Say Sister,
Can I Borrow
A Dollar?
Disclaimer: This is something of a teaser idea for a future scene in the 'On His Dime' world.
Summary: Its been a re-match years in the making between two sisters.
"You sure I can't talk you out of this? Because there are honestly better ways to handle this." Laurel 'Black Canary' Lance said to her younger sister.
Known as Sara 'The Canary' Lance. Whom just scowled and sneered at her older sister in the ruins of a former apartment complex somewhere in Central City. "Yeah, I'm sure. I'm done playing second fiddle to you, Laurel."
"And I'm sorry to see that you still can't see that not everything is about Ollie. And that you're about as immature as ever." Replied Laurel sadly.
Her line about being second fiddle was somewhat ironic for Laurel considering there had been a few times in her own life where she felt like she'd been the one to be second fiddle when it came to her younger sister. Whereas she had become a beloved figure in Central as both her regular self and as Black Canary due to her tireless efforts to bridge the gap between normal folks and Metas, her sister had slowly fallen into a dark pit of jealousy and anger. Jealousy that Oliver would never look at her the way he did Laurel or any other woman when they managed to crack his armor. And anger because Laurel could be in the light and thrive so well where she couldn't for one reason or another. Because Central and Star were like night and day and it often times felt too much like Sara and the others in Star were constantly fighting an uphill battle and she hated that. Hated that it felt like her sister and her friends in Central appeared to have it easier.
And despite the fact Laurel never gave Oliver another chance beyond friendship, it still bothered the Hell out of Sara because she was dead certain the two would eventually find their way back to one another. When she felt certain it was her and Ollie who were meant to be together and that's why after years of growing resentment and the like towards her older sister, Sara was finally doing something about it in this ruined apartment complex and was quite pleased her bit of trickery to get her older sister here had worked. "And don't think just because you've been dealing with all these Metas and being trained here and there that you'll be able to kick my ass, Laurel. I still got a few years on you and this WILL end like it did last time but without someone interfering. That little scream of yours isn't gonna mean shit here either." Added Sara coldly as she readied her Bo-Staff.
Laurel sighed as she readied her own Nightstick. "Guess we'll see, little sister. Guess we'll see."
Dad was going to be SO pissed off but it wasn't going to be her fault and nor would she take any potential blame. She tried to get her sister to see reason and Sara refused. The two wasted no further time and charged at the other with a yell.
Author's Notes: Remember, this is a teaser and not a final thing. If I ever continue the world of 'On His Dime' it might not even get to this kind of point.
