"So, did you find him?" Laurel asked Winn when she entered the lair.
"No, he disabled the the GPS in his suit and I can't bring it back online." Winn said.
"What is he thinking." Laurel asked.
"I don't know, but he's been acting weird ever since you told him about that cop murder." Winn said.
"Weird how?" Laurel asked.
"He asked me to look into a criminal already incarcerated in Arkham Asylum and didn't believe it until he actually saw him in a cell." Winn said.
"Call the others and see if Sara can get Alex to give us access to the Argus satellites. We need to find Oliver and talk some sense into him." Laurel said.
"I think we both know that you're the one he's most likely to listen to." Winn said.
"True, but still. We can cover more ground." Laurel said and Winn nodded as Laurel went to suit up.
Green Arrow was standing on the building across from the precinct. He needed to get his hands on that throwing star that was used to kill Conahan.
However, before he can could make a move, he found his feet frozen to the ground.
"What took you so long?" Green Arrow asked as he turned to see Black Canary, White Canary, Frostbite and Arsenal standing in front of him.
"It's a big city and you turned off your tracker." Black Canary said.
"What are you doing outside the SCPD Ollie?" Frostbite asked.
"Getting what I need to find this killer." Green Arrow said.
"The murder weapon?" White Canary asked.
"It's the only lead we have and no offense to your father, but we can do this more effectively then he can." Green Arrow said.

"Keyword being we. That means all of is Oliver. Not just you. You maybe our team's leader, but we're still a team." Arsenal reminded him.
"I know." Green Arrow said.
"Then why did you come here alone? Or at all. I'm mayor, I can find a way to get us that intel or Sara could use her FBI cover. There are other ways we can get what we need besides breaking and entering. Right now Pollard is trying to get me to pass an anti vigilante legislation. So far I've been able to stall her, but if you break into the SCPD and steal evidence, the rest of the city council will back her and I don't have the pull yet to stop it." Black Canary said as Green Arrow sighed, knowing she was right.
"You're right. But when I realized that unlike Darhk, Church and Slade, he had no intel on this guy, I freaked out. Even with Merlyn, we had an idea of what we were trying to do. This guy, we know nothing about." Green Arrow said as Frostbite unfroze his feet.
"Hey, so we're starting from scratch this time. It doesn't matter. We'll find this guy and stop him." Black Canary said as she walked up to him.
"I know. And I'm sorry I went solo like this. And that is one of the only apologies I will ever give any of you about the decisions I make in this area of our lives, so take it." Green Arrow said and the others all laughed at that, though they knew he was serious.
"So, can we go home now?" Black Canary asked.
"Yes, we can. Tomorrow, we'll regroup and come up with a real plan to stop this guy." Green Arrow said.

"Sounds good to me." Frostbite said as they all headed back, unaware that someone had been watching them the whole time.
"So, you think you can stop me Oliver. Well then, let it begin." the unknown figure said as he put down his binoculars and turned away from the sight in front of him.
"Hey, you sure you're okay?" Laurel asked Oliver as she exited their bathroom, drying her hair from her shower before moving over to join him in their bed.
"Yeah, I am, thanks to you. Reminding me that I'm not in this alone. A reminder I have a feeling I'm going be needing a lot in the future. I'm always gonna want to put myself in danger to protect the people I love. Especially you." Oliver said as he caressed her face with his hand.
"I know. It's one of the things I love most about you." Laurel said with a smile.
"But, at the same time, that desire to protect you guys, it can make me want to go in alone. Make it so I'm the only one who's in danger and when I do that, I forget that I'm not the only who's affected by that choice. Just like how I know that if something were to happen to any of you it would hurt me like crazy, if something happened to me." Oliver said.
"We'd react the exact same way Ollie. Love is a two way street. And if you need a reminder of that every now and then, well, I'm happy to be the one to do it. After all, till death do us part right?" Laurel reminded him.
"Hopefully not for a very long time though." Oliver said.
"And the best way to make sure that it isn't for a long time. Don't go in alone. Ollie, you're the strongest person I've ever met. But forget, this team, this family we have, we make each other stronger. That includes you." Laurel said as Oliver smiled.
"I know. And I wouldn't have it any other way." Oliver said as he kissed her and Laurel smiled as she kissed him back.

Divine Progress
Progress is a dubious god. After failing him, three people are banished from modern times and sent to another world.

Branded as a demon, he must fight for survival while battling the servants of the god who sent him there, struggling against the 'gift' that Progress bestowed upon him and the past he sought to abandon. Can he make his way across the lands and gather enough strength to survive without the blessings of the Divine? Or will the gods bend him to their will, breaking him if he seeks to resist? This is not a short story, and the plot will take many twists and turns before Christoph's journey comes to a close. After all, it is not the destination, but the Progress that matters in the end.
