Shawn Queen walked into his father's office, something he did often when Oliver Queen was there. But on that day, Oliver was off being sneaky, leaving Shawn with a babysitter. But his babysitter was on the phone. He got on Oliver's chair and looked at the picture he kept on his desk. It was of a dirty blond woman with a little girl. Shawn frowned, not knowing who they were.

"What are you doing here?" Oliver asked, walking into the room.

Shawn looked up in surprise, not having noticed his father had returned home. Shawn looked at the picture and pointed to it. "Who's that?"

Oliver walked to the boy and looked at the photo. Shawn stared at him, seeing tears appear in his eyes. "Those are people of my past," he whispered, a small smile appearing on his face.

"Why haven't I met them before?" Shawn asked, leaning back against the chair.

"I'll tell you one day, when you're older," he responded, and Shawn pouted. His father picked him up and carried the young boy to his bedroom. "C'mon, it's past your bedtime."

"I'll go to sleep if you tell me a story," Shawn said, challenging his father.

Oliver let out a small laugh. "Alright, that sounds like a good deal.

Shawn beamed and got under the covers. He snuggled in the bed and looked up at his father.

"Once upon a time, there was this really strong woman. She was strong, brave and smart. The smartest person I had ever met. And she could defeat bad guys with a single scream," Oliver said, and Shawn listened intently. (Not knowing he was listening the story of his mother.)

"You're her sister?" Lauren asked, frowning.

Harry sighed, closing his eyes. "My father used his DNA and Superman, creating me. Wanted me to have his powers, but as you can see, it didn't work. So Father just pushed me aside. And Superman didn't want me either. So I'm going to make him hurt like he hurt me."

"Revenge doesn't help, trust me," Lauren told him, shaking her head.

Harry laughed, turning to Lauren. "You think I'm going to fuck up like you did? You're a hero. Killing is not who you are. But me? I'm a Luthor. It's in my blood."

"I am not going to help you," Lauren told him, gritting her teeth.

Harry smiled, his eyes on the girl in front of him. "I was hoping you were going to say that. I am going to break you. And you'll help me no problem."

He reached into his pocket and took out the controller. Lauren barely had time to react when he pressed it, She gritted her teeth as she felt the currents run through her body.

Camila punched the punching bag in front of her, watching it fly. She let out a frustrated yell, her eyes heating up.

"We can't keep replacing those," she heard someone say.

Camila closed her eyes and took a deep breath. "Lo's dad can pay for more." She turned to stare at Dinah, who was sitting on the ground. She gave the ground a pat. Camila sat down next to her.

"I know you're worried, but if anyone can protect themselves, it's Lauren," Dinah said, looking at Camila.

"They are hurting her. I know they are. Everyone has a breaking point," Camila whispered, staring at her hands.
