Secret Origin of Rebecca Allen [ under editing ]

Chapter Eighteen

"There was an accident." Oliver explained lamely and Caitlin rushed over, looking slightly abashed. "Why are we still out here?! In the cortex now!" She instructed and Barry ran normally towards the cortex, the emerald archer followed with heavy steps. Felicity's heels made little popping sounds as she followed everyone and eventually caught up to Barry. The blonde rubbed her small hand on his shoulder, "She's going to be okay." She said soothingly. Oliver laid Rebecca's down on the hospital looking bed in the middle of Star Labs. She looked broken. Frail. Everything she wasn't. Oliver sat down next to her and grabbed her hand, feeling extremely guilty. Cisco, a man with crazy long black hair, grabbed the medical cart they used on Barry and pushed it over to the bed. Caitlin immediately grabbed a needle and injected it in the site of the wound. "It's a numbing agent." She explained quickly as she then got some medical pliers and gripped onto the arrow tightly and started to pull it out. Along the way it ripped flesh and muscle. "That's gonna take a while to heal." She mumbled and than moved out of the way to let Cisco do the stitches because her hands were too shaky. Cisco stepped in and pulled a lock of black hair out of his face and started to stitch Rebecca up. Slowly he brought the skin together and held it together with the string. He finished the long life of stitches and cut off the needle and securing the stitches. They also treated the small cuts and iced the bruises. "She took quite the beating Mr. Allen." Wells said as he finally rolled into the cortex. "You don't have to be a genius to figure that out." Oliver interjected, frowning. "And you are?" The Dr asked. "Oliver Queen." He replied compliantly. "And your friend? She was the one who called." Harrison replied "I'm Felicity Smoak." She piped up, giving a shaky smile. A while later, Rebecca woke up. Her eyes were filled with worry and her hand jolted to her stomach she felt the pangs of pain flow through her. "Hey. Hey. Hey. Take it easy." Oliver cooed, sweeping a piece of hair out of her face. Barry rushed over with tear filled eyes. "I thought I was going to lose a sister too, Becca." The new found speedster said quietly, looking down at the floor. Her eyes filled with guilt "I'm so sorry Bar." She whispered. "Wait. So that's your sister? I was totally going to hit that." Cisco said disappointed. Everyone laughed even Rebecca and Caitlin slapped Cisco's arm, frowning slightly. "Cisco!" She scolded. "Now is not the time." She muttered to him. He put his hands up in defense and took a few steps back "okay okay Dr. Snow." He said mockingly. Caitlin rolled her eyes and turned back to Rebecca "how you feeling?" She asked. "Honestly, like shit. But lying, I am brilliant." Rebecca smirked as she spoke. "Becca, can you tell me what you remember?" Barry asked. She shot a look over at Oliver. "I remember someone, I don't know who they were in a mask, and they attacked me when I got into my apartment." She had to lie to protect Oliver, even if it meant lying to Star Labs and Barry. Felicity pursed her lips, knowing the truth and Oliver gave her a 'thank you' look and she nodded slightly in response. "So Back in Central City." She sighed.
