"Save me, Daddy", a little girl's voice cried out.

Roy looked around the room. There was nobody there.

"Where are you?" He asked

There was a scream. "They're hurting me!"

"Lian? Where are you?"

Roy tried to shake the door handle open, but nothing happened. He pounded on the door. "Let me out of here! She needs my help!"

"He needs someone in there to help him." Prendock told her.

"He'll get through it", she answered, typing on the computer. "It'll just take a couple of painful days."

"You brought him in here to recruit him for something, didn't you? Saving the man in the forest isn't the end of it, is it?"

She stopped her typing for a second, and turned around to face him. "There's something coming- something big. We're going to need his help in order to make it out of it all alive."

"And it has to be Oliver Queen?" John asked

She nodded silently.

"If you're going to work with anybody, you need to connect with them somehow."

"That's not what I do", she answered. "There's no way for him to get out of there. It's a secure room. He agreed to it", she pointed out. "He knows what he's in for. If I open that door, then he'll try and escape."

"Detoxing in isolation can't be good for him."

"I have an eye on him." She insisted, turning back to the computers and typing.

She went on for ten minutes before stopping abruptly and staring at the screen, squinting her eyes slightly.

"Everything alright?" John asked

"We have company", she said idly before she continued typing. "I expected it. They're a little late, to tell be honest."

Prendock moved to leave the room. "Stop." She called out.

He turned around. "They're going to try and break in. Shouldn't Summers and I try to stop it?"

"They're not going to be able to get in anyway. Not with my tech", she said typing. "I'll go and make them back off."

"Okay", John agreed before he realized that she wasn't getting out of the chair. He waited for a moment before interrupting her typing. "I thought you were going to make them back off?"

She nodded. "I am. I don't have to be there. Not in person, anyway", she said before pressing a button. "Don't touch anything."

And suddenly, she stopped moving.

"Are you okay?" Prendock asked, looking at her. But she didn't move. He looked into her eyes. They were normally a bright green, but right now, it looked like they were glowing. She wasn't blinking, and he could see numbers flashing in there.

"What are you doing?" He asked the inanimate woman dressed in black in front of him.

She was completely still.
