Sorry for the delay, but for right now, you probably should not expect updates from me as frequently as usual, though I will still be updating, it will just take longer than usual.
"Uh, Oliver, I think you should see this." Winn said.
"What is it?" Oliver asked.
"Records of a murder committed while you and Laurel were off time travelling." Winn said.
"Okay and while that is something to feel bad about, why are you bringing it to my attention?" Oliver asked as Winn brought up the coroner's report.
"Because of the victim was Owen Post." Winn said and now Oliver was on full alert, though he didn't show it.
"Who's that?" Oliver asked.
"According to a lot of digging, he was Cayden James's son." Winn said.
"Do you know who killed him?" Oliver asked.
"Not yet, but the interesting thing is that the weapon used was an arrow." Winn said.
"Likely someone trying to frame me for Owen's death to James against us. We need to find proof that I didn't kill him before James tries to make a move on the city." Oliver said.
"I'm already on it." Winn said.
"Good. I don't want to even imagine the damage Cayden could do." Oliver said.
"He's just a hacker." Winn said.
"But you forget that practically everything is run by computers these days. He could kill countless people in the city." Oliver reminded Winn.
"Fair point. I just hope we have some time." Winn said.
"So do I." Oliver said, though he knew that their time was quickly running out.
Cayden James was currently sitting in a diner out in Keystone, trying to keep a low profile. The only reason he was out at all was because the people who'd arranged to have him broken out of Argus custody had asked to meet with him in person and Cayden was a man who paid his debts.

"Mr. James. It's a pleasure to meet you." a male Australian voice said as Cayden looked up to see two tall dark haired gentlemen approach him.
"I take it that you two are the ones I have to thank for my freedom?" Cayden asked as the two men sat down on the opposite side of the booth from him.
"Yes. My name is Kane Wolfman." Kane said.
"Also known as Joe Wilson. I'm assuming that this is your brother Grant." Cayden said.
"How do you know that?" Grant asked.
"I make it my business to know shady and despicable characters. They could come in handy." Cayden said.
"Fair enough." Kane said.
"So, can I ask why you helped me escape?" Cayden asked.
"Unfortunately, it was because we knew Argus would never tell you." Kane said.
"Tell me what?" Cayden asked.
"Mr. James, I'm sorry, but a few days before we liberated you, your son Owen Post was killed."Grant said.
"What?" Cayden asked, desperately hoping it wasn't true.
"I'm sorry, but it's true. Here's proof." Kane said as he showed Cayden the video.
"This looks like." Cayden said.
"Like your son was collateral damage in a fight with the Green Arrow." Grant said.
"And he will pay dearly for it." Cayden said.
"We'll help you in any way that we can." Grant said.
"Thank you, but if you'll excuse me, I have to go." Cayden said as he got up and left, not seeing the identical grins on the brothers' faces.
"Phase one complete. We won't even need to lift a finger." Kane said.
"Time to move on to Phase two." Grant said.
"This will be fun." Kane said with a grin.
