Absolute Zero

Chapter 16

"So we just need to find this Martin Stein guy now?" I asked her as we walked to her car.

"Exactly." We got to her car when suddenly the door to her car froze.

"You have got to be kidding me." I whispered and turned around to see Leonard and who I assumed was, as Joe called him, his pyro pal.

"Car trouble?" He asked and they came closer to us. I went to punch Leonard but he caught my arm. "I wouldn't." Then I heard Caitlin scream and saw his friend had her and was walking away with her. I turned back to Leonard.

"Let her go."

"Can't do that. She works with the Flash and the blonde." He grabbed my arm tighter and started pulling me towards a car. 

"She's my friend. I work with the Flash I'm all you need so let her go."

"Behave and she'll be just fine." We got to the car and I saw his friend in the driver seat, but no Caitlin. "She's in the trunk relax." Leonard pushed me into the back seat and threw me a scarf. "Cover your eyes. Mick'll be sure you can't see anything." I did as he said and I heard the driver door close and soon we were driving.

~o~

When we got to where ever we were going I was brought into a small room and the scarf was removed from my eyes. I looked around and I didn't see Caitlin. The place looked like it was a bed room of sorts.

"Where is she?" I went to push past him but he caught my arms. I was mad I knew my hands were cold. "Don't touch me!" I yelled and ripped my arms out of his grasp.

"She's fine. Did i nick you with the blast? You're awful cold."

"I'm fine. I told you to stay away from me."

"And I will. You weren't supposed to be there."

"I wasn't supposed to be on the train either remember?"

"Becca, I'm not going to let you get hurt. Your friend either."

"Not helping." 

I heard his friend, Mick, yell for him and left. I went to the door to find it locked. I grabbed the lock until it froze and broke. Once out of the room I quietly looked around for Caitlin. Then I saw her and Mick. He was tying her to a chair and messing with a lighter. Awesome, fire. I grabbed a pole and slowly walked over behind him.

"I wonder what the Flash will reveal, when I burn his suit off." I went to hit him but he spun around and grabbed the pole. "You again."

"Do whatever you want to me." I started. "But leave her, and the Flash, alone."

"Ah, okay." He took the pole from my hands and threw it. "You and this Flash must be close if you're willing to die for him."

"Something like that." I mumbled. He picked up his gun and it worried me.

"You want me to show you, who you really are? That'd be fun." He started walking towards me with the gun, causing me to step back. "Show you... Who you really, are."

"Mick." I've never been so happy to hear that voice. "Time to go." Leonard said and grabbed my arm, dragging me with him.

"What about Caitlin?" I asked trying to get my arm free.

"Like I said, behave and she'll be fine." He said and shoved me into the car. 

It was dark when they sat in the front, putting their goggles on and stepping out. He came around and opened the door to the backseat.

"Get out. Go." Leonard said.

"What? I thought she was leverage?" Mick asked.

"She's not. She's someone who is the wrong place, at the wrong time."
