Dawn sat rubbing at her arm. Clark better be clear out of Metropolis when they get back. "Are you sure this is a good idea? Now not only am I a pint short for the big fight but you're weaponizing my blood. Buffy you really think my blood will be enough and not cause trouble. My blood isn't exactly safe as is."

Buffy nodded. "According to Emil it works like a serum. So your blood is enough."

Sara walked out hearing the tail end. "Who's Emil?"

"A doctor" Buffy answered. "He's put each of us back together at least once. He's also the second worst person I fear if he'd ever defect from the league."

Dawn looked at her curiously. "So, who's the big gun you fear defecting?"

Buffy looked at her with a smile. "Your husband"

Dawn looked at her appalled and steaming from the ears a bit in annoyance. "Hey I'm not the one that boinked the soul out of my first love. Besides what about Clark terrifies you so much you put him above Kara."

Buffy glared at her little sister as both Olivers came out. "Because I'm pretty sure we can take Kara if she went renegade. Clark it's not just the power or the fact that he's Superman Earth's greatest hero. It's not Superman that scares me as much as that it's Clark. Even if he's dead wrong half the League would join him anyway just because it's Clark."

Buffy's husband glared at her. "Thanks honey, now I'm terrified of the boyscout."

Buffy gave an innocent shrug. "Well in an hour or two we'll have an army of super soldiers. You'll have brand new nightmares."

Ollie smiled. "You're right."

"You know how many arguments we could save if you just remembered that every time from now on?" Buffy asked.

Oliver looked at the happy couple like they were insane. "Given what's lying ahead of us do you really think jokes are a good idea right now?'

Buffy looked at him. "Please if I stopped living and smiling every time the world got bad on me I would have never made it to 16."

Dawn looked at them and rolled her eyes. "And on that happy note, I'll be on the roof getting the first wave ready."

Oliver watched Dawn as her eyes glowed green and the brunette witch calmly floated up to the roof of the Queen mansion. "Wow, I saw magic before but it was…"

"Chaotic, caused death, all around bad?" Buffy filled in for him causing Oliver to nod.

"Well… yeah." Oliver replied.

Buffy nodded. "It usually is. We keep eyes on Willow, Dawn, Dr. Fate, and Zatanna as powerful as we are they can sneeze and we're gone."

Oliver looked at her intrigued. "How much backup do you have in your world?"

Buffy shrugged. "That's a number I stopped counting a long time ago. It started with the Justice Society in the 1970s. Then I turned the council on its head by making every girl that could be a slayer an actual slayer starting the worldwide watcher's council. Then me and Dawn met Ollie and Clark in Smallville. And although we didn't know it at the time. The meeting between that farm boy and a billionaire was the smallest thing, but it quickly grew into the largest."

"What's that?" Oliver asked.

Buffy smiled. "The Justice League that merged with the society and the council helps out in big apocalypse level threats. Hell I've lost count how many we're up to. We even have Doctors on call for when we get hurt."

Oliver looked at her confused this world definitely baffles him. "You hire doctors like on call?"

Buffy nodded. "Though Ollie scared the first wave of doctors away by shooting one in the leg with an arrow."

Oliver looked at his alternate self disappointed.

Ollie shrugged innocently. "What? He was putting the 'moves' and I use that term loosely on Huntress and insulted her daughter. If I didn't shoot him in the leg there was a good chance Faith would have shot him in the eye. Besides if you had a Carter Bowen you'd understand entirely… entitled jackass."

Oliver looked at him and cracked. "You shot Carter Bowen… do you have a DVD of it?"

Ollie nodded with a smile. "Yep, right next to my Vegas Wedding to Buffy and our home movie wedding nig- ughhh…"

Oliver smiled watching Buffy elbow her husband as the other Green Arrow crumbled to the ground.

Diggle came out with a seemingly back to normal Roy. "What happened to the other Oliver?"

Buffy looked down at him. "Cat got his tongue."

"And my wife got my lung." Ollie finished from the floor.

Oliver turned to Buffy. "Think you can get some help from your league."

Buffy shook her head sadly not enough time and they need Dawn for the Mirakuru army. "No, but since Slade and Isa I'm a psycho skank sick freak necrophilia geezer humping Rosemary baby ho bitch are here I'm willing to bet the rest of the league are too. You just gotta find em when you have the time and if you need the help." She said a bit of venom in her voice at the woman's name.

Diggle watched as Buffy walked calmly into the house. "What was she so upset about?"

Roy shook his head. He just woke up six seconds after getting injected with some woman's blood. How is he supposed to know? "I have no idea, kind of impressed though. That was like eight burns at Isabel in one sentence."

Ollie shook his head. "Don't blame her for that. Truth of the matter is we've both thought of resurrecting Isabel just so we can see her die again. We faced a lot of bad guys in our lives. Isabel was the worst and she didn't even need a costume."

"What happened?" Roy asked.

Ollie kept his focus on the front yard but started. "My parents ran Queen Consolidated. They died when I was a kid so when I was older I didn't want to be known as Robert Queen's son so I rechristened it Queen Industries when I was old enough to take over. I met Isabel three years after the battle of Metropolis. She was representing a company Zedmore or was it… doesn't matter. The point was since my parents died at a young age I never had a chance to find out about my dad and Isabel."

Diggle's eyes widened. "Wait you mean Isabel and your father…" He turned to Oliver whom now had the Stone Cold face of the Hood from last year daring him to say a word if he wants to die. Diggle turned around and let it drop. He guesses Oliver has been throwing up recently given what he did with the young woman.

Roy looked at him. "So how does that equal Buffy not liking her?"

Ollie shook his head looking back now. He was so happy at the good he was doing for his city he never even thought hemight be in danger. "We had just finished a deal that got Star City hundreds of millions and more importantly jobs for thousands upon thousands of people. She insisted we celebrate. Looking back I should have realized how much she was trying to push that wine down my throat."

Roy looked at something resembling his mentor. He really wishes Felicity was more open with the details other then 'wake up there's two Olivers. "So she drugged you?"

Ollie glared at the young man. "Yeah. I was a playboy in my youth happily committed with Buffy since she hit me with a rock…"

Oliver let out something under breath knowing his Isabel would have likely taken it that far if she needed to. "That's sick!"

Ollie nodded. "Have you not been paying attention, that's Isabel! She disappeared came back ten months later…"

Diggle's eyes widened. "No, don't tell me."

"Baby in her arms." Ollie finished. "She announced she was carrying my son. And with security cameras destroyed and my playboy past… no one but the League believed what really happened so she not only walked but gained full custody. And little did I know when I made Queen Industries it was just an affiliate of Queen Consolidated. And in accordance to my Father's will if there's no CEO any Queen heir can run Queen Consolidated if they see themselves fit. So guess who made themselves CEO via proxy."

Roy looked down in disgust at what this alternate version of Isabel had done. "Yeah, your Isabel is far sicker then ours. So who killed her?"

"Vordigan" Ollie answered. "I think he legitimately thought I was in a polygamous relationship with Buffy and Isabel."

Oliver's eyes rose. "Which made her an abomination to your League's code?"

Ollie nodded. "Me and Buffy showed up in time to fight him off and while we were fighting Isabel's sister Sandra took the baby and disappeared without a trail. And because we don't know if Vordigan can hack into our systems we can't really look for him as much as we want to. Willow made sure the world knew what kind of monster Isabel was in the end by restoring the security footage but Sandra changed her identity as far as we can tell and disappeared completely taking my son with her. All I have of him is archive security footage."

Roy looked at him. "Well feel free to take some frustration out on our Isabel I can tell you first hand the Mirakuru will heal most of the damage anyway."

Ollie nodded solemnly then walked into the house.

Oliver turned to Roy. "So how are you holding up?"

"Very confused." Roy replied. "One minute Slade grabbed me from the shelter next thing I know Felicity is giving me a blood transfusion. According to her I did a lot of damage."

"Wasn't you." Oliver replied.

Roy shook his head. "Doesn't mean I'm not looking for a little payback"

"Then remember your training." Oliver handed him a box. "Remember everything that you've learned."

Roy opened the box and saw a red mask similar to Oliver's. "Are you serious?"

Oliver looked at him… hopefully he won't find out this came from the Huntress. "Someone… a friend once told me that if you survive a crucible you come out changed, stronger for it." He pointed to the mask. "This is to remind you of that. Also we have a Mirakuru army coming our way so every archer helps."

Detective Lance looked around seeing the little girl from earlier along with his eldest Laurel along with Moira and Thea Queen. "So why are we here again?"

Sara looked at him now fully dressed as the Canary with Oliver's bow. "Because a mad man is trying to level the city. You guys represent everything decent in it. The last honest cop, the one ADA not warped by Brother Blood. Blood already tried to kill Mrs. Queen and he will try again." Sara turned to her father. "You're the last line of defense."

"Hey!" Elizabeth protested.

Sara pointed to the little girl. "After her"

Sara smiled and locked the door as she headed up to the roof taking her place on the great wall of hurt with a line of archers and injection arrows. She looked at Oliver with a smile seeing him with his weapon for tonight. Diggle and Felicity had dug it out from the Glades. "So, are you using Shado's bow out of necessity or to screw with Slade?"

"A little bit of both." Oliver replied looking at Dawn. "How is she so calm? She's practically asleep."

Buffy turned to her sister. "It's not practically, she is asleep in a meditative state. Technically her body is asleep but she's still here in astral form. It's how she uses the Big Mojo... or keep from killing her husband… depends on the day of the week it is."

Diggle looked and just waved his hands in front of Dawn's face. "Isn't she concerned about being blind sided?"

"That's what we're here for." Buffy replied. "When she's in astral form she's defenseless. We're here to make sure she's not."

"So why is she doing it?" Roy asked.

Buffy smiled. "Because that's how she does the big spells. Were you not listening?"

Diggle looked at Buffy. "Big?" Diggle nearly cowered from Dawn's eyes disappearing being replaced with green orbs and the sudden lightning strikes as the sky howled in fury unleashing a rain storm. "Did she just?"

Dawn's eyes turned back to normal. "Alright the rain storm should keep the rest of Starling indoors…" She looked to see Diggle half terrified. "What?"

Ollie kept his eyes focused he might goof around a bit more then his darker counterpart but his eyes are just as good if not better. He watches seeing the army coming through the rain. "OK, that's a lot of Deathstrokes."

Oliver looked at the upcoming threat. "Slade broke them out of prison. They're all on Mirakuru."

Buffy took her bow off her back. "Dawn?"

"I'm ready." The younger Summers replied.

"Do it." Buffy ordered.

Dawn smiled as her eyes glowed green and she went right back into a trance. Six years of practice has made it easier to get ready for.

Oliver quickly notched a bow with Roy a much easier grip on his bow without the Japanese super drug in his system. The other archers quickly followed taking down six.

Buffy smiled knocking another one down. "Dawn!"

"I got it!"

Slade felt a series of vibrations all around him and heard a devastating sound pushing through breaking all the glass of nearby cars. He turns behind him and before long waves of water shot out at the Mirakuru army knocking the whole army off their feet.

Buffy turned to her sister. "That was a puddle to compared to what it can be usually."

Dawn glared at her older sister. "I've been teleporting people through cities and dimensions… I'm still not up to full strength sue me alright."

Ollie looked around doing a headcount. "Guys we got a problem. Vordigan and Isabel aren't among the people here."

Oliver looked around seeing the empty space. "Where are they?"

Ollie looked around in his glasses looking through the masses. "They went through the escape tunnel!"

Oliver looked at him confused. "Escape tunnel?"

Ollie rolled his eyes in disbelief. "How do you not… never mind. There's a hidden escape in this house. If it's just like mine it will be on the left side of the house. Dark Archer let's go."

Oliver hit the mic. "Felicity?"

"There was an explosion about a minute ago I thought it was one of your arrows in the chaos."

Buffy shot out a cure shot taking down another whacko. "Go, I can lead from here."

Oliver nodded and went after the other two archers. He got close but was quickly tackled down to the floor by Deathstroke.

Slade picked him up and effortlessly threw him into a tree. "So did you know Sara was pregnant when you sacrificed Shado for her?"

Oliver looked at him for a moment before replying. "Yes!"

Slade snarled and ran at him full of anger for his brother's duplicitous nature.

Hours Earlier (Because what's arrow without flashbacks)

Oliver followed his alternate universe counterpart out on what has been quite the weird day. "It's weird to believe there's a multiverse out there."

Ollie nodded looking at a picture seeing a younger and more innocent Oliver next to a girl in matching red robes and hats holding up diplomas letting him see the name. "You think I'm weird. You should see our Dinah compared to yours."

Oliver walked and saw something of teenage Laurel but something far more troubling in the text message below. (Don't turn around. Your house was wired when I got here disabled but can still work.) He quickly pulled out his own phone careful to avoid the camera. (What do we do?)

Ollie typed on his phone (use it and bring the others in on it).

Oliver walked with Sara ready to take her head off in the foyer. "How could you? How could you bring her back here… right now after we tried so hard to hide her after the Amazo."

Sara glared at him. "I just got back, I needed to see her OK. Great thing about the League of Assassins they teach you how to hide anything… even our daughter."

Slade hit the screen seeing the static start again. He knows Ms. Smoak hasn't found them. It doesn't matter he knows now. Oliver killed Shado for his bastard daughter. The Parents will suffer endlessly for this. They will know the worst pain.

Isabel walked for the safe. She has to say in a way she's relieved. Slade's original plan was to burn the city. This one much more intimate and personal. Slade's mind is starting to worry her though. Either way once the Queen family is dead and Oliver knows true suffering the two of them can go home to their own infant son Grant.

Vordigan walked behind the female warrior. He tried to explain the difference to Slade but that man's mind is far gone. It's more then obvious this World's Oliver Queen is playing him. But as long as he can keep the arrows and more importantly Artemis busy it's no concern to him. Every time he's tried to fight Oliver's wife she effortlessly handed his ass to him. She has to be sniped like earlier. Very few things scare him in this life but that woman is certainly one of them. Although he broke the rules he respected his prodigy. He certainly looked for the strongest when it came to a spouse.

Ollie ran up the wall and landed with a thud tackling Vordigan to the ground. Isabel quickly turned around taking out her blades and swung at a member of the League of Assassins crossing swords.

Isabel looked at him. "You think you can stop us."

"You forget your place Ms. Roschev!" Malcolm replied.

Isabel's eyes rose up in fear this wasn't one of Sara's friends. "Merlyn's enforcer!"

Malcolm quickly kicked her in the gut and hit her with an uppercut.

Oliver kept swinging with his bow and while he kept swinging nothing good really came out of it. Slade's Mirakuru just made it meaningless. He watched Sara run up and jump on Slade's back with her staff at his throat trying to get a death grip but it wasn't working with the helmet. Sara quickly reached the sonic device and held it right to Slade's ears as the merc fell back and Sara jumped off. She quickly notched an arrow to Oliver's bow and fired with an explosive arrow knocking Slade down.

Slade got back to his feet. "And what was that supposed to accomplish? The only reason you two aren't dead is because I want you to live with the pain of your child dying."

Sara smiled. "It did its job. You're so blinded by rage you can't even see the real threat."

Slade quickly pulled out his gun and fired twice shooting Sara in the chest. "It wasn't about her anyway. Poor Sara." Slade shouted in pain and fell to one knee feeling a weakness swell up over him. He looked to see an empty injection arrow in his exposed right arm. Sara's explosive made a hole in the armor. He looked behind him and saw a smiling Roy Harper under his red mask until he turned around and focused on the Mirakuru army with Buffy and Diggle.

Slade took off his helmet just to look into Oliver's own eyes as he died. He snarled out in anger at the man that took so much from him. "The Mirakuru wasn't the only reason that I hated you!"

Slade and Oliver look at each other nothing but hatred and disgust for what the other has done and become.

Diggle shot the last one after him in the arm it was quickly followed by an injection arrow by Buffy putting down the last Mirakuru soldier. Diggle looked at what in his eyes was a sister soldier. She was disturbingly calm about everything that happened to the point of even cracking a couple jokes at the super soldier army… in the middle of the fight. "How many times have you been in this kind of thing?"

Buffy gave an innocent shrug. She'll never be a poster child for normal. "I stopped counting when I was seventeen."

In the escape tunnel Ollie fought with everything he had against his former mentor. It's rare for him to go all out for two reasons. One he doesn't want to be as broody and isolated as Bruce. Two he was taught to kill you never want to tap into that easily. However Vordigan is a monster he has to go all out just to stand a chance.

Oliver attacked Slade, now on even footing. He used his bow to block Slade's sword attack, forcing him backward and kicking him to the floor finally having a chance to finish this. Slade scrambled in a hurry back to his feet as Oliver stepped forward and Slade attacked again swinging his sword. Oliver ducked and dodged each blow as he was forced back. A kick to the gut by Slade sent him crashing to his knees, and he lifted his bow to block the descending sword in desperation pushing it away.

Isabel smiled seeing she's lasted this long against the enforcer. Though she suspects that it's mostly the Mirakuru's doing for how long she's lasting. She lunges forward with her sword and though she misses Merlyn she does cut the line to the archer's quiver knocking it off.

Malcolm saw it but didn't let it bother him it will make her all the more arrogant. He swung high with his sword and Isabel quickly put her free hand up gripping the archer's arm. Malcolm groaned in pain and tried keep hold but he had no choice but to drop his sword or lose the arm.

Isabel looked at him with a smug smile pushing him off. For years she's had to deal this guy it ends in 5 seconds. "You're all out of weapons."

She lunged forward with her blade in an act of supreme arrogance and Malcolm easily side stepped the attack and grabbed the second blade off her back and pushed it through the young woman's back.

Malcolm shook his head much like everything else from Mr. Wilson's entourage tonight... sloppy. He doesn't know what buttons Oliver pushed but it was a job well done. "You're not. Goodbye Ms. Roshchev." He pushed the blade further in as it came out through her chest ending the young CEO's life.

Vordigan used his bow as a melee weapon easily knocking aside the two arrows Ollie shot at him. "Your family is a liability to you Oliver. Other wards you would have used arrows more powerful and put me down by now."

Ollie quickly threw up his bow but was kicked down to one knee. "You do realize if I was still a member I would have to kill you by now right?"

Vordigan swung his bow attempting to hit the Green Arrow but Ollie just ducked the attack as he got to his feet and threw a punch but Vordigan stepped behind him and quickly put him in a rear naked choke. "Moments like this are why we trust only ourselves. Your family has made you weak Oliver. You can't even grab any of your weapons."

Ollie struggled trying to break free. He looked to Merlyn who just seemed content to watch as the Oliver from another world rolled his eyes in disbelief.

Vordigan tightened his grip as Ollie dropped to one knee. "There was never any doubt of the outcome. Don't worry Oliver I can't guarantee Buffy but your daughter will be given a quick clean death."

Ollie let out a growl. "My family didn't make me weak just showed me some new things." He flicked his wrist and a wooden stake came out like a claw that he jammed into his former mentor's foot."

Vordigan howled in agonizing pain releasing his student. Ollie quickly shot to his feet and punched Vordigan to the floor as Ollie grabbed his bow and notched up a regular arrow with no attachment.

"It's over Vordigan!"

Vordigan nodded from his spot on the ground. "You forget one thing Oliver. I get past you. I kill Elizabeth I win. You shoot me down I…" Vortigan's eyes widened in mute pain. He looked down at his chest and saw the arrow sticking out of it. He let out a quiet smile as he simply fell to the floor."

Malcolm looked at him surprised. "You actually did it. Didn't think you had it in you."

Ollie shook his head. "I do have it in me. I just don't like using it because I don't like the person it turns me into... which is why even today... I didn't."

"The arrow…" Malcolm tried to reason.

Ollie shook his head. "Very close but no heart. He's gonna be pissed when he wakes up and realized all I did was shoot him with an arrow dipped in a beta blocker."

Malcolm rolled his eyes in disbelief. Thea is safe and there's no way he's getting near her with all the archers here now. He waited five years for the Undertaking he can wait until Thea is ready to go to him.

"It's over Oliver!" Slade yelled. The merc blocked a punch and grabbed Oliver by the throat with one hand. He started choking Oliver, looking up as he saw the life leaving him. "The end is near. I wanted you to know true despair, knowing you won't be able to save her will be punishment enough."

Oliver broke free of Slade's grip and continued the assault. The arrow blocked his sword but took a kick to the kidneys. Oliver spun around, blocking another sword strike, and kicked Slade hard in the gut, sending his former friend tumbling back. Oliver and Slade both laid on the roof, tired and in pain,

"We both know there's only one way that this can end." Slade said with a groan. "To beat me, kid, you're going to have to kill me."

Both men hobbled back to their feet. "But in the moment of my death, you'll prove one thing- that you are a murderer." Slade said amused at the thought. Both men charged on for one last round.

Oliver kicked Slade to the ground and then followed him down but Slade countered with a kick to Oliver's leg. Slade staggered to his feet, his sword at the ready as Oliver moved in. Oliver took a wild swing with his bow, that Slade dodged. Slade hit Oliver with a wild cross, then another, staggering Oliver backwards. Slade lunged at Oliver, his sword aimed at his head, but Oliver blocked the sword, swinging away, and then drawing and firing a pair of rope arrows, tying Slade to the ground.

Oliver staggered, tired and bloody approaching his old friend.

"You can kill me, or not." Slade said exhausted from the fight. "Either way, I win."

One crack to the head with a baton knocked Slade out. Sara smiled the Mirakuru is truly gone. "He was done. League armor. Better then Kevlar"

Buffy watched as Oliver locked the door in his club. "Are you sure he's going to stay locked up in there?"

Oliver nodded. "Pretty sure John, Lyla, and the Argus army won't take their eyes off him. It's in Amanda Waller's best interest to keep Slade locked up in Lian Yu."

Buffy looked at him. "You OK?"

Oliver shook his head. "No, when Roy was cured he went back to normal. I was hoping the same would be true for Slade."

Buffy nodded in solemn understanding thanks to dealing with vampires. Ollie was hoping Slade would go back someone she's guessing was a friend. "Slade didn't need the mirakuru to be a bad guy it probably helped speed it up though. Come to my world sometime and I'll introduce you to Rose. She'll have stories to tell ya. Now I'm off to gather up my family and one pain in the ass archer so we can go home."

Oliver looked at her and offered. "There's plenty of room for one more on Lian Yu."

Buffy smiled and put her hand up. "Thank you, but when... not if Vordigan breaks out again he'll just keep dropping body after body. Nothing Argus has can hold him believe me we tried we need one of Batman's prisons for that one."

Oliver looked at her cross eyed. She can't be serious. "Batman huh?"

Buffy nodded. "Most people are impressed or intimidated by him so don't laugh. Thank you for everything you've done for us."

Oliver looked at her. "It was just babysitting while you saved my city from Slade and the Mirakuru. How do you and him make it work?"

Buffy smiled and replied. "Well, for starters she already has to know you're the Green Arrow."

"Just the Arrow." Oliver filled in.

Buffy looked at him. "Well that's lame, that's like calling me the stake." Buffy thought it over and just through of the last thing and how badly it would have gone if this world's team arrow wasn't there. "And for the record what you did for Liz there was nothing greater then that to me. Keeping her safe till we got here."

"Any other tips about private lives?" Oliver asked.

Buffy nodded. "Remember that you're both going to screw up and you are going to lie to each other at some point in the belief that you are protecting someone. Try to avoid that if you can but the League has taken to calling that Superman sickness. So you might slip into it. Just remember the girl worked for Ras Al Ghul she can handle most things and keep things secret if need be."

Oliver looked at her slack jawed. "How did you know that?"

Buffy smiled. "There are no demons here that you know of so the only person Sara would have," Buffy did a Dr. Evil motion with her fingers 'sold her soul to' "would be Ras Al Ghul."

Laurel shook her head in disbelief. They were all almost killed by super soldiers last night. How can this not bother her? Also more disturbing to her is ever since she told the little girl her full name she's had one request. "Why do you want to hear me scream?"

"It's fun watching the glass break." Liz replied.

"I do not scream that loudly!" Laurel protested as Thea laughed and even Moira snickered.

Ollie was fighting a losing battle to keep the smirk off his face.

Lance looked at the alternate version of Oliver one was bad enough but now there's two of them if the other green arrow was any indication. Sunglasses are not as good as a mask, "Something we ought to know?"

Ollie looked at his daughter and Laurel. "It's your first name. Liz know a Dinah that is like an honorary aunt and is always following her around. The weird thing was trying to find little girl fishnets on Halloween."

Sara went to speak but was cut off the death glare of her big sister who just pointed and warned. "Don't you dare?"

Sara smiled at the bit of torment but motioned a zipper across her lips.

Buffy walked in with Oliver and saw the happy faces especially on her husband. "What's everyone so happy about?"

"Fishnets" Ollie replied as the group let out a laugh except for Laurel who let out a low growl sound.

Buffy looked at him. "Fishnets huh?" They've been to that world where Oliver was Mayor and married to Dinah.

Ollie shook his head. "You can't bring me down today Summers I'm in too good a mood."

Buffy smiled in most couples this would be the trace of a fight but to them it's more of a challenge. She looked to Sara and got her ammo as she pointed to Sara. "Oh yeah that's a good indication of how your daughter looks in twenty years."

Ollie looked at Sara and… yeah she looks like a you… slightly, slightly, younger version of Buffy. Well, that will do it, even worse remembering what he did with girls that age… well that definitely did it. "Oh god no!" He turned to Lance. "I need advice now! Most people I know aren't close with their fathers or lost them!"

Buffy shrugged it's just about the only thing Batman and Superman have in common. Not to mention Dawn summoned a title wave last time she saw their father.

Lance looked at him. "If she's anything like Sara growing up. Just accept her be there for her, spend all the time you can with her because you never know when boats go bad and most important of all don't try to turn her into a mini you she'll fight you every step of the way."

Ollie nodded. "That's good advice."

Lance shrugged experience of life. "Ah who are you again?"

"Friend of the family" Ollie quickly filled in.

Lance nodded thanks to Dawn he now thinks Liz was looking for her Uncle Oliver last night. "Well I'm gonna head home it's been a weird night."

"Wait up dad." Laurel insisted. She has a feeling this is a vigilante moment. Oliver is the hood and Sara is the woman in black. They look like they need time alone.

Everyone left gathered in the living room. Malcolm had used the small victory to escape the wrath of Oliver. Thea's safe it seemed to be all that mattered to him... at least for today.

Buffy smiled now dressed as Artemis Liz in her arms as Dawn came in Vordigan completely bound in mystical chains. "So we good to go?"

"Yep, and I got a husband to lay into back home." Dawn replied.

Buffy rolled her eyes. "Just making sure you can open the portal Magigirl."

Thea looked at Dawn confused. "Magigirl?"

"Code name" Dawn replied. "Everyone in the league has one."

Thea shrugged. "I've heard worse."

Oliver walked in with Ollie. "So… do all your heroes and villains have cute little codenames?"

Ollie nodded. "Yeah we can discuss it over drinks with Deathstroke, the Huntress, and black driver." Oliver looked at him startled. "Felicity's nice."

Ollie walked over to Moira and hugged her. "It was incredible to see you again mom."

Moira smiled knowing how tense things were with her and Oliver lately and thankful they came to an end. As for this Oliver. "She would be so proud of you and your family. You're an incredible man she would be so proud."

"Thanks mom." Ollie replied as they broke apart. If he hugs her any longer he won't be able to leave.

Ollie looked at Thea. "You look familiar I just can't place it."

Buffy rolled her eyes not that she's surprised. Same eyes same brown hair, how can he not recognize Mia? It's her with a much bigger bank book. "Ollie we should really head home before Clark punches through a hole through reality looking for Dawn."

Thea's eyes widened to an almost cartoonish proportion. "Can he really do that?"

"I stopped asking that question a long time ago. I just accept it." Buffy answered honestly.

Liz looked up at the two women. She wishes she had them in her world. "Bye Grandma, bye Aunt Thea I'll miss you."

Moira and Thea hugged the little girl. Thea groaned if everything didn't happen like it did she'd punch holes in Dawn's supplies but there's been enough drama for now. "We'll miss you too."

Dawn's eyes turned to green orbs as portal opened and seeming swallowed the five as it just closed leaving an empty spot where the group once was.

Oliver frowned seeing the empty space. He knew they had to go but he will miss them. He looked up and to his surprise saw Sara was gone. "Damn it!"

Oliver ran out of the force full force she didn't steal anything that could get her out of Starling even faster. He was surprised to find her sitting at Robert Queen's grave. "Figured you'd be gone already."

"You want me to leave?" Sara asked.

Oliver shook his head. "No."

Sara turned back to the gravestone. "Looking back it's hard to believe he's the reason all this started."

Oliver nodded in agreement. "I had a promise to keep."

Sara shook her head. "I just rolled with the punches. I got so used to the league I almost went back. So what does that make me?"

"Lost" Oliver answered bluntly. "Not necessarily a bad thing."

Sara shook her head. "You spent five years on that island waiting for a chance to get home you had a conviction I never did."

Oliver shook his head. "I spent two years there." Sara turned to him surprised. Getting Oliver to open about his past is like pulling teeth, "After the Amazo… I woke up in Hong Kong. I found someone whom was actually similar to Ra's Al Ghul in some ways and she taught me torture, conviction, how to be a monster for a good cause. She even tried to get me to kill Tommy to make sure I'd remain her weapon. I got free from her at the end of the year, but not before something horrible happen that cost a lot of lives. I found the person responsible got him alone, and I tortured him, not for information or to stop him but just because I could. By the time the year was over I had a chance to come home but I didn't take it. I thought of myself as too damaged to just be Oliver Queen. "

Sara took him by the hand. "With how you were with Roy and even Slade… I never would have guessed."

Oliver shook his head. "I'm not perfect but I'm trying to be better then what I was for my father, Yao Fei, Shado, Akio, and everyone else along the way. You understood me more then anyone what I went through those five years."

Sara looked at him. "I would have killed Roy."

"I stopped you." Oliver replied. "We anchor each other. Yes you could have killed Roy but I stopped you. We're stronger together. I pulled you back from crossing the line with Roy just as you wouldn't let me go after Slade alone. You wouldn't let me push you away so I'm not going to let you push me away. We're stronger together and whatever this is... I don't want it to be over yet." Oliver looked at the Canary and asked. "So what are you going to do?"

Sara smiled in disbelief she never saw her mind change so much in the course of a day. "Buffy, told me some things about herself and one of the others like her in her world. I think I'm going to stay with you and my family for the time being. I don't think I'm that far gone yet."

Oliver smiled as the two walked back for the house his arm wrapped around her.

An hour later Dig walked in with Felicity. Oliver looked at him with concern on his mind. "Slade?"

Dig smiled a bit. And not even a generic smile this was a bliss smile that might need to be surgically removed. "Locked away on a one way flight heading for Lian Yu.

Sara looked at him. "That seems to be just too happy for to only be about Slade, what's up?"

Diggle looked away for a moment but answered. "Lyla's pregnant."

Sara hugged him and Oliver was next for his brother.

"Congratulations Dig." Oliver replied before turning to his mother. "Do we have something we can celebrate with?"

Moira smiled after the insanity of the last couple days it will be good to have a normal gathering and they definitely have something for the occasion.

Oliver turned to Diggle. "Of course you realize with this new news I kind of have to fire you when the baby is born."

"Nah man, just means I have to cut back." Dig replied.

Thea smiled at the news until a green swirl of energy opened above her head as Roy pulled her back after much apologizing they got back together after the fight. Thea looked to the others and warned. "Um guys, I think the other world might be in trouble."

Team Arrow watched in concern until two little things fell out of the portal and just as soon as it opened the portal closed.

Sara looked in concern as Felicity picked the objects off the floor as the Canary asked. "What now!"

Felicity shook her head. "It's OK it's just a book and a DVD we can watch on TV."

"How do you know that?" Roy asked.

Felicity held up a yellow post it. "Because it had watch me for a laugh written on it."

Oliver took the book off her and read an inscription on the first page. (You just have to find them) Oliver looked at the rest but the pages were blank.

Moira came in with a bottle and saw her oldest at the fireplace as she put the bottle and glasses down. She watched as the fire brought the pages to life and sees a new strand of four names appear. Clark Kent, Bruce Wayne, Diana Prince, Hal Jordan. "I don't remember those names being on the list."

Oliver shook his head. "It's a new list. Speaking of Malcolm's list do you still have a copy?"

"Yeah why?" Moira asked.

Oliver shook his head. "There's something I need to see. I think I screwed up bad this year."

Moira grabbed a fireplace poker and to the surprise of everyone unloaded on the middle top of the fireplace until a copy of the list was revealed. "Thought I might be able to use it against Malcolm one day."

While Oliver and Moira focused on the lists Thea popped in the DVD and waited as the TV came to life.

Diggle and Sara share a collective groan seeing the purple and black costume of the Huntress, the other Oliver, and a doctor from the looks of it. Diggle seethed a bit. "Oh joy, Ollie's psycho ex girlfriend."

Huntress let out a weak sigh. "Look I'm flattered Dr. Bowen…"

"Carter"

Huntress nodded. "Carter, honestly… you're just not my type."

Thea rolled her eyes. "Oh god you mean to tell me there's other Carter Bowens out there. I figured ours had such a fat head because he had the ego of all the Carters put together. I figured it was the only way to make such a smug jackass."

The Carter in the tape kept going not letting up. "Well you haven't really dated anyone outside of Batman if you listen to League rumors."

Huntress glared at him. "Do not bring up the boy wonder to me!"

"I thought that was Robin." Carter asked.

"No, Robin was more mature then Batman." Huntress replied. "We're done here."

Carter looked at her. "Well what about that kid you bring up on occasion she needs a mature father figure since she doesn't seem to have one as it looks like she's a one night stand baby. Not to mention in all your wisdom the closest thing you picked out for a father will also probably eat her one day."

Diggle and Roy watched as Helena went for the crossbow. That didn't take long.

Thea on the other hand was all smiles. "Do it, do it, please do it!"

"Thea!" Roy said surprised seeing her channel her father.

Thea looked at her boyfriend. "What? We all know they wouldn't send us a snuff flick. He gets an arrow in the arm for running his mouth."

Sara looked at her before she smiled at Diggle. "A little secret about Carter Bowen Dig. The man is a colossal ass. He probably bragged about how good his life was for fifteen to thirty minutes from the look in Huntress' eyes. I'm rooting for a knee cap."

Huntress pulled out her cross bow. "Don't you dare bring Helena into this!" She aimed but Green Arrow was quicker on the draw and shot an arrow into the man's leg as Carter fell over holding his leg."

Thea shot up her arms in a victory celebration. "There is a God! He's real! He exists! Thank you!"

Diggle looked at the tapes surprised he thought she was Helena. It's apparently her mother.

Huntress looked at Carter shriek in pain like a little girl. "I was only going to wound him!" Green Arrow just looked at her. "Guy can survive with one eye ask X."

Green Arrow kept his stare. "You have priors."

Huntress looked at him but looked away. "Yeah, fair enough. So is B gonna be pissed at you?"

Green Arrow shook his head and started walking away Huntress right behind him. "Nah I'll just give him a fat check that he can donate in his name to green peace. He'll say he suffered it in the name of innocent children and be one step closer to that Nobel prize." Green Arrow whispered to Faith. "You ready to pick up Helena Faith?"

Faith nodded. "Yeah I miss my little firecracker." She looked to Carter still openly crying.

"I think I'm bleeding out." Carter said holding his leg.

Faith turned to Oliver and seeing his face it all clicked as she whispered. "You two know each other."

Oliver nodded. "I've known Carter Bowen since I was four years old. The man is a jackass."

Thea pointed at the screen. "See Dig, even the happier less violent Oliver agrees with me."

Oliver walked over with Moira. "What was on the tape?"

"My newest Christmas tradition." Thea replied to her brother's confusion.

Felicity looked at the younger Queen. "You are way too happy about that." She turned back to Oliver. "What's with the two books?"

Oliver held up Moira's book. "We all know what this is right. When I came back last year I turned my back on this list."

Felicity looked at him. "You said you wanted to be more then a killer after everything that happened with Tommy."

"I do." Oliver assured her. "And I have no intention to just stop fighting the street crime. However" Oliver opened the list to the page with Adam Hunt on it. "Anyone see a familiar name?"

Diggle, Roy, Sara, and even Felicity groan in disappointment seeing Isabel's name. The list might have been a representation of more brutal times but just because they abandoned it doesn't make the names on it any less dangerous. Oliver saw he had everyone's rapt attention and continued. "The street crime is just what comes out of the machine that is Starling City's criminal empire. The names on the list are the cogs. We take out the cogs and we can slow the machine down even bring it to a grinding halt if just for a little while. We can save this city and not kill them at the same time."

Felicity looked at him. "Not that I wouldn't support this but going after both waves of crime is stretching yourself out pretty thin Oliver."

Oliver shook his head and turned to Sara and Roy. "I'm not alone." He grabbed the new book and put it on the table. "And soon I really won't be. Go to the second page."

Diggle flipped to the second page as everyone looked over his shoulder to see. (Barry Allen, Carter Hall, Ray Palmer, Dinah L. Lance) With the names of the two Oliver knows crossed out. "What is this?"

"In Buffy's world there is an entire league of people like us. I think she gave us this so we could find them. Help them along the way of who they're going to become so we don't have to face the world alone."

Roy looked at him. "Build an army of heroes, have help for all this madness, I can get behind that. Besides if it's just Oliver meeting these people he'll scare most of them away so he should probably have company for these meetings."

Moira smiled in pride. "You'll have off the books help me and Quentin will disband the vigilante task force. Perk of being the mayor."

Oliver looked at her uneasy, "Mom, Quentin doesn't know who I am he might not go for it."

Sara looked at him arms crossed. "My dad might be a drunk but do you honestly believe he hasn't put it together yet, especially when we got back together?"

Oliver shrugged seeing her point as she leaned into him. Team Arrow working to build a better world to finally save this city. He knows crime will spread again you can beat evil but you can't truly kill it. But for the first time in a long time he has hope for his city and for tomorrow.

The End
