A Canary's Love (REWRITING)

Chapter - Twenty Four

The sun came through the window early and I rubbed my eyes. I went out for a walk. It was nice and then I felt a burn on my back. I turned and someone put a chloroform rag over my mouth. I fought for a few seconds before passing out and dropping my phone.

I was tied to a chair and Malcom Merlyn was standing above me watching. "Malcom." I said when I noticed my stomach was bleeding. "Hey look at that." I started laughing. "What's so funny?" He asked. "I'm in shock you idiot." I continued laughing and he moved me to a table. "I'll help you if you get me the ring." He said making me stop laughing.

"I won't do that." I said as he put his finger in my wound making me scream. "I won't ask again, maybe I'll go after your daughter." He growled. I threw my face into his. "Don't ever threaten my daughter!" I yelled as he put his finger deep within my wound.

Blood was dripping across my face as Malcom tortured me more. It was a full day of this and I was worn and pale. "I've endured worse. Keep going but I won't betray my family." I said. "Fine. Maybe Nyssa will give it to me over your dead body." He said as he slit my throat. As I fell back I saw thousands of imagines of my past flew by.

Nyssa's prospective

Merlyn has made contact with me. Saying he has my sister. That he's willing to trade her for the ring. I couldn't tell if he was lying so I called Sara. "Hello?" Her voice said. "Sara is Eliza with you? She hasn't picked up any of my phone calls." I said. "I woke up home alone. I think she could be in a meeting. Let me call her." Sara said and I hummed.

Sara called and told me she didn't pick up. I have had this bad feeling all day and called Merlyn back. "Where's my sister?" I growled. "She's a little bit tied up. Have you changed your mind?" He asked and I sighed. "My sister is a mother I wouldn't put her in danger. She loves that child too much." I said and he sounded like he was grinning. "Where can we meet?" I asked. "The boat docks is fine." He said and I hung up.

I called Oliver and told him Malcom
Merlyn has our sister. I told him I was at the docks and he told me he was on his way. I stood face to face with Merlyn. "Where's my sister?" I growled and he smiled. "She's behind that table. The ring please." He said and I tossed it.

He left and I ran to Eliza. I saw her in a sitting position and I was face to face with her. Her hair covering her face and as I moved her hair. Her throat was slit I screamed. "No!" I screamed and I saw Oliver. "We're too late Merlyn killed her." I said shaky. He saw her and tears escaped his eyes. "We can't leave her like this." He said and slowly picked her up.

We were at the basement of the Verdant and Oliver called Thea, Laurel and Sara. Roy and Felicity were already there and just shocked. "What happened?" Felicity asked balling. "Malcom Merlyn happened." I said with tears filling my eyes but I wasn't letting them fall as Thea and Laurel came down and both shocked of the body of my sister. "No! No. No." Thea wailed. Laurel hugged Oliver and then Sara came down with Charlotte.

"Ollie what did you need?" She called out from the top of the stairs and then she saw Eliza. "What is that? Where's Eliza?" She was terrified. "Sara." I said and she ran away.

We all went after her but she was gone. That's what we get for training her. I had my Assassins help me carry Eliza's body to our jet where we took her to Nanda Parbat. Merlyn was here and everyone was looking for Sara.

I convinced Merlyn to help bring my sister back for a small price, Me. I watched as they lowered her into the pit in a white dress.

When the chanting stopped nothing happened. After a few minutes they pulled up the table and she was gone. "Find her!" Merlyn yelled as she was behind him and twisted his neck. She removed the ring and shoved him in the water. "Eliza." I said as she held out the ring.

Eliza's Prospective

I was in water and alive. I remember Malcom killing me and then I got up and got behind him. I used the urge to kill on him and twisted his neck. I pulled off the ring and kicked him in the pool. "Eliza." Nyssa said. I held out the ring.

She took it and I glared at everyone. "Get some rest. We have a long day tomorrow." Nyssa said. "No. You have a long day. I want to see my wife and my daughter." I said walking to the jet in the soaking wet dress. Nyssa told me goodbye and I flew off.

When the jet landed I got off the the white dress flowed with the wind and I went to the house. When I walked in I saw Sara in a corner crying with Charlie in her arms and Oliver passed out with puffy eyes. There was glass broken behind me and I turned around seeing Thea. "What the hell?" Ollie's voice behind me as I was facing Thea. "How?" Thea's voice cracked. Sara stood behind and I was worn from the flight and being resurrected. "Lazarus pit in Nanda Parbat. And right before I killed Merlyn. It felt so good. But since I'm a good person. I kicked him in the water so Nyssa could take care of him. She's going to do so much worse than what he did to me. But for right now I'm here for my family. I'm here for you all." I said and Thea hugged me. "Thea when I'm done being happy I'm gonna kill you for breaking my coffee mugs." I said and she giggled with tears. Ollie came to me and hugged tight. "I'm not dead but if you squeeze any harder I might be." I said and he let me go. "You guys should go home. Sleep in your own beds. I'm fine." I said and they left.

I walked up to Sara and hugged her. "I'm sorry." I said. "For what?" She asked. "I went to go find you an early birthday present. Then this happened." I sighed. "Eliza. You being alive is all I could ask for. I love you. I'll love our daughter you've brought into this world. I love you." She kissed me and I kissed Charlie's forehead.

As the next year past Merlyn was in trouble town. Sara and I moved to Coast city and Charlie was a talker. We were a happy little family. With our ups and ours downs. We got through it together.
