Brooklyn Archer //Book Four// - Legends of Tomorrow - COMPLETED

Chapter 15 - The Getaway

MAKE SURE TO CHECK OUT MY SUPERGIRL FANFICTION: WILLOW GREENE

3rd Person POV

Most of the crew stands around the console, watching a news report

"Let me just say this, and I want to say this for the television news." President Nixon says on the video. "The people have a right to know whether or not their president is a crook. Well, I am a crook." The crowd gasps. "Oh, actually felt good to get that off my chest. What other secrets have I been holding back? Ah, yes, despite the constant reassurances of my wife, I know that I'm certainly only an adequate lover."

More gasps

"The President won't be taking any more questions at this time." Someone says, pulling Nixon off the stage

"That is more about Tricky Dick than I ever needed to know." Sara says, pausing the video

"And it's more than the public needed to know. In the days following the news conference, Nixon found himself unable to tell a lie resulting in global chaos." Gideon announces, bring up an article

"Nixon's blathering fouled up ongoing peace talks and trade agreements." Charlie reads

"Without the release of All the President's Men, Robert Redford's career floundered." Ray reads

"What? No Redford?" Mick asks. "No Sundance, no indie film, no artful nudity. We have to fix this!"

"The only thing nastier than a politician lying is when he says how he really feels." Charlie says. "Now, there's no way he'd tell the truth without a magical assist."

"I hope the Watergate has vacancies, because we need to make sure that Nixon still cheats the press." Sara says

"Uh, Captain's orders and all, but do you think it's really the best time to be back on mission?" Ray asks

"Yeah, I mean, it might do well to take a beat." Charlie says

Brooklyn leans against the console, listening

"I appreciate your concern, but I'll be fine." Sara says. "Just because Ava and I had a disagreement doesn't mean that I can't do my job." Brooklyn gives her a look

"I was actually talking about the fact that we're on the outs with the Time Bureau." Ray says

"Yeah, and I was talking about Mona." Charlie says. "I mean, Hank's gonna be after us since her boyfriend offed that agent and, well, we can't just stash her here forever."

"Right, well, it has been eventful but things are gonna blow over with The Bureau." Sara says. "We'll find a safe place for Mona. And in the meantime, I feel like we should be doing what we do best. Am I right?"

"Right." Mick says. "Save Redford and independent film." He leaves

"That's the spirit." Sara says, leaving after him

"Done it for worse reasons." Ray says

"Why not?" Charlie says with a shrug

Ray and Charlie leave and Brooklyn, alone, who shrugs her shoulders before following the rest of her crew out

Brooklyn walks into the hallway with a baby monitor in hand and over to the bathroom where she finds Mick waiting outside

"Hey, Creeper." Brooklyn greets, pulling to a stop

"Not a creeper." Mick says

"Oh, yeah?" Brooklyn asks. "Who's in the bathroom."
