I smiled as I jumped over to the next roof with Canary. "Hold on, I need a short break." I stopped and looked back at her. "I can't believe I just ran that far."

"Well congrats. You did." She smiled at me and I looked off the roof over the city.

"It's so nice up here, almost peaceful." Canary stated and I found myself agreeing with her. We sat under the full moon, watching over our city.

"I have to agree with you, dearest Black Canary." I spun around and saw a man wearing League garb. I couldn't help but groan. Could my past just disappear? "Briana, your father requests your presence in Nanda Parbat."

"That's not happening. I'm too busy cleaning up his mess. The city still needs help, even 2 years after his earthquake."

"He figured you would say that." Assassins started coming out seemingly nowhere.

I smiled, ready for some action. "Ready for this Canary?"

"Oh yeah." She smiled. We both jumped towards opponents at the same time.

We were getting to the last few standing assassins. I kicked one in the head and broke another one's leg. Brutal, but it's what they deserved. I grabbed the last one by the hood and picked them up. "Genesis, wait!" I stopped moving at Canary's cry.

I put the person down and ripped their hood off. "Oh, Nyssa, I am so sorry. I had no clue it was you."

She shook her head. "I am unharmed."

"Can I ask why my father wants me in Nanda Parbat so badly?"

"Nobody knows. He is a very secretive man."

She was lying but for now I let it go. "When are you supposed to leave?"

"I have until morning to return with you."

I sighed and looked at Canary. She knew what I was thinking and nodded at me in agreement. "Stay with us in our new place." Canary offered as she sat down on a downed assassin's back.

Nyssa's brow furrowed. I sighed. "It's an old warehouse. I converted half into living quarters and the other half into pretty much a giant vault to train in."

"A vault. Is it big enough to hold all 8 of them?" She looked at the assassins.

"Plenty big."

I threw the last person in the vault and sealed it shut. "How will they breath?" I took her around to the other side and showed her a control panel.

"I had oxygen tanks put in." I turned a dial to compensate for the number of people inside. "So, why does Malcolm want me in Nanda Parbat so badly?" She tried to look confused. "You know why, I can tell."

Canary looked slightly upset by her lying. "Nyssa, don't lie to us. Please."

"The flower Oliver spoke of in your trial, he got that information from Merlyn. He only told Oliver in exchange for your return."

"Wait, let me get this straight." I laughed a little. "My boss, of sorts, went to my evil father for information to get me out of prison just so I would be returned to him to be imprisoned and tortured in Nanda Parbat?"

"Yes."

I laughed even harder. "Oh, Oliver. And I'm guessing he didn't even hesitate to take the deal."

She looked ashamed. "No, he did not."

I turned around to look at Laurel. She looked pissed. "You are not going back there. You just got another chance at life. It's not fair that your hard work is thrown out of the window."

"No, it's okay. I'll go. Now, unfortunately, my father has a lot of power. You don't need the League coming after you guys again." Her face fell in disappointment. "Hey, I still have a little time before we are supposed to leave."

"Can we use that time to kill Oliver?"

"Forget Oliver. I think we should go clubbing. I want to party one last time before I am gone."

"Gone?"

"Briana Merlyn will just morph back into Mari Jacobs. He knew about the flower meaning he has it or knows where to find it. So when I'm crazy again, please put an arrow through my head." I asked to Nyssa who hesitantly nodded. "But, let's not even think about that. Let's go party!"

We were having fun. That was something that I had been missing for so long in my life. Granted being a hero was pretty fun, that crazy part of my life was gone for tonight. Tonight I was an average person. "Nyssa, dance! You deserve to have fun! Blow off some steam." I took her hand and led her out on the dance floor with Laurel not far behind.

"I do not know how to dance like you." Laurel stood in front of her and kept her arms and body moving.

"Just follow the leader." Nyssa started copying Laurel and it didn't take long for her to loosen up and start dancing like she was having fun. Someone tapped on my shoulder and when I turned around, I gasped. "Thea!"

"Hey sis! What are you doing here?!"

"It's heroine fun night, good thing you showed up! Come on!"

"I told Ollie I would join him for training!"

"Screw your brother! Let's go!" I started dancing again and she couldn't help but smile and join in.

Once the party started dying off, we sat at the bar and just drank. I was the only one not drunk, a downside to Mirakuru, although Nyssa was doing a wonderful job at trying to hide the alcohol's effects. "Man, I am so glad to have super friends! Get it? Super friends cause we're superheroes. Well not you, Nyssa." Thea's words were slurred.

"No, I understand. But I don't understand how these drinks make my mind fuzzy and affects my balance. And my speech is funny." Laurel smiled and put an arm around her shoulder.

"Allow me to introduce vodka!"

I slammed my shot glass down. "Another round of shots please! Give us something strong!" The bartender laughed but went to get the drinks. Before we could count down and do the shot, someone grabbed my arm and pulled me off the bar stool and away from the bar. I finally absorbed Diggle's image and frowned. I knew this was going to be a not so fun conversation. But why should I ruin the fun for the others. "Go ahead guys! I'll be right back!" I shouted toward my friends at the bar.

We were a good distance from the bar before Diggle turned around with anger on his face. "What the hell do you think you're doing?"

"What do you mean?"

"You can't get our team drunk."

"Well you and Oliver did a pretty good job protecting the city by yourselves for like a year."

"Why tonight?"

"Did you know your best friend is giving me over to Malcolm Merlyn?" Diggle sighed. "So I'm having fun with my friends while I have the chance to be me. You know what Malcolm is capable of. You guys should start worrying about the return of Killer Prime."

"We can't. We still need you for..." His voice trailed off as he looked at me.

"Wait, what are you talking about? You need me? For what?"

"Barry is really the one that needs you. He needs you to infiltrate a criminal orginization."

"Now you tell me? Why didn't Oliver think of this before he turned me over to my father?"

"He did what?" I turned around and saw Thea staring at me, disappointed. "Why doesn't he want you in our lives?"

"Who in their right mind wants a broken assassin, Thea. It's okay. Don't hold this against Oliver."

"But you'll be Killer Prime again. I was just getting in a good place in terms of my shrinking family."

"I'm sorry. You guys deserve a break from the league." I checked my watch. It was almost 6 am. "I have to go. Nyssa and I have to leave soon."

Thea grabbed onto me and held on tight. I hugged her back hesitantly. "I love you Briana." She pulled away and I frowned as I collected Nyssa and left, glancing inside as most of team Arrow stood there watching me with somber expressions.

The plane ride was quiet aside from Nyssa's hangover. Nanda Parbat was just as I remember it from when I was tortured and from the time I spent training all those years ago. I was guided by a large number of assassins until I was in the chamber that contained the Lazarus Pit. My father was standing above it as the assassins forced me to my knees. "We have brought the prisoner as requested."

"No, she's not a prisoner. She's your leader." My brow furrowed.

"What game are you playing Malcolm?"

"I'm not playing one." He walked down the steps from the mystical pool and he stood in front of me. "You are the heir to the demon."

"That's a joke."

"No, it isn't." He pulled his sword from his side, almost like he was anxious. "You're the most powerful of my children, the one with the potential to be a great leader."

"What about Thea? She's clever and she's a hero."

"This job isn't meant for a weak hearted hero. This job is for someone who is willing to do anything to keep balance."

"Too bad Tommy isn't in the running for the job." Malcolm turned to me in anger and left a deep cut along my face. "Oh that's right, you killed him doing what you thought was right. How long before we bury Thea's body?" He kicked me to the side and kneeled next to me as I laid on the ground. He grabbed hold of my face and forced me to look into his eyes.

"You cannot get away with saying what you want anymore. You will follow my exact orders on how to live, train, and kill until you learn your place. I'm not Slade Wilson, I will not let you do what you want as long as the mission gets done. Do you understand me?" I didn't say anything. "I said do you understand me?" I shook my head free and got up, slamming my head into his. He backed up but put a hand up for the other assassins to stand back. I ran forward to grab hold of his head. He ran me through with his sword but it only made me pause for a second. I threw him to the ground. He kicked me in the knee and it snapped. I ended up on the ground again and he pulled his bow and shot me in the shoulder and in my throat. "I will make you into Killer Prime once again." He pulled a blue powder from his pocket and he blew it into my face. I felt it settle on my face, making my heart rate increase.

A fire ignited inside of me and I ripped the weapons from my body. I forced my leg to straighten out and it healed. I jumped up and let out a nasty snarl as I jumped toward Malcolm. "I'm going to kill you!"

"Stop!" His voice made me pause. "You will do as I say from this moment on."

"Why should I?"

"Because together we will save this world from the horrors of humanity."
