"So what was so important that I had to come here?" Quentin asked, since while he had suspicions after passing by Laurel's freshly unearthed and empty grave, he didn't want to dare to hope, but as soon as the elevator doors opened, he found Laurel waiting for him.

"Hi dad." Laurel said simply.

"Laurel. It's really you this time isn't it?" Quentin asked.

"It's me dad. I'm back." Laurel assured him and Quentin pulled his daughter into an even tighter hug than John did.

"Dad, can't breathe." Laurel choked out as her father let her go.

"Sorry, I just can't believe it." Quentin said.

"Yeah, how exactly is this possible?" John asked.

"Can you please get Oliver and Thea here. I don't want to have to repeat this story more than once." Laurel said.

"Well, I can get Oliver here, but not Thea." John said.

"Really, why not?" Laurel asked.

"Because she's in a coma at Starling General." Felicity said bluntly.

"Ok, I'm going to need details about that, but first, I'll explain everything once Oliver arrives." Laurel said.

"I'm already here." Oliver said as he entered the bunker, looking like he was ready to tear her apart.

"Oliver, it's not her. It's our Laurel." John said.

"John, we've heard that one before. Any test you could've run, the results could've been faked. You want me to believe that it's really our Laurel, than I need something more convincing." Oliver said.

"Like what?" Laurel asked.

"Tell me something that only our Laurel would know. Like what I said to you the night after I rescued Walter." Oliver said.

Laurel nodded and began without a second thought.

"I asked you to tell Tommy that you didn't have feelings for me anymore. But you said no and when I asked you why, you said it was because it wouldn't be true and you have enough lies in your life already." Laurel said easily and she knew that she had Oliver convinced as he walked up to her and hugged her, though not as hard as the other men who did it.

"It's a miracle." Oliver said.

"Now can we finally find out how this is possible?" Felicity asked.

"Sara's team had captured a criminal with the ability to bring people back to life. Including Kuasa and Damien Darhk. So when they arrived in 2017 for a reason that I didn't ask, Sara forced her prisoner to bring me back to." Laurel said.

"Wait, did you say Damien Darhk is alive again? Why the hell would anyone want that bastard alive?" Oliver asked.

"Oliver, Sara's team is going to handle it. Right now, I believe you have other things to worry about." Laurel said.

"Good point." Oliver said as Rene and Dinah came down to the bunker.

"What the hell is she doing down here?" Rene asked as he pulled out his gun, only to have Dinah beat him to it and use her sonic cry to send Laurel flying back.

"Dinah, what the hell?" Oliver shouted as he and Quentin ran to help Laurel up.

"What are you talking about? I just saved your lives." Dinah said.

"No you didn't. You're lucky she's still alive otherwise it would've ended yours." Oliver said.

"Okay, would someone please fill us in?" Rene asked.

"Sure, Rene Ramirez, Dinah Drake, meet Laurel Lance from our Earth. After all, why do you think that she hasn't killed any of us or used her siren scream to deflect your Canary Cry Dinah." John said.

"Wait, that's really your Laurel?" Rene asked.

"Yes and I think that once my hearing returns, you'd better have a good reason for me to knock you on your ass." Laurel said loudly.

"It'll pass, but we thought that you were Black Siren." Rene said as he held out his hand, which Laurel shook.

"Understandable, but next time, ask before you blast." Laurel said as she shook Dinah's hand next.

"Agreed. But anyways, it's an honor to meet you. Especially considering it's your mantle I took on." Dinah said.

"Yeah, I figured out that out when I heard John say Canary Cry," Laurel said before turning to Oliver, "you training a new Canary?"

"I promised you I wouldn't let you be the last Canary and I keep my promises." Oliver said.

"Thank you. But now, I need a new codename." Laurel said.

"That's good to hear, considering right now I am seriously short staffed." Oliver said.

"Really, you look pretty well staffed here." Laurel said.

"The only people in the field are myself, Rene, Curtis and Dinah. Felicity stays here in the bunker and John's on the DL." Oliver said.

"What happened?" Laurel asked.

"6 months ago, the city's current big bad, Prometheus, abducted everyone I care about and took them to Lian Yu. There was a standoff that led to him killing himself and triggering a deadman's switch, which blew up the island. While most of us got off without a scratch, John was caught in the explosion and sustained nerve damage, which has affected his ability to aim and shoot, Thea was caught in the blast and is now in a coma and Samantha's dead." Oliver said.

"Samantha, as in William's mother?" Laurel asked.

"The same one. William's staying with me now and I'm trying my best to be a good dad to him, but right now he's pissed at me." Oliver said.

"Really, what did you do?" Laurel asked.

"I tried to give up being the Green Arrow for William, but that was before I found out about not only John's injury, but also that he'd been using drugs to numb the pain. After I found that out, I decided that I couldn't let John continue to do that to himself on my behalf. And honestly, the Green Arrow, it's a part of who I am. I just hope that one day, William can understand that." Oliver explained and Laurel understood.

"Maybe I could talk to him. After all, I'm pretty sure that I'm world's foremost expert on dealing with your lies." Laurel said.

"Maybe it's best if I explain things to him first, so that way he doesn't confuse you with your evil twin." Oliver said and Laurel nodded.

"We should also get to work on a press release, since Laurel coming back from the dead is probably going to be major news." Quentin said.

"I'll talk to Lyla, see if she can help put together a cover story." John said.

"Good." Oliver said.

"I think I may have a solution to John's nerve problem." Laurel said.

"What?" John asked.

"Doesn't Sara own a ship possessing future technology. I'm sure it could heal you right up. Thea to." Laurel said and Oliver smiled.

"Well, the Waverider's already patched John up before, why not now. I just don't know if we can safely transfer Thea from the hospital to the Waverider, since she's in critical condition as it is." Oliver said.

"Well then, it's a good thing we have speedsters on speed dial." Felicity reminded him.

"Good point." Oliver agreed.
