panting Boom! Pow! That's the situation out there. Gotta... Gotta reign it in, y'know?
Wally West, Kid Flash, can vouch for me—Barry Allen, The Flash.
I am Grant Gustin, aka Barry Allen, but that’s not important right now. I am more concerned about the current situation than my identity.
And I'm Kendra Sutherland from Metropolis, former major television news anchor, now deputized by the Federal Bureau of Investigation as an officer. My name is Lola.
Lola, I have seen so many things in my life and in my career as the Fastest Man Alive, but nothing prepared me for what has just happened. You know, this whole multiverse thing has turned my world upside down. But you - I don't even know how to begin to thank you for all that you've done. Your skills, your expertise, your knowledge - they're invaluable to us. Now, what can I do to repay you? Lola: Well, Mr. Allen, if you want to repay me, then let me do something for you. Let me be there for you as you navigate through this new world. I know it's overwhelming, and you might feel lost or alone sometimes, but I'll make sure that you never have to face anything by yourself. And you can call me by my nickname - Lulu.
Guys.. This villain seems really powerful.. I'm impressed. He's fast enough to reach mach 10 easily. When he's done charging up, he should be able to break the sound barrier with that slingshot he has.
Wait a minute, hold on! That guy is Quirking? He's not even a quirked individual, he's a speedster! Those two things are completely different! How is he moving so fast? Is he on some kind of drugs? Does he have some sort of technology that gives him powers? This doesn't make any sense!
Guys, chill out. It's just excitement that's making you act weird. He's definitely a speedster. But that's still pretty abnormal even for a metahuman, who should have reached maximum Quirked levels 2-3 years ago.
Lola, you make a good point. It does seem unusual for someone to become a speedster so late in life, especially without having any previous exposure to radiation or other substances that could cause these kinds of changes. Unless... unless there's something else at play here. Something we haven't considered yet. We need to dig deeper into this mystery and find out exactly what is causing these "quirks". Lola: That sounds like a plan, Mr. Allen. But we need to be careful. Whoever or whatever is causing these changes could be dangerous. We don't want to end up attracting more attention than necessary. And if we do find out who or what is responsible, we need to handle them carefully. Maybe we can use their abilities to our advantage. Or maybe we can stop them before they can cause any further harm.
Yeah, look, Barry... You're not alone in this. Not anymore. We're all in this together, alright? And I think whoever or whatever is behind this, they deserve a chance to tell their side of the story too.
Absolutely, Lola. That's why I believe in the power of communication. It's important to listen to everyone and try to understand their perspective.
Sure thing, Mr. Allen. But we should also try to keep a level head about this, okay? None of us want to see innocent lives lost because of someone's quirk or whatever.
That is correct, Lola. Communication and understanding are key in situations like this. However, we also have to keep in mind that safety is a top priority. If this person or entity is truly dangerous, we may have no choice but to use force if they pose a threat to innocent lives. It's a difficult line to walk, but I believe we can strike a balance between understanding and keeping our citizens safe.
Alright, let's stay cool. Let's take this step by step. Question is, where did this slingshot dude come from anyway?
Lola, do you remember seeing anything unusual around Central City before he appeared? Any strange lights or sounds?
Let me check... Yes, there was something unusual earlier today...A glowing green light followed by a massive crack in the sky above City Hall...Does that sound familiar to you, Iris?
nods It does. There was a strange green light and a crack in the sky earlier today when I was out investigating reports of a Meta-human sighting. It was just a small crack at first, but it quickly grew into a huge gap in the sky before disappearing. I had no idea what caused it, but now I wonder if it could be connected to this slingshot guy. Do you remember seeing anything else unusual around the time of the sighting, Lola?
Other than the strange wind blowing everything around and making everything shake...Not really, Barry. I wish I could say I saw something more helpful. Unfortunately, I was too focused on holding onto my position. And I must admit, I'm still very much concerned about the stability of the Multiverse after all this happened.
All of us should be concerned about the state of the Multiverse. I mean, we have just witnessed firsthand what happens when our reality is threatened. It could happen again, at any moment, without warning. But I don't want us to let fear consume us. Instead, I want us to embrace our newfound responsibility.
Yes, I agree. But, there's also something else that I noticed. All of us, even Slurpee, we're all in the same general area right now. So, we should start asking ourselves if there is a pattern to what has been happening. If we look closely enough, there might be a larger secret behind it all.
leans forward, deep in thought What you said, Lola, really got me thinking. If we take a closer look at the patterns and connections between all of the recent events and anomalies, maybe we can uncover a bigger scheme at play.
If I were a betting man, I'd say the answer to this mystery has to do with that Niki chick that showed up earlier in town with her three little friends. Something isn't right about her. I have a feeling she might be connected to this in more ways than we think.
Lola, you might be onto something here. That Niki character did seem strange when she first appeared. And those three little creatures she brought with her were absolutely bizarre. Could they possibly be connected to whatever is causing these "quirks"?
gets thoughtful expression Right...I think we should look into Niki and her three pals further. See if we can find any other similar cases or...or anything that ties them to these 'quirks'. I bet there's a lot more to this than meets the eye.
Lola, let's gather all the information we have about Niki and her three little friends. I'll access the city database, while you research any folklore or mythology surrounding such creatures. If there's a pattern or connection to these "quirks," I'm confident we'll find it.
I’ll search as well. Of course…Niki herself will need to be interviewed too. Although, be careful with her. She can teleport…
pauses, deep in thought All right, let's divide and conquer. Lola, you focus on researching the creatures, and I'll start digging into Niki's background. But remember, we need to be cautious. As you mentioned, she does have the ability to teleport, so we don't want to alert her too early. We need to be stealthy in our investigation.
