I'm sorry this chapter is so short promise next chapter will more than make up for it.
Argus safe house
Night
Conner was in his bed, fast asleep. Then, a loud noise, like a bang, woke him up. He sat up in his bed, fear coursing through him as he heard the sound of gun shots and screams followed by slashes. Then it was quiet save for a pair of footsteps that seemed to echo throughout the house. Then, the door to Conner's door was thrown open and Prometheus stood in the doorway.
"Hello Conner," He told him, "your mother wants to see you."
Star City
Later
Star City was in chaos as gang bangers attacked, firing at civilians and police officers as they drove around in their cars at high speed or on foot. Suddenly, two blurs, one red and one yellow, sped in and suddenly, the gang bangers on foot had on guns. They blinked before the blurs sped over to them. If anyone would have blinked, they would only see Flash and Kid Flash standing over several unconscious gang bangers.
"Kara, you're up." Barry said over the comms.
Kara flew down and landed in front of the cars, creating a large crack in the road. Kara then punched one car in the front, making it stop. Kara's eyes glowed as two beams shot out of her eyes, hitting one tire on another tire and melting it. One wheel down on the car caused it to swerve and pull to a stop. As the gangbangers got out of their cars, Barry and Wally sped up behind Kara as she crossed her arms.
"So, you wanna do this the easy way, or the hard way boys?" Wally asked.
There was a moment of silence before the gang bangers threw their guns down and punt their hands up. From above on a rooftop, Oliver watched, remembering another time.
Starling City, three years ago, a few weeks after The Siege
Night
A gang of bank robbers were making their getaway in a van when an arrow flew out and hit the front of the van, stopping them. The got out and looked up to see The Arrow and Roy, in his new suit, standing in their way.
"This is gonna be fun." Roy grinned and Oliver had to repress a smile at his enthusiasm.
"Stay focused." Oliver ordered and Roy nodded.
"Of course." Roy said before they fired.
Now
Oliver was broken out of his musings by his comms unit ringing. Oliver tapped his chest where his comms was built in.
"Go." Oliver ordered.
"It was a good idea to have Argus help out with the gang bangers, between us and them; we've almost got all of them rounded up." Cisco told him.
"Any sign of Talia and Prometheus?" Oliver demanded.
"Well, actually, there's been a development." Cisco began hesitantly and Oliver became unnerved by the tone in Cisco's voice.
"What kind of development?" Oliver demanded.
"Promise me you won't shoot the massager." Cisco said nervously.
"What kind of development?" Oliver demanded more forcibly.
Argus safe house
Later
Lyla stood in the Argus safe house, staring down at the dead bodies of the operatives she had assigned to guard and protect Oliver's son. Feeling someone behind her, Lyla turned around and saw Oliver, his hood down and mask off. The two silently stared at each other for a moment, each noting that the other seemed to have aged years. That was really no surprise, considering what had happened.
"What happened Lyla?" Oliver demanded.
"Roy happened. The security taps show him bursting in, killing my operatives, and then taking Conner," Lyla explained and Oliver swore, "Why would Talia want Conner? Didn't she send him to you in the first place?"
"Yes, she did. And I don't know why she wants him, but whatever it is, it can't be good. I need to find her and him and soon." Oliver growled.
"And then what Oliver?" Lyla asked and the two stared at each other intently.
"I'll do what I have to." Oliver said after a beat before turning and walking out.
Unspecified location
Same time
"Why hello my sweet boy." Talia cooed at Conner, who was tied to a chair, running a hand over his chin as he turned away from her as best he could.
"Why did you take me? You disowned me, gave me to my dad? What could you possibly want with me?" Conner demanded and Talia chuckled.
"All in good time Conner, all in good time." Talia said before standing and turning to Roy and Savitar, who was not wearing his armor.
"So, everything's in place then?" Savitar said and Talia chuckled, Savitar noting the insanity entering her voice.
"Yes. You know what to do. It's time for my plan to reach its full fruition." Talia said, both Roy and Savitar noting the insanity in her eyes.
