Despite having initially deciding to not tell Laurel about Isabel, Oliver changed his mind and told her over dinner that night.

"So, your father's old mistress stopped by the office today?" Laurel asked.

"Yeah, apparently she got booted from Stellmoor and was hoping that she could get a job at QC." Oliver said.

"But you turned her down." Laurel said.

"I'm not my father Laurel and contrary to popular belief, I don't go for anyone who looks pretty in a skirt." Oliver said.

"Anymore." Laurel pointed out.

"You're never going to let me live that down are you?" Oliver asked her and Laurel just smiled.

"What do you think?" Laurel asked.

"Anyways, that's not the only reason I refused to even allow Isabel onto my company's property again." Oliver said.

"And that is?" Laurel asked.

"Laurel, you know that if there is one thing aside from you that I trust, it's my gut and my gut is telling that something is off with Isabel, so after she left, I did some digging and found out that the reason she was fired from Stellmoor is because she tried to launch a coup and takeover the company. So I am currently working to get a meeting with Stellmoor CEO to talk about barring her from the world of business all together." Oliver said.

"That seems a bit extreme." Laurel said.

"She can't be trusted Laurel. I can't explain it, but I just, I get a bad vibe from her and she can't be trusted. She's already tried to launch one coup, who's to say she won't try to launch another." Oliver said and Laurel shrugged.

"Fair point." Laurel agreed.

"There's something about Isabel that I don't trust. Something bigger than just her being my father's mistress. She's involved in something bigger and until I know what it is, I can't have her in my company, especially since I'm fairly certain that her taste for Queen men hasn't left." Oliver said.

"So anyways, we are all set to go attend Barry and Kara's wedding right?" Laurel asked, changing the topic.

"Yeah. I still can't believe Barry asked me to be one his groomsmen." Oliver said.

"He respects you Ollie. Honestly, you two seem a lot like brothers." Laurel said and Oliver smiled.

"Yeah, he's the nerdy little brother I never wanted and yet now, I could never imagine my life without him. Him or Kara really. Those two really deserve each other." Oliver said.

"I've seen you around Kara, she's like a sister to you isn't she?" Laurel asked.

"And nothing more. She and Barry are like family to me. And there's nothing I wouldn't do for my family." Oliver said as he thought about the deal he'd made to save their lives. He was still wondering how this reality shift had affected that deal and he wondered when he'd have to pay up on it.

It turned out, his question about that was answered that night. In his dreams.

The moment his eyes closed as he fell asleep, Oliver found himself back in the Monitor's realm, dressed in his Green Arrow suit.

"What do you want?" Oliver asked.

"Simply to tell you that our deal has expired." the Monitor said.

"What?" Oliver asked.

"I told you one change required another. I believe this new reality comprised of two fused earths definitely qualifies." the Monitor said, much to Oliver's shock.

"Why did you do that?" Oliver asked.

"Because, I realized that the heroes necessary to stop the coming crisis were scattered across two earths. You brought them together and in doing so, created a new reality, one where technically, our deal was never brokered, since the Elseworlds, while they may have caused the creation of this new reality, they never actually happened in this reality." the Monitor said.

"So you basically destroyed the old reality to create this one?" Oliver asked.

"Indeed. And every world in the multiverse was affected, since the surge began on the old Earth One, the center of it. As such, the greatest heroes of the multiverse are finally together. Now it is up to you, Barry Allen and Kara Danvers to bring them together and more importantly, for you to lead them into the battle to come. You can save yourself, your friends, your family, your wife and even your child." the Monitor said.

"So, our deal is no longer in effect?" Oliver asked, thinking this was too good to be true.

"One change replaced another. Balance has been maintained. Our deal is no longer necessary, for you even changed your own fate in the crisis." the Monitor said.

"I don't want to know anything else about that, I don't care, but one thing I need to know. Do I have to go with you?" Oliver asked.

"No. You are needed more here. The heroes need a leader rally behind and that is you Mr. Queen. The others are all heroes, but you are the leader they need." The monitor said.

"Thank you." Oliver said.

"You've been given another chance at everything you've always wanted Oliver Queen. I suggest you don't waste it." the Monitor said and with a snap of his fingers, Oliver woke up and shot upwards, thinking about what he'd just heard.

"Ollie, are you okay?" the calming voice of his wife said as Oliver turned to see Laurel sitting up beside him and he smiled.

"Yeah, actually, I'm feeling better than I have in a long time." Oliver said as he kissed her, as if just to reassure himself that this was all real and things quickly escalated from there as Laurel quickly got on the same page as him, though she didn't know the real reason behind her husband's sudden burst of passion.
