Laurel was at her desk in CNRI, since she hadn't received an offer to join the DA's office yet, when her father approached her.
"Hey, so, who's got your girl today, since both you and Oliver are working?" Quentin asked his daughter with a smile as she got up and kissed his cheek.
"Moira, like usual, since she's the only one who isn't working at the time of day that Jasmine gets out of preschool, since Oliver went to work for his father, you're working at the station, mom's working as Star City University, etc." Laurel said.
"I still can't believe that Oliver is working for his father. Isn't that something he swore he'd never do." Quentin asked.
"That was before Jasmine came along. He didn't just want to rely on his parents' money, he wanted to help support his daughter." Laurel said.
"Anyways, I got you those files you wanted on Daniel Brickwell, but would you mind telling me why?" Quentin said.
"Following up on a hunch regarding a case. Thank you." Laurel said as she took the files from her dad.
"Let me know if there's anything else I can help you with." Quentin said.
"Will do." Laurel said as she looked through the file until she found what she was looking for.
"Dad, actually, before you go, I think I found something." Laurel said.
"What?" Quentin asked.
"The gun Brick always uses, it's been connected to another case, the murder of Rebecca Merlyn." Laurel said.
"I'll inform Mr. Merlyn and my future son-in-law." Quentin said.
"You've really come to terms with Sara marrying Tommy huh?" Laurel asked.
"More like I've decided that I'd rather be still have my daughter want me in her life than rat on her fiance, besides, just like you did to Oliver, Sara's had a calming effect on Tommy." Quentin said and Laurel nodded.
That night, Oliver, John and Roy were in the lair, gearing up.
"Laurel told me that her dad told Tommy and Malcolm about Brick, which means we can kill 2 birds with one stone." Oliver said.
"What do you mean?" John asked.
"I know Malcolm well enough to know that he'll go after Brick to." Oliver said.
"So we're taking that son of a bitch off the grid now?" Roy asked.
"Not yet. Malcolm's still a member of the Star City Elite. We can't take him out without drawing too much unwanted attention on us. But what we can do is send him a message." Oliver said.
"What sort of message?" John asked.
"That Star City is no longer his to terrorize." Oliver said as he pulled up his hood.
"Let's move out." Green Arrow said as John put on his helmet and Roy put on his own hood as they moved out.
Brick was currently doing business with his crew in a warehouse out in the Glades when an arrow pierced his shoulder.
"What the?" Brick asked as the power went out and a figure dropped down to the ground.
"Who are you?" Brick asked.
"A man you wronged." Dark Archer said as he fired a black arrow at Brick, only to have it intercepted by a green one.
Both men turned to see Green Arrow, Spartan and Arsenal standing in the corner.
"Spartan, take out the thugs, Arsenal, deal with Brick, Merlyn's mine." Green Arrow said, much to Dark Archer's surprise.
"Copy that." Spartan said as he began firing and Arsenal engaged Brick.
"How do you know who I am?" Dark Archer asked Green Arrow as they circled each other.
"You wouldn't believe me if I told you. All you need to know is that I know what you're up to and I'm the man who's going to stop you." Green Arrow said as they fired at the same time, Green Arrow dodging the black arrow, but Dark Archer caught the green one, which exploded, knocking him backwards.
"Never just catch an arrow. You never know what it could do." Green Arrow warned as he charged towards Dark Archer.
"I don't know who you are or how you know my plans, but you're not going to interfere." Dark Archer said as he got up and fought back, but to his surprise, the Green Arrow countered every single one of his moves, blow for blow, as if he had the same training or somehow knew all his moves before he made them.
"Brick's secured." Arsenal said.
"Thugs are down." Spartan said as they watched Green Arrow fight Dark Archer.
"Brick deserves to die for what he did to Rebecca." Dark Archer said.
"Killing him won't bring her back." Green Arrow said.
"You don't know anything." Dark Archer said as he used a smoke bomb to escape.
"Get Brick to the precinct now. They have everything they need to lock him up." Green Arrow said and Spartan and Arsenal nodded as they all headed out.
