The Canarrowverse : Chapter 5

As Oliver stepped onto the rooftop, he spotted a shadowy figure on the other side. He had a feeling like he knew who it was but he wasn't quite sure. "Who are you?" Oliver said in his disguised voice. "An old friend mate." He said with his British accent. Constantine. Oliver hadn't seen him since he was on the island. "Constantine? What are you doing here?" Oliver asked, dropping his disguised voice. "I'm looking for someone, someone you might know." Constantine said as he turned to face Oliver. He hadn't changed a bit. "Are you acquainted with Ken Williams?" He inquired. Oliver remembered as he realised the millions of dollars Williams stole. "Yeah, I ran into him. What do you want with him?" Oliver asked, puzzled. "He knows someone I have information on, but I won't kill him if that's what you're asking." he said in a sarcastic voice. Oliver knew he shouldn't need to ask that question but he needed to, just in case. "Once I head back to my base I will send you his location to your phone." Oliver said not wanting to introduce him and magic to the others as it will be too long.

After a few more minutes the two said goodbye as they split and Oliver thought that for a moment, just for a moment, Sara had been standing there, waiting for Oliver. He noticed his phone had been blaring at him for a while but he wasn't focused on that as he was drifting through his thoughts. "What is it?" Oliver said, half concentrated on listening, half on his thoughts. "Thank god! Where were you?" Felicity said as her relieved tone changed into frustrated and annoyed. "Meeting with an old friend. I'm heading back now." Oliver said not wanting to engage in a conversation right now.

It was a slow drive back as Oliver arrived when the clock struck 10pm which only left Diggle down there as Roy and Felicity had left. Oliver walked down the stairs quietly, wanting to be unnoticed. But Dig wasn't much for sleep as he was there still awake. "Took you long enough." Dig said as he swung the chair to face his friend. "Yeah I just got caught into a dealing with an old friend." Oliver said as he started to remove his quiver. " Yeah, I heard. Well, I think I better get going since Lyla might be getting worried." Dig sighed as he got up and slowly walked to the stairs. "Goodnight." Oliver shouted as he heard Dig repeat the words as he finished removing his suit. The doors then shut...
