A wee bit later and they were back holding some sort of gun. Cisco handed it to Barry who had no idea what it was. "What is it?" Barry asked.
"You'll see." Cisco said. "All you have to do is shoot it at him. Don't worry it can penetrate his metal. Once you do that it will slowly shut down his cybernetics with a neutral pulse then the tranquilliser dart will do the rest. Then you can drag him outside to us in the van. He will be too heavy to carry back yourself." Barry nodded and left. Cisco gave him directions to where he had tracked Vic.
Flash skidded to a stop outside the abandoned warehouse and then he slowly walked in. Victor was hunched over a workbench - he was tinkering with something. "Just go Flash." Victor said. Flash stood bewildered by the door. 'How did he know I was there.' He thought. 'Should I tranq him now or should I wait. I should wait, ask him first - that would be a nice thing to do. I mean he is Victor Stone' Then Flash spotted a camera by the door, facing him.
"I want to ask you something." Barry said. "Can I?" Victor turned around and walked up to Flash. Flash had to look up at him due to his unusual height - the guy was 2 meters tall and that was WITH his growth being stopped because of the implants! His facial expression read; 'sure ask me what you want.' "You were such a nice guy. Why did you become a criminal, again?" Victor looked at Flash - he was sad. Victor scratched the back of his forehead and sighed.
"I never wanted to be a criminal. I just need some things." Victor said going back to his workbench. "You can go now I have answered your question." But Barry didn't leave, he put his hand in his pocket and felt around for the gun with the specialised dart in it.
"I didn't come just to ask you that question." Barry told him.
"Oh I know, I just don't care." Victor replied.
"Then why did you tell me to go?"
"Because... because I want to be left alone to work on my hologram generator."
"Oh, so you are not creating anything bad. Not that criminals will tend to say to a hero if they are."
"Nope. I am not and if you're not going to leave can you at least help me install it into my cybernetics." Victor said turning around to face Flash once again this time with his arms spread out.
"Can you come with me? This warehouse is giving me the creeps." Barry said looking at Victor.
"If this place is giving you the creeps then just go without me. Into the van outside with your friends in it, outside." Barry just stood, shocked at Victor. 'How did he know about the van?' Barry thought to himself. "So are you going to help me or are you going to go running, scared of your pals?" Victor asked, mocking the Flash by using a childish voice and then going into a fit of laughter.
I ... I guess I will help you. Not that I've got anything better to do for the rest of the day."
"Good. Now just put your gun down on the ground beside you."
Barry put his hand in his pocket and brought out the gun. He showed it to Victor. "You mean this gun?"
"Yes! Now put it down on the ground before I lose my patience and kill you in the most painful way possible."
Flash gulped and then went to put it down on the ground. Just before it touched the surface he used his superspeed to shoot Victor with it. It hit him bang smack in the middle of his chest and he went flying backwards, knocking over the table and doing roly-poly. Lying on the ground he had a disadvantage, but that soon changed when he jumped up. "You really thought a tranquiliser dart was going to stop me. You know nothing." Flash looked scared as he backed-up against the wall. "Ehh... guys. Victor's still standing and he looks like he is going to kill me." Flash said into his earpiece. 'Wait for it.' Cisco said to Flash. Flash turned around to see Victor clutching his chest. He then doubled over and fell onto his knee.
"What the fuck did you hit me with?!" Victor half-shouted at Flash.
"A tranq dart specifically made for you. It sends a neutral pulse through your cybernetics, turning them off leaving only your life support functions on. Once that happens a normal tranq dart is activated rendering you completely unconscious."
"I thought you were scientists and your bright idea is to give me a TIA (a mini stroke)! Are you guys out of your mind!" Victor replied before falling flat onto his face. Flash walked over and knelt down in front of his face. His normally bright lights of his cybernetics growing dimmer. His eyelid slowly closing - but staring at him. "This is for your own good" was the last thing Victor heard before passing out.
Flash then dragged him into the back of the van. "Got him guys." Flash said to the others. Flash started to take off his mask when Harry said not to because Victor's visual receptors might still be working. "What do we do now? I mean we've got him so...?" Barry asked.
"We put him in the pipeline like everyone else." Caitlin said. "He may be famous or at least was but that doesn't mean he gets special treatment."
"The cells can't hold him." Harry suddenly said breaking the silence. Everyone looked at him confused. "The cells are built to neutralise powers and... well he has no meta-powers or any powers for that matter. Vic is just a guy in a robot suit." Everyone was still confused. "The cells are made to hold powered beings not cybernetically enhanced ones." Everyone nodded - showing that they understand what he is trying to say.
"Then what do we do? I mean we are the only people that are even slightly capable of holding him." Barry told them. Everyone thought for a moment before coming up with no conclusion.
