Once Mick arrived at the Snart's. He did his best to blend in, so nobody could see him. Unfortunately before Mick left. He didn't think through about bringing equipment which would allow him to hear what was being said. Mick got sidetracked from Ray. "Damn it." He grumbled, realizing this wasn't planned good enough ahead. One of the downsides to Mick being so hot headed. He ended up getting himself stuck in sticky situations. Unlike Leonard, who was always calm, and always had plans. And made sure everything was set before going into action. Mick acted on a whim. It had been why he and Leo worked so well together. Mick thought he should've listened to Ray a little better. But it was hard for him to do. The only person who could get Mick to do anything, like be patient.. Was Snart.
For now, Mick decided it was best to wait. As things seemed normal for the time being. He could see some movement from the windows. Though the curtains were closed, Mick could definitely point out his partner. He also happened to notice a few other figures standing nearby. And he very well knew those weren't Lisa's, Abby's or Sara's. This sent a red flag. It could be Sara and Leo were having company. But something told Mick that wasn't it. Since he couldn't hear what they were saying, Mick decided to take a risk. Opening the door, he began stepping out of the car to get closer. Some movement nearby stopped him. Not seeing who the person was at first, Mick grew very nervous he'd gotten caught. "Hey Mick!" Mick groaned hearing the familiar voice behind him. Ray had waited behind the vehicle. Listening in, waiting for the right moment to reveal himself.
"Don't you know you're not supposed to sneak up on someone in a stake out? I could've smoked you." Mick hissed. "What are you doing here Palmer?" Ray rolled his eyes at the bad pun. "Now is that anyway you should treat someone who's come to help?" Ray asked in a somewhat sarcastic tone. "I already told you. I don't need help. Head back to the ship." Mick ordered. Raymond raised an eye at his teammate's words. "Is that so? That's too bad, because I have these.." He looked smug as he held up the device that would help Mick to hear what was going on.
"Still don't think you need help?" Ray asked. Mick glared at the other before snatching the device out of Ray's hands. "Give me those." He grumbled. "Get in the car before we're seen." Mick continued ordering around as he opened the door and hopped back inside the vehicle. Setting up the device so they could listen in on the conversation. Ray wandered around to the passenger side getting in. "Are you sure this.." Ray began asking until Mick cut him off, when the transmitter started working. And they could hear voices coming through the speakers.
"Make sure Sara doesn't catch you. She and the rest of the team will annoyingly be right on your ass soon as you set your plan into motion. You don't want Sara spotting you and messing up everything." The one man's voice warned. Leonard gave the man a glare. "You don't need to tell me that Sid.." He responded in a cool tone.
Mick glanced over at Ray narrowing his eyes. "Who the hell is Sid?" He muttered. Ray looked back at Mick, giving a shrug. "Beats me.." Was all he responded before the men grew silent. Both of them continued listening. Alright Snart.. Exactly what are you upto? "I'll be very careful. I'm always careful." Snart began speaking. "Sara nor the others will have a chance in seeing me. I'm very cautious. I can sense the youngest is starting to catch on.. So I've become even more careful.."
At the mention of Lisa, this caught Mick's attention. His head snapped up, glancing at Ray. Then looked towards the window watching the figures. His heart raced as he heard Lisa's name. Leonard had revealed it to the other men. The other men Mick had no idea who they were. Mick didn't like that. He had no clue who these men were... How they operated.. Or how his partner may have met them. He's not your partner. He's his doppleganger. Mick reminded himself. This information wasn't known for certain until tonight. Tonight confirmed the doppleganger theory was correct. Mick was very certain now, that was the answer. There was no other option. Mick knew his real partner couldn't be doing any of this. Snart wouldn't risk losing his family, or put them in danger. He loved them too much. So this had to be a different version of Leonard. Now all Mick needed to do.. Was find where the dopplegnager was keeping his real partner.. And stop the doppleganger.
"If I have to. We have this device that will swipe memories." Leo smirked holding up the handy object, showing his partners. "This is what I use on my doppleganger. I swipe his memory of ever meeting me, before returning him to his wife. So he doesn't go spilling the beans. I don't think I would ever need it. Because he seems like the type that will do anything to keep his family safe." The smirk stayed on Snart's face as he explained. "Though, I still use it, as extra precaution. For one can never be too sure.."
"Son of a bitch!" Mick growled. It was one thing going after his partner in crime. Because Leo could handle himself. Well.... Most of the time. But it was another thing going after Lisa, Abby or Sara. Mick went to open the door so he could get out. Soon as he leaned forward, he felt Ray grab his arm, stopping him. Mick glanced over at the other. Giving him a look that could kill. "Let me go.. Right now.." He said in a low tone.
"Mick wait.. Don't you think you should plan before barging in there? You don't know what you're up against. And you don't have any help." Ray started. Mick cut him off. "Wrong.. I do have help. Isn't this why you came in the first place? So you could help me? I'm not letting them mess with Lisa or hurt her. I'm doing this with or without your help. And I know in the end you don't want to leave me going out on the field alone. You know you're going to come with in the end anyways. Whether you think it a good idea or not. So let's get on with it already. Stop stalling and being a pansy haircut and lets go.." Ray sighed watching as Mick opened the door, grabbing his heat gun and getting out of the car. He then began walking towards the house, being as cautious as he could. So others couldn't see him. Ducking from the window's view as he approached the house, leaning his back against the wall. Attempting best he could to peek through the curtains, to see what he could see.
Ray opened the door getting out of the car, following Mick. He stopped mid step when he was halfway to the house. Hearing the door opening. Leonard and his gang were coming out. Ray's heart pounded, glancing around for a spot to hide. Unfortunately he didn't bring his suit so he could shrink. Mick watched nervously. Ray was going to get caught and he'd be dead when they saw him.
As the door opened, Ray managed to make a run for it and dive in a group of nearby trees. Right now, Leonard was too busy visiting with his guys to notice Mick. Mick should've taken that opportunity for escaping as well. What kept him standing his ground with what he wanted to do next. Was the fact that Leo and his buddies threatened Lisa. He wasn't going to take that lightly.
Waiting a few moments first, Mick took a few slow steps forward so he was in Snart's site. Standing in front of him. A smirk crossed his face seeing the shocked look of his partner's doppleganger. "Bet you weren't expecting me were you Snart? Tell me.. What the hell do you want with Sara. And where are you keeping my partner?"
