Unique Gamers Travels-Chapter 209 - 205: Central City
Chapter 209 - 205: Central City
[3rd POV]
Walking through the streets of the large city known as "Central City" the home of the Flash, and various villains. It was also one of the most important places in this multiverse, where a lot of huge events go down, like the Particle Accelerator explosion that gave many different metahumans their powers.
She had already created a few clones and sent them off to get a general feel of the area, with even more of them going off to learn how to use her new divinities, training them to mastery, so that she can properly utilize them in the future. Her swordsmanship divinity wouldn't really need training, as it was the techniques themselves that she needed to master, which is exactly what her clones were off doing, mastering as many swordsmanship techniques as they could.
She planned on staying in this universe and training Barry for a bit, probably for most of Season 3, aka for when Savitar was around, and then she would return home to the girls and her business. She also planned on potentially visiting Oliver every once in a while and seeing what the man is up to, as he's probably the only person that didn't really need any of her training. The most he'd need was a better suit and potentially some upgrades to his tech, which she planned on having Barry take down there one of these days.
'Hmm, timeline wise it looks like I've arrived in between episodes 9 and 10. 9 was when they found out Julian is Alchemy, the guy who worshipped Savitar. While 10 is with the Flash Museum opening, Wally proving himself, and some other crap' Talia thought, remembering the general timeline of this show.
Flexing her power, she sent off another clone to go and buy her a nice apartment, while also giving herself a false identity, and everything else she would need in this world, to be able to live somewhat comfortably. The Waverider had been somewhat comfortable, but was severely lacking in certain areas, and she planned on buying an apartment and doing what she did to her complex in Earth 38 to this one.
Earth 1 would eventually become a more important place that she would have to visit more and more often in the future, thanks to several events that would go down, so, having some sort of home here would be for the best. A home that was impenetrable even to the likes of a Speedster, would be for the best.
Continuing to walk through the streets of Central City, Talia eventually found herself in front of her target location. Star Labs, the place that Barry was based out of, and where she should find him about now. She's been there only once before during the Invasion, but that was only for like a couple of hours or so, so not long at all.
Walking through the gates, she smiled as she walked through the doors into the museum that was getting built by H.R. The museum itself was pretty neat, and even had an AI Cisco, which...didn't exactly work, but it was still pretty neat.
Making her way through the halls of Star Labs, she soon walked into the main mission area of the Labs, where Barry's suit was kept on it's mannequin, where a LOT of the show took place, and where Cisco was currently sat, typing away at his computer, looking more into Savitar, as Barry was walking around the main area.
"Man, you guys really need to work on your security" Talia said, as she genuinely was unimpressed. The security was...lacking, very lacking. She was pretty sure she could have entered just normally, even without using powers, something that needed to be changed immediately, especially with some of the future events that would go down thanks to that same lack of security.
Hearing the voice behind him, Cisco jumped in freight, as everyone turned "Jesus, don't do that!" Cisco yelled, breathing out a sigh of relief as he found Talia standing there, still terrified from being scared.
"Sorry sorry, but seriously, the security here is terrible" Talia said, walking past the man as she glanced around.
"What're you doing here?" Joe asked, as Talia looked to him before smiling.
"I've already given the Legends the mentoring they needed, and they'll now be dealing with their future themselves, hopefully better than they would have before. Now I'm here to teach Barry, and hopefully he can use that speed of his properly" Talia replied, as Iris couldn't help but comment.
"And what would you know about how to use the speed force?" Iris asked, as Talia raised an eyebrow, understanding that Barry hadn't told them about her having the speed force, probably out of respect to her own privacy, which she wound to be rather nice of him, unneeded, but nice.
In response, Talia just slowly smiled, as she blurred, disappearing in a burst of Golden and Black lightning, moving at speeds beyond anything any of them had seen, only to reappear a moment later, a latte in her hand.
"Latte? Got it from this nice little French Bistro down in France" Talia asked, smirking at the wide eyed look she got from Joe, Iris, H.R, and Wally. Caitlin and Cisco had been at the afterparty, so they knew about it, while Iris had stayed back in Central City instead of being there like in canon, so she had no idea.
"I-How?" Iris asked, as Talia smiled.
"There's a reason why I said I can mentor Barry, Iris. I am far faster than he is, and I've got a deeper connection to it than anyone else in the multiverse. Meaning, I know more about it than any other, so, I can teach him more. That, and having seen a few videos of your fights, you are...awful at it, like...truly awful" Talia replied, as she looked at Barry who looked a little insulted.
"What makes me so bad?"
"You're lack of using the speed force to subdue criminals? You could use the speed force to instantly take down dozens of criminals in less than a second, and yet, for some reason, you go at normal speeds when punching them or fighting them, instead of just...going at superspeed and slapping some meta dampening cuffs or normal handcuffs on them" Talia responded with a deadpan, as Barry went silent.
"Look, I understand that you think you're doing well with the speed force, which you are...to an extent, but you seriously need help in dealing with criminals, and there are other techniques you haven't learned yet, or have yet to even develop to a truly powerful extent" Tallia continued, with Barry sighing.
"Alright, I'll let you teach me. I-I'm just a bit...frazzled with all this stuff with Savitar, which I'm sure you know about because it seems like you know about everything" Barry said, as Talia nodded.
"I know of him. Supposed God of Motion, "Fastest Speedster" a bunch of other BS titles that are not true. Sure he's pretty fast, but the fastest? Not even close. And "God of Motion"? If he was the God of Motion, he'd be able to just stop someone from moving with a snap of his finger" Talia replied, scoffing at the titles.
She was the only God of "Motion" here, but more so Movement, which was...basically the same thing, or very close to it. And she, as far as she knew, was the fastest speedster there was, being able to go many many times the speed of light.
"Do you know anything else about him? Who he is? Why he's here? How to defeat him?" Joe asked, as Talia smiled.
"I can tell you that you should keep looking into his connection to the Speed Force, and that throwing the Philosopher's stone into the speed force isn't going to do anything to stop him. You should also remember what he told you when you hooked Julian up" Talia said simply, as they frowned.
"So you know who he is?"
"I know that if I was to tell you, it would have detrimental consequences on the timeline, and would probably piss off the Speed Force. There are things called "Fixed Points" points in time that HAVE to happen, as they are supremely important events in history. And trust me, you have a lot of these points, Savitar being one of them" Talia replied simply, as they sighed in understanding. Talia made it pretty clear that it was important that this happened, and she couldn't change it, so they would simply have to trust her.
Seeing that the questions were over with, Talia smiled creepily and spoke.
"Now...shall we get started with your training?"
