Action: Running from Danger
Felicity ran through the hallways, with Oliver hot on her heels. They'd originally been on a fast track out of danger, but plans had changed. They needed a new way out.
Felicity had gone undercover to infiltrate a tech expo. Team Arrow was looking for a tech expert; one who was likely Starling City's newest threat. Someone had been hacking into hospital records and changing important information like blood types, allergies, and medications. It wasn't a big expo, but hopefully they'd get something to keep them going; as long as Felicity stayed on task. She wandered slowly, listening, but also getting distracted by the tech.
"Felicity!" She jumped. "This is the third time I've had to get you to focus. Just see if you hear anything and we can get out of here. We'll find another tech expo for fun or something." Oliver's voice quieted in her ear.
It was at the next stand that Felicity saw a shady group whispering. She didn't catch much, but she did hear "hacking", "hospitals", "Starling", "tomorrow", and "SCHH". She could only assume that was Starling City Honor Hospital. Rushing out she spoke into the comms, allowing both Oliver and those back at the lair to hear her.
"Tomorrow. Starling City Honor Hospital."
"Got it." She just barely heard Digg reply. Now that she had overheard that she was jumpier. Hopefully no one had noticed her, but she couldn't be too careful.
"I'm out back with the car. I'll meet you out front in two minutes." She could hear Oliver getting their escape route ready. "Get yourself out of there." Felicity didn't have to be told twice; she wanted out now before anyone came up to her. She managed to make it safely and they sped out of there.
It was just barely after 9pm the next night when Oliver and Felicity entered the hospital from the roof. Felicity had her tablet of course; one that had all the hospital files downloaded on it so she could fix whatever the person had changed. Oliver was in full Arrow garb and was sneaking around carefully. They'd have to move quickly and quietly tonight since a hospital wasn't exactly a place that closed down. It didn't take long for them to reach the records room and it took even less time for them to spy the man at the computer. Felicity just barely heard the flick of Oliver's voice modulator, so she stepped back and let him do his intimidation.
"You need to stop right now." His voice rumbled across the room and the guy's head shot up. Felicity thought he groaned but she couldn't be sure.
"Oh damn. The Arrow. How ever will I escape?" The last time Felicity had heard anyone that sarcastic was with The Count. She just had to remember it wasn't him. It was someone else. The man lifted something to his lips. Oliver aimed and shot, but was just a little too late, a shrill blast echoing around the small room as the man blew on the whistle. They didn't wait around to see what would happen, Oliver just grabbed her hand and ran. Behind them they could hear the clatter of footsteps and Felicity had a hard time trying to convince herself not to look back at those people. Eventually she gave in and looked, spying at least ten people behind them, before she tripped and fell.
"Damn!" She started to yell, but Oliver just pulled her up and kept going. Eventually he pushed her ahead of him.
"Keep going, get to the car, and start it. I'm going to see if I can delay them some." Felicity was going to protest, but he stopped her. "I will be right behind you. I promise. Now go." Pausing for one final second Felicity started off down the hall, taking the curvy paths so that they couldn't find her as easy, though she always kept an eye on the exit signs. She had been going for about five minutes when she glanced back, and down at the end of the hallway she could just barely see Oliver heading her way. It didn't take long for him to catch up with her again.
"Let's go. I stopped them for a moment. We probably have a… 5 second head start." Felicity didn't hesitate this time, now that Oliver was at her side again. Grabbing his hand they rushed through the hallways, eventually making it to one of the exits. They quickly got out of there, but they knew it wasn't over. They didn't see who these people were, or who the hacker was, but they'd find out.
