Sometimes the Flash Bites

Chapter 1: Mistakes

Background story

Barry knew that making flashpoint was a mistake. He is constantly reminded of that every day by Cisco who was still mourning his brother. Caitlin who was now turning into killer frost because of him. Diggle was also mad at Barry for changing baby Sarah in baby John. Iris, Joe, Wally, Oliver, and Felicity were just in shock and disgusted by what he did. So they ended up suspending him from the team. But since the team was 1 superhero short, Cisco had to become Vibe to help them fight metas.

Present

Ever since Barry created flashpoint he has been feeling weird and that was saying something seeing that he lives in Central City. It got worse when the West family kicked him out the house and he brought his own apartment. He felt sick in a way, and he couldn't go to Catlin about it because she would probably shoot him with an ice blast. Barry didn't even know he could get sick but you learn something new every day. He always felt cold and his skin was slowly turning pale. The only good thing was that he was getting stronger and faster. He couldn't run in central City anymore or at least he didn't want to. So he would just go to the next town over and train there. Also he was able to bench press more than 1,000 pounds about twice as much as Oliver and his muscles got a lot more toned. One day Barry felt extra sick and hungry. It was like nothing he had can full him up. So he decided to go to STAR labs in hopes that Caitlin will help him.

Cisco's POV

"Caitlin I don't know why you would say that. Obviously if you search up 'The Big Bang Theory' the show will pop up."

"That does not explain why the actually theory is hard to find." Caitlin replied.

'No one really cares about that stuff Caitlin. It's not like-"

That was when we saw someone that we never thought we would see in the entry of the doorway.

It was Barry.

It was silent in the room but the tension was so thick you could cut it with a knife. Wally was the first one to speak up.

No one's POV

"B-Barry what are you doing are not supposed to be here."

"Well technically I own the building so"

"That does not matter Barry," Iris added in "You are suspended!"

"It's not that I want to be here. I need help something is wrong with me."

"Then why do you need us Barry." Wally said angrily. Wally couldn't believe Barry just walked in there like it was no one's business. But a part of Wally wanted to forgive him for flashpoint but, just being around Cisco made him dislike him even more

"I am sick or I think I am sick. It's confusing. I feel light headed and I can't really eat anything"

"Just give us a minute Barry", said Iris as they walked into the medical bay.

"Should we trust him" Wally said.

"I think we should" Iris replied. "He does not look so good"

"Are you guys serious! Why should we help him" Cisco couldn't believe that they were even thinking about helping him.

"Cisco are you sure? It doesn't feel right." Caitlin protest.

The team looks at Barry who looks like he is fighting away the urge to faint. Swaying back and forth and his face were paling. Holding on to his jaw.

"Fine, but just see if he is ok" Cisco said as he gave in knowing that he would lose.

"Thanks," Caitlin said as she walks out of the cortex

"Barry, can you lie down on the medical bed for me."

Barry got up and lied down on the bed

"Also can you take of your shirt?"

And he did, Iris and Caitlin couldn't help but stare at Barry. He was jacked. Caitlin was the first one to snap out of it. She ran a few tests on him then proceeded to bring him into the speed lab. She monitored his vitals as he ran and found that his glucose levels where low and his blood pressure. Which was strange 'he looked healthy' Caitlin thought.

Caitlin's POV

After I got the test results I found something that was out of the ordinary. His heart rate was going extremely slow, slower than the average human. This was not good seeing that Barry is a speedster. Maybe that is why he is so sick. Something was wrong really wrong.

Cisco's POV

I couldn't believe that they were just able to trust him. He probably caused this when he created flashpoint. I do not care if he is sorry. 'Sorry' is not going to bring Dante back. I know that we did not get along but that does not mean I want him dead. The team was doing fine without him.

Barry's POV

Caitlin told me I had to go home early and come back tomorrow for the test results. After I left I got in my car and started driving home. On my way home I got a horrible head ache and I had to park my car so I do not crash. It was the worst pain I have ever felt even worse than my fights with zoom and the reverse flash. To top it all off my teeth were hurting like hell. My stomach felt like someone stabbed me and I was starving things couldn't get any worse. I stumbled into the alleyway I fought Oliver in when I got whammied by rainbow raider and fainted. Hours later I woke up to the sound of a women's voice.

"Please, leave me alone I do not have any-"

Bang

I got up and sped over to the woman. Checking to see if she still had a pulse luckily I found one. It looked like she was robbed and shot, I tried looking for any id but then I smelled something good like really good. I got up trying to find out where the delicious smell was coming from. The smell was coming from the woman's body.

Wally's POV

10 minutes ago

After Barry left, it got weird in the cortex. We were debating if we should help Barry or not. Cisco then had the 'brilliant' idea of going out to drink. I just decided to go with it because it got too complicated at STAR labs. It wasn't any fun though; I had to stop a drunken Caitlin from going up to sing. I heard from Barry that her singing wasn't the best. It is just hard to believe that Barry messed up like this. I made a lot of mistakes but never something like this. He changed so many people's lives.' Sorry' can't fix that.

Iris's POV

After we left the bar going to our car (rhyme not intended) we heard an ear splitting scream come from an alley way

"Did you hear that guys," I said looking around.

"Yeah we did and a part of me doesn't want to find out," Cisco said as Caitlin nudged his shoulder.

The four of us quietly followed the sound in an alleyway, while Cisco was getting more freaked out by the minute. At first we saw a woman's body on the ground but as we got closer we could see a figure bent over her and its features. It was muscular and had brown hair. When we were even closer we knew who it was

Barry

Barry's POV

3 minutes ago

When I got closer to the woman's body the smell grew. My stomach growling I bent pulled down the shoulder of the woman's blouse revealing an awful gunshot wound. I put two of my fingers into the wound picking up the crimson liquid. I put the liquid to my nose to see if that was where the intoxicating smell was coming from and sure enough it was. Without thinking I quickly put my fingers in my mouth. It was truly the most delectable thing I have ever tasted. Something inside of me snapped as I grabbed the lady's body and bit down on her neck feasting on the crimson substance. She quickly woke up and after realizing the situation she was in she tried to fight back. Though it was in vain, as she was powerless against my new strength. Her pleads slowly became quiet as I greedily indulged her blood. But that was when I heard someone.

"BARRY! STOP"

It was Iris; she was with Cisco, Caitlin, and Wally all of which had a petrified look on their faces.

Caitlin's POV

We saw Barry lift his head off of the poor women's body, blood trickling out of his mouth. The only thing that scared me more was that Barry have fangs where his canines where supposed to be It was horrifying, I knew something was wrong with him. But this, vampires? It did not make any sense. I didn't know what to do but that was when I saw Cisco shoot at blast at Barry pushing him away from the body. If it was under normal circumstances I would be mad at Cisco for hurting Barry but this was different. Barry was a monster that needed to be contained.

"Iris! Call 911 that woman needs help. "I yelled.

Iris snapped out of her petrified state and called for an ambulance. I am personally glad I didn't have to call the police. Like what was I going to say,' this guy that used to be our friend turned into a vampire and is drinking a woman's blood' they would think I was crazy.

"Caitlin he is out cold. Get in the car, Wally can you bring him to STAR labs? We have to put him in the pipeline." Cisco explained as he ran to the car.

Wally nodded in agreement, picked Barry up, and sped to STAR labs. We left Iris behind to deal with the police.

No one's POV

Once they were back at STAR labs they quickly put Barry on the pipeline. Iris came five minutes later telling us that she told the police that the woman was shot.

"But she is alive, right?" Cisco asked uncertainly

"Yeah she is but in critical condition" Iris confirmed. She couldn't believe Barry would do this. It didn't make any sense. She knew Barry was sick about sneezing does not turn someone into a blood sucking vampire.

"Man, what is up with Barry messing up all the time first flashpoint now this." Wally added.

A small sound filled the room as Cisco looked at his computer.

"Guys Barry is waking up"
