By The Gods!

Part 3

Disclaimer: For the love of Hot Pockets, can you guests PLEASE start using a name or something so I know its not all the same person!? I chose to write 'Death Blazer' the way I did cause that's how I felt it should go. Because I am ALLOWED to write my way as I please unless SPECIFICALLY stated otherwise by the requester. If you think you can do better, by all means, write YOUR OWN version and make a remark about it so I can check it out. I very rarely read DC Comics, (Indie Comics all the way) which means I am not reading Batman Metal or whatever the Hell its called. I have no time to fully explore each idea about different Olivers in full on fics. Unless I'm mis-understanding that bit then I apologize. I also practically know little in the way of WildStorm material as it is.

I did in fact, catch on to the Blue Valley Easter Egg after seeing comments about it and looking into it more. I'm even writing a fic about Wally's time in Blue Valley called 'Mugwumpin' In Blue Valley', perhaps the guest who remarked on that could check that out and perhaps review it? Hell, maybe the ideas guest could actually review the contents of the chapters instead of using the review system to throw out new/same ideas all the time?

Anyways, here's some more Godly action for those who've been wanting it since chap 104. Takes place roughly 5 months after part 2's events. And also, this is gonna have a strong vibe of Eminem's 'Without Me' music video while reading this one. And maybe a little crackishness for good measure.

Summary: Thea makes one Hell of an entrance back into her brother's life!

The Foundry

Down in the bowels of Verdant where Starling City's own heroic crew of Vigilantes operated from, a highly volatile stand off was developing between two of the city's residents. These two had been friends, lovers, friends again, and lovers for a short time in between a host of things that had happened in their lives. Who are they you wonder? Why none other then Oliver Jonas Queen and Dinah Laurel Lance. One being the vigilante archer known as the Arrow with a penchant for green and a gruff demeanor. He's also been known to stick an arrow in you if he felt it was needed as Roy had the misfortune to find out once the previous year. Laurel on the other hand? She was a bad ass lawyer who'd gone through some issues that saw her hit rock bottom during Oliver's second year back from Lian Yu. But she'd been able to make her way back out of it and was going strong despite life throwing her curve balls here and there.

Now, you might be wondering why these two were having such an intense stand off that might remind one of the time the Rock and Hogan had their little moment. And its not because Laurel was pushing for making the Foundry a bit more homely like. Or that she felt her ex should call himself 'Green Arrow' since it felt more family friendly. A poll had even been done to show proof of that too much to his bafflement a few weeks ago. Dig, Laurel, Roy, an in the know Sin, and Felicity had found it highly amusing however. No, the standoff was over the fact that Oliver in his bullheaded stubbornness, refused to train Laurel despite her numerous requests for him to do so. "Why do you keep refusing like a stubborn jackass!?" Shouted out Laurel in high annoyance at her ex.

"And don't you dare use my dad for your argument cause so help me, I will hit you. I'll even Scream at you if it comes down to it." She warned seconds later.

Causing him to grimace as he'd learned rather painfully the first and only time to not ever use her dad for an argument again. Quentin had ended up dying from injuries gained in Slade's Siege. Injuries none of them had realized he had and Sara and Nyssa had ended up staying just a bit longer until the funeral came and went. The fact Ra's Al Ghul had allowed the two to remain until then had been surprising but no one was really going to complain. Laurel had barely said a word during the whole thing as she'd been afraid to speak as while holding her dad''s body in her arms, she'd let out a Hell of a scream. She'd later learn this was something that only members on her mother's side of the family had and it only ever was unlocked when moments of great emotional pain was felt. Dinah hadn't a clue of how it had gotten started but Laurel had hardly cared but it did at one point allow her to meet Ted Grant as he'd once worked with a Drake who had what he dubbed the 'Canary Cry'.

Even showing her how to control it so she wouldn't have to fear it causing problems. "I..."

"Yes? I'm waiting."

"Ooh, we need Popcorn." Murmured Sin to Roy, who snickered a short period of time until a glare came his way from his mentor.

"I don't want you a part of this, okay!? I care way too much about you and the last thing I want is for your sister and your mother to lose another member of the family cause you wanted to fight crime the vigilante way. I don't know what I'd do if I lost you, Laurel."

His passionate response had honestly floored Laurel and the others present and it made the lawyer feel moved by it. But it wasn't enough to dissaude her. "Ollie… I get that you're so worried, but please remember that this is MY choice. I want to be trained so that I can fight with you and the others. And how do you think I would feel if I lost you? So don't think for a second you're the only one here who has that worry, Ollie. If I have too, I will go to Ted since he's willing to train me." Threatened the future Canary.

Causing him to grimace yet again as he knew full well that the somewhat retired Ted Grant was more than willing to train her. As he wanted to see the rise of a new Black Canary since it'd been way too long since there had been one in his view. "Does anyone else wonder if they can bottle and sell Oliver's stubbornness?" Suddenly wondered Felicity and then blushed at the looks she was getting from the others.

"Right, sorry. That just slipped right out." She muttered embarrassedly while they grinned at her.

REALLY gotta stop that!

"Laurel… I, I think it might be better if you did go to him. The way I was trained… Was basically haphazardly due to having more then one teacher and even harsh at times. That's not something I want to put you through."

"Huh, that explains a lot." Muttered Roy where his own training from Oliver was concerned.

And making the man himself wince as he knew he hadn't exactly been the best mentor for his protege but it was turning around now. Or at least he hoped it was! Hell, it'd been hard enough admitting what he did to Laurel in front of everyone as it is! And he could tell she looked rather surprised by his words. "I… If, if you think that's for the best, Ollie."

Laurel would be lying if she said she wasn't disappointed since she felt his training her would help the two of them grow pretty close. But perhaps in time, when Ted had trained her pretty well, he might be more willing to give some training of his own when he was more comfortable with it. Her ex was about to speak when a song began to loudly play. One Oliver hadn't heard in years and would have been just fine not hearing again since Eminem was something his pre-island self loved to play just to annoy his parents at times. "Wait, where's Roy?" Dig suddenly asked in alarm.

"And where is that music coming from?" Wondered Felicity as she inspected the computers and even her own phone with no luck. "I don't know, man, he was right here!" Sin told him worriedly.

Oliver narrowed his eyes in growing annoyance and suspicion. Wondering if perhaps his old friend, John Constantine, was pulling some kind of joke with his magical abilities. "Come on, maybe someone upstairs did something with the speakers that's making the music so loud. Maybe Roy's up there too." Suggested the archer.

Which shouldn't be possible since he'd made the Foundry portion sound proof to block out all the music from upstairs. Not waiting for a response, he charged ahead and the others soon followed as they were all curious and worried. And once they had made their way up, the group was honestly shocked as a wall that hadn't been in the middle of the floor was there. And what looked like Roy in a red and green outfit with a yellow cape was climbing up it with a rope. A yellow 'A' could be seen on a little circle on his chest and the sight was something Oliver hoped he'd never ever see again as it looked beyond horrible. An Elvis Presley impersonator was even dancing about amongst the dancing employees. "What the Hell!?" Got out Dig in shock.

As he'd never seen anything like this before! "Are you guys seein' this or did I somehow get drugged?" He asked seriously.

"Man, if you're on somethin', so am I cause this is just really weird." Sin told him in a daze.

"ROY! Get down from there!" Barked out Oliver as he came towards the impossibly high wall.

"I CAN'T! AND TRUST ME, I'VE TRIED!" Yelled out a freaked Roy.

"This is getting really weird." Laurel muttered as she spotted a man in drag doing the Robot.

Just then, a figure somehow appeared right in front of the group with a spin on the floor that saw her lay on her side with her elbow and hand propping up her head. A smirk could be seen on her face as she wore all black with short hair. "Guess who's back!? So tell a friend!" Declared the smirking girl as Oliver's eyes widened.

And his wasn't the only ones either! "THEA!?"

"That's me boys and girls, the newest, most bitchin' Greek Demi Goddess to ever exist has arrived to make your lives so much better." Proudly proclaimed the sister that Oliver hadn't seen in months.

Even quickly picking her up and hugging her tightly to him. "Oh, eww, I've got big brother cooties getting all over me."

"You'll live."

Thea rolled her eyes good naturedly as while she may still be pissed with him for lying about certain things, she none the less was happy to see him. And once the big lug reluctantly let her go, she hugged Laurel and Sin, both of whom were quite happy to see her again. "Good to see ya again, Princess. Been way too quiet without ya."

"Well trust me when I say that its not gonna be quiet for a long time to come." Promised the Demi Goddess with a smirk.

Causing Sin to feel rather eager as that smirk just promised some really fun things. "For example, there might be days of yelling at my lying Hood of a brother over here. Oh, I'm sorry, Arrow of a brother." Continued Thea with a pointed look at her brother.

Who panicked a little on the inside. Clearing his throat, he began to talk. "I… I have no idea what you mean."

"Sure you don't, Ollie, sure you don't." She told him with an eyeroll and with a snap of her fingers, everything was back to normal.

Well… Except for Roy in his costume and the Elvis impersonator anyway. "Huh!?"

He didn't have much time to process what had just happened as he found himself being dipped and having one of the best damn kisses of his life from the girl he missed like crazy. Earning a wolf whistle from Sin while Oliver just glowered at the scene. Once she was done, Thea smiled at him as she helped him stand back to full height. "Damn, I missed those lips."

"Is anyone else confused right now? Cause I feel really confused. And that's never something that feels good to experience." Rambled Felicity.

"Buh?" Got out Roy.

Laurel and Dig both raised their hands to show their confusion. "Don't worry you pretty thang, the confusion will be swept away soon enough!" Promised the Elvis impersonator as he showed up at Felicity's side and wiggled his eyebrows.

Causing Oliver to take a look at the man and in so doing, his eyes would widen in shock. "DAD!?"

"Hoo! Ha! Ladies and gents, I do believe the Green Arrow's done figured it out!"

Thea just shook her head in amusement at her dad while Oliver just stared in shocked silence. And he wasn't the only one either! "Mom really shoulda chained you up to that pillar back on Olympus like she was threatening." Teased the girl with a smile.

"Ain't no fun in that, thank you very much!"

Author's Notes: May there have been much enjoyment from this one! I know I sure as Hell enjoyed writing it!
