Hey guys! I am so so sorry about the wait. I've had a lot going on the past couple weeks. But here's a new chapter! This one is actually a crossover chapter with a story my friend is writing. Her story is called The Dagger and is also on this account. It's a The Flash fanfic, read it if you're interested. But it's not necessary to read it to read my story. Anyway, enjoy!

The next day, Alex was practicing some sword fighting techniques alone. She and Roy hadn't really spoken since the kiss, and she was focusing hard to keep her mind off of him. Suddenly, she heard someone clear their throat behind her.

She spun around, swords raised. "Oh, hey, Oliver," she said, relaxing when she saw him. Then she noticed a red haired girl with him. "Who's this?"

"This is Sam." The girl replied with a grin "Or Samantha. You must be Alex, Ol has told me like, one thing about you."

Alex laughed. "He's told me like nothing about you."

"Probably because I left Starling city and told him that I was starting over in Central City and to try not to have anything to do with me." Sam replied casually.

"Oh, well that explains it," Alex replied, trying to sound as casual as Sam.

"Oliver, talk about me more. Seriously." Sam scolded.

"If you insist," Oliver said. "Sam used to work with me. She went by the name The Dagger."

"The Dagger?" Alex turned to her. "I've heard of you. You're operating in Central now, right? You disappeared after," she hesitated, as she always did before speaking of this event, "after the Undertaking."

"Yeah, I work in Central now. It was fun hearing all the different rumors and theories about how I died."

Alex laughed. "Yeah, there were a lot of those."

"I once heard someone say they found her body." Sam replied "Lets just say she didn't make it out of the building."

Alex couldn't quite tell if she was joking or not.

"Sam," Oliver whispered in a demanding tone "What have I told you about making jokes like that to people you just met?"

"Um...nothing?" Samantha replied innocently.

Alex smiled. "So it was a joke."

"Yeah, pretty much the only thing she's one hundred percent serious about is coffee." Oliver said.

"I've been living off coffee since I was ten." Alex laughed, glad to find a mutual interest, however small.

Sam looked around awkwardly "Eight."

Alex laughed again. "I think we'll get along," she said.

"As long as you like coffee, I'm good." I replied "If you don't I'll have to set you on fire." She laughed, but stopped neither Oliver nor I reacted. "Nevermind."

"What have I told you about threatening people you've just met with fire?" Oliver asked.

"Ok, that doesn't count right now. I'll have to show you." She sighed. "You trust this person right?" She motioned to Alex.

"Yes," Oliver said. "Completely."

Alex couldn't help but feel proud. She knew that Oliver's trust was hard-won.

"Can I have something made of paper?" Sam asked. Oliver handed her a blank piece of paper. She laid it on the metal table and put her right hand flat over it. It burst into flames. Before it could completely burn, she reached her hand out again and covered it with ice. "See. Fire."

"Whoa!" Alex jumped back. "What are you? I heard there was some crazy stuff going on in Central but- and how do you not burn and freeze too? How does your body deal with those temperatures? Just, how?" She was instantly enthralled with Sam's capabilities.

"I'm human, I have fast healing, and the Particle Accelerator affected me and made me what my team call a 'Meta Human' Which is basically-Basically every Meta is like an X-Men character; We have powers." She replied, speaking rather quickly.

"That's fascinating," Alex said, staring at Sam's hand.

She laughed "You sound like Caitlin."

"Caitlin? Who's that?" Alex asked.

"Crap. Well, she's part of my team, and would so not approve of me telling you guys."

"Has she been like studying you or anything? I'd love to see any findings that she has."

"She's had more done with Ba-The Streak, she hasn't really had time to do tests on me yet."

"She should. But The Streak is fascinating, too."

"And when were you going to tell me?" Oliver asked.

"I kinda assumed you'd see it on the news."

"You wanted me to hear about this on the news?"

"I didn't say that. I just-How do you tell someone you set stuff on fire and freeze stuff with your hands?"

"You kind of just did tell him," Alex pointed out, wanting to avoid any argument that this could cause.

"Right. Well until now I haven't seen him in person since the particle accelerator went off. It's harder over the phone." Sam defended. She sighed and looked at her watch. "Well, I've missed my train. Though, I think The Streak owes me a favor, so I'm good."

"Alright." Oliver replied "Goodbye Sam."

"Nice meeting you," Alex said. She wished she could have talked to her a bit more, but Central wasn't that far away.

"Totally. Bye." She said, then left the bunker.

"I should get going, too," Alex told Oliver. "I have to get ready for work.

"Okay," he replied. "Bye."

"See ya." Alex left, her mind full of questions about The Streak and The Dagger. She decided she'd have to find a way to make Sam let her meet the rest of her team. She had to ask that Caitlin person that Sam mentioned about the strange powers caused by the particle accelerator.

Thanks to novaselena and toribaskett15 for following and favoriting. And thanks to Quiet Like the Snow, Highlander348, WinterRain36, and Guest 21 for reviewing.

Quiet Like the Snow reviewed twice. The first time they said:

I waited for a legendary bowl and water practice XD

Haha! I should've thought to include that.

Then they said:

Interesting story. Oliver and Thea sword fight was interesting. However, I think Oliver's currently believed to be more skilful as he has been in the league.

Actually, in this story and point in time, Oliver hasn't been in the league. The universe is a bit AU. Thanks for the reviews!

They kissed! That was so romantic! As for Alex deflecting bullets that was great! Though if those bullets had hit Felicity's babies namely her computers she would have screamed bloody murder and try to attack Alex! (laughing)

Here is a awesome idea I hope you like and consider! This was a scene Deadpool did in a movie spinoff with Wolverine based on his origins. Please check it out if you can to see what I mean!

Say Alex gets the chance to put her sword bullet deflecting skills to the test in her first outing as a vigilante! Like she comes across a drug deal and all of a sudden 8 or so criminals pull out guns including automatic rifles! Then they start firing at her! She could spin her swords in a rapid twirl and start deflecting the bullets back at her shooters causing the bullets to knock the guns out of their hands and also aiming for non vital areas of their bodies like arms and legs! Update soon! :)

Felicity probably would freak out! Good thing Alex has good aim.

Great idea for a fight scene! I'll definitely use something like that in the future. Thanks!
