Allison wants to reconnect with her cousin, Barry Allen, since he's pretty much her only family other than the Queen family. When she returns to Central City, she becomes a vigilante to cross the names off a list her mother gave her to 'right her wrongs'. Then in the night that the Particle Accelerator exploded, lightning struck her and Barry, putting them both in comas. But while Barry only has super speed, she has five more abilities. That night, the Blue Streak aka the Blue Flash aka the Spark was born. All rights belong to CW's Flash & Arrow's creators. Characters of the two shows belongs to CW.

Labs and get to know their founder, Harrison Wells. Little do you know that this man is about to change your entire life... This is a fanfiction to the DC series "The Flash", season one. Since the intention of this story is to point out the relationship between the reader and the other characters, I took the liberty to just pick out relevant scenes and conversations and leave away the rest.

Lightspeed | A Flash and Blitz Story
Barry Allen was never meant to be alone. The night the particle accelerator exploded, lightning didn't just strike once-it struck twice. Barry Allen, destined to become the Flash, was chosen by the Speed Force to be the legend. But Rachel Lucas, a girl who by all accounts should have been hundreds of miles away, was chosen to be something else. A guardian. Brilliant, stubborn, and funny to a fault, Rachel never asked for powers. History should have remembered her as the world's finest private investigator, nothing more. But now she runs beside Barry-faster than him, faster than anyone expected-and every step threatens to unravel the future Eobard Thawne has spent centuries constructing. The Speed Force calls her its angel. Thawne calls her an anomaly. And Rachel herself? She just wants to use her gift to help people, even if it means breaking bones-or physics. But destiny has made her the one thing Thawne fears most: the girl who can outrun him.

Yes, sounds awesome right? Well, it can be, but it also can't be. She's a metahuman. Yep, you heard right. She was struck with that lighting in the same night Barry Allen was. Then, after the nine months of being in the hospital, she woke up. Then she ran. Her emotions hit, and she temporarily slowed down time in order for her to make a five mile walk in under three minutes. Call it, un-super speed if you'd like. She was confused. She had no clue how that happened, but she had to find how. Now, she was extremely smart. She did research. Then she saw many reports on the news about this man called "The Streak". She thought it was... Odd. The whole concept of superheroes and super humans. It was to unreal and childish for her. She didn't like the title 'superhero'. Until one night, the masked man, whose name has been recently changed to "The Flash", showed up on one of her missions. But ever since then her life hasn't been close to the same.
