Oliver shot an arrow at Barry, he saw it coming and dodged it quickly, landing on the floor. He got back to his feet and dodged the next attack before it hit him. They were on the STAR Labs training floor.

"Keep trying, Oliver." Barry teased.

"Your cockiness will be your undoing, Barry!" Oliver said as he shot another arrow this time aiming for the speedster's head. Barry tilted his head to the side and he missed the arrow. The next one hit him in the shoulder, making him stagger.

The next two arrows that Oliver shot got him in the legs, first the right then the left. Barry was brought down, thanks to his cockiness. "I told you, Barry! You need to mind that ego of yours." Oliver said. Barry got up and limped angrily to Caitlin, to have the arrows removed and to be bandaged up.

"Where's Astrid" Oliver asked Caitlin as he put down his bow, beside Barry.

"She's still angry with you, Oliver. So, my guess is that she is upstairs." Caitlin replied.

"Really? It's been a month! She can't still be ma…" Oliver began, but his head began to ache with a crippling headache, more powerful than he could stand.

He was brought to his knees and he turned around, to see Astrid standing behind him. "A month isn't long enough!" Astrid said to him. "Get your bow! We'll settle this!" she released him from his crippling headache long enough for him to get his bow, as she picked up two small daggers.

They met each other in the middle of the field and bowed in the middle. Astrid probed his mind, he tried to put up his mental wall, but she managed to probe beyond that. She saw his first attack, before it came. She ducked and swung out her leg, tripping him over.

"Lucky move, Star!" Oliver said, unaware that she had seen his move, in his mind beyond the wall.
"Don't call me, Star!" she said as she brought her blade to his abdomen. She could have stabbed him, but she managed to hold her temper.

"I get it! You're still mad that I kissed you!" Oliver said, "How many times do i have to apologize?" he asked as he went to shoot another arrow for her. She dodged to the right, landing on the floor, and rolling back up.

"No, you don't get it! You came into town just to ruin things for me. Cisco left because of your stupidity." She snapped at him, as she brought her blade to his leg, actually leaving a cut through his tights into his skin.

He gasped and buckled over, bringing his bow up. She screamed in his mind, he brought his hands to his ears and dropped his bow in defeat. "Star, I'm sorry! How can I make it all up to you?" he asked her.

She released the pressure to his mind again, "Oliver, there's nothing that you can do. I'm done!... and in the future, DONT call me Star!" she threw her blades to his feet and stormed off, leaving Oliver with Barry and Caitlin.

"I didn't realize that she was still that mad…" Oliver said.
"At least, she's only mad at you." Barry replied. Caitlin had just finished bandaging up his legs. "Oliver, did you need me to take a look that cut?" she asked him.

"I'm fine." He said angrily.

"I'm ready for another match, Ollie. If you are…" Barry said.

"Are you sure you want to go back out there, Barry?" Caitlin asked.

"I'm fine, if i have you by my side to bandage me up, Caity." Barry said.

"Always!" Caitlin said with a smile. Barry kissed her and made his way to the floor.

"Alright. Let's do this." Oliver said, readying his bow and releasing another arrow in Barry's direction.

They finished their sparring match and returned to the 97th floor of STAR Labs with Oliver making his way directly to Astrid's office.

"Get out!" she snapped at him.

"No, you're doing that thing where you push everybody away so you don't have to deal with the hurt or hurt anyone else in the process. I'm not the only one who has noticed. You're just like me, Star!" Oliver said.

Astrid stood up and looked at him angrily, "No, I'm doing that thing where I am holding my temper so I don't cause you so much pain that you can't think straight ever again."

"Well, you've already done that, by not reciprocating the same feelings! Look, I'm sorry that I kissed you, I was unstable and you were the one person I could turn to. I betrayed you there and I won't leave until I know that you've forgiven me." He said, with a soft tone.

"Well then, we're at a stale mate. I'm not that same girl I was in high school. I don't pine over you every chance I get. Because of what you did, Cisco left. He hasn't answered or even returned any of my calls. If it wasn't for his constant communication with Caitlin and Barry, I'd think that something would have happened to him. But nope, he's in Gotham City, apparently helping out the Batman! and he doesn't even want to talk to me!"

Oliver's face fell. "that might also be my fault."
"Why?" she asked.

"Because, I might have spoken to Batman, putting in a good word for Cisco." Oliver replied.

Fury swept over her. "Get out, Oliver! Now!" she yelled. He left, closing the door behind him.

"Why must you always have to insist, Ollie? She's not going to forgive you!" Barry told him, as Oliver entered the cortex.
"I really don't know," Oliver replied, "I'm going to head back to Star City where I can't cause any more trouble… I need to get back to my campaign."

"That's right, you're trying out for mayor, Mr Queen," Harry said, "I would recommend you get back as fast as possible, to not disappoint the masses."

"And say hi to Felicity for me," Ray Palmer, who was currently helping out by filling in for Cisco, said.

"I will." Oliver replied as he left.

Harry walked back into his office and closed the door behind him. He picked up the tablet in front of him, contacting Harrison from the council of Wells'.

"Have your men found anything on Kent Nelson," he asked the version of himself with the long hair, slicked back.

"Actually, we stumbled across a piece of news that might be of interest to you. It seems that the Barry Allen that you are indeed in associations with did have contact with the man before the flashpoint activity. He would be your best lead." Harrison replied.

"I'm not going to ask how you found out that information, because I understand that it wouldn't have been easy. But thank you." Dr Wells replied.

"You're most welcome, World Walker. Harrison out."

Harry placed the tablet back on the desk and walked back out of the office, he was going to speak to Barry, and he knew the best way to get information from him. He would offer some assistance with Barry's Eobard Thawne problem down in the pipelines below.
