I turned to Oliver, ready to ask a series of questions. I started with, "Okay, what do you want from me?" He glanced in my direction, but only for a second because he had to pay attention to the road. "I'm taking you with me because, well, I need you," I couldn't imagine why someone like him would need a person like me. I'm just a senior in high school who finally has a car. "Why? Why am I important?" He sighed and stated, "Hazel, you're different from the rest. You can shoot right?" I nodded slowly, "Shooting bow and arrows? Yes, well, a little bit, I'm out of practice.." He nodded and said, "Good, then you know the basics." I started to grow even more curious. "Okay," I said, "Why do you care if I can shoot? Who are you? What do you need me for?!" He continued to stare at the road and was quiet for a second and then finally told me, "Hazel, have you ever heard of the man in the green hood? The man who's said to be a cruel killer but only fights for the good of this city? Well that's me, and I can't do this job alone." He looked at me and I stared at his green eyes, then another question came through me, "So you're the man in the green hood. But still, I'm an inexperienced "fighter" and there are other people out there that can totally help you. So I am going to ask one more time. Why me?" He stared at me, "Because I trust that you can keep my secret. That I'm Green Arrow."

We arrived at an abandoned building with chains and fences surrounding it. I suddenly grew very nervous. What if he was lying? What if I was literally just abducted by a strange man? I swallowed and walked on, he trusts me for some reason, so I guess I need to trust him. We walk up to a fence and Oliver goes over it with one easy move and smiles at me from the other side. "Come over now," he says like it's a piece of cake. I climbed my way to the top of the fence and swung my leg over awkwardly and climbed down about half way the jumped and landed in front of him. Why did I feel so embarrassed? He nodded towards the large, run down building and we walked toward it. We entered through a hole in the wall then climbed down a ladder to what seem to be a secret hide out. It contained computers, boards with information all over them, and mainly, weapons. Arrows, arrowheads, and knives were in a specific area that I didn't want to go near. He gestured to the entire place and said, "What do you think? Sorry for the lack of light but other than that, I think it's kind of homey." He smiled and waited for my answer, but I was too busy walking around examining everything. "Who are all of these people? Why do you work here? And seriously, what's with all of the weapons?" I asked, staring at the arrowheads. He responded with, "Those people are "the bad guys." I work here because it is an abandoned spot where no one comes, so my secret is safe. And the weapons, well, those are used for stopping those people." "You really are him," I say fascinated, staring at him. He nodded and said, "Come here. I want to see you shoot."
