Ok, so apparently I'm on a Crocks streak. I got a comment from ZS saying something about how Sportsmaster should confront Roy and, well, I couldn't resist. This will be the last chapter that I will post before camp though.

This is short. I know it's short, but really, there isn't much more I could right. So, it's short and sweet.

DISCLAIMER: I own nothing. I don't even own the idea this time.


Ok, he said he wouldn't interfere anymore, but there was one thing he had to do first.

"Hello, Arrow Jr."

The kid whirled around, shocked, automatically reaching for some weapon that Sportsmaster knew he would have hidden, especially if he was hanging around Jade. He smirked and held up his hands in a peace gesture. "I'm not here to attack you or anything. Just want to talk. Calm down." The kid relaxed a bit, but kept his guard up, obviously not trusting him.

Smart kid.

"What do you want?" He demanded. "I want to warn you: don't hurt my daughter. I know you're married and I know you forced her to leave once already. Don't let it happen again, or I will personally come and kill you. Whatever there is left once she's done with you, that is." The kid stared at him like he had two heads. "Are you saying you care about Jade? Since when did you give a crap?"

Sportsmaster turned to leave. "I always have. I just have a funny way of showing it." He disappeared, leaving behind a "Don't mess up, Arrow."

Roy blinked a few times and leaned against the side of the building. "Jade is never going to believe that just happened. Maybe I can ask 'Wing to hack the security cams and show her the footage or something…" he muttered, then continued on his way, casting one last glance towards where Crock had disappeared.

Great. Now, not only did he have to deal with his ex-assassin wife, but her crazy assassin father who would have no qualms about killing him.

Terrific.


Yeah, I know these past few chapters haven't had much to do with Will, but oh well. They have to do with things that were mentioned in the main story, so it's alright.

See you after camp
