Speed and Ice: His spark

Part 14: Mission

Barry's POV

I walk downstairs from my lab 2 weeks after the breakup and all of a sudden four extra clips for a gun are shoved into my hands. "Do you need these analyzed Captain?" I ask confused. He snorts. "I'm trusting you enough to take you out onto the field kid. So you need extra clips. I know you stay armed at all times anyways. And your jacket has like a thousand hidden pockets. But it will make me feel better. So take them." He says. "Bruh I am 26...." I go to say but he cuts me off grinning. "I know this. But I am your godfather and I worry. Your father has also hounded me about this ever since I told him. You get hurt, I'll be dead. So if you die, expect to see me soon after." He says walking off. "Wow." Eddie says laughing. "What? Jealous I have a better relationship with the captain then you do?" I say smirking. "Oh shut up kid. Leave him alone. I'm sure him being your godfather has its perks." Lindsey says. "No it doesn't. I was left alone with a man who shot me in a jail holding cell over night because he refused to come bail me out of jail till the next morning because he had to much work. Or there is the time you know he shoved me over to a criminal and used me as live bait. That was interesting. Then there is the time I punched someone here in the middle of the precinct and he threw me in a holding cell and arrested me for assault. Or the time he refused to believe me that the old director of the CSI unit would steal all of my work that I done which was his that he made me do. He would sneak into my lab and cross my name out and sign his. And since our names look a lot alike when in signature form and our hand writing was very much alike it was understandable not to notice or believe me seeing as I was just 19 and he had been working with this man for as long as he could remember. Or the time he left me in the middle of nowhere and nearly got me killed." I say. Everyone's mouths are hanging open. "There is tons more. The only time it really comes in handy that he is my godfather is people are afraid to mess with him." I say. I snort as nobody has a reply. We all go over the case and everything. As we go out onto the field here we are looking around and I here a sound of something that sounds like it is powering up. I turn around slowly. I see Leonard Snart standing there holding the gold gun at me. I chuckle nervously. "G-Guys. Guys we have an issue." I say. They all turn around and see what is happening. "You have superspeed!" Joe, Singh, and Eddie exclaim. "it is pointless now. I try to use it he has time to shoot me with ice which will render my speed useless because cold fights off my speed. It can also kill me and I ain't looking to die today." I say. He has this look in his eyes. "You are being forced to do this aren't you?" I ask. "Just shut up Scarlet." He says. I notice his bloodshot eyes and his shaky arm. "But the question is, will he actually hurt the kid." I hear Singh mutter to Joe. "Oh shut up asshole! Now is not the time to use that to advantage!" I yell. Singh takes the moment Lenny is focused on me to wrap his arms around him and pinned him. But the sudden movement caused the cold gun to jerk to hard and malfunction. I yell out in pain when it hits my stomach. I notice as tears pour down Lenny's face and I pry Singh off of him and wrap my arms around him. The only time I have seen him cry like this is when they had Lisa. "We will get her back. I promise." I say. "They threatened to kill her if I didn't get it off of you....." He says. "What off of me?" I say. "The USB...." He says. "Where is she?" I ask. He points shakily to the building behind us. "What is it with criminals and warehouses." I mutter. "Joe call backup." I demand. I help him stand up. "David give me your switch blade." I say grabbing the cold gun from the ground but wincing when I move. "Why." He asks. "Just give me the damn thing." I say. He does and I lay the cold gun on the hood of the car and take some of the parts off and fix it to where it works without the broken parts. "And by doing that, I got it to kick into the factory settings and go to it's backup system so it still works. Now you take this. And this. It is a decoy USB. It will hold them off until we can get up there with backup." I say reaching it to Lenny. I have got to stop calling him that. Even if it is just in my head. "Joe tell em to keep their sirens off!" I call over to joe who gives me a thumbs up. I see the panicked look on Lenny's face. I grab his shoulders. "You got this. This is the one time I am telling you I will keep cops off of your back and as the Flash I won't drop you off at the precinct. Be the cold bitch I know you can be when you want to be. Be cold." I say grinning. "Be cold.... Are you giving me permission..." He says as I turn to walk over to Joe. "Yes I am." I say. "How far out are they?" I ask Joe. "Here." He says as they all pull in. They all walk over. "Okay so I have a plan. Snart you are going to go up there normally like you had been going in and out of the building. Now Singh and Joe will be leading you guys through the front and up the stairs. Len what floor is she on." I ask. "the 18th." He says. "Ok yeah. You guys go in and go up to the top floor. I am gonna go up to the top of the building where I know there is a door up there that I can pick the lock to if it even still stays locked. I will go in and hide. When you guys get up there do not hesitate to come on in. Singh I will fight to keep you all out of trouble for this and seeing as I do work under the president's order I should be able to, but when all of you shoot. Shoot to kill. We have been dealing with this group for 7 years now and I am sick off it." I say putting on of the clips in the gun. "Len you go first. the rest of you wait a minute or two then head up after him. Since the fire escape gave out the last time we were here I have to scale this building. Eddie stay out here until I make it to the top just in case I do fall someone is here to call Caitlin." I say using the serum she gave me to heal up injuries on spot. I back up, run, and leap. I clutch the sides of the building and finally make it to the top. I give Eddie the thumbs up as he chuckles. I run in and once I get to the eighteenth floor I hide behind a post. As I watch the interaction between them all I see Singh at the door. I nod. I glance at Len who knows where I am. We all jump into action. We each take out a few and I leap onto the back of the leader. I have Singh's switchblade held to his throat and hard. it is bringing a little blood but not much. He is like 7'3 while I am 6'2. I have to leap onto him. "Drop the gun. If I press any harder on this knife or just the slightest jerk of my hand causing it to slide just an inch across your throat and it will hit your carotid artery and you'll bleed out if someone doesn't stop the bleeding in 60 seconds. And trust me. None of us will stop the bleeding." I say. He drops the gun to the ground. I hop off of him and just to piss him off I use my FBI badge. "Oh by the look on your face he hates you Allen." Singh says as I place cuffs on him. "You have the right..." I say but he growls and I slap him. "I know my damn rights." He says. 4 of the officers take him out. "Barry..." Len says making me look up. I look over to Lisa. She has the gag out of her mouth now. "They have a bomb ready to go off in 2 minutes." She says. I wrap my arms around her to shield her. "Len freeze the bomb. Now!" I yell. Once he freezes it I cut her loose. I grab it and run it to the middle of fucking nowhere. I run back out of breath having ran it like 200,000 miles away and then running back. "It is in the middle of nowhere in a desert." I say.
