Felicity tugged at her restraints again- she knew she was not tied up with rope, she couldn't be, it had to be zip-ties as they were digging into her flesh and burning her wrists. She tried not to think about that pain and work on figuring a way how to get out of there. Her mother had always told her that her mouth would get her into trouble and Felicity wondered if she could say something to make Slade change his mind on killing her. He was clearly hell bent on making Oliver's life a living hell and doing whatever it is in his power to make Oliver pay for the death of his supposed loved one. Felicity was tired of it all, she was tired of living in the mansion and not doing anything with her life. She was tired of living in fear, she was tired of Oliver living in fear. It broke her heart every time she looked at Oliver, he was struggling and under so much stress. He was trying to show a brave face, but she knew that he was physically and mentally tired from all of it. She knew that all he wanted was for this to be over with some he could relax, stress-free and not have to sleep with one eye open.

Felicity heard footsteps they were far away and were getting louder as the person approached her. Strong rough hands picked her up effortlessly from the ground and deposited her on a chair pulling the black bag off her head. Felicity blinked several times as her eyes focused to the now sudden appearance of light. She was without her glasses which did not help matters, but she was thankful that she was not completely blind without them. When Felicity's eyes focused she saw Slade standing in front of her, trying to stand tall in an authoritative manner. Felicity swallowed and waited for him to say his piece. She knew what was coming he would go on about wanting to get his revenge, she might say something to anger him which would probably earn her a good slap. She was prepared, damn she felt like a fortune teller she knew what was about to happen.

"Ms Smoak, sorry to have grabbed you like that, but I really require your presence" he smirks as he looks down at her.

"Let me guess you want me to call Oliver, cry tell him you have me, either kill me whilst on the phone to him or lure him here so you can kill me in front of him. Am I right? Very cliché don't you think?" she answered back.

Slade grinned and rested his hands on each side of the armrest and leaned forward his face inches away from hers. "Where did Queen find such a smart woman" he whispers, he scans her face and leans in closer. Felicity leans back as far as possible not wanting him anywhere near her. "You are quite lovely" he tilts his head and places his lips to her neck. Felicity flinches and tries to move away but Slade follows her movements and his lips never leave her neck.

"Get the hell away from me" she hisses.

"Yes, I do wish to kill you but I want to have some fun first" Slade stands straight and walks around her chair trying to intimidate her. Felicity wants to say something anything maybe something witty, but she has nothing to say. "Don't worry" he touches her cheek softly, "as much as I'm fun" he smirks, "I owe him a favor."

Felicity looks towards the door to see a man come in, he is wearing dark jeans with a dark shirt, and Felicity swallows as she sees the lust in his eyes. "This is Dominic" Slade gestures towards the man, "remind me again what Queen did?" Slade addresses the man named Dominic.

"He slept with my fiancée, she was going to be my wife, I hadn't even had a chance to tell anyone of our engagement and he swooped in and took her" the man spits out with venom in his voice. "He thinks just because he is Captain and he has a strong relationship with the Parkan that he can do what he pleases" Dominic shakes his head.

From his place, he pushes off the wall and begins to stride towards Felicity. Felicity closes her eyes and wills any force out there that Oliver would hurry. "There's nothing to worry about my sweet" he crouches down to her level his hands resting on her lap helping him balance. "I'll be gentle I promise" he smiles and gives Slade a knowing nod.

When Slade leaves the room Dominic's hands slowly travel along her lap hitching her skirt higher and higher. Felicity begins to shift in her seat trying to move away from his touch. "Get your hands off me," she says in a strong voice but it merely adds to his smirk. "Get off" Felicity tries to fidget in her place attempting to push him off her. Her hands are bound behind her back, she does not know what to do. She sees lust and disgust in his eyes and she does the only thing she can think off and spits in his face. Dominic does not move for a couple of seconds when he stands up slowly wiping off the spit he looks at her with anger and backhands her.

Felicity's head snaps to the side in pain and her eyes clench trying really hard not to cry out. "Get away from me," she says again hoping her voice had not cracked in front of him.

Dominic stands in front her and unzips his pants.


Oliver was in his office at home going through some paperwork for the Bratva, Diggle sat on the couch in his office with his feet up watching the game much to Oliver's annoyance.

"Can you not do that anywhere else?" Oliver asks his best friend.

"Nope," he replies as Roy walks into the room with a bowl of popcorn.

"Here" he hands it to Diggle as he takes a seat next to the older man and puts his feet up on the coffee table where Diggle's were.

"Seriously you two" Oliver huffed in frustration as he puts the paperwork away in annoyance.

"We interrupt this broadcast to bring you some breaking news" the TV interrupted the game causing both Diggle and Roy to curse and Oliver to smirk.

"We have live footage right now from Queen Consolidated…"

"Turn it up Diggle" Oliver yells standing from his chair he marches over towards the TV.

"Gun shots were fired… we have just got an update, Robert Queen has been murdered and a new employee Felicity Smoak is unaccounted for"

Roy stands when the TV mentions his sister's name, he looks at Oliver waiting for the man to tell him the next step.

"As we have learnt Felicity Smoak is engaged to our billionaire playboy…"

Diggle turns it off and looks to Oliver awaiting instructions on what to do.

"Oliver?" his mother's voice says as she enters the office running towards Oliver and embracing her son. "Oliver, they just called your father… Oh God, Robert is dead" Moira cries burying her face in his chest. Oliver finally embraces his mother wrapping his arms around her and slowly threading his fingers through her hair.


When they arrive at Queen Consolidated it is crazy with all the paparazzi everywhere. Diggle tries to cover both Oliver and Moira as he guides them inside.

"Ollie" Laurel runs to him and throws her arms around his neck, "Ollie I am so sorry, I was with dad when he got the call and I came," she tells him.

"Thank you," Oliver says, he does not know why he is thanking her but it was the only thing that he could get to come out of his mouth. Oliver spots Detective Lance, Laurel's father, "Detective."

"Queen, I am sorry for your loss, now as to your fiancée, video shows that your father put her in the cupboard to hide, Wilson" Lance says knowing all too well who the man is. Lance sees Oliver's livid expression, "Wilson killed Robert and took her," he tells him.

Oliver nods and then leaves the room to find a quiet one, clenching his eyes closed trying to control his breathing so no tears spill. Oliver's phone rings taking it out if his pocket he answers it unsure of whom it is as the number had been private.

"Yes," he says barely in whisper.

"Hi, Kid" the voice that had been haunting him for some time now answered.

"Slade" Oliver grits his teeth, "where is she" he yells.

"Busy" Slade laughs.

"I swear to God if one hair on her head goes missing…"

"You what? You will kill me? You forget that I have already taken 2 people from you, Mama Smoak and Papa Queen…"

"I'm going to kill you, you sick son of a bitch" Oliver shouts. "Where is she?"

"Oh Felicity, she is quite lovely, she's can't come to the phone right now, she has something in her mouth."

Oliver's hand grips his phone tighter at the realization at what Slade's words actually mean. "Where is she" he repeats a third time.

"Dominic is in there with her now, you remember Dominic? You slept with his fiancée…"

"I'm going to kill you"

"Empty threats kid, I want it, I want the hard drive and in return for your lovely Felicity, I will return her alive, as to how much harm I … we inflict well that's up to you, the longer you take to bring me the hard drive the …" "Well, you know what" he ends the call not giving Oliver an opportunity to talk.

Oliver throws his phone against the wall and then goes to knock things off the tables and snaps a chair in half.

"Oliver man, we'll get her back," Diggle says from out of nowhere.

"He's going to hurt her, I know it Digg I can feel it in my bones," he says with a tone of defeat.

"Oliver, hey, it's not over ok man, we're going to get her back, you have to believe that."

Oliver goes straight back home and takes out the drive, holding it in the palm of his hands he closes his eyes and apologises to his father. His father had protected the drive no matter what, his father had told him that the drive had to come first. His sister had been kidnaped once when she was younger and the kidnapper had offered a trade Thea for the drive. His father had not taken that deal; he had said they were all dead anyways if the drive was in the wrong hands. Instead, he had gathered his men and had burst in and retrieved Thea.

However, this time was different Thea had been taken by someone who thought he could do something to make himself someone within the Bratva. It was different this time Slade was skilled he knew Oliver if anything he knew him better than anyone. Oliver was kind of predictable and Slade knew this. All Oliver knew was that he could not risk Felicity's safety. He knew that Slade had already done something to hurt her, he just knew and for that he would pay. But for now, for now he had to give Slade what he wanted, he had to give him the drive if it meant getting Felicity back he would do anything to get her back.


Dominic picked for Felicity up off the seat and threw her on the ground roughly. Leaning down he took of the zips that bound her feet and hands together. Finally, free Felicity tried to fight him off her.

"Stop it" she cries. "Stop it please you're hurting me."

"Shut up bitch" Dominic slaps her, pushing her back down on the cold cement ground; he slowly cupped her breast luckily on top of her shirt. "I'll enjoy having a good look at them soon, maybe even suck on them" he whispers in her ear. He then moved his rough hands to her legs and hitched her skirt higher, "Nice fucking legs" he laughed.

Felicity knew what was coming she knew that no matter how much she fought he would still pursue what he wanted and not to mention he was much bigger than her. "Ok" she whispers, she moves her hands and cups his face leaning up to kiss him.

"Hmmm" Dominic moans, "that was very easy, you are a whore" he laughs picking her up off the floor he carries her to a mattress which Felicity had no idea was there. Felicity was underneath as he started to place kisses on her neck and making sure he left his mark. Felicity pushed him up slightly and then pushed him to lie on his back. Straddling him she places her hands on his chest and can feel his erection poking her.

Felicity leaned up and started to kiss him but made sure she didn't open her mouth to grant him more access despite how much he tried to deepen the kiss. Felicity leaned her hands over picking up the small lamp she had seen. She took it in her hands and noticed that Dominic had no clue what she was up too as he continued to kiss her as his hands travelled along her body. Felicity raised the lamp and hit him firmly on the head knocking him out cold.

Felicity sighed in relief and quickly got of him but not by spitting at him again in disgust that he had put his filthy hands on her. Felicity opened the door to the room she was locked in and slowly looked from side to side to ensure it was safe. When she found it deserted she quickly decided which way to make a run for it before she took off she noticed that the heels she was wearing today had been heels that were strapped meaning they didn't fall off her feet. She quickly removed them and then held them in each hand as a weapon. She started running down the hall. Felicity stopped when she saw a window, there were bars outside of it meaning she could not escape through it. She quickly looked out of the window trying to identify where she was. When she saw the clock she knew, she was somewhere near the clock tower. She wasn't far from home.

She proceeded to run again and when she heard footsteps she quickly stopped and hid.


Oliver loaded his gun or should he say guns, he loaded his handgun along with his Ak47 gun, Diggle and Roy were doing the same and Oliver knew now was not the time to ask Roy how he knew how to load a gun.

"You ever shot?" Oliver asks Roy.

"No" he shakes his head, "I've only ever used them to frighten people."

"Well today you shoot, I don't care what it takes we are getting her back" Oliver puts his gun in the back of his jeans and proceeds to leave.

Coming to a stand in the lobby of the mansion he looks round at several men who were standing there awaiting his orders. He quickly tells them the plan and then men leave to get into their cars.

"Ollie," Thea's voice says before Oliver leaves the manor. "Ollie be careful" she cries.

Oliver turns around and embraces his sister running his through her now short, "I will."

"I miss him" she cries.

Oliver bites the inside of his cheek there will be time to grieve for his father after he gets Felicity back. "Me too, I love you Speedy" he whispers.

"I love you too, Ollie" she pulls back and looks her brother in the eye. "Bring her home and look out for Roy."

"I will, don't think I don't know that something is going on there" he raises his eyebrow.

"We, we are going to tell you and Felicity, but it was never the right time."

"I'm happy for you, go and look after mom ok" he kisses her forehead and the leaves.

Oliver sat in the car with Diggle he looked around their surroundings, they were in the Glades near Verdant, Oliver saw about 5 cars in front of them. The Bratva made now movements until the other cars did. Slade came out of the car with his men at the same down. Oliver's anger fuelled when he laid eyes on Slade. He looked up around the surrounding buildings making sure none of Slade's men were up there. Not able to spot anyone Oliver opened the door and got out of the car as he men followed his lead. Oliver walked towards the middle where Slade stood.

"Hi kid" he smirks.

"Where is she?" Oliver wastes no time with his pathetic games.

Slade clicks his fingers as a man comes out with Felicity. Oliver can't see her face as he there is black bag on her head. He can see her blonde hair coming out of the tips, he can see the dress that she had worn to go to work that day and saw her famous blue nail varnish.

Oliver takes out the drive and proceeds to hand it over to Slade. "Same time" he spits out.

Slade nods as one of the men who are holding Felicity push her forward. She begins to walk slowly aware that she cannot see when she is in grabbing distance Oliver hands Slade the hard drive and quickly takes Felicity by the arm and pulls her towards him.

Slade takes the drive and begins to retrieve as Oliver works to pull the black hood off her face.

When Oliver takes the hood off her blonde mess of hair is in her face he quickly works to brush it back, suddenly his hands drop from her face as the woman looking back at him is not Felicity.

Oliver takes out his gun and points it to Slade as Slade's men quickly take out theirs. In all of the 10 seconds gun shots are fired in each direction, Diggle runs towards Oliver and pulls him back along with the woman they presumed was Felicity.

Once the gun shots have died down and the cars take off Oliver is left dumbfounded at what had just happened. He was a fool a stupid fool to think even for a minute that Slade would just give him Felicity. Oliver looks at the girl next to him he lifts her up by the arms and looks her over, she is wearing Felicity's clothes and they had clearly gone to the effort of doing her nails to look like Felicity.

"Where is Felicity" he yells at her. The scared girl shakes her head, Oliver shakes her and the girl cries out in pain until Diggle puts a stop to it.

"Where is the girl you got these clothes from?" Diggle asks her.

"She's dead" the woman replies.
