“All my life, I’ve wanted to do more… be more. And now I am. And the first chance I get to help someone, I screw up. What if Wells is right? What if I’m not a hero. What if I’m some guy who was struck by lightning?”
make me choose: vigilantes asked — barry allen
or cisco ramonMy name is Barry Allen, and I am the fastest man alive. To the outside world, I’m an ordinary forensic scientist, but secretly, with the help of my friends at S.T.A.R. Labs, I fight crime and find other meta-humans like me. I hunted the man who killed my mother, but in doing so, I opened up our world to new threats. And I am the only one fast enough to stop them. I am … The Flash!
Zoom, Jay’s death… It’s all because of me, but I own those choices. We’re the ones who opened the door to Earth-2. We’re the ones who brought Zoom here, but we are also the ones who are gonna stop him.

“I love being The Flash. I love everything about it. The feeling of running hundreds of miles per hour. Wind and power just rushing past my face. Being able to save people. I’m not sure I can’t live without it.”
