If she knew...

Twisted truths

Oliver's POV

"Felicity how much further?" I ask on my way to stop a hostage situation, since Laurel was closer I told her to go and wait. I had Felicity ping her phone before we left. I was on my way when I got the weirdest reply.

"Apparently the hostages have already been freed and the gunmen arrested." She says through the Bluetooth speaker.

"WHAT?" I ask in disbelief and surprise, as well as overwhelmed with confusion.

"Oliver...This was accomplished by..." she pauses briefly. She usually did when she couldn't believe her eyes.

"Felicity...?" I ask, while encouraging her to continue.

"It was done by two women wearing leather, one using what appeared to look like a police baton and the other was using an approximately 9ft tall Bo staff." She says as disbelief is evident then we asked the same question simultaneously.

"Could it be Sara?" we ask at the same time as I start speeding up my bike to find out this mysterious person. I made it to the building in record time. I entered and saw Laurel as Laurel talking to various officers, and then I spotted another woman in the shadows, whom I pursued. I climbed the stairs to the secondary level maze and went towards the roof exit. That's when I saw someone who I never thought I would see again.

"Sara." I say softly, close to a whisper.

"Hey Ollie." She responds the sound of her voice was soothing.

"You're okay." I say half surprised.
"How?" I ask as confusion sets in.

"It's a bit of a long story, I'll try to shorten It." she says beginning the shorter version of her tale. "Merlyn brought me back to life for reasons to do his bidding." She pauses "He wants me to take on the league and he thinks I will know his motives." She says leaving me even more, dumb founded than before.

"You mean he wants you to challenge Ra's." I say trying to clarify the statement.

"Perhaps. I don't know. I found out that tonight too." She says matter of factly. I was unsure if I was dreaming or was hallucinating around the idea. She walks over to me and I feel a hand on my arm, she was here. "It's been a long time Ollie, too long." She says softly. I smile and I couldn't believe she was okay.

"Laurel knows?" I ask looking at the brunette below. She nods slowly.

"I wasn't planning on telling you, at least not yet." She said sincerely. "Bumping onto Laurel changed all that." She finishes.

"I'm glad you're back." I say.

"Thanks, but I don't know if I can be." She says softly and turning away from me. That's when I realized we were on the same building we were on that night when she fell. I was supposing she was feeling something related to that day.

"Sara..." I say putting a hand on her shoulder. She turns around to face me.

"Sorry but I was just remembering things. About the fall I was still conscious when I was falling." She whispers barely audible.

"It's okay, you're safe." I say hugging her lightly. "I've missed you, Felicity was right." I say softly.

"I did visit her subconsciously, as weird as that sounds." She says seriously.

"Shall we head back to the foundry to crack the news to the rest of the team?" Laurel asks joining us on the roof.

"Yeah let's go!" Sara says heading towards the stairs, with Laurel and I behind her.
