Welcome to Star City. Don't mind the crime rate.
In a pharmacy in the Glades, a worker deviously fills a prescription. The pills are dirty...figuratively. They're small, and each one has the letter "V" etched in them.
She bottles the pills, and seals them in a bag. She takes them to the counter, where a mysterious man purchases them...with some of the best medical insurance there is; Queen Industries insurance, actually...
With that, the man sneaks out. The pharmacist lurks in the shadows, and waits for a new customer...
She doesn't get one. Instead, an archer in a green hood swings through the glass wall, smashes it, and fires several trick arrows, everywhere. Some of them pin her to the wall. She cowers and shivers, in bondage, as Green Arrow draws another arrow, and aims it at her chest.
"Regina Tyler," he says, in a scrambled voice. "You have failed this city!"
Not to break up the action, but this is Queen Manor. The CEO of Queen Industries should be getting home at any moment now...
His limo arrives. He gets out, and ascends the front steps. With a key, he unlocks the door. He scurries upstairs, and dumps his burdens. And he washes. And he sings...
Far below, his stalker stalks him. She's still in revealing lingerie. She still has a crush on him. Soon, she'll be diving in his wallet...and beyond that, his bank accounts...
In his robe, he travels downstairs. He sees a bag of drugs on the island. He smiles, and reads the note on it. The note says they need to be analyzed.
Happily, Mr. Queen dumps the pills from the bottle, counts them, and smells them. But he dares not take them. They've all got a V etched into them...and Mr. Queen is PRETTY sure he know what "V" stands for... And it sure isn't V for Vendetta...
The telecoms ring. Mr. Queen sighs, abandons the pills, and goes somewhere where he can talk and listen at the same time. Via voice command, he takes the call.
Inadvertently, and unknowingly, he's left little Isabel on the island. To her, the opening of the pill bottle is one of the biggest caves she's ever beheld. And the pills are boulders that're bigger than her. Everything's ten thousand times bigger, when you're ten thousand times smaller...
Curious, Isabel slips between the pills, and ends up inside the bottle. She smells them. Deviously, she licks them. She nearly faints. They're potent. They make her dizzy...
Mr. Queen returns, and with his giant finger, he slides all the pills back into the bottle. Tiny Isabel is broadsided several times, as this is done. As much as she'd be able to find her way out otherwise, she's dizzy. She's as good as trapped.
And her doom is sealed when Mr. Queen turns the bottle right side up. Isabel falls a long way down, and is buried beneath an avalanche of Count Vertigo's finest. At least she isn't crushed. But then, these pills are lightweight, for objects so huge...
Above, Mr. Queen traps her inside, with the bottle lid. And it only gets worse as Mr. Queen takes the bottle, and ascends into the Arrowcave…
In the bottle, Isabel is continually buried, broadsided, tossed around, and pinned by every pill in the bottle, as well as the bottle walls. On one hand, she's excited; on the other hand, sometimes the strength and size of men is scary...
In the lair, Mr. Harper greets Mr. Queen. Queen hands him the pills, and asks to have them analyzed. Harper is more than happy to do so. He's more than happy to be living in Queen Manor, after all this time.
Harper sets the bottle down, and rushes off to do some other things. Inside, Isabel plots her escape. It shouldn't be too hard. Then again, it'd be impossible for a drama queen.
Outside Queen Manor, there are woods. The woods get spooky at night, and during days with overcast skies...
Out here, from high above, a very athletic man descends, from a rope. He wears a mask that's half-black and half-orange. On his back, he carries a pair of katanas. He wears body armor, and a halter that holsters many grenades, pistols, knives, and ammo.
From here, he can see Queen Manor. Behind his mask, his eyes narrow...
