"Who's this man?" Jasmine asked when she saw Roy in the kitchen.
"This is one of daddy's friends Mr. Harper." Laurel said.
"You can call me Roy." Roy said to her.
"Hi. I'm Jasmine." Jasmine said eagerly to her new friend and Roy smiled.
"I see she's taken after her mother when it comes to meeting new people." Roy said to Oliver, who just rolled his eyes.
"Yes, I taught her to be nice to new people." Laurel said as they all sat down for dinner.
"Feels like old times almost." John said and Oliver nodded as the 5 of them sat around the table and ate peacefully.
After Jasmine went to sleep, Oliver, John and Roy headed to QC and began establishing the lair.
"Well, it's not quite as good as it was before, but we've got time to upgrade it." Roy said as they got cases set up with their suits in them.
"Plus, once we bring in Felicity, she can upgrade it as well and hopefully soon, we can rebuild the bunker." Oliver said and Roy and John nodded.
"So, where to we start?" John asked.
"We start making the rounds, taking as many people out of play as possible now so we can focus on Merlyn." Oliver said.
"Who are we going after?" Roy asked.
"We divide and conquer. John, go after Gaynor, Roy, take Hunt and I'm going to deal with Somers." Oliver said and they nodded, knowing why Oliver wanted to take out Somers and John his own reasons for going after Gaynor.
"So, how was your first night of hunting?" Laurel asked as Oliver entered the apartment later that night.
"Didn't mean to wake you." Oliver said.
"Kind of hard to sleep knowing what you're doing." Laurel said and Oliver had to give her that.
"Anyways, to answer your question, Gaynor and Somers are in prison and Hunt will be broke by morning." Oliver said and Laurel nodded.
"Nicely done. So, how does it feel to have John and Roy having your back again?" Laurel asked.
"Almost like old times. The only thing we're missing now, is Overwatch." Oliver said.
"I still think bringing any version of your ex in is a big mistake." Laurel said, noting Oliver just rolling his eyes at her.
"Speaking of my exes, there's another one we need to talk about." Oliver said as he sat down next to her.
"Who?" Laurel asked.
"Helena Bertinelli. Have you tried keeping tabs on her since you woke up in this universe?" Oliver asked and Laurel shook her head.
"Been a bit busy raising a daughter on my own for the past 5 years. But why is Helena such a concern?" Laurel asked.
"Because another thing I did today while Jasmine napped was look up Michael Staton and the timeline here is exactly the same as it was before, which means that it's only a matter of time before Helena starts gunning after the Bertinelli's and starting a turf war. We need to be able to contain her and maybe even reform her if possible." Oliver said.
"Reform her? Why do you keep wanting to bring your ex-girlfriends into this?" Laurel asked.
"Because both Felicity and Helena went down paths that are partially my fault and I have a chance to rectify them. Don't worry, you are the only woman I love." Oliver assured her as he kissed her.
"God, I forgot how much you stink after missions. Go take a shower." Laurel said.
"Care to join me. After all, there is room for 2." Oliver said and Laurel smiled as she took his hand.
"Not at all." Laurel said as they headed to the bathroom.
Malcolm Merlyn was sitting in his office, thinking about recent events. His scouts in the city told him that 3 names on the list had already been visited and while he wasn't sure by who yet. His first thought was Oliver, but then he realized that since Robert hadn't been with Oliver after he'd blown up the Gambit, there was no way Oliver knew about the Undertaking. However, it didn't mean that there wasn't someone out there who knew about the list and that meant his plans were in danger.
He closed the windows in his office and shut off the security cameras before pressing a button under his desk and a panel of his wall slid away to reveal his old League of Assassins gear.
"Hello old friend. Looks like we have some hunting to do." Malcolm said.
