Chapter Two:
Home
Destiny stood outside her brother's apartment, Tommy right next to her, sunglasses and a hat on his head.
"so we're seeing your brother first because he hates you less?" Tommy asked with a frown, she nodded, before pressing the button to Desmond's apartment.
"yea?" his voice came from the speaker,
"Could you let us in?" destiny asked; they heard something crash through the speaker, Tommy laughed.
"Destiny?" Desmond practically yelled into the speaker, said brunette glanced at Tommy and shook her head.
"Are you going to let us in Dez or do I have to stand down here in the rain?" the door buzzed and Tommy quickly opened it for her. "Thank you Mr. Merlyn."
Tommy rolled his eyes before following her up the stairs, they get to Desmond's room and knocked on the door. It flew open and Destiny was pulled into a hug. She laughed and hugged her younger brother back; Desmond let her go and glanced at Tommy, he frowned suddenly confused.
"I went to your funeral." he said; Desmond quickly shut the door and crossed his arms. "How did I go to your funeral but here you are breathing the same air as me?"
Tommy smiled and began telling Desmond the story, it took ten minutes because Desmond kept interrupting but finally Tommy finished.
"Is that why there were men at Grandpa's old place?" Dez asked; Destiny smirked and nodded.
"wanna check it out?" she asked; Desmond nodded, "when is your lease up on this place?"
Desmond shrugged and answered with a couple of months, Destiny smiled and grabbed his hand.
"you will be moving into the house, I'm going to need your help but we can't talk about it here." she said; Desmond looked at Tommy confused. He shook his head as Destiny walked back to the door. "come on little brother have some faith."
Desmond shook his head and followed his older sister down to the car.
Twenty minutes later the siblings and Tommy walked into their grandfather's old house and grinned.
"the last time we were here, It was the Christmas before grandma died." Desmond said; Destiny smiled and entered the library. She grinned when she saw the new set up. Lucius Fox was waiting for her.
"Miss Monroe. I have everything set up just as you wanted it, the construction workers don't remember even being on the property so you are in the clear." he said. Destiny smiled and hugged the older man.
"Thank you, Lucius." she said; he smiled at her as she went to the closet door and pressed a button. A panel right next to the door flipped open to reveal a screen; Destiny smiled as she placed her hand on it; it scanned her hand and the door slid revealing that the closet had been replaced with an elevator. Destiny walked in and motioned for the other three to enter the elevator, the door closed and it began it's decent. Desmond looked at Tommy confused, who in returned just shrugged. The doors opened again to revealed an underground hideout, so they had a place to do their business without any chance of the cops finding out.
Lucius handed her a computer chip; Tommy and Desmond looked on confused as she walked over to the table and slid the chip into it. A humming noise is heard before
"Miss Monroe how may I be of service?" a female voice said;
"yes Tesla, I would like to add Desmond and Tommy to the voice command database." Destiny said with a grin.
"Yes ma'am." Tesla said before scanning Tommy and Desmond.
"Please state your name." Tesla said; Tommy glanced at Destiny who was grinning happily.
"Really? You names her after Nikola Tesla?" Desmond asked; Destiny glared at him and he frowned. "Desmond Monroe."
Everyone turned to Tommy, who said his name, Tesla thanked them both and Destiny turned to Desmond.
"and yes in a way I did but it was the character from that SYFY show Sanctuary." Desmond shot her an unamused look and shook his head, Tommy just looked at them both confused on what Sanctuary was.
"Dez can you Hack into Queen consolidations computer to set up an appointment to see Oliver." she asked; Desmond looked at her and smirked.
"is the pope catholic?" he asked before heading over to the Computers she had set up for him. She looked at Tommy and frowned
"Are you sure you want to do this Tommy?" She asked him as she sat down on the couch that sat in front of a big screen TV, he nodded and sat on the couch next to her.
"She deserves to know first. I love her." Destiny grinned and hugged him.
"Lets hope she reacts better than she did when Ollie came home."
"I also didn't leave with her sister." Tommy said. Destiny smiled as she put her hair up in a bun. She flipped on the TV and began scrolling through her emails on her Tablet.
Her phone binged as her IM popped up. Destiny smiled seeing that it was Selina.
Bat-Mistress: hello Marilyn, how is starling city.
Tiny_Marilyn: hello Kitty-Kat. Ghost and I are doing well in Starling City We are meeting the CEO and The Lawyer tomorrow. I don't know how that is going go.
Bat-Mistress: Sounds like fun. From what you've been telling me Im sure you and CEO will be sharing a bed in no time.
Tiny_Marilyn: Haha nope. I'm sure he's going to be busy with different flings. Anyway how is europe? Is the Bossman keeping you satisfied?
Bat-Mistress: Its beautiful. I found some dresses that were 'you' so ill send them to you once you move into the manor. And you know it sweetie.
Tiny_Marilyn: The basement is done. But ill text you when we get settled in. I think Desmond needs me.
Bat-Mistress: Alright darling, talk soon.
"Do I even want to know why your screen name is Tiny_Marilyn?" Tommy said before handing her food to her.
"When I met Selina I was dressed like Marilyn Monroe," destiny explained before taking a bite of her salad. He nodded and looked around at their Hideaway
"So no creepy bat cave?" He asked, destiny laughed and shook her head.
"No, I'm more of a super awesome reminds you of star trek and the iron man comics." Tommy shook his head.
"What did you mean when we get settled into the manor?" He asked, destiny froze and glanced at him "Oh ummm sorry I just figured since you were staying with me at my flat in Gothem that you'd be staying at the manor especially since the lair would be under it. But if you plan on living in your dad's old place."
"No that's fine just until Laurel and I get back to where we were." Destiny nodded in understanding, and went back to her phone.
The next morning, they stood next to their cars.
"Well good luck with Laurel. Don't forget to give her the letters. And I hope everything works out."
He nodded and hugged her, he frown when he noticed her shaking.
"Tiny, you'll be fine." He said kissing her forehead. She nodded and got into her jaguar and took off towards queen consolidations.
Her hand shook as she shut the car off in the parking lot 10 minutes later. She sighed and took a deep breath. Her phone meowed causing her to smile. She opened the text to see that Selina had send her a video. She pushed Play and smiled when Selina's smiling face appeared.
"Hey destiny, I know you're probably nervous to see Ollie again but you have no reason to be, you are a strong independent woman and he's an idiot if he doesn't understand why you left. Oh and Bruce wants you to be nice to this Arrow you told us about." She looked behind her and sighed, "I've woken up Bruce, so I have to go, but I will see you for Halloween, I love you."
Destiny grinned and got out of the car more confident than she was before. She made her way through the familiar building and to the elevator. When she got to his floor she walked out only to bump into a blond who's tablet went flying, Destiny's reflexes kicked in and she caught the woman's tablet with ease,
"Oh god thank you, so much, my whole life is on that, not to mention my boss's so I'm rambling again, I'm felicity."
"Destiny. I have a meeting with Oliver." She said with a smile.
"Oh okay. I don't remember talking to you to make the appointment. " she said, "not that I'm accusing you of anything,"
"I got in late last night so I hacked your systems." She said before walking into Oliver's office, Oliver stood looking out the window.
"If someone told me 7 years ago that I'd be looking at Oliver as CEO I would have laughed." She said, Oliver turned and smiled.
"Destiny Monroe, Rumor had it that you were in Sydney." He said. Destiny laughed and shook her head
"Not even. I wish." She said walking to stand next to him. He became very serious,
"I tried calling you, I needed you. Where were you?" He asked tears forming in his eyes. Destiny frowned
"Gothem. I was working with Bruce Wayne."
"Wayne Enterprises? What were you working with them for?"
Destiny laughed.
"Its actually a pretty funny story. I found a scientist who was trying to make a serum that would save someone on the brink of death or immediately after they died, I convinced Bruce to invest in it. Doctor Barnes had called the re-spawn serum, like from halo or whatever. His dream was for it to work just as fast as it did in video games. Any way last year, Gotham was terrorized by a asshat called Bane who destroyed the lab and killed doctor Barnes. also it turned out that Talia Al Ghul was with him, a vigilante that worked with Batman killed her and asked me to research the league of assassins, I found out Malcolm was apart of it so I began researching him, well I found out about the undertaking, so I took the only vial of the re-spawn serum that survived the attack and asked her to come to starling city to make sure none of my friends died, I didn't think I had to worry about you or Tommy but laurel, she was always so stubborn. I didn't think she'd have to use it on Tommy."
Oliver stared at her confused, taking in what she was saying,
"So you're saying...?" He asked,
"She's saying she saved my life." Tommy said walking in, destiny and Oliver turned in shocked, a hand print covered his cheek, "yeah Laurel didn't take it so well,"
Destiny rushed over to check out Tommy's cheek, she asked Felicity nicely to get Tommy some ice. Oliver frowned as he watched his two best friends they moved in sync, Destiny stopped fretting over Tommy after he physically stopped her, she apologized and turned to Oliver.
"do you want to go to dinner tonight Ollie, so we can talk?" she asked; Oliver smiled and nodded glad that his best friends were back. He quickly walked over to Tommy and pulled him into a man hug, Tommy grinned and returned the hug.
"Now I must go speak with my father about getting my job back. You coming Tommy I'm sure he could find something for you too." Destiny said; Tommy laughed and nodded before following her to the door. She turned back to Oliver and grinned.
"Don't forget, tonight at Del Toro's at 6." she said; Oliver nodded as they left. Felicity quickly rushed in a confused look on her face.
"So uh how is Tommy Alive?"
