UPTOWN STAR CITY
Third Person
The streets begin to fill up with thugs, mercenaries and the rogue league of assassins. They all march through the streets together as the day is here. The day that Joe Wilson wins, the day that Star City is finally the land of The League Of Assassins. Joe Wilson walks in front of them as he leads the march with his army getting ready to fight with the city, and to evacuate before the explosion of the nuclear Q-Core.
As the Joe Wilson’s men continue to march, there’s a loud march coming from the front of them. Quentin Lance and Felicity lead the remaining SCPD and the citizens that had enough of the false justice that Joe has raised in the city. The city is crowded with men and women wearing police uniforms as they’re armed with their weapons.
“Maybe this is a bad idea.” Felicity whispers to Quentin as they stare at the big number of Joe Wilson’s men. Felicity and Quentin’s side is automatically outnumbered but that doesn’t stop them. Felicity stares at Joe Wilson as Joe stares back with a smirk wearing his father’s Deathstroke armor.
“Whatever it takes.” Quentin repeats to Felicity as they become confident in themselves. They have to hope to win. That’s what Drake always had and they won’t stop till they win.
“I knew you wouldn’t give up without a fight.” Joe Wilson shouts as it reaches to Felicity and Quentin. They both stand opposite sides, an entire block away from each other until they fight a blood war.

UNDERGROUND OF STAR CITY
Oliver Queen
I lay against the wall of the cell as I hear Rene sing a Spanish song to himself. Today is the day that Joe Wilson spoke about. The day that my city’s biggest fear of my Q-core becomes real. I failed my city.
I thought I was doing something right for once. I created the Q-core to help everyone. I came back to Star City from Lian You to help the city. I wanted to save my city from the corrupt, but all I did was make it worse. I brought in all these dangerous villains into my city, and made it go through its worst events in history.
I put all my loved ones in danger and lost them. I lost Tommy in the Earthquake. I lost Mom to Slade. I lost Sara and Thea to Malcolm. I lost Laurel to Damien Darhk. I brought Drake in this life and I lost him. I took away his trust, his love, and sanity. I have put everyone in danger, especially Diggle and Rene who are caged besides me like animals.
“Did you hear that?” I hear one the 13 guards with us. He turns towards the other guard and they both nod silently as they arm themselves with their riffles and slowly walk towards a doorway where Joe enters in and out of. I hear a sound of a silencer gun and somebody falls on the steps of the doorway.
“What the hell?” The men walk towards the doorway as they check the body and then a grenade is thrown from the doorway into the room and it explodes smoke. “I can’t see!?” The guard yells out as they’re panicked and I hear the sound of the silencer gun being shot multiple times. The guards begin to shoot but they fail to shoot at this mystery shooter as the silencer gun is still being used. As the smoke begins to fade away, I see the bodies of the guard men falling as their blood splatters all over the wall.
All 13 guards are taken cared of and the floor is piled with their bodies. A tall black figure with a gas mask walks out of the smoke and I see the figure with a silencer guy and platinum silver hair. I look at the mystery person confused as I don’t recognize them. 5 months trapped underground and Star city looks like they’ve gotten their new vigilante.
The smoke completely fades away and the mystery person takes off their gas mask throwing it on the floor. The platinum silver person looks at me with a smile and I recognize the person immediately.
“Hello Mr.Queen.” Silver Siren says charmingly and aims a gun at me in the cell.
“Hey!” I yell out scared not wanting him to shoot me as I know he’s came here to kill us all. But why would he kills the guards? Unless he’s not working for Joe anymore.
Silver Siren shoots at the lock and it opens as he sighs. “Does everyone on this Earth have trust issues?” He says curiously and then aims the gun at the other cells where Diggle and Rene are in. He frees those two and I get up from the floor walking towards the cell and push it open as Silver stands in the middle and I look at him confused.
“Who sent you?” I ask wanting to know why he’s doing such a heroic act. This is all so confusing, 5 months ago he looked us up here and now he’s freeing us. This has to be another trick.
“Your husband.” Silver says as Diggle and Rene get together with us. Drake isn’t dead.
“It’s really hard to believe you.” Rene says confused and Silver stands calmly not making a threatening move towards us. I look at Silver Siren and he looks at me, and I can tell he’s not playing games. He’s here because he wants to be and I begin to trust him by the look he gives me.
“If I wanted to kill you, I would’ve.” Silver says to me and I agree with him on that. I don’t know what Silver is capable of, but he took down 13 men armed with riffles down with a pistol and I respect that. “Get out to Drake before I change my mind.” Silver says becoming irritated with us and I look at the boys knowing he won’t do any harm. “The city needs their heroes more than ever right now.”
“Let’s go.” I command the boys and we quickly run out of the cave we’ve been stuck in and head to our weapons immediately.

Silver Siren
I watch the heroes go run to save their city and I turn around from them finding a space for the portal. I grab the teleporter from my pocket and set the location to travel to Earth-2. I aim the button at the air and press the button to turn on the portal. A small portal appears in the air and expands into a giant blue circle. The portal gives off a small wind of cool air and I feel the rush of wind run through my hair and body.
This is it. This is everything I’ve ever wanted. It is time to go home, to return to Papa. To return to MY life. I look at the giant blue portal continuing to feel the rush of air and I feel my mouth open up a joyful smile.
I’ve come a very long way for this opportunity. I’ve changed extremely, I am not the same person who I used to be. I’ve made bad mistakes before, but I’ve cleaned my act. A part of me knows that Slade was right about his talk about redemption. Drake was right about his saying that there’s more to me, and there is.
Maybe I can prove myself in Earth-2. Make things right, and use my set of skills for good. Or I can do it now.

UPTOWN STAR CITY
Third Person
Joe Wilson and his army stare at the Felicity and Quentin’s army as they try to intimidate each other. “This is our city!” Quentin shouts as loud as he can and it reaches to Joe. “If you want this city, you’re going to fight us.” Quentin shouts and Joe scoffs as he’s dealing with amateurs.
“Kill them. Let’s go.” Joe commands his army, and they raise their weapons. As they prepare to fire, Quentin’s SCPD aim their guns at the army. Joe stares at the police men until an arrow flies towards him and Joe quickly takes his blade and cuts it. Another arrow flies towards him from the sky again and he cuts it before it reaches him.
Joe looks at the skyline finding where the arrow came from and he spots two figures standing on two buildings opposite of each other. He spots the figure of Green Arrow, and then a figure that he can not recognize as the sun blinds him.
“Surrender!” The voice shouts through all of uptown and Joe recognizes that ability and voice. It’s Drake Lance, The goddamn Black Canary.
“Or what!” Joe shouts loudly not being afraid of two vigilantes.
“Or else.” Drake says as he pulls out a blade with the glowing green dragon on it. As he pulls it out, the entire skyline is flooded with ninjas from the League of Canaries. Joe recognizes the blade and all of the recruits from the League Of Assassins that he took unarm themselves and begin walking towards the other side, joining Quentin and Felicity.
Joe’s army population quickly declines as Drake has just stole 30% of it. Joe is outnumbered by a little from all of The League of Canaries, SCPD men, and very angry Star City citizens who just want some goddamn sleep and peace.
Joe Wilson begins to get nervous not knowing that Drake was capable of getting the blade of the Dragon. Joe knows how to get the blade and he becomes confused with how he managed to get it. What did Drake have to lose to get the blade.
Green Arrow shoots an arrow with a string attached to it, and Drake quickly jumps on it as he descends down to the street. Drake walks towards Joe Wilson and Joe does not fear Drake, but neither does Drake. Drake has power over Joe, more power than anyone can imagine.
“So tell me. What did you have to lose?” Joe asks mocking Drake as he knows it’ll trigger Drake. Joe wants to play with Drake’s emotions as he’s unaware of what was lost from him.
“Your father.” Drake tells Joe in a serious tone, and as he does Joe quickly becomes triggered instead. Joe has lost his father, the man he looked up to, the man he wanted to be. “It really sucks that his son grew up to be an asshole.” Drake mocks Joe and Joe becomes angry knowing that this can’t be the truth.
“You’re lying!” Joe shouts as he raises his blade, slamming it down on Drake. Drake quickly takes out his blade and defends himself from Joe. The blades hit each other and they make it a loud BOOM.
The war begins. Joe’s army begin to battle Drake’s Canaries, The vigilantes, and SCPD force! The battle is bloody and lives begin to be lost.
Joe and Drake begin to fight each other, and Drake uses his techniques from Nyssa and training from all his mentors to fight against Joe. Joe is unbeatable but that doesn’t stop Drake from proving that fact wrong. Drake kicks Joe and Joe escapes into the crowd as a big mercenary grabs Drake from behind.
The giant throws Drake to the ground and Drake rolls over with his blade not catching his balance. He stares at the mercenary from the floor, but then sees a bullet fly through the mercenary from behind. The giant falls to the ground dead and Silver Siren stands behind the giant taking credit for the kill as he holds on to a riffle.
“About the whole gun thing… I don’t think I feel as big as you do about it.” Silver speaks up bringing up the memory of when Drake told Silver to put away his gun months ago. Drake smiles at Silver as Silver has had a change of heart. Silver walks towards Drake and helps Drake up from the floor.
“I thought you left.” Drake says truly shocked as Drake had given everything to Silver to leave. He’d expected him to be long gone by now, to be back in Earth-2 drinking vodka in a bar back in Russia.
“I guess I’m an idiot.” Silver says with a small smirk and Drake becomes proud of him. Silver begins to shoot with his riffle and Drake begins to battle his way out of the army with his blade, kicks, and canary cry. The Green Arrow, Ollie, joins him quickly and they fight side by side helping each other out.
“Missed you.” Drake says as he throws a mercenary now on the floor.
“Its been a long 5 months without seeing your face. You look good.” Ollie teases Drake as Ollie has lost some muscle and weight. Ollie shoots arrows at the mercenaries that approach them and Drake looks at Ollie proud of him too.
“AAIEEEEEEEE.” Drake screams loudly at a crowd of the mercenaries knocking them out on the floor. “Look at us. Finally saving the world together.” Drake says realizing that this is the first time in years since they’ve done this, and the last time they’ll ever do this again. “How about we get a drink after this?” Drake says taking down other mercenaries to Ollie and Ollie chuckles.
“That sounds great.” Ollie says shooting an arrow at a mercenary heading towards Drake. Drake smiles and they continue to fight. “How do you feel about Donna’s?”
“It’s perfect.”
“Can you both save it for later!” Silver Siren shoots the men down and becomes quickly irritated by their flirty conversation.
As they all continue to fight, Drake spots Joe getting on to a giant truck with a container and Ollie and Silver spot him too. “He’s getting away with the Q-core.” Ollie says as he shoots a tracker arrow at the container.
“You think you can shoot us to the truck?” Drake asks Ollie as they’ve taken most of the men around them down.
“Watch.” Ollie says as he takes out an arrow with string attached to it and Drake holds on to Ollie, wrapping himself around him tightly. Ollie quickly shoots the arrow at the container and they both fly through the streets reaching on to the truck container. They both hide on top of it as Joe and the mercenary driver he’s with doesn’t notice their presence.
