## Background

Wally West's journey into the world of superheroism began when he was taken under the wing of Barry Allen, the Flash. Barry, impressed by Wally's determination and courage, decided to share the secrets of the Speed Force with him. Wally, enthusiastic and eager to make a difference, embraced his mentor's teachings and became the speedster known as Kid Flash.
During his time as Kid Flash, Wally faced a myriad of challenges, from battling speedster villains to saving Central City from various threats. His experiences alongside Barry not only honed his speedster abilities but also instilled in him a profound sense of responsibility. Wally's connection with Barry went beyond mentorship; it was a bond forged in the crucible of heroism.
As Wally transitioned from being Kid Flash to his own superhero identity and moving to Jump City, he carried the legacy of the Flash with him. The red costume and lightning emblem became symbols not just of speed but of hope and heroism. Wally's journey was not without its setbacks and sacrifices, but each trial only solidified his commitment to protecting others.
While Wally operated independently, he maintained close ties with the superhero community, occasionally teaming up with other heroes for major threats. His solo adventures and collaborations with fellow speedsters contributed to his growth as a hero and the development of his unique approach to using the Speed Force.

## Abilities

First of all, despite having the potential to be the fasted Metahuman to ever exist, Kid Flash counts as a Metahuman of godly power.
The source of all of Kid Flash's powers comes from an ancient force known as the Speed Force. The Speed Force governs all motion in the universe, and all speedsters draw their power from it. Every one of Kid Flash's abilities comes from the Speed Force.
Perhaps the most obvious power that Kid Flash has in his arsenal, it grants him many interesting abilities. By harnessing the speed force more and more, Wallace's speed will become shockingly infinite, and that is what makes him truly live up to his name being the fastest boy alive. Some of the abilities Kid Flash has displayed are:
Creating small tornadoes which are strong enough to lift humans up.
Vibration of his own body molecules to pass through solid objects.
Creating high frictions hot enough to cause burns, which comes useful at times whenever somebody gets a hold of him.
At one point, Kid Flash caused a small earthquake of some sort due to high-velocity impacts with his hands supplemented by his speed.
Kid Flash can use his super speed to propel himself into the air, allowing him to (briefly) fly.
Kid Flash can run at an undetermined amount of time and is very sturdy against punishment, as he has been shown crashing into a wall, being electrocuted and receiving blows while recovering rather quickly.
Kid Flash's mental abilities are also hyper-accelerated, simple computations can be done at lightning speeds and can devise strategies and solutions to problems when fighting villains in no time at all.
He is skilled at hand-to-hand combat.
Due to his super-fast metabolism, Kid Flash can heal at an extremely accelerated rate, and can also speed up the healing process of other people's wounds.
Just as Kid Flash can vibrate his molecules enough to phase through solid matter, he can also make his molecules become tightly packed together, making his skin harder and denser than steel and practically invulnerable.
Kinetic Energy Manipulation: Kid Flash can control the vibrations of objects at a molecular level, allowing him to make any object he comes into contact with explode, as well as granting him several other abilities.
Due to his connection with the Speed Force, not only can Kid Flash control and generate lightning and electricity, but he can also shoot it out of his hands as bolts and shock people.
An apparent drawback to Kid Flash's super-speed ability is that he needs to rest and consume
