[ if wally is being honest, falling out of the sky and finding an inordinate number of murderous plants waiting for him once his boots hit the ground isn't how he anticipated his day to go. it's a far cry from ushering the kids off to school, kissing his wife goodbye before work, and dealing with the occasional crisis that threatens the universe.
so, okay, it's not exactly a new experience for him as it is just thoroughly unexpected.
luckily, it is easy enough to deal with the plants through dodge and distract tactics that only a speedster can accomplish. it's not a method that scales back their number, but using himself as bait is successful enough to allow the surrounding people to escape their impending doom unharmed for the time being.
well, all except a lone figure down the street who is seemingly in the crosshairs of a mountain of a plant.
without thinking if the person even needs his help, wally races off as a red blur in their direction, and just as the plant begins its attack, wally desperately lunges towards its soon to be victim, tackling them out of the way.
the good news is that wally's speeding momentum has carried them far enough away that they aren't in any immediate danger from the plant, but the bad news is the landing is rather rough, though wally takes the brunt of it as he ends up on the ground splayed underneath the person he rescued whether they wanted it or not. ]
Y'know, I think that could have gone a little smoother.
[ ah, good, at least the rough fall hasn't damaged his wonderful sense of humor. ]

I gotta say that was some introduction with the craziness and everything. I don't think it was enough to make my personal top ten list of all time, but that does beg the question.
What is the craziest thing you've had to deal with here that isn't Green Lantern?
