Bartholomew Allen (DCUU)

"My name is Barry Allen and what you're about see is the impossible."

- Barry Allen (The Flash: Rebirth)

Bartholomew "Barry" Allen (born March 13, 1999) is a police scientist that was struck by lightning in his lab. He became a metahuman. He is a member of the Justice League and is currently dating Iris West.

Early life
Barry was born to Nora and Henry Allen on March 13, 1999. In Barry's elementary years, he would get bullied at school and when he was walking from home. His mother took care of him and said that he had a great heart and that a great heart is better than fast legs.

On March 18, 2011, in the middle of the night, Barry awoke to a commotion. He went downstairs and saw that his mother was surrounded by streaks of red and yellow lightning. Barry saw the "Man in Yellow" for a brief moment before getting knocked out by the streak of yellow lightning. The yellow streak carried Barry 20 blocks away.

Half an hour later, Barry woke up to find himself on the grass of a house 20 blocks away. Barry ran to his house in time to see his father get arrested by the police. He went into his house to find William West standing over a body bag with a body in it. Barry approached the body and discovered, much to his horror, it was his mother. Barry always claimed that his father didn't kill his mother but nobody believed him. Fueled by his determination to prove his father's innocence, Barry began studying forensic science in hopes to clear his father's name.

After that, Barry was fostered by Officer West and his daughter, Iris. Barry became best-friends with Iris and went to school together.

High school years
Sometime in 2014, Barry went to high school with Iris and graduated after. He was then accepted at the Central City Police Department to be their CSI.i

Getting his powers
One night while working in his crime lab, Barry got struck by a lightning bolt and gained the ability to think, act, and move at inhuman speeds. He can also vibrate his molecules on a microscopic level.

Dealing with Deadshot
In 2020, Barry was getting used to his powers and decided to use his powers to be a superhero and make a name for himself. He made an red armored suit with wings on the sides of his mask like the Greek god Mercury with a lightning bolt on the chest armor. He called himself the Streak but he said he needed to work on the name. He heard sirens and ran to the Central City Bank in his "prototype" suit. He saw a masked man with wrist shooters who was named Deadshot. Barry engaged in a fight with Deadshot and dodged the bullets but saw a bullet heading towards a female citizen, catching the bullet before it hit the female. After a long fight, the Flash defeated Deadshot and handed him to the police.
