I guess, time to recruit Barry."

[Location: Central City]

Barry has finally decided to start his new life here in Central City and start working with the forensics lab here. Because they are not like S.T.A.R. Labs, his work isn't much, and only once in a blue moon that they'll have a difficult case for Barry to investigate. Although, due to that, his salary won't be great, it would at the very least cover for himself for now.

[Barry's secret lab]

Finally, after weeks of working and gathering materials, he has managed to build his very first suit. Now, he won't have to worry about burning his clothes every time he uses his power. To him, this was not something special and something for him to be proud of, it was a mere necessity as it would waste a lot of his money replacing the same pair of clothes, again and again, and he didn't have that luxury as a Forensic scientist.

"Time to put it to the test," With a large and satisfied grin, he quickly wore it and took a run of the entire city before coming back to his lab, "Wowhooooooo! This thing is amazing and cool!" He got his mirror, "Lookin' cool, Barry, lookin' real cool," He mumbled as he took selfies in his suit and was now super confident.
