Thank you all who have read this story. This is concluding the Merlyn arch. I will continue this story with a new arch and that's how it will work. Every 5-8 chapters will be its own storyline but I may put in a short chapter story in here and there. Hope you enjoy

Roy grabbed an arrow on the ground which had fallen out of his quiver during the fight and jabbed it into Merlyn's arm, causing him to fall to the side, Roy gave a finishing blow knocking him out. He then shot an arrow at the restraints freeing his friends.

"Roy are you ok?" Felicity asked.

"No this blood on my face is just a new fashion trend." Roy said as he fell into Ted and Laurel who brought him to his feet.

"Roy, John he…" Laurel started to say.

"He's dead." Roy said catching his breath.

Ground Floor

Thea walked out of the elevator when Captain Lance and a SWAT team stormed in.

"Thea, is that you? What are you doing with that sword? Oh God." Lance said as he realized which side Thea was on.

One of the SWAT officers aimed his gun at Thea, before he could fire Thea sliced off his hand a couple more tried to shoot but she dodged causing the bullets to obliterate the handless officer. She then kicked one of the officers into a computer frying his brain then sliced the torso off the other officer and finally threw her sword into the last one. Lance then aimed his gun at her head.

"Listen, I don't want to hurt you, but what the hell are you doing?" Lance demanded but was met with a spin kick in the abdomen and a broken arm. Thea grabbed her sword and prepared to finish him off but hesitated.

"Thea come on, I know you're a good person." Lance pleaded.

Thea struck the floor next to him, it seemed to have taken all her strength not to kill him and then left the building killing anyone who got in her way.

The Foundry

Roy, Laurel, Ted, Ray and Felicity walked in and placed Merlyn in a cage.

"You did it, Roy you stopped him all by yourself." Ted congratulated Roy who was sitting down.

"Don't give him all the credit." Barry said as he and Robin walked in with street clothes but Robin had a red hoodie over his head and wore sunglasses.

"Barry." Felicity said as she walked up to him and gave him a hug.

"Hey Felicity." Barry said.

"Is something wrong you seem off." Ray said from across the room.

"I'll explain later." Barry said dodging the question.

"Who are you?" Laurel asked who only just seemed to notice Robin in the room.

"Um…" Robin said shyly.

"He's a real boy wonder." Roy said while standing up. "You take care of the missiles?"

"Yeah, we nailed it." Barry said.

"So what do we do with him?" Ted said looking at Merlyn causing everyone to stare at him.

"Boy don't I love being the center of attention." Merlyn said.

"You will be for your death." Ra's Al Ghul said as he walked in with 7 members of the league.

Everyone raised their weapons. Barry tried to run up to him but then was met with a punch in the gut.

"I just derailed the one who can run so fast that he can alter time do you really think that's going to work?" Ra's said calmly.

Everyone put their weapons down.

"What do you want?" Roy asked angrily.

"Merely for the one who has angered the league to be killed." Ra's said as he turned to Merlyn. "I am truly sorry about the death of Oliver Queen, It's not the first time someone has been killed as collateral damage of the league's actions" Ra's said as he turned to both Roy and Robin. "How many of you does the detective have running around?" He said to Robin.

Robin tensed up almost pulling out a batarang but resisted.

"Do you really think we are going to forgive you for what you have done?" Felicity demanded.

"There are very few luxuries I have; forgiveness isn't one of them." Ra's said as he gestured for his soldiers to grab Merlyn.

"No please!" Merlyn begged as he was forced to his knees before Ra's.

"Bow before Ra's Al Ghul." Ra's commanded. "What is it that you say? You have failed this city?" Ra's said smugly he then gestured for Ra's to be taken outside and his men did so, Merlyn screamed while on his journey.

"I'm gonna take a wild guess that you're not going to show us your sorrow for Oliver's death." Laurel said.

"Laurel it's not like he can bring him back to life." Ted said putting a hand on her shoulder.

Ra's smirked.

"You can bring him back to life!" Roy shouted.

"Ask your young friend here if that's a good decision." Ra's said while taking a step back.

Everyone turned to Robin, the tension was consuming the room.

"I told you that there were other guys before me to done the R on their chest. Well the first was a good guy he's like the big brother I never had, but the last guy… died and Ra's tried to bring him back. It worked but... He went insane, he became a murderous vigilante, he wasn't human anymore. He attacked me I was 10, I was scared out of my mind. He killed my Mom, right in front of me. Bat's, I didn't know him at the time. He went dark, he found the guy responsible for his death in the first place and he would've killed him if it wasn't for a friend of ours with powers and he barely got him to stop.

"What kind of powers?" Felicity asked.

"Faster than a speeding bullet, can jump tall buildings in a single bound, has the strength of a thousand guys," Robin muttered.

"Who was he?" Roy asked.

"Doesn't matter, he's not ready to be outed yet." Robin said. "Don't even consider resurrecting him, you won't get Oliver back, heck you'll just lose yourselves in the process." Robin muttered as a tear fell from his eye.

Ra's left realizing that he will no longer be required.

"Oliver Queen is dead. John Diggle is dead. Dr. Lockhart is dead and Thea, shit Thea." Roy said as he turned to Felicity.

"Oh my God." Felicity cried as she typed in Thea's name.

Glades Memorial

Lance lay in his bed trying to cope with the carnage he just saw, Roy entered through the window in his suit.

"You took a while." Lance said staring at a wall.

"No one to let us in, one of the many benefits that Lockhart gave us." Roy said.

"I assume you know about Thea." Lance said.

Roy sat at the edge of his bed.

"What's up with the Queen's, their family was messed up" Lance said faking a smile.

"Detective I went up against a pretty bizarre one recently." Roy said.

"So what about Merlyn?" Lance said.

"The league took him." Roy said.

"Not that Merlyn." Lance said turning to Roy.

"Felicity tracked her to a train headed to L.A" Roy said hiding is emotions behind the modulator.

"So she went across the state. That's gonna stop you." Lance said.

"Laurel's moving to Seattle, she wanted me to tell you. Ray's headed to Ivy Town and Ted said he'll be at the gym; he'd help us if its's big." Roy said.

"What about the speedster and the sidekick?" Lance asked.

"Headed back to Central City and Gotham respectively, we're stretched too thin to leave the city." Roy said sheepishly.

"Just you and the blonde?" Lance asked.

"Yeah, not much of a team is it?" Roy said.

"I've buried my fair share of officers. You need to keep moving forward, and honor those who did the same." Lance said.

Warner Zytle's Prison Cell

Zytle was on edge he was sitting in the corner of the room shaking with fear.

"What a disappointment you are." A man entered the room, he was wearing a long trench coat and was using a cane, but his face was bathed in shadow.

"No! please!" Zytle screamed.

"What's with Starling city and vertigo, they just don't mix, you are the second of one of my followers to fail. That never happens." The man said.

"Please let me live, please." Zytle begged.

"Don't worry you can still be of use to me, I need you to send a message to the vigilantes." The man said.

"Yes of course what is it." Zytle looked up thinking that he had some hope.

"let's see how they can handle the true Count Vertigo! But you don't need to be alive to send that message" The man said while raising his cane which emitted a shockwave.

Zytle got up.

"Yes my liege, Yes Count Vertigo!" Zytle said in trance he then proceeded to walk to the sink and slammed his head down causing his skull to crack open and for him to die in a pool of blood.

Starling City North Cemetery.

Felicity, Ray, Roy, Ted Laurel and Lance walked up to Oliver's freshly buried grave. After the funeral Roy sat at Oliver's grave on his own drifting off into his mind. Felicity approached him.

"Roy, we need to go." Felicity said trying to be considerate.

"Why?" He asked.

"We've got a job to do." Felicity said strongly.

Roy got up.

"What is it?" Roy asked while turning to face her.

"Corrupt politician who makes the poor poorer and rich richer, not to mention the numerous terrorist attacks against minorities he's helped orchestrate." Felicity said smugly.

"Looks like he's about to find out what being poor is like."
