The Pain and the Pleasure-Leonard Snart

He's back...

"Anger, hate, aggression." Wells wheeled into the cortex.

"A jedi craves not these things." Both Cisco and I said, pretending to be Yoda.

"No one is feeling that quote?" I asked as Barry rolled his eyes. "Hey, while you're back there try to find your brain." I added.

"Everyone in the bank went total savage for, like, five minutes. And they were fine again." Barry told us.

"Anger can be a powerful emotion." Wells pointed out. "If this meta human can engender irrational feelings over anger in his victims, he can do a lot of damage."

"Detective West helped get a copy of the CAT scans the hospital did on everyone at the bank." Caitlin plugged a USB into the computer. "Take a look." She uploaded the scans to the TV.

"Well, look at this." Wells observed the scans closely. "The emotion centers of the brains are still showing signs of being overwhelmed."

"Particularly the area that controls executive function." Caitlin added. "That's the part of the brain that stops people from doing whatever random and potentially destructive thing that pops into their head."

"How do you think the meta does it to them?" I asked them.

"That's the half a million dollar question." Caitlin told me.

"Hey, if you guys figure it out, just give me a call, okay?" Barry stared at his phone mesmerized. 

"Is the flash off to another secret rendezvous with Iris?" Caitlin asked.

I sighed. "Before you go, we need to talk all of us." Everyone turned their attention to me. "At the station the other night, Tockman took Iris and I outside Barry's lab to kill us. He fired the gun and I knocked him out. But, I had to use my speed. Iris knows I'm Velocity."

"What?" They all said at once.

"Miss Allen, need I remind you of our need to keep this operation a secret." Wells started.

"Seriously Becca, what about Joe?" Barry asked.

"Ideally, Joe never finds out."

"What about Barry?" Cisco asked. "Does Iris know about him too?"

"No. First thing I told her was that I wouldn't give her ideas for her story, unlike others." I eyed Barry. "She knows. That I'm Velocity. That's all." I reassured them all.

"Barry, you there?" I asked him.

"What?" He asked coldly with a distorted voice.

"The police got a ping from the tracer hidden in the stolen cash. SWAT team's closing in on the 1600 block of pass. I'm on my way now."

Gun shots rippled from the gun that one of the members of the SWAT team just fired. Barry and I got everyone out of the way and the bullets hit the wall behind us. The man cocked his gun again, but an two arrows came flying in, hitting him twice in the chest. Barry and I got up smiling at the hooded figure in the shadows. It was Oliver. 

"Nice masks." He complimented us.
