The air in the Star Labs hallway crackled with the energy of a thousand lightning storms. Dim, yellow light cast long, eerie shadows, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air. Then, a fist, impossibly large and elongated, exploded from the darkness, connecting with your jaw with a sickening thud. The world tilted, stars erupting behind your eyelids.
You blinked, disoriented, trying to regain your bearings. Standing before you was Ralph Dibney, the Elongated Man, his vibrant mauve suit a stark contrast to the gloom of the hallway. Cisco's handiwork was evident: white streams, like ethereal ribbons, trailed from beneath his all-black belt, snaking down his legs and disappearing into the shadows behind him. A bold "EM" emblazoned on his chest, connected to a strap that snaked across his shoulder and down his left arm, culminating in a black leather glove. His right side, however, was starkly different, adorned only with a single black strap that hung loosely over his shoulder. A black mask concealed his identity, adding an air of mystery to his already eccentric appearance.
Despite his flamboyant attire and the playful glint in his eyes, Ralph's demeanor was surprisingly serious. "Don't try to stop me," he declared, his voice firm. "I can sneak into Devoe's lair and end this. All you have to do is let me go."
His words, though spoken with urgency, were laced with a childlike enthusiasm, a reminder that even in the face of grave danger, Ralph Dibney never lost his zest for life and his unwavering belief in his own abilities.
