The Return
Disclaimer: Damn... 300 chapters as of posting this, 181 favorites, 146 followers, 300,000 words, and close to 760 reviews, what a ride since 2015! I'm glad I gave Arrow a chance back in the day as it helped revitalize my interest in writing Fanfiction and has allowed me to meet a lot of folks over the years since I got back into writing Fanfiction. Its been a great ride and the fact I've reached this landmark is pretty freaking awesome and thank you to everyone whose been around since the beginning, the middle, and to this point. I don't know if this will reach another 300 chapters but one never knows. Now, let's roll on!
Summary: In the year 2052, Oliver Queen makes his return to the land of the Living.
Star City, Washington, At the Queen Mansion
As the evening began to set, a celebration was being held in full swing at the Queen Mansion and at the center of it, was William Clayton. The son of Oliver Queen and Samantha Clayton and the cause of celebrating you wonder? Why the fact he had finally found the perfect guy for him and the two had just gotten married that day. Many of his friends, his family members, and friends of the family, aka, fellow Heroes, had been part of the Wedding and Zoe Ramirez had even been his Best Woman for the event. And the two wouldn't have had it any other way considering how long the two had been best friends. "I am so proud and happy for you, big brother." A smiling Mia told William as the two enjoyed a dance together at the Wedding Reception.
"Thanks, Mia, that means a lot." He told her happily.
"I just wish Grandma and our Parents could've been here to see this." She told him somewhat sadly.
William's own smile turned a little sad but it didn't last for long as a memory came to the surface in his mind. "They may not have gotten too, but at least Grandma did get the chance to meet Silas and put the fear of God into him."
Both laughed at the imagery of that memory, one that had happened two years ago and shortly before Moira had succumbed to Father Time's effects. But she'd passed on a most happy woman in the end. And as Silas made his way over to collect his Husband for another dance or two before the two made their leave to get a start on their Honeymoon, a crackle of Lightning made an appearance in the Ballroom of the Queen Mansion. "I had nothing to do with this." Came an adamant and aged Barry 'The Flash' Allen from somewhere in the room and getting a shake of the head from his long time Wife, Iris.
The show of Lightning grew and made quite a few present began to get nervous while others prepared themselves for a potential fight. Soon, the Lightning somehow caused a man to form from it and soon afterwards, the Lightning disappeared as if it'd never been there. "Dad!?" Got out both William and Mia as the man who'd appeared was none other than Oliver Queen himself!
"W-William? Mia?" He asked in equal surprise and shock before collapsing to the ground as his kids and those who had known him, all rushed forward to check on him.
And as they did so, all of them wanting to know how the Hell this had happened. And if whether or not this meant some kind of potential trouble waiting to rear its ugly head.
Author's Notes: Once again, thank you, to everyone!
