Y/N L/N was always a believer in the impossible, but he never suspected he would become the impossible. When a fateful lightning strike gives Y/N the power to move at super fast speeds, he must learn to step up as a hero against similarly affected p...
Y/N: (narrating) People are always in a rush. Whether it's for a late appointment or we're trying to meet up at our cousin's birthday party. Regardless, we are always moving. For me, that's more so than usual. But sometimes, we can be in such a rush that we forget to stop and smell the roses.
Police sirens wailed down the street. The police were in hot pursuit of a getaway driver. In front of the speeding cop cars, a white van careened through the streets. It smashed into other cars, trying to make room for itself. The driver up front was loading his gun while his partner in the back counted the money.
The white car took a hard left, blowing through a red light on its quest to evade the police. It nearly collided with a taxi cab before swerving into the right lane. The cab itself swerved to avoid the speeding vehicle. The driver hit the breaks, but wasn't able to stop in time. In front of the cab, a pedestrian was riding his bike on the sidewalk. The poor man suddenly found himself flung through the air as the the bike below him collided with the breaking taxi cab.
Suddenly, things seemed to slow down. While the pedestrian was in the air, a streak of red and orange light blew down the street. It leaped on top of the taxi cab and grabbed the man. The biker suddenly found himself being carried over to the side of the road. He was placed down gently, in shock at what just transpired. He found himself staring open jawed in front of a man with tinted goggles and a metal hat. He wore a red vest with a lightning bolt emblem streaking across the chest.

Y/N: Are you okay, sir?
The pedestrian was frozen for a moment, recognizing the man in red as the city's fast vigilante. He stuttered while giving his reply.
Pedestrian: Uh... Y... Yeah. Thanks, Flash.
Y/N nodded to him. He then turned to see if the driver of the taxi cab was safe.
Y/N: Are you good, sir?
The old man in the front seat stuck his head out the window, giving the local hero a wave from his smoking car. Y/N nodded to him as well before turning around and speeding back off after getaway car.
The white car continued on its destructive path. The driver suddenly saw several barricades pop up out of nowhere right in front of him. He was forced to turn the vehicle down onto a less busy street. The cops continued to catch up to him, forcing the driver to drive faster.
Just then, the men inside saw a streak of orange light pass by them. Looking to the side, the driver peered through the passenger-side window and was stunned. There, keeping up with the vehicle, was a man in red running at incredible speeds.
