Prologo

All around on a battlefield, fire raged while a giant tree stood tall, "Rasengan!" a voice yelled as a man appeared in a yellow flash with a ball of lightning in hand before he attempted to drive it into the woman with horns and 3 eyes, before she opened a portal and the man fell through before he tried to use his own space-time jutsu to escape when a blinding flash occurred followed by a black hole

Unknown Realm

Naruto Uzumaki shouted in surprise as he fell through some place he had only caught glimpses of whenever he used his Hiraishin jutsu, a vortex of electrical energy surrounded him, before he saw some corpse like thing speeding toward him "Ah!" he screamed putting his hands up to guard himself,

Earth Prime

Central City, USA

March 18, 2000

The next thing Naruto knew he was shooting up in a bed, looking around in confusion, Naruto got up and noticed the ground was closer than it was supposed to be, walking to a mirror his eyes widened when he saw that he was younger, about 11, "What in the hell?" he asked himself before he saw a picture of himself, another boy. and a red haired woman, along with a man they all looked happy "The Allen Family?" he asked himself reading the title on the picture, before he reached to pick it up, but noticed his hand was vibrating very quickly grabbing his wrist to stop his hand, Naruto looked up when the water in his fish tank began to rise in the sky, backing away till he was by his bed Naruto took deep breaths to calm himself down as his hand stopped vibrating

"I need to know where am I." he said before he placed his hands together "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" he whispered only for nothing to happen "What?" he asked looking to his palms and noticing the yang seal was gone, along with his chakra

"Barry!"

Naruto's head snapped toward the door, at the shout, before he headed outside and peaked downstairs to see a boy, on the ground in a puddle of blood while a sobbing woman was trapped in a vortex of red, and yellow lightning

Naruto looked wide eyed, he was powerless here, before memories, began to filter into his head. He was Nathaniel Allen, son to Nora, and Henry Allen, brother to Bartholomew, as he was able to make out a man in yellow, and a man in red, Naruto ran down the stairs "Barry!" he yelled checking on his brother as the man in red began land blow after blow on the man in yellow, looking up Naruto tried to run to his mom, when he was suddenly grabbed by the man in red

"Nathan!" Nora screamed as Naruto was taken in a blur of yellow lightning, before she screamed out when the man in yellow drove a knife through her heart

With Naruto

Naruto fought in the grip of the man in red punching him in the face, before a knee to the man's ball caused him to shout and fall to the ground releasing Naruto,

Naruto grunted as he rolled away, while the man was clutching his privates, as Naruto scrambled up to his feet, and ran over to the man and grabbed him by his neck before he began to squeeze, while chakraless, he was still strong as any heavy weightlifter

"Who are you!" Naruto shouted at the man, before the man began to vibrate causing Naruto to gasp and release him before the man was on his feet, holding Naruto up by the back of his collar "Let me go, you son of a bitch!" Naruto swung his arms and legs with all his might but with his short stature he was unable to land a blow

"Relax kid."

Naruto stopped struggling looking wide eyed as the man took off his mask to reveal an older version of him, maybe in his late 20s "I don't have much time, Naruto listen to me. Your chakra is gone for good, no more ninjutsu, or seals. The most you'll be able to do is enhance your speed, and strength. That man was Eobard Thawne, he wanted to kill you, I had to get you to safety. Nora, and Barry had to die, it's a fixed point in the timeline. Under no circumstances are you to change it."

"What are you talking about?!" Naruto asked, thoroughly confused

"This is your life now. The Elemental Nations is gone. Your name is Nathaniel Allen, one day you'll be a hero in this world. Learn anything, and everything about this world. I have to go, you won't remember this encounter for a few years." Flash said as he poked Naruto's forehead

Naruto grunted as his older self dropped him on his ass, before he sped off into a blue portal, with a grunt he grabbed his head and looked around in confusion, before he got to his feet and ran home, in time to see his father being taken to jail, while Barry, and Nora were declared deceased

From Jinchurriki To Speedster

A temporal anomaly is a disruption in the spacetime continuum which can be related to time travel. Temporal anomalies can take many forms and have many different effects, including temporal reversion, the creation of alternate timelines, and fracturing a vessel into different time periods.

In the year 2000, Eobard Thawn aka the Reverse Flash traveled back in time and killed Nora, and her son Barry Allen, causing a large fracture in the timeline, Eobard was trapped in an alternate timeline,

An anomaly presented itself in the form of Nathaniel Allen, Barry's brother who witnessed everything the night of the murder

That night changed Naruto, he tried to tell the police what really happened but no one believed him, even saying he needed to go to therapy.

Naruto couldn't belive it, it was like he was destined to get the short end of the stick, he had memories of a life he never lived. Memories of a happy family, he was protective of Barry, and loved Nora and Henry with all his heart, but Barry and Nora were dead, and Henry was sentenced to life in prison for their murders.

His chakra was gone, and not coming back, and his damn hand would vibrate at inopportune times, before one day it all suddenly just stopped, which he was thankful for.

Naruto breezed through school, graduating high school at the age of 16, and going to multiple colleges till he became a CSI at the age of 24, he could've been employed at S.T.A.R Labs after Harrison Wells reached out to him, but he declined wanting to be in law enforcement as a way to work to get his father out of prison.

Naruto's life was normal enough, he had a few girlfriends, one of which happened to be Iris West who was his on and off girlfriend since they were 13, with Naruto's issue with Iris wanting to keep them a secret getting in the way, but they stayed best friends.

Currently Naruto was walking into his lab, after he had kicked a man's as when he stole Iris's laptop, which caused him to not be able to get in to see the particle accelerator turn on, at S.T.A.R Labs.

Naruto didn't feel all that bad about it, because his trip to Starling City had been interesting he had met the Arrow, and saved his life, it also wasn't bad that he had met an old girlfriend from college, Felicity Smoak the beautiful nerdy computer girl, had been a welcome sight for sore eyes.

Putting up his equipment, Naruto turned on the computer for the live coverage on the particle accelerator being turned on,

"I'm Linda Park and we're live outside S.T.A.R. Labs despite the inclement weather, which is only going to get worse. The torrential downpour has driven away almost all of the protestors though S.T.A.R. labs CEO Harrison Wells has assured us that the storm tonight will no way affect the Particle Accelerator, which is running smoothly." The news woman said as Naruto went over to his board which showed a map of Central City.

He removed the map to show his wall of weird. A collections of pictures, news articles, anything at all that was weird or unexplainable that could in some way help him explain what happened to his mother, and brother. He put up another article about the Starling City break in at Applied Sciences. In the dead center of the board was the news article about his mother, and brothers murder and his father's incarceration at Iron Heights.

Naruto stared at the board, for a moment "I'll find the man in yellow, and free dad I promise." Naruto whispered as thunder roared in the sky

"Wait! We are now being told to evacuate the facility!" Naruto stopped looking at the board and turned to his computer "The storm may have caused an malfunction to the primary cooling system. Officials are now trying to shut down the Particle Accelerator, but so far have been unable to regain control of the syste-"

Naruto looked up when the power suddenly went out, looking out his window toward S.T.A.R Labs, Naruto saw an giant explosion, as a bright orange light filled the sky, as a shockwave originating from the lab swept through the city and killed the power all throughout Central City.

"That's not good." Naruto said walking over to the chains that connected to his roof which was leaking, and with a quick pull he closed it, before a small electrical current went through the chain, and he found his hands were stuck, before he noticed that various chemicals around his lab were floating in the air, before he looked up to the glass window in his ceiling just as a bolt of lightning broke through the glass, and struck him,

Screaming in pain, Naruto was thrown back into his shelve of chemicals, before he was rendered unconscious as red electricity crawled up his cheek into his brain.

Unknown Realm

Naruto's eyes snapped open to see he was inside a vortex of electrical energy "This place again?" he asked looking around before the vortex was vanished and in its place was his room at his old home

Turning around Naruto gasped when he saw Barry "Barry?" Naruto asked breathlessly

"I'm not Barry." Naruto frowned

"Then who are you?" Naruto asked

"When the first subatomic particle sprang forth from the Big Bang to form reality as you know it, we were there. When the last proton decays, stops vibrating, and plunges the universe into heat death, we'll be there too." Barry said as Naruto looked at him in confusion "We are called the Speed Force."

"Speed Force." Naruto repeated

"Yes, you've been here before." the manifestation of the Speed Force said "Your old technique the Hiraishin, allowed you to appear her when you'd flash to someplace, then during your fight with Kaguya you fell through here."

"Why am I here now?" Naruto asked

"14 years ago, your mother and brother were killed. Your brother Barry was supposed to become a hero, but an enemy of his killed him, and your mother. Barry's destiny has been passed on to you. To prove your worthy, you need to catch that." the manifestation said looking behind Naruto

Naruto turned around to see a shadowy figure, before it zipped off, Naruto looked back to the manifestation who nodded before he gave chase

9 Months Later

S.T.A.R. Labs

Naruto gasped awake to see he was in some sort of lab, seeing some guy, and a woman Naruto asked "Where am I?"

"He's up!" the woman said, as Naruto began to unhook the wires from his body,

"Doctor Wells, get down to the cortex, like right now." The man said over the microphone

"-over 110. Pulse 120. Pupils equally reactive to light." the woman was checking on Naruto as he looked away when she shined a light in his eye "Look at me." she said as Naruto got up

"Hey hey. Oh, oh, relax. Everything's ok, man." Naruto looked at the man as he stood up "You're at S.T.A.R. Labs."

Naruto looked at the man confused "S.T.A.R. Labs? Who are you people?"

"I'm Cisco Ramon. She's Caitlin. Doctor Snow." Cisco said as Caitlin held up two small plastic containers

"I need you to urinate in this." Caitlin said causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow as Cisco snatched the containers

"Not this second."

"What is happening?" Naruto asked stepping away from the two and turning to face them

"You were struck by lightning, dude." Cisco said

Naruto looked confused as he looked down at his body "Your muscles should be atrophied, but instead they're in a chronic and unexplained state of cellular regeneration." Caitlin said feeling on his torso with a slight blush

"Come here, have a seat." Cisco said leading Naruto to the bed where he sat "You were in a coma."

"For how long?" Naruto asked in surprise

"Nine months." a familiar voice said causing Naruto to look back and see Harrison Wells in a wheelchair "Welcome back, Mister Allen. Nice to see you again, we have a lot to discuss."

Moments Later

Naruto in a S.T.A.R Labs sweatshirt walked beside Harrison as he lead him through a hallway "S.T.A.R. Labs has not been operational since FEMA categorized us as a class 4 hazardous location. many more were injured. Myself amongst them."

The two came upon the pipeline of the accelerator to see it was trashed "Damn." Naruto said kneeling down and looking around

"Nine months ago, the particle accelerator went online, exactly as planned. For forty-five minutes I had achieved my life's dream and then then there was an anomaly. The electron volts became unmeasurable, the ring under us popped, energy from that detonation was thrown into the sky,"

"-and that, in turn seeded a storm-cloud that created a lightning bolt that struck me." Naruto finished

"That's right." Harrison said impressed before before they headed back to the cortex "I was recovering myself, when I heard about you. The hospital was undergoing unexplainable power outages every time you were going into cardiac arrest, which was, actually a misdiagnosis, because you see, you weren't flat-lining, Nathan, your heartbeat was moving too fast for the EKG to register it. Now, I'm not the most popular person in town these days but, Detective West and his daughter gave me permission to bring you here, where we were able to stabilize you."

"Iris?" Naruto asked

"Iris, yes. She came to see you quite often." Harrison said

"She talks a lot." Caitlin said walking over and handing Wells his coffee

"Also, she's hot." Cisco added

"I need to go." Naruto said heading toward the exit

"No, you can't." Caitlin aaid

"No, no, no, Caitlin's right, now that you're awake, we need to do more tests." Wells said turning his chair to face him "You're still going through changes, there's so much that we don't know."

"I'm feel fine, really. Thanks for saving my life." Naruto said leaving

CC Jitters

Naruto in a gray v-neck, and black jeans walked into the coffee shop, as he looked around before his eyes caught the tearful shocked and happy ones of Iris, who ran up to him and jumped into his arms

"Oh my God! You're awake!" Iris said she pulled back and looking him over "Why didn't S.T.A.R. Labs call us?"

"I just woke up." Naruto said with a smile

"Should you even be on your feet?" Iris asked worriedly

"Iris, I'm ok." Naruto said cupping her cheek with a soft smile,

"I watched you die, Nate. You kept dying and your heart kept stopping." Iris said sadly before Naruto grabbed her arm and placed it to his chect

"Still beating." Naruto said

"Yeah, really fast." Iris noted

Naruto with a smile suddenly looked up when the world around him slowed to a crawl, as a waitress was bumped into by a customer causing her to lose control of the platter she was carrying

Looking around Naruto turned back to Iris just as the world sped up again, before Iris looked back upon hearing the sound of shattered glass

The waitress began cleaning up the coffee around the shattered mug just as Iris asked "Are you ok, Tracy?"

"Yeah, I got it." Tracy said looking up as Iris nodded and turned to Naruto

"My dad is gonna be so happy to see you. Let me get my stuff, ok? I'll be right back." Iris said as Naruto nodded as she walked off, while Naruto took a deep breath and walked over to Tracy

"Let me help with that." Naruto said kneeling down in front of her

"No, I got it. I'm glad your feeling better Nate." Tracy said with a small blush as Naruto smiled and began to help her anyway by picking up pieces of the mug

30 Minutes Later

Central City Police Department

After helping Tracy, Naruto and Iris walked to the Police Department, where he met Joe, currently the two were hugging as other officers stood around with smiles "Oh, you scared the hell out of us, kid."

Naruto pulled away when an old cop walked by "Yeah, that was quite the nap you take there, baby-face. And you still look twelve."

"And you look like your pushing 70." Naruto replied causing the cop to chuckle and pat his shoulder

"Glad your back." the cop said getting a nod from Naruto before the cop walked off

"You look ok. Are you really?" Joe asked concerned as he put a hand on Naruto's shoulder

"Never felt better." Naruto smiled before he and Joe looked back as an officer walked up

"Detective West, we've got a 5-50 in progress at Gold City Bank. Two dead. Storm's really picking up on the south side. Grab your rain gear."

"I'm sorry, Nate, I gotta run." Joe said walking to get his coat

"Need my help?" Naruto asked

"No, you take it easy. There'll be plenty for you to do once you've settled in. Let's go partner." Joe said before he walked off

"Hey, Allen. Glad to see you." Eddie Thawne said putting on his jacket

"Thanks, Eddie." Naruto nodded

"Hey, Iris." Eddie said with a large smile causing Naruto to raise an eyebrow

"Detective, you should go, my dad doesn't like to be kept waiting." Iris said blankly

Eddie sighed and looked back to Naruto "Glad you're back." he said before he ran to catch up to Joe

"What was that about?" Naruto asked

"Hm?" Iris asked seeing Naruto's look "It's nothing."

"Right." Naruto nodded before he noticed a glass case with a familiar picture walking over he looked at it closely

"The night of the explosion, Clyde Mardon shot and killed Chyre. Mardon and his brother died trying to escape their plane crash." Iris said

"Iris! Got a minute?" the old cop from earlier called getting Iris attention before she walked over to him, while Naruto focused on the photo of his friend

"Hey Nate." Naruto looked up to another cop who smiled at him "Good to see you."

Naruto with a smile nodded his head, before the world slowed down again as he noticed the criminal they were book reach for an officers weapon, on instinct he sped forward and pushed him before he was back where he was standing

"Screw you!" the criminal shouted as the cops dragged him to the back while Naruto realized what he did

"No, no, no. It was just a weird dream." Naruto thought before Iris walked over

"You ok?" Iris asked

"Yeah I'm fine. I just need some air. I'll call you tonight. All right?" Naruto said before he kissed her cheek and was gone while she watched after him worriedly

Outside

Naruto walked behind the police station and looked around before he looked down to his hand, which was vibrating at high speeds for the first time in 13 years "No, not again." Naruto said clutching his wrist

Taking a step forward Naruto, he suddenly found himself about to run into the dumpster but he managed to stop in time, Naruto looked back at his previous position when his eyes glazed over

Flashback

Speed Force Dimension

Naruto was looking at the manisfestaion of his little brother "When you leave here, you will be endowed with the powers of a Speedster."

End Flashback

Naruto stepped back from the dumpster before he took a deep breath and suddenly took off, running through Central City at high speeds before he came upon S.T.A.R. Labs

Looking around, Naruto suddenly noticed his shirt was on fire, quickly as possible he tool it off and walked into the lab

Later

Ferris Air Testing Facility

Cisco, Caitlin, and Harrison were waiting for Naruto who was changing

"You don't really think he could run that fast do you?" Caitlin asked Harrison

"I believe that anything is possible, and hopefully in a moment you will to." Harrison said

Cisco walked over to the trailer and knocked on the door as he asked "How does it fit?"

Naruto walked out in a tight red running suit "It's a little snug."

"At least you'll be moving so fast, no one will see you." Cisco smirked as Naruto took off the ridiculous helmet they had him put on and walked beside Cisco "See, you thought the world was slowing down, it wasn't. You were moving so fast, it only looked like everyone else was standing still. Doctor Wells will be monitoring your energy output, and Caitlin your vitals."

"What do you do?" Naruto asked with an raised eyebrow as he took off his goggles

"I make the toys, man. Check it. This, is a two-way headset with a camera I modified. Typically designed to combat battlefield impulse noise, or in your case, potential sonic booms. Which would be awesome." Cisco said holding up an earpiece with a lightning bolt he designed before he took the helmet and walked to the side as Caitlin walked over and began to calibrate her tablet to the equipment on his suit so she could read his vitals

Noticing Naruto watching her she asked "What?"

"Nothing. Just noticed that you seem heartbroken." Naruto said causing Caitlin to stop and look up at him

"My once promising career in bio-engineering is over. My boss is in a wheelchair for life. The explosion that put you in a coma, also killed my fiance."

"Sorry for your lost." Naruto said getting a nod from Caitlin before she walked off

"Mister Allen, while I am extremely eager to determine your full range of abilities, I do caution restraint." Harrison said as Naruto nodded

"Yeah." Naruto said as Cisco handed him back the helmet "Alright, let's do this."

After placing on the helmet Naruto got into his starting position, before he took a deep breath as the pupils in his eyes suddenly became slits, while lightning flashed across his pupils (Think Zone from Kuroko no Basket)

Naruto suddenly took off, the force of his take off caused Cisco to fall back, while Harrison's wheel chair skid backwards, and Caitlin stumbled back

With a wide excited smile, Cisco got back on his feet, and trained his speedometer on Naruto, while Caitlin watched in shock

As he was running, orange static flickered on his forehead, before it before to fly off his body while he ran even faster

"He just passed 500 knots per hour." Cisco reported as Naruto continued to accelerate

"That's not possible." Caitlin whispered watching through binoculars,

Harrison looked up from his computer "He's faster than I anticipated." he thought

Naruto was running with a smile on his face before he frowned as his mind drifted back to the night his brother and mother died and he remembered bits and pieces of the conversation he had with his older self

Shaking his head, Naruto's eyes widened when he saw he was headed toward a barricade of cans trying to run around it Naruto, didn't clear it as he ran into the side causing water to shot up into the sky as he destroyed the large cans, sitting up with a grimace as he clutched his broken wrist Naruto grunted and sped back to Caitlin seeing as she was the resident doctor.

3 Hours Later

S.T.A.R Labs

Naruto was sitting on the med bay as Caitlin walked over "It looks like you had a distal radius fracture." Caitlin said showing him his x-ray with her tablet

'Had?" Naruto asked before Caitlin went to the next slide

"It's healed. In three hours." Caitlin said

"That's faster than usual." Naruto thought before he looked at Caitlin "How is that even possible?"

"We don't know. Yet."

Cisco walked by with the damaged helmet "You really need to learn how to stop." he said causing Naruto to grin

"What happened out there today? You were moving pretty well, and then something caused you to lose focus." Harrison asked rolling up to Naruto

"I started remembering something." Naruto said before Harrison looked at him expectantly and with a sigh, he said "When I was 11, my mother, and brother were murdered."

Caitlin and Cisco stopped working and looked toward him "It was late, a sound woke me up. I came downstairs, and I saw my brother in front of what looked like a ball of lightning. Inside the lightning, there was a man. Dressed in yellow with a red symbol on his chest. He killed my mom, and my brother. They arrested my dad. He's still sitting in Iron Heights for their murder. Everyone, the cops, the shrink, they all told me what I saw was impossible. But what if the man who killed them was like me?"

"Well I think I can say unequivocally you are one of a kind." Harrison said while Naruto looked at him

Later

Naruto was walking to clear his head, with this speed, what was he supposed to do now, sure he could help people that's always been what he was about protecting his home and friends, but speed and rusty fighting skills couldn't really cut it, especially if there were other people out there that were affected by the explosion.

With a sigh he looked to the side to see Iris kissing Eddie "Eobard Thawne, huh?" he thought clenching his fist "I'll find you."

Naruto looked up to see Iris looking at him, before he motioned for her to come over and she joined him on his walk

The two walked in silence for a few minutes before Iris said "You can't tell my dad about Eddie."

"Just like I couldn't tell him about us?" Naruto asked causing Iris to look down "How did this even happen?"

"When you were in the hospital, Eddie covered my father's shifts so that we could both be with you. I thanked him with a cup of coffee, and things just kind of happened. And it's good."

"Dating your partner's daughter, isn't that kinda weird?" Naruto asked

"You sound upset." Iris noted

"Well, I didn't like lying to Joe when we were dating, and that hasn't changed." Naruto said stopping to look at Iris who nodded in understanding

Naruto looked up suddenly when he heard sirens and turned to see a squad car get hit and lose control heading toward him and Iris, quickly he grabbed Iris and got her out of the way "Make sure he's ok, I'm going to get the license plate." Naruto said to Iris who nodded before she ran to help the officer and Naruto sped off

Catching up to the Mustang in no time Naruto jumped into the passenger seat, Clyde Mardon looked at him in shock before he tried to go for his gun, but Naruto punched him in his jaw, and grabbed him by his head before slamming his face into the steering wheel causing Clyde to loose control of the car, and it to roll over

Climbing out of the overturned car, Naruto saw Clyde walking away "Hey!" Naruto shouted walking toward Clyde who turned toward him with a glare before be raised his arms and fog came out of nowhere blanketing the street

Naruto looked around "Wow, a modern day Zabuza." Naruto said as Clyde dissapered into the fog,

Tires screeching caused Naruto to turn around as the fog began to lift as a car slammed into the overturned car and exploded while Naruto sped out of the way, and ran back to Iris

Later

Paramedics stretchered a corpse onto the ambulance, while police were around taking statements as Naruto and Iris watched "That poor man. The way that fog came in, I have never seen anything like it."

"Nate! Iris!" Joe shouted running over as they turned to him

"I'm all right, Dad." Iris said as he looked her over before Joe turned to Naruto

"What the hell were you thinking having her out here?"

"We were taking a walk Joe, that's it." Naruto said

"No, no, no I told you! When you see danger, you run the other way! You're not a cop!" Joe said looking to Iris

"Because you wouldn't let me be!" Iris replied

"You're damn right!" Joe retorted

"Joe, I need to talk to you." Naruto said walking away

"It can wait." Joe said looking at Iris

"No, now." Naruto said causing Joe to turn to him and walk over "Clyde Mardon is the one who did this. I know, everybody thinks he died in a plane crash after the S.T.A.R. Labs explosion, but he is alive. All right, something happened to him that night. I think he can control the weather. The recent robberies, they all happened during freak meteorological events. And when I just confronted Mardon, the street was instantly enveloped in fog."

Naruto seeing Joe's face scoffed "Of course you don't believe me." he said shaking his head

"Ok. You wanna do this now? Fine. Mardon is dead. There is no controlling the weather, Nate. Just like there was no lightening storm in your house that night. It was your brain helping a scared little boy accept what he saw."

"My dad did not murder my mom or Barry." Naruto said seriously

"Yes, he did!" Joe shouted pointing at Naruto "Your dad killed your mother, and Barry, Nate. I am sorry, son, but I knew it, the jury knew it, now he's paying for what he did."

"Dad, enough!" Iris said walking over

"No, Iris! I have done my best to take care of you since that night, and I never asked for anything in return, not even a thank you, but what I do ask now, is that you for once in your life, see things as they are." Joe ranted

Naruto looked at Joe and nodded, before he looked to Iris "I'll see you late Iris." he said as she looked at him worriedly before he walked off, Iris glared at Joe before she ran off

Joe sighed and shook his head before he looked up when Eddie walked over "You're not going to believe this. We've got the eyewitness' sketch of the robber from the bank job." Eddie said as he showed Joe a sketch and Joe's eyes widened seeing it "If I didn't know better, I'd say that's Clyde Mardon. But that's impossible, he's dead, right?"

Joe looked up after Naruto but he was already gone

S.T.A.R Labs

Cisco, Caitlin, and Harrison were all in the cortex working on the data they collected from Naruto when he walked in "Who else was affected by the particle accelerator explosion?"

"We don't know for sure." Harrison said

"You said the city was safe, that there was no residual danger. But that's not true, so what really happened that night?"

"Well, the accelerator went active, we all felt like heroes, and then, it all went wrong. A dimensional barrier ruptured, unleashing unknown energies into our world, anti-matter, dark energy, - X-elements" Wells said as he showed Naruto a diagram

"Those are all theoretical." Naruto said walking over to the screen

"And how theoretical are you? We've mapped dispersion throughout and around Central City but we have no way of knowing exactly what or who was exposed. We've been searching for other metahumans, like yourself."

"Metahumans?" Naruto asked with an raised eyebrow

"That's what we are calling them." Caitlin said

"I saw one today. He's a bank robber, and he can control the weather." Naruto said

"This just keeps getting cooler!" Cisco cheered

"This is serious Cisco, a man died." Naruto said looking to Cisco who frowned and nodded

"Mardon must have gotten his powers the same way I did. From the storm cloud. He's still out there. We have to stop him before he hurts anyone else." Naruto said headed toward the exit

"Nate!" Wells called causing Naruto to turn toward him "That's a job for the police."

"I work for the police, and this is beyond them." Naruto said

"Your a forensic assistant." Wells replied

"You're responsible for this. For him." Naruto reminded

"What's important is you! Not me. I lost everything. I lost my company. I lost my reputation. I lost my freedom. And then you broke your arm, and it healed in three hours. Inside your body, could be a map to a whole new world genetic therapy, vaccines, medicines, treasures, Nathan. Deep within your cells, and we cannot risk losing everything because you wanna go out and play hero! You're not a hero. You're just a young man who was struck by lightning."

Naruto narrowed his eyes and stepped forward "That may be true Harrison, but this young man that was just struck by lightning doesn't have to listen to a damn word you say."

Naruto looked to Caitlin and Cisco "Thank you both, for taking care of me when I was in the coma." Naruto turned around and sped off while Harrison looked troubled

Minutes Later

Starling City

Naruto stood on a rooftop with his friend Oliver Queen who was in his Arrow uniform "And that's what happened, 9 months in a coma I wake up now I can run faster then the speed of sound, and the first chance I try to stop someone, an innocent person dies."

Oliver turned to Naruto "If you really do this you're gonna make mistakes. I've made mistakes. But the good you do will far outweigh the bad." Oliver said

"I'm not a hero? According to some I'm just some guy who was struck by lightning?" Naruto said

"I don't think that bolt of lightning struck you, Nate. I think it chose you. You can be better than me. Because you can inspire people, in a way that I never could. Watching over your city like a guardian angel, making a difference saving people. In a flash." Oliver said as Naruto looked thoughtful before Oliver put on his mask "Take your own advice. Wear a mask."

Naruto smirked, before Oliver shot his grappling arrow and jumped off the roof, as Naruto watched "Cool." he said

Oliver planted his feet on the side of a building and looked out toward the interstate to see Naruto zoom by cars in a blur of red "Cool." he said before leaving,

30 Minutes Later

Central City

Naruto was in his lab speed reading through unsolved cases from the past 9 months, and the sharp increase in unexplained deaths, and missing people, stopping and rubbing his eyes he heard "Nate?"

Turning around Naruto saw Caitlin and Cisco "What're you two doing here?" he asked with a raised eyebrow

"We want to help." Caitlin said

"Are you sure? I mean this will be very dangerous."

"You were right, we're responsible for the meta humans, and it's our responsibility to stop them." Caitlin said getting a nod from Naruto

"If we're gonna do this I have something that might help." Cisco said with a smirk as Naruto raised an eyebrow

1 Hour Later

S.T.A.R Labs

Naruto was looking at the red suit in shock, it was a darker version of the one from that night "Something I've been playing with. It's designed to replace the turnouts firefighters traditionally wear. I thought that if S.T.A.R. Labs could do something nice for the community, maybe people wouldn't be so angry at Doctor Wells anymore."

"How is it gonna help me?" Naruto asked

"It's made of a reinforced tripolymer, it's heat and abrasive resistant, so it should withstand your moving at high-velocity speed. And the aerodynamic design should help you maintain control. Plus, it has built-in sensors, so we can track your vitals, and stay in contact with you from here." Cisco explained

"Thanks." Naruto said with a nod to Cisco who smiled "Now, how do we find Mardon?"

Caitlin who was on her tablet looked up "I re-tasked S.T.A.R. Labs satellites to track meteorological abnormalities over Central City. We just got a ping. Atmospheric pressure dropped 20 millibars in a matter of seconds. I've tracked it to a farm just west of the city."

Naruto smirked as he walked over to the suit

Farm

Joe and Eddie pulled up to the farm, and got out of the car, Joe had been trying trying to reach Naruto but he wasn't picking up, turning to Eddie he said "I'm not saying Mardon is alive, but if he was, this is the last place him and his brother hid out. Let's go."

Joe and Eddie made their way toward the barn, and hearing noise the two pulled their weapons and walked in quietly to see Clyde sitting in a stack of hay looking down "Mardon? On your feet. Hands on your head." Joe ordered

"You got me." Clyde smirked not moving as Eddie motioned for Joe to go ahead as Joe put up his gun and got his cuffs "The night of the storm, after S.T.A.R. Labs blew. After our plane went down, and I woke up on the ground, alive. When I saw what I could do, I understood. I am God."

"Shut the hell up!" Joe said, walking up as Mardon stood up with his arms raised "Turn around."

Clyde with a smirk turned around as Eddie got closer before Joe noticed wind picking up before Clyde swung his arms and he and Eddie were thrown back with Eddie hitting his head and getting knocked unconscious

"You think your guns can stop God?!"

"Why in the hell would God need to rob banks?" Joe asked in return over the roaring wind

"You're right. I've been thinking too small." Clyde said before he formed a tornado

Joe shocked grabbed his unconscious partner and hurried out of the bar toward his car, when the twister burst out of the barn, and the force threw Joe and Eddie into the side of the car

Joe watched on in shock as the twister began to move toward the city, when he looked up and saw a piece of debris flying at him, putting his arms up to block he didn't see Naruto arrive in a red blur and tackle the debris in midair before he landed with it on top of him

Joe looked confused at the debris that was about to hit him and his unconscious partner, before he looked shocked when a man in red stood up and tossed the debris away, before he took off the oxygen mask,

"Nate, this thing is getting closer. Wind speeds are 200 miles per hour, and increasing." Cisco said over the come "Nate, can you hear me?"

"Yeah. Loud and clear." Naruto said

"If it keeps up, this could become an F5 tornado." Cisco reported

"It's headed towards the city." Naruto said trying to figure out what to do. "I'm going to unravel it."

"How the hell are you gonna do that?" Caitlin asked

"I'll run around it in the opposite direction, cut off its legs." Naruto said

"You'd have to clock 700 miles per hour to do that. Your body may not be able to handle those speeds. You'll die."

"I have to try." Naruto said before he looked to the dumbfounded Joe and shot off, Joe immediately stood up and watched as the mystery man sped around the twister

S.T.A.R Labs

"The suit's holding up." Cisco said excited looking at the readings

"But he's not." Caitlin said worriedly

"He can do it. I know he can do it."

Farm

Naruto continued to run, around the twister trying to speed up and fight against the wind, when Clyde who was inside the twister swung his arms at him hitting him in the ribs with a bolt of lightning

"Ugh!" Naruto shouted in pain he tumbled away before he got to his feet "That didn't work." Naruto said looking for a different approach

"It's time to think big." Clyde said as he strengthened his twister

"You can do this, Nate." Wells said over the comlink "You were right, I am responsible for all this. So many people have been hurt, because of me, and when I looked at you, all I saw was a potential victim of my hubris, and yes, I created this madness, but you, Nathan, you can stop it. You can do this now, run! Nathan, run!"

Naruto shot back to the tornado, as electricity began to arc off his body as he sped up

Clyde watched as the red blur speed around the twister, and he could feel himself losing control of the twister as it began to unravel, Naruto braced himself when he finally unraveled the twister as the burst of wind knocked him to the ground

Breathing deeply he took off his mask, and got to his feet "Hey!" turning around Naruto saw Clyde with his gun aimed at him "I didn't think there was anyone else like me."

"I'm not like you." Naruto said getting ready to make a move before Clyde went down with two bullet holes in his back, as Joe ran up looking at Naruto in shock

"Nate?" Caitlin asked

"It's over." Naruto said causing the three scientist to breathe a sigh of relief as Naruto looked at Joe who was looking at him in shock

Later

Morning

Naruto after changing into a jacket, some jeans and a t-shirt stood beside Joe who was deep in thought before he spoke "What you can do it was the lighting bolt?"

"More or less." Naruto said looking over to the ambulance as Eddie was getting checked on

"I'm sorry, Nate. I'm sorry I didn't believe you. And I called you crazy for chasing the impossible. But you really did see something that night your mom, and brother died."

Naruto sighed "And your dad is innocent." Naruto looked back at Joe who turned to him "I need you to promise me something. I don't want you telling Iris about anything you can do."

"You can't be serious Joe, she should know that there are others out there like me, probably using their abilities to do bad things." Naruto replied

"I'll tell her when the time is right, but for now I don't want her to know any of it. I want her safe. Promise me." Joe said

"Yeah." Naruto sighed

S.T.A.R Labs

Harrison Wells in his wheelchair pressed his hand on the wall, before the panel next to it opened up and he rolled into the room, and stood up from his chair, and tossed his glasses onto it, before he walked to the small panel, and placed a hand on it.

Suddenly a newspaper article of Naruto's Flash suit, and an all white suit with yellow thunder marks on it appeared with the headline "Flash changes name to Godspeed."

Harrison frowned as he saw the date April 25, 2024, he thought that if Barry's brother became the Flash that would restore his future but apparently not, but hope wasn't all lost, he just needed to keep steering Naruto in the right direction, although the kid was headstrong and seemed able to take care of himself more than he thought he would.

Harrison turned around and got back into his chair and put on his glasses before he exited his secret room and rolled into the Cortex where Cisco was putting an emblem on the suit, while Naruto was at Iron Heights visiting his father.
