A/N: Initially, I thought about holding onto this for "Find Your Way Back," but I felt this deserved to stand alone.

Sanity

"Would you sacrifice your sanity to save the archer?"

It was the last thing I heard from the Helmet of Nabu. Clearly the helmet had never been worn by someone in love. What other reason would someone voluntarily enter an unidentified vehicle with a bag over her head and her hands tied behind her back?

Love makes you do crazy things and that's why I'm sitting here blinded and bound, living my 'fate,' for lack of a better term. The truth is Oliver had taken my sanity long before that helmet ever had a chance. I loved him, and I refused to sit by and let him get tortured.

Oliver probably will hate me for doing this, but I saw no other option. Besides, it was my turn to save him.

I hope that I get to see his smiling face one more time, but I've experienced first-hand that not everything can end happily ever after.
