Hey everyone. This is going to be a series of one shots, connected and otherwise, which will be the basis of my version of "Marvel's What If" but for the Arrowverse. The idea to do this came to me and it might be fun to explore different possibilities within different timelines based upon either one or multiple different choices made by the characters involved.
This first one will explore as to what if Oliver had actually been brainwashed by Ra's and destroyed his city before ascending to become the next Ra's. And it will be due to Malcolm not having been there to prevent his brainwashing because Oliver decided not rescue him after Thea turned him into the League. And Ra's in turn decided to go ahead and kill him for his violations of League law while approaching Oliver in another way instead of possibly using Malcolm as bait.
And it will be centered on Laurel and Nyssa and explore the post S3 aftermath of this alternative reality from their perspective.
Disclaimer: I don't own the Arrowverse or the "What If" concept.
Opening Scene
Scene flashes to a wide black expanse of the multiverse, including a vast canopy of shimmering stars, with different Earths and timelines appearing. As each world displays the lives and actions of its various heroes, the booming voice of the Monitor is overheard.
"For multitudes of millennia the people of Earth have always believed their world and their universe was the only one in existence. What they didn't know was that theirs was only one of a myriad of universes each containing their own Earths. Earths containing deeply similar or greatly different histories and cultures.
"All of these worlds, just like their own world, have its share of heroes and protectors watching over their respective worlds and their exploits have been explored and examined across the years. But what if one, two, or three different choices caused their heroes lives and the lives of those around them to go in different directions than the lives and histories we've already explored?
"What if an entirely different path within another world or even another timeline was forged due to a different choice than the choices we've observed?
"What I'm about to show you are a multitude of worlds and timelines across the expanse of space and time in which different choices are made and how the resulting histories and ramifications are entirely different from what you may remember.
"Though no matter how events transpire I shall never interfere since the choices and actions of those involved are theirs alone to make.
"And now let us begin our exploration as follows:
The scene then moves into settles upon an Earth known as Earth-7 and the events related towards a certain former legendary hero, the Black Canary.
To Be Continued
A/N Next we'll be moving onto the official collective of stories this will be comprised of and I hope you'll all be here to join me on this adventure. Though I make no promises as to when the next chapter will be ready.
On a side note but the number I chose for this Earth, Earth-7 is the numerical equivalent to 'Canary' according to the Pythagorean numerology system which I've never heard of, as far as I remember, until today.
Have a great day.
