Chapter Five

Picture above is Joshua Masters.

Barry Allen
Barry sped around the city, while Wally and Jesse kept watch over the other sections of the city. Barry thought about how Cisco knew Joshua Masters. Even though Cisco said it was a long time ago, Barry knew there was something more behind it.

Barry shook his head. If Cisco said this guy was dangerous and he himself was actually terrified of the guy, Barry decided to heed Cisco's warning to be careful.

"Hey Wally, how's it going over on your side of the city?" Barry asked trough his com.

"Nothing over here so far." Wally's voice came over the earcom.

"Same over here Barry." Jesse said before he could ask.

"I got nothing over here ei--" Barry cut himself off when someone appeared in his way and he skidded to a stop or tried to. Barry had been so caught off guard he wasn't watching where he was going and he tripped, falling to the ground and rolling a few meters away from the guy. When he stopped it was because of a wall, which he hit his head against.

"Barry?" Wally asked.

Barry groaned and looked up at the apparent metahuman. And his eyes narrowed a bit. Joshua Masters stood in front of him staring down at him with a smirk.

"Guys, I got eyes on our teleporter." Barry said into his comm, sitting up.

"Oh? You were searching for me huh?" Masters said. Barry looked up only to find that the man had disappeared and reappeared behind him. Barry climbed to his feet and spun around. "Well I was looking for you."

Barry stared at him. "Why?"

"Well I felt this strong energy pulse and it was coming from you." Masters said.

"Barry get out of there!" Cisco yelled in his comm.

Barry didn't question him and began to back away from Masters. The man's smirk deepened and Barry sped off back the way he came. Barry knew without a doubt the man had stood there and watched him leave. Barry ran all the way to the cortex and a gust of wind followed behind him.

"What was that Cisco?! I had that!" Barry exclaimed.

"He was going to push his way into your mind Barry. "He would have found out your secret identity."

"Push his way inside my mind? What he has telepathy too?!" Barry said exasperated.

Cisco nodded. "And telekinesis. The three T's."

Barry shook his head and glanced around at everyone in the room. "Alright. We'll figure this out tomorrow. I'm beat so I'm gonna go home and get some sleep."

🕳🕳🕳🕳🕳
The next day, Barry and Julian walked into CCPD side by side bickering back and forth with each other about how to go about this case with the metahuman, Joshua Masters.

Barry had told Julian about what happened last night and he nearly freaked out. He started ranting about how dangerous this man obviously was and how he should let the police handle it. Barry was actually surprised by Julian's reaction and hadn't known what to say, which would also explain why he was losing the argument.

When they got to the lab, Julian shoved Barry up against the wall, hard enough to knock the air from his lungs and slammed his lips to Barry's. Barry gasped and closed his eyes, enjoying the sensation of Julian's lips against his own.

Barry wrapped his arms around Julian's neck, since the man was a few inches taller than Barry.

And then they were breaking apart just as sudden as the kiss happened.

Barry opened his eyes and looked at Julian, who was staring at him with a foreign emotion in his eyes. Barry blushed under the stare and strode over to his desk, taking a seat.

"I'm taking you on a date tonight Barry. So dress nice." Julian told him before leaving the lab.

Barry found himself biting his lip and smiling proudly. A first date! Finally! Barry couldn't wait but he had to. A date with Julian Albert. That would be very interesting.

Three hours later Barry was on his lunch break, walking down fifth avenue. He was on his way to a good pizza shop when he felt as if someone was following him. His feet itched to run as if sensing danger.

Barry tried not to act on it and walked faster--fast enough to seem normal but not enough to seem suspicious. Barry turned his head, to see if anyone was behind him. No one was. Frowning Barry kept walking...that is before a hand covered his mouth and someone pulled him into an alleyway.

Julian Albert
Julian was waiting in the lab for Barry to return from his lunch break. Barry had said he would be back in thirty minutes an hour and a half ago. Julian was starting to worry.

What if something happened to Barry? What if he was hurt? What if he'd been kidnapped? Or killed?

Julian just knew something was wrong. And when Cisco called him, he knew he was right.

"Barry's in trouble isn't he?" Julian asked already making his way out of the lab.

"Yeah. How--"

"Barry said he would be back from his lunch break in thirty minutes an hour and a half ago." Julian stated. He made his way over to Joe's desk. Joe looked up. "Barry's in trouble."

"Let's go." Joe said and grabbed his jacket.

Barry Allen
Barry woke up bound to a chair and gagged. He started to panic and glanced around frantically. There were plenty of windows and equipment and stairs so Barry could only guess he was in an old rundown factory.

Barry looked around for some way out until he came face to face with Joshua Masters. Barry didn't understand why he had bothered to kidnap him in the first place. Did he know he was the Flash?

Masters studied him curiously for a full two minutes before he said, "So...you're Barry Allen."

Barry just stared at him since all he could do was exactly that. With a gag around his mouth he couldn't talk. Masters smiled and pulled the gag out of his mouth.

"Why am I here?" Barry demanded. "What do you want from me?"

Masters smirked and he definitely reminded Barry of Snart. "Don't know...I just saw you walking down the street and took the opportunity."

"You were following me." Barry realised. He frowned. "Why?"

"Your energy is running off the charts. Kind of like that...speedster from last night. What do you guys call him...the Flash." Masters said. "Your energy is so much like his...."

Barry narrowed his eyes. "You never answered my question. What do you want from me?"

"I want you to join me. Join me in taking out the weak and weaponizing the strong."

Barry scoffed. "You're crazy. I would never help you."

Masters smirked again. "You wanna bet?"

Before Barry could reply, the ropes binding him to the chair undid themselves and then Barry was shooting up into the air, where he hovered 10 meters from the floor. He was so close to the ceiling he could touch it.

"What--what are you doing?! Put me down!" Barry shouted. He admitted he was a bit terrified of heights.

"Will you join me then?"

"Go to hell!" Barry yelled. He regretted saying it immediately as he was thrown across the room. Barry hit the wall hard and fell to the floor, landing on his back. He groaned and pushed himself up to his hands and knees.

Masters gave Barry an intense stare and his head began to hurt horribly, as he heard ringing in his ears. Barry screamed as the ringing became louder and the pain grew. Barry clamped his hands over his ears trying to block out whatever it was but to no avail. Barry screamed again and fell over onto his side, writhing in pain.

And suddenly it stopped.

Barry opened his eyes and watched as someone who looked a lot like Ronnie and two others began fighting Masters. Barry pushed himself to his feet and sped for the door, only to faceplant the minute he took a couple steps. He felt someone pick him up bridalstyle and carry him out of the factory but he passed out before he could see his face.

Stephen Jameson
The guy that John had carried out of the factory had looked fairly familiar. Almost as if he knew him. Stephen wasn't sure if he really knew him or if he'd just seen him a few times. It was probably the latter because he felt some kind of connection with him.

Stephen teleported with John, Cara and Russell to the destroyed laboratory people called S.T.A.R Labs. Once inside someone pulled a gun and aimed it at John.

"What did you do to my son?"

"Nothing." John said. "We saved him."

Stephen looked up and a woman gasped in shock.

"Ronnie?"

A/N: Cliffhanger! Am I awesome...or am I awesome?!

Anyways this is officially a crossover with The Tomorrow People, which has Robbie Amell who played Ronnie Raymond in the Flash before his character died.

Hope you liked it. Next one I'll try to have up soon.
