The Great Escapes



Since Yamato offered to come to Central City and help with the epidemic crisis, things have been crazy, but handling them has been a whole lot easier now that Barry isn't operating alone.

He even got some rest in, on Yamato's orders, and they've got a bit of down time as far as emergencies in the city go so they're using it to work on other problems.

While Yamato recalibrates the S.T.A.R. Labs satellite to track the new meta they suspect is behind a whole bunch of the crime, and a death-trap or two set for Barry, Barry is getting his science nerd-amateur virologist on, trying to find a cure to the bug that has so much of the City down; including his team.

Sitting at a desk in the Cortex, Barry works away with a microscope taking notes on a tablet. Beside him are several boxes of chicken nuggets which he's working through, with a few empty ones already in the waste bin nearby.

In the middle of the space on the floor GP the porg is munching on shrimp treats while bopping around an inflatable S.T.A.R. Labs beach ball.

"Good work. I've nearly got the truck's current location, I just need a few more minutes," Yamato replies. "How's your arm doing?"

Next to him, the scan finishes coming online, showing a red patch around a few blocks of city, stalled where the Commander stopped it. Yamato makes an irritable noise in the back of his throat, and brings up the algorithm on his wrist computer, setting about loading the new data they received from the attack on S.T.A.R. Labs' systems into it, keeping one eye on the camera feeds as he goes.

"Barry, that's not alri -- ..." Yamato starts, feeling a pang of guilt that is quickly stopped by ... is that the sound of things flying through the air?

He brings up the camera feeds from around the restaurant, except the only camera in the restaurant just covers the front door and nothing else, and the kitchen doesn't have any windows for him to look through from the outside. He's completely blind.

"I can't see a thing. Sounds like ninjas."

"They pulled into an underground parking lot forty seconds ago, most likely to steal some less easy " Yamato says, and rattles off the address. "Camera coverage is pretty good, so I'll be able to give you some help with this one. It looks like all the remaining escapees are there, all armed."

He finishes up loading the new data into the algorithm, and sets the scan going again. It flickers out wide to cover the entire city again, but it doesn't seem to start whittling down the search area again just yet.

"I've started the scan going again, too. Whether it'll find anything if the Commander isn't actively using his powers, I can't say for sure, but it's possible."

"His men must have some way to get in contact with him," Yamato says, after a moment of thought. "It can't just be one-way communication from him to them, that would make him incapable of coordinating them effectively. If he wants to turtle up, the best way to draw him out of his shell is to make them ask for help."

He pauses, rubbing a hand over his jaw and frowning at the console. "So, harry them. Disarm them, take a few down, but don't take all of them out, box them into the truck, keep on their tail when they try to flee with it. Force them to reach out and demand help."

"I've got a visual on you. Be careful, alright? And don't do anything to make that arm worse."

Yamato would love to tell Barry to get back to S.T.A.R. Labs right now so they can get that bullet out and start him healing, but that'd most likely mean losing the five escapees -- and any chance at getting the Commander -- altogether.

"They're spread out right now. Two of them are still by the truck, and three of them are a little way away looking for good cars to use as escape vehicles."

"Will do."

The scan appears to be slowly whittling down its search area, a positive sign that it's picking up on something, but the process is glacial, and every so often it widens its search area by a little bit again.

At least so far, none of the escapees seem to have noticed Barry, as far as Yamato can see. They're too focused on finding escape vehicles that won't be so easy to track.

"Nice hook, though," Yamato remarks, settling his chin on his hand. "Getting a one hit knockout is pretty cool, even if the momentum from superspeed helps."

"That's fine. Keep moving, don't slow down," Yamato says, calmly. "Focus on disarming them and pushing them together."

He glances at the scan. No real progress yet. As he glances back at the cameras, he sees the two near the truck moving around towards the front seats.

"The two by the truck are trying to run."

Yamato just barely suppresses a snarl when that kick lands against Barry's side. Seeing them get tied up in a fire hose is a little more satisfying, but Yamato's still worried about the damage that kick might have done to Barry's arm.

"Just heading out onto the road now," he says, glancing at the camera feed, where the truck is just emerging out into the morning sunlight. "North exit, turning west."

[personal profile] angry_friendship_wolf 2019-02-06 04:12 am (UTC)(link)
"Nothing useful yet," Yamato says, shaking his head. "That kick looked like it jarred your arm pretty badly, though. If you want to back off, we can figure out another way to do this."

Not that Yamato knows what that way would be.

"It's your call. You know the limits of what your accelerated healing can deal with. Just think about it with a clear head."

"All right, then. I'll have a surgical kit ready by the time you get back. Don't expect me to be as gentle as Caitlin."

After all, all of Yamato's knowledge of field medicine was taught to him by Jyou, who has the delicacy and bedside manner of an irate walrus.

He watches the truck on the camera feed, and sees them change direction suddenly, veering off down another road. "Doing good. Keep going."

"Seems unlikely," Yamato replies, voice dropping into a deeply ominous growl.

As Barry works, he might hear a slightly knowing chuckle on the line as Yamato, with the benefit of several maps in front of him, realises what Barry's doing.

After a few more minutes, the scan gives a loud beep, as it gets a signal and -- with the more complete pattern Yamato added to the algorithm earlier -- rapidly homes in on it, until it narrows to a single, beeping point near the outskirts of the city.

"Got a lock on him, and a complete radio and dark matter signature logged. We should be able to keep tracking him now, even if he stops using his powers."

At around the same time, road just ahead of Barry and just behind the truck becomes a mass of traffic jammed together as the traffic lights across three blocks change in such a way as to produce a torrent of cars, all skidding to a stop as they find themselves in gridlock, barricading the road as the truck picks up speed.

Yamato shuts his eyes, but holds back from making any sounds that might give away how he's feeling. Instead, he just turns his attention to making sure EMTs and firetrucks are dispatched to that location.

"That's done. Get back here," he says, after a few moments.
