Chapter 2
Four people sat in a car. While Asami and Oliver sat in the back, their bodyguards sat in the front, with Diggle driving the car. As the car was driving, the siblings looked at the back seats and saw that their charges were gone.
"Dammit," spoke Korra, "Why would they run off like that? I scared Miss Prissy, haven't I?" asked Korra as her older brother looked in disappointment.
Oliver and Asami approached the abandoned Queen factory. They saw a tall fence, but it did not stop them. The two had new gear, and as they approached the fence, they first threw their bags over the fence, and then using surrounding objects and trashcans jumped over the fence.
The factory was long abandoned, nobody was there, and nothing seemed operational. "The abduction was unexpected," spoke Oliver
"Agreed, we would need to accelerate what we had planned," replied Asami as the pair looked over the factory.
The cousins proceeded to renovate the abandoned factory. They used hammers to knock down some walls, also breaking the floor, finding a basement. Asami turned on the power to the factory. While Oliver continued to work on the walls, Asami proceeded to set up computers on the tables in the basement.
While Oliver was busy creating new arrows, Asami took of her shirt and while wearing sports bra and pants, approached the salmon ladder and began exercising.
"This feels good," spoke Asami as she successfully reached the top. She then jumped on the ground, with Oliver taking her place o also exercise on this salmon ladder.
When Oliver finished, he took out his bow and threw tennis balls up in the air. He then picked arrows, and in rapid succession shot each and every tennis ball, which was soon pinned at the opposite wall.
"Your skills are as impressive as ever," spoke Asami
"Care to practice archery?" asked Oliver
"Thanks, but I am more of a hands on person," spoke Asami. Oliver nodded. He turned on TV to see a news report about the case of Adam Hunt; Laurel was the attorney representing the plaintiff in that case.
Asami turned off the television. "Adam Hunt seems to think he cannot be touched," spoke the woman
"He hasn't met us yet," spoke Oliver as Asami nodded.
The pair looked at each other. Oliver then went to pick up his bow, and then approached his dark green costume with a hood. Asami picked up her black leather costume with a blonde wig.
Adam Hunt stood next to his car. One of his men just left him. The corrupt businessman was ready to get into his car. But as he prepared to enter, an arrow hit the lights, darkening the room.
"Adam Hunt," spoke Oliver while dressed in his costume.
"Who the hell are you?" asked the corrupt businessman.
"You have failed the city," spoke Asami, wearing black leather outfit with a white wig, and a small black mask that covered her eyes.
"You will transfer the money you have stolen to Starling city bank account 1141 by tomorrow ten pm," spoke Oliver
"And if I don't?" asked Hunt
"We will take it by force, and you wont like how we will do it," spoke Asami
"You are both dead," shouted Hunt as Asami jumped towards him and with one punch threw the man on the ground. The cousins then disappeared.
Next day, while Oliver was preparing for his party, Asami sat on her chair reading a book. She was really thinking of what the two of them would do later that evening, but she wanted others to think she was just reading.
As she was looking at her book, she noticed that some girl approached Thea and gave something to the younger Queen sibling. Asami raised an eyebrow, observing the exchange. The other girl soon left. Asami saw that Thea smiled.
The female vigilante put her book, and followed Thea Queen to her bedroom. When she entered, she saw that her younger cousin took out some pills from a small box.
"Thea!" spoke Asami
"Asami, oh, hey, what's up?" asked Thea innocently
"Thea, you need to put this down. These drugs will hurt you," spoke Asami
"Or what? You came here after five years and now trying to tell me what to do?" spoke amused Thea
"Speedy, I am worried about you," spoke Asami as she approached the younger woman
"Yeah, as if that matters. I have lost almost my entire family five years ago, and now you are trying to tell me how to behave?"
"Look," spoke Asami, "Oliver and I, we've been through hell. Uncle Robert had died shortly after the accident. Then I saw my mother die. My father has been distant. I lost a lot of my family member too. I don't want to lose you," spoke Asami as Thea put the pills in her pocket.
"Fine. I won't take them now," spoke the younger Queen as Asami smiled. Before Thea realized, Asami was gone, and so were her pills.
"Asami!" cried Thea as her cousin had left her room
Asami put on a hoodie and walked around to see whether the drug dealer was still in the vicinity. She climbed on her bike, only to find that Korra had spotted her. "What's up, prissy girl?" asked the bodyguard
"I was just looking around," replied Asami
"Alright. You look horrible, go and prepare for your party," spoke Korra
"Leave me alone, I don't need your help," spoke Asami
"Well too bad. I am your bodyguard, and you got to deal with it," spoke Korra as Asami sighed.
"Fine," spoke Asami as she walked to the bush, threw the pills, and returned to the house.
"Oh, and by the way, don't abandon me. You are a delicate person, Ms. Sato, and I wouldn't want you to get hurt. Trust me, if someone hurt you, you won't be able to handle the pain," spoke Korra as Asami mentally shook her head. This bodyguard, Korra, she was starting to get on her nerves.
Oliver and Asami soon arrived at the party that Tommy Merlyn set up for their return. Someone turned music loudly.
"Thank you very much for coming," spoke Oliver
"It means a lot to us. We haven't partied like this for a long time," smiled Asami as she took a quick drink.
As the party kept going, Oliver, Asami, and Tommy stood together, talking about life. "So, if my estimation is correct, you two haven't slept with anyone for eighteen hundred and thirty nine days. I recommend that girl," spoke Tommy as he pointed at one woman in the crowd
"Sami, would you prefer for me to set you up with some guy or a girl? Cause I remember that you and Laurel," asked Tommy
"Tommy, its fine. I am fine, I will figure out this on my own.
The two cousins then spotted a person who they did not expect to see at the party. Thea Queen. "One second Tommy," spoke Oliver and Asami as they walked towards Thea.
"O, hey Ollie," spoke Thea
"What are you doing here?" asked her brother
"Attending your party. Its sick, nice one bro," replied the girl
"You are seventeen," spoke Oliver
"So? The guard told me "Right this way, Miss Queen," so I just entered," smiled Thea
"You shouldn't be here," spoke Oliver
"Thea," spoke Asami as she was interrupted
"That's rich. You want me to not be the person who you used to be. Don't judge me for being just like you," spoke Thea
"Thea? I wasn't really that much of a party girl," spoke Asami as she looked at Oliver, telling him silently that she wanted to speak with her cousin alone.
Oliver caught that and looked at the Hunt's office, to which Asami nodded. Despite the fact that the two cousins both planned to save the city, Asami knew that at the moment she really needed to talk to Thea instead. Hunt could wait. Besides, Oliver could handle the corrupt businessman.
As Oliver left, Asami looked back at Thea.
"Thea, I know that you missed both of us, but seeing you like this breaks my heart. Please, don't do this. I know that Oliver hadn't always been a good role model, and it would be perhaps selfish to say that I was a more responsible person. Still am. Look, if you need someone to look up to and help you, let me be that person. Let me help you," spoke Asami as Thea hugged her.
"I am so sorry Sami, I just missed you and Ollie," spoke Thea
"Shh. It's alright Thea, its not too late to change. I can see that you are not doing well, so let me help you," spoke Asami as Thea smiled.
"I want to stay at the party," spoke Thea
"Fine. Just promise me that you won't drink and you won't definitely do any drugs," spoke Asami
Thea nodded. She saw that Asami prepared to walk away. "Wait, are you actually not going to look if I told you the truth?" asked the teenager.
"I trust you Thea," spoke Asami as she left the teenager, leaving her stunned.
"That was quite some speech you gave there," spoke Laurel as she approached her friend.
"I just wanted to help Thea. She is like a little sister to me," spoke Asami.
Laurel smiled. "I am sorry for what I told you before. Oliver was at fault, but it was wrong for me to also blame you," spoke the lawyer
"Thank you," spoke Asami, "I am glad that despite the whatever issues you have with Oliver, you want to be friends again," Laurel nodded.
"I am sorry that I couldn't save your sister," spoke Asami
"It's not your fault, I know she drowned when the boat sunk," spoke Laurel
"Not really. Oliver and I met her one year later. A man who we considered to be a friend betrayed us, and among other things this caused Sara's death. I want you to know that you sister always loved you, and she missed you when we all were stranded on the island," spoke Asami
Laurel wept. "Sara,"
Asami hugged her. I would tell you what really happened on the island, but not now. We all made difficult choices, but we lived in hellish conditions. I want you to know that if you ever need to talk to anyone about your problems, feel free to talk to me," the two women hugged.
Later, after Oliver returned to the party, the police have arrived, and searched the place to find the Hood guy. Lance was still very upset.
Later that evening, Asami met with Oliver. "Good job, Oliver," spoke Asami as Oliver began the transfer of the money that Hunt stole from many people of Starling City.
"Hunt was just the beginning," spoke Oliver as he took the notebook, and crossed Adam Hunt's name of the list.
"Agreed," spoke Asami
Flashback
The survivors of the sinking of the Queen's Gambit sat in the raft. "We don't have much supplies for all of us," spoke Robert Queen as he looked at the four people sitting near him.
"Brother," spoke Yasuko as Robert Queen took out his pistol and shot the surviving crewmember. Oliver and Asami immediately sat up, not believing what they just witnessed.
"Protected the kids, sis," spoke Robert as he pointed the gun at his head, "Survive,"
Robert Queen then killed himself.
"No!" cried the three remaining people in the boat.
The boat drifted for a few days. The three survivors saw an island in the distance.
Flashback ends
Moira Queen stood outside of her house as a man approached her. "The police failed to learn who abducted your son and niece. They never will. Shall I arrange for another abduction?" asked the man
"No, I have other ways to find out what they know," spoke Moira Queen as she looked in the distance.
In the main office of Future Industries, Hiroshi Sato sat by his desk. "And so it begins. It was bold for you Moira to kidnap you own son and my daughter," spoke Hiroshi as he stood up.
"Soon, I will have justice for my wife's murder. Soon, you will pay for what you did, Malcolm," spoke Hiroshi as he looked at the blue prints lying on the table, "But not yet. I know that you are a dangerous man, Malcolm, and that you can defeat almost anyone in a fight. But I will prevail. I just need to make my chances a little bit more equal,"
A/N: And so Asami and Oliver begin their crusade. In season 1 arc, Asami will be the Black Canary. She might not call herself that, but she will for all intents and purposes be one. Malcolm and Hiroshi work against each other, with Hiroshi knowing about the Undertaking, knowing that it was Malcolm's actions that resulted in the Gambit sinking. But Hiroshi will also be a villain, just a villain who is against Malcolm and his operation.
I am also thinking of Asami and Korra splitting from Oliver, Diggle, and Felicity at some point.
