Chapter 21

(Thursday. 4/24/16. 1:45 a.m.)

Maya had woken up screaming in a cold sweat next to Roy not knowing where she was. She sprang out of the bed and noticed Laurel and Ray sleeping in the bed next to her. She calmed down when she heard a knock at the door. The three that were amazingly still asleep stirred as Maya quietly went and answered the door.

"Is everything ok?" Aquaman asked her.

"Yeah. I just forgot where I was." Maya replied.

"Are you going to be able to get back to sleep?"

"Probably not."

"Follow me." Aquaman said as Maya started to follow him. The group had asked Aquaman to keep them safe and hidden after A.R.G.U.S. had found out they had hacked their system. Aquaman did and even agreed to help them fight if A.R.G.U.S. found out where they were. He also granted them the ability to breathe underwater so they could live temporarily in Atlantis. The group still did not know why Oliver was sent on a mission in Vietnam with the suicide squad. Aquaman led Maya into an area which had a few stone benches overlooking the beautiful underwater city. "Did a dream wake you?"

"How did you know?"

"Just a hunch. Do you want to discuss this dream?"

"I saw my friends Farkle, Oliver, and some redheaded girl that I don't know being burned alive."

"I know you friends and their companion can take care of themselves."

"Their screams were so real." Maya said as she shivered. Aquaman put a comforting hand on her shoulder.

"My people and I will do whatever it takes to find your friends and bring them here safely."

"Thank you." Maya said as she yawned.

"None needed. Now get some rest." Aquaman said as he walked her back to her room.

(End Segment. 4:00 a.m.)

"Let's keep moving." Oliver said as he woke Farkle and Cupid up. They were carefully making their way through the jungles of Vietnam trying to make it to safety. A.R.G.U.S. agents had tried to kill them yesterday with no reason. Oliver thought they did it because they found what they were looking for. All of this had started over a tiny computer chip. The chip had a program on it which could easily disable an entire nation's internet leaving the entire country open for a deadly invasion. Oliver was under the impression that he was stealing it for the safety of America, but Amanda Waller as usual had a hidden agenda. It was stolen from A.R.G.U.S. because they intended to undermine Congress and use it against Russia as means to start a war.

"This is bullshit." Farkle said as he pushed a branch out of his face.

"Stop complaining. We have to keep moving."

"I still haven't gotten my thank you for taking those damn bombs out of our heads."

"I said thank you." Cupid said as she twirled a heart on Farkle's arm.

"I know, I know." Farkle said as he pulled his arm away.

"Thank you." Oliver said regretfully.

"Try not to sound so excited." Farkle said as gunshots started to assault the trees a few feet in front of them.

"Get down!" Oliver screamed as a bullet ripped through his chest.

(End Segment. 4:00 p.m.)

"Any news on Oliver?" Ray asked Laurel as he walked onto the balcony where Laurel was leaning against a rail.

"Aquaman and a few of his men left a few minutes ago to follow up on something." She replied.

"Vietnam?"

"They didn't say. This doesn't feel right."

"What?"

"Being here. We should be out there helping find Oliver."

"You know that's not safe."

"It's better than staying here and doing nothing."

"It won't better if you wind up dead."

"What if he's already dead?"

"Don't think like that."

"It's hard not to."

"Look, I'm scared to but we have to be strong."

"We need Oliver." Laurel said as she embraced Ray in a hug and started to cry.

"He'll be back soon." Ray said as he wrapped his arms around her.

(End Segment. 7:00 p.m.)

Oliver, Farkle, and Cupid were fighting a losing battle near the edge of a beach in Vietnam. A.R.G.U.S. agents had them with their back against the ocean with nowhere to go. Farkle shot as best as he good while trying to hold Oliver up because Oliver had been shot once in the chest and twice in the leg. Cupid kept taking down 2 agents with each arrow she let fly but that wasn't enough. Just when they thought all hope was lost a giant wave of water rushed out from the sea and wiped out every single A.R.G.U.S. agent. Aquaman and four of his soldiers appeared from within the wave.

"Mr. Queen. It's nice to see you again." Aquaman said as he walked over to Oliver.

"It took you long enough." Farkle said as Oliver collapsed onto the beach bleeding.

"How bad are his injuries?" Aquaman asked as he knelt down next to Oliver.

"2 bullet wounds to leg and 1 in the chest."

"Bad, but he will not die."

"How'd you know where we were?"

"Your friends will explain that once we get back to my palace." Aquaman said as he picked up Oliver and led Cupid and Farkle towards the ocean.
