A/N: I forgot to do this last time. I do not own CW the arrow nor do I own DC. Now onto the story. Also I decided that instead of using google translate, I'm just going to use Italics for different languages.
"The Queen's Gambit has officially been confirmed to have sunk somewhere in the north China sea." The news broadcasters announced, startling Nyssa and Talia out their conversation.
They look at each other realizing they were back in time as well as on another Earth.
"Do you think Sara and Oliver remember as well?" Nyssa asks Talia as they realize that Sara and Oliver were on that boat.
"I would assume they do as they were right next to us when the explosion went off." Talia replies after a moment. "When do you think we should go get them from the Island?" she asks.
"Sara told me about her time on the island. Knowing them they want to save everyone they can so we should wait until when I picked Sara up last time." Nyssa replies knowing what her beloved and her friend would do. "As for right now," she continues, "We need to finish the mission we are and act like nothing has changed until our father sends us to collect Sara." Talia nods her head.
"Well I'm going to take a shower now. You read to see what the mission is and if we have completed it." Talia replies as she heads to the shower after they settle on their plan.
Oliver Queen woke up confused for the second time in a row before he remembers what happened the day before. "Oh hell that all happened." He groaned before getting up and looking around. He took a glance at Sara before taking a look at himself. "Oh shit. I have to get my body back into shape again," he complained. As he was complaining, Sara woke up with a grin as she heard what he was saying.
"At least you don't have to relearn how to shoot a bow again" she said amused. "I can't use my escrima sticks until I make them out of wood," she said. As they were talking to each other, Yao Fei moves the stone and comes into the cave. He motions for the two castaways to follow him. He eventually tells them to stop and hands Oliver his bow.
"Shoot the arrow at the mark in the tree" he tells Oliver as he points to a tree not too far from them that has a mark in the middle of it. Oliver nods as he draws back the bow smoothly and fires. What comes next surprises the Chinese man as the arrow hits the tree dead center of the mark. "You may just survive this." Yao tells him impressed by the shot. He then takes the bow from Oliver hands Sara the bow. "You shoot." he tells her not thinking she can understand Mandarin. Sara takes the bow from Yao, draws back and fires the arrow hitting the tree a little off center. This surprised Yao even more, but the one who is most surprised is Oliver. Sara noticed the surprise on Oliver's face.
"What you didn't think I only learned close combat did you," She teases Oliver with a smirk "They taught me how to use everything just how Talia taught you." Oliver just smirks back at her.
"Now we need to have a competition." He replies.
"Deal, but after we get into some shape" Sara says as Oliver nods his head in assent.
Two weeks later, Oliver and Sara were running through the forest next to each other when Sara asks Oliver "Why did you never marry Felicity and where did you meet Talia?" Sara asks Oliver. Oliver slows down and takes a rest to answer the question.
"You know I'm attracted to dangerous women," he started " however, I never truly loved her in the first place. I never truly loved anyone that I dated since I got back from the Island." he said.
"I'm guessing you met someone before coming back and I'm going to say it's Talia based on how you two interacted when we met up." Sara replied thinking back to the meet up before the island.
"Yes. Talia is the love of my life. We first met back in Russia and we instantly hit it off and became friends while she was training me to become a better fighter. She taught me everything she knew and after two months I realized I really liked her. Then one day, I dared her that if I beat her in archery we would go on a date. As you have probably guessed," Oliver continued after seeing Sara start to gain a smile, "I won and I took her to a restaurant in Moscow and we eventually fell in love with each other." Oliver finished his story.
"Then why did you date others when you came back if you two were in love with each other." Sara asked confused. Even people thought they dated back when she showed up again, they didn't they just hung out, but he did date others.
"To put it simply, it was cover. We still met up with each other throughout the years, but never in public. She even warned me about Chase when he came to ask her to train him. She turned him away and warned me, but didn't think he would find another which he obviously did. When I went to Russia for the 'business trip', I actually met up with Talia instead of Isabel like I told Felicity." Oliver said finishing up his and Talia's story.
"Where does Nyssa fit into all of this?" Sara questioned wondering how her girlfriend fit into this. "Especially after you were forced to marry her by Ra's Al-Ghul." Sara told Oliver with a raised eyebrow.
"I told Talia right after it happened and she wasn't mad at me knowing that I was forced to marry her and didn't actually do anything with her. I eventually got the two to meet with each other and reconcile. They settled their differences and became friends again and Nyssa only called me husband in front of Felicity to rile her up knowing that Talia and I were together." Oliver said, answering her question. "Now let's get back to the cave." He said as they got up and finished their run and spared each other. As they finished up they saw Yao Fei approach them with two dead birds in one hand and his bow on the other in his signature green hood.
"I need your help to get my daughter back." Yao Fei eventually tells Oliver after a couple of weeks of watching them train and get into shape. "My daughter is being held captive by a man named Edward Fyers. He has an army of mercenaries looking for me to frame me for a crime against my home country. Will you help me?" he asks the two warriors as he now thinks of them after watching them spar against each other. Oliver and Sara look at each other before nodding.
"Yes we will help you out. I have a couple ideas in mind to help out" Oliver tells Yao Fei.
"I'm all ears." Yao Fei replies eager to get his daughter back.
Oliver was sitting on a hill overlooking Fyers camp. He was looking for an easy way to sneak into the camp undetected when suddenly he was hit in the back of the head and was knocked unconscious. As he regained consciousness, he heard a voice speak up. "Welcome to my camp." Oliver looked up and saw a white male with a chubby face and light brown hair. "Now my men found you looking at my camp from a vantage point near here. Would like to tell me why and while you are at tell me if you've seen this man." Fyers continues while holding up a picture of Yao Fei in his old Chinese military uniform. As Oliver remained silent, he began to speak again. "If you won't corporate I'll just have him get the information out of you." he said pointing to the man standing behind in in full combat gear with a blue face mask on and a sword resting in his hand before he held it up and started moving towards Oliver. "Now give up this man's location," Fyers said pointing to the picture ", or he will make you feel pain like you've never felt before." Oliver remained silent as the masked figure started walking towards him.
A/N: In this chapter, You got to see the development of Talia and Oliver as a couple in a short story. You will get more detail once they meet up again later on. I have decided that this will be updated weekly to give me time to write it. As always, any reviews are appreciated.
