"This is bad everyone." Cooper said, going to his laptop and waking it. "That imposter now knows every little thing about us to use against us."
"Now hold on." Holley said. "How do we know if they even looked at those files? Do they show on screen?"
Cooper picked up the computer and faced it towards everyone silently. Of course, the screen showed Finn's full name with other information listed below.
"Oh..." Holley glanced out the window.
"Well, the good news, is that he didn't escape yet! I mean, that information could be leaked to far worse people by now." Sid said, fully understanding how stressed Cooper must be feeling at that moment.
"And," Finn added. "Once the building is on lock down, everything goes down with it, correct? Including the signal for radio outside?"
"Yes, yes you are correct." Cooper sighed. "He wouldn't be able to contact outside, it gets shielded. We must find him immediately."
The agents left Cooper's office only until Cooper packed up his laptop and brought it with in a bag.
"I'm going to leave behind cameras in some areas we look." Finn said as they stopped just outside Cooper's office.
"Great idea." Cooper nodded. Finn dropped a small metal ball just outside the office and a small camera emerged from it.
"The cameras will let us know if it catches any movement." Finn said and they began down the hallway silently, weapons ahead of them.
The walk through the building was quiet and dreadful. Siddeley became jumpy at the smallest of noises, and would always jump every time Finn would let a camera drop to the floor.
"It's very weird how the camera's haven't picked up anything yet." Finn whispered to Cooper. "He must be hiding down low somewhere."
"I am not canceling the lock down until we find him." Cooper said. "I cannot risk the other agents getting in danger. However, I feel as if splitting up into pairs would be a little more efficient."
"I agree." Holley said. "I think it would be best for Siddeley to go with Cooper."
"I don't care who I go with, I just wanna find this guy." Sid muttered under his breath.
"Just make sure to continue to place cameras." Finn said. "If anything, we can try to lure him out in a certain area." The two pairs split up, each going down the opposite way of the long hallway. Finn placed cameras by simulator rooms they didn't check and Cooper placed cameras down hallways they didn't go down. Siddeley kept close to Cooper, shining his pistol light out in front constantly, every now and then spinning around behind them.
An hour or two seemed to pass for Finn as he and Holley both entered the hangar.
"It's going to take forever to check all the aircrafts." Holley breathed.
"Maybe we can try luring him out, if he is in here." Finn whispered. "Follow me." Holley followed Finn to the center of the hangar where aircrafts usually exit through the ceiling.
"Cooper, where are you located right now?" Finn whispered into his radio.
"Siddeley and I are just past the cafeteria." Cooper responded.
"We are in the hangar. I am going to state your location and leave to see if we can catch the imposter leaving an aircraft or the area itself. I will let you know if I catch anything."
"We'll keep an eye out." Cooper responded.
"Alright, well, we mine as well start making our way to the cafeteria to Cooper." Finn said out loud. "I doubt he's here."
Holley smiled. "I bet then we can leave through the secret exit until tomorrow." The two quickly but calmly left the hangars and went down a hallway to lose their sight in the dark.
A few seconds passed and Finn's watch beeped. He quickly checked it and watched the video a recent camera took of a man running through the hangar and out the side exit.
"He's on his way, check your surroundings." Finn hissed into his radio.
"I copy. We are hidden." Cooper said.
Finn and Holley hung low for a few minutes until they heard anything more from Cooper. Finn jerked up when he heard an explosion erupt from the direction of Cooper and Sid's location. "Let's go!" They both began to run.
Siddeley coughed through the smoke. He was pushed to the floor by someone he believed was Cooper and a thick fog erupted around him. He quickly stood up when he heard footsteps approaching fast and shone his light around the mist.
"Siddeley? Cooper?" Finn called out.
"Finn! Where are you? What happened?" Siddeley shone his light through until he caught glimpse of Holley and Finn approaching him. "Oh thank god you two are here!" He cried out.
"Where's Cooper?" Holley asked, shooing away some of the fog with her hand.
The three shone their lights around the area until the mist began to clear. A hand was placed on Siddeley's shoulder and he let out a scream and whirled around. There was Cooper, holding the imposter by the arm. He was already handcuffed. The three let out a relaxed sigh.
"I think we can release the lock down." Cooper grinned. The Leland imposter only groaned.
Cooper stood nearby and watched the entrance of his office get repaired. Finn walked up next to him.
"Before he could transmit anything after the lock down, We confiscated all of his weapons and known radio contacts." Finn told Cooper.
"Good. I'm glad." Cooper nodded. "Hopefully we'll be able to get something out of him now. Unfortunately, we can't let him go until something is figured out. He still has information on us."
"Let's see if he has anything to say now." Finn suggested. The two left and headed down to the cellar where the imposter was kept and guarded at all times.
Cooper stood outside the cellar and waited until the Leland look-a-like was seated in a chair in a interrogation room. Cooper then entered, sitting in the chair across.
"Please, explain to me again, who cloned you?" Cooper asked.
"You did." Was all Leland said. Finn stood outside of the two way mirror listening, along with Holley.
"You know that is incorrect." Cooper said. "You will not be released until I hear who is behind this."
"You. You. You." Leland growled.
Cooper glared at him and ended the conversation by standing up and leaving the room. A security guard grabbed Leland and led him back to the cellar.
Later, Finn and Holley had returned to their office, however, they made no effort in doing any work.
"I don't know, Finn. Something is wrong here with Cooper." Holley said gently and she stared out the office window. "I hate to say it, but I don't like any of this."
"What do you mean?" Finn asked.
"What if he did clone Leland, and, he's lying?"
"Cooper would never do that. It's even in the lab guidelines and expectations. 'Cloning is a forbidden practice and will result in disciplinary actions'." Finn restated the well known rule.
"I know, I just have a terrible feeling."
