The Ocean Arrow

That Wasn't Part Of The Plan

I also stole this scene from Arrow. So cool. I give them credits so don't sue :)

Percy

We just arrived at the prison and something had already gone wrong.

"Get the thorns off of me!" I scraggled around in circles, trying to get the thorns off of my shirt and arms. "Calm down, calm down, you're going to give away our position if you keep yelling that loud," Oliver pulled my shirt which made me flop on the ground, and I sat still while he plucked the thorns off of me.

Curtis was quietly laughing on the side, "I told you that we should've gone the high route. But noooooo, you just insisted that we go through the low route right through the thorn bushes. Good thing none got on our face," he said as he plucked a thorn out of his glove.

"Whatever, there were guards all over the perimeter. They would've saw us."

"Boys boys, stop arguing," Felicity said in our ears. "There are four guards coming up on your position, so you either shut up or move."

"We shou-" but Oliver covered my mouth before I could finish my sentence, and I shut up.

Just in time too.

In our spot, we saw four guards come in on our right. Just like Felicity predicted. And they walked away.

Oliver freed his hand from my mouth and I let out a deep breath. "Your glove does not taste good by the way. Totally don't recommend eating it."

"I swear-" Oliver began but stopped himself. "Nope. We are here to rescue Diggle. Not argue. Felicity? Lyla here yet?"

"Mhm, she's waiting for you outside the gates, you should go quickly before they find that unmoving truck suspicious."

We all stood up and Oliver led us away from view towards the truck. "Who's Lyla?"

"We already explained this for you, Percy," Oliver whispered harshly.

"Hey!- I forget things quite easily, excuse you. And it also may or may not be because I was tuning you out after you said 'once we get to the gates,'" I complained.

"You are really making my blood boil right now. How has nobody just felt the urge to wrap their hand around your neck and strangle you?"

"Oh, please, there have been plenty of attempts. That have not worked by the way. But if it'll make you feel any better, I'll shut up. Once I know Lyla is."

Curtis spoke up from behind me. "How have you not heard our conversations? Lyla is the Director of A.R.G.U.S. and Diggle's wife."

"What's A.R.G.U.S.? You know, I have a friend named Argus. He's cool. Has like- a thousand eyes all over his body and doesn't talk. But yeah, he's cool." I chuckled.

"I don't know what to say to that," Curtis looked at me weirdly as if he didn't believe me.

"You said you'd shut up. So do it," Oliver scowled, flashing me a side eye.

"yoU saId yOu'd ShUt uP. sO do IT," I mocked in a higher voice like I did with Felicity.

"You really seem to do that a lot, don't you?" And Oliver stepped over a log which I almost tripped on.

"Yup," I said, popping the 'p'. I hopped over another fat stick and ducked under some pointy branches, but I think I heard poor Curtis get attacked by some of those branches behind me.
