Edward Clariss
Whitney had rewatched the video of Joe 4 times after Naruto had left, she wanted to live up to her full potential and help people like everyone around her did, and she could do that now, all she had to do was show everyone, so here she was in the cortex watching them
"Everything okay Whitney?" Naruto asked
"Yeah, um so after dad's funeral I found a tube with orange lightning in it, and," Whitney raised a hand and vibrated her hand
"Your a speedster." Naruto said getting a smiling shrug from Whitney as everyone looked at her in surprise
"I want to help you and Linda save the city." Whitney nodded
"Your a grown woman, and I can't really tell you to not try and help, but Caitlin is going to run every test she could think of, before we are actually comfortable with you putting your life at risk." Naruto said
Whitney looked around and focused on Iris who nodded, "Once the tests are done and you pass with flying colors. Nate can teach you everything he knows."
"Yes." Whitney smiled as Caitlin was helped up by Naruto
"Lets go." Caitlin said but before the two could walk to the med bay an alert sounded off
"Meta-human app." Cisco said as Naruto nodded and upon seeing the location he sped off
Downtown
The man who met with Alchemy was standing in an intersection when Naruto sped in and he smirked taking off his mask, "Remember me, Flash?" the man asked
"Clariss?" Naruto asked as this was a villain of Barry's and Wally's in Flashpoint,
"Oh, you do remember, Flash? Good, yeah." Edward said taking his mask off and immediately pictures were snapped of the amateur boxer, "Because I remember everything, too."
"How?" Naruto asked
"It doesn't matter."
"Then why would you bring it up?" Naruto asked
"What does matter is that I know your little secret. You changed the timeline. Because if I recall correctly, the only Speedsters in my other life were me another Flash and that smartass Kid Flash, until you showed up and stole everything from me!" Edward said
"I didn't steal anything from you, Clariss. I just put things back to the way they're supposed to be." Naruto shrugged
"This is how my life is supposed to be!" Edward yelled causing the people watching to blink in confusion, "For years, I felt like something was missing. And now I know why. And here I am. Your Rival, back again. Believe me, Flash, this time, you're not gonna steal my life so easily."
Edward suddenly rushed for Naruto who tapped his thigh as he shifted into a boxing stance and the two landed a blow to each others face
Edward was stunned whIle Naruto easily rebounded and bobbed and weaved 2 jabs and an uppercut from Edward, before he began to throw his own jabs that connected before Edward tried a right hook, that Naruto stepped back from before he sent a uppercut that sent Edward into the air
Naruto jumped after the airborn Clariss and punched him in the chin sending him into the street as the civilians cheered for him
Edward sped up and sent a left and a right jab before sending another right that got through Naruto's guard and hit him in the face, before he punched Naruto with 2 electrified uppercuts, and a hook to send Naruto stumbling back
Edward sped in and punched the disoriented hero in the face with a jab sending Naruto into a car, with Edward in pursuit landed 17 heavy super speed hooks before a heavy right sent Nsruto stumbling to the side but Naruto shook his head and stood up straight looking at Edward who sped for him
Dragging his left foot back, Naruto dodged Edward's overhand right, before he leaned forward to dodge the left jab and a super speed back step allowed home to dodge the second left hand jab, before Naruto sped forward and landed a left uppercut, before he sent a right jab to Clariss' jaw, followed by a left blow to Clariss body, and a right uppercut to the body, sending Clariss stumbling back before Naruto sped forward and punched Clariss in the jaw sending him stumbling around into a right cross to the ribs from Naruto sent Clariss flying into a light pole
Clariss growled punching the ground as he looked at Naruto who was lightly jumping, and quickly he sped forward in a zigzag pattern and scored an uppercut and as Naruto was stumbling back, he began to launch left and right jabs mixing in hooks and a few body blows before he tried to send Naruto to the ground with a blow to his nose
Naruto ducked the blow and scored an hook of his own, and before Clariss' feet could leave the ground Naruto stomped on one, and began to launch speed punches to Clariss face, and body before an uppercut sent Clariss rolling away
Clariss climbed to his feet to see Naruto speeding at him and quickly dodged causing Naruto to speed right by him but Naruto landed on a building and kicked off hurtling right back at Clariss who turned into a punch to the jaw
Clariss flew back before Naruto grabbed his leg and pulled him back to deliver an axe handle to his gut sending Clariss into the street unconscious causing everyone to cheer
"Good job Flash."
Naruto blinked before he turned to see Linda...dressed as a cop...before he grunted as his memories began to shift to where Linda never worked at Picture News but CCPD as Joe's partner
"Linda, what the hell is going on?" Naruto asked
"I'll explain later." Linda said as she put the anti-meta cuffs on Clariss and handed him to some cops who took him in
Uzumaki Lab
"So what did you do?" Naruto asked in his office
"I got in touch with Kendra on the Waverider and kinda had her do me the favor of convincing my younger self to go into law enforcement."
"Then how do you remember this?"
"Kendra played me a recording of my message and Linda from Earth 2 had a nifty little gadget that allowed my to recall all my memories." Linda explained
"I don't get it, but I'll just roll with it I guess." Naruto thought running a hand across his face, "Why would you do this?"
"Because we need someone on the inside of CCPD, now that Joe is you know."
Naruto nodded, "Where is Kendra?' he asked
"She just returned to St. Roch with Carter." Linda answered
"Hm. Look just be careful alright." Naruto said
"Dont worry, I now have the experience of a cop who has been on the force for 5 years.' Linda replied smiling
Naruto scoffed before he stood up, and wrapped his arms around Linda's waist, as she wrapped her own around his neck, "I can't believe your a cop now."
"It was a spur if the miment decision, besides I was bored with writing about sports anyway. I can actually help the world better as Lady Flash, and Detective Linda Park." Linda shrugged
"I'll support you anyway I can because I love you." Naruto said placing his forehead against Linda's
"I love you too." Linda smiled before the two kissed
Whitney was walking by and saw the two kissing and frowned slightly while watching before she knocked and the two separated, "Yeah?' Naruto asked looking go Whitney
"Everyone is upstairs waiting." Whitney said before she sped off in a bright yellow lightning trail leaving Naruto and Linda to raise an eyebrow
Cortex
A picture of Edward Clairss was on the monitor, "So your saying that Edward Clairss was a speedster in Flashpoint?" Cisco asked getting a nod from Naruto
"Yes, and while I was with Barry he told me about those guy named Alchemy who was giving people powers on his Earth."
"Like a Doctor." Cisco nodded smirking
"Yeah, so there are 4 husk so far and Clariss was responsible for one,"
"That means there are three more Flashpoint metas out there." Linda nodded
"Barry said that Alchemy was a servant for Savitar, and for some reason I feel like I should know this name but I can't place it." Naruto frowned knowing he's heard that name on numerous occasions but couldn't quite remember where but with all that's been going on he wasn't really surprised he couldn't remember what's been going on
"What do we do?" Iris asked
"We find the owners of the other 3 husk, and hope they aren't like Clairss and try to help them." Naruto said getting nods from everyone before they began to get to work but Naruto stopped them, "Not tonight. Let's rest for today and crank it up in the A.M."
Everyone nodded and began to leave with Naruto and the girls going home and Cisco joining leading the team to have dinner, and a game night with the winner getting to choose one thing they wanted from one of the losers and Iris won wishing for a date with Naruto.
