Chapter 8.
Snart didn't want to go back into that warehouse with those two, but he knew he had no choice. He stopped at the door and took a deep breath before opening the door and walking in.
The second he entered three sets of eyes were on him. Lewis, San and a new guy. " Finally, what took so long? " says Sam.
" Had a long walk back. " replied Snart walking over. He stood close to the table they were around and crossed his arms.
" You didn't let a lot slip did you?" Growled Lewis.
Snart rolled his eyes. " I didn't tell him any more then I was told to tell him. "
sam smiled. " Good, you know how to follow rules. Keep it that way. " he then looked at Lewis and nodded at him to continue what he had been saying.
" Well, now that you are here, we make our move at 9:00. That's when the clean crews go in and the daytime shift leaves. Now we'll go up the service elevator to the 27th floor. They got a two-man team of armed guards working the 27th through 29th floor, but if we time it perfectly with their shift change we should be able to get in and out. " says Lewis.
Snart crossed his his arms and had one up at his chin. " And if the timing doesn't work out? "
" Then those guards don't make it home. " says Lewis.
" but if we start at the top floor there's a service elevator that will..." Snart was stopped in the middle of talking by Lewis as he walked up to him.
" Son, you and I both know that there's casualties in this line of work. " says Lewis. He went to touch Snarts shoulder, but Snart dodged him by moving to the side. He and Lewis locked eyes before he turned.
" Rutenburg, your the tech guy. Did you find a salution for the vault hallway?" Says Lewis.
" Not yet. That Draycons systems keypad's gonna be a problem." The new guy responded. Lewis chuckled then looked at Snart.
" Fine, how about you? You gonna disappoint me too, or is that freeze gun of yours gonna look after the power source for the laser grid?" Says Lewis.
" It's a Cold Gun, and yes, but I have a better way past the lasers. " says Snart giving him a look.
The Rutenburg guy glared at Snart. " That gun is the only reason your here, so shut up before I make you..." he stopped in the middle of speaking and gripped his head when Lewis suddenly brought out a remote and charged it up. Whirring was heard.
They Rutenburg guy stumbled back. " Ow, ow my- my head. Oh my head. Ah it feels like it's gonna..."
Lewis then pressed the button and Rutenburg's head exploded. Snarts face was a look of horror. " Nobody talks to my son that way. Nobody. " growled Lewis.
" Snart. Go for a walk. I need to have a talk with your father. " growled Sam. Snart nodded and left.
The second he was four blocks away the trembling started. His breathing picked up and fear took over. He sunk to the ground and gripped his head. " No, no that things in Lisa. Oh gosh no! " Cried Snart.
Snart was freakin' out. Lewis had to have done that to make a point. To make sure Snart never disobeyed him. How did he get that bomb in that guys head anyway?!
He sat there freakin' out when the person Snart least expected showed up. " Snart."
He looked up and there was Cisco. He got down by Snart and placed a hand on his knee. " Barry filled us in on everything. I want to let you know I am working on the clue. Why are you so freaked out?" Says Cisco.
" I just watched my father kill a man by making his head explode. " says Snart.
" You've seen someone die before right? So why is this so personal to..." he stopped short. His eyes widened and he looked at Snart. " Lisa has a pain in her neck. She's got a bomb in her neck. Doesn't she?" Says Cisco.
Snart nodded once. " You need to leave. Lewis always finds out what I'm doing. Please just... save her. " says Snart. Cisco nodded and took off. Snart was beginning to wonder how he was here so fast. Then he noticed the Togo coffee cup from Jitters and saw it was right across the street.
Snart had had never been so terrified before. If Lewis decides to kill Lisa... no he couldn't think like that. It wouldn't happen, Barry and Cisco and the rest of the team will prevent it. They had no choice.
Finally, after Snart had calmed down, he got up and went back. The second he walked in though, he was smacked across the face hard enough to make him fall. Seconds later after that a foot came in contact with his rib cage so hard Snart could have sworn a rib broke or maybe fractured.
Snart hissed in pain and looked up. He was a bit shocked to see it was Sam who hit him this time. He lifted Snart up and growled. " I said go for a walk, not give everything away. " growled Sam.
" If you want Flash here tonight for the plan, he needs to know the full extent of what he's up against. I still didn't tell them about you though. " growled Snart.
" That wasn't the Flash you spoke to. " growled Sam.
" That was a man named Cisco. He's works for the Flash. He's their weapon maker, he made my Cold Gun. " says Snart.
Sam glared at him for a few seconds that seemed like hours. He then set Snart down fully. " Make one more mistake before tonight and I will kill you. Understand." Growled Sam.
Snart nodded. " Understood. " says Snart. Sam then released his shirt and backed up. " Go get your Cold Gun ready. Clean it or whatever the heck it is you do. " says Sam.
Snart walked off off to a side room and sat down. He brought out his Cold Gun and started to take it apart. He checked every part of it to make sure it was all working before putting it back together. He took as slowly as he could and managed to make it last a hour and a half. By now he had a rag and was wiping it down.
Then he sensed Barry. It was time to start this mission. " These visits are getting old." He then looked at Barry.
" Third times the charm. " says Barry.
" I told you, I don't need saving. " says Snart.
" But your sister does. " at that Snart froze and some relief flowed through him. " I know your dad put a bomb in Lisa. Lewis told you he'd kill her if you didn't help him. Look don't worry, my team is working on a way to remove the bomb. " says Barry.
" I hope you got that gun of yours ready to blast cause..." Lewis was walking in. Snart froze and looked at Barry in warning meaning he had better think fast. Lewis walked in a froze upon seeing Barry. " Who the heck is this?"
Barry stepped forward. " Uh Lenny here said you needed new tech. " Barry stuck out his hand. " What's up, I'm Sam. So..."
Snart freakin panicked then. Sam, he just had to pick the name Sam. Snart could only hope this didn't end badly.
Lewis huffed. " Heh, " he started. He looked at Snart. " You think this kid can crack a Draycon keypad?"
Snart had no idea how to answer this. Barry took cate of that for him though. " Well I did help Snart steak the Kahndaq diamond last year. It was locked behind an AmerTek Industries Phase Three Suppression Door with a Draycon XL-1218 Keypad. So.." says Barry with a chuckle.
Snart gave a face. " Couldn't have done it without him. "
" Draycon's my jam. " says Barry. Snart wanted to roll his eyes, but he resisted.
" Ah, ok Sam. Let's go. " says Lewis.
Barry looked shocked. " Right now?" He said.
" You got a problem with that? " questioned Lewis.
" No, all good. Can't wait. " says Barry.
" Oh, this should be fun. " says Snart sarcastically.
" Keep quiet and follow my lead. " Snapped Lewis to Snart.
" Just like old times. " replied Snart. He gave Barry a look as he passed him and followed Lewis out the door.
Barry followed. The two got in the back of the van while Lewis got into the drivers seat. He tossed back some outfits. " Get dressed. " he snapped.
They nodded. Lewis started the car and drove off. Snart would be lying if he said he wasn't nervous about this. He just hoped Barry didn't blow his cover.
" What do you think your doing?" Whispered Snart. Quiet enough that Lewis couldn't hear.
" Saving you. I am not going to let you do this alone. " says Barry.
" Whatever. Follow my lead though. I don't need you blowing your cover the second we walk in there. " says Snart. Barry nodded in reply. They got dressed and ready.
Soon enough they pulled up led up to the building. Snart took a deep breath. Well, here goes nothing. With that they got out and got their supplies before finally they headed for the building.
