Arrow - A New Earth to Save

Chapter 17

Laurel ended up winning her case against Edward Rasmus with the Testimony of the Moore's. She also ended up adding 6 counts of attempted murder to the charges against Rasmus after the police had found the link between him and the hitman that had attacked them. When she was done with court for the day, she meets Oliver at his campaign office, which happened to be the same one he used last time. That meant that it also had the new place for their lair under it.

Oliver and Laurel went down to check the place out. When they got there, they were surprised at how empty it looked. "Looks like Cisco and Felicity have their work cut out for them but it will be nice to be in this place again. It has a whole lot more room." Oliver said.

"Yeah it will be nice not to be all over each other all the time while we are trying to train." Laurel said and Oliver nodded.

"The only bad thing about this place is that you died while we were using it. I will not be letting that happen again." Oliver said.

"I am better trained this time and you know if you give me a tattoo like you had last time, I might be able to stop Darhk myself." Laurel said.

"You know, that is not a bad idea." Said Oliver and then he summoned his specter power and the next thing Laurel knew, she looked down at her abs and saw the tattoo there.

"Well that is going to be handy." Laurel said with a smile and then giving Oliver a kiss.

After they were done checking out the new lair Oliver had a meeting with Alex, who he hoped to hire to run his campaign again. Thea was in charge of hiring the interns again and when he looked around, he saw that she already had the office full of people who were making phone calls and sending letters to people asking for their support for Oliver.

"No wonder I named you Speedy. I mean how did you get so many interns so fast?" Oliver asked.

"I do run a club Ollie. All I did was leave some flyers up there and asked if people were willing to help support you in the mayor's race. It doesn't hurt that you are popular to all of the millennials either." Thea said.

"Well good job. I knew I liked you being my chief of staff for a reason." Oliver said and Thea just smiled at him.

Oliver then had his meeting with Alex and decided to hire him again to be his campaign manager. Oliver then looked at his desk and saw a note on it. He called his secretary in and asked, "When did this message come in?"

"It came in a couple of hours ago. He said that he would like to set up a meeting with you and you had a opening at three, so I set it up for then. I hope I didn't do something wrong." The secretary said.

"No, its fine. I just didn't see it until now. I guess I better get ready for the meeting. Thank you." Oliver said.

The secretary nodded and left, and he turned to Laurel and Thea and said "Y'all can stay for this meeting if you want."

They both nodded and they all waited until it was three and their guest knocked on the office door and entered. Oliver slipped on his memory ring really quick and then he went to shake hands with his guest and the guest said, "It's good to see you kid."

"Good to see you to Slade. So, do you have all of your marbles or are you crazy again?" Oliver asked.

"I do have my sanity this time because I know you had nothing to do with Shado's death. Oh, and she is still alive by the way." Slade said.

"Good to hear. So, why are you here in my city Slade?" Oliver asked.

"Blood hired me to come here and cause chaos so that people would want him as the new mayor. He even paid me to kill you. But I now have other thoughts about that. Do you happen to have that cure yet?" Slade asked.

"No, not yet. Do you really want to take it?" Oliver asked.

"Yeah it's not like I need the Mirakuru and I have already got like twenty soldiers that need to be cured as well." Slade said.

"A friend is working on it now. While you are here, how about you help me out with Blood. You stay as an inside man in his plans and when siege starts to happen again we will take down Blood. What about Rochev?" Oliver asked.

"She got me access to the machine that I needed to transfuse the blood into all of the soldiers. The only place that had one was Merlyn Global." Slade said.

"Does she have the Mirakuru in her?" Thea asked.

"Yes, she does, and she is really looking forward to coming after your family for what your father did to her." Slade said.

"Doesn't surprise me." Oliver said.

"Oh, by the way kid. I will be giving a donation to your campaign. Blood is a prick and does not deserve to be mayor." Slade said.

"Well, at least we agree on something." Laurel said not really knowing this Slade that was friends with everyone on the team now.

"You don't have to worry about me Mrs. Queen. I am a friend. And by the way, congratulations on the wedding." Slade said.

"Yeah Laurel, I know you weren't around but a year after you died the whole team was taking to Lian Yu by a guy named Adrian Chase and Oliver released Slade and he actually helped everyone." Thea said.

Laurel nodded and then they discussed their plans to deal with both Blood and Rochev. Once they were done talking Slade got up and was getting ready to leave when Oliver said "I am believing that you are the same man that was my friend on the old earth, but if you betray me, you will have to deal with all of my team."

"You don't have to worry kid and the next time that we meet, I will bring someone who will be very happy to see you." Slade said and he left Oliver's office.

"Are we sure we can trust him?" Laurel asked.

"I know I am asking a lot of you, but just give him a chance. He was a good man before the Mirakuru and Shado being killed." Oliver said.

"Ok." Laurel said.

All of a sudden Oliver's phone was ringing and he looked down to see that it was Barry calling.

"Yeah, Barry?" Oliver said.

"I was just wondering if you, Laurel and Sara could come to Central City tomorrow for the first official meeting of the Justice League?" Barry asked.

"Yeah, we will be there. What time?" Oliver asked.

"Be here at two and bring Mia too. Caitlin and I also have other news to tell you when you get here." Barry said.

"Looking forward to it. See you then." Oliver said while hanging up his phone.

"So, what did Barry want?" Laurel asked.

"He wants Sara, you, and me to come to Central City tomorrow to have the first official meeting of the Justice League." Oliver said.

"That's great. It will be good to see everyone again." Laurel said.

"Yeah, well anyways, I think we should call it a day and go home." Olive said and his wife and sister both nodded and they all left for their homes for the night.
