This chapter is one that I believe has been in the making for awhile. While she's been mentioned several times throughout this story, I think it's time that Team Arrow finally had it's full reunion. Hope it's what you were hoping for.
"How's tracking Felicity coming along?" Oliver asked.
"I think I might actually be narrowing down her location." Curtis said.
"Where is she?" Oliver asked.
"It looks like she's been operating about Hub City, but I need a few more days to determine where exactly." Curtis said.
"Do whatever you have to do to find her. Felicity's one loose end I'd like to finally get tied up." Oliver said.
"I'm on it. Though this would be going faster if I wasn't to trying to make sure she can't detect what I'm doing." Curtis said.
"It's necessary. The one advantage we have over her right now is that she doesn't know we've accessed the Helix network. We can't afford to lose that." Oliver said.
"Fair point." Curtis said, right as the computers began to be beep.
"What's that?" Oliver asked.
"That was luck finally going our way. Felicity's trying to get into the system again, but this time, she'll be the one receiving a surprise. In trying to hack us when we're plugged into Helix's network, she's given up her location." Curtis said.
"Where is she?" Oliver asked.
"Keystone, 1159 Waterman Street." Curtis said.
"Text the rest of the team and tell them to suit up and meet me there." Oliver said as he headed to suit up.
"Curtis, you really should've done a better job of safeguarding the lair's network. Because now I'm going to take it down and stream it all to the public." Felicity said cockily, right as she heard a sonic scream pierce the air and the windows shattered and Green Arrow, Spartan and Black Canary jumped in through them.
"Felicity Smoak. You have failed Star City." Black Canary said as she punched Felicity out.
"Nice one." Green Arrow said.
"She deserved worse." Black Canary said.
"We should get her back to the lair before any more attention is drawn to us." Spartan said.
"Arsenal, is the van ready?" Green Arrow asked.
"Ready you are." Arsenal said over the comms.
"Then let's out of here." Green Arrow said as Spartan slung Felicity over his shoulder and carried her out.
When Felicity came to, she found herself nursing a killer headache and trapped inside the lair's cell. When she stood up, she found Oliver, Laurel, John and Roy, all of whom were wearing their suits aside from their masks (or in John's case, helmet), along with Rene, Curtis and Dinah, all of them glaring daggers at her.
"You know, if you wanted to talk to me, there were less drastic ways to do it." Felicity said.
"Except for you were very good at hiding. It's almost like you were afraid to face us." Oliver said.
"Well, considering how we left things, can you blame me?" Felicity said.
"Save it. You betrayed every single one us. And for what, a vendetta. Helix has corrupted you Felicity." Oliver said.
"No, they showed me who I really am. I'm someone who's sick of always being neglected or pushed aside. I wanted to make a difference and I'm doing that with Helix by giving people truth they want." Felicity said.
"And you don't care how many people's lives you ruin in order to do it?" Laurel asked.
"No I don't. And be lucky there's no computer archive of how you really came back Laurel, otherwise I would be leaking it to the world right now." Felicity said.
"I think that's all I need to hear. John." Oliver said, looking over at his best friend.
"I've already called Lyla, she's sending a team to extract Felicity and lock her up at ARGUS." Dig said.
"Good. Put her in maximum security, no access to tech." Oliver said.
"Agreed." John said.
"Seriously Oliver, after everything we've been through together, you're just going to lock me up like that. I thought we were closer than that?" Felicity said, trying a different angle.
"No, Felicity, you don't. If anything, I'm finally starting to see the real you. Someone who cares for no one but herself and always needs to feel important. And I think I always saw that, I just hoped that this team could help you change. But I was wrong and now you're going to be spending the rest of your life in a cell at Argus." Oliver said as he walked away.
Later on that night, Felicity was currently in handcuffs in an Argus truck under a heavily armed guard when suddenly the truck swerved to a stop and Felicity heard gunfire as the doors were pried open and every member of her security detail was shot dead by black arrows.
"Hello Ms. Smoak. We've been looking for you." Malcolm Merlyn said.
"Why me?" Felicity asked.
"I'm forming a team of people who want revenge against the Green Arrow and have a specialized skillset. I think you qualify. You interested?" Malcolm asked.
Felicity looked up at him considering.
