Hey loves, so for this chapter I used a part from the ep. 10 promo because I thought it would be perfect for Oliver trying to find Felicity. 5 more days till Arrow is back on! This one is a little shorter than the couple last ones, but I will post the next chapter hopefully sometime tomorrow. Enjoy :)
I do not own Arrow or it's characters.
Oliver sits on Felicity's couch looking around her small living room he's been sitting there for an hour or so. Her door still has bullet holes through them and there are some feathers on the floor from what's left of a pillow that was caught in the cross fire.
'She must have been so scared and I…I wasn't there for her. I should have been. I should have been there for her for what she was going through with Barry. I should have been there to protect her.' Oliver thought, the guilt flowing through him.
He got up and walked into her bedroom, it was dark but the moon was shinning enough light in to see. The bloodstain was still there on the floor. Oliver walked over to the window looking at the nearby buildings, 'they must have been watching her to know where she lived, where she'd be.' He felt the buzz of his phone in his pocket and answered.
"Oliver, I've got something." Diggle said on the other end.
Ten minutes later Oliver was coming down the stairs in the lair, "Have you found someone for me to shoot yet?"
Diggle smiled slightly, "I think I have. I'm still trying to figure out everything on here but I've got something. It isn't much, but it's something, someone. The day before Felicity was taken she got a strange phone call when I took her to lunch, while you were in that meeting, no one was on the other line and after the fourth hello she hung up and didn't think anything of it." Oliver was starting to get impatient, muscles tensed. Digg continued, "Until now. I used Arrow's phone to call Detective Lance for him to look into her phone records and he gave me all of the recent numbers that called her. The same odd numbed that called her a couple days ago at lunch has called her 3 other times before that. I found Felicity's phone tracing program-thing, and was able to find out the name of the guy. It may be nothing, but-"
"Where is he?" Oliver interrupted, already suiting up and grabbing his bow not wasting any time.
Oliver sat on the roof of the adjacent building to the man he was going after. He didn't even get his name, he didn't want to know it, the only thing on his mind was finding Felicity.
He aimed and shot an arrow that broke off at the end before it reached the building sending the tip in through the half open window of the man's apartment and into his neck, knocking him out. Oliver shot another arrow and swung through the man's window, glass shattering around him as he broke though.
A half an hour later Oliver had the man strung up by his feet hanging on a rooftop and smacked him across the face. The man woke up squinting his eyes trying to gather his surroundings, he starts to panic when he realizes he's hanging upside down and becomes dizzy from all the blood rushing to his head and the slight sway of his body. His eyes widen when he sees Arrow standing in front of him.
"The man in the mask who is he!?" Oliver yelled out.
He gives Arrow a strange look, "What man? I don't even know what the hell you're talking about!" he spat out.
Oliver walks away and stops ten feet away from the hanging body, aiming and shoots an arrow, missing. "That was on purpose, if you value your life you'll tell me who he is!" he says in his deep hood voice.
"I don't know I swear!" He whimpers, but Oliver isn't buying it.
Oliver retrieves another arrow and shoots again, this time sending the arrow into the man's hand. He screams a blood-curdling scream.
Oliver aims the next arrow.
"Okay! Okay!" The man says and Oliver lowers his bow a bit. "I don't know who he is, I've never seen him, I just work for him. There was a mission we did, we had to snatch some broad, an in and out job. He said he had specific orders not to hurt her, it was me and two other guys, but I…I just waited in the car. The bitch shot one of my guys, but she was knocked out when they brought her to the van. I took off to make the delivery, and that's all I swear!"
Oliver raises the bow, "Wait! I told you-" he was cut off by the arrow piercing through his chest.
He already knew Felicity tried to defend herself, but she had no chance if the guys who took her had the serum running through them. They would have been more powerful and the bullet she shot at the one would have barely done any damage. He didn't know who the man was in the mask, but now he knew that him and Slade are working together.
