The Return of the Queens

Chapter 18

A couple of weeks later Thea had taught Barbara everything she knew about fighting so when they were done with their last training session, Thea and Barbara walked to the lair so that they could have the nightly meeting with the team.

Once the meeting was over Thea called everyone's attention to her and said, "Some of you know that I have been training Barbara in self-defense, well I would like to say that she is done with her training and she will be able to take care of herself from now on."

"Thanks Thea, you have been great with teaching me what I need to know. I will always be grateful for this." Barbara said.

"I have a question that I need to ask you though." Thea said.

"Ok, what is it?" Barbara asked.

"Have you ever thought of being a hero like the rest of us?" Thea asked.

"Well, it would be an honor to go out in the field with y'all, but I don't know if I have what it takes to do that thought." Barbara said.

"You definitely have what it takes, and to show that we support you, we made you something." Thea said as she handed Barbara a box.

Barbara opened the box and saw that there was a suit in it. She took it out and the suit was black with a yellow bat on the chest. The suit also had yellow gloves and yellow boots. The mask was a black domino mask.

"Wow, this is awesome. I can't wait to see how it works." Barbara said.

"Don't get to far ahead of yourself. You will be out there with us but are on probation for now until we know you can take care of yourself in the field." Oliver said.

"I am fine with that. So, what are we going to do tonight?" Barbara asked.

"I wish we had some way of getting ahead of Slade so that he doesn't cause us that much trouble." Oliver said.

The all nodded in agreement, but everyone soon realized that Sara had a look on her face like she was in some sort of trance. When she finally came to, everyone was worried about her.

"What just happened to you Sara? You looked like you weren't even here?" Laurel asked.

"I don't know how to explain it but when Ollie said that about Slade it was like I had a vision." Sara said.

"What kind of vision?" Thea said.

"I saw a man in body armor with a black and orange mask and he was at the warehouse on 5th and Main." Sara said.

"Did he have any other people with him?" Oliver asked.

"He was with a man in a skull mask and it looks like Slade is giving the man in the skull mask a body of some kind of green liquid." Sara said.

"Ok, we need to get to that warehouse before this man in a skull mask can leave." Thea said.

"Let's suit up. If we can get that liquid, we can get a cure for the mirakuru." Oliver said.

"Should I call Kara and tell her to join us?" Barbara asked.

"No, but we will call her if we can't get our hands on that bottle." Oliver said and Barbara nodded.

They all left the lair and headed for the warehouse. When they got there, they saw that there were a few guards at all of the exits to the building.

"Ok, Laurel, Sara, and Barbara you three will watch the outside and make sure that no one comes for backup. Thea and I will be inside trying to get that serum." Oliver said and everyone nodded.

When Thea and Oliver took out the guards at the door, they were going to enter they then went in the warehouse and saw that Slade was about to hand the man in the skull mask a bottle of the mirakuru. They then saw the man turn to leave the building.

"Ok, the group that is outside. I need you to stop the man with the skull mask from getting away. Thea and I will engage with Slade to keep him distracted while y'all get the mirakuru." Oliver said.

"Copy that." The outside group said as Oliver and Thea went to fight Slade.

"How did you find me kid?" Slade asked as he was attacked by Oliver and Thea.

"Not exactly sure yet, but we will stop you." Oliver said.

"You got lucky last time. That will not happen again." Slade said as he started to attack the two archers.

With Slade strength, he was quickly getting the upper hand on the Green Arrow and Artemis. They heard over the comms that Laurel, Sara and Barbara had stopped the man in the skull mask and now had the mirakuru. They were having a lot of trouble while fighting Slade and he now had his sword out so the he could kill Oliver when all of a sudden, they hear someone coming into the warehouse.

As Laurel was running into the warehouse to help, she saw that her boyfriend and his sister were about to be killed. She screamed "Nooooo" at the top of her lungs but something weird happened. Soundwave came out of her mouth and the next things she knew Slade was flying backward into the wall behind him. Laurel went to help her friends up so that they could leave and get back to the lair with the mirakuru.

Once the team was back at the lair, Barbara went to start making a cure out of the serum that she had. All of the other team stood around and talked about what had happened that night.

"Ok, I am just wondering, but Sara, how did you know what was going to happen their tonight?" Oliver asked.

"I don't know. It just happened." Sara said.

"Can you do it again?" Thea asked.

"I can try." Sara said.

"Try thinking about when the cure for the mirakuru will be done." Thea said.

Sara once again was looking like she was in a trance and when she came to, she said, "It looks like it will be done in two days at nine pm. It will also be blue if you want to be that specific." Sara said.

"Ok, we will keep an eye on that until we know for sure, and Laurel, when did you get that scream of yours?" Thea asked.

"I really don't know. All I know is that I saw you two in trouble and I just screamed and that is what came out. I wish I knew where it came from. I am kind of scared now that I have this power. What if I can't control it?" Laurel asked.

"We will work on it until you know how to use it to help us do what we need to do at nights." Oliver said and Laurel smiled at him.

"Anyways this has been a hard night. Let's call it a night." Thea said and everyone left the lair to head home.

A/N: For Barbara's suit I used some of the pictures that I had seen from the comics as well as the domino mask from Batman and Robin. As for Laurel and Sara's powers, they were passed down through the family. I liked the fact that Sara could get visions from the future in Legends so I thought it would be a cool power that would help the team. I would like to think highlander 348 for helping me with these ideas as well. Hope y'all enjoyed the chapter and please leave comments.
