Hi everyone! I'm a new Arrow fan. I binge watched all 5 seasons in about 3 weeks. I'm actually kind of proud of myself. That being said, I always have my own story lines for things I like in my head, and I have decided to put them on paper. This story focuses on an OC, and I have no idea how long it will be, but here goes...
"My name is Lucy Larabee"
November 4, 2012
There was one thing that Lucy Larabee loved more than anything.
Cookie Dough ice cream.
She sat on a couch, a bowl in her lap, the news playing on the tv.
"Hi, Aunt Mara," Lucy said as her aunt walked in to the house.
"Hi," her aunt responded, the usual look of dissaproval on her face.
Lucy sighed. She quit the Police Force two months ago, and every day her aunt asked her to find a new job. She was getting worried Lucy was spiraling out of control. It had been two years since her mom had been murdered, and sixteen months since her dad seemingly fell on the face of the earth. Her aunt took her in, as she was the only family she had left.
"Lucy," Mara started, "you know the question that is coming."
Lucy sighed and got up from the couch. "Aunt Mara, yes I do. And I'm going to give you the same answer." Lucy walked to the kitchen, cleaning her bowl. "You know I am not going to get a job until Martin Somers is brought to justice."
Mara rolled her eyes. "Lucy! That is the job of the SCPD," she said sternly. "When they find evidence against him, he will see justice. But you, need to live a normal life."
Lucy threw her bowl and spoon in the dishwasher and hurried back to the couch. "I can't," she said. "This is all I think about. He needs to be behind bars. The fact that he got away still makes me sick to my stomach."
Mara sat down next to Lucy, rubbing her back.
"Lucy, I get it. She was my sister and I miss her. But you need..."
Lucy shushed her aunt, eyes fixed on the tv screen. She grabbed the remote and turned the volume up. Martin Somers face appeared on the screen as the reporter told the story.
"And Martin Somers, who had been facing trial for the death of Victor Nocenti has been convicted and tonight sits behind bars. It is all thanks to "The Hood", as some call him. He confronted Somers and forced a confession out of him. He faces a life sentance with no chance of parol."
Both Lucy and Mara sat on the couch, mouths wide open. He was in jail. The man that killed her mom was caught. It was over.
"There," Mara pointed to the tv screen. "Now can you get a job?"
Lucy was frozen. She heard reports of this hooded vigilante. He targeted bad people. Killed some. And he did it. He got him.
"I just found one," she said.
"I need to find him, and I want him to train me."
So here goes! Like I said, I'm not quite sure where this story will go, but I have the next few chapters in my head then I'm guessing it will kind of go from there.
