12 Years in the future
Felicity's POV
Oliver and I look at each other. We always dealt with threats, but now we had to worry about three children who completely depended on us. Stephen, Olivia and Emily Queen were the result of our fast marriage so many years ago. Stephen was conceived on our honeymoon and Olivia and Emily were a huge surprise. We only expected one baby during the whole pregnancy young little Em hid from every sonogram behind her sister.
William moved out four years ago and hadn't bothered to come home since then.
As much as team Arrow had always given anything and everything in battle to make this city better, it just never fully finished. And now their greatest enemy yet had learnt about their children.
"What are we going to do Oliver," grumbled Diggle worrying about his son and daughter. I am sure you all remember that Diggle's daughter, Sara, became a boy, John Diggle Jr, after Barry created Flashpoint. Well baby Sara was born three months after Stephen.
Thea too had given birth to a beautiful baby boy named Roy.
Yes she did name after his father.
Now you must be wondering, how did that happen if Roy left?
Well here is your answer, I hacked into some dark web and found a strange user who sounded too much like he knew me personally, so I stocked him. When I found out it was Roy I didn't tell anyone except Oliver, but I invited him to our wedding and apparently him and Thea had too much to drink and well things happen.
Roy never found out about his son, before he left again this time leaving no trail behind, not even digital footprints for me to follow.
I am pretty sure he is in a third world country somewhere out there.
"I don't know, but we have to find something soon. Every minute we waste is another that all of our children are in danger." Barry whom had just arrived with Caitlyn, Cisco, Wally and Iris.
Yes it wasn't just the children of team Arrow, this revolved around all of us. Legends of Tomorrow had already solved their problem by keeping their kids in a time no one would find them and they wouldn't cause trouble.
Team Supergirl sent their children to another planet temporarily.
And well us we were still trying to figure things out "Should we try and contact William, you know to keep him safe and to ask for his help." Oliver stated looking at the floor.
"NO! I will not let you put your sons life in danger. Whomever is after us I don't think they know about William yet, but if they see any of us contact him, they're going to know that he is someone of importance." I retaliated.
"But if we don't tell him he runs the risk of still getting found out and being in grave danger." Oliver replied starting to get angry. "Why can't you understand Felicity, he is in trouble I was the mayor of this city for over four years. My private life wasn't private. If they know that Stephen, Olivia, and Emily are my kids, then they also know that William is my first born."
"Guys calm down!" Thea says stepping in.
Over the years the one recurring fight me and Oliver had was about William. Whenever I suggested for him to give him some sort of punishment for being disrespectful or rude or lying or mistreating his siblings Oliver would always defend him saying I had no right because I wasn't his mother.
There was even a time after Stephen's birth in which I told Oliver that I needed his help in raising our son, because all his time was spent as the Arrow,being the Mayor, or hanging out with William, and he told me that I was being silly and that I was just jealous for not giving birth to William.
"No! I will not calm down, I've been holding it in for too long. You know what Oliver, go tell him, I am through. When we got married you promised that William was both of our priorities, but throughout our marriage you have been repeating and repeating the same thing that He is not my son and my opinion doesn't carry any value when it comes to raising him. So I will not interfere in what your decisions are." I said before I left running out of the Arrow Cave.
I walked around Starling City crying and when I was done I went back to solve the issue at hand. Right now mine and Oliver's marriage was not priority saving our kids is.
I walked in to a tense feeling in the room.
I looked at Oliver and at the man next to him whom I could barely recognize.
"Hey William! Come here. How have you been? Oh my gosh I missed you so much." I said smuggling him against me in a hug.
"Hello Felicity. I've missed you too. I've been good, sorry I haven't come home in so long."
"It's okay."
"We found a solution while you were away." Cisco says bringing me out of my hug.
"What is it." I saw Barry look nervous and a little baffled.
Curtis whom had barely spoken all day answered. "We're going to send the kids back to when you guys had just come back from the island. William will stay here and temporarily join team Arrow, until the enemy is defeated. As for the kids, Kid Flash and the Flash here can take them using Cisco's new gadget."
I sighed I didn't want us to do this.
Time travel is to dangerous if the presence of our kids in the past affects the future to much then this timeline could end up completely deleted. Or worse they, our children, could be deleted. Then what purpose would it be to have sent them back.
"I know what you're thinking, but we have to do something, and fast. This is the only way we can keep them safe." Dinah said.
I looked around the room at the faces that had been with me for such a long time.
"Okay guys let's do this. William can you bring the kids from upstairs."
"Alright!" an excited yell from Cisco.
His daughter is just as bad as him if not worse, I pray for younger Cisco that doesn't even know who he marries.
Caitlyn on the other hand had a son that she named him Jack Frost. Julian was kind of against the name, but it doesn't matter.
And lastly but definitely not least Wally had three daughters with Jesse.
"We're here mommy!" that my dears is my little beast, Olivia, always taking all the attention, while her sister like me likes to work behind the scene.
"Guys you're about to undergo a very important and dangerous mission. I know you guys are all diligent, smart, caring children, but you guys have to realize that this isn't a joke. Now when you get to the past you can not change things from happening. If you know that someone is going to die you guys can not change that. Destiny will take it's course either way, but please try to avoid many changes. Have a good and safe trip guys, good luck." Oliver said with his face hard as stone like he would put it when he knew he was going to be let down.
I saw everyone speaking to their kids and saying goodbye to them so I decided to do the same.
"Guys take care of each other and try not to fight. To where your going a lot of things will be different. So have patience. I love you guys so much. I am going to miss you." I say as I cry holding the three of them close to me.
"Mommy don't cry we'll meet again soon, I can feel it." Olivia says. I smile at her as tears roll out of my eyes.
"We will honey, we will."
"Mommy why aren't you and daddy coming with us?" my small little fragile flower asked.
"No Em, daddy and mommy have to work here so that you can return soon." Her blue eyes that were always so easy to read filled themselves with tears and it broke my heart.
"Now Stephen, you have to take care of your sisters okay? You're the eldest so I am counting on you."
"I will mom."
"I love you Sweetheart."
"We love you too," he responded while he sat down on his time traveling chair.
All fourteen kids were ready to leave by now.
"I love you guys," I heard Oliver tell the kids for the first time in a long time, while looking at our three little miracles.
"Whenever your ready." says Barry while looking at Wally.
"On your marks." Iris yelled.
"Get set" said by Curtis and Cisco with a smirk.
"Go," yelled Oliver, and soon the room was full of red and yellow streaks, but a soon as it started, it ended. And where our children had once sat there was just an empty space like in my heart.
I broke down and Iris came to my rescue while also breaking down herself.
The greatest experience in life isn't all the abnormality in our lifes. Our children are the most wonderful creation that truly deserves being that experience. Becoming a parent changed my life forever.
I looked up and there they were.
Barry and Wally had returned.
