When Snart woke next he was on the cold floor in that room Lewis gave him. He had been tossed to the ground after he had passed out. Snarts head hurt pretty badly now. He slowly pushed up and shook his head.
He remembered a lot of what happened. He lasted a long while before the taser rendered him unconscious. Lewis was going to pay big time once his sister was safe. Snart got to his knees and saw then a small container of food, a water bottle and a note for him.
He grabbed the note note and read it. Eat that food and get out here when you wake. Our friend should be here at nine. Hope you learned your lesson. Snart rolled his eyes in annoyance. It was morning and there was a watch it was 8:20 in the morning he'd been passed out since yesterday afternoon.
He opened the container and all that was there was a plain hamburger and a few chips. How wonderful for dinner. It reminded him of school lunches whenever he never had time to make his lunch and Lewis had to do it.
What frustrates him more than anything is the fact that Lewis called their little torture session a lesson. What kind of lesson is tasing your own fully grown child until he passed out.
Snart pulled out the food, say back and slowly started eating it. He was in no hurry to eat fast and then make his way to Lewis. He actually just wanted to sleep some more. After he ate he sat back against the closest wall and closed his eyes.
He really missed his bed, he really missed Lisa, heck he even really missed Mick. He just wanted to go home and pretend like none of this had ever happened. He was still hungry, but he doubted he'd get anymore food until after this heist.
He probably sat there a good thirty minutes before finally getting up and grabbing the water. He guzzled it down and left the room. As he walked in he froze at the door. He heard another voice aside from his fathers and he quickly hid.
" Everything is going as planned. I don't need you to screw this up by torturing him again. " growled the voice. Snart noticed that the voice seemed familiar, but he couldn't place it.
" I didn't torture him. I taught him a lesson for his bad behavior and mistake. " says Lewis. Snart silently growled in anger at that.
" Your son was right. You are a sick freak. A parent shouldn't torture their child, especially one that used to be a cop. Ain't it a wonder you got fired. " he growled.
Lewis growled in anger. " There a point to this?"
" Yes. I need your son in good health for my plan. Using a taser on him until he passed out is bad for him. " he said.
" Since when have you cared for that brats health?" Says Lewis.
" I don't, but for my plan to work I need him to be able to move. I knew he was going to let the Flash in on this or give him a hint. It's what I wanted to happen. I didn't want for you to torture him though. " growled the guy.
" You knew he'd slip up with the Flash. " says Lewis.
" Of course I did. Your son thinks he's slick with this. The Flash is close to figuring out what's going on. I need Snart to go and give him another hint before we got through with the heist. " says the guy.
" What if Flash stops us and..."
" Shh. We have a guest." Says the guy
Snart knew he should have left when he had the chance. Lewis suddenly appeared in his sights. He growled and gripped Snarts upper arm and yanked him roughly into the room.
" I'd like you to meet our friend. He calls himself. Mirror Master. " says Lewis.
Snart looked at the guy. This guy was grinning at Snart. Snart couldn't believe his eyes, it was Sam Scudder. " What... I don't under... your supposed to be dead. " says Snart.
" You'd think that, but no. I flew into the mirror. I lived in the mirror until I figured out how to use my powers and exit the mirror. Once I mastered it myself I was able to do so much more. " says Sam.
" You tried to kill me and now your a stupid meta." Growled Snart. Lewis gripped tighter and Snart winced in pain.
" Realease his arm Lewis. " growled Sam.
Lewis growled, but released him. Snart walked to the side. " I did try to kill you yes, that's all I wanted to do when I left the mirror, but then I realized. Why kill you when I can make you work for me. So I studied you, for months. Learned everything about you. Your favorite place to eat, your favorite thing to do. Who you care about the most. Everything and now I'm going to use the knowledge to my advantage. " says Sam.
" That was you I saw on my phone screen. Y-you were in the reflection watching me. " says Snart.
" Yes I was. I'll answer more of your questions or whatever later. Right now, I need you to go to Jitters. Flash should be there in thirty minutes. I want you to talk to him answer some questions about your injuries and who caused them. Then come back and we will do last minute preparations for the heist. " says Sam.
" What, you not going to give me money too?" Snart growled sarcastically.
Sam ignored his sarcastic comment and walked up to him and pulled out a small shard of glass. " Stay still or your sister dies. " he ordered.
Snart froze. " I know I said no hurting you, and technically this isn't going to affect your ability to perform well at the heist tonight. I just need Flash to realize you are letting Lewis abuse you again. He will try what he can to protect you by trying to get involved any wa he can in tonight's heist. Let slip something about a bomb and Lisa, but not what's going on completely. He will figure it out and rush on over. So stay still. " says Sam.
Lewis watched as Sam placed the sharp edge on Snarts left cheek and with one quick swipe, he sliced open a two to three inch cut. One that would need stitches. Snart gasped in sharply at the pain from it. He then felt the blood start to trickle down his face. He then smiled. " Go. Let him fix it if you want. Leave. " growled Sam.
Snart nodded and backed up before turning and leaving. He made it to Jitters about ten minutes later and sat at a table. He took a few napkins and wiped the blood away. It had already leaked onto his shirt.
Snart growled in anger. It just had to be Scudder. Stupid freaks, both of them. He sat there for about twenty minutes before Barry walked in. He looked around and right away noticed Snart.
Forgetting what hat he was there to get he walked right over to Snart. " What the heck happened to you?" Says Barry.
Snart sneered at Barry. " It's nothing you need to concern yourself with Scarlet. Go run off. " says Snart making a shooing motion. If he couldn't escape these two, maybe he could ruin their plans they had for the Scarlet Speedster.
" I'm not leaving until you tell me what happened to your cheek and what happened to your neck " says Barry
" I already gave you an answer, now move alo... OW!" Cried Snart suddenly as barry gripped his bruised wrist and yanked him forward.
He pushed up his sleeve. " These bruises are worse Snart. Explain to me what happened or this conversation will be taken somewhere more private. " growled Barry.
" I can't tell you Barry. " says Snart. Barry stiffened.
" Fine, have it your way." Suddenly everything was a blur and Snarts stumach flipped. It was less then a minute and Snart was set on the ground in the woods.
Snart stumbled led to the side and gripped a tree as his vision steadied. There were no reflections out here. Scudder couldn't see or hear them. Barry then zoomed forward and had Snart pinned against a tree.
" Answer me. Who did this?" Growled Barry.
" Stop asking the stupid questions and ask the question that you've been wanting to ask. " says Snart.
" Did Lewis do this?" Says Barry.
Snart remembered what Sam said. " Yes. "
Barry growled in anger at that. " Why? Why on earth would you let him do this to you? Your a fully grown man. He has no right. " says Barry.
" I'm not doing this by choice. " snapped Snart.
Barry's eyes widened. " I was right. He is forcing you to do this. Why? What does he have on you?" Says Barry.
Snart shut his mouth then. Barry sighed and lifted his hand, he ran his finger gently over the cut on his face. Snart jerked his head back. " What did he do when you returned yesterday?" Says Barry.
" He brought out his old police taser. " says Snart.
Barry looked horrified. " Gosh the marks on your neck..." he trailed off.
" Are from the taser. Yes. " says Snart.
" How long?" He asked.
" A few hours until I finally passed out. " says Snart.
" I need to get you somewhere safe. You need to be under protection and..."
" NO!" Yelled Snart in panic before he could stop himself. Barry looked at him. " I can't run from this. Please don't do anything that will keep me from this?"
" You would never willingly work with him. Your being forced to which means he's threatening you. What's he using that's got you so scared? " Barry then gasped. " No, not what, who?"
Snart looked down. Barry released him. " Lisa." He said finally.
Snart looked eyes with him and Barry then knew the truth. " Dang Snart. " he said.
" He attacked me when I returned from eating yesterday. He spent countless hours torturing me with that taser and said if I fought back he'd kill her. I passed out after a while and woke about a hour ago maybe. I can't tell you how he's threatening you, but I was told I can give you a hint. " says Snart.
" You were told?" Asked Barry.
" Lewis knows a lot. I'm not sure if he knows who you are, but he knew you'd be here and would ask questions. He's hoping you'll join us for the heist tonight. " says Snart.
Barry nodded. " Fine. I'm willing to risk it. " says Barry.
" I'm not. You need to stay for away from him. Get your friends. Find some way to get me out of this and get Lisa checked out. She's had a pain in her neck recently. " says Snart.
Barry sighed. " I can't stay away from this. You know I can't. My friends will work over everything while I keep an eye on you. " says Barry.
Snart growled. " Fine. Tell me which way to go and I'll walk back myself. I'd rather had some time to myself before having to go back. " says Snart.
" At least let me stitch up that cut. " says Barry. Snart nodded. Barry rushed off and came back with wipes and a first aid kit. He then got to work. He wiped the cut clean, then threaded the needle. He ran some disinfectant over it which caused Snart to wince. He then started to stitch it up. " When this is over, Caitlin's going to want to get a look at all your injuries. "
Snart nodded. " Very well. " he said.
" To get home, just got straight that way and Central City is five miles away. " says Barry.
Snart nodded thanks. He turned and started walking. Only Barry never left his side. The two walked in silence the entire way until they were at the town limits. " I'll be seeing you later tonight. " says Barry.
Snart nodded. " Also. Sorry for rushing you off to the woods and all. " says Barry.
Snart gave a smirk. " Nah, your fine Scarlet. It gave me a few hours break. " says Snart.
" Lewis isn't going to hurt you when you get back is he?" Says Barry.
" I honestly don't know what he will do. If he does anything, you'll more then likely see it later. " Snart started to walk away.
" Wait, what about the hint for Lisa? " says Barry.
" Remember what I said Scarlet about checking Lisa out. I already gave you the hint. " says Snart and with that he left for the warehouse again, not sure of what's to come, but hoping it's nothing bad.
