The Flash: The Fastest Man Alive (Male Reader Insert)

6.10 Central City Under Siege

(A/N: I will go back and forth between calling him Zoom and Hunter. Zoom will be used to tell when he is using the voice and has his mask on. Hunter will be used to indicate that the mask is off and he's speaking in his normal voice) 

At Iron Heights Penitentiary, the guards kept constant watch over their metahuman ward. Tens if not hundreds of criminals the Flash, Vibe, and Frost had helped to put away were kept under lock and key. Some had changed their ways while others were just as sick and twisted as the day they'd arrived. 

The night shift guard lazily switched through the camera feed. Everyone was accounted for and in their cells. The halls were as quiet as ever. Even the criminals who normally liked to shout were quiet this evening.

Suddenly, the guard saw a blue blur of lightning rush by one of the cameras. As it did so, a whole six cameras were knocked out followed shortly by others. The guard quickly picked up his radio and called out to his colleagues.

Guard: We have a containment breach. I repeat, a meta is in the facility.

All the guards rushed over to their lockers and armory to grab the weapons supplied by S.T.A.R. Labs. However, just as they were about to reach them, the blue blur whizzed by and took every single weapon and piece of armor away. The guards all looked around in confusion before the blur returned. Some of the guards instantly found themselves tied up. Others were killed where they stood, not even having time to register what happened. 

Zoom made his way into the control center. The guard there heard something approaching and reached for his gun. He turned around and fired at the approaching blur. That was when he felt something pierce his heart. Zoom has caught the bullet and turned it around, redirecting it towards the man. The guard fell dead on his knees and slumped to the floor.

Zoom: Central City's finest. 

Zolomon pressed a set of keys on the keyboard in front of him. Alarms started to ring out throughout the facility. The metahuman criminals looked around in confusion. The bio-dampeners in their cells turned off. The cell doors were unlocked and thrust open. 

Cautious, the criminals all stepped out into the hall of the penitentiary. There were no guards present. Everyone was confused as to what was going on. Their questions were answered by Zoom running into the room. The black racer stood in front of everyone and spoke in a deep, demonic voice.

Zoom: My brothers and sisters, many of you do not know me, but you have me to thank for your extraordinary abilities. Your gifts given to you by me and the course I have directed us on. Now I come to you in the hour of rapture. This city can be ours. All you have to do is follow me. Know this, you are all where you stand because of me. I am not your leader. I am not your king. I am your god. All I ask is for you to be my disciples. Will you join me in setting this city straight and banding against our common enemy: the Flash?

The group was silent for a moment. Realizing what Zoom was getting at, a round of applause slowly started up. It soon exploded into cheering and chanting. Everyone was ready to make Central City pay. 

In one of the other wings of the prison, Leonard Snart looked at his unlocked cell door. However, instead of getting up, he decided to stay put. He would not be joining in on their insanity. Close by was a prisoner in another cell. He had a tangled beard and worried expression on his face. Henry Allen looked between the barred window of his cell and spotted him. Zoom. He was real. Barry was right. The black demon was real. 

At CCPD, the police had just gotten an alert from Iron Heights. Captain Singh was directing everyone, barking orders as all available cops prepared for a breakout.
