Authors note: I want to bring Leonard Smart into this book and I do think he'll play a big part.
I groaned as I woke up with a massive headache, what happened last night? I walked over to the bathroom and got into the shower brushing my teeth and then washing my hair.
I think Cisco is into me, his always trying to get my attention, he holds my hand. I think his trying to tell me something.
I blow dried my hair and brushed it. I got changed into my usual work attire. And headed out the door where I found Cisco in his car.
"Thought you wouldn't be up for driving so I thought I'd drive you to work" he smiled.
"I'm not that bad, I only have a headache" I smiled back getting into the car.
"So you finished that extra work last night pretty quickly, huh?" He said suspiciously like he knew I'd lied.
"There was less then I thought, but, one thing I saw that you made is a heat-gun and a freeze-gun, why?" I asked.
"Just in case if a meta ever attacks us when Barry's not around."
"Okay" we say in silence for a while when I heard my phone ringing. I answered. "Hello Cait what's wrong?...... Okay I'll tell him bye" I looked over at him "your guns, there gone"
***********
We raced to the labs to find glass all other the ground. "I thought you said it was impossible to get into?" Caitlin said as she checked the files.
"It is if you don't brake into it" he argued back.
"I'll text Barry, his a forensic he'll know what happend and how to deal with it. Besides I doubt Harrison wants the police involved" I said grabbing my phone off the desk and flipping him a quick text.
A gust of wind came in, it was Barry. "What's going on?" He said walking over to me.
"Break in, missing guns" I said gesturing to a disappointed Cisco, I felt bad for him he had spent weeks on those guns.
"Who did it?" He asked looking at the way the glass was shattered.
"That's why we called you, maybe you could find who did it since you work with the police." Caitlin commented.
I nodded my head in agreement. Caitlin and I had become almost like sisters in the small time we've known each other which was great. She was such a smart woman who I inspire to be like.
"So" I spoke up "where messing with a villian who has a thing for Antarctic temperatures?"
"Yeah I guess you could call him or her captain cold... Oh that's good" Cisco said proud of himself for coming up with the name.
"Don't forget about that heat gun of yours" Caitlin added as if he'd forgotten.
*************
I went to go visit Iris at Jitters, Barry was in his lab running finger print scans trying to match it up to the gun snatcher.
"Iris" I smiled waving at her. She put two coffee mugs on the table and hugged me.
"Lydia? I'm surprised your not in bed drinking glasses of water by the second." She laughed.
"So am I! Its like I never got drunk." I laughed with her.
It was great to catch up with Iris but soon Barry walked through the door making the door bell make a ding noise.
He walked over to the table Iris and I where at. "So I finished running those tests, and we have a match" he smiled proudly.
"What are you two nerds talking about?" Iris interjected.
"Nothing" Barry and I both said nonchalantly. "Just some work stuff" barry finished.
"Okay? Well, coffee anyone?" She asked standing up.
"Yes, thank you" I said as she began to walk away.
Again the door rang as what I thought was a customer coming through. But that ring was followed by shouting. "Hands up!" A man yelled. He wore a snow jacket with fur around the hood and shaded fur, his partner in crime was dirty and scummy looking. They both held guns one with a blue light the other with a orange light.
I looked at Barry as I put my hands behind my head. "Suit up" I whispered quietly. A gust of wind and he was gone.
The man with the snow jacket walked through the cafe until he came across me. "You! Stand up" he pointed his gun at me. I did as he said my hands where shaking and they began to get.cold, the whole room was getting cold.
"Don't hurt her!" Barry yelled as he stood in his Scarlet suit.
"And who are you?" He said as his partner pointed his heat gun at Barry.
Barry didn't answer he ran and took the mans heatwave gun throwing it on the ground, things happened so quickly. The man with the blue gun pulled the trigger and a icy cold blast hit me, not freezing me but knocking me to the ground.
My eyes where tightly closed as I expected to die my hands in front of my face, but instead I had created a wall of ice. "Get the girl" the scummy man demanded.
The scummy man occupied Barry and kept him from saving me. Gloved hands grabbed me by the arm and dragged me out the doors.
I couldn't fight back I was drained, I felt drained. He through me in the back of a truck and shut the metal doors forcefully. I felt warm liquid run down the side of my face, blood.
The truck started to move, I hit my head on the side of the truck wall and I blacked out.....
Authors note: So this was a quick chap I wrote at night so I hope you enjoyed.
