27 days until Supergirl - 28 days until Flash & Legends - 30 days until Arrow


"VEIL OF MIND"
(Arrow: Team, part 8 of 10)

She was sitting up now, still with the things on her head but not so laid back and relaxed, more focused. She wanted to focus now. The Legends were in danger, Sara and all of them, and this thing that had happened to her had to do with their ship. Somehow she couldn't see those two things being unrelated, and neither could the others, the further they went on.

"Alright, Thea, just think," Felicity instructed. "Don't force it, just ease into it, okay?" Thea wasn't sure just how well she knew all these things or how it worked, didn't want to ask, or hear the answer really. It had started to work, hadn't it? That was all that mattered.

"I don't understand," Quentin was looking back at her as though he might have been as concerned for her and his daughter both. "Did you see her? Did you see Sara, or…"

"It's not like that, I didn't 'see' anything, but…" Thea frowned, trying to explain. "It's just… Felicity mentioned the Waverider, and it was like… like… I don't, I can't explain, but I knew that it was important, it was vital."

"It is," Quentin nodded, "If they're lost…"

"No, not just to us, to them," Thea revealed, and there was a moment of silence, laying on the room.

"Them?" Curtis repeated. "Who's them?" Thea didn't look as though she was any better informed than him.

"The people, the… whatever it was that came looking in my brain, they were interested in the Waverider. Don't ask me how I know, that's all I've got," Thea informed the room.

"Do you think… Can you find out more?" Oliver asked.

"Well, witness me trying," Thea took a breath, resettled in her seat and closed her eyes. The others stepped aside, speaking quietly.

"So good news in all this, which I realize might not be much, but Thea doesn't seem so scared anymore, yeah?" Felicity pointed out. It was a small comfort, but she was also right on the fact that it was helpful. "What do we do now?"

"Call back to Central City," Oliver told her. "We'll find out what else they know, and we'll tell them what we've found out. They might have better luck at making some sense out of it."

And that was some relief, really. They could find out who'd gone after Thea and why the Legends. Were those same people responsible for their disappearance? Were they metas? Or just humans? Or not human at all?

They had waited a bit longer to call Barry, to see if Thea might have some more to recall and give to them, but so far there had been nothing else, nothing substantial. At one time it almost felt like she had something, but she couldn't quite latch on, like whoever had been there might have glanced in that direction for a moment but then had moved away and gone for the Waverider instead.

"Feels weird now, like trying to pick up after a break-in, knowing someone touched your stuff," Thea shuddered just a bit, hands reaching to touch the things on her head. "I don't think I'll get any more out of this, can we take it off?" Felicity and Curtis came and helped her out of it.

"I'll call Barry," Oliver told Diggle and Quentin, signalling for the concerned father to come along, knowing he'd likely want to know as soon as possible if there were any updates about his daughter and her team.
