Chapter Four:
"The plan should work."
Harry walked the halls of the DEO, with Lena and Kara standing on either side of him. Yes, they had a plan, with the portal pretty much charged up and ready to function. So, far, there had not been a fresh attempt to accelerate an attack on Earth Thirty-Eight, but when it came, Harry would know it.
The trio stopped when a dark-skinned gentleman appeared in front of them.
"Well, the famous Harry Potter. Kara's mentioned a bit about you. I'm J'onn J'onzz."
Harry reached forward, and he could tell instantly that despite his human looking appearance, J'onn was something different entirely. And Harry respectfully nodded towards him, before shaking his hand.
"I'm from Mars," J'onn confirmed to Harry, as if picking up on his thoughts. "And it appears that things are picking up from the events of last year. Where a man named John Deegan was given the Book of Destiny, to alter reality. It was some kind of test by a being named Mar Novu. He is a Monitor, and he warned us that there is a greater danger than ever coming."
"This Crisis?" Harry asked.
"It appears so," J'onn agreed.
"It appears that I've missed a whole lot."
Kara closed her eyes and smiled. The moment J'onn passed the group, she leaned into him.
"You have no idea."
Yes, although Harry was beginning to figure out so. Harry, Lena, and Kara continued their trek to go and meet Nora and Alia, to verify the status of the portal and whether it was up and running. They walked a few steps forward, when they ran face to face with Alura. Harry moved towards her, but Alura cut him off.
"I'm sorry if I offended you last night by blaming you. I don't. It's just the destruction of Argo City caught me off guard."
Harry waved it off.
"Trust me, considering the circumstances, I understand."
It took a bit for what to happen on his Earth to settle in with Harry. While he was ready to leave, the dissemination of an entire planet still weighed on Harry.
Alura spent the next moment or so considering Harry, before a smile flashed across her face.
"I can see why you've attracted Kara. And I can also see that you have a much greater weight that I did on your shoulders."
Alura turned her attention to her daughter.
"You would do best to hold this one closely to you," Alura told her. "I'm going to see what I can do to help, to ensure this world does not meet the same fate as Argo City did."
Alura passed the group. The moment she did, Harry's mind buzzed. Kara picked up his momentary discomfort and she opened her mouth to say something.
"It's just my Master of Death powers flaring up again?"
"Master of Death Powers?" Lena inquired.
Yes, this required a bit of explanation.
"Harry bonded with three magical artifacts known as the Deathly Hallows," Kara said.
"It gives me a close and personal relationship with Death," Harry said. "It can be both a blessing and a curse at times. Especially in situations like this, where any number of people are close to death."
Or whatever this anti-matter was doing. Harry felt nothing like this before.
"We will avoid as many as possible."
While things like that were not cemented, Harry really did hope Lena was right. He had a feeling that they were reaching a point where much would happen before they could even stop this threat. Harry could feel the architect of this getting closer. They made preparations.
Harry, Lena, and Kara came around the corner for Harry to bump into a very familiar looking woman.
"So, we meet again?"
"Yes. I had a feeling you would survive the fate of your Earth."
"And yet, you couldn't tell me more other than vague hints. But, I should be used that."
From the other end, J'onn, Alex, and Alura entered the room. And then from seemingly the shadows, came a tall and imposing individual, dressed in some kind of battle suit. It had been very elegant and impressively made, Harry would give him that. And yet, there was something else.
"Harry Potter. My name is Mar Novu. And your survival skills are just as impressive as ever."
Harry could do nothing, but nod. He had a knack of surviving things that no one should, but still, this was something else overall.
"It's happening, right now," Kara remarked.
"Yes," Mar Nova agreed.
Harry, Lena, Kara, Alura, Alex, and J'onn all waited for the other shoe who dropped. Suddenly, several individuals appeared in a flash. Many of whom Kara had met and had told Harry about in passing.
"It appears that some introductions are in order. Oliver Queen, the Green Arrow."
The archer dressed in the green hood, appeared and looked at them. He looked steadfast, determined, and ready to fight.
"And his daughter from the future, Mia."
An attractive blonde woman swept her gaze over the entire group and looked around. Obviously she had been a bit miffed about their sudden arrival. Harry could hardly fault her.
"Barry Allen, the Flash."
Yes, Harry had known about the speedster in red, from both Kara mentioning him to him, and also through Nora's memories. Boy, would he have a surprise when Nora would pop up, no longer erased from the timeline.
"Sara Lance, the White Canary."
The very attractive and well-built blonde woman dressed in white looked over to the group. She paused, briefly, to look at Harry for a moment, as if they had met before. Although, Harry did not recall meeting this woman in his life. Harry would think he would remember someone like her.
"Kate Kane, current Batwoman."
The redhead poked out of the cowl. The woman scowled and Harry could tell that where Mar Nova pulled her from, she had not been too happy and gave him a scol in response.
"Ray Palmer, the Atom."
"Hey, everyone."
Palmer gave Harry the impression of an overgrown boyscout. Not a bad thing, just an observation.
"Dinah Laurel Lance, of Earth Two. Formerly the Black Siren, now one of the women to hold the moniker of the Black Canary."
The short-haired blonde's eyes swept down into the room. Harry almost could smell the contempt of the room directed towards Mar Harry would have loved to know that story, but he knew it was best not to pry.
"Caitlin Snow, although her meta-half, Killer Frost, will be taking over."
Caitlin, Frost, she looked around the room for a second.
"And…."
Kara gave a gasp, and everyone turned to one of the guests in the room. A dark-haired woman dressed in impressive looking battle armor. Flash and Green Arrow both looked on in surprise and confusion.
"Okay, who's the hottie in the tiara?" Sara asked.
Exactly what Harry had been thinking, almost word for word.
"My name is Princess Diana of Themyscira."
Sara nodded in recognition. Diana turned and smiled at the blonde Kryptonian in greeting.
"Kara, nice to see you again. And Kal."
Superman arrived along with the rest of the group. Diana's eyes fell upon Harry.
"And you must be Harry," Diana said. "I'm pleased to find out that Kara had been able to find you, although I regret the fact that we can't meet under better circumstances."
"A pleasure to meet you, Princess," Harry said. "And I'm Harry Potter."
Harry could see several looks. Especially from Sara and Mia, who had been eying up Harry like a piece of candy. Caitlin and Dinah were a bit more subtle with their checking out of Harry. Kate appeared to be more confused, and Harry picked up the reason why.
"Well, Kara's told us a lot about you," Sara said. "Although, you're a very hard man to get a hold of."
"Yes, nothing is ever easy," Harry agreed. "But, we do have a Crisis to get to. So perhaps idle conversation can wait until later."
"Yes, Mr. Potter," Mar Nova agreed. "It will be ideal."
"Yes, the Anti-Monitor is heading to Earth-38. Even if the Dragon has bought us a little more time."
Everyone looked at Harry. Harry just responded with a shrug, bemused more than anything else. Mia suddenly blinked, as if she had realized something straight away, but said nothing.
"Our enemy will see Mr. Potter's attempts to stop him as a challenge. And the Quantum Tower we are currently putting up, is even more so than a challenge."
Sure enough, this Quantum Tower had been in the process of being constructed.
"Wait?" Kara asked. "Why couldn't you save Argo with one of these things?"
"Because, Supergirl, they take time to construct."
"Typical," Dinah scoffed, the former Black Siren obviously distrustful of his intentions.
Kara had been about to say something, but Lena nudged her friend.
"Pick your battles wisely," Lena told her. "I'm building a transmat portal which should be able to transport everyone off of Earth-38. Although this is a worst case scenario situation."
"We should prepare for one," Oliver commented. "Will it work?"
"I'm missing one component," Lena admitted. "If any of you could give me hand in finding one of these."
Lena flashed a device on the screen. It appeared Sara recognized it straight away.
"We have what you need on the Waverider," Sara said. "I'm going to have to...go there."
"Maybe the rest of your team could give us a hand?" Kara suggested.
"I promised them no more crossovers after the last time," Sara said. "But, I'm going to need to have it cooled down before I move it. Frost, do you think you can join me in doing it?"
"Sure, whatever you need," Frost said.
"I'll come with," Harry said.
"Oh, it will be an honor," Sara said with a smile.
"Before we leave, Barry?"
"Yes?" The Flash asked.
"There's something important I need to tell you."
Harry smelled the stench of death in the room. And Nora told Harry of her father's disappearance, the reason why she had been in the past to try and save him to begin with. Which unfortunately due to Nora's inexperience and being played by a master manipulator, accelerated the countdown to the coming Crisis.
And Harry could see Barry's confusion. And to be honest, Harry could not pinpoint the stench either. Once he separated Barry from the rest of the group, he found that it was not coming from the Scarlet Speedster, who had been the most obvious suspect.
So who was it then?
"So, what did you want to tell me?"
Harry could see the Scarlet Speedster's confusion. And he smiled. This was not going to be an easy one to discuss.
"I would say you want to sit down for this, but here she comes."
"Hello, Dad."
Flash joined back, as he came across his daughter, Nora, XS, who walked around the corner. Barry wondered if this was some kind of odd trick, mirage, or the stress of the leadup to Crisis finally getting to him. Barry forgot how to articulate words for a good long minute. He stammered and stuttered and finally, he managed to make it.
"How?"
Harry could tell this would be quite the convoluted experience.
"Well, that's a very long story. But, to give you the short, when I was trying to reach Kara, one of my failed attempts locked onto Nora's energy echo, and thanks to my ability to do things that I shouldn't, I reconstructed her. I murdered the wraith who tried to correct her again, and now she's currently under my protection. Obviously, though, if you remember her, she wasn't completely wiped out."
"You would think that," Barry said. "But, trust me, I've given up trying to figure out any sort of logic regarding time travel. Especially when it regards speedsters."
Fair enough, Harry conceded.
"This is...this is….Iris is never going to believe this," Barry remarked.
"She won't, but we do have a multi-verse to save," Nora said. "Or whatever is left of it, anyway."
"Right," Barry agreed. "Go with the rest of the group."
XS moved off, leaving Flash and Harry with each other.
"Bittersweet," Flash admitted. "This is the day that I'm going to have to sacrifice myself."
"Oh?" Harry asked.
"Yes, I have to die to save the Multiverse."
A long moment's pause followed. Harry wondered if it were really that simple.
"Yes, that's a rough one. But, as someone who has had experience with being in your shoes, although to a far smaller degree, nothing is for certain. Until that moment"
"I think it was pretty cut and dry," Flash said.
"Maybe," Harry responded. "We'll see."
Flash moved off to join his daughter, and the rest of the group. Caitlin and Sara passed the Scarlet Speedster to join Harry. There had been a long pause. It was neither of them who had the decay, and Harry was kind of glad they did not as well. Although there had been something else peculiar regarding Sara, that Harry could not pinpoint.
"Ready to go?" Sara asked him.
Harry took their hands and the three disappeared with a small pop.
To say Harry had been impressed by the Waverider, even after all he had seen, and all he had done, had been quite impressive.
"Extraordinary," Harry whispered. "Completely extraordinary."
"Why thank you? Coming from the Dragon, that is an honor."
There was that name again. Very curious indeed.
"And what's the name of the lovely lady do I have the pleasure of addressing?" Harry asked.
"Oh, and as charming as usual. My name is Gideon, I am the navigational computer of the Waveirder. Although, you might find that I have certain advanced features beyond your artificial intelligence. Although given the power they use, I rarely use them."
"You're the second person who is referred to as the Dragon," Harry said.
"Yes," Sara said. "Is Harry..."
"I'm quite sorry, Captain Lance, but to tell you, would compromise the integrity of history all together."
Sara nodded. Harry would find out on his own, in due course.
"Well, that is about what I figured," Alia said over Harry's wrist communicator.
She appeared in the ship in a three dimensional hologram. Sara's gaze roamed rather appreciatively over the skin tight black bodysuit Alia chose to wear when she appeared.
"This is Alia, my companion," Harry said. "I created her. Breaking several magical laws in the process."
"Well, from my understanding of your world, those laws were Draconian and prevented progress," Gideon replied to him.
"Very, sharp, and yes, I would have to agree with your assessment, Gideon," Alia said. "They did impede progress. And yes, I can see your potential. Perhaps, once this Crisis passes, we can help you be able to enhance those upgrades that you have built in your system."
"Well, that would certainly be something," Gideon agreed. "Perhaps the two of us could interface sometime?"
Sara raised her eyebrow and turned to Harry.
"So, is your magical AI flirting with my ship's navigational computer?"
"Yes, yes she is," Harry confirmed.
Sara just shrugged, fair enough, she supposed.
"We should get to work," Sara said.
As amusing as the interaction was, they did have a timetable which they had to work on. Crisis was coming around the corner, and given the readings Sara came, it was going to effect past, present, and future. Before they could reach the storage area to get the component they needed, they stopped.
A tall blonde woman dressed in a bathrobe.
"Babe, you're back?"
"Yes," Sara said. "Ava, I'd like you to meet Harry Potter. Harry, this is my girlfriend, Ava Sharpe."
"Wait he's here? Seriously?" Ava asked in shock. "It's such an honor to meet you ag...well for the first time for you. I can't tell you much."
"I understand," Harry said.
Ava positively gushed at the sight of Harry. Harry turned to Sara who just grinned at him.
"Don't worry, we have an understanding," Sara said.
Now, Harry had been curious. Ava nodded and appeared to be looking at Harry with fervent worship.
"Now, now, Ava, not now," Sara remarked to her. "And besides, I called dibs."
"How can you call dibs?" Ava asked.
"Because, I ran into him first in the present, that was our agreement."
"Fine, but you better remember the other end of the deal."
Harry watched this interplay, not knowing whether to be amused or quite frankly confused. He just stepped back and let this play out.
"Trust me, I know," Sara said. "I know."
Harry felt a flicker of something, approaching quickly. He straightened up.
"We're going to have to move quickly," Harry said. "Time is running short."
"Right," Sara said. "It's in the other room. Talk to again later, Ava."
"Yes, and it was nice talking to you," Ava told her.
Harry, Sara, and Caitlin moved in to acquire the moment. Sara turned over her shoulder and then back towards Caitlin.
"On three, I need you to freeze it. Just enough so we can move it and Lena can hook it up."
"Relax, I've got you, Captain," Frost said. "Not even here for five minutes and he's already building a harem. Not that I blame anyone involved."
"That's what he does," Sara murmured.
Harry, Sara, Caitlin returned to Lena, Alex, Kara, and Alura with the component they needed.
"We got it," Harry said.
"Great," Alex said. "Lena, tell me what you need me to do."
Caitlin moved over to give them the assistance that they needed. This left Harry and Sara alone with each other for a minute while the group worked on finishing up the transmat portal.
"There's a lot going on," Sara said. "But, we'll find a way. We always do. Even if we stumble into it after messing up. It's the Legends way."
"Well, I've done that more often than I should too," Harry said. "But, I can feel it. Someone is going to die today."
"It...someone is going to die?" Sara asked him.
Harry confirmed. Sara did not seem surprised that he knew.
"I don't know who but I could smell it among the group," Harry said. "No one in this room though, because I can't smell it right now. I've bonded with three magical artifacts called the Deathly Hallows, and now, I can feel when someone is reaching their end."
"That must suck," Sara said.
"It can, but it may give me a chance to sense when this Anti-Monitor is nearby," Harry told her. "But, you've already been dead, haven't you?"
This statement and the bluntness of it, rendered Sara speechless.
"Yes, including one time where I was dead for over a year until my sister decided to throw me into a Lazarus Pit. It contains mystical waters that could resurrect the dead. Although there are prices to be paid for using it, a bloodlust which has to be sated. I found a way to counteract it by focusing on other emotions. Strong emotions as well."
Harry knew what she was alluding to. Sex could be a cure for anger in many cases. Something which Harry wished he learned during his troubled teenage years sooner.
"You can return to from death," Sara said. "Although, it's not ideal."
"And the soul is not willing to return, even if it is restless," Harry said.
"Yes," Sara admitted. "I was shackled by my own demons, until it was time to go back home."
A second later, Mia popped into the room.
"We have a problem," Mia said. "And we could use help. Especially yours."
Harry stood up straight and went to face the young archer.
"What do you need?"
"There's an attack," Mia said. "I'll explain on the way, we really need to go."
Harry had been joined by Supergirl, Killer Frost, and White Canary, while Alura, Alex, and Lena stayed behind to finish the work on the transmat portal.
"There's dark shadows, they're targeting the Quantum Tower," Mia said. "We have to stop them before they destroy it and let the anti-matter in."
Harry stepped in to join the group. Suddenly, it hit him. The person who had been tagged to death.
"Dark shadows?" Nora asked. "All too aware of them."
"Yes," Harry agreed. "They are extremely powerful, but they are fragile."
"So, hit them hard, but don't get hit by them," Batwoman said.
"Exactly."
An entire group of heroes stood below, with the dark shadows moving around them. They understood what they were fighting for. If they crippled the attack on this Earth, then they could slow the Anti-Monitor down. And perhaps find a way to stop him.
Diana rose up from the attack and rushed the creatures. She withdrew a sword and stabbed them straight into the chest. The creatures burst into dust when Diana impaled them. She ran up the wall and took out a good swath of the creatures. The Amazon moved grace, speed, and strength, and used her movements very casually.
As impressive as always watching Diana in action, Kara had to keep her eyes on the battle. Harry took her hand and a bright glow surrounded the two.
"Heat vision, now!"
Kara channeled magically powerful heat vision through her eyes and burned several of the shadow creatures to a crisp. They all recoiled with agony.
The Flash zipped around and hit all of them one by one. XS joined her father in taking them on and they created a cyclone which propelled them for more direct attacks by both archers, Batwoman, and the Atom.
"They're fragile!" Flash yelled. "But, why aren't they stopping?"
Harry realized what was happening. The heroes continued to fight. Superman flew up and used his super breath to engage the creatures, while Black Canary used her sonic scream to wipe them out, Harry closed his eyes.
"They are breaking through," Harry told him.
"How?" Mia asked.
"The Quantum tower should have held," Sara said.
Sara flipped over, having Diana's back, while Diana had hers. Both women stood back to back and fought off the never ending barrage of shadow creatures. The two women took it to the creatures, but they were right. The creatures were breaking through and bombarding the tower base.
"Lena, we may have to launch."
Cracks splintered the sky, causing red energy to appear. Harry summoned all of the power he could and beamed two concussive blasts of light. Harry conjured a sword out of thin air and channeled all of his magic through it. Harry obliterated the shadows with several blasts of white light which cut through them.
"Lena, civilians first. Then get yourself out of there. And I'll get them out of there."
"Are you sure you can do it?" Lena asked.
"He can," Alia confirmed. "I've copied the trail of the transmat. Although, we're rapidly running out of time for explanations. We've got to get this done!"
"Right! On it!"
One of the creatures dove down and made an attempt to go for Supergirl. Harry blasted it out of the way. Kara returned the favor by watching Harry's back and burning another attacker to a crisp.
Mia sent an arrow up into the air which caused the creatures to recoil ever so briefly. However, it was only a drop in the bucket, given how many of them swarmed them. Harry snapped his fingers and amplified the potency of her arrows all while sending Mia spinning like a top and firing at as many targets as she could.
"Everyone is off," Lena confirmed over the earpiece. "J'onn, Alex, and I are the last to leave."
Harry moved to the bottom of the Quantum tower. It had enough residual energy to do what Harry intended. It should make an explosion to wipe out the Anti-Monitor's forces or at least cripple them.
"Alia, you're up."
A flare of magical energy caught the entire group. One by one, the assembled heroes all disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Everyone is gone," Alia said. "Other than yourself, and Mr. Queen."
Harry's theory had been right. With Oliver being the only living body, the stench of death coming off of him was completely overpowering. Harry moved over to join with Oliver in battle.
"Mar-Nova stopped me from transporting you off," Harry said. "So, it's you, you're going to die."
Harry levitated Oliver's already discharged arrows and fired them at the creatures which impaled them in a blink of an eye.
"You're sacrificing yourself. Why?"
"I made a deal with Mar Nova," Oliver said. "You should go. Kara won't be pleased if she loses you again after all the work she's done to try and…"
A small blast and the creatures swarmed in. They would take down the tower, but Harry had other plans. Harry ran up the tower, straight towards the core.
"What you're doing is insane," Alia summarized.
"Always."
Harry could sense something creeping from the surface, from the shadows. The Anti-Monitor closed.. Perhaps the power of the core, would be more than enough to transport the away.
From the ground, the shadows overwhelmed Oliver. Harry could not see his fate, but felt it the strings tethering him to life snapping. He hung on by one or two strings, by a thread.
And yet, Oliver Queen fought, despite the life leaving his body. And Harry had one more trick up his sleeve.
"Focus."
Not distracted, Harry rammed his hands into the core and a bright light engulfed everything around them.
Earth-38 had been destroyed by the Anti-Matter's wave. Harry dropped down in the midst of the STAR Labs basement. His hands had been raw, almost burned down the bone, and had smoked with a disgusting stench. He staggered for a second and almost collapsed.
"Don't want to do that again."
Harry closed his eyes and suddenly, the skin repaired itself from the hands. He turned around, and came face to face with the same man who he encountered before the destruction of Earth-7.
"You again?" Harry asked.
"Yes," he said morsefully. "A Pariah, doomed to watch the destruction of his own making. Tragedy after tragedy, as you try and stop what cannot be stopped."
"Dad?"
Harry looked up and noticed Mia force-pushing her way through the group. Both Canaries had been half of a step behind Mia. And suddenly, Oliver's body appeared.
"Did we do it?" Oliver asked. "Did your insane plan stop him?"
"I don't...I hope so," Harry remarked.
"Dad, oh God!" Mia yelled.
Oliver's body looked disgusting, covered in bruising. The stench of death had been even worse than before, and Harry knew what was ahppening. That last final string held on by a tether.
"You can heal him, right?" Mia asked. "You can fix him."
Mia frantically grabbed Harry by the shoulder. The desperation in Harry's eyes reminded him of the desperation he felt several times when he lost ones close to him.
"I can try," Harry said. "But it's a longshot."
"No," Oliver croaked. "No. It's done."
Blood oozed from Oliver's mouth.
"Kara and Barry will be spared," Oliver managed. "I've held up my end of the bargain."
"Yes," Mar Nova said. "You have."
Harry sensed that final string cutting away. The precise moment where Oliver Queen's eyes shut, to not breath enough breath. On the mortal plane, he left them all.
"It wasn't supposed to be that way," Mar Nova said.
"Don't pretend you care," Dinah scoffed at him.
"Every life is precious, which makes the sacrifices almost impossible. But, he was not supposed to die, not like this, not before…"
Mar Nova vanished before the sentence completed. Kara moved over to stand next to Harry, while Barry stepped over and stood over his body. Mia had been completely shaken, and struggled not to show it. Boy, Harry had been down that road before, trying to be strong while the grief ate him up on the inside.
Nora was shaking as well. The Green Arrow was supposed to live to a ripe old age. Or at least he was before she stuck her inexperienced foot in the timeline.
"There was nothing you could do," Barry said. "There was nothing anyone could have done."
"It was my fault it happened so soon," Nora said. "Crisis wasn't supposed to happen for another five years. I let Thawne play me and make me go back in time. And Oliver Queen, he wasn't supposed to die now. History...history's changed. I don't even know what I'm doing anymore. I killed him."
Mia flashed Nora a dirty look and she walked out of the room. Sara moved closer to Oliver and looked down at him.
"She needs time," Sara said. "We all do."
And unfortunately though, they did not have time to grief.
As with times like this, Harry entered a state of deep meditation, to try and center his mind. And then from the shadows, Harry came face to face with an abomination.
"Anti-Monitor."
"Such power is wasted on protecting insects. I wish to know why before I destroy you along with your allies."
"A monster never understands," Harry calmly stated. "A monster only thirsts for destruction. But, you won't for long. I will make you pay."
"You can't stop me. You've failed twice. You will keep failing until I reshape the multiverse into my image."
"Leave!"
Harry pushed the Anti-Monitor from his mindscape. He opened his eyes where Kara appeared, carrying a bag of food and two cups of coffee.
"Hungry?" Kara asked.
"A bit," Harry said. "I could use something to eat after all of the magic I used. And for nothing. He's still out there."
"We won't let Oliver's sacrifice go in vain," Kara said. "He sacrificed himself, in exchange for Barry and me surviving the events of Elseworlds."
"And for that, I'm eternally grateful," Harry said. "But, we have a problem. The Anti-Monitor got in my head. His presence is getting stronger, with each Earth."
"Don't let him get in your head," Kara warned him.
"I won't," Harry said.
Harry let one monster take up residence in his head for too long. He did not wish to repeat the process again. He and Kara locked hands.
"Let my strength be your own," Kara told him. "Together, we can stop him if we work together."
Despite this, they did not deny the realities. Several Earths, including the Earths which they called home, had been destroyed through this Crisis. While all of the people from Earth-38 had been saved, it would be jarring and a shock, as these refugees tried to process what happened.
Still, Oliver Queen sacrificed himself. And it would not be in vain.
To Be Continued.
