This story is continued from the Flash's crossover episode, episode 8! Towards the beginning of this episode, where team Flash seeks the help of team Arrow, the scene where you see Damien Darhk with his hand on Oliver's chest sucking his life out of him in the A.R.G.U.S. facility. This story starts from that scene and continues from that scene.
Author's note: This is only the first chapter! The other chapters should be longer and should have less dialog!
Disclaimer: I do not own any of these characters, just the storyline!
Damien released his hold on the Arrow and watched as he struggled to breathe again.
"Let that be a lesson on what I could do to you. To all of you!" Darhk said before walking away.
Diggle and Thea ran over to help Oliver up.
"You ok?" Diggle asked.
"I'm fine!" Oliver said once he was back on his feet.
They watched as Darhk and his men took off with the bomb.
"Let's get out of here," Oliver said.
Felicity ran up to hug Oliver when he and the others arrived back at the lair.
"Are you ok?" She asked him, she was concerned from what she had heard through the line.
"I'm fine," he said, giving her a little smile.
"So what are we going to do about Darhk?" Diggle asked Oliver.
"I don't know," said Oliver, "He's not like anyone else we've ever dealt with before!"
"Yes, that's why I'm thinking we're going to need some extra help."
"What do you mean extra help?"
"Maybe call Barry and see if him and a few of their guys out there in Central City can help."
"You don't think we can handle this on our own?"
"I don't know if you just weren't paying attention or what but you almost got killed tonight!"
Oliver sighed deeply, "Felicity is there anyway we can find out where Roy is?"
"I don't know," Felicity looked over towards Thea, "Is there?"
"In the letter he gave me, he didn't tell me where he was going. I don't think he wants to be found."
"Maybe Malcolm and the league can help, I mean this guy was in with the league before!" Oliver suggested.
"That's not a bad idea," Diggle said, "we should get everybody we can get."
"Ok, let's try to come up with a good plan. Until then, let's all go home and get some rest!"
"Cool," Thea said headed toward the elevator.
Diggle followed behind her, "Catch you guys later."
Back at home, while laying in bed, Felicity looked at Oliver as he was staring at the ceiling.
"You ok?" She asked him with a concerned look on her face.
He rolled over to face her and gave her a little smile.
"Yeah, I'm fine," he said.
"You can't fool me," she said, "What's on your mind?"
Oliver shook his head and shrugged his shoulders.
"I was just thinking about what would happen if we can't defeat Darhk!"
"You shouldn't think about that! When you think of everything you've been through on the island and back here in Starling, I know you can beat him! You beat Merlyn, Slade and Ra's, don't think of Darhk as being any different."
"But he is different, that's the point. What are we supposed to do against someone like him, someone with magic powers? One touch and he can suck the life right out of you. I just don't know if we will be strong enough, no matter how many people we bring to help."
Oliver noticed Felicity's expression turn to sadness.
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have said all of that! You're right, we'll find a way. We always do," Oliver kissed her on the forehead, "Let's get some sleep."
Felicity smiled.
She couldn't sleep knowing that she could help but that would mean letting everyone know her secret. She wanted to live her life anew and normal. She said she would never go back to that life. If it meant saving the people she loved then she knew it's what had to be done.
Oliver woke up to find Felicity gone from the bed. He heard an alert going off on his phone, when he looked at it, it was a text from Felicity telling him to meet her at the lair, she had something important to talk to him about.
When Oliver got to the lair, he saw Diggle, Thea and Laurel standing around.
"What's going on?" He asked as he looked around but didn't see Felicity.
"Beats me," said Diggle.
Laurel shook her head and Thea shrugged her shoulders.
"Where's Felicity?" Oliver asked while the elevator door was opening.
"Right here," She said walking in.
"Everything ok? You said you wanted to talk to me." Oliver said looking at everyone else confused.
"Yes, I want to talk to all of you actually," Felicity said.
"What is it? Did you find Roy?" Thea asked.
"No," Felicity said, "I have to tell you all something. I haven't been completely honest with you guys."
Everyone looked at each other and looked back at Felicity waiting to hear what she was talking about.
"It didn't hit me until last night... when you guys were talking about finding help for Darhk," she continued, "I can help."
"You help out a lot here and we appreciate you but you didn't need to call a meeting just to say that," Oliver chuckled.
Felicity didn't crack a smile.
Oliver's smile disappeared, "Help us how?"
"I have powers... magic powers!"
