Part 17

"That is great news Carla. Tell Cait that when Barry is up to it they should come visit. I want to talk to them about something anyway. Love you too."

Oliver hung up his phone and looked at his team.

"Barry is awake." Said Oliver

"That's good. Caitlin was getting worried about him. Mandy couldn't even cheer her up when we were last there." Said Laurel

"That is good. I mean I haven't met your sister's boyfriend or anything. But I did meet Caitlin a couple times just in passing." Said Felicity

"Now for tonight's mission. What do we got?" asked Oliver

"There are reports that the Chinese Triad has been hijacking FEMA trucks carrying medical supplies to Glades General Hospital, as well as food and water for the pantry." Said Diggle

"Then we stop them. The Triad needs to go. They are destroying this city as much as my mother and Merlyn." Said Oliver

"There is a shipment heading to the Glades in an hour." Said Felicity

"Then it's time we suit up." Said Oliver

Ten minutes later Oliver, Laurel and Diggle were at the warehouse watching for trouble. It wasn't long until they saw armed men going after the drivers. Oliver cursed when he recognized a woman with white hair. It was Chien Na Wei also known as China White.

"Oliver, do you know that woman?" asked Laurel over coms.

Oliver had told her the truth not long ago and that he wasn't sure if Sara was really dead or not.

"She is the leader of the Triad. Her name is Chien Na Wei. Goes by China White in western countries. She is a trained assassin and probably the most dangerous of these people. But we have something that I didn't last time I went up against her."

"What is that Oliver?" asked Diggle

"I think it's time for the Black Canary to sing."

Laurel jumped down from her hiding place landing on top of one of the trucks letting out a sonic scream. The men and China White fell to their knees covering their ears. Oliver and Diggle came out of hiding and began to fight them a long with Laurel. Oliver noticing China White trying to climb into the cab of one of the trucks went after her.

"Chien Na Wei Nǐ shǐ zhè zuò chéngshì shībàile!"

("Chien Na Wei you have failed this city!") said Oliver

"Oliver, you know Chinese?" asked Felicity

"Not now." Growled Oliver

"You think you can stop me? You might but there is someone else that you will never see coming." Said Chien Na Wei In perfect English.

"Let them come. I will stop them and anyone else from bringing down my city." Said Oliver

It wasn't long before the members of team Arrow had the Triad taken down. The trucks pulled out of the warehouse loading area just as a team from ARGUS showed up. Oliver glared when he recognized the director Amanda Waller. Diggle didn't look pleased to see her either.

"Mr. Queen, you could have killed Chien Na Wei and no one who have batted an eyelash." Said Waller as the Triad members were loaded into a transport.

"I made a promise to someone I love that I would only kill is I had no choice. I didn't have to kill Wei. I am not your pawn any more. If you go near either of my sisters or their friends or anyone else I care about I will put an arrow in your heart. Do I make myself clear." Said Oliver

"I will put a bullet in your head if you threaten to do anything to Lyla." Said Diggle

"Very well. But just know Mr. Queen if Dr. Snow does anything but help the police with her new gifts she will make the perfect addition to Task force X." said Waller walking off.

"Everyone return to base." Said Oliver

Once everyone returned to the foundry Oliver turned to his team.

"Ollie what was that bitch talking about?" asked Laurel

"You weren't the only one affected by the particle accelerator explosion. Caitlin has powers. Cold powers." Said Oliver

"What do you mean cold powers?" asked Diggle

"She can shoot frost out of her hands and make very sharp icicles to stab people with."

"You sound like you know the second part from experience." Said Felicity

"I do."

"What is Task force X?" asked Laurel

"It is a group of prisoners that ARGUS has that in exchange for time off their sentence go on missions that are deemed too dangerous for regular agents. They are also are known as the Suicide Squad." Said Diggle

"Because Waller has a mico bomb implanted into the base of their neck. If they step out of line Waller blows their head off." Said Oliver

"Which is why you want to keep Caitlin as far from that woman as you can." Said Laurel

"Do you blame me? Waller threatened to kill Caitlin and the rest of my family once. She did it to force me to work for her during my missing years. Laurel, that is why I admitted to not knowing if Sara was really dead or not. For all I know Waller is forcing her to work for her. Or she could have been picked up by some other organization." Said Oliver

"Right now I think the only person in ARGUS I would trust is my ex Lyla Michaels. She hates Waller nearly as much as Oliver does." Said Diggle


Roy Harper was walking home through the Glades when he saw a woman being attacked by two gang members. Now Roy was no saint but he was not the type to hurt a woman. He ran over to the attack pulling out a tire iron he carried with him for protection. He hit each of them in the leg giving the woman time to get away. Unfortunately for him they came after him. The next thing he knew there was a high pitched sound and a blond woman dressed in black beating the gang members. Just as quickly as the mystery woman appeared she disappeared.
