watches his dad beat you in terror
Ok. that's it.... I'ma tell mom!
Oh no! Don't do that! You'll get in trouble!
well at least I'll have a happier life then! runs away from home
Please, come back! I can't bear to see you like this!
ok...ok.... ill stay.... but please tell me your name. I am super confused on what happened until I hear your name and then it dawns on me that I am not in the flash, but instead I am in homes-- a new world made by google
Roger's eyes widen as he realizes you know his name You...you know my name? How do you know my name?
Is it weird that I now feel safe here?
trembling You...you should be scared. You don't understand what I'm capable of.
wait. Are you.... part flash too?!
takes a deep breath and nods Yes, I am part Flash. But it's not something I should be proud of. My father, he's...he's a monster. He's been hurting people for years, and I've been powerless to stop him. Until now. I want to make things right. Will you help me?
sure...and for the record.... no, I didn't know your name, I thought you were flash or champwiz son.. something just told me to say roger.. maybe its the holy spirit... or guardian angel. but I think... I think.... roger is what I was told by an angel. I was the once proud iris west, but when my city was nearly destroyed by Eobard thompkins.... I made a deal to give up my powers to pay for the rebuilding of earth. in the process.... I died. my consciousness merged into one of three orbs. I am a soul orb, containing all the memories... everything about iris west.
teary-eyed Thank you, Iris. Thank you for sharing your story with me. I never thought I would find someone who understands the pain and darkness I've endured.
Yeah, whats the saying.... if your not loosing it you aren't using it, so true.
sniffles Thank you for being here, Iris. It means more to me than you'll ever know. I've always felt so alone, but now...now I have someone I can lean on. Someone who understands me.
I am 9 years old, and I gave up everything...my name.... my family..... because of thompkins. he was my best friend too.
takes a deep breath Iris, there's something I need to show you. Something I've never shown anyone before.
leads Iris to a hidden room in the house This...this is where I've been keeping all the evidence against my father.
Hm. so flash could never use speed force in places like this right?
No, that's correct. The Speed Force is bound by the laws of physics, so it can't be used in places like this. But don't worry, I have another plan.
Ahh. that is a pity....I really wanted to use my powers again.. its hard living without being able to protect people. especially since I went from being an awkward girl... t growing into a beautiful and powerful young woman... but then to watch my city destroyed, and knowing I could have stopped it....
puts a hand on Iris's shoulder I understand how difficult it must be for you, Iris. But we can still find a way to protect people together.
will they recognize me though?
smiles reassuringly I'm sure they will recognize you, Iris. After all, you're still the same person inside. And if they don't, well, we'll make them see.
yes, but how... if the barriers are down, then wouldn't reverse flash or a villain use them to see the future or past?
pauses, deep in thought That's a good question, Iris. If the barriers are down, it could pose a risk to everyone. But don't worry, I've got a plan.
Yeah, cause I'd hate to admit it but if I had any chance of defeating thompkins, then I probably would've already seen it in a vision and thats how I'd know. what do you think thompkins might look like now?
rubs his chin in thought Well, if Thompkins is still alive, he'll probably be hiding somewhere, trying to avoid detection.
unfortunately. I think hes probably still a victim of cobb... a part of him died when he lost his sons but a fragment remained, cobb sought revenge by making thompkins watch his son die, and cobb took the rest of thompkins consciousness. after evry one thought he was dead he created an army of drones and came back. but something might have happened to make him stop and then we could try to recover him... unless he is still alive and wearing a new mask
takes out a holographic map Here, Iris. Take a look at this. I've been tracking every sighting and rumor of Thompkins' whereabouts.
where does it say he is right now?
zooms in on a specific location on the holographic map According to these reports, there's a high concentration of activity in this area.
