Who's The Girl?

Barry runs back to S.T.A.R. Labs and is immediately greeted by smiling people.

"Hahaha, Barry, you were amazing out there," Joe says and gives Barry a tight hug. Barry smiles and hugs him him.

"Dude, you handled this situation so easily," Cisco says, and dabs Barry.

"You did great," Caitlin says with her beautiful smile, which makes Barry smile.

"Great work, Mr. Allen," Dr. Wells says.

"Well, all thanks to you guys," Barry shares the credit with the team.

"Joe, here are the keys to the lock-up," Barry says, handing over the keys to Joe. "Why?" Joe asks raising his eyebrow.

"Well, I didn't want guys at CCPD to freak out finding Black locked in a hold-up out of nowhere and accidentally release him," Barry says and gives Joe and sorry smile.

Joe sighs knowing that he is going to have a hard time explaining to the captain why a wanted perp has suddenly appeared inside their holdup out of nowhere, but it's still better than letting his men arrest Black because there is no way normal police can handle him.

"I need to head back to the precinct to deal with your mess," Joe says and leaves.

A few hours go by and the incident at Stagg Industries is already headlines.

[Central City Police have managed to apprehend Danton Black, a former employee of Stagg Industries who attempted to assassinate the CEO Simon Stagg.]

The team watches the news and finds nothing out of the ordinary. Looks like the police decided to keep the matters about Danton Black suddenly appearing inside their lock-up hush-hush, after all, they don't want their reputation to be tarnished.

"He tried to kill himself, but I managed to save him," Barry says seeing the news.

"He didn't want to be saved," Dr. Wells says. "Some people, when they break... They can't be put together again."

"Some people heal even stronger," Barry says showing the difference between his and Dr. Well's mindset. Barry always looks for good in people.

"I hope so," Dr Wells says.

"Well, at least Multiplex won't be able to hurt anyone else," Cisco says emphasizing the word Multiplex. "Told you I'd come up with a cool name," he says, making the team smile.

"Alright guys, time for me to leave. Meet you tomorrow," Barry says and leaves.

Barry Allen, the fastest man alive, runs through the streets of Central City with his team right in his ears.

The thrill of running faster than anything, watching the world zoom past you instantly, and the feeling of lightning coursing through every fiber of his being will never get old.

"Barry, an armored car was just hijacked on Griffin Avenue. Get your ass over there," He hears Caitlin's elated voice in his ear, warning him of another crime taking place. It sounds like everyone on the team is assimilating to the process and is experiencing the thrill of catching bad guys and saving the people of Central City.

With the red blur running around Central City saving people everywhere it goes, more people are finding out about him.

There are thousands of posts on the internet about the red blur, but still, many people are skeptical.

And one person is very keen to learn more about this red blur. Iris West.

Barry and Iris just had their movie night where they watched an underwhelming zombie movie.

"On a regular movie scale it was a seven, maybe even a generous eight, but on a zombie movie scale, I will get it a four," Barry says walking out of the theater with Iris.

"There's a zombie movie scale?" Iris asks. "Yup- Also, did you know that zombies exist in nature? There's this species of fungi that infect ants, causing the ants to attack plants that release spores which, in turn, infect new host ants," As Barry is explaining, he sees Iris smiling at his nerdy behavior. "I am going full nerd, aren't I?" Barry stops and questions.

"Yup," Iris says. "Figures," Barry gives up, as Iris is not someone who would be interested in listening to his nerd talk.

"It's okay though, you are still the cutest nerd that I know. Which makes me question, why doesn't the cutest nerd I know have a girlfriend?" Iris asks looking at him.

"Ah... I don't know..." Barry says, but one girl does pop up in his mind.

"Come on, there must be someone you like," Iris insists. "Well, there is this girl I met recently," Barry says.

"Oh, my god! Who is it?" Iris asks, excited about the prospect of meeting this girl that Barry has taken a liking to.

"Uuaaa... I don't know..." Barry says wondering if he should tell Iris or not.

"Bartholomew Henry Allen, you will tell me who this girl is right here, right now!" Iris gets all bossy.

"Ugh, fine... It's Caitlin," Barry says.

"Caitlin... The girl from S.T.A.R. Labs?" Iris asks.

"Yes," Barry says. "Oh my god, she's so pretty and smart. You two would make a great couple. So, have you asked her out?" Iris asks.

"What? No... It would feel weird to ask her out. She is, after all, my personal physician right now," Barry says scratching the back of his head.

"Enough about me. What's going on with you?" Barry asks.

"I'm currently more interested in the amazing as of late," Iris says. "You still stuck on the Streak thing?" Barry asks. "He's out there. People are talking about him," Iris says.

"How do you know he's even a he? Maybe it's a she," Barry says. "It's a man, okay? You know I am really intuitive about this kind of stuff. Someone even posted a picture after being yanked from a car accident. It's a red blur leaving the scene." Iris says taking out her phone and showing it to Barry.

What Barry sees is an incoming call from Eddie. Barry smiles. "Prince charming," Barry says. Iris gives him a weird look and looks at her phone to see it's her boyfriend. She gives Barry the side eye and answers the call, turning away from him.

Luckily, Barry doesn't have to wait for Iris as she gets all lovey-dovey on her phone with her boyfriend, as his phone begins ringing too.

"Hello," Barry answers the call.

"Code 237 on Waid Boulevard," Cisco says. Barry pulls back his head, confused by Cisco's words. "Public indecency?" Barry asks. "Wait, I think I meant a 238," Cisco tries correcting himself. "Dog leash violation?" Barry asks smiling.

"Bad man with a gun in a getaway car, go." Caitlin steps in and gives it as simple as possible.

Barry looks at Iris and sees she's still busy, so Barry enters super speed and zooms away. He immediately finds the getaway vehicle being chased by a cop car.

He calmly walks up to the getaway vehicle and looks inside. The perp is looking extremely agitated. He is also holding a gun right in his hand as he is driving, ready to shoot the moment the cops get close to him.

'Let me help you with that,' Barry thinks as he takes the gun away. He then grabs the perp, pulls him out of the getaway car, walks him up to the police car, opens the back door, puts the perp inside, takes a handcuff from the officers up front, cuffs the perp's hand, closes the car door, puts the perp's gun in the officer's possession, and zooms away, doing all of that in an instant.

And then returns to his exact position, right outside the theater like he never left.

At the chase, the officers are confused by the perp's sudden disappearance from his car. "Where'd he go?" One of the officers asks when they hear someone behind them. They turn their heads and see the perp sitting in their back seat with his hands cuffed.

"What the--" They can't explain this shit.

"Eddie says hi," Iris says to Barry once her call ends.

"Let's go,"
