Thank you to everyone who has favorited, followed or reviewed this fic so far.
I kinda wish the previous chapter had gotten more reviews but I guess reviews keep fluctuating.
The dream world is basically going to be Star City with some elements of New York City. Mainly the ones that are important in Matt's life like Fogwell's Gym and Nelson and Murdock(whose name I've changed due to a reason).
Now I won't be doing that Cyberwoman subplot in this episode. It did give us some funny interactions between Flash, Supergirl and the recruits but it looked like it was ripped from an RPG. Because those games don't make anything easy. Trust me, I've played a lot of Final Fantasy games which are awesome but frustrating because you need to do a million things to move the story one step forward. Plus, after Season 6, I'm not a big fan of the recruits and I'm enjoying writing this story more without any of them in it. The only ones I don't hate are Dinah and Rory. I don't hate Rory because he wasn't in Season 6 for the writers to ruin. I hated Dinah 6x14 onwards but in 6x23, she redeemed herself to an extent in my eyes so I don't hate her anymore but I don't like her as much as I did in Season 5.
To Chaos Sorcerer: I wrote this chapter before you reviewed the previous one. This dream world is almost the same as you thought it would be. Even with Gao's chi, the victor is debatable. Ra's has shown better feats than all the five fingers of the Hand. And if the League has Damien with magic, then the Hand is done.
Warning- Some bad language
Chapter 12- A perfect life
Oliver Queen ran through the woods. He liked the jogging a lot. His life was perfect now. He would soon be the happiest man alive.
Later, Oliver walked out of the shower and wrapped a towel around his waist. "So?" asked his partner in the shower, "How was your run?"
"I think I told you about it in the shower", said Oliver. Handing her a towel, he said, "Here you go." "How could I forget?" she said, stepping out of the shower with the towel wrapped around her, revealing herself to be Laurel Lance.
"Dinah Laurel Lance", said Oliver, "Will you marry me?"
The two kissed paasionately for a moment. When they broke apart, Laurel said, "I think I already answered that question." She then showed him the engagement ring on her finger.
"Right", he said.
"Ok", she said, "Time to get ready. My sister will be here soon."
As she walked away, Oliver watched her with a smile. He loved her so much. More than anyone else he had ever loved. She was the love of his life. They would soon be together for eternity and beyond. But in the back of his head, he felt something was not right.
In a spaceship in deep space- Oliver, Matt, Sara, Roy, Thea, Ray and John were all in suspended animation inside some weird looking pods. The Dominators had locked their real memories using their powerful alien technology and replaced them with new ones. They were currently looking into their real memories to find out something.
Matt punched the punching bag repeatedly, boxing gloves on. He also kicked it a few times. He was a fluent boxer.
"You're good", said the voice of Jack Murdock ,"But I don't think you should fight."
"I don't wanna be a fighter, Dad", said Matt, "I've told you so many times already. I'm fine being a lawyer. Boxing is just a hobby. And I need to know how to handle myself."
"That's right, son", said Jack.
Matt smiled as he put the bag and gloves away. He was happy. His life was perfect. He may not have his mother, but his father loved him and was a famous boxer. His own firm -'Nelson, Murdock and Lance' was thriving. He also spent a great deal of time with his girlfriend- Elektra Natchios. They both were madly in love. He knew he would take the next step soon. Right now, they were both just happy that their old friends from high school- Oliver and Laurel were getting married. But in the back of his head, he felt something was not right.
"You didn't have to get me a gift, Speedy", said Oliver as he held the rock in his hand.
"It's just a little prerehearsal dinner gesture", said Thea.
"Well", said Oliver, "Little is right."
"It's called a Hozen", she said, "It symbolizes reconnecting, like you did with Laurel."
"Thea, its a rock", said Oliver. "It's a very thoughtful gesture", said Thea, "From your amazingly loving sister."
"Thank you", said Oliver. "Yeah", said Thea, "That's better."
"Well", said Moira as she walked in with Robert, "What's going on here?"
"Thea gave me a rock", said Oliver as he got up.
"Let's go champ", said Robert, "You got a 6:00 appointment at the tailor's. Got to fight the traffic."
"You know dad", said Oliver, "I'm not much of a fighter. My friend Matt is."
"Tell that to the paparazzi you punched", said Thea.
"10 years ago!" he said in his defense.
"Still", she said. "Might as well be a lifetime", said Moira, "You're practically a completely different person. You both are."
"Don't start crying again, mama", said Thea, "Just save all the tears for the actual wedding."
"I think what your mother is trying to say is", said Robert, "That both of us feel blessed to have watched the two of you grow up."
Oliver and Thea smiled at that. A maid walked next to them, holding a vase. The vase suddenly fell. Before it could hit the ground, Oliver caught it.
"Whoa!" said Thea, "Sweet reflexes."
Oliver wondered how he had done that.
"God", said Laurel as she pulled out the suitcase from the back of the car, "How much luggage did you bring?"
She gave it to the maid who carried it up. After thanking her, Laurel said, "What do you think? You're moving in?"
"Oh!" said Sara as she got out of the car and looked at the Queen Manor, "I wish."
The two sisters then hugged each other. "I missed you", said Laurel happily. "I missed you too", said Sara with equal happiness.
Sara then looked at the locket Laurel was wearing. It had a bird-like symbol on it. "This is beautiful", she said.
"Thanks", said Laurel, "Ollie got it for me."
"Is it a bird?" asked Sara. "Its a canary", said Laurel. Sara suddenly felt something wrong in the back of her head and let go of the locket.
"Sara?" questioned Laurel, concerned for her sister. She hugged her tightly and said, "It's just that I missed you." Laurel hugged her back.
Matt knocked on the door and it was opened by Elektra. "Elektra!" he said, "Hi."
"Hi Matthew", she said with a smile. The two kissed passsionately. "So", he said, "We're ready for the date?"
"Yes,", she said, "You have a problem with that, Matthew?"
"No", he said ,"I love it. And I must say, I prefer being called Matt but I love it when you call me Matthew. It sounds really sexy coming from your mouth."
"That's because we are the sexiest couple ever", said Elektra, "We always do better things." The two kissed again and walked together to the restaurant where they were going for their date.
As they sat in the restaurant, Elektra said, "It feels really good to be here."
"Its our reward", said Matt, "For all the things we have been through to get here."
"That's right", she said, "I love you, Matthew."
"I love you, Elektra", he said. The two then kissed passionately there.
Suddenly, Matt's mind was assaulted by memories.
The two made love in Fogwell's Gym.
Matt couldn't see anything but he could hear everything around him. He held a dead body in his hands. It was Elektra. He was crying bitterly at her loss.
Matt and Elektra kissed as the building in which they stood crumbled around them.
"Matthew?" asked Elektra in a concerned tone, "Everything all right?"
"Yes", said Matt, "Its just that I love you so much."
"Aw", said Elektra, "That's so sweet."
The two kissed again.
"The tux looks good on you", said Robert.
"Never really felt like my thing", said Oliver.
"Maybe a suit and tie would suit you better", said Robert. Oliver knew the direction in which his father was taking the converstion.
"Dad, come on", complained Oliver.
"I get sworn in as Mayor in less than 2 months", pointed out Robert, "And I don't have time to find a replacement CEO for Queen Consolidated."
"What about, uh, Walter Steele?" asked Oliver.
"The board won't back him", said Robert, "Besides, QC is a family company. It should stay in the family!"
"Dad", said Oliver, "I want- I want to make my own name. I don't just want to rely on yours."
"Oliver, if you don't do it", said Robert seriously, "Then the board is gonna push to accept Ray Palmer's buyout offer."
"I.." Oliver said but stopped as he noticed something. In front of him was a skyscraper which he had never seen before. The words 'Smoak Technologies' were on the front. As he stared, someone bumped into Oliver's shoulder.
"Excuse me", said Oliver.
"Excuse yourself!" said the man as he pulled out a gun, "Watches, wallets, phones. What are you deaf!? Do it now!"
"Alright", said Robert trying to sound calm, "Just take it easy."
"I'll shoot your asses off", threatened the man.
"Hey!" roared Oliver as he protectively stepped in front of Robert, "Get away from him."
Suddenly, an arrow knocked the gun out of the mugger's hand. A man dressed in a green suit with a hood looked down on them. There was another man with him who had the exact same clothing, except it was red in color.
The green one had shot the arrow. The red one jumped down and punched the mugger, knocking him out. He then stuck an arrow in the mugger's shirt and the Queens watched as he shot a zipline arrow that carried him away. The green one did the same and went off too.
"Are you alright?" Robert asked Oliver.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine", said Oliver as he recovered.
"You could've been killed", said Robert angrily, "Why would you do that?"
Oliver had no answer.
Matt dropped Elektra home and was walking back home. He took an alley. A strange man was standing with his hands in his pockets, watching him.
Suddenly, another man came in front of him with a knife. The man from before came behind him, carrying another knife.
"Hello lawyer", said the one in the front, "We need money."
"And a favor", said the one from behind, "We need you to get our friend out of prison."
Matt suddenly grabbed the hand of the one in the front and punched him. He followed by grabbing him and pushing him on the man behind him. He had done all of this very quickly.
As he ran, a third man leapt in front of him and pointed his knife right at his throat, "Wanna play? Huh?"
The one who had been punched said, "Maybe he needs some motive to help us. Let's go carve his girlfriend."
"Don't you dare?" said Matt angrily.
"Oooh", said the man in front of him in mock fear, "I am so scared."
As the other two men moved towards him, there was a gunshot and the man who had his knife to Matt's throat fell down, dead.
Matt saw a figure in the distance, holding a gun.
"Run!" said the other man, "Its that nutjob!"
The two ran. The gunman shot one of them on the head, killing him. The only one left now was the one whom Matt had punched. The gunman shot him in the back and he fell.
The gunman came into full view and Matt looked at him. He had a rough face. He looked like he was a soldier from the army. His eyes had a murderous glare in them. He wore a trenchcoat with open buttons. Matt looked at his vest. It had a symbol of a skull.
As he walked past Matt, he muttered, "One batch. Two batch. Penny and Dime."
Hearing those words, another memory assaulted Matt's mind.
He couldn't see but he could hear everything around him. He had taken down some men. He was on his way to rescue someone. As he neared his destination, he heard some gunshots and a voice muttering, "One batch. Two batch. Penny and Dime."
The gunman then turned the last man around and made him lie on his back. "No-no", begged the man, "P-please."
The gunman smashed his chest with his foot, making him cry out in pain due to broken ribs. The gunman then put the gun in his mouth and pulled the trigger, killing him. He then shot Matt a glare and ran off.
"Mom is gonna freak out", said Thea after hearing what had happened.
"Which is why she doesn't need to know", said Robert.
"She probably wouldn't believe the part about the men in hoods anyways", pointed out Thea.
"Actually", said Robert, "It was your brother who came to my rescue. You're quite the hero, son."
Oliver suddenly remembered somethings.
A boat sank and Oliver was drowning until Robert pulled him onto a life raft.
Robert had a gun to his temple and Oliver heard a gunshot.
Oliver gave Thea a hozen and she smiled.
Oliver and Laurel kissed in his room.
"Oh, my God!" said Laurel as she walked in, "I heard what happened. Are you ok?"
"Yeah", said Oliver trying to calm her, "Hey. Hey."
The two hugged each other as he said, "I'm fine. I'm fine."
As they broke apart, Laurel suddenly flickered. She was wearing a hospital gown and looked pale. She was about to die.
Next moment, Laurel looked normal again. "Oliver?" she asked, "Oliver? Are you okay?"
"No", said Oliver, "I'm fine. I-I just need some air. I'll see you at the restaurant."
Matt returned home and saw his father talking to a man.
"Matt!" said Jack. Seeing him made another memory assault his mind.
A little Matt's stick fell from his hand as he knelt beside a dead body. It was his father. "Dad!" he muttered. No response. Tears formed in his eyes as he said, "Daddy! Daddy! Daddy! Daddy!"
"This is Roscoe Sweeney. My manager", said Jack pointing to the other man.
Roscoe got up and shook hands with Matt.
"Nice to meet you", said Matt. "Nice to meet you too, son", said Roscoe, "Your father tells me you're a fluent boxer too."
"Yeah", said Matt, "But I'm not interested in making it a career. Thank you for helping my dad become what he is."
"I have made a lot of guys' dads who they are", said Sweeney.
Matt's mind was assaulted by another memory.
Matt could not see but he could hear everything."Well, I hate to break it to you, son", said the voice of Roscoe Sweeney, "But I have killed a lot of guys' dads." "Let me help you", said Matt, "He hit hard. Like this." Matt then started punching him repeatedly while Elektra laughed happily and mercilessly beside him.
"Everything alright, son?" asked Jack in a concerned tone.
"Yeah, yeah", said Matt, "I just need some air."
Matt then walked out of the house.
"Captain Lance!" said Oliver as he walked up to him.
"Ollie!" said a familiar voice.
Oliver turned to see Matt.
"Hey, Matt!" said Oliver, "How're you?"
The two were assaulted by the same memories at the same time.
"Grab onto me", Green Arrow said to Daredevil.
Matt said, "My name is Matthew Murdock and I'm Daredevil."
Oliver said, "My name is Oliver Queen. I'm known as the Green Arrow."
Matt and Oliver sparred with escrima sticks.
"What if he doesn't?" asked Matt. "I have you", said Oliver.
Matt and Oliver shook hands in an office while a press conference watched them.
"Matt?" asked Oliver.
"I'm fine", said Matt, "We'll all attend your wedding tomorrow. Where's Tommy?"
"Tommy says he'll be late", said Oliver, "I think he'll arrive in the middle of the ceremony. But he'll still do his job of best man."
"I was just heading out", said Quentin as he walked up to him.
"Do you have a minute for me?" asked Oliver.
"I need to ask something too", said Matt.
"Yeah", Quentin said to Oliver, "I should have called earlier. Detective Hilton told me about what happened tonight. You okay?"
"Uh, yeah", Oliver said.
"Good", said Quentin, "Because we caught the guy." Quentin lead them to an evidence board with a sketch of the man in the hood.
"Because of the guys with the bow and arrow?" asked Oliver.
"Guys?" asked Quentin, "There's only one with a green hood. We call him the Hood."
"There was another man with him", said Oliver, "He had a red hood."
"Red?" questioned Matt. "Yeah", said Oliver, "You know something."
"No, no", said Matt. But the mention of red color brought some memories into him.
He flipped to avoid shots. He threw one of his sticks. It hit the shooter, knocking him out. He then caught the stick and stood in an intense way.
"You took that away from me", shouted a big man whose voice was familiar, "You took everything. I'm going to kill you." "Take your shot", he said to him as he kept his club inside. The man roared and charged at him. He ran towards him and jumped. He then managed to flip the man on the ground.
He punched a man repeatedly in a kitchen in the restaurant. As he ran after another man, he heard the cooks beating the thug.
He grabbed one of the men assaulting an old man and aimed a gun at him, "Drop the gun!" he said to the others, "Drop it." As they backed off, he asked the old man, "You okay, sir?" "Yeah", said the old man. "Get in your apartment", he said to him, "Lock the door." "What about you?" asked the man. He smashed one of the lights with his chain and said, "I'm good." As the old man went inside, he knocked the thug out by hitting him on the back of the head with the gun. He pointed the gun at the others and pulled the trigger, revealing it was empty. He smirked, threw the gun away, smashed another light with his chain and attacked.
He flip kicked a man who was sent flying off the railing.
He wrapped his club around the same man, rolled away, and then used it to throw the man down the building.
He ran to save a woman he knew from being stabbed. He threw his club at the attacker's hand, knocking his knife away. "No way", said another woman in the background.
"Matt?" asked Oliver, concerned.
"Nothing", said Matt, "I'm fine."
"The Hood is some sort of Vigilante", said Quentin as he pointed at the sketch, "But if we've got the time right, your rehearsal dinner is practically now."
The picture brought some memories to Oliver's mind.
Quentin showed him a sketch of the Hood.
Oliver stared at his scars in the mirror.
Oliver looked at an old steel factory that belonged to his family.
Oliver looked at a bow in his hand while he stood inside the factory.
"Freeze!" yelled Quentin as he stood in an intense way.
"Oliver?" asked Quentin, concerned.
"Do you have any leads on who the...Hood...might be?" he asked.
"This is the last thing you should be thinking about the night before your wedding", said Quentin, "Or is that what's going on?"
"What?" asked Oliver turning towards him.
"You getting cold feet?" asked Quentin.
"No!" Oliver quickly assured him, "Not at all, I promise."
"Good", said Quentin, "Because I would hate to have to shoot you for breaking my girl's heart. The paperwork would be hell."
The three laughed before Oliver said, "Maybe I'm a little more shaken by the mugging than I thought."
"Well, you know what'll fix tha?" asked Quentin, "Having a few drinks at your rehearsal dinner. I'm buying, come on."
He tried to lead Oliver out of the station.
"Actually, Captain Lance", said Oliver, "You go on ahead. I'll meet you there."
"You sure?" asked Quentin.
"Yeah", said Oliver.
"Oliver", said Quentin, "There's something I wanna say. Look, um, when you and Laurel were kids, you know, I-uh. Well, let's face it, I didn't like you much. I thought you were just a rich, entitled punk."
"I was", Oliver admitted.
"Since then", said Quentin, "You've grown into one hell of a man. The kind of guy I'm proud to have as my son in law. See you at the dinner."
"See you there", said Oliver.
Matt saw another evidence board and saw a sketch of the gunman from before.
"Who's that?" he asked.
"That", said Quentin, "Is a nutjob. He's a vigilante too but he kills all criminals brutally. His name's Frank Castle. Everyone calls him the Punisher."
The mention of him made some more memories assault Matt's mind.
"Bang!" said the voice of Frank as he fired at him.
He thew a club at Frank's hand and knocked a gun out of his hand. He then flip kicked another thug and used the club to hit him. Frank picked up a hammer and tried to smash another thug's head. He snatched the hammer away. He threw his club at another man behind them, knocking him out. "No killing", he said to Frank. "Altar boy!" commented Frank as he punched the thug unconscious.
"I gotta say", said Frank, "Sometimes, sometimes I think you really just might be the Devil." "Sometimes I think I might be, too", he said.
"See you around, Red", said the voice of Frank. Matt simply nodded in appreciation.
During this time, Oliver looked at Star City's map and was assaulted by more memories.
Everyone applauded and he shook hands with them.
Oliver talked to a young man who was his political strategist.
Oliver gave a speech.
An elevator opened as Oliver, Laurel, Thea watched along with a dark skinned man and another blonde.
Oliver wondered what this all meant. Matt and Oliver walked off to different places to get answers.
"He's not coming", said Laurel to Sara at the rehearsal dinner.
"Don't worry", said Sara, "He'll be here. You know Ollie's never been on time for anything in his entire life."
"You didn't see him earlier", said Laurel, "He had this look on his face like- like he was backing out."
"No way", protested Sara, "He loves you."
Laurel said, "He just looked like everything that he knew was wrong."
Sara took drinks for both of them and said, "I'm pretty sure that every guy has that look the night before the wedding."
"You know", said Laurel, "There was a time when I thought the two of you would actually...hook up."
"No way", said Sara, "You know I prefer girls."
As Sara went off to talk to her friend, Ray Palmer arrived and said, "Ah. Ms. Lance. Hi. I'm Ray Palmer." The two shook hands as he said, "A business associate of Oliver's father. I just wanted to say congratulations."
"Thank you", said Laurel, "It's really nice to meet you."
Calling Sara, she said, "This is my sister, Sara."
As Sara and Ray looked at each other, their minds were assaulted by memories of each other.
The two looked at each other on the Waverider.
They strapped their seat-belts on as the Waverider took off.
The two talked to each other wearing 40's clothes.
"Ray!" yelled Sara, tossing something at him which he caught.
Ray looked at Sara in the Waverider and pondered over her words.
"Have we met before?" he asked her.
"No", said Sara, "I think I'd remember."
"You just seem...very familiar", said Ray.
"Excuse us", said Laurel. "Yeah", said Ray. Laurel and Sara then walked off.
Oliver entered the building he had seen earlier in his head. He touched a wall and an elevator opened up.
He went into it. It went downwards. When it opened, he was in a place filled with tech. "Oh, wow", he said as he looked around.
"What the hell?!" said a blonde as she rose up.
"Uh...hi", she said to him. Then she ran around and yelled, "We have an unauthorized entry!"
The green hooded man and the red hooded man descended.
The green one tried to punch him but he somehow managed to block. He himself wondered how he had done that. The Hood smacked his face with his bow and he was knocked out cold.
Oliver woke up and was on the med table. His vision returned and he saw the blonde woman along with the two hoods.
"What're you doing here?" asked the Hood. "How the hell did you find this place?" asked the other one.
Oliver gasped and got up from the table. "My name is Oliver Queen", he said, looking at them.
"We know who you are!" said the Hood angrily. "Everybody knows you!" said the red one.
"How did you find this place?" asked the Hood.
"Better question is why", said Felicity, "He's getting married tomorrow."
"Not relevant", said the red hooded man.
"Get out", commanded the Hood.
"Wait", said Oliver.
"Get out!" yelled the Hood and grabbed him by the collar. "Wait! Wait! Wait!" said Oliver as more memories assaulted him.
He saw the dark-skinned man standing next to a car.
The man drove his car as he was his bodyguard.
The two shook hands.
"Your name is John", said Oliver, "John Diggle."
The Hood let him go. Oliver then looked at the red hooded man and got more memories.
"Meet Roy Harper", said someone as a young man's image appeared on the screen.
"You saved my life", said Roy to the Arrow, "Made me realize it wasn't much of a life."
"You're Roy Harper", he said to him.
Oliver got more memories of both of them.
Oliver and John sat on opposite sides of a table in a restaurant and laughed.
Oliver teaches Roy how to shoot.
The Arrow and the Arsenal fought a man who wielded boomerangs.
Oliver watched as John married the woman he loved.
Oliver and Roy hugged goodbye.
John, wearing a helmet gave him his hand and he took it. "My brother needed me", said his voice.
Oliver took off the thief's mask and was shocked to see Roy Harper's face.
Oliver and Roy hugged goodbye again.
John looked over at the body of a man who resembled him. He looked broken.
The Hood and the Red Hood took off their hoods and masks in spite of the blonde's protests. They were John Diggle and Roy Harper, respectively.
"How do you know all this?" asked John.
"I think we've all met before", said Oliver, "John! You were my bodyguard. Roy! We were friends."
"You must be thinking of my brother Andy", said John, "He's in personal security."
"We have never met", said Roy.
"You were in the military, John", said Oliver, "And Roy, you were orphaned at a young age."
"105th airborne out of Kandahar", said John, "Did a lot of things back then that I'm not proud of. Came back here to... Atone, I guess."
"I signed up with him", said Roy, "Because I wanted to make a difference and make sure that what happened to me does not happen to anyone else."
"Uh, John, Roy", said Felicity, "Stranger danger. Might want to ease up on the info dump."
Oliver looked at her and more memories assaulted his mind.
"Felicity Smoak?" he asked as she turned around to face him. The two had met for the first time.
Oliver looked at her in a red dress as he walked up to the table for their first date.
The two kissed in a hospital.
The two made love in Nanda Parbat.
He held her on the road as she was bleeding.
He put a ring on her finger.
"Felicity", he said, coming back to his senses, "This isn't right. I don't think that any of this is right. I don't think that you're the Green Arrow. And I don't think Andy's alive. John, I think you killed him."
John angrily grabbed Oliver and threw him to the ground, pointing an arrow at him.
"I think he's having some kind of psychotic break", said Roy.
"You're right", said John before turning to Oliver and saying, "Go back to your family, your fiancee, and your fancy house! And you're gonna forget about all of this!"
He picked him up by the collar and said, "Felicity's right. You've got everything man!"
He pushed him into the elevator and said, "Stop trying to throw it all away."
The elevator closed and went up but Oliver was convinced that he was right.
Matt looked at the old steel factory owned by Queen Consolidated. It was abandoned and no one came here. But something had convinced him that there was something going on here.
He managed to get in and was horrified to see dead men hanging on meat hooks. "What the hell!" he said in shock.
And then he gasped as he saw Frank torturing two men who were hanging on meat hooks but alive.
"So you think mugging and murdering women in the Glades makes you strong?" yelled Frank, "Answer me, motherfucker."
"Those women are weak", yelled the huge criminal, "They're pathetic. Begging for mercy is the worst kind of weakness."
Frank roared and hit his nose with his gun, breaking it.
"Frank!" said Matt. Frank turned to face him and said angrily, "You're that lawyer from before, aren't you? How did you find this place?"
"What're you doing?" asked Matt.
"I'm going to kill them", he said angrily.
"But why?" asked Matt, "They should be sent to prison. They don't deserve to die."
Frank angrily yelled, "So that they can do the same goddamn thing again?"
Matt got another memory.
He was tied up by chains while Frank stood in front of him with a criminal begging at his feet. Frank yelled "So that they can do the same goddamn thing again?"
"You know about this man?" he asked as he pointed to the smaller man, "He sexually abused his own daughter."
Matt looked at him and felt like he had met him before.
Matt was wearing a blindfold and angrily punching a man. "If you touch your daughter again", he said to him, "I'll know." He then punched him repeatedly till his lower jaw broke.
"And this big man", he said pointing to the other one, "This is Daniel Brickwell. He mugs and kills women because he thinks they're weak. They all deserve to die. And I'm gonna kill 'em all."
"Why're you doing this?" asked Matt.
"They killed my family just because they had witnessed a mafia execution", said Frank angrily, "And now I'll execute these motherfuckers as payback."
He then pointed his gun at Brickwell, ready to shoot him. Matt suddenly picked up a big gun from the ground and threw it at Frank, disarming him of his gun. He wondered how he had thrown it so skillfully.
Frank shot him a murderous glare. If looks could kill, Matt would be dead ten times over now. Matt thought he was going to die.
Frank angrily grabbed him and dragged him out yelling, "You just couldn't let it be, could you? You just couldn't let it be."
Matt got another memory.
Frank grabbed him and dragged him out. They were on a ship. Frank yelled, "You just couldn't let it be, could you? You just couldn't let it be."
He threw Matt out of the factory and said ,"If I see you around here again, I'll shoot you, you son of a bitch."
Matt got up and walked away but he knew now that something was amiss.
In case you're wondering, Matt can see in the dream world. I felt bad about not putting Frank in my story. This was my way of putting him. Unfortunately, the only Arrowverse character who got to meet him was the dream version of Danny Brickwell. But I hope you liked seeing him. His appearance is one of the things that can make Matt remember. This is his only appearance in the story unless I think of something else.
Matt's mind resisting the Dominators' alternate reality is the reason he saw Frank and Roscoe. That's also the reason he is regaining his memories faster and in more vivid description than Oliver and the others.
Roy, John and Felicity are using the new base in the dream world so I think Frank can use their old base.
Roy didn't get much to do in here but I think I will give him something to do later in the story.
I wanted to put Tommy, Foggy and Karen in here too but with the additions of Frank, Elektra, Jack and Roscoe, I couldn't fit them in.
Frank's backstory in the dream world is taken from the comics.
Please review. I always appreciate your feedback. It would mean a lot. I really want to know more people's opinions on the previous chapter and this one.
