《The Flash Oneshots》Reader and Barry
Advertisement
Today is my first day on the job at the C.C.P.D. I'm an detective Joe West's new partner. "Good morning," a man dressed in uniform greets me as I am going in and he out "Good Morning," I nod in thanks to his hands that hold the door. Smiling a dazzeling smile he tries to enchant me but my attention is caught by the Police Department. I've been in the department of course but now I'm not a student but a detective. "Detective [last name]," my partners voice comes from behind a beautiful dark skinned girl
"Just [first name]," I tell him smiling. The girl standing before me is around my age maybe a year older. "[name] this is my daughter Iris. Iris this is my new partner." Iris smiles a small smile that doesn't reach her eyes. "I heard that your son woke up from his coma," I tell Detective West hopeing to clear the bad mood. With that both of the West's become a little brighter, "speaking of I need to go," Iris stumbles over her words, "I have to meet up with my um meet up with an old college friend and then I'm going to see Barry," with that she gives Joe a kiss on the cheek me a farewell wave and sprints out the door.
"She seems happy," I turn towards Joe, "and so do you. I really must meet this Barry," Joe smiles at me. Joe and I have been training together for a few months. Since his partners murder the department has lined me up for the position. Joe and I have grown close over these past few months. He has told me about Iris, Barry, his late partner, his bad habits. As I've told him about my late parents, siblings, and life before Central City. We have grown to form a bond of that of friends.
"Well he's coming in today so you will get to meet him," he tells me as we are heading to the Captains office. "Today?" I turn to him concerned, "he just got out of a coma!"
Chuckling Joe says, "That's Barry for you," pushing open the office door we step in. "Allen?" Captain Singh asks irritated. "He will be back at work today." Shaking his head over his desk covered in stacks of papers Singh sighs, "the kid is late to everything, probably will be late to his own wedding, and yet the day he wakes from a coma he decides to come straight to work."
__________________
The case Singh gave us is at a stand still the man, who appears in odd gusts of wind has yet to be seen since his last attack. "I hate to say it but now we have to wait u tip he decides to attack again," Joe say spinning a pencil at his desk. Leaning up against the windowsill (I have a desk but my nerves are all over the place) I nod. Joe flicking on his phone notices the time, 3:22. "Oh! [Name] I'm so sorry. I totally forgot about lunch."

I smile knowing that he is thinking of more than just this case. "That's okay I had a big breakfast this morning." Slaking his head he throws me my coat from my chair beside his, "Only one of us has to stay here go pick up some food and you can visit the last crime scene too."

"Barry you really should allow us to do some more tests..." The doctor, Caitlin Snow, tells me. Shaking my head I think of Joe and Iris. "I need to go!" I glance around at S.T.A.R. Labs wanting to know what happened to the machine that was going to shape the future but I don't have time. "It was so great to meet you Dr. Wells," I say to my idol, a man now confined to a wheelchair. "Barry really," Dr. Snow pleads with me once more. "Caitlin," Dr. Wells warns the doctor, "Mr. Allen I would suggest that you come back for a check up."
Nodding I turn to leave, "Yeah, sure," looking down I notice the shirt that covers my newfound abs, "oh can I keep this?" I ask slightly bouncing on my feet. I feel so energized! "Yes," Dr. Wells says smiling.
Walking at a fast pace my stomach rumbles as I pass Big Belly Burger but for some reason I really want to go to Jitters, something is pulling me there. I feel as if electricity is running through me I am so hyper.
By the time I reach Jitters I have calmed considerably. Opening the door I groan, so much for rushing to Iris and Joe. The line is just about out the door. My stomach growls again so I decide to stay in the line. "Me too," the pretty [insert hair color] chuckles in front of me. When she turns to face me I have to fight a gasp. She has baffling [eye color] eyes that compliment her tan figure. She is covered in tight almost black blue jeans with a CCPD vest unzipped showing her button up red shirt. I fight the natural instincts of every man as I notice one of her buttons has snagged loose of her top showing off the top of her purple bra. "Mm?" I ask, my mind stuck for a second. Smiling she tells me, "I missed lunch today and for some reason I decided to pass Big Belly Burger up for Jitters. I guess I really am a coffee addict," she smiles again at me.
"Yeah I guess I didn't eat lunch either," I rub my head thinking of what time I woke up, "I passed Big Belly Burger too," I laugh as she nods her head understanding, I then add "I was just drawn here."

"By the way I'm [name] ," she tells me putting her hand out. "I'm Barry Allen, nice to meet you [name]." She looks startled as I shake her hand. "Barry!" She exclaims excitedly. "I have heard so much about you," she tells me causing me to blush a little. "All good things I hope," I try to charm her causing her cheeks to tint a tiny bit. "Of course well if you don't count the few embarrassing childhood stories. I'm your fathers new partner."

While in line the two became fast friends. [Name] caught Barry up on the things he missed and Barry shared some of Joe's secrets. "So the [Fav. Baseball Team] really won the World Series?" Barry says surprised as he and his new friend leave Jitters coffee and brunch in hand . Laughing the beautiful [hair color] nods, "and let's see what else... crime is up as always," looking around she takes note of the brightly covered streets, "Not as bad as Starling though." Barry remembering Felicity and Oliver responds, "They have a hero to fight back." Stopping so that they can cross the street [name] responds, "Hero?" Barry looking shocked, "the Arrow." Turning to face him bread crumbs at the corner of her mouth, "more a criminal than a hero!" She exclaims.
Seeing no cars the two start to cross the street. Smiling Barry notions towards the her mouth. Her brows knit together confused, "what?" "You have something," he reaches his hand up to a mouth. Then everything slows down. There is a car speeding towards them. His hand wipes way the crumbs then without thinking grabs [name]'s waist and rushes out of the way. And when I say rush Barry Allen and [name] seemed to be to only thing moving. The car which was getting closer at 20mph now that time slowed. When he decided that he needs to stop he finds that he can't.
Barry__________
What the-! Why is everything frozen? Why can't I stop? Why isn't [name] moving? Is she in shock? Oh my gosh what is happening?! Stop! Barry "Stop!"
Thankfully there is a truck ahead filled with pillows (how lucky!). Boom! More like squish, but hey it hurt! "What the..." [name] whisper looking at the feathers. "Oh!" She exclaims looking at me. We are laying very much on top of each other so much so that I can literally feel her blush. "Barry your naked..." She says scooting back as far as the confined space will let her. "And on fire!" She yells. Jumping I again slow down time and get us out of the truck. "Well this is new," the driver says with a delivery in his arms looking down at me, naked, patting down my legs which are on fire! And a beautiful girl standing next to me. Not strange at all. "Just another day," he says shaking his head and heading in the back door to the building.
"Barry?" My newfound friend asks her eyes hidden by her hands. Grabbing a pillow I place it in front of me. "I'm decent, kinda." I tell her. Her face bright red she slowly uncovers her eyes. "What was that?" Her eyes go wide and lines form on her forehead as she tries to reason what just happened. "How could you go that fast?" She looks at me than my chest which is slightly burnt. "Are you okay," she asks placing her hand along my chest. Moving it up and down examining it , it appears to heal before our eyes. "What happens while you were in that coma?"
"Look," I tell her taking her hand. Focus Barry!
"I don't know what happened it's like time slowed down. I saw danger. I saw you-us in danger and I just reacted. We will figure this out but first I need clothes."
___________________
The two got clothes from a store near CCPD. [Name] insisting on buying them refusing to let Barry "run" in.
Barry told her of Dr. Wells and the two lab assistants at STAR Labs and how they acted strange. They discussed if they knew anything and came to the conclusion that they must. "Will you come with me?" Barry asks. He knows that they just met but he doesn't want to go alone and he wants needs someone to believe him. After all these years of believing in the impossible he has become the impossible and someone has witnessed it. "Of course," she replays with an assuring smile as if she knows his thoughts.

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
