It was night time, and several men, who were guarding another man, were climbing into a helicopter. All of a sudden, Thanatos and Arrow appeared. The men turned around and pulled out their guns.
"Who's that?" one asked.
"Where'd he come from?" Said another, slowly moving towards the two heroes.
Arrow stepped forward, ready to meet the man in the middle for the coming fight while Thanatos hung back and watched. Of the five men, the first one threw a punch at Arrow only for it to be dodged and then punched himself in the stomach.
The man stepped back then tried to run at Thanatos who sighed and lifted the man up with his magic and blasted him towards the helicopter. The second and third man tried to attack Arrow simultaneously. One threw a kick, Arrow ducked and punched the second man who tried to punch him while he was ducked down.
Another man came trying to kick him, but Arrow met his kick with his own. As the man stepped back to rub his leg the second man returned and hit Arrow in the face. Arrow hit him in the chest making the man lose his breath before punching his face, knocking him out.
Thanatos appeared in front of the man trying to get into the helicopter, engaging the two guards protecting him. The first man tried to pull a gun but Thanatos slapped him, making him front flip onto the ground. Before the second stepped forward, Thanatos raised his hand in a choking motion. The second man held his throat and fell to a knee, then to the ground unconscious.
Arrow walked towards the man still trying to get away as Thanatos walks behind him.
"Whoa whoa. Please, wait!" The man pleaded as he backed towards the edge of the roof. Arrow grabbed him and threw him to another lower section of the roof before jumping down behind him. The man repeatedly said no, nearly begging not to be killed. The man was then thrown to a nearby fan. Arrow broke into it and put the man's head next to the spinning blades.
"Marcus Redman, you have failed this city." Arrow told the man. Up on the edge of the other building, Thanatos groaned out in annoyance. "Seriously? Again with this crap?" He asked himself.
Marcus Redman pleaded not to be pushed into the blades. "The cellphone, inside pocket, call your partner. Tell him to give those pensioners back their money." Arrow growled out. Marcus continue to plead making Arrow mad. "Do it. Now!." He shouted, letting the man go and walking away.
-Scene Change-
Harrison and Oliver walked into the living room, that Moira and Walter were already occupying. 'Over the course of the last 15 years, Mr. Redman has withdrawn more than 30 million dollars from the Plan's account.' Oliver and I heard on TV as we walked in. Thea came in from around the corner and gave Harrison a hug, pushing her body against his and staying their for a short bit before letting go.
'Mr. Redman claims refunding has always been his intent, but sources say Redman was coerced by the vigilantes.' The TV continued. The news cast pulled up a drawn photo of Oliver as the Arrow and a picture of what may look like Death as Thanatos. Oliver trying to lighten the mood looked around the room and said," This guy get's more air time than the Kardashians, right?"
Thea, who was still beside me, just stared at Oliver with a confused look. "Five years on an island and you still know who they are." She questioned. Harrison slapped Oliver on the back. "We've been catching up. It's nice to see how far our culture has improved while we were away, though I wouldn't have mentioned them." Harrison told Thea as he poked her in the side, making her jump and push into him.
Moira looked over at the three. "But this city used to be different. People used to be safe." She told her children while still watching the news. Thea playfully punched Harrison in the ribs, he played like it hurt, then she turned to Moira and walked to her side. "Aw, what's the matter, mom? Afraid we're going to be next?" She asked, playfully glaring at Harrison who just stuck his tongue at her.
Standing up, Moira walked over to Harrison and Oliver as Walter began to talk. "Do either one of you have any questions about today? It's a simple proof-of-life declaration. You just read out a brief prepare statement for the judge, then your death-in-absentia judgment will be voided." Walter spoke, then looking to Moira to continue.
Being funny, Oliver told Walter,"It's fine, Walter. I've been in a courtroom before."
Harrison groaned out before walking behind Thea and hugging her. Thea leaned into him as Tommy walked in, unknown to Oliver. "Four times by my estimate." Tommy started, drawing attention to him, though he paused and looked at Harrison and Thea for a few seconds before continuing.
"You know, there was the DUI, the assault on the paparazzi douchebag, stealing the taxi which was awesome, by the way. And who could forget peeing on the cop?" Tommy continued before Moira cut in. "I wish everyone would." She told him as Walter helped her put on a jacket.
Oliver chuckled,"I'd hang, but we're headed to court." Tommy gave a big smile," I know, that's why I'm here. My best friend is getting legally resurrected, I wouldn't miss this for the world.
Still messing around with Thea, Harrison looked up. "You make it seem as if he was by himself, Tommy. Aren't you forgetting the oldest of the three?" He asked as Thea gave a small kiss to his cheek and walked over to Moira and started talking with her. Tommy glanced at Harrison before turning to him.
"Um, yeah...and my best friend's brother." Tommy stuttered out. Harrison just stared him down before walking out.
He turned to Oliver. "Was your brother was always this intense?" Tommy asked Oliver who just shook his head. "Tommy, the only people who he ever enjoyed being around was Thea, a woman named Kara, Laurel, and Sara. You are neither of those people." Oliver informed him.
Oliver turned to Thea,"What about you? Joining Harrison and I?" He asked her, turning away from the now red Tommy. Thea picked up her bag and inched towards the door. "I think the first for times were enough." She told him as she followed Harrison out the door. Oliver just stood their, surprised. "Fair enough." He told himself after she left.
A few seconds later, Oliver's bodyguard, John Diggle, came and informed them of their ride to the courthouse being ready. The four remaining people in the room slowly made their way to the car that awaited them.
Scene Change
Reporters swarmed around Harrison and Oliver, asking how his return has been and what it was like on the island. Mr. Diggle kept most of them at bay as they walked into the courtroom.
Flashback (On the boat)
Harrison ran back to his room, lightning coursing over him. As his anger grew, so did the storm. Thoughts of Oliver with Sara, thoughts of him and Laurel. With a telekinetic blast, Harrison knocked everything across the room.
Present
Reporters continued to hound the two men. Oliver growing more and more distressed, while Harrison's anger grew to the point where he almost lost control.
Flashback
Harrison stalked down the hallway, his eyes glowing red and the ground decaying around his feet with every step not bothered by the erupting around him as he made his way towards Oliver and Sara room.
His father got in the way, trying to prevent his from going only to be knocked to the side. "Harrison, stop!"
Present
"There was a storm. Lightning struck and the boat went down. My brother and I were the only survivors." Oliver told the judge.
Flashback
The boat was going down, everyone was on life rafts except Harrison. He watched as Robert Queen searched for Oliver. Once he had him, he was happy. As the boat sunk, Harrison glared at the sky one last time.
Present
"Our father didn't make it." Harrison cut in.
Flashback
"Oliver, right my wrongs. Live." Robert told Oliver as he pointed his gun to his head and killed himself.
Present
As Oliver and Harrison told their story, Moira looked down in sadness. "We almost died, we...I thought that I had cause I spent so many days on that life raft. Harrison was the strong one." Oliver continued.
Flashback
Harrison glared at Oliver as they drifted on the ocean, fog covering every direction. "What are we going to do?" Oliver asked Harrison, distraught about what just happened. "You will stay over there as I try not to murder you. I don't know what to do with you right now." Harrison replied.
Oliver looked down into the water sadly until the fog lifted, showing an island.
After they reached the island, Oliver crawled to the ground up a hill while Harrison stood tall ready to except anything that came.
Present
"Once we reached the island, I knew we were going to live." Harrison carried on for Oliver who choked up. Oliver looked down then slowly looked back at the judge. "It was in those five years..it was that...one thought..that kept me going." Oliver finished for the two of them.
The lawyer stood up to confront the judge. "Your honor, we move to vitiate the death-in-absentia filed after Harrison and Oliver's disappearance at sea aboard the Queen's Gambit, five years ago. Unfortunately, we will not be requesting that the declaration of death field for the petitioner's father, Robert Queen, be rescinded. The Queen family is only entitled to one miracle, I'm afraid." The lawyer informed the judge.
After everything was said and done with, Harrison made his escape while Oliver tried to talk Moira out of going to Queen Consolidated. While Harrison made his escape, he ran into an old friend. "Harrison?" a woman asked from behind him.
Harrison turned around and gazed at the beauty that was Laurel Lance. "Laurel Lance. As I live and breath." He said, then noticed her two friends behind her. " I knew Oliver was alive, but when I didn't hear from you... I thought you were gone too." Laurel told him before giving him a hug.
He looked down,"After what Oliver did...I didn't know if you wanted me around either." Harrison whispered out softly, staring into her beautiful eyes. Laurel just shook her head and smiled, " I would never blame you for what your brother did. I know if you had known, I know you would have beaten him just like you did when he tried to do that with Mckenna Hall in high school." She let him know, placing a hand on his arm.
As he went to speak, Oliver drew closer so he made an excuse and left. He turned back just in time to see Oliver get shut down by a passive aggressive Laurel.
Outside trying not to be seen, Harrison teleported to a nearby rooftop. Down below was a man giving an interview. "I am a honest business man and I will fight this slander to my last dime and breath. That's all I have to say. Thank you." The man told the reporters. Oliver just stepped out the courthouse in time to hear the man's final words before he walked inside.
Angered, Oliver pushed his way to his ride before getting in and leaving Mr. Diggle and Tommy. More curious than ever, Harrison teleported down and walked back into the courthouse to see what the man's deal was. If he was innocent, get him proof. If he was a criminal then he will take him down alongside Oliver for Laurel.
Sneaking in the back, Harrison realized the court session has already started and Laurel was front and center giving her part in what looked to be a hearing.
"What is a life worth." She started while she looked around the courtroom, "A life of a man...a good man, a stevedore on the docks of the city in which we live. A father. A man with a daughter. The plaintiff will prove by a preponderance of evidence that Victor Nocenti learned that his boss, that man sitting right there; Martin Somers was taking bribes from the Chinese Triad to smuggle drugs into our city. And when Victor Nocenti threatened to tell the police, Martin Somer's had him killed." Laurel continued.
She paused and looked around the courtroom, staring at Martin Somer's then going to the jury. "Mr. Somer's is very well connected. He has friend's in the District Attorney's office. Which is why if Emily Nocenti is to get justice for her father's death, if Martin Somer's is to get justice for his crimes, then someone is going to have to get it for them."
Scene Change
Harrison flew around Star City as Thanatos. While he did, he noticed a woman jump off a building. Within the second, he dived down to save her but she just flew back up. He floated their for a minute, realizing the building is Catco media. It took him another second to realize that their was someone else on the roof. He casually landed behind them as they talked.
The other guy on the roof noticed him and tried to warn her. She turned around and jumped. "You know, I really enjoyed having your help last night. Though, we really did cause a mess." Thanatos told her.
Her eye's brightened when she saw who it was. "Who are you? I know we helped each other last night, but you seem really familiar." She informed him.
Thanatos just smirked even though she couldn't see it. "I seem familiar because you never forget your first love, Kara." He replied. Slowly but surely see came to the conclusion of who he was. "Harry? Is that really you?" She whispered out, hoping to not be wrong. Thanatos turned to the other guy and stared him down before he left.
After the man left, Thanatos took off his mask and hood showing he was Harrison Queen. "Oh my god, Harry I'm so glad to see you. I heard the news you were back but never got the chance to see you." She told him after she ran to him and hugged him. She let him go so that he could put his mask back on.
"So, now you're in the hero business like your cousin?" Thanatos asked her while looking around at the city. She smiled and started bouncing around. "Yea, but not like my cousin. I'm my own hero. I want to be called Superwoman." She replied while staring at his body. He kept looking around at the city," Well now that I know you're here, let me give you my number. I missed you, Kara. Can't wait to see you again."
Soon after he gave her his number, she went back inside to work. Turns out, Kara is Kara Danvers. Harrison's first love and first real girlfriend. She works at Catco media as Cat Grant's assistant, though she'll eventually work up to be a reporter.
Time skip to later that night.
Harrison informed Oliver about what happened with Laurel and Martin Somer's and told him to keep an eye out. Afterwards he went to Kara's apartment where he met the guy from earlier on the roof. Harrison learned his name was Winslow Schott, but he went by Winn. They talked about different things until the subject on being a hero came up.
Winn decieded to make her suit while Harrison just wanted to enjoy the show. "So, how are you taking this secret, Winn?" Harrison asked as he cracked open a fortune cookie. Winn walked around the counter, holding his food. "Man, it's amazing. I know I can't tell anyone, but I'm glad she told me. She's my best friend." Winn told him, washing his hands.
Turning towards Kara's room Winn called out," So how is it? Does it fit?" She called out to Kara. She walked out in what looked to almost be a bikini. The shirt cut off right below her breast, while her shorts weren't that far from her waist. Harrison spat out the drink he had started to drink as he saw what Winn basically put her in.
"I'm not flying around saving people in this thing. I...I wouldn't even wear it to the beach. Where's my cape?" She told/asked Winn while Harrison was on the ground laughing. "I've seen you where less, my dear." Harrison told her as he got up. Kara glared at him and shot him in the butt with a ray of heat vision.
Winn just stared at the two while he continued eating his food. "Capes are lame. Tell your cousin I said so." Winn told her before pausing. "Actually, wait. Don't do that." He said with a shiver.
They tried on a few more outfits before Harrison got a call. "Yeah?" He answered. "Is this Harry Queen?" the person on the other end asked. Harrison sighed. "Only two people call me that and I'm with one. What did Thea do?" He questioned the caller. "Well, she's currently drunk in the club and needs to be taken home." the caller told him.
Harrison groaned out and after he got the address, he left for her. He got to the club, grabbed Thea and teleported to her room.
"Harrrryyyyyy. Stay with me."She told me, drawing out my name as she pulled on my shirt getting me closer and closer to her bed. Harrison kissed her forehead. "I think it's time for my little fire bird to go to sleep." He told her as he picked her up bridal style.
Thea started kissing his neck as he walked her over to the bed. Once Harrison was at the bed, he laid Thea on it but she wrapped her legs around him so that he couldn't leave.
"You know, I do have feelings for you that I shouldn't have but I'm not going to do this with you while you're drunk. I'll lay here with you, but nothing else. Understand me?" He asked her while getting comfortable on the bed. Thea nodded and snuggled in close to him. "I'm glad you're back." She whispered. Harrison wrapped his arms around her and held her till she fell asleep.
"I'll never leave you again." He told her sleeping form before he fell asleep himself.
On the other side of town.
The Enchantress made a portal to what looked to be another realm. There she met the man with a lightning bolt on his chest. "Black Adam, where are we?" She asked. The newly named Black Adam merely looked forward. "This is the Rock of Eternity. Lair of the old Shazam, or as I knew him Mamaragan. He is one of the Wizards who trained me. Who fought side by side with the God's to trap the seven deadly sins." He told her.
Black Adam then walked over to one of the statues. "He died after giving his powers to a young boy. A child. Then chose another successor. I will find them both and destroy them. Then and only then will I destroy everything he loved.
