Final Chapter

"You sure you want to do this Oliver. You're basically saying goodbye to your free will." John said to Oliver as helped him prepare for the most important and dangerous mission of Oliver's life.

"Hey, if you can do it, so can I and Roy's one step ahead of me." Oliver reminded him.

"Just making sure you don't want to back out now." John said.

"Please John, I think we both know that I'm too scared of what Laurel will do to me if I tried that. Besides, I love her too much to do that to her." Oliver said.

"Then it sounds like I got back just in time." Tommy said as he entered the room.

"Tommy. I'm glad you could make it buddy." Oliver said as he hugged his best friend.

"I'm insulted that you thought that I'd miss my both of my best friends' wedding day. Even if it did cost me ten bucks." Tommy said.

"What?" Oliver asked.

"Back when you and Laurel were together the first together and Laurel seemed like your most serious relationship, Thea and I placed a bet on whether or not you guys would ever get married and she won." Tommy said and Oliver chuckled.

"I shouldn't be surprised." Oliver said.

"Still a little insulted you didn't ask me to be your best man." Tommy said.

"Well to be fair, you're dead, so having you as the mayor's best man, may not be such a good idea." Oliver pointed out.


Laurel was currently standing in front of a full body mirror in a room on the other side of the chapel, looking at herself in her wedding dress.

"You look just like you did in the dominator's dream." a voice said and Laurel turned to see her little sister standing in the doorway.

"Sara, you made it." Laurel said, hugging her little sister.

"I'm insulted that you think I'd miss my big sister's wedding day?" Sara asked.

"Let me guess, you did forget and then used your access to a time traveling spaceship to go back in time and attend my wedding?" Laurel asked, knowing her sister all too well, especially when Sara just smiled guiltily at her.

"Sorry." Sara said.

"Hey, just consider yourself lucky that this time around, you actually made it." Laurel said as Thea entered the room.

"Hey Thea, wow, you really lost the baby weight fast." Sara said, since Thea was now once again as thin as she was before she was pregnant.

"Fast, it took me 6 months." Thea said.

"Well, to me it was fast." Sara said.

"I hate you." Thea said before turning to Laurel.

"Is the maid of honor ready to do her duty?" Laurel asked Thea, who nodded eagerly.

"Why'd you name her your maid of honor and not me?" Sara asked.

"Because Thea made it to the wedding without having to go back in time." Laurel said pointedly.

"Point made." Sara conceded as their father entered the room.

"Everyone's ready if you are Laurel." Quentin said to his daughter.

"I've always been ready for this." Laurel said.

"Guess there's no chance in me talking you out of this then." Quentin said and Laurel smiled at her father.

"Not a chance in hell." Laurel said.


Oliver was currently standing at the altar next to the minister while waiting for Laurel to come down the aisle and was looking out everyone in the crowd.

On his side of the aisle sat Walter, who was holding Moira, since Thea still saw Walter as her stepfather and as such, Moira's grandfather, a role which he happily accepted, Tommy, Rene, Curtis and his husband Paul, Evelyn, Lyla and JJ, Samantha and William, Felicity and Hal, Barry, Iris, Cisco, Caitlin, Joe, H.R., Ray, Jax, Professor Stein, Nate, Amaya, Tatsu and several other members of the city council.

On Laurel's side was her mother, Donna, who was cautious to sit at the other end of the bench as her boyfriend's ex-wife, Nyssa, Mari, Laurel's friends and former coworkers from CNRI and the District Attorney's office.

Now standing at Oliver's left was John, who was serving as his best man, and Roy who was his groomsmen, while to his far right were Thea, who was the maid of honor and Sara who was a bridesmaid.

Finally, as the music started, Laurel came walking down the aisle with one arm in her father's.

When they reached the steps to the altar, Oliver walked down to meet them and he took Laurel's arm from Quentin.

"You hurt her again and I'll make sure you really do die on that island." Quentin muttered to Oliver chuckled as Quentin let go of Laurel's arm and took his seat next to Donna as Oliver and Laurel walked up to the minister, who began the ceremony.

"Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today because you have been asked to pay witness as Oliver Jonas Queen and Dinah Laurel Lance become joined in holy matrimony. Now, before I continue, I must ask, is there anyone here who sees a reason as to why these two should not be wed? If so, speak now or forever hold your peace." the minister said.

After no one spoke up, the basic vows were exchanged between Oliver and Laurel, since they had already wasted 10 years and they did not intend on wasting anymore time.

"And now, do you Oliver, take Dinah Laurel Lance to be your lawfully wedded wife, to have and to hold, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, for as long as you both shall live?" the minister asked.

"I do." Oliver said as John handed him a ring, which Oliver then placed on Laurel's right ring finger.

"And do you, Dinah, take Oliver Jonas Queen to be your lawfully wedded husband, to have and to hold, in good times and bad, in sickness and in health, for as long as you both shall live?" the minister then asked Laurel.

"I do." Laurel said as Thea then handed her a ring, which Laurel then placed on Oliver's right ring finger.

"Then, by the power vested in me, I hereby pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride." the minister said and Oliver smiled as he and Laurel shared their first kiss as husband and wife.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you all, Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Queen." the minister said.


Epilogue:

Over the next 30 years, things went on as usual it could be in Star City. After his first term as mayor came to an end, Oliver was re elected mayor of Star City and the people thought that he'd done such a good job as mayor, since it was under his watch that crime in Star City was down and it appeared the city was finally starting to recover from all the horrible things that had occurred to it over the years, that the people tried to amend the constitution so he could stay on longer, though Oliver denied that and instead had decided to return to the wonderful world of business and he established a new company, Queen Incorporated. Queen Inc. quickly grew in size and backers as Oliver picked up with Queen Inc where he left off with Queen Consolidated. Laurel continued to serve as the DA for Star City, since Oliver's successor had agreed that she was the best choice for the job. Oliver and Laurel both also continued to perform their duties as the Green Arrow and the Black Canary.

About 5 years after they got married, Oliver and Laurel had a son, Robert Slade Queen, who was now 25 and had just finished college and now he had decided to join the family business and Oliver was now grooming him to take over company, along with training him to take on the mantle of Green Arrow someday.
