I had to act fast and hard, the girl wasn't going to escape under any circumstances. If I knocked on the door, I might not get an answer, and even if I did, it might be her boyfriend. I don't need him, and using him as a hostage is such a method, she could escape or things could get out of hand. In a pinch, I'd do that, but I had a different plan now....
Since they were busy doing something rather busy right now, they were unlikely to pay attention to their surroundings. So I could pick the lock and get in, the problem was that I wasn't very experienced at picking locks. I hadn't done it much in the past, I had only taken a basic course as well as basic combat training. Well, the lock seems to be very ordinary, so it shouldn't be a problem, and with my hearing it might not be hard.
Making a lock pick out of wire, I started picking the lock.
*♪ Click ♪ ♪ Click ♪ ♪ Click ♪
Hmm, ready... Slowly opening the door, I began to slowly make my way into the room.
I caught these two right in the middle of coitus.... The man's back was turned to me, so I pulled out my stun gun and fired.
*♪ Whoo-hoo ♪ ♪ Bzz-z-z ♪
The electricity went through the two men and they didn't even have time to cry out, the current was enough to knock both of them out without a problem.
Pulling the naked man away from the naked girl, I taped her eyes shut and put a bag over her head. She won't need clothes, I guess.... Well, there was no time to dress her, so I threw her on my shoulder and started to carry her away.
The deed was done, the girl was captured without any trouble. The attack was unexpected and she offered no resistance.
I brought her to the base and tied her to the operating table, taped her eyes shut with duct tape and additionally put a tight blindfold over her eyes. I guess now she can't see anything and she can't escape. It was good that she was naked, so it would be easier to work with her.
After all this, I put on an apron and gloves, as well as a special protective mask to keep the blood out of my eyes. Now it was time to get started...
As I was about to start, I suddenly remembered something. As far as I remembered, the girl is innocent, she didn't kill others, so she can be considered an innocent person.... Hmm, that's not good, am I really willing to hurt innocent people for power? Yeah, I didn't think of that before, it was too late for my conscience to kick in.... But I can't let her go, can I? How can I give up such a useful power?
Argh... What am I supposed to do?
*♪ Tinkle! ♪
I was distracted from my thoughts by a signal. That's what usually happens when a particle gas pedal opens. I had installed a recognition program, so I could always know when the gas pedal opened. I walked over to the cameras and looked to see who it could be....
Well, no wonder, it's already daylight, Cisco is chatting with the Blower, he'll probably be releasing it soon...
I looked at the girl at the operating table and sighed:
«I'm sorry, but I've got some business to take care of, I'll finish with you later. - Then I went over to her and gave her a dose of sedative. That should be enough for a few hours, and then I'll be back. I could keep her eyes open for a while, since I'd try to keep her unconscious, but it wouldn't hurt to have insurance, because who knows if those meths are going to do anything.
Having changed clothes and gear again, I set off towards Star Labs, there should be plenty of time....

I arrived just in time, as Dudochnik was showing Ramon the silhouette at the confluence of Stein and Raymond. Cisco hadn't figured out what was going on yet, but that was good for me, so I waited for the right moment to attack.
* Bang * * Bang *
As soon as a fight broke out between the couple, I pulled out my stun gun and started moving slowly. Ramon used the remote to control the Strangler's hearing aid and hit him in the brain. At that point, I fired a shot...
*♪ Bzz-z-z ♪
Ramon fidgeted for a moment and then passed out, unable to see who was attacking him. I also had the foresight to temporarily disable the cameras, so I shouldn't be suspected. Taking the remote control from Cisco's hands, I walked over to Hartley and said:
«You should get some sleep too...
«Who t- - The guy didn't get a chance to finish, because I injected him with a sleeping pill. He passed out, and then I put him on my shoulder and carried him to the truck.

There were two people tied to the operating table in front of me, both unconscious. The first was a girl who could teleport to places she could see, her name was Shauna Baez, I call her Peekaboo. Her crimes weren't too bad, petty hooliganism, theft and fighting, nothing serious. Nothing I could kill her for, anyway.
The other was a man named Hartley Rathaway, his nickname was the Blower. Skills weren't particularly good, didn't make up for the problems. Sensitive hearing, able to pick up radio waves. Based on this, he can understand the purity of certain devices and disable them. He also has a unique piece of equipment, the Ultrasonic Gloves. They allow him to concentrate his abilities and create vibrations capable of destroying entire buildings. In general, thanks to his brains, the guy could have achieved a lot, if not for his stupid revenge....
The guy wasn't a particularly bad person either, he didn't kill or rob, there was only one crime, and it could be written off as revenge. Anyway, he was an innocent man, too....
And here we come to the main question, what should I do with them? One part of me wants to let them go and spare them, and the other part wants to become stronger and not be in their shoes in the future.
Eh, that hunger changed me... People have become food to me, and meta-humans are like vitamins that will make me better. I used to justify my actions by ridding the world of garbage, but now... I just can't give up on these two, I'm not human anymore and if I show humanity now, it could cost me dearly. In the future there will be a lot of events that can harm not only me, but also humanity. Without humans, I can't survive, they're my food after all, so it's only reasonable to protect them.... Idiot Barry, if he had been a little more ruthless, a lot of people wouldn't have gotten hurt and the flashpoint wouldn't have happened. But it's bound to happen and I need to be ready for it. But Flashpoint is just the beginning, let's not forget Crisis and all the other stuff that hasn't happened yet. There's been so much crap in the comics that hasn't even happened a tenth of it in this world yet.
Yeah, without power, I'd be nothing and I couldn't protect my food, I wasn't going to rely on Barry, I had to take matters into my own hands. I'm a predator now, so I don't have time to think about morality and humanity, I just have to-- Eat them.
