Oliver and Sara sitting in Laurel's apartment with Tommy, waiting for her to get home from work so that they could go out to eat because she had canceled for lunch because she had a meeting. When Laurel walked into her apartment, she had the boy with her that Oliver and Sara had seen earlier that day.

"Hey, did you hire him to be your bodyguard too?" Sara said as she smiled at the young boy.

"No, his parents were killed earlier today, and he is going to stay here tonight." Laurel said.

"Oh, I am sorry to hear that. How about the three of you stay at the mansion tonight. We have a lot of security." Oliver said.

"I think that is a good idea." Laurel said because she knew that there would be four vigilantes there to protect the boy.

Sara, Oliver, and Laurel walked into the kitchen to have a private conversation. "So, this is Rasmus, right?" Oliver asked.

"Yeah he is the one I had the case against. You going to take him out?" Laurel asked.

"No, I am trying not to kill unless I have to. I am just trying to get a confession. Sara, you stay at the house with them and I will get back as soon as I can." Oliver said and everyone nodded in agreement.

While Oliver was out getting a confession from Rasmus, Diggle called and said "I have a lead on Deadshot. I could use your help. I need you there in thirty minutes."

"Send me the directions and I will be there." Oliver said.

Oliver got his confession from Rasmus and turned him into the police. He called Sara and said "Hey, I have got to help Diggle with something. I will be there as soon as I can."

As Oliver was about to hang up his phone Sara said "Hey the current just went out. I think we are about to have trouble."

"I will be there in a few minutes." Oliver said.

"What about Dig?" Sara asked.

"He will understand. My family is under attack. If he doesn't then that is his problem." Oliver said.

Sara hung up her phone and turned to Laurel and said "Here take this. It is a retractable staff. You might need it."

"Thanks." Laurel said.

Sara left the room to change into her suit and get ready to fight. She walked into Thea's room to tell her to get ready. Thea wasn't going to do much because she just started training but they could use her as a sniper. She had been showing that she was very competent with a bow.

When Sara walked out into the hall, she heard a noise telling her that someone was around the corner, so she snuck up to the corner so that she could get a better look. She looked around the corner and saw that it was Oliver in his Hood suit.

"Everything is clear up here. Let go check downstairs. Thea take a sniper position up here." Oliver said and Thea went to get into position while Sara and Oliver went downstairs where they came face to face with the assassin.

"Now why would the vigilantes be here of all places?" The assassin asked them.

"We heard someone was after an innocent kid so we thought we would look out for him." Sara said.

The next thing they knew, and arrow came down and hit the assassin in the shoulder. While he was momentarily disoriented because of the pain Oliver and Sara attacked. There was a lot of noise be made because surprisingly the assassin was a nearly a match in hand to hand combat with Oliver and Sara. The noise cause Laurel and Tommy to get worried. Laurel extended her staff and said "Tommy, watch out for Taylor. I am going to help them."

"What are you talking about? Your self-defense class will be no help against an assassin." Tommy said.

"Tommy, I need you to trust me ok." Laurel said and Tommy nodded.

When Laurel got to the bottom of the stairs she got into the fight with Sara and Oliver. With the three of them going up against the assassin, he didn't stand a chance. Sara got behind the assassin and put her staff to his throat and said "You think you can just go around and kill whole families just for money. Well for going after a kid you have left me no choice." Sara said and she snapped the assassin's neck.

"I need to go check on Tommy and Taylor." Laurel said.

"Let us take the lead. I know it was only supposed to be one assassin, but you can never be to safe." Sara said.

"What are you going to tell Tommy? He is going to ask why the vigilantes are here." Laurel said.

"This might be all of our chances to come clean to him. He deserves to know that his girlfriend and friends are vigilantes." Sara said and Laurel nodded.

"Speedy fall in behind us and watch our backs." Oliver said.

"I got your backs." Thea said.

The four of them made their way to the room where Tommy and Taylor were located. They opened the door and went into the room with Oliver and Thea having arrows nocked and Laurel and Sara at the ready with their staffs. Tommy looked out from the closet that he and Taylor were hiding in to see the vigilantes known as the Hood and the White Canary, along with a different one he had never seen before in a yellow suit that looked like the Hood, standing there with Laurel.

"You three get away from her." Tommy said.

"Calm down Tommy. Tell Taylor to stay in the closet and so that he can't see or hear what is going on out here." Laurel said.

Tommy went to shut the door to the closet and turned around and said "Laurel why should I trust the vigilantes. They are murderers."

The Hood answered his question by saying "What kind of friend would I be if you couldn't trust me." Oliver said as he lowered his hood.

Sara then took off her wig and mask and then Thea lowered her hood as well. Tommy was shocked to say the least. All of his friends were vigilantes.

"Tommy, I know this is hard to believe but we are not the bad guys. We just do what has to be done to protect Starling City." Sara said.

"I am not going to lie. I am hurt that you didn't tell me before now, but I think I can live with it. Just don't ask me to join you. I would also appreciate it if you would not involve Laurel in this either." Tommy said.

"It's too late for that Tommy. I have been training for a couple of months now." Laurel said.

"Ok, not to say that I am not shocked that you are in on this as well, but I guess I can be ok with my girlfriend being going out there as long as y'all are watching her back." Tommy said.

"She doesn't go in the field yet. She still needs a lot of training." Oliver said.

"Thea, what about you? When did you find out?" Tommy asked.

"I found out about a month ago. I am nowhere near ready to go into the field, but they used me as a sniper tonight." Thea said.

"Ok, I am glad to know that all of my friends are trying to make this city a better place." Tommy said.

"Good. You and Laurel can stay here tonight. It is late. The three of us need to go to the lair and change." Oliver said.

When they got to the lair, they changed from their suits into there street clothes. When they were done, they were about to leave when Diggle walked down the stairs and looked at all of them and said, "Well I guess I should have known that you would have picked all of them over helping me out Oliver."

"I am sorry Diggle, but I will choose my family when they are in danger every time." Oliver said.

"Well I guess I can't count on you when I need you then. I quit." Diggle said.

"I am sorry you feel that way. But that is not going to change the fact that my family is the most important thing in my life. My home was under attack and my mom, stepfather, and sister were there. There was no choice for me." Oliver said.

"You mean Sara was there. You know she can take care of herself. She didn't need your help." Diggle said.

"That was uncalled for Dig. I am not going to explain myself to you. If you don't trust me feel free to leave. No one is stopping you." Oliver said.

Diggle walked out and they didn't know if it was for good or not, but they didn't have time for all of his getting mad when things didn't go the way he wanted them to.

"Well that was fun. How about we head back home." Thea said.
