It's the aftermath of Laurels death today's her funeral. Everyone she ever loved her friends,family all attended to say goodbye one last time. Laurels mother even came. Felicity,Diggle and even Nyssa came Sara had no idea her sister was gone and nobody had yet to tell her.

Oliver came to say a few words for Laurel. Her gravestone was already made with her beautiful name Dinah Laurel Lance imprinted on the smooth stone. And at the bottom it said The Black Canary.

"Mr.Queen has come today to say a few words" a women said as Oliver walked up in front of everyone.

"Laurel Lance became a lawyer to help people who may have appeared helpless. She wanted to give a voice to the silent. But just being a lawyer wasn't enough. She wanted to do more for those people, and for this city. And she loved this city so much. She was a hero in every way that a person can be. And if Laurel were here, I know that she would expect all of us to live up to the example that she set. She'd want us to save our city. She was my life and she was the only reason why I never gave up and why I continued my mission to save this city" Oliver finished with tears in his eyes and held a rose in his hand Laurels favorite flower.

He placed the rose on top of her casket as a tear dropped to it. He wished so much that he could have saved her he wanted to trade his life and bring back the love of his life.

"I'm so sorry Mr.lance for your loss I did not know your Laurel to well but she was the best person I have met in my life" Nyssa said to Quentin "thank you aren't you Sara's friends" he asked "yes she's my beloved and she's on that silly time ship with her team" Nyssa said.

"Hi Ollie" Thea was finally back in town she had already knew Laurel had died because she gags watched her heart stop. "Laurel would expect more from us now that she's gone she wouldn't want us to bitter in sorrow we have to grow from this Ollie we have to make sure we don't let her legacy die we have to make her proud" Thea finished saying.

Oliver decided to head to the bunker where nobody was there. He walked up to her canary suit and smiled "a true hero" he said to himself. Felicity came down into the bunker when he saw Oliver. "Hey what are you doing down her alone?" She asked putting her hand on his shoulder. "I needed a minute to myself i had to gather my thoughts" he said.
"Your feel responsible for her death don't you?" Felicity asked.
"I do I really do because imagine if I had been there just think I could have taken that arrow for her"
"No don't think like that" Felicity said "she would of done anything to protect you she loved you"she finished saying. "Oliver leaned close to Felicity and laid his head on her shoulder.

Flashback begins:
Oliver is in Laurels apartment with her and there both eating mint chocolate chip ice cream together.

"Ollie can you hand me the remote please?" Laurel asked Ollie as she giggled at him.
"Where do you keep it at?"
"Me and Thea keep it under the sofa" she said "ok you guys are strange" Oliver laughed as he pulled it out from under.
"This tastes even better then the last time we did this and that's been like.....forever" Laurel said. "Ya I know".

Laurel later finished her ice cream and her and Oliver laid on the couch and watched a movie.

"What movie should we watch?" Laurel asked "how about we just talk" Oliver asked
"Ok about what?"
"I want to say I'm sorry" he started "for what?" Laurel was confused "leaving you,cheating on you and not thinking about you Laurel because before I was a jerk and now I'm just a damaged jerk" Oliver said.
"You might have cheated on me and left me but that wasn't your fault you got stranded on an island for five years and went through who knows what? Yes your a jerk but your not damaged you just need some fixing" Laurel said as she fell asleep on him.

Flashback ends
Olivers perspective: I know I can't blame myself but if I didn't I would still feel guilty she was my one reason on why I never ever gave up and always found a way on how to fix the situation even if it felt impossible. She was my love my life my everything the one I knew I could come and talk to her. I trusted her more then anyone in my life because if I told her I made a mistake she would take it to heart and understand it but...it's over now and now Laurels gone.

it's over now and now Laurels gone
