The Next Archer

Chapter 16

———

After an hour of cursing while her hair was brushed and learning how to walk in four inch heels, Artemis and Felicity were both ready. Artemis in her red short dress, that went to her knees, she had her hair curled to perfection like she wanted and just a bit of green eye shadow on. Felicity on the other hand, had a short dark green dress with a shade of blush on her cheeks that were almost unnoticeable by the naked eye itself. 

Both girls had no trouble with doing their nails, which Felicity kept commenting that Artemis had perfect nails and hands. Artemis didn't see the point of painting nails until hers were finally done and she had to be honest she liked the red color on her nails.

Artemis and Felicity finally left the building and drove to the Queen mansion early so they could help Oliver fix his tux and make sure everything was going to be fine, and it looked like so far it was going to be fine. But just in case, Artemis kept her crossbow in the trunk of her car and a stun gun on her thigh, in her purse that was easy to hide.

The two girls walked in to the mansion and looked around before Oliver came out from the living room with a small smile when he saw the two young women. "Well dont you both look wonderful today" he said flashing another smile as he hugged felicity and Artemis, his two 'girls' "So you two ready to have some fun? i actually invited some really fun people and three of them will be staying in the city for a while"

"I wonder who that could be, handsome" Felicity said straightening his tie, she still smiled peacefully as she awaited his answer to her question as previously stated.

Artemis looked down at the pictures of the Queen's Gambit, and one picture of Thea, Moria, Robert and Oliver Queen. "Mr. Barry Allen, Caitlin, and Cisco" he said and she looked up at him with wide eyes and a large smile "Oh Oliver! that is so wonderful! Thank you"

"Who are they?" Artemis said looking at the two of them completely clueless about he entire thing.

Barry Allen was a man who came to Starling city about a year and a half ago, claiming he had been sent to the city by his director but he had been lying but everyone believed him beside Oliver. Long story short, he was the man who started figuring out that there were super humans on a case and later helped them. 

But he was struck by lightning and fell into a comma that lasted a whole nine months, when he awoke he got powers or a mutation from the machine that caused his powers, he was amazed at what he could do and was found by Caitlin Snow, Harrison Wells, and Cisco Ramon, three people who kept him in their sights and took care of him while he was in a comma for nine months. He became a hero and the rest is history.

Felicity just smiled at the blonde "dont worry, you'll like them and Barry, btw knows Oliver's identity, so he might make a comment or two, long story but he isn't good at keeping secrets" she laughed and shook her head "they are seriously great though"

"Thats pretty awesome" Artemis said going into the living room as people started coming in, although it wasn't a building meeting or party because it was all people they knew, oddly enough except for a few people but there they were.

Laurel Lance, Quince Lance were there also and had said hello to Artemis, both commenting on her beautiful dress before going to Oliver and Felicity who were both busy talking to others at the moment.
