Thank you for such amazing response! I really did not expect it!

Adela: Thank you! Hope you like this as well.

cmtaylor531: Thank you! Hope this is good enough too!


Oliver wanted to spend at least a few more minutes staring at the faces he knew would disappear soon. But being the protector of Star City meant that somewhere, somebody would think of getting back to him.

"Oliver, incoming!"

Oliver broke out of is trance as he heard the footsteps behind him.

"Hood up!" he said. Nobody went against his wishes. As five hoods were drawn down, five arrows were pulled out of their quivers and as soon as men appeared in the turning, five years were shot with exact precision.

As every single man fell down with a groan, Oliver turned to face the other Arrows. "We need to get moving."

Nobody protested as he moved out. Following him, all four made their way towards the exit.

"Ollie?" Oliver heard Thea speak as he moved out. "What was that about Tommy?"

"I will explain thing once we are out of this place Speedy." He muttered, before turning swiftly.

"Speedy?" he heard is mother-no, Moira's doppelganger- speak up. "Oliver, please tell me you have not got your sister involved here."

Oliver turned to face the woman who was standing just behind him.

"I would love to, but it won't be the truth."

"Oliver!"

Oliver ignored the cries of everyone as he walked out. He didn't really have time to explain Thea's involvement in is team right now. He needed to get to the base and he needed to do it fast.

"Felicity, get William out of there."

"As much as I would love to Oliver," Felicity whispered, "He is asleep. And he is a sweetheart when he sleeps. I don't want to wake him up. And I am not exactly strong enough to carry him."

Oliver gritted his teeth, moving out. He faced no more soldiers, courtesy of his team members, obviously.

As soon as he walked out of the building, he was surrounded by his three team members.

Everyone froze at looking at the others, except Oliver himself.

"Man, I need to contact Curtis again." Johan muttered, "I am having hallucinations."

"You are not having hallucinations," Oliver muttered.

Roy cocked his head. "So there just happens to be five Green Arrows? I didn't know we had added more members."

"Roy Harper-Is that you?"

Oliver turned to face his father's doppelganger. Thankfully, he had neither taken off the voice modulator nor taken off the hood.

"Um, yeah?"

"I thought you retired."

Thea shook her head in annoyance. "Ollie, what were you saying about Tommy?"

Instead of answering, Oliver turned to John. "Is the place clear?"

"Yeah."

"Great. Let's go to the lair. We will talk."


As eight confused people walked in the lair, Felicity greeted everyone with a smile.

"Rough day?"

Oliver grunted as he pulled off his hood and walked forward to put down his quiver and bow. Thea, Roy and John moved to the other side enough to get a clear view of everyone.

All the other four Green Arrows pulled down their hoods. Everyone had the same look of confusion.

Everyone's reaction varied. Thea's eyes widened as she clutched on to Roy who held her protectively, looking confusingly at the newcomers. John turned to look at Felicity who had the same look of surprise as him. Oliver walked to the team and shook his head.

"All right. Before any questions arise, let me get one thing straight. None of these people is hallucinations and this is not a trap for any of you. All of us are as confused as the other. So we don't really have any answers."

Everybody nodded in unison. It was clear by everyone's looks they understood the situation.

"Great," Oliver muttered. "Felicity, do we have a change of clothes for everyone?"

"Huh?" she turned to Oliver with confusion. "Um, we might have one for Tommy Merlyn-or his doppelganger. What do I call you?"

"Tommy's good." He answered with a smile.

Felicity nodded, still nervous. "Yeah, you have the same build as Oliver. Mr Queen. You, on the other hand, will be able to fit in John's clothes."

"What?" Johan turned to Felicity with confusion. "Felicity, I only have one set."

"Well, then manage?"

"I can survive in these." Robert queen supplied. "I have lived through worse."

"You don't have to." Oliver cut in, rather strongly. "I'll go home and get something. Thea, come with me please."

Thea nodded numbly, her eyes not leaving anyone of the others. As she walked towards Oliver, he himself turned to the four Arrows.

"We will discuss once you are fresh and relaxed."

"I don't think I'll be able to relax," Laurel spoke up. She looked around with interest, "I need answers."

"So do all of us, Laurel." Moira supplied, smiling.

Laurel looked at the older woman. "Do you know how weird it is to see someone you know but is not really the same person?"

Oliver pulled Thea out, sending John and Felicity a nod before disappearing into the lift.


"This is crazy."

Oliver couldn't help but agree as he pulled out a huge shirt from his collection. Thea had already gotten clothes that would fit Laurel and Moira-or at least, their doppelgangers.

"How are you sure they are not here to kill us?"

Oliver looked at Tea. She had just seen all the dead people she hadn't seen for years. Oliver really couldn't blame her for being cynical.

"I know," Oliver said with surety, getting Thea's attention. "Thea, it's going to be fine."

Thea nodded as Oliver threw her the shirt. They needed to get back fast.


As Oliver entered the lair, fully dressed, he saw a rather interesting sight.

Moira and Laurel were chatting away over coffee, still dressed in their hoods. The two woman seemed to be getting on quite well. On one side, Tommy was happily using Oliver's equipment, changed. John and Roy were nowhere to be seen.

However, the best thing he saw was probably Robert Queen talking to William. Felicity was just standing a few paces away, staring at them lovingly.

As soon as she heard the lift enter, she turned and walked to the brother-sister duo.

"Where's John and Roy?" Oliver asked as she came near them.

"They took their leave. Said this was too much for one day."

"What is going on?" Thea asked, staring at the scene.

"William woke up and saw everyone," Felicity explained. "I was trying to dig up some clothes for Tommy. He naturally got scared but Mr Queen got him to calm down and he has been telling rather embarrassing stories about you to your son. I didn't know you liked Barbie when you were young, Oliver."

"You liked Barbie?" Thea almost laughed, turning to look at her brother who was red. "Wait, so the Barbie that I found in your wardrobe was indeed yours and not Laurel's?"

Oliver refused to meet their eyes as he walked towards his son and his father's doppelganger.

William was the first one to spot him. "Hey, Dad!"

Oliver put up a smile, ignoring everyone's stares. "Hey, buddy. Having a nice time?"

"Yeah." William laughed. "I didn't know you liked cars."

"Oh he had a collection when he was your age," Robert said with a laugh. "Or at least, my Oliver did."

"I did." Oliver cut in, avoiding confusion. "I must still have it somewhere. William, why don't you go and do some work with Felicity. I need to talk to...him."

William looked at Robert and ten nodded before running off. As soon as he ran off, Robert turned to Oliver.

"I am sorry if I crossed a line, but he was scared and I had to comfort him."

Oliver nodded. Robert sighed, massaging his temples. "makes me wonder if I have a grandson back home."

Oliver felt a lump in his throat. He was probably dead in the world that Robert Queen had come from.

"Your wife would know." Oliver supplied. He couldn't say, mom or Moira.

"She would, yes. If she was alive."

Oliver felt an ache in his heart. A feeling of dread he had not felt in a long time. Handing over the clothes to Robert, he said, "Freshen up. I am sure we have things to talk about."


So, I am open to idea. What theories and stories do you ahve for all teh Green Arrows?
