Chapter 1: Entrance

I woke up with a start and was confused as to how I got where I was until I was suddenly assaulted with memories. My name was Andrew Anderson and I had died in my last world and I met a god of some sort, was told I was going to be reincarnated and got wishes.

I remember I didn't get to choose the world I would be sent to, but I could choose 3 wishes and my looks.

My wishes were to have the power of Electrokinesis, but the Static Shock version, with a little Infamous mixed in from the Infamous games.

My second wish was to be immune to being hurt by water as I normally would be with both powers.

My third wish was to be given all the knowledge of the world I'd be sent to as far as I'd already known as there may be some changes that will occur due to my entrance into the world.

All the wishes were accepted pretty easily and then I was given the option to choose my looks. I chose to be a young man of part Nordic and part Northern Irish descent although I had jet black hair instead of the normal lighter colored hair of Nordic people and I had ice blue eyes. I had a moderately large build thanks to my heritage and I was naturally strong.

The other memories that hit me, were the world that I was in, I was in the world of CW's The Flash, which means that I can also be affected by the Supergirl, Arrow, and Legend's of Tomorrow plot, it is very good that I got rid of my biggest weakness.

My body was created for me at the age of 24 and I was inserted into the world with a background of a orphan from a relatively well off family. My parents had died when I was 10 in a hit and run because there was a case of mistaken identity and the perpetrators thought my parents were the target.

After my time in the orphanage, I spent some time in the foster care system where i went back and forth from different foster homes and some were not the best, i was beaten and forced to cook and clean like a maid while they were paid by the government to take care of me. Eventually i was placed in a nice home and was there until i turned 18 and moved out to live on my own

When the memories hit, I felt everything, every emotion, every good and bad memory I had with my parents. And even though I hadn't actually met them, I had felt as if I had known them all my life.

'Damn that ROB sure gave me a morbid background'

I had been mostly living off my original inheritance that thankfully my shitty foster parents weren't able to access and just worked as a bike courier, while also being a beta tester for video games. All of this was to make ends meet as I finished my degree. I was trying to get a History Degree and then thought about getting my teaching credentials to become a teacher. It is a very long process and that's why I started quite a while ago.

Evidently, I was on autopilot or something till now and it is now only 2 days until the particle accelerator explosion and I already have my powers, but can't use them until after the explosion as it will be assumed as I am a newly created metahuman. At least I can't use them publically, but I can still use them in my house, which I bought with a part of my inheritance and rent out the other house I bought, which I bought solely to rent it out.

'At least "Autopilot Me" made some good choices money wise.'

It was another way to make some money on the side to start a savings account as I only had all my money in a trust fund and only was able to access it after I turned 18, but I had been on autopilot all that time, otherwise I would've probably invested some money and saved a decent amount.

I was currently in my room and I decided to try and practice with my power a bit. I started with creating tiny sparks between my fingers of either hand and focused on keeping up the charge as long as possible. After that I planned to try and grab onto some of the metal things in my room, most likely I'll start with the jar of quarters on my desk.

I also had to go about making my costume, I don't have an insane amount of money to burn, and I'm sure I can wait until I meet the S.T.A.R. Labs crew to have them make me a suit so I'll have a very simple one for the time being. I am sure I can buy what I need and since I am going to be using Static's namesake from Static Shock as inspiration for my own hero name, I might as well have my suit inspired from him as well after a fashion.

I went to a couple stores to get what I wanted for my makeshift suit and even went to this one fashion store I'd never heard of and got a custom top I had designed for the outfit, I was told It'd be ready in a week.

[AN: I'm not very good at describing things so I'll put the pictures of his suit in the chapter comments after I publish this chapter.]

__________________________________

Just like that, it is the day of the particle accelerator explosion, and I am curious if it will affect me considering I already have powers, but I suppose I'll find out as I get as close as I can to the event.

I am walking near the outside of S.T.A.R labs and it is the evening and the accelerator should be turning on soon or it could already be on, I wouldn't know until it explodes. I was walking by the S.T.A.R. Labs substation and all the sudden the explosion started and I was launched into the substation and I could feel the Dark Matter penetrating my body, and trying to merge it with the electricity from the substation, but it couldn't as I was absorbing it, so the dark matter started to go more surface level and I could feel my body being strengthened by the electricity and It seemed to have increased my absorbtion capacity and I could feel my control over my power slowly increasing. The substation was finally fully drained and I felt to the floor unconscious from the strain, but the Dark Matter didn't seem to be done changing me. The rocks around me started to slowly lift off the ground and then fall again as did the power lines of the substation.

**Gasp**

I don't know how long I was unconscious for, but I could see white walls and there was the scent of disinfectant in the air. I could only assume I was in a hospital. As I opened my eyes I found that my assumption was correct, I was in Central City General and as I looked around I saw a bunch of nurses and doctors walking in and they were very shocked as I seemed to be fine.

Nurses rushed to me.

"Excuse me, do you know your name sir?"

"My name? It's Andrew, uh Andrew Anderson." I replied.

"Slight confusion, normal for the circumstances of the patient." The nurse murmured as she wrote notes on her clipboard.

"I'm sorry, but how did I get here and how long have I been here?" A genuine question because honestly, I half expected to be grabbed by the S.T.A.R labs crew as I was located at their Substation.

'I guess I was somehow moved from the area as why would anyone think to look in that area except for the S.T.A.R labs people.'

"You were found a little ways away from the S.T.A.R. labs building and were in rough shape, you had burns all over your body and many cuts on your skin, you were also unresponsive and as of now, have been in a coma for the last 6 months." She explained.

I looked over my body and I seemed to be perfectly fine there were not even injuries on me.

"I had burns and cuts?" I asked.

"We can't explain how, but you seemed to have healed all your injuries to the point that there were no scars which is amazing to say the least. We couldn't even monitor your vitals because all the equipment we had, kept shorting out before we could use them. We had to manually check your vitals and obviously there could be some human error, but for all intents and purposes, you shouldn't even be alive right now. We are just lucky that our equipment seems to work now." She said carefully explaining what happened.

'Hmm, I must've been so drained after being affected by the Dark Matter that I was absorbing all the electricity from my immediate vicinity so nothing electrical worked, but now that I'm awake it seems to have stopped.'

I tried to get out of the bed, but was promptly stopped.

"I apologize sir, but until we can verify you are in good health, we have to keep you overnight for observation." The nurse said placing a firm hand on my shoulder.

"Okay, that's fine. I have nothing better to do anyway." I said as I laid back down on my hospital bed.

I have made a few changes to this chapter since I first made it, for those of you who are new readers tell me what you think.

As for those who are coming back to read, what do ya think of the changes? I wanted to flesh out the character a bit more.
