Chapter 3
City Hall
Thea Queen just had a long day at the office. As the Chief of Staff of the Mayor of Star City, she has to take on most of her brother's tasks, especially knowing of his night activities as the Green Arrow. Thea was the only one left at the building and could not wait to get out.
She had just cleaned off her desk and neatly put a collection of files in cabinet before locking up her office door. Security met her at the door and walked her out of the building. She stops suddenly, she remembers that she left a file that she needed to take home back in her office.
"I'll be right back." Thea tells her security guards as she runs back inside.
She gets to her office with her keys in hand, as she grabs the door knob she sees that the door is unlocked. She hesitates for a moment, she knows she locked the door before she left. Maybe it was the janitor, she thought.
She slowly opens her office door and peeks in. Nobody was in there, but she still had an eerie feeling as though she was being watched. She saw the file on her desk and went to grab it, as she did, her assassin training kicked in as she felt a presence behind her.
Thea instinctively reached for a pen on the desk and rotated quickly in one elegant swoop, she was met by a tall, dark blonde-haired man. The man caught her wrist and pulled Thea closer to him,
"Go to sleep." The man says as he stares directly into Thea's eyes.
Thea suddenly loses consciousness and slumps into the blond man's arms.
Arrowcave
Oliver walks in and stands alongside Felicity with his hood and mask down as they watched the young woman lay unconscious in the Arrowcave cell on the monitor.
"Are you ok?" Felicity worried.
"I'm fine, his bite barely broke through the Kevlar but I still felt the pressure of it." Oliver answered. "Did we get anything on the Mikaelsons?"
"Nothing so far in the criminal database, I'm running facial recognition on our Sleeping Beauty in there…sooo," Felicity started, " are you gonna say what we're both thinking?"
"I'm not saying it." Oliver expressed.
"These people had red eyes,"
"Felicity…"
"Razor sharp teeth, tried to bite your neck…"
"Don't say it."
"We're dealing VAMPIRES!" Felicity announced, Oliver letting out a sigh at the comment.
"We've dealt with metahumans, aliens, and even Damien Darhk, who I might add, is apart of the supernatural! You're honestly going to sit there and tell me that vampires don't exist?" Felicity continued.
"We don't know what we're dealing with…" Oliver watched as the young woman started to move around a bit. The tranquilizer was wearing off, "but I'm going to find out."
Oliver walks away from Felicity, placing the hood and mask back on his head.
The young woman groaned as she started coming to. She slowly makes her way to her feet and realizes she was in a cell, also that she wasn't alone. In front of her stood a man clad in all green with a bow and quiver.
"I thought Halloween was over already." The young woman teased.
Oliver didn't let the snarky attitude bother him, but observed who he was dealing with. The young woman stood about 5'3" with long black wavy hair, she wore a black leather jacket with a gray cotton hood, a pair of ripped blue jeans and boots. She reminded Oliver of Eveyln.
"So I go from one prison to another…great. Is this how you treat someone who saved your life?" The young woman commented.
"Who are you?" Oliver asked.
"I don't think that's any of your business Robin Hood." The young woman returned.
"Tell me why you killed Mayor Landrich!" Oliver demanded.
The young woman let out a small chuckle before walking closer to Oliver, "You really think you're in any position to give demands, Green? The only reason I'm locked up in this cage is because I want to be."
The young woman places her hands on the bars in attempt to break out when the bars started electrifying, shocking the young woman and causing her to step back.
"That was about 30,000 milliamps that just went through your body. You won't be escaping anytime soon."
Oliver watches as the young woman gives him a very pissed look, he also heard a low growl alongside that look.
"You've killed innocent people-" Oliver continued
"I was defending myself!" The young woman exclaimed.
"From what!" Oliver said firmly, the young woman hesitated for a moment, "Is it the Mikaelsons?"
The woman looked at Oliver surprised, "How do you know them?"
"Who are they and why are they after you?" Oliver asked.
"Look Green, if you know anything about the Mikaelsons, you'll know that with me here no one is safe. Including you and that woman over there."
Oliver was shocked that she knew that he wasn't the only one there.
"I can hear her heartbeat." The young woman smiled, "If you let me out of here, I promise not to kill you, and I'll be on my marry way before more show up. They already know I'm here in this city, it's only a matter of time before they find me here in this cell."
"You're not going anywhere until I get answers." Oliver forced.
"You're not getting anything from me." She says.
"Then get comfortable."
Oliver flicks his bow backwards and walks away from the cage. He meets back up with Felicity sitting at her station.
"Well that was kinda creepy." She said, "What should we do?"
"Keep her here and keep an eye on her, I gotta run to the office." Oliver answers.
"Oh so you're just gonna leave me here with the vampire?" Felicity says.
"Just call me if anything happens."
City Hall
Oliver walks in, the receptionist greets him at the door with a list of things to do as he walked toward his office.
"Ok Mr. Queen, you have a conference at 10a.m. with the Board of Commissions, the files are already on your desk. You also have a charity event today at 2p.m. Deputy Mayor Lance offered to take your place if you were too busy." the receptionist told Oliver
"Tell him there's no need. Hey, you wouldn't happen to know where my sister is would you?" Oliver asked.
"I haven't seen her all morning." The receptionist confirms.
"Thank you Lindsey." Oliver told the receptionist. Oliver walks into his office and stops mid-step to see that there was someone sitting at his desk.
The person was sitting facing the window, looking out at the skyline. The person turned the chair around to face Oliver and it was a man. The man had dark blond hair and blue-green eyes. He gave Oliver a smile before speaking to him,
"Hello, Oliver."
A/N: I apologize for the delay. Got a little bit side tracked, you know, LIFE. But here's Chapter 3. For my non-Arrow viewers, Thea was trained by a group known as the League of Assassins, pretty much a group of highly trained ninjas that..well..assassinate people. For my non-Original/TVD viewers, abilities that were displayed this chapter will be explained in the coming chapters. Hope you enjoyed it, reviews are definitely welcomed. Positive or negative, I don't mind constructive criticism. Hopefully try to post chapter 4 (my favorite so far) by the end of this week.
