Sara's Decision

Chapter 11

"Sara, that is not possible. I stabbed Slade in the eye with an arrow. There is no way that he could have survived that." Oliver said.

"He did and he about tore us all apart. He told Laurel who you were. He told Thea something and she hated you for it because she thought you were keeping from her for years instead of a couple of weeks. He had me wanting to kill so I left. Roy was injected with mirakuru and he was angry and when he lost control one time, I was going to kill him, if not for you. So, basically we just need to be honest with each other and we will be able to stick together." Sara said.

"Ok, so what is this about me lying to Thea?" Oliver asked.

"It is about her father." Sara said.

"What did he tell her that dad cheated on mom and she got mad because I didn't tell her?" Oliver asked.

"No, it is about who her father is." Sara said.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Oliver asked.

"Your mother had an affair Oliver. Thea was the result of that affair." Sara said.

"Who is Thea's father, Sara?" Oliver asked.

"I am sorry to say this, but it is Malcolm Merlyn." Sara said.

"Man, even when we think we are done with him he still finds a way to miss things up." Laurel said.

"Just be honest with Thea, Ollie. Everything will be ok then." Sara said and Oliver nodded.

"So, what are you going to do Ollie?" Laurel asked.

"I am going to give mom a chance to come clean. Depending on what she does, she will either tell Thea or I will." Oliver said.

"I think that is the best way to do this. You need to give your mom a chance to come clean before you just go in and tell Thea yourself." Laurel said.

"I hate to ask this, but will y'all come with me? I need people there to keep me in line. I don't need to blow up on mom." Oliver said.

"Sure Ollie. Let's all change clothes and then head to mansion." Sara said.

After they were don't getting ready to leave to head to the Queen mansion, Oliver rode his motorcycle home while Laurel and Sara rode in Laurel's car. When the got to the mansion they all got their stories straight on how they got the information that Thea was Malcolm Merlyn's daughter.

"Mom, can you come to the sitting room? There is something that we need to talk about." Oliver said.

"I will be there in a minute." Moira said.

Oliver and the Lance girls waited for Moira in the sitting room. When she entered the room, she was surprised to see that it wasn't just Oliver sitting there waiting for her.

"I wasn't expecting to see you here, Sara and Laurel. Not that it isn't good to see you." Moira said.

"You might think differently about that soon." Sara said under her breath.

"What was that?" Moira asked.

"I said it was nice to see you too." Sara said and Moira nodded.

"So, what did you need to talk about Oliver?" Moira asked.

"I will let Laurel explain that to you." Oliver said and everyone turned to Laurel.

"Once the DA's office figured out what Malcolm Merlyn was trying to do with his undertaking, we started digging into all of his records. It appears that he found out not long before his death that he had another child. So, we had to follow ever lead to find out who this child was. We found that he had a DNA test run against someone and that is what told us who his other child was." Laurel said.

"Mom, you need to tell Thea the truth now or I will." Oliver said.

"This was all supposed to be covered up. I don't know how Malcolm found out about this." Moira said.

"It doesn't matter mom. You need to tell her." Oliver said.

"I need to do no such thing. With Malcolm dead this will never see the light of day. Why tear your sister's world apart over something that no one else knows." Moira said.

"Again mom, either you tell Thea, or I will." Oliver said starting to get mad.

"Well, I am not telling her. If you want to break your sister's heart go ahead." Moira said.

"Ok then. I will be moving out of here tomorrow and Thea will be coming with me. I don't want to be around someone like you and I don't want my sister around you either." Oliver said.

"Oliver, you do what you have to do. I will not be blackmailed into doing something that I don't agree with." Moira said.

"Ok, we will be moved out by the end of the week." Oliver said.

Oliver went up to Thea's room and said "Start packing up everything that is important to you. We are moving out by the end of the week."

"Why would I move out of here. I don't have to pay to live here." Thea said.

"You will want to leave once I tell you what I am going to tell you." Oliver said.

"What is so bad to make me want to move out?" Thea asked.

"I just found out something that mom has been keeping from us that is really going to hurt you, but you need to know." Oliver said.

"Ok, now you have me worried." Thea said.

"Ok Speedy, this is going to be hard for you to hear. Dad is not your dad." Oliver said.

"What do you mean he is not my dad? Who else could be?" Thea asked.

"Malcolm Merlyn." Oliver said.

"No. That can't be true. My father can't be that murderer." Thea said.

"Sorry Speedy but mom confirmed it to Sara, Laurel, and I just a few minutes ago." Oliver said.

"I will be happy to move out with you. I can't stay her with that liar." Thea said.

"I thought that was how you would see things after your found out." Oliver said.

"So, I am assuming that Sara will be living with us as well?" Thea asked.

"Yes, she will. Are we ok? I mean I know that this is not easy for you, but I hope you don't think differently of me because of this. I still love you the way I have my whole life. I hope that doesn't change for you." Oliver said.

"Nothing will ever change the way I feel about you Ollie. Unless you pull something like mom did." Thea said.

"That will never happen." Oliver said as he and Thea headed out to find a new place to live.
