Kid Flash is a young speedster and the leader of Titans East.

History

Joining the Teen Titans

In one version of the Teen Titans origin story, Robin initially reached out to a collection of young heroes in hopes of starting his own super-team. Kid Flash was among the participants and, though the speedster was unimpressed by Robin's leadership skills, auditioned anyway. After the tryouts, Robin announced that the Teen Titans would be comprised of himself, Kid Flash, Aqualad, Speedy, and Bumblebee. However, Robin had proven he was an unfit leader to the other teenagers, and they voted to kick him off his own team, with Kid Flash being elected leader instead.

Robin reconnected with the other four teenagers he kicked out of the auditions and, feeling a sense of comradery having all been rejected from the team, decided to form a team themselves. The five teens broke into Titans Tower (which Robin had built himself and Kid Flash had commandeered in his takeover) and challenged Kid Flash and his team to a competition - winners keeps the tower, losers leave Jump City for good. Kid Flash agreed.

When the competition finally began, Kid Flash announced that each team would try to prove their superiority similarly to the tryouts - through combat, puzzle solving, and speed. The combat challenge, as determined by Kid Flash, would be to defeat his highly-advanced, deadly combat android. With his new robot body, Robin's teammate Cyborg immediately destroyed the combat robot, winning the round for Robin's Titans.

For the problem solving competition, Kid Flash handed Beast Boy a puzzle cube, which blew up in his hands, automatically giving Kid Flash's Titans the win for the round.

The final round - as determined by Kid Flash - was a race around the world, and the speedster challenged Robin. Robin, despite not having powers, was undaunted by the challenge. When the race began, instead of running, Robin ordered his team to rush inside Titans Tower and lock all the doors. However, Kid Flash was too quick, ran around the world, and still managed to get inside before they could they keep him out. Though Robin admitted he should probably accept defeat and concede the tower to the speedster like a gentleman, he instead bashed Kid Flash's knee in with his battle staff and threw him out the window.

Kid Flash, Aqualad, Speedy, and Bumblebee, having been kicked out of Jump City, decided to form their own team on the east coast.
