To understand what I am about to tell you, you need to do something first. You need to believe in the impossible. Can you do that? Good. Because all of us have forgotten what miracles look like. Maybe because they haven't made much of an appearance lately. Our lives have become ordinary. But there is someone out there who is truly extraordinary. I don't know where you came from. I don't know your name. But I have seen you do the impossible to protect the city I love. So for those of us who believe in you and what you're doing, I just wanna say:
"Thank you." Iris breathed out as she hit send, publishing her latest post on "The Streak."
A blur of red suddenly appeared past her as she was whisked away. As she opened her eyes, she was suddenly looking at the view from the roof of CC Jitters.
"Your welcome."
Iris turned around as she breathed out.
"How did you--? I literally just hit send."
"Speed reading."
"It's crazy what you can do to your voice."
The Flash ran and appeared behind her immediately trying to protect her, "You need to stop writing your blog."
"People need to know that you exist."
Iris' phone rang as she pulled it out, noticing it was Eddie, she hit decline.
"What else can you do?"
He ran around her several times before appearing behind her again, except opposite from her.
"This is not an interview."
"Come on, you gotta give me something. Hobbies, pet peeves, favorite color."
She paused and continued.
"Wait, scratch that last one. Red. Obviously."
"You're not hearing me."
"My hearing is fine. It's just selective. What should I call you?"
He ran again, making Iris turn around and listen attentively.
"Anything but The Streak."
"Fine. Suggestions?"
"You said you were writing about me to bring hope to someone you care about. How would he feel if doing that put you in harm's way?"
Iris sighed as she shook her head, recalling her past few conversations with Barry.
"He and I aren't exactly on the same page these days. Besides, you're giving hope to a lot of people. So I'm doing this for them."
Iris turned around as she heard police sirens in the distance and looked over at the masked superhero.
"To be continued. Gotta run."
He left as Iris gasped, talking to no one.
"Wait. You can't just leave me up--"
