"Why did we come here to contact Sara?" John asked as they approached a building.

"Because we don't know if the Legends are still in the present and if they aren't we can contact them here." Oliver said.

"What makes you so sure about that about this place?" Rene asked.

"Remember that Time Bureau organization Sara told us about while she worked with us?" Oliver asked, since Sara had rejoined the team briefly before she'd left to reunite the Legends.

"Yeah?" John asked.

"She and I found their headquarters months ago here 4 months ago." Oliver said as they entered the building.

"Hello, can I help you?" the woman asked.

"I'm looking for Rip Hunter. Is he in?" Oliver asked.

"I'm afraid that you're at the wrong place." the woman said nervously.

"Cut the crap. My name is Oliver Queen. I know you know who I am, and I know that this is headquarters of the Time Bureau. So tell Director Hunter that I want to speak with him now." Oliver said in a not so veiled threat.

"Come with me please." the woman conceded as she showed them in.


"What's going on here, why did you bring outsiders to this level?" Sharpe asked the secretary as they entered the common room.

"They demanded to see Director Hunter and considering that this Oliver Queen, I think it's best we do what he says." the secretary said.

"You honestly think I'm scared of the Green Arrow?" Sharpe asked, looking Oliver in the eye.

"I think you should be scared of what Sara will do to you if you kill me. Besides, from what I've heard, history kind of needs me to stay alive." Oliver said as Rip approached them.

"And since the last thing we need is a war with the Legends, agent Sharpe, I'd recommend standing down." Rip said as he quickly intervened.

"Rip Hunter. Sara's told me a lot about you." Oliver said as he then proceeded to punch Rip in the face.

"I deserve that." Rip said as Oliver helped him up.

"Yeah you do." Oliver said, since Sara had told him about the American Revolution.

"So, I assume that you didn't just come here to punch me. Can I help you something Mr. Queen." Rip asked.

"Yeah, are the Legends still in the present?" Oliver asked.

"Why?" Rip asked.

"We need the Waverider's future medical tech to patch up a few members of my team." Oliver said.

"Fortunately, the Legends are still 2017, apparently Professor Stein wanted to be there for his daughter's wedding. I'm sure you can contact them." Rip said.

"Thank you." Oliver said as he, John and Rene showed themselves out.


After Oliver called Sara, she'd agreed to use the Waverider's tech to heal both John and Thea.

"Thank you for doing this." Oliver said to Sara as they entered Thea's hospital room.

"My pleasure." Sara said as she looked at Thea.

"How are we going to get her out of here in enough time for the Waverider to save her?" Oliver asked.

"I think I can help with that." Barry said as he sped into the room.

"Barry, you're back." Oliver said with a grin as he hugged his friend.

"Yeah, I've been back for a few weeks now. Sorry we didn't call to let you know, but things have been a bit hectic in Central City." Barry said.

"It's fine, same could be said for here in Star City." Oliver said.

"The waverider is all prepped, so whenever you're ready Barry." Sara said and Barry nodded as he carefully picked Thea up out of the bed, which disconnected her from all the machinery and sped her away.

"How'd you pull this off?" Sara asked Oliver as they waited for Barry to come back for them.

"I got Dr. Schwartz to approve her being transferred to Star Labs in Central City, since Caitlin was able to bring Barry out of his coma." Oliver explained.

"How's Laurel doing?" Sara asked.

"She's adjusting." Oliver said.

"And what about you?" Sara asked.

"What?" Oliver asked.

"Oliver, I know you and I know that you still have feelings for her. So why are you settling for Felicity?" Sara asked.

Oliver sighed before saying "Because she deserves so much better than me."

"True, but she doesn't want better. She wants you. She always has. And now you have a second chance with her. Don't waste it." Sara said.

Before Oliver could respond, he felt himself being pulled at the speed of sound and suddenly he was on the Waverider, standing next to Thea's cot, where some sort of blue ray was scanning her.

"What's going on?" Oliver asked.

"Gideon, what's the status of Thea's injuries?" Sara asked as Barry sped her in next.

"I've managed to heal 45% of her body, but due to the extent of her injuries, it will take a little time for me fully heal her." Gideon said.

"Copy that." Oliver said as John and Laurel joined them.

"Gideon, see what you can do for John." Sara said.

"Right away captain." Gideon said as John sat down on the chair and let Gideon do her thing on his arm.

After a few moments, the scans stopped and Gideon said "I've repaired all the nerve damage that Mr. Diggle suffered, he shouldn't be experiencing any more issues."

"How do you feel man?" Oliver asked.

"Good as new. Maybe better." John said.

"Great, because I could use back as Spartan." Oliver said.

"I'm in. We've almost got the old team back now that Laurel's alive and I'm back in the game." John said and Oliver nodded.


Thea opened her eyes feeling better than she had in a long time.

"Hey Speedy. Welcome back." Oliver said with a smile.

"Ollie. What happened?" Thea asked.

"When Chase blew up Lian Yu, you got caught in the blast. You survived, but Thea, you were in a coma for almost 6 months." Oliver said.

"Where am I now?" Thea asked.

"You're on board the Waverider. We brought you here since the medical tech was probably the most assured way to make sure you pulled through." Oliver said.

"So, I'm good as new?" Thea asked.

"Well, I'd recommend taking it easy for a few days, but then yes, you should be good as new Ms. Queen." Gideon said.

"Great. So, what else have I missed?" Thea asked.

"There's someone who wants to see you." Oliver just said with a smile as the doors to the med bay opened and Laurel entered.

"What is she doing here?" Thea asked.

"It isn't Black Siren Thea. It's really our Laurel." Oliver said.

"Laurel, is that really you?" Thea asked.

"It's really me Speedy." Laurel said with a smile as Thea hugged her.

"I missed you so much." Thea said to her surrogate big sister.

"From I heard, you did a good job staying strong, especially for my dad." Laurel said.

"I knew you wouldn't want him to waste his life away because of you, so I did what I had to in order to make sure that he'd make you proud." Thea said and Laurel smiled at her.

"And he did. And so did you." Laurel said and Thea smiled.

"Come on, let's go home." Oliver said.

"Wait, do you have some real clothes for me to wear?" Thea asked.

"Gideon took the liberty of fabricating you some." Laurel said as she handed Thea the clothes.

"Thanks." Thea said as Oliver and Laurel left the med bay to let her change.

"You don't seem as happy as I thought you'd be right now." Laurel said.

"Yeah, I just can't stop thinking about William. I wish that he'd understand why it is I do what I do." Oliver said.

"That's why once you issue a press release about me being alive, I'm going to talk to him, since considering the whole reason he exists is because you broke a promise to me, I think I'm the best one to handle talking to him, since I'm the world's leading expert on dealing with you breaking promises." Laurel said and Oliver chuckled.

"Fair enough. It would be easier if Samantha was still alive. Even when I was there for William, I wasn't much help to him with things like his homework." Oliver said.

"Well, then it's good thing that I was the top student in our class." Laurel said.

"Are you offering to help me raise my son?" Oliver asked.

"Would it matter if I was?" Laurel asked, wondering if they were finally moving in the direction she wanted them to.

"Absolutely." Oliver said as he moved in close to her and gently kissed her lips, which Laurel reciprocated, feeling like she might burst from happiness right now.

They were so wrapped up in each other that they didn't hear the doors open and Thea walked out to see her brother and Laurel kissing. Tactfully not saying anything, Thea just smiled as she slipped out of the room and past them, happy that Oliver and Laurel (who had honestly always been her preferred choice of Oliver's girlfriend over Felicity), had finally found their ways back to each other.
