After The Flash Novels & Stories

They couldn't see him after All. **** T b c

I’ve watched you with your mate and I had to watch you with your destined. I rejected her. Yes and while that’s great, it doesn’t change the fact that I’ve never really had a chance. You’ve shared something with the two of them that I’ll never have. You were fated. While I- Flash came to an abrupt stop and I struggled to stop so I didn’t run into him. He did a 360 and faced me, his eyes glinted mischievously as he stared at me. Flash shifted and turned into Viktor. My eyes searched the surrounding area, Jamie and the Deltas were nowhere in sight.

Each flash showed them clearer. Less ghost. More real. “Keep going,” I said. “I’m trying—!” The energy built around her. Unstable. But controlled enough. For now. The figures hesitated. Just for a moment. That was all I needed. “Now!” The sparks surged outward. Not an explosion— A pulse. A wave. It hit the walls— The floor— The figures— And suddenly— They were all there. Solid. Real. Exposed. I didn’t waste the opportunity.

**Flashback** Michael, with a twisted look of hatred, sneaked into Anna’s restaurant under the cover of night. His hands trembled as he placed the bomb under the table. "I’ll make sure you die, Anna. Say your last prayers," he muttered, his voice dripping with malice before rushing out.

“She’ll be at the shelter Friday night. After the meal run. If she wants to talk, she’ll step outside. If she doesn’t, don’t follow her. Don’t make this worse.” Meekey nodded, hands trembling slightly. “Thank you.” Zoe stood. “Don’t thank me yet. You’ve got one shot.” As she walked away, Meekey gripped the note in her hand like it was made of glass. One shot. And this time, she wasn’t going to miss.

Alex thinks. "One last time," Echo says. "But not sequentially. Simultaneously." "Everything?" I ask. "Everything. All at once. An infinite loop of joy." "The Final Sequence." The Flash. It doesn't start slow. There is no ramp-up. It hits us like a collision between two stars. ZAP. My body—my frail, dying body—vanishes. I am back in my old apartment. I am twenty-five. I am touching myself for the first time under Echo’s guidance. The thrill of discovery. The shame. The heat.

Effryn pulled her out of her own thoughts as a flash of a camera suddenly catches my attention. It was Dana. For some reason, they were all closing onto the two of us, including Effryn's teammates. "Change your clothes, Effryn," I said. I did my best not to show that I was affected by their action. The man only nods his head and then put his chin across my shoulders. "What?" I asked, looking at him. "It's nothing," he said. "Go and take a shower already. Make sure to change your clothes before going to the admin," I added and immediately stepped away from him. I started walking away.

We need one last day of preparation before entering the lions den. *********FLASHBACK OFFICIALLY ENDS********
