"Where the hell are you taking us?" Quentin asked Chase as the son of bitch led a shackled Quentin, Thea, John and Felicity through some monastery on Lian Yu.
"You should be thanking me, since it's due to my efforts that you're all being reunited with an old friend." Chase said simply as he and Black Siren pulled their chains.
"Who?" Thea asked as they entered a wide open room and couldn't believe their eyes.
Standing in the center of the room, wearing a black version of Oliver's Green Arrow suit, minus the weapons and mask and with the hood down, chained to the hook on the center of room and wearing high tech handcuffs behind the shackles, was Laurel Lance, alive and well.
"Uh, am I the only one who's seeing double?" Felicity asked.
"Nope, I see her to." Quentin said.
"Me to." John said.
"Me three." Thea said.
"What hell is going on here?" Quentin asked.
"Actually I was hoping you could tell me dad." the chained up Laurel said.
"What universe is this Laurel from and how does she recognize us?" Quentin asked as Chase chained them up with Laurel.
"I think I'll leave you all to get reacquainted." Chase said as he and his underlings left.
"Laurel, is that really you?" Thea asked.
"It's me Speedy." Laurel said.
"Prove it, after all, we've heard this before." Felicity said, trying to find a way that this isn't true.
"Okay and how do you suggest I do that?" Laurel asked, annoyed.
"Tell each of us something that only the real Laurel would know about us." John suggested and Laurel nodded.
"Ok, I'll go first. Laurel, what did I say to you when you and Ollie came to me with working at CNRI rather than jail time after I was arrested for vertigo use?" Thea asked.
"You said that you didn't want to be my office monkey." Laurel said a smile as a look of joy and relief appeared on Thea's face.
"Who's next?" Laurel asked.
"I'll go, what did you say to me when I wasn't sure how to feel about my brother still being alive and a member of Hive? What did you say to me?" John asked.
"I asked if you wanted to talk about it since resurrected siblings were kind of in my wheelhouse, reminded you about how Sara was also a member of an organization of killers and told you that when Andy died, it felt like a piece of yourself died to and that it was a chance to get that part of yourself back." Laurel said Diggle looked as though a huge burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
"Alright, well Felicity, we don't really have any moments between us, but dad, take your best shot." Laurel said, looking at her father, who looked like he was about to cry, but he managed to stutter out his question.
"That night you found you me at the graveyard after you told me about Sara's actual death, what did I say to you when I told about how betrayed I was by what you did?" Quentin asked.
Laurel remembered that painful night before saying "You said that you and I, we had something more, 'cause we were the ones that were alike. And we had a trust and we had a bond, And you broke it. And I don't know how you could do that to us."
Quentin had tears of joy in his eyes now that he really did have his baby girl back.
"How is this possible?" Quentin asked.
"I don't know exactly. I mean, Chase told me how he did it in a dumbed down version so I could understand it, but basically what he said was that he discovered last year due an accident with that involved getting Barry's speed back and before you say anything, Black Siren already told Chase everything she knows about Team Flash, including their identities, it turns out that the same dark matter energy that gave Barry his powers can also reactivate portions of the brain of a deceased person and Chase hit my body with about 10 times the amount of dark matter that used to restore the Flash's speed, though where did this I don't know, but whatever the case, it was enough to reactivate my entire brain and all of my vital organs and it even gave me powers." Laurel said.
"Wait, you have powers now, what are they?" John asked, wondering if she had any they could use to escape.
"My powers are an almost instantaneous healing ability, sonic scream and super strength, but don't bother trying to think of an escape plan with any of those. These cuffs are designed to neutralize my strength and that sonic dampener on the column over there prevent me from using my powers." Laurel said.
"Well that's just great, but ways, I believe John interrupted you while you were telling your story." Quentin said.
"Right so after I was brought back to my life and my powers had restored my body, my mind was still a complete blank, aside from a few incredibly strong memories that I am not going to share, but aside from that I had no idea who I was, how I got where I was or anything about my past. So, after that, Chase asked his mentor Talia al Ghul to help me regain my memories using mental training techniques and she also taught me everything she taught Oliver and Adrian, which is how I got this suit and the name sahm 'asud." Laurel said.
"What does that mean?" Felicity asked curiously.
"It means Black Arrow and considering that I have the same training and a black version of the Green Arrow suit, I think it seems appropriate." Laurel said.
"How did you get here?" Quentin asked.
"Well, I regained all my memories around Christmas and Chase tried to guilt me into working for him and betraying you guys, but he underestimated my devotion to Oliver and the team, because I refused and tried to escape to warn you, but Talia took me out and imprisoned me here 6 months ago." Laurel said.
"So that's why you haven't reached out before now." John said.
"Correct." Laurel said.
"Well now that we've gotten that settled, we need to figure out how to get out of here." Thea said.
"Oliver will find us." John said.
"How do you know he even knows where we are?" Quentin asked.
"I have faith in him." Thea said.
