The Omega Project

Untitled Part 10

A.R.G.U.S. Stronghold - United States

Felicity hugged Roy tightly as they took their seats in the "play room". He looked tired, and Felicity was concerned about him. The expirements could easily take their toll on even the strongest person, and Roy was one of the strongest Alpha's Felicity had ever met.

"Are you doing ok Roy?", she asked as she shuffled the cards.

"Just tired. They had me up late last night trying to isolate some one of my Alpha genes. I am so tired I don't even remember which one. But I did what you said Felicity. I took the pill they gave me and placed it under my tongue. It clotted my blood enough to screw with their results. It worked but they were not happy about it.", he said.

Felicity smiled. She was not happy that Roy had a tough night but she was glad that the pill worked. She had learned from her Mother when she was young how to direct medications to specific areas of the body. This was good Alphas and Omega, because it was a technique that allowed them to heal faster. It was a old technique that had been passed down on her Mother's side of the family, and Felicity had never been more grateful for it than at this moment.

Felicity told Roy about her time with Sophie. He smiled when he thought of the beautiful little girl that he would defend with his life. She was amazing. Just like her mother.

Felicity looked down at her cards when all of the sudden she heard a cry of such despair, such pain, that the pain radiated in her chest causing her to loose her breath. She started gasping for air as tears filled her eyes. Roy rushed to her side and she looked at him in shock. She clutched him close and whispered, "I just felt and heard Oliver.", she said in shock. Roy looked at her in surprise, and when the Agent came over to check on them, he brushed him away. "She just had heartburn.", he said. The Agent gave them a funny look and walked off.

Felicity's face was filled with anguish. "He is in pain Roy!", she said, her heart beating rapidly. "He's in pain and I can't do anything. I don't know anything.", she said, growing angry.

"I know Lis. But you have to remain calm for Sophie's sake. We are going to get out of here and hopefully you will be reunited with Oliver. Just try to stay strong." He didn't know what else to say. The pain in her eyes was haunting.

As the pain subsided, Roy just held her. Oliver! She missed him so much it was sometimes a physical pain. But this pain had been different. It was pain that radiated to her very soul. She prayed he was ok.

Oliver's Penthouse

Oliver sat on the floor looking at the destruction around him. He quietly stood, the pictures still gripped in his hands, and made his way to his room. Stripping his clothes, he laid the pictures on his bed, and headed to take a shower. As the hot water coursed down his body, he remembered a couple of days before Felicity had disappeared.

"Oliver! What are you doing?", Felicity said with a grin, as she laid in their bed. Oliver was kissing his way down her stomach, and it was causing her to squirm.

"Waking up my beautiful mate the way she should be woken up in the morning.", he said, moving back up to kiss her gently on her lips. "Good Morning beautiful."

"Good Morning!", she smiled. "So what do you have planned for today?", she said gently running her fingers through is hair. He laid his cheek on her chest and smiled.

"Staying in bed with you?", he said hopefully.

She playfully slapped his shoulder. "Umm, no! Aren't you suppose to help Tommy move today?"

Oliver groaned. "Yes, don't remind me."

"You promised him Oliver." she said and gave his head a scratch lightly with her nails. He purred deep in his chest.

"Ok.", he mumbled, completely relaxed, his eyes closed in bliss. "I will get up soon." He did finally get up, an hour later.

Oliver opened his eyes as the memory left. His mate, his Felicity, his joy was taken from him. And they were doing things to her that he couldn't even think about without becoming physically sick. And their daughter. Was she being experimented on as well? He had to stop thinking like that or his rage was going to consume him. He turned off the water, and stepped out drying his body. He needed to call John and they needed to work out a plan. If he had his way, he would be at A.R.G.U.S., right now, but he also knew that would endanger Felicity and their daughter. He had to use his control for now. But only for now.

Plane to Gotham

After Oliver had left, John had immediately booked a flight to Gotham. He needed to see Cooper. He just prayed that A.R.G.U.S., had not already gotten to him. He needed more information about this "Omega Project" and he hoped that Cooper might have the answers. From what he could figure out Cooper must have been paid by A.R.G.U.S., to get Felicity.

As soon as his plane landed, he texted Lyla that he had arrived, and ran to the rental car kiosk. Grabbing the keys he drove quickly to Cooper's house. But when he got there, his stomach twisted in knots. The front door was wide open. John slowly pulled to the curb and checked the safety on his gun before stepping out of the car. He approached slowly, all of his army training and instinct kicking in. Something was not right. Inching his way up to the front door, his gun drawn, he glanced around outside, before taking a step inside. The place was ransacked, like there had been a struggle. Damn! A.R.G.U.S., must have gotten to him. John kept his gun level as he wandered around the room. It was a mess. Deciding the place was empty, he called Lyla.

"Hey, it's me. They got him.", he said, gritting his teeth.

"Come home Johnny. We will figure something else out.", Lyla said.

John gave one more look around before he headed back to the airport. He needed to get in touch with Oliver.

However, as his plane touched back down in Star City his phone rang. It was Oliver.

They agreed to meet at his office. They had some plans to make.

Star City Detective Agency

Oliver pulled up and ran inside. John and Lyla were waiting for him, and they closed the door as he took a seat.

"They got Cooper.", John said. Oliver sighed. "Now we need to figure out what our plan for extraction is going to be.", John said, his military training taking over.

Oliver looked at them both. "I think I should do this alone.", he said. John and Lyla just shook their heads.

"No, not happening Oliver." John said.

"John I can never repay you and Lyla for what you have done for me. But I can keep you from getting any further involved in this." he said.

John walked over and pulled a chair up so he was face to face with Oliver. "Oliver we have been involved in this from the moment we signed on to help you. I could not in good conscious stop here. We both want to get Felicity and your daughter out of there.", he said. "Your stuck with us man."

Oliver looked at them and when Lyla nodded her head, he agreed.

"Now, let's make a plan.", John said.

A.R.G.U.S. Stronghold - United States

Cooper angrily paced in the room they stuck him in. He didn't know what the hell was going, and had demanded to talk to Waller. So far he had been waiting over an hour for her to show up. He finally heard the door open, and Waller walked in with two Agents, and she was angry.

"What the hell am I doing here Waller?", he asked.

"Cooper I would advise you to watch your tone with me. The fact that you had a conversation with John Diggle has you on very thin ice right now.", she said. Her voice cold.

"I didn't say anything.", Cooper said, in shock.

"We know. But I can't risk you screwing up. You are going to be our guest for awhile.", she said.

"What? But what about my job? I can't just not show up for work. I will lose my job.", he whined.

"That is not our problem Mr. Seldon.", she said, before turning and walking out of the room.

Cooper let out a sigh of relief. Well at least they didn't kill him.
