"Dig, Oliver's in trouble." Felicity couldn't tear her eyes away from the security feed she'd been monitoring.

-I'm kind of busy here, how bad is it?- Diggle responded over the radio.

-I'm fine.- Oliver snapped.

"Liar. If you're fine, why aren't you getting up?"

-I didn't see any cameras.- Oliver grunted.

"It's connected to the internet and monitored by a third party surveillance. Duh. Don't worry, I cut the feed, no one else saw you fall."

-He fell?- Diggle asked.

"His knee gave out as he jumped. He fell off the roof, and hit the fire escape."

-I caught the fire escape. I didn't fall.- Oliver's voice cut in again, sounding more than a little agitated. -Keep to the plan.-

"Are the bad guys gone?" Felicity asked.

-Yeah. They're headed back to their base, Dig, move fast.-

Felicity listened to Diggle engage their mark. Oliver's role had been to lure the goons away while Diggle snuck in around the back to grab the Boss and drag him off somewhere more private and confront him properly. If they were keeping with the plan, Diggle wasn't going to be able to check on Oliver any time soon.

She grabbed her purse and picked up her phone and placed the Bluetooth headset in her ear. "Dig, I'm going to go help Oliver, I'll be offline for a while."

-Be safe, call me if you have problems.- Diggle answered.

Oliver spoke up next. -Not a good idea.-

"Too bad. I'm already on my way." She jogged to her car and started the engine. It would take about fifteen minutes to get to Oliver's location if she drove fast. She hoped her new app designed to sync the city's green traffic signals to her route to would make the drive even faster. "How bad are you hurt?"

She heard some huffing and a thud before Oliver breathed out deeply and coughed. -I'm not going anywhere.-

"Not going anywhere as in not getting up and walking away or not going anywhere as in not dying?"

-Both. Don't worry, I've had worse.-

"Why is it so hard for you to admit you need help? You never went and got your leg checked out, did you? You're not alone on an island anymore."

-How is that helping?-

"Stop trying to do everything yourself. "

A minute passed between hearing anything from him and Felicity didn't like the silence, even though she was aware it was probably in response to her lecturing him."Talk to me while I drive. Just so I know you're not dead or something."

He must have picked up on the worry in her voice because he responded right away. -Or something? What would the or something be?-

"In a coma, or unconscious. Kidnapped by aliens."

-Alien abductions are a big issue these days?-

"I guess you wouldn't have heard about that. An alien base was found on the dark side of the moon three years ago. NASA thinks they're behind the increase of missing persons cases." Felicity answered.

-What?-

"Just kidding. But I had you for a second didn't I?"

-No.-

"Keep talking. More than one word sentences would be preferable."

-What do you want me to talk about?-

"Tell me about Thea. What was she like when she was younger?"

She heard Oliver cough a bit, and then he started. -I used to call her Speedy cause she was always running all over the place. There was one time we were at the family cabin ….-

Felicity listened as she followed the GPS towards Oliver's location. "I'm close. Where are you?"

"In the alley."

The neighborhood was dark and there weren't any people around. She pulled into the alley. "I don't see you."

-Give me a minute.-

"I'll come help." She took out the keys and pocketed them just in case before getting out. Something moved behind the garbage bin and Felicity ran towards it. She used her phone as a flashlight and Oliver squinted against the harsh light as she shined it in his direction.

He took her hand and let her help him up and to the car.
