Hello to all my readers. Chapter 6 is here. The end of the Deadshot episode will be in this chapter.

Also, to point out, the start of this will be solely Ella's POV. For parts of this story that are single POV, the majority will be Ella. Also, since it is Ella's POV, I will be skipping the club scene. Partially because I'm not quite in the mood to write it, and because Ella wouldn't go to a place like that anyway. I'll tie in the club scene somehow, but Ella will not be there. She'll be somewhere else.

Okay let's get started. (Yes, again, i know. Bad title)

Chapter 6- Taking Down a Sniper

Ella slowly wandered around their base below the factory. Her father was going to check out that night club, Poison. She had elected to stay behind. After her experience with a club on Coruscant, she never wanted to go near a club again. Because of that, she was glad of how her dad was giving her her alibi so she wouldn't have to go to his club.

She shook her head. She'd fought against some very intimidating things, and had sewed up her father's shoulder without batting an eye or vomiting. Yet she was scared of nightclubs and paparazzi. She sighed. She knew her dad, and knew he was bound to start using this to tease her sooner or later. And once he started, he wouldn't stop easily.

She shook her head. She had to focus on trying to find Deadshot. But, she had been looking, and had found nothing. So, she decided to do something else.

She slowly walked to her purple case containing her possessions she had brought to the factory. She opened it, and reached for a small box. One of two that was locked with two locks. She waved her hand, using the Force to open them. She pulled them off, then opened it. Inside was a cube, with several gears inside it. She took hold of it, and lifted it out. It was a Holocron. One of two Holocrons her master had given her before sending her to Naboo. They had come with her to Earth, and had been the main way she had been able to train in the ways of the Jedi on Earth.

She looked at the Holocron almost reverently. This particular Holocron had been created by Master Yoda himself. It was her most treasured possession after her lightsaber, whose hilt she had modified to carry a ring her master once wore, the only thing she really had left of her.

She sat down, crosslegged, setting the Holocron down on the floor. She reached out through the Force, letting it flow through her, then reached out to the Holocron through it. It slowly lifted off the ground. It began to glow. Then, it began to glow on one side, and a hologram of Master Yoda appeared.

The hologram began to speak. "The Force, around us, its energy flows. It surrounds us, and binds us. Open your mind, and your thoughts, let them go. Reach out in the Force, and feel its power. With it, know everything that happens around you, you can. See the future you can, if you are strong, and can find that power."

Ella opened her mind. She let the Force flow through her, reaching out through it. She let her mind flow free.

As she did so, she began to feel her father's presence. It was far away, probably at the club, but she could sense him. Then, she began to feel anxiety, and feel a rush within her. She grinned. He'd gotten into a fight. Of course he had. He was Oliver Queen.

Ella let her mind flow more freely, letting the Force in more, opening her mind to what it wanted to show her.

Suddenly, a great rumbling filled her mind. She saw buildings falling. Then, a new image flashed into her mind. She saw her dad fighting a man dressed in black. Then, she saw the city burning. Then, there was the sound of a lightsaber igniting, herself flying back through the street, then a flash of red. Then, the vision ended.

Ella scrambled back. The Holocron shut off, and lowered to the ground. Ella looked at it, stunned at what she had just seen. For the first time, she had had a glimpse of the future. But what had she seen? What did it mean?

Ella sat pondering the meaning of her vision for quite a while. After she had been thinking a while, her father came in. She looked up at him.

He wasted no time. "Alexi called me back. Deadshot's name is Floyd Lawton. Last place he stayed at in Starling was the Papp Hotel, Room 52. Let's go pay him a visit."

Already in her combat outfit, Ella stood up, then put on her cape and mask, and made sure her lightsaber was attached to her belt. Her dad put on his outfit, pulled the hood over his head, made sure his quiver was secured, then hefted his bow and led the way out.

(Papp Hotel)

In his hotel room, Floyd Lawton sat at the computer he had been given, examining some blueprints. These were key to his next target. However, he did not know what was happening outside in the hallway.

Right outside his door stood the Hood and the Witch. They paused outside the door. Lawton was not going to come quietly. So they had to be quick.

Inside, Lawton suddenly sensed something. His raised his head a little, then his door was smashed open. The Hood was standing in the doorway, drawing an arrow. The Witch stood behind him. Lawton dived behind the bed as the Hood fired an arrow. The arrow embedded itself in the back of the chair he had just occupied. Then, he popped back up, firing at the two with a gun strapped to his wrist. The Hood ducked aside, while the Witch activated her laser sword and swung it around, deflecting the bullets.

When Lawton stopped firing, the Hood leaned back into the room and fired an arrow. Lawton dodged it. The Hood fired again. Lawton raised the mattress to block it. Then, he fired again. The Hood ducked out of the room again, while the Witch continued to block his bullets. Then, Lawton suddenly stopped before running to the window and leaping out of it.

The Hood and Witch ran to the window. They looked out, but couldn't see Lawton. They then walked back into the room, grabbed the laptop Lawton had been blocking at, which had been hit by bullets, and hurried out. They had to find a way to get information from that laptop.

(The next day, Queen Consolidated)

In the IT Department at Queen Consolidated, Oliver and Ella approached the desk of a young lady who was busy at her computer. After asking around, they'd been told to come to this lady for help with the laptop. They'd been unable to find anything themselves, so they'd come here in hopes they'd find someone who could.

As he got to her desk, Oliver cleared his throat and asked, "Felicity Smoak?" Felicity turned to look at him. "Hi, I'm Oliver Queen. And this is my daughter, Ella."

"Of course," she said, "I know who you are. You're Mr. Queen."

"No, Mr. Queen was my father," Oliver said. "Right, but he's dead, I mean, drowned. But you didn't, which means you could come down to the I.T. Department and listen to me babble. Which will end. In 3...2...1."

Oliver and Ella looked at her with amusement. After a moment, Oliver brought out the laptop and said, "I'm having some trouble with my computer and they told me you were the person to come see."

He set the laptop down on her desk. Felicity leaned in to get a better look at it. Oliver tried to explain it's sad state. "I was at a coffee shop, surfing the web, and I spilt a latte on it."

"Really?" Felicity asked. "Yeah," said Oliver. Ella rolled her eyes a little. Her dad was terrible with improvisation. Felicity pointed out the obvious hole in that story by saying, "Cause these look like bullet holes."

"My coffee shop is in a bad neighborhood," Oliver said. Felicity looked at him with skepticism. Ella decided to help things along a little. She waved her hand a little, trying to keep it from being visible, and said, "You'll look into this laptop and scavenge anything you can find."

Felicity looked at her and said, "I'll look into this laptop and scavenge anything I can find."

As he and Ella stood there while Felicity hooked some cables up to it, Oliver whispered to Ella, "It still makes me feel a little nervous you can do that." Ella smirked and whispered back, "Why? Because it means I can make you do almost anything I want?" "Bingo," Oliver said.

Soon, Felicity had it all hooked up and was running the operation extract information from it. Soon, a display popped up on her screen. It was blueprints.

"Looks like blueprints," Felicity confirmed. "Do you know what of?" Oliver asked. "The exchange building," Felicity responded. "Never heard of it," Oliver said.

"It's where the Unidac Industries auction is scheduled to take place," Felicity said. When Oliver looked a little confused, Felicity said, "I thought that was your laptop."

"It was," Ella cut in to help her dad, "But he's not the only one who uses it."

Felicity had a strange look on her face, but continued, "Look, I don't want to get in the middle of some Shakespearian family drama thing." Oliver and Ella both looked confused. "What?" Oliver asked.

"Mr. Steele marrying your mom," Felicity said, "Claudius, Gertrude…Hamlet?" Ella had no idea what those names meant, but guessed they had something to do with Shakespeare. And yes, she did know who that was. She had read some of his plays since coming to Starling, and actually found them quite interesting. She had imagined a few times what it would be like if he'd lived on Coruscant or Naboo.

"I didn't study Shakespeare at any of the four schools that I dropped out of," Oliver said.

Felicity apparently decided to simplify it. "Mr. Steele is trying to buy Unidac Industries. And you've got a company laptop associated with one of the guys he's competing against."

"Floyd Lawton," Oliver quickly said. "No," Felicity said in confusion, "Warren Patel. Who's Floyd Lawton?"

"An employee of Mr. Patel, apparently," Oliver said.

Oliver voice-over: The exchange building is surrounded by 3 buildings with eye lines into the building. Ella voice-over: Lawton can get his kill shot off from virtually anywhere. Oliver voice-over: But we can't cover the area. We can't protect all of Deadshot's targets. We can't do this alone.

(The police station, that night)

Quentin walked towards where his car was parked, ready to head home for the night.

All of a sudden, he was grabbed and pushed against the hood of his car. "Ah, you son of a *****!" he shouted.

"Detective, quiet!" said a gruff voice. That and the hum he could hear told him who this was.

"You've got a pair on you, pulling this right outside the police station," Quentin growled.

"Floyd Lawton's the one targeting the buyers interested in Unidac Industries. Interpol calls him 'Deadshot' because he never misses. You can look this up after I go," said the Hood.

"Yeah, and stop chasing you, I suppose," Quentin responded.

The Witch spoke up. "Warren Patel hired Lawton. I can't be sure who they're targeting, it might be all the buyers, and we can't protect them in a space that big. We need your help."

"Yeah, professional help," Quentin taunted. "Lawton laces his bullets with curare. Tell your men to wear Kevlar."

"I'll tell them to shoot you-" Quentin started, but he was suddenly released as an arrow was fired into the hood right next to him. When he stood up, he saw a laptop sitting on the hood, with no sign of the two vigilantes. Lance looked around, unsure of what to do.

(The exchange building)

Oliver walked along the terrace above where the bidders were gathered. The auction was about to begin.

Ella was not with him. He said he'd left her at the house, as she wanted some alone time, and to explore the grounds around the mansion. In reality, she was waiting outside in an alley, all dressed in her outfit, and her lightsaber at her belt, ready to spring into action.

Oliver came to the railing. Walter was walking off to prepare for the auction. He had his eye on Patel, who was talking with his aides. Then, he saw Detective Hilton walking down the stairs.

"I've got him," Hilton said into his radio before walking up to Patel and saying, "Warren Patel, I'm going to need you to come with me, sir." Oliver watched as Hilton led Patel away.

Further along the terrace, Quentin was watching it too. He lifted his radio and called into it, "Unit 1, all clear. Unit 2, you copy?" "We have Patel in custody. Still no sign of Lawton," Hilton responded.

"Unit 3," Quentin called. "I'm at the northwest perimeter. All clear," a female officer called.

"Unit 4," Quentin called. "Parking structure is secure," a male officer responded.

"Unit 5, what's your status?" Quentin called. "This is Unit Five. All clear," a male officer responded.

Quentin put his radio down, unaware that last "male officer" was actually Floyd Lawton, who was preparing to make his final kills, the body of a newly dead police officer resting against a pillar.

Oliver walked down the stairs and started walking through the hall, trying to find Walter. Right as he was about to enter another hall, he saw Quentin, and stopped.

"Well, don't you scrub up nice," Quentin said. "Just here to support my family," Oliver said.

"Yeah, me, too, G** help me," Quentin said. "Thank you," Oliver said. Quentin just looked at him, then turned away, before realizing something and turning back to him.

"Where's your daughter?" he asked. As much as he hated Oliver, he was really starting to like Ella.

"She's at home. This isn't exactly her kind of scene. She doesn't do very well with large crowds. And you should've seen her the other day when paparazzi swarmed us outside Queen Consolidated," Oliver said with a smile, drawing a small grin from Quentin too, "She thought she'd stay home and watch some movies. She's really started getting into the Lord of the Rings. Thinks its the best thing she's ever seen."

Quentin smiled a little. 'Well, tell her I said hi," he said before walking off.

Oliver then continued on, walking towards Diggle, who he quickly spotted. He quickly called to Ella over their earpieces, "Any sign of him?" "Not yet, Dad. All clear," she responded.

Oliver reached Diggle and said, "Dig. Got your eyes open?" "That's what I'm here for, sir. That and answering patronizing questions," Diggle said.

"This guy;s out of time," Oliver said, almost to himself, "If he's going to do something, it's going to happen before the auction." Diggle looked at him, confused. "Sir?" he asked to clarify.

"I heard the story on the radio," Oliver said.

"Oliver," Walter called, interrupting the moment of awkwardness. Oliver walked over to where Walter stood.

"So pleased you were able to attend," Walter said as Oliver approached, "Though a little disappointed Ella was not able to make it."

"Walter, the police said that some of the Unidac bidders were murdered," Oliver said, unaware that Lawton was setting up for his shot, "I just think that we should be a little bit more careful. My mother's already lost a husband."

Down outside the building, Ella sensed something through the Force. Instantly, she knew what was coming, and began using the Force to assist her in leaping up the side of the building, desperate to get to where the auction was going to be.

"Well, if Moira shared your concern, she wouldn't have come, and she definitely wouldn't have brought your sister," Walter said, pointing his glass. Oliver turned and saw Moira and Thea standing a little ways off.

Oliver began making his way towards them, still unaware of Lawton, and the fact he was taking aim at Walter.

Oliver reached Moira and Thea. When she noticed him, Moira smiled and said, "Oliver what a wonderful surprise. Where's Ella?"

Oliver motioned to Diggle to come, then said, "She's at home, where you should be." Then, when Diggle reached them, he said to him, "I need you to get them out of here, right now."

From his position, Lawton activated his laser pointer, to make sure he had his target. Unfortunately, Walter was in the midst of a lot of people, and the red dot that appeared on his chest did not go unnoticed before a Detective Quentin Lance, who rushed at Walter, grabbing him just as Lawton fired. Quentin and Walter hit the ground, the bullet missing them and striking a waiter, who collapsed.

The place went into chaos. Suddenly, just as Lawton fired his next shot, there was the sound of breaking glass, and a strange noise. Those who weren't running away turned to see the Witch leaping through a now broken window, her laser sword glowing in her hand. She swung the blade, just managing to deflect the shot.

Oliver put his hand on Thea's cheek, asking, "Are you ok?" When she nodded, he asked his mom, "Are you hurt?" "No, I'm fine. Where is Walter?" Moira asked. Oliver turned, seeing Quentin trying to hurry Walter out of the room, and Ella standing protectively over them, twirling her lightsaber, blocking the shots.

"Walter's fine," Oliver said. "Sir, I have to get you out of here," Diggle said. "No, them!" Oliver ordered.

Oliver hurried off. Diggle told the two women, "God, go, I'll find him. Ma'am, I'll find him," when Moira seemed to reluctant to move on without him. Moira gave in, and Diggle hurried them out.

As Quentin tried to hurry Walter out, a flying shard of glass cut through his leg, causing him to fall. Walter stopped and shouted, "Are you okay, Detective?" "I'm fine," said Quentin, struggling to get to his feet.

There was the sound of another shot as Quentin glanced back at the window. Suddenly, the Witch was standing over him, swinging her laser sword. Quentin heard more shots, and heard several strange noises as the Witch swung her laser sword. Quentin realized she was deflecting the bullets, protecting him.

"Go, Detective! I've got this!" she shouted in a voice that made it clear she was trying to disguise her voice. Quentin obeyed, getting up and hurrying Walter the rest of the way out of the room.

Elsewhere in the building, Olive rushed up the stairs. He stopped at a trash can, where he pulled out a bag with his outfit and weapons. He then continued hurrying up the stairs, unaware that Diggle was following him.

(Floyd Lawton's building)

As Lawton sat there, wondering what to do next, He sensed something. Then, something smashed through the window. It was the Hood.

Lawton raised his arm, firing the gun device on his wrist. The Hood took cover behind a pillar.

For the next few moments, the two exchanged shots, each dodging the other's shots. Then, they stopped. Lawton slowly crept out from behind some scaffolding, the gun on his wrist raised.

As he scoured the area, he was suddenly kicked in the back of the head by the Hood. He quickly got to his feet. The Hood leaped on top of some scaffolding. Lawton fired, but the Hood dodged, then grabbed him and swung himself off, bringing Lawton down with him. Lawton scrambled to his feet, when the Witch smashed through a window. He fired at her, but she easily blocked all his bullets. She then leaped at him, swinging her laser sword. He tried to dodge, but she cut off his right hand. He staggered, firing wildly, until the Hood shot an arrow, which smashed through the device over his right eye and entered his eye. Lawton fell to the ground.

The Hood and the Witch looked down at their vanquished foe. Then a groan caught their attention. They whipped around, the Hood preparing to fire, until they saw Diggle leaning against the door, holding a spot on his torso, making it clear what was happening. The two hurried over and picked him up. They had to get him to the factory quick.

(The factory)

By the time they made it to the factory, Diggle was getting worse. Oliver and Ella hurried to find the herbs and some water. Quickly, they mixed together what they needed, then poured the concoction right before he passed out.

When Diggle woke some time later, he looked around, trying to figure out where he was. Then, he saw something that stunned him. Oliver and Ella stood before him, dressed in the clothes of the vigilantes, and Ella holding the purple laser sword in her hand.

Diggle just looked at them in stunned silence as they both said, "Hey."

Think I'll end right there.

Hope this chapter was satisfying. I know I haven't started flashbacks yet. But, by doing so, I've been able to keep with two chapters per episode. However, I will start doing them when Oliver first meets Ella on the island. You'll find out when that is soon enough.

For now, just review, and wait for the next chapter.
