Prompt: Caitlin is tracking a piece of stolen technology from star labs only to find out that the thief removed the tracker and slipped it in a strangers pocket. This turns out to be a photographer for a lingerie shoot and Caitlin is mistaken as one of the models.
Today was one of the rare free days at Star Labs where everyone did whatever they wanted to do. Barry Allen and Iris West were at their apartment, Cisco Ramon was at the police station convincing Captain Joe West to give him a badge, and Ralph Dibney was on a date at Jitters with a girl he met on Tinder. This just leaves the new Harrison Wells and Caitlin Snow at Star Labs. They were trying to work to increase the security at Star Labs since random villains come from literally out of no where.
"Wells it only took 7 months but I finally finished the high security software. Let's just say, no one will be seeing any villian jump scares ever again." Caitlin proudly stated, waving her little computer chip in the air.
"Mrs. Snow let's test out your beautiful invention then." The new Harrison Wells stated in his English accent.
"First you need to turn off the regular security we have around here. The security I created will activate once I put the computer chip in." Caitlin stated. Wells turned a switched off and within 2 minutes, the regular security completely shut down. Then, Caitlin inserted her computer chip in and the high security software was activated.
"And that's how you get it it doneee!" Caitlin smirked, earning a high five from Wells.
Little did they know... a criminal had gotten into Star Labs during those two minutes of the regular security shutting down. The criminal was named Leonard Snart and he had stolen a freeze gun for specific activities he had in mind.
Caitlin and Wells were testing out the cool new features embedded within the software, looking for any bugs. After scanning the software for 2 hours, they found no bugs or viruses contained within it.
"Mrs. Snow, that calls for ice cream! Did your frosty friend come back to help us make ice cream?" Wells questioned as he grabbed the sundae cups and spoons from the drawers.
"No, no matter how hard I try she just won't come back. Although, we have a freeze gun in the basement. I'll go get that!" Caitlin stated and made her way towards the basement. When she made her way to the basement, she saw objects that were originally placed on the shelf scattered on the floor. To her surprise, the freeze gun had disappeared. This was the weapon that was supposed to be kept under the highest amount of security.
"WELLS, THE FREEZE GUN IS GONE! SOMEONE STOLE IT, IT'S GONE!" Caitlin yelled sprinting upstairs. When she made it to the floor, she was completely out of breath from shouting about the freeze gun.
"Mrs. Snow calm down. The gun must have only been stolen couple hours ago. When ever any of our weapons are messed with we get an emergency alert. Also, you just installed a better security system which just traps the theft there." Wells explained, in an attempt to calm Caitlin down.
"Exactly! We would have gotten an alert about this or the theft would have already been caught. Why did we just find out about this now?" Caitlin panicked. Then it hit both of them. They looked at each other, slowly regretting all of their decisions.
"The two minutes..." They softly whispered at the same time.
Caitlin hurried to her computer and searched for where the freeze gun was. She had tagged all the important weapons in the lab, this made it incredibly easy when the team had to catch robbers who occasionally stole stuff from the lab.
"Okay... this shows that the person who has the gun is only like 10 minutes away. They are on a board walk, it looks like they stopped for fries or something. Wells, I'm going to leave the tracking to you. You are going to guide me on the coms and tell me which path to take." Caitlin hurriedly spoke as she put on her big black coat.
"Wait aren't we going to contact the rest of the team?" Wells questioned but Caitlin shook her head.
"It is my fault that we are in this situation so I'm going to handle it. If I need the rest of the team, I'll just press the emergency button on my phone." Caitlin smiled and took off without much further ado.
Caitlin sped in her car and saw that the criminal she was tracking didn't even move. Why would he be taking a stop at the board walk when he had a freeze gun? Caitlin thought to herself. But she shook off that thought as she got closer and closer to the location. When Caitlin reached the board walk, she parked her car off to the side and walked to the destined place on her GPS. When Caitlin reached the person she was tracking she looked up and spotted a guy. This guy appeared to be in his early twenties, he had a camera wrapped around his neck, and girls in the tiniest of clothing were posing while he was taking pictures of them.
"Umm... excuse me?" Caitlin asked awkwardly, trying to tap on his shoulder to get his attention.
"Heyy girl you must be here for the lingerie shoot. Just take off what you are wearing and I will snap some pictures." He smirked as the other girls looked at Caitlin in jealousy for receiving more attention than them.
"No, no I am not here for the lingerie shoot. I am here because you have my freeze gun which is really rude to steal. I would like it back!" Caitlin exclaimed, turning really red from being mistaken as a lingerie model.
"A freeze gun? Oh my, are you an Elsa want to be or something? Just come and be in the shoot with the rest of the girls, it is pretty obvious you like me." The guy laughed with literal tears coming out of his eyes.
"I don't like you I'm serious!" Caitlin shouted, shoving the overconfident photographer. This caused something to fall out of his pocket.
Caitlin then looked on the floor, of course. The real criminal found the tracker in the freeze gun and implanted it in someone else pocket. Well played. Now she has to tell the rest of the team who will yell at her for keeping a big deal like this a secret.
"If you supposedly don't like me, which I know you do... you should still join the shoot. You have the most perfect body and oh god how I want to-." The photographer lustfully started babbling, touching Caitlin's waist.
"No you pervert, you only attract disgusting desperate girls not me. Try again with some other girl you spot at the board walk." Caitlin scoffed, destroying the tracking device with her heel and turning it to walk towards the car.
