After the unexpected death of her best friend, Oliver Queen, Karter Mitchell ran away from Starling City to start a new life in California, but she learns that Oliver is- perplexingly- still alive. He has spent the last five years shipwrecked on a supposedly deserted island and is now returning home. Echoing Oliver's return, a hooded vigilante has arrived and is slowly ridding Starling City of notorious criminals that have previously been untouchable to the police and other law enforcement. Strangely enough, the vigilante has taken a liking to Karter, which she reciprocates. Her curiosity gradually brings her closer and closer to him, but what happens when she gets /too/ close?

The name of the island they found us on is Lian-Yu. It's Mandarin for "Purgatory." We've been stranded here for 5 years. I've dreamt of our rescue every cold black night since then. For 5 years, we've had only one thought, one goal... survive... survive and one day return home. The island held many dangers. To live, we had to make ourself more than what we were, to forge ourself into a weapon. I am returning, not as the girl who was shipwrecked, but the woman who will bring justice to those who have poisoned our city. My name is Ashley Merlyn. [Disclaimer: I do not own Arrow. Only Ashley and her plot.] [Season 1.]
