Flash #3: First night.

I decided to use my new-found powers to fight crime, like my childhood hero, the Flash. I developed a thermally stable costume, suitable for high speed travel. The suit is made of highly compressible synthetic silk with ultrasonic welded components. In other words, I made a ring that will make my costume form around my body when I activate it.

With this suit my identity would be concealed. Plus the suit allows me to look awesome while fighting crime. That was important information, right?

 

I heard over police scanners that there was a prison break out. The Trickster, an old villain of the original Flash. Seems fitting of me to take him on as my first major case as the Flash.

 

I saw the Trickster evading CCPD squad cars heading down main street. I'll be down there in no time.

 

I got right behind the Trickster and suddenly he started throwing random toys at me. Now, these weren't normal toys. They exploded as I got close to them, jumped up at my face, and even exploded dust and smoke in front of me.

I was too quick to get hit by any of the effects though. The Trickster was right in front of me.

"Hehe! Catch me if you can, Flashy!"

"You asked for it."

I speed up and zoom right next to him. He was quick, almost as fast as me. I had a hard time trying to catch him. He kept throwing toys at me. How many of these things does he have?

 

We got to the docks and I knew he had to stop soon. I chased him all the way down to the end of a dock and I was ready catch him.

Wait, what? He is running on air? How is he doing this?

"Surprised, Flash? Well, don't be. Hehe, I can fly and you can't! Neener neener neener! See you later, I've got people to scare and places to explode."

 

Crap! That idiot can fly. I never knew that about him. I need to think a way to find him now. Knowing him he'll be back soon.
