Hello, this is my first ever published Fanfiction. I am quite new to this, I used to Write as Oliver Queen a lot in a roleplaying setting and figured why not test something new and post this idea I have had for a while.
The idea is Oliver coming back from Crisis getting a second chance at life, a lot of people rush through these types of stories and with the future knowledge they take down villains quickly and with no issues, my plan is to limit Oliver which will be explained in the first chapter but let's just say if he changes too much too fast a certain Speedster will definitely mess things up even more for Oliver.
Okay enough talk without a further ado please enjoy this story.
Ps. I'll be updating the story hopefully weekly.

CHAPTER ONE.
HOMECOMING.
Oliver Queen could feel the floor beneath his feet as he looked out of the skyline of Star no sorry Starling City. He knows the exact moment where he is thanks to The Monitor and his 'gift'. It was anything but that to Oliver. The last eight years of his life he lost so many people starting from his best friend to the people he could not save on Earth 38. According to The Monitor this was a Brave New World that he and the other paragons created at the dawn of time. Except he is the only one to recall that battle. To make matters worse The Crisis was still on its way, this time it was Oliver's job to gather a group.. no a League of heroes to prepare for that battle. He was tasked to do better, and better he would do. His eyes stared directly at the Merlyn Global company. Hatred surrounded Oliver as he knew what stage his godfather was in. Oliver quickly thought on how he was going to have to train his body to be at peek condition again for Christmas. It would be there that Malcolm Merlyn would draw his last breath. Yes, Malcolm was Thea's father and saved her on Lian Yu. But without his influence he never would have had to fight Ra's Al Ghul on that mountain. Sara would not have been killed by Thea, and there would be no need to use the pit on Sara. Yes Ra's maybe a problem later and when the time came he would face it head on, but for now Oliver knew the league was important in its roll of keeping the Anti Monitor locked away till 2024.
The door to his room then open and he could already feel his body start to betray him as he got another chance to hold his mom, not like the version on earth 2 counted but this was his mother the Moira Queen that was proud of her son and regretted the mistakes she had made. Seeing her again made him think of Slade, he was going to need to work on that cure so he could be ready. "Oliver?" Hearing his mother's voice caused Ollie to take a sharp breath as he turned to face her with a smile.
"Mom."
"Oh my beautiful boy!" Rushing over to hug him Moria was feeling so much relief that her son was back.

NEXT DAY:
The limo ride home was much the same as last time except Oliver requested a stop. He needed to see her, he needed her to know that Sara was possibly alive, and he was going to be as truthful as possible with the woman he loved. Especially since he was not gonna wait until Tommy and him went into town to see her. Entering CNRI he waited near her desk spotting The file on Adam Hunt. This caused a frown to form on his face as he was planning on waiting a month before going out as Green Arrow. This caused his thoughts to start going haywire as he had to figure out a way for them not to suspect Green Arrow and him were the same. Maybe he would just sneak into the office when no one was there and transfer the money himself. That way it was a win, win. Of course once Green Arrow starts making the news though people would still possibly suspect him. His thoughts were cut off when he heard her footsteps. "Hello Laurel." He could see the shock on her face, she must not have seen the news yet. "Can we talk in private?"
Both walked into a secure room as Oliver was still getting used to how young she looked, not yet the woman who would become Black Canary. "Is she?"
"I don't know."
"You don't.."
"Laurel when the Gambit went down I tried looking for her, I thought she died but then a year later she resurfaced on a boat and we found each other again. It was not until that boat got destroyed that we lost each other again, but If she survived the first time I have to believe she could survive the second with much calmer water."
"Did you sl.."
"No." Oliver said which technically was not a lie, The Monitor had shown him something's were different on this earth for starters everyone knew Sara was onboard, because Laurel was supposed to take a chopper and meet them on the boat after her exams. But that never happen. "I don't know what the news might have said, but we all knew she got on that boat because she was tired of your parents treating her like a child."
Laurel, who had mixed emotions, quickly hugged Oliver. He returned it as he sat with her for as long as she needed him to. Once the hug ended he looked at her. "I'll be at the mansion if you can, I would like it if you could attend dinner tonight."
"I wouldn't miss it."
With that they both said goodbyes and Oliver kissed her on her cheek before returning back to the limo. Moria looked at her son. "Can we expect Miss. Lance for dinner tonight?"
"Yes, I hope that's not an issue."
"None at all Oliver. I just got word The Merlyns will be joining us tonight ."
Oliver smiled on the one hand it would be nice to see Tommy again on the other hand seeing Malcolm this early was definitely showing how different this timeline was getting already.
